Three days later, one morning, Song Xinshu and Su Qing took Wu Xiuyuan and Aja and rented a carriage to go to Jinling City, while Song Liangmin, Lin Guifen, and the two elder brothers temporarily lived in Su Qing's house first, and then joined the city when she was settled.

It was already afternoon when it was still fifty miles away from Jinling City, but I could still see excellent wheat fields planted on both sides of the road, and some small farm yards. This is also the first time that Song Xinshu has left Baixi Village, she will look back behind her from time to time, and she doesn't know if she is dazzled, she always feels that someone has been following them.

"What are you looking at?" Su Qing looked at her solemn face and asked with concern.

"I always feel that there are people behind me all the time......," Song Xinshu said.

Su Qing glanced back and said, "Don't worry about it, you're tired from the journey, rest early." ”

Song Xinshu looked back a few more times, but didn't find any suspicions, so he didn't pay attention to it anymore, maybe he had thought too much about it in the past two days.

……

Jinling City arrived, as soon as you entered the city gate, you could see the lively and bustling street market, Song Xinshu opened the carriage curtain, and was happy in his heart, finally arrived, a big city is a big city, the streets are full of people, and the blueprint in his heart can be displayed.

Su Qing looked at Song Xinshu's joy in his heart, and he felt a little happy because he was in a heavy mood.

Now that I have arrived in Jinling, the next step is to find a place to live and settle down. However, the house in Jinling City is not cheap, and a peasant girl like Song Xinshu naturally can't afford it, so she can only rent a small house for a few days, and then change the mansion to make money later.

They chose a dilapidated small mansion in the middle of the way, but the price was not cheap, after all, Jinling City was also an inch of land, and the rent of this small mansion had to cost ten taels of silver a year.

After settling down and cooking the food and vegetables he brought, the day was almost over.

After the meal, Song Xinshu wanted to go to the street to buy some household goods, so he pulled Su Qing out.

When she arrived on the street, Su Qing's face seemed to be slightly restrained, which made Song Xinshu a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing, maybe I'm a little tired from traveling today." Su Qing explained.

Hearing him say this, Song Xinshu didn't ask much, and at this time, some street vendors appeared in front of him.

"Pastries! Freshly made and sold! Check it out! ”

"Persian baked cakes, come, do you want to taste them?"

“……”

Song Xinshu only felt familiar when he looked at such a scene, and thought that it was simply a modern version of the food street! She took Su Qing's hand and went straight to the past who claimed to be a Persian baked cake, and she also wanted to see how it tasted.

"Bring me a piece!" Song Xinshu spoke, and the vendor looked at her and the tall Su Qing beside her, and then became more earnest, "Okay! ”

While being a hawker, he continued: "Miss, I don't sound like you're from Jinling with your accent! Now the world is not peaceful, the Hu people in the north are always offending, and it is not easy to eat my Persian baked cakes! ”

It seems that this peddler is still chattering? But Song Xinshu found that Su Qing's face seemed to be a little gloomy, and before she could speak, suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves on the street!

Everyone avoided in panic, and before Song Xinshu could react, the whole person was taken aside by Su Qing's belt, this was the first time she felt Su Qing's kung fu so truly, and she couldn't help but feel a shock in her heart, her husband was really good!

Immediately after a commotion on the street, the hawkers hurriedly vacated their stalls, and the originally lively street immediately vacated an avenue.

The officers and men came in a hurry, and they went quickly, and after a procession of men and horses, the lively atmosphere in the streets was restored, and the hawkers' carts were put back on the road, and it seemed that they were familiar with the situation.

Song Xinshu just wanted to get out of the crowd and continue shopping, but heard Su Qing's boring words.

"Go home." Su Qing said.

Song Xinshu couldn't help but ask, "Husband, what's wrong with you today?" Uncomfortable? ”

"No, let's go." Su Qing said that he never explained too much.

"But we haven't bought anything yet!" Song Xinshu frowned slightly and said, today's Su Qing is indeed very abnormal, could it be that he has something to do with the government, he was really a bandit in the past?

Su Qing didn't reply, and Song Xinshu couldn't say anything, so he could only go with him.

After walking through the street of hawking, it seems that the prosperity of Jinling City has disappeared without a trace, and you will see some mansions with closed doors.

Perhaps in order to hide people's eyes, Song Xinshu felt that the road back to the mansion was different from when he came, the road was open when he came, and at this time there were some grass and trees in the countryside.

Song Xinshu looked at Su Qing, who was walking with a generous back in front, and said nothing.

"Alright, alright! I'm about to starve to death......" An old voice came, it sounded like it should be an old woman, Song Xinshu looked over, and the figure of the old woman was just covered by Su Qing, and she turned sideways slightly.

Su Qing's footsteps paused, and a "jingle bell" sounded, Song Xinshu saw that there were a few more silver coins in the old woman's begging bowl, and Su Qing's footsteps did not stop, but after a while, the scene was even more unbearable.

Surrounded by a number of poor people, they seemed to be a group, dressed in rags, old and children, with some blisters on their skin, and carrying parcels on their backs.

Song Xinshu thought of what the baked cake vendor said, and the refugees who had to leave their hometowns and displaced because of the war appeared in his mind. Seeing this, Song Xinshu held Su Qing tightly with his hand.

Su Qing felt her strangeness and turned around, her expression resolute but still couldn't read too much emotion.

"You go back first." He said.

"Where are you going?" Song Xinshu asked.

"Just go around, don't worry." Su Qing said.

……

When I returned to the mansion, it was getting dark, and I had just stepped through the door when the bright voice of the little girl came: "Shopkeeper, you are back!" ”

Song Xinshu looked at Ah Ya, she was very considerate, and she had learned to worry about people, she looked up at the moonlight, it was indeed not early, and she was delayed by some refugees along the way.

"Well, tomorrow we will go out on the street again, and today we will be tired, so we will bring nothing." Song Xinshu said.

After returning to the room, Song Xinshu washed up briefly, stayed on the bed, covered herself with a quilt, and left only fragrant shoulders and a small face.

I don't know where Su Qing went, she was mysterious when she first came to Jinling, and when she went home today, she never let go of her along the way, like a lover before parting, and she felt reluctant.

When Song Xinshu thought of this, he panicked in his heart, hurriedly shook off the nonsense in his mind, turned his back and closed his eyes sideways.

Today she was also tired, and she felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and gradually she fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, and at what hour, Song Xinshu vaguely heard the sound of the door being opened, followed by the familiar touch of the palm caressing her cheek.

In the candlelight, Su Qing looked at Song Xinshu's eyebrows, and there was a rare softness in his eyes.

Suddenly, he withdrew his palm, and Song Xinshu, who was sleeping, suddenly felt nervous and woke up.

Song Xinshu's eyes were still drowsy, and he looked at Su Qing in a daze, but he Song Xinshu suddenly had a strong reluctance in his heart, "Where have you been?" ”

Su Qing hugged Song Xinshu with her backhand, her head rested on the top of her head, she didn't answer, there was still not much expression on her face, but her eyebrows were unusually tightened.

Song Xinshu did not break this atmosphere, and the two embraced each other so quietly.

"Stay good in Jinling." After a long time, Song Xinshu could hear the words from the man above his head.

"Huh?" She raised her eyes for some reason, and at this moment, Su Qing's lips fell down accurately, swallowing all Song Xinshu's words into her stomach.

Song Xinshu only felt that his head was starting to get dizzy, and he had forgotten something, and his whole body was soft in Su Qing's warm embrace. She felt her body cold, accompanied by a 'tearing' sound, her clothes were torn off by Su Qing, this night seemed to have lost her previous gentleness, and it was more of a need to rush to be one with her.

Song Xinshu seemed to hear Su Qing's whisper in his ear in a daze: "Xinshu, wait for me to come back......"

I don't know what time it was, Song Xinshu woke up and Su Qing's shadow was gone, she looked in the room, there was a jade pendant next to the bed.

Song Xinshu picked it up with a puzzled expression, the color of the jade pendant is very good, even she, a person who doesn't love jade, can feel it, it can be said to be a masterpiece, and it is as warm as jade. The delicate carving of the lines on it, Song Xin Shuyu stroked it with his fingertips, and the two characters Su Qing appeared on the back.

Her face was bright and puzzled, it seemed that this piece of jade was Su Qing, but when did he have such a good piece of jade, he had never seen him wear it.

Song Xinshu didn't think much about it, thinking that the jade was accidentally dropped on the bed by Su Qing, and she went out of the room after she finished washing.

As soon as he came to the small courtyard, Song Xinshu saw Aja, and immediately shouted: "Aja! ”

When Ah Ya saw Song Xinshu, he also ran over quickly, "Shopkeeper!" The movement was a little rude wiping the sweat.

"Why are you sweating so much?" Song Xinshu asked.

Ah Ya smiled on his face, "I saw that the shopkeeper was still sleeping, maybe I was too tired yesterday, so I didn't wake you up, and now I continue to clean up the flowers and plants in the courtyard." ”

Song Xinshu looked at the scissors in Ah Ya's hand and understood, "Have you seen Wu Xiu and his master?" ”

Ah Ya shook his head, Song Xinshu felt strange in his heart, he didn't see anyone when he came together, where did he go? Before she could tell me.

"Alright, don't get it, come with me to the market to buy some things." Song Xinshu already has a preliminary plan for the food market in his heart when he comes to Jinling and the food street he saw yesterday.

While Ah Yan went to wash his hands, Song Xinshu went out of the house to take a few looks, and still saw Su Qing's trace, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous and worried, but after thinking about it, he suppressed this thought of himself.

Where did Su Qing go? Maybe he took Wu Xiu to practice somewhere.
