69. Ill-intentioned
Replace within half an hour.
After eating and drinking, Xiao Hanyu burped contentedly. At this time, Han Jue seemed to have become accustomed to this girl's words and deeds that were different from ordinary people, so he didn't return her a string of "......".
At the same time, the two quickly became acquainted. Han Jue took out a pot of wine out of nowhere and handed it to Xiao Hanyu, saying that he had drunk some to moisten his throat. Xiao Hanyu had drunk wine a few years ago, and under the dry mouth, she did not refuse, and after thanking the young man, she took the wine jug and raised her head to drink a few sips.
The taste was a little strange, and when the wine first entered her throat, she didn't feel anything special, and it took a stick of incense before she began to feel that her entire chest and lower abdomen were filled with a burning heat.
"Brother Han, what kind of wine is this?"
"I brewed it myself, don't worry, I'm not drunk."
The girl looked at him with wide eyes.
"I didn't expect Brother Han to make wine, it's amazing."
"Poor, so I'm self-sufficient."
ββ¦β¦β
As soon as the other party said this, whether it was intentional or not, Xiao Hanyu had to be more thoughtful.
It is true that this Han Jue and her were just a meeting in Pingshui, but he kindly pulled her to the shore, carried her into the mountains and forests, and gave her game to eat, so to speak, he can be called her savior-since he is her father-in-law, then she should think of repaying him?
Xiao Hanyu looked up at the sky and counted several postures to repay her gratitude in her heart. Ahem, what she means - to make a personal promise, impossible, she tried her best to escape from the palace, but not to find a man she didn't like to marry; It is impossible for him to be a high-ranking official, and now that she has abandoned the noble status of princess and princess, it is impossible for her to hold such power. Therefore, the most direct and easiest way is to give him money.
But...... Now she is also poor, except for a pair of jade bracelets given by Li Wujian and stingy, she has nothing to grow!
Yes, it's not that she's stingy, it's just that she has nothing to rely on, and for the sake of long-term thinking in the future, she really can't casually give the only entanglement generously.
Or...... Belch...... Or give him one? The other, she kept, was always enough to last for a while. When she finds a way to make money, she doesn't have to hold on to the remaining jade bracelet.
Seeing the girl looking on her back and looking contemplative, Han Jue thought that she was probably minding her words.
Hooking the corners of his lips without a trace, the man opened his mouth coldly and said, "Miss Han, what are you going to do next?" Do you want to go home and get justice from your sister? β
Before the words fell, Xiao Hanyu had suddenly returned to her soul, she suddenly looked at the man who was asking, and immediately entered the play: "No, anyway, that home doesn't have a place for me to settle down, since my sister personally sent me out of there, I simply accepted her kindness and wandered the world from now on." β
The girl's expression when she said this was so desolate that Han Jue was about to believe it. However, she really didn't want to go back.
The man muttered for a moment without a ripple, then raised his eyes and said, "Is there a place for that girl?" β
Xiao Hanyu pulled away from the fugue posture of "the sky is vast and the wilderness is vast", shook his head at the man, and added: "Maybe go in the southeast direction, I heard that the scenery there is picturesque and outstanding, I want to go and see it." β
The girl said ambiguously, because she couldn't tell the other party her whereabouts lightly, in case she accidentally was seen by him, wouldn't it be a waste of her efforts?
Yes, in order to prevent the exposure of suspended animation, Xiao Hanyu's mind is still very clear.
However, she didn't expect that after her answer, Han Jue suddenly said: "What a coincidence, I am also preparing to go to the southeast, if the girl doesn't mind, why don't you and I go together?" β
Xiao Hanyu was involuntarily stunned, looking at him and smiling.
"You are a girl's family, you are not familiar with the place, so you are alone, are you not afraid of meeting any bad people?"
Uh, this one does. So, is the world really not as rosy as she expected?
"As for me, I don't have any big skills, but it's more than enough to deal with a hooligan, a bandit or something." Han Jue was neither humble nor arrogant about his own ability, and a pair of peach blossom eyes suddenly revealed a little playful light, "And, according to my observation, Miss Han, you are quite able to eat, the pheasant and hare I roasted just now should be quite your appetite, right?" β
Thinking of the delicious food that he had served to himself before, Xiao Hanyu couldn't help but nodded, and completely ignored the comment "You can eat it".
"Yes. You see, I can make wine, I can hunt, I can roast chicken, in fact, I can also make dim sum, I can cook, I think my craft is pretty good. If Miss Han is with me, I can guarantee you that you will have no worries about three meals. β
Xiao Hanyu swallowed his saliva without temperament, and various delicacies seemed to have appeared in front of him.
But, wait.
Putting away the wavering look that had already been revealed, the girl asked solemnly: "Brother Han, you are so capable, then, what can I do for you?" β
Han Jue smiled knowingly.
It seems that this girl is not without the slightest sense of defense. At least, she knows very well that there are not so many lunches in the world that don't cost money.
"To tell you the truth, although I can fight and cook, I am not very good at those jobs other than filling my stomach."
"For example?"
"For example, I don't like to do laundry, and I don't know how to mend sewing."
This is normal, anyway, he's a big man.
"What do you do when your clothes are dirty or torn?"
"Sometimes I wash it casually, and sometimes I just throw it away and get a new one."
ββ¦β¦β
"But it's too expensive. I can only ask myself to be lucky, I meet a kind-hearted lady or girl, wash and sew for me, and I can continue to wear it. β
"Okay......"
"Therefore, if Miss Han is willing, you will be responsible for taking care of my daily life, helping me sew and mend, wash and dry, etc., and you will be considered to pay me for protecting you and providing three meals a day. What does the girl think? β
Xiao Hanyu pursed her lips and thought seriously.
Washing and sewing clothes, she is good at this, after all, she has been doing this job since she was a child, and she will definitely be able to meet Han Jue's needs. On the other hand, it is indeed much safer to have a martial arts escort than to go on the road alone. The most important thing is that this person is still a tinkering eater, which is really a temptation for her.
It's better to do it like this, she walked with him all the way, and when the right time came, they parted ways.
Thinking like this, Xiao Hanyu agreed with a smile. The two reached an agreement, walked into a small town together, and quickly changed into the wet and dirty clothes. Seeing that Han Jue took the initiative to pay for the clothes and took her to settle down in a small inn, Xiao Hanyu was embarrassed, and promised to pay him back when she earned the money in the future, while taking the initiative to wash his dirty clothes.
Seeing this, the man did not stop him, but when he found out that the girl suddenly burned her beautiful white dress in the backyard, he couldn't help but ask the reason curiously.
"Miss Han, I don't have a lot of silver on me, I think this dress is pretty good, why don't you wash it and keep it for replacement?"
Hearing this, Xiao Hanyu felt that Han Jue was a person who could live. Pity......
"Because of bad luck? Didn't Brother Han think it looked like a shroud? My sister, she did it on purpose, yes, no matter how valuable this dress is, I don't want to ask for it anymore. β
That's right, from today onwards, she wants to say goodbye to the pastβcompletely, to that period of palace life.
