Let's go back to Gangneung City! Du Mei stood in the middle of the road on horseback, and he could see the outline of the towering towers of Gangneung Fortress in the distance.

"Sister...... Aren't you afraid? Xiao Qi asked suspiciously.

"Don't be afraid, there is a saying that the lights are dark, and the gangsters can't imagine that I will come back, and besides, my friend has been scared for three days, and I have to report his safety first." The rising sun is warm, and Du Mei faces the light and moves forward firmly.

She still has a sentence buried in her heart, Chu Lin is willing to let her go, it must have cleared all hidden obstacles, this is an instinctive trust, this trust has never wavered from beginning to end!

The road on the official road was flat, and the two sisters rode closer and closer, but they also became more and more crowded, and people from all directions poured together, those riding horses and sitting in sedan chairs, those carrying carts, crowded and bustling, Du Mei had to hold on to the reins, and walk slowly with the flow of people.

The city gate slowly opened, because of the accident just now, the soldiers of the patrol camp checked tightly, and the crowd who was in a hurry to enter the city was suddenly congested, Du Mei and Xiao Qi had to dismount and walk, caught in the damp snorts of cows, horses and mules, and listened to the whispered curses of the peddlers' pawns.

The two sisters are very eye-catching in the crowd, not only because Du Mei is beautiful and Xiao Qi is heroic, but also because the horse they lead is very handsome, and the rouge horse is as bright as a peach blossom. And the jujube red horse is dark red all over, with a crystal luster, like a fine silk.

Du Mei and Xiao Qi slowly entered the city with the crowd, and the soldiers who inspected it just took a routine look and let them go. And the news of her return to Gangneung City was quickly passed on to one person by one or two pigeon whistles in the sky.

There were five or six bounty portraits on the walls, and there were other torn off notes, and Du Mei stopped to look at them, and recognized four of them as the people who had attacked them.

"It seems that King Yan used thunder tactics this time, and he has caught seven or eight villains in just three days." The onlookers next to him pointed and pointed.

"But no, I heard that these people are the remnants of bandits in the south, and they were served by King Yan last time, and they will come to seek revenge." A man muttered quietly.

"How brave is our King Yan, who can lead his troops to the south and smash the lair, and are you afraid that they will send it to the door? If you want me to say, this time it's just time to catch turtles in an urn for them! The other man said boldly, and then his hands were pinched hard, causing others to applaud in unison.

Du Mei led the horse and left silently, but she didn't believe what the people said very much, she secretly thought in her heart, if she really came to seek revenge on King Yan, what would she do to kill her? The leading gangster made it clear that they were entrusted by someone to make a special trip to kill Du Mei, which seems to have nothing to do with the revenge of the bandits in the south.

"Sister, where are we going?" Xiao Qi saw that Du Mei was just walking and thinking about his thoughts, so he hurriedly asked.

"Ah" Du Mei withdrew from her thoughts, looked left and right, saw a ready-to-wear store not far away, turned her head and said to Xiao Qi, "Since you want to restore your daughter's body, you should always look like a girl, my sister will take you to buy two clothes first." ”

"Okay." Xiao Qi was happy all of a sudden, and walked forward happily.

The ready-to-wear store was fully clothed, and Du Mei quickly picked out two simple and elegant skirts for Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi happily hugged them to try, and Du Mei chose underwear and shoes and socks for her.

"Sister......" Xiao Qi wailed inside.

"What's wrong?" Du Mei asked anxiously through the door of the inner room.

"I ...... I won't wear it! Xiao Qi opened a crack in the door, revealing half of his face like a boiled shrimp, and said shyly.

Du Mei's heart was stung by her words, and she simply took her underwear and walked in.

After a while, Xiao Qi pinched the skirt on his body and asked repeatedly: "Do I do this?" ”

"Okay, good, beautiful!" Du Mei nodded repeatedly.

"But I can't walk at all!" As soon as Xiao Qi took a step, she stepped on her skirt, and if Du Mei hadn't held her in time, she would have almost fallen.

Du Mei found out that Xiao Qi, who was wearing a beautiful skirt, would not change her body and immediately become a girl, but like a mud ornament, cramped and uneasy, and completely lost her agility and vitality just now.

Xiao Qi has followed Grandpa to the north and south since she was a child, and has been raised as a boy, and later spent more than half a year in the all-man Beijing patrol camp, so she can't find the delicate and soft beauty of ordinary girls, but instead she is heroic, tall and handsome that others can't reach.

"Forget it, you still wear the original one for the time being, and when you get home, I'll make you a suitable one." Du May had to give up the clothes in the ready-to-wear store.

Du Mei took Xiao Qi to buy two plain cloths in the cloth village, looking at her like that, she definitely couldn't wear embroidered shoes, so she ordered a pair of lambskin boots for her in the leather store next door, she thought about it, and there would be more days of riding horses in the future, so she ordered a pair for herself.

After she finished buying these, she was about to lead the horse away, but she heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves galloping from the street, and she hurriedly pulled Xiao Qi to avoid the side.

A golden horse passed in an instant, the man on the horse was dressed in a gorgeous scarlet robe, the clothes were fluttering, as if a wisp of light in the sky, maybe the rouge horse was too eye-catching, or the heart was connected, the man on the horse was shocked at a glance, and suddenly grabbed the reins, causing the BMW to raise his hooves and neigh!

"Mer!" The man on the horse came to Du Mei in a blink of an eye, and held her in his arms, as if she were a lost treasure.

"Who are you? Let go of my sister! Xiao Qi choked and pulled out the short knife, and his eyebrows were cold.

"Murong Xi, what are you crazy about!" Du Mei was strangled by his bear hug, and he couldn't push it away, so he had to stomp on his foot.

"Ahh Murong Xi screamed miserably, "How can you be like this, I'm going crazy looking for you!" ”

"Okay, let's go, let's go, don't be embarrassed on the street!" Seeing that the crowds around him were gathering more and more, Du Mei hurriedly turned over and left as if fleeing.

The three of them rode a brisk distance before finally leaving the street and turning into a secluded alleyway.

"You're the kid who saved Ame?" Murong Xi glared at Xiao Qi, who insisted on squeezing between him and Du Mei.

The alley is narrow and can only accommodate two horses walking side by side at the same time, so the three horses are each half staggered, and Xiao Qi is sandwiched between them.

"I'm not a brat!" Xiao Qi rolled his eyes and said in a dumb voice.

"Just your duck voice, not a boy, but a girl!" Murong Xi said angrily.

"Murong Xi, she is my sister, I don't allow you to say that about her!" Du Mei frowned in warning.

"Okay, okay, it's my sister who can't do it!" Murong Xi begged for mercy, but he looked left and right, and felt that Xiao Qi didn't look like a girl.

"Where have you been hiding all these days? I've almost turned Gangneung City upside down, and I haven't found you! Murong Xi deliberately took a few steps behind and spoke side by side with Du Mei.

"We ran out of the city that day, and hid in a farmhouse outside the city for a few days, and today the legend says that the robbers caught them before they dared to enter the city to inform you." Du Mei didn't want to mention Chu Lin, so he hid the matter of the racecourse.

"You say this, you still have a conscience, I'm afraid that you will go out of the way and haven't slept for a few days!" Murong Xi was miserable and miserable, looking pitiful.

"You can't talk so close to my sister!" Xiao Qi was so angry that he whipped it towards the big golden horse's buttocks.

The big golden horse was in pain, and suddenly ran out of a thousand feet, spread his hooves and ran wildly, Murong Xi was caught off guard, and was pulled by the strong strength of the big golden horse, and almost couldn't sit steadily, he held the reins, and only had time to turn around and shout: "You go to Uncle Wu's house first!" ”

"What's wrong with you? It's the first time you've met him. Du Mei really couldn't figure out where Xiao Qi was so hostile.

"How can a man wear red clothes, he is not serious at first glance!" Xiao Qi said angrily, "He still dares to hug his sister on the street, it's so bad!" ”

"What strange thoughts are hidden in your little head!" Du Mei was rarely amused by her and laughed, and swept away the haze for several days.

"Really!" Xiao Qi was embarrassed by Du Mei's laughter, and writhed on the horse in embarrassment.

The two sisters were talking, and after a while, they arrived in front of Aunt Wu's courtyard, and before Du Mei stepped forward to buckle the ring, Uncle Wu opened the door from the inside with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle Wu." Du Mei and Xiao Qi led the horse in.

"The girl is polite, the young master asked me to keep watch at all times, you can be regarded as back, my wife has been talking about you for the past few days." Old man Wu lame, bolted the door, and led two horses to feed.

Du Mei went to the house to put down her own things, and took Xiao Qi to the front to see the Wu family, she was under the back kitchen, and when she saw Du Mei coming, she grabbed her hand, wanted to say something, and was afraid of others, so she only patted her hand silently.

"Who is this little brother?" Wu Shi saw Xiao Qi in a blink of an eye and asked with some surprise.

"Auntie, this is my sister I recognize." Du Mei hurriedly introduced, turned back to Xiao Qi and smiled and said, "It seems that I really have to hurry up and make you a suitable dress." ”

"It's my sister, look at my old wife's old dizziness, sit outside, and wait for me to make noodles for you to eat." Wu also laughed.

Wu's craftsmanship is good, Xiao Qi devoured a bowl of beef chowder noodles, it was still not enjoyable, but it was not good to ask for it again, Du Mei saw it, so he gave her most of the bowl.

After eating noodles, Du Mei took Xiao Qi to stand by the dock, watching the boats coming and going on the river.

At this time, it is the hour, the wharf is the busiest, a ship's things are transported in, anchor and unload, and there is a ship's things transported out, anchor and travel, the number on the wharf rises and falls, melodious and far-reaching.

"Sister, what's the point here?" After a moment of freshness, Xiao Qi felt very bored and asked puzzledly.

"The knowledge here is great, Jiangling City is the imperial city of our Dashun Dynasty, where the largest population lives and gathers the most wealth, but it doesn't have everything, and it has to rely on various businesses to transport the materials that are lacking, and then transport the superfluous or just emerging things out, so that a city can be lively, rich in goods, and developed in circulation." Du Mei stared at the white waves of the ship.

"Oh." Xiao Qi heard the clouds and mountains and fog, and he didn't understand it, so he couldn't help but be in awe of Du Mei, and nodded solemnly.

"What are you talking about?" Murong Xi strode over and asked with a smile on his face.

"Murong Xi, I want to do business in Jiangling City!" Du Mei turned his eyes to look at him, with a serious expression.

"What? At this juncture? Murong Xi suspected that something was wrong with his ears.
