Chapter 16 (Part II)
Looking at Kao Lie's figure gradually moving away, my eyes were moistened, and I quietly wiped the corners of my eyes and turned around, but I saw that Lu Yihong and Zhou Fengdie were still looking at me blankly, Lu Yihong's beautiful eyes showed an excited light, and she repeated softly: "A good man has ambitions in all directions!" Little turtle, you've finally grown up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
While everyone was packing up and preparing to leave, I came to Chu Yaoyao's side and said with a smile: "Is the branch of the locust tree for me to boil water?" β
Chu Yaoyao turned to look at me, her eyes were no longer as cold as before, and she said softly: "A good man has ambitions in all directions!" Where did you hear this phrase? β
I was ashamed to say, "This is my original!" β
Chu Yaoyao's expression was full of doubt, and she whispered, "I found that you have changed a lot!" β
"Where has changed?"
Chu Yaoyao bit her lip and said softly: "Become more able at disguising yourself, and more able at buying people's hearts!" She couldn't help but smile at the corner of her lips, and turned to walk towards the cave.
I couldn't help but be stunned there, I it, I did it for a long time and her remarks were considered by her to be buying people's hearts, but think about it, that good man's ambition in the Quartet alone is better than the hundred taels of gold in Lu Yihong's hands, I believe that one day Kaolie will go to Huiji to find me.
According to the route that Kaoli said, we crossed the rocky peak, and passed by the place where Chu Yaoyao and I fought the wild wolf yesterday, we couldn't help but glance at each other, Chu Yaoyao hurriedly lowered her head when she met my gaze, but her pretty face turned red.
Fu Qutai cut down a few bamboos in the nearby bamboo forest, tied them with strips of cloth, and soon made a simple sedan chair, because I carried Xie Qing all the way, so as not to continue to worsen the blood blisters on her feet, Xie Qing didn't want me to carry her anyway, but I couldn't resist my order.
Fu Qutai smiled: "Come up, Miss Qing!" β
Xie Qing nodded, I put her on the bamboo sedan chair and Fu Qutai lifted her one after the other.
Zhou Fengdie quipped: "Xie Qing, I got on the sedan chair so early, Xie Ni has to work hard!" β
In everyone's hearts, they thought that the two sisters, Xie Qing and Xie Ni, would be accepted as concubines by me sooner or later, so Zhou Fengdie made such a joke without scruples.
Xie Qingqiao's face was as red as an apple, she lowered her head, but her beautiful eyes were quietly aimed at me, I squeezed my eyes at her, and Xie Qing felt more and more shy.
Xie Ni also fell at the end of the team with a red face, and Lu Yihong came out to relieve the siege and said: "These two children have the thinnest skin, and Feng Die actually made a joke about them." She also had a knowing smile on her face.
Zhou Fengdie smiled: "Boss, you bought the two of them to be a daughter-in-law for the little turtle, did you regret it?" β
Lu Yihong said: "I just looked at them pitifully when I bought them, and I have long regarded them as daughters in my heart, if they don't want to, I won't force them." β
Zhou Fengdie deliberately asked Xie Qing, "Xie Qing, are you willing?" β
Xie Qingqiao's face was crimson, and her voice was like a mosquito: "My sister and I still have to keep filial piety for a year......
I was so happy in my heart that she neither said yes nor no, and when she said such a thing, she must have been willing in her heart.
Lu Yihong couldn't help laughing: "Feng Die, don't scare them!" "How shrewd she is, I can already see from Xie Qing's expression that she has already thought about me.
In the afternoon, we arrived at Moganxi and took a short rest by the stream.
Xie Qing lit a stove with the help of Fu Qutai, and I took advantage of this short gap to sneak behind the hidden bushes, took off my clothes, and jumped into the stream to wash the dust and sweat on my body.
The stream is very shallow, the water flow is gentle, and the slender hands of countless girls are gently *** my skin, and the muscles and nerves that have been tense for many days have finally been relaxed.
I leaned comfortably against the cobblestone, which was slightly hot from the sun, and I wanted to sleep comfortably, when I faintly heard the conversation between two young girls in the woods behind me. listened to it, but it was Xie Ni and Xie Qing.
I only heard Xie Ni whisper: "Sister, you don't really like the young master, do you?" β
Xie Qing said shyly: "Why did my sister say that? β
Xie Ni said: "I can see that since you and the young master disappeared at the same time that day, your attitude towards the young master seems to have changed a lot. β
"Sister, I'm still the same me!"
Xie Ni whispered: "You don't have to lie to me, when Aunt Zhou asked you today, we can see the affection in your eyes." β
"Sister......" Xie Qing shouted shyly.
Xie Ni sighed softly: "Although the young master has changed a little recently, he is still a young master after all, and we shouldn't expect too much from him." β
Xie Qing said: "Sister, in fact, the young master may not be as bad as we thought at the beginning, he has indeed changed a lot recently, he has become considerate of others, has become more affectionate, and has become ......."
Xie Ni couldn't help laughing: "Look, I haven't said anything about him yet, you immediately started to defend him, and you still said that you didn't like him?" Xie Ni whispered: "If the boss really wants you to marry the young master, are you willing?" β
I held my breath and waited for Xie Qing's answer.
After a long time, I heard Xie Qing hum softly, and whispered, "Maybe this is my life......
The two girls walked towards the stream, and I hurriedly grabbed my clothes and fled upstream, climbed to the bank of the stream in a thicket of trees, got dressed, and pretended to be casual and came to the makeshift camp.
Chu Yaoyao had already cooked the medicinal juice for me, and I took it and drank it.
At this time, Xie Ni and Xie Qing also came back with washed mushrooms, Xie Qing saw that I was still shy, if she knew that I heard the conversation just now, she would definitely be even more afraid to face me.
After lunch and a little rest, we continued downstream along Mogan Creek.
In the evening, when we finally walked out of Cang'er Mountain and came to the top of the avenue, Fu Qutai quickly recognized where we were, and reported with a smile: "Boss, there is Huihe Town not far ahead. β
Lu Yihong said with a smile: "Okay, we will rest in Huihe Town tonight, and wait for tomorrow to buy a carriage and horses, and then continue on the road." β
Huihe Town no longer belongs to Zhuji City, the town in the Spring and Autumn Period is far from the prosperity of modern towns, this Huihe Town only lives less than 50 households, the main road of the town is just a blue brick path less than four meters wide, there is only one inn in the whole town, a dilapidated lantern is hung in front of the inn, swaying in the wind in the gray twilight.
The handwriting on the lantern has faded, and it is impossible to tell what is written.
He had stayed here before, and he went in first and asked for five clean upper rooms.
Although it was during the journey, there was still a difference between dignity and inferiority, I was alone, Xie Qing and Xie Ni lived next door to me, Xie Ni was responsible for tidying up my room and Lu Yihong's room, and filled the bathtub with hot water before I walked in.
The window of the room was on the edge of the street, and as the summer rain had just stopped, I felt sweltering, and I took off my clothes and shoes, went into the tub, scrubbed hastily, and then changed into the clean clothes that Xie Ni had prepared. When I think about the time in the past, I must have sat shirtless in beach pants and slippers in an air-conditioned room, but now I can only follow the local customs, using this as the only way to cool down and escape the heat of the summer day.
I changed my clothes and put on my clogs and went to the living room, where the others had already ordered their meals and were waiting for me.
Lu Yihong smiled and beckoned to me: "Little turtle, come quickly, I'll wait for you." β
I happily sat next to her, Xie Ni brought the already cold mung bean tea to me, I drank it all, and said with a smile: "If only there were some ice cubes and ice cream, it would be enjoyable!" β
The unintentional remark surprised everyone again.
Xie Qing couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, I know the ice cubes, what is ice cream?" β
I laughed and said, "Ice cream is made by mixing milk, chocolate, fruit and other things together and freezing them into ice, which tastes very good, and when eaten in such hot days, it has the effect of preventing heatstroke and cooling down." β
Lu Yihong smiled: "It's nonsense, where to find ice cubes in summer?" β
I shook my head and said, "We're here in the Southern Plains, and it's hot, but when we get to the top of the mountain at a high altitude, the snow still doesn't melt, and there are ice cubes everywhere." β
Xie Ni said: "Even if there is one on the mountain, it will melt all the way down from the mountain." β
Everyone thought I was whimsical, only Xie Qing whispered: "When it comes to winter, I will try it according to what the young master said." β
