Chapter 2 The Suburbs of Xianyang (Second Update)

"Okay." Zhao Jun nodded speechlessly, raised his head again and asked tentatively: "However, I heard that you don't have a mother, why?"

"If you don't want to, you can find a place to live by yourself, huh!" Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Mu Ning's cold voice, and then she saw a trace of sadness in her expression.

Zhao Jun shook his head, since this crazy woman has something unspeakable, there is no need to say more, anyway, she is not afraid of a woman, what is she afraid of.

In the end, the two led the horse all the way to find the courtyard in the town, which was next to the edge of the town, surrounded by tall locust trees and some distance from other households, the yard itself was not very large, but the surrounding area was very quiet because there was no one, and the surrounding courtyard wall was more than one person high, built of loess and wooden piles, covered with a layer of hay and solid.

Then the two walked into the yard, and saw that there were several small houses in front of the small courtyard that was a zhang long, and then there were three main houses around the back from a willow tree next to it, Zhao Jun naturally lived in the small house in the front, and the horses were raised by a firewood house in the middle yard, and Zhao Jun also simply built a shack.

It's just obvious that the courtyard has been deserted for too long and is really a bit desolate, not to mention that the bed in the house is covered with a thick layer of dust, and even some places are broken, and fine cobwebs have formed in the gaps.

In desperation, the two of them dusted and fiddled with the doors and windows, added firewood and weeds, and some of the roofs were ventilated and could only be repaired by the two of them by themselves, so it took two or three days to get it almost done, but this reminded the two of them of the days in the valley, but the busyness was mixed with a touch of warmth, full and sweet.

The moon rabbit came out, the sky was full of stars shining, the ancient sky was particularly clear, and the moonlight covered the small courtyard of the two with a thick layer of soft white gauze.

"Whew, it's finally like home."

When they were done, the two let out a long breath, and stood in the middle of the courtyard and smiled at each other again.

"Woo" Whining Dog fluttered back and forth in front of the trouser legs of the two at this time, making the two of them covered in mud, and they were also very busy.

In the end, Mu Ning's face moved, and he turned his head and said: "It's not convenient to go to the wine shop, and it's about to end the New Year, so we have to buy some edible products, and tomorrow we will go to the town market to buy some New Year's goods." ”

After hearing this, Zhao Jun glanced at Mu Ning lightly and nodded: "Well, go to bed early." ”

Turning their heads, the two went to their respective rooms to rest, the bedding was ready to not be afraid of the cold, but Zhao Jun was a little worried and missed, last year's New Year was spent with Zhao Ling, but now I don't know where she is, and sure enough, I miss my relatives every festival.

The next morning, the weather was fine, and although the air was still a little cold, the sun added some warmth, and the diligent vendors got up early and piled up their goods in the market to sell.

Zhao Jun and Mu Ning also went to the market together, but Mu Ning disguised his appearance a little in order to hide his whereabouts, although it was as beautiful and moving, but it was not so eye-catching, after all, her identity was sensitive and afraid of any trouble, Zhao Jun was nothing, anyway, no one knew him in Xianyang, but he just carried a black cloth bag to prepare for some New Year's goods, but he dared to go out of the door, and the roaring dog followed up again, and the two had no choice but to take it, it seems that this little guy only has to be active, otherwise he will not be pleasing if he grows a body of fat.

It's just that the two of them began to go to the market, and they were always ridiculed by some merchants, and praised them for their talented women, thinking that the two of them were going out for a private meeting behind their families.

Zhao Jun is nothing, but Mu Ning is not very used to it, and he is often a little embarrassed and walks away in a hurry, so in the noisy market all the way, it is often Zhao Jun who takes a cloth bag into the New Year's goods, and then chases after Mu Ning, of course, this can't be blamed, Captain Zhao is tall and strong, and he has a resolute momentum, while Mu Ning is temperament like ice and dust, there is indeed a husband and wife, and it is a lonely man and widow who naturally arouses suspicion.

"Come, this little brother, buy a hairpin for your sweetheart, it is made of fine red ironwood, you see how delicate the red plum blossom carving is on it, and this purple hanging bead is a perfect match with this girl, it is said that it is the New Year, and it is also a festive picture, isn't it?"

At this time, the two of them happened to walk to the stall of a middle-aged aunt, who was a little fat, and when she saw the two, she picked up a mahogany plum hairpin and tried her best to show off to Zhao Jun, and looked at Mu Ning with a smile as if she was doing something.

Mu Ning's face flushed for a moment at this time, and he lowered his head and wanted to walk away again, but Zhao Jun suddenly grabbed her soft arm and said with a smile: "Just take it as a New Year's gift for you." ”

Then Zhao Jun turned back to the middle-aged aunt and said, "How much money, I want it." ”

"The young man really has a good eye, and he is even more bold, I only charge you five coins, so that you will have good luck in the coming year and give birth to a noble son early, hehe." When the middle-aged aunt saw that a business had been sold, her face couldn't help but bloom, and her words became a little excited.

Mu Ning blushed even more at this time, but Zhao Jun grabbed her arm and couldn't break free, Zhao Jun smiled and gave Mu Ning the cloth bag full of New Year's goods, and then turned around and took out five half taels of round square holes from his waist and handed them over, now this half two coins are the main currency of the Qin Emperor's unified currency, although there are still individual old money in circulation, but the government and the court have been gradually recycling.

"Don't send it, the two of you will go slowly."

Under the enthusiasm of the middle-aged aunt, Zhao Jun carried the black cloth bag full of New Year's goods and followed Mu Ning, and the roaring dog behind him also hurriedly followed, and when he walked to no one's place, Zhao Jun wanted to hand the mahogany plum hairpin to Mu Ning, saying a few words that should be said to the situation, so a girl is also accompanying him for the New Year, and he can't be too stingy as a big man.

However, at this moment, suddenly there was a noise in the north of the market, and the ground shook.

The sound of the "bang" gong sounded, and I don't know whose driver was actually sounding the gong to open the way.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Then a loud shout rang out, and the people in the middle of the bazaar gave way to both sides of the road.

Zhao Jun looked back when he was startled, and saw that at this time, in the northernmost part of the market, suddenly two teams of black-clothed and black-armored Qin troops rushed left and right, standing all over the street in ten steps, one person and one person in ten steps, and a majestic general led by him rode a horse in front of him, followed by a curtain carriage, and dozens of armor soldiers around him were very tightly guarded, and the sound was huge.

There is no wooden wall on this carriage, and the layout is mainly soft and comfortable, but the plain curtain gently blocks the figure inside, only looking at the figure of a woman, but I don't know what the real person looks like.

At this time, Zhao Jun pulled Mu Ning to hide in the crowd on both sides, and then turned around and glanced at the carriage, the carriage was surrounded by mink, which looked extremely luxurious and noble, and there were more than a dozen kinds of jade pendants, so the 'ding' sound of the collision between the carriages was extremely crisp, and of course, the four healthy horses led by him were even stronger.

At this time, the people around Zhao Jun all pointed their fingers, and they couldn't help but show a strong look of surprise and envy on their faces.

And a few people in the distance were even more discussing, and those who were curious listened with their ears pricked up, and Zhao Jun was of course one of them.

"Look, she is the famous Mrs. Qing, known as my first woman in Daqin."

"The curtain is blocked, it's just a woman's figure, how do you know it's her?"

"Nonsense, can you alarm the captain in Xianyang to escort all the way, and the carriage is so luxurious and still a woman, except for Mrs. Qing, who else do you say."

"Tsk, so rich and powerful, whoever marries her is really a blessing from the three lifetimes."

"Shhh

Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Zhao Jun couldn't help frowning, and Mu Ning's face was difficult to look at from the beginning.
