426: Take it to heart

Sometimes it was too boring, so Nalan Jinxiu got out of the carriage and sat on the other end of the carriage. Looking at the scenery, or looking at the people in front of and behind you, you can be considered to have something to do.

It's not proper to change to normal. But now she wears men's clothes, and with these ordinary people, she doesn't pay so much attention to it, and she still comes as comfortable as she wants.

Who knew that not long after she came out, Li Yang began to talk to her. That's when she realized that although he seemed to be quite bored and didn't talk much, he had some interesting experiences that she wanted people to listen to.

So the two chatted for most of the day. Until Sister Nalan felt her mouth dry and coughed twice to suppress the itching in her throat. Li Yang untied the kettle from his waist and handed it to her.

Nalan Jinxiu thought, I don't know how long it will be until the next place where he can hit the point, and he seems to be just such a small pot of water, if he drinks it, then what will he drink?

She hesitated for a moment, and Li Yang patted the other side of her waist again. Only then did Nalan Jinxiu see a large, flat leather kettle hanging on his side.

When she was in the northern Xinjiang, she had seen An Shi hanging such a thing around her waist, but it was filled with spirits. The climate in northern Xinjiang is cold and cold, and sometimes during the march, spirits will be used to keep warm. This kind of thing is rare in Jinling.

"It's my water, this kettle is newly bought, I haven't used it once, and the owner can drink it with confidence. Mu Li saw that she still didn't move, and explained.

Nalan Jinxiu slowly took the kettle and took a sip. She thinks that Li Yang is a little too good to herself? Although she used to be his owner, she was quite generous to him, and she gave him a lot of silver, so it was not difficult for him.

However, the relationship did not last long. If it is said that there is a master-servant relationship, it should not be deep, at least she thinks that it will not let him treat her like this.

Since she suffered a loss to Zong Xuanyi in her previous life, she has become very defensive of people. I always feel that it is impossible in the world, and someone will be good to you for no reason. Even if that person is good-natured, it must be just a gesture.

Li Yang seems to be thinking about her everywhere, from finding her a carriage, to talking to her on the road, to the special kettle in his hand now, everywhere reveals his intentions.

This made her have to suspect that he had a plan. But what purpose can he have for her? Could it be that he fell in love with her skin? This is understandable, who made Xu Jinsheng look beautiful and beautiful, I feel sorry for her.

Although she can be said to be familiar with pretending to be a man, and basically will not show flaws, Li Yang knew that she was a daughter before. I can't say that this is the idea that I will fight again. Otherwise, she couldn't have imagined why he was good to himself?

In fact, as of now, Nalan Jinxiu is not so good at hiding his emotions. So her movements to drink water were very slow, and the whole person looked preoccupied.

Mu Li looked at her sideways, and saw that as soon as she met his gaze, something flashed in his eyes. He is not a smart person, and he is definitely not wooden, the county lord must have something in mind.

He didn't think that he had lost his temper at all, the only thing that was abnormal was that he was too good to her!

In fact, he did the same to her before, but at that time, her identity was different, she was the county lord, and he was her personal guard, so it was reasonable for her to consider this.

And now it's different. They don't seem to have such a deep friendship, and if he does this to others, he must be suspected by the county lord of having bad intentions. This made him feel a little funny inexplicably.

He really wanted to tell her his identity, but he felt that if he did, she would definitely feel pressure. Maybe she will ask him why he went all the way to Jinling, why he wants to go back to northern Xinjiang now, he can't say that all this is a coincidence.

There is no such coincidence in the world. If the county lord knew his true identity, he would definitely know that he was doing this for her. He was afraid that she would be pressured to find out and then alienate him.

Anyway, with what he knew about the county lord, she would definitely do it. So he secretly warned himself in his heart that he must be cold to her in the future, otherwise he would show that he was greedy for money.

"The proprietor should know that I am a lonely person, I have lived a hard life since I was a child, and I don't have much money in my hands. I saved a little when I was growing medicinal herbs before, but I haven't found a suitable job for the past few months, so I don't have much money on me. If the proprietor wants to thank me, why don't you reward me with a little money!"

Nalan Jinxiu's heart, which had been slipping for a long time, finally fell back into his body. She put the kettle away and pulled out her handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe the water from her mouth. But I found that I didn't bring it, so I had to wipe it with my sleeve. When you're away from home, you can't be too particular.

"It's okay, as long as we can all reach the northern frontier safely, the silver will definitely not be missing you. ”

Mu Li nodded and began to concentrate on driving the carriage.

In the next few days, Nalan Jinxiu felt that his attitude seemed to have changed a little. In the past, he always took the initiative to provide her with this and that, but now if she hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, he wouldn't have considered her at all.

He wondered if it was because he had just made empty promises to give people money but didn't keep them. People don't know how much she can give at that time, so naturally they won't be so concerned.

So she took out a few pieces of broken silver and handed them to you Mu Li, and said lightly: "I think you should have been wandering outside for a long time, and you seem to be quite handy at what you do." This money is given to you, when you need to buy something, you can buy it directly, if it's not enough, you care about me, and the two of us will spend as much as I want along the way. ”

Nalan Jinxiu thought that Pu Shaozi gave her so much money, it shouldn't be bad. Anyway, she has also observed Li Yang in the past few days, and he is indeed a person with very little expenses. So it shouldn't cost much.

When Mu Li heard what she said, he felt that what he said was really arrogant, and then looked at the few poor pieces of broken silver lying in the palm of his hand, he really couldn't help but want to laugh.

In the past, he felt that the county lord was very stingy, except for being very generous in buying medicinal materials and medical books, other expenses were always budget-conscious. Every time, she said that she could buy a lot of medicine by saving money that she shouldn't use, and with these medicines, she could save a lot of poor people.

He didn't have many women in contact, and even the closest one was the county lord. He doesn't know if there are many women in this world who are so kind. But he knew very well in his heart that what touched him the most was indeed this kindness.

Nalan Jinxiu saw that he was distracted when he looked at Yinzi, and the curvature of his mouth was a little suspicious no matter how he looked at it. It was as if he was laughing at her. But if it's a mockery, it doesn't seem to be a joke, but the corner of his lips is really hard to explain.

"We're out there now, and we can't show our money, so when you buy something or something, you have to buy cheap things, and you must remember to bargain. ”

Nalan Jinxiu has never been outside since the previous life. Although every time she goes out, Zong Xuanyi will arrange it for her, and take care of her meticulously. But she also observes passers-by to see how other people are doing. So now this is not new to her.

Mu Li put away the silver and said in a cold voice: "There should be a place to rest not far ahead, tell me what you need." ”

"You buy a few notebooks, and buy some dried fruits!"

Nalan Jinxiu thought that the journey was too boring, she couldn't always chat with him! Although the two of them were masters and servants in each other's hearts, they were lonely men and widows after all, and it was always not good to be too close.

Now she's wearing men's clothes, so no one talks about it. However, if you wear women's clothing, you will be pointed at. And she herself is not used to it.

Mu Li nodded, in fact, he also saw that she was bored, and he was already planning to buy her books and dried fruits or something to pass the time. But it was not easy for him to express it directly, lest the county lord think that he coveted her. So it's safer for her to say it herself.

Mu Li really took every word of Nalan Jinxiu to heart, and she said that she wanted a notebook. He didn't know which one she liked, so he went around the whole street and bought a lot.

As for dried fruits, I bought some of them in every store. Then I thought that I hadn't paid attention to which one she liked to eat before, and I had to remember it this time. Next time, you won't be confused.

So everyone has been on the road for so long, and they are too tired to rest. He's the only one still shopping. Now it is already some distance from Jinling City, and the further you go to the north of Xinjiang, the colder it becomes.

Because it could not be too special, there was no felt on the outside of the carriage, and there was no good fur in the carriage. In this case, she would definitely feel cold when she was alone in the carriage.

So he bought some mats, a thin quilt and a small stove. You can put a kettle on top of the small stove and boil some boiling water or something.

He thought that the further he went to the north would become, the more desolate it would be, and with so many people in the caravan, hot water would definitely be scarce. The county lord's health was not very good, so he naturally couldn't stand the cold anymore. Be sure to have hot water for her.

And the stove he bought was so small that it could be put in the compartment. He also bought some smokeless charcoal, which they usually use, but it is very rare in such a small place.

He went to the biggest shop on the street, and the boss rummaged through it for a long time before he found a small bag. And he told him that this charcoal is very precious, and it is resistant to burning without any smoke. When you can't use it up, you can soak it in water, then dry it, and use it the next time you make a fire.

Mu Li also thought that this carbon really had to be used sparingly, because the amount was too small......
