Chapter Eighty-Eight: Sister
The next day, after everyone had breakfast together, Xiao Nan returned to the courtyard where he lived, and Xun Yue quickly followed alone.
Xiao Nan didn't know why this little girl was so clingy to herself, but he also liked this child a lot.
The two chatted for a while, the little girl told him something about Xunjiabao, and when she talked about the fact that she had a very powerful spirit beast in Xunjiabao, Xiao Nan thought of the little worm that had left him for a long time, and Lu Yiying's moon-striped snake.
"I haven't thought about them for a few days. Xiao Nan whispered in his heart, but when he thought of this, his heart felt like he had been pricked by a needle. He didn't think about it because he was afraid to think about it.
At about nine o'clock, Gongsun Yan and Fan Xiao also came here together, Gongsun Lian's injuries were slightly better, but he was still on bed rest, Xun Qi may not have come because of his age.
Several servants followed them with two large chests.
"Brother Xiao, this is some of the caution of our Gongsun family and the Fan family, I hope you accept it. Fan Xiao walked in front of several people.
Xiao Nan looked at the open box, which was filled with shiny gold, as well as two small boxes on the table, each box contained ten spirit stones and ten body spirit stones, and the two boxes totaled forty.
"Can I not accept it?" Xiao Nan said after looking around at a few people.
"Brother Xiao, you and Senior Xun Qi, as well as Miss Xiaoyue, have saved us all, I hope you will accept this little thing. Fan Xiao said very sincerely.
Xiao Nan nodded, then got up and took a piece of gold from each of the two large boxes, then sat down again and said, "I'll take these two pieces of gold enough, and you can move the rest back." ”
But the gift-giver's firm belief in gift-giving eventually prevailed over Xiao Nan.
was served like a guest, which made Xiao Nan seem to return to his original world.
All day long, he was led by Fan Xiao and Yao Kui to wander around the city, and the places he went to were the most high-grade places in Anqing City.
Watching the drama and listening to the music, the Qinglou restaurant, Xiao Nan also had a comfortable and enjoyable time.
There are some places where it is inconvenient for a few girls to follow, but Xun Yue's little girl doesn't care so much.
No matter where she goes, she is like a little follower, sticking to Xiao Nan's side, others are not easy to say, Xiao Nan is also happy to have her with her, just like a little sister who is doted on by herself.
Unconsciously, Xiao Nan stayed in this grandson's house for seven or eight days, and in the evening, Xiao Nan returned to his residence, and was about to meditate and practice, when the little girl flashed in again.
"Xiao Nan, why don't you put away the gifts they gave you?" Xun Yue asked when he saw that the few boxes they sent from Gongsun Yan and them last time had been left in place.
"I really don't want to accept it, they have already suffered, and they still give such a big gift. ”
"You just take it, if you don't accept it, their hearts will not be at ease, not to mention that they are all big families with a history of hundreds of years in Anqing City, and this little thing is nothing. ”
"Well, then I'll take this gold, and you can help me take these two boxes of spirit stones. ”
"What do I want your spirit stones for? They were given to you. ”
"You've been following me all day, and you're tired, and I feel uneasy if I don't give you something, not to mention that you also sent me some delicious snacks. ”
"I'm following you, are you annoyed?" Xun Yue asked with big emerald eyes.
Xiao Nan reached out and stroked her golden hair lovingly, then smiled and picked up the two boxes on the table and handed them to her.
"You'd better keep it for yourself, I'm never short of spirit stones. ”
"But I want to give it to you. ”
"Okay, I'll take it. After the little girl took it and put it into the storage jade, she continued: "I tell you, it will be my birthday in a while, fifteen years old, and this will be your birthday gift to me." ”
"How long is it left, how do you want to celebrate your birthday?"
"In a few months, I will go back to Xunjiabao, and my father and sister will help me prepare the birthday party, every year. ”
"It's going to be a lot of fun. Xiao Nan replied casually, thinking, "It's really childlike, so like birthdays? ”
"As far as the people in my family are concerned, I'm not too old to hold a grand banquet. Xun Yue wanted to say that I was a child, but she temporarily changed her words and said that she was not big.
"When I celebrate my birthday, I will definitely invite you to go, and I will accept all your gifts. She looked at Xiao Nan again and said with a smile.
"I'd like to go, but it's too far. Xiao Nan showed a helpless expression.
"You dare not go, you agreed to go to Xunjiabao to play, I convinced you that day, I ...... I treat you as a good friend, and you still talk back. ”
"I'll go, I'll go, anyway, I won't suffer if I eat your house and live in your house. ”
"It's really ugly for you to speak, but you said you were going to go again, don't regret it, I told Uncle Seven, I want to take you with me when I go home this time." ”
It had been a few days since he set off for Xunjiabao, and what Xiao Nan didn't expect was that the team that went with him was very large, not to mention hundreds of carriages full of goods, and there were more than 2,000 people in the miscellaneous guards who escorted the goods.
"This is all going to be sent to your Xunjia Fort?" Xiao Nan asked Yue softly.
"Well, this is not much, there are hundreds of cities in the east, and the medicinal materials collected are all collected to our Xunjiabao, and then refined into pills by Xunjiabao and transported to various places, and the best pills are mainly transported to Jingcheng and exchanged for spirit stones. Xun Yue's explanation is serious.
From Xun Yue's mouth, Xiao Nan learned that the pills refined by Xunjiabao were the best in the Chongyang Continent, better than those of the four major sects, and there were also some high-grade pills that only Xunjiabao had the ability to refine.
"Then your Xunjiabao must be very rich. Xiao Nan waited for her to finish with an arrogant face.
"Of course, Xunjiabao has been in the Wuman Forest for thousands of years, but we are unwilling to set foot in the west, and our strength is not weaker than the four major sects. ”
"It turns out that you are the little princess of Xunjiabao, let me mess with you, is it okay to be your little minion?"
Xun Yue glanced at him, "You won't listen to me." ”
"By the way, I want to ask you something, why do they have to use such a huge convoy to transport these medicinal materials, isn't it more convenient and faster to use the stored jade?" Xiao Nan asked the little girl as he looked at the convoy that was ready to go and meandered on the road like a dragon.
"There are also those that are transported with stored jade, which are all quite powerful family sects that dare to do that, and those who are slightly weaker, although they also have stored jade, they dare not take risks, the value of stored jade is many times higher than the value of the goods transported, if it is robbed and lost by robbers, then the loss will be great. ”
"How precious is the stored jade?" Xiao Nan asked curiously.
"I don't know much about this, but the worst one is worth more than a thousand high-grade spirit stones, this kind of storage space for storing jade is not large, and at most it can only fit a carriage of things. Storage is powerful, and the price is difficult to estimate. ”
After Xun Yue finished speaking, Xiao Nan nodded with understanding, remembering that he had also given four storage jades to people, and there should be a few storage jades in his dragon ball, "I didn't expect that I was still a very rich person." Xiao Nan had some smug thoughts.
"Let's get in the car too. Fan Xiao on the side pointed to the wide carriage in front of the door.
"Well, you go and inform the convoy in front of you, it's time to go. Gongsun Lian instructed a man behind him, and the man left.
"Lian'er, you must take care of yourself, and you must also ensure your sister's safety. A tall woman took Gongsun Lian's arm and said, "She is Gongsun Lian's mother."
"Mother, don't worry, I'll be careful, there are so many people, and I have picked a lot of dart masters who are not weak, and nothing will happen. ”
There were dozens of people who saw them off, all of whom were the elders and family members of Gongsun Lian and Fan Xiao, and they had been telling them thousands of times. After all, the road is long, and even if the journey is smooth, it will take nearly four months to reach Xunjiabao in the Wuman Forest.
The carriage began to move slowly, and the crowd of people seeing them off gradually dispersed, and the carriage, especially several women, were a little excited about this long journey, chattering and laughing.
Less than an hour into the work, the carriage suddenly stopped.
"What's going on? Why did you stop?" was Gongsun Lian's deep voice, and he sat in the carriage in front of him.
"Young master, the carriage in front has stopped, and I don't know what happened in front. A man replied.
"Let's go down and have a look. Yao Kui, who was sitting opposite Xiao Nan, opened the car door.
Xun Yue and Gongsun Yan, who were sitting on Xiao Nan's side, also got off the carriage one after another.
"What's going on?" Yao Kui asked with a stunned look at Gongsun Lian.
"I don't know, the convoy in front of me has stopped. Gongsun Lian looked dazed.
Everyone looked at the winding convoy in front of them for a long time, and suddenly saw a team of people and horses coming in the dust.
The team of knights was getting closer and closer, and suddenly Xiao Nan felt Xun Yue beside him pull his sleeve, and then saw her jumping and jumping, and her mouth was also shouting excitedly.
"Oh, it's my sister, oh my God, it's my sister, my sister is here. ”
Xun Yue ran to the front and waved her hand, "Sister, sister, sister......." ”
This group of more than 100 people on horses stopped in front of Xiao Nan and them.
A woman at the front, floating down from a horse, tall and slender, the yellow, soft and flexible leather suit is perfectly wrapped around her body, and some of the ties on the clothing are also made of leather, which adds to the woman's heroic spirit and aura.
"This woman's figure is perfect, a masterpiece of the world cast in golden proportions. Xiao Nan thought to himself, "It's really weird, the women I know in this world are all first-class figures." Master Ye Peizhi, as well as Lu Yiying, Wei Shuangling, including Shan Tingting, Zhou Qing, and Xun Yue, Gongsun Yan, and Miao Jing in front of them, have nothing to be picky about. ”
In terms of figure alone, Xun Yue's sister seems to be more eye-catching, probably because her dress can highlight the beauty of women in this regard. ”
Xiao Nan was still muttering about this, and Xun Yue and her sister had already hugged each other and walked over to them.
"Sister, why are you here? What's the matter? No matter what you do, I'm going to follow you this time. ”
"It's something, I'll tell you later. Her voice was soft, and she looked at her sister, her green eyes full of soft love, and her melon seed face, and her facial features were distributed in the most perfect way on her fair face. A head of brilliant blonde hair was braided at first, and then fell over her straight back.
"Sister, this is Gongsun Lian of the Gongsun family, and this is Fan Xiao's ...... of the Fan family. ”
Xun Yue introduced them one by one, her sister nodded one by one, and the person who was introduced also saluted respectfully, and then called "Miss".
