Chapter 281: The Land of the Desert North

After Xie Qingyu finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Huo Xiangjun and grabbed a dish, and motioned for Huo Xiangjun to taste it.

Seeing this, Huo Xiangjun carefully picked up the dish, put it in his mouth, and ate it carefully.

"Light rumor, what is this, it tastes very good."

Huo Xiangjun just took a bite, and felt that the food inside was very fresh and smooth. It was refreshing, it was different from what she had eaten in Mobei, and thinking like this, her movements became faster.

"Eat slowly, there's a lot more." Xie Qingyu looked at Huo Xiangjun's very satisfied expression like this, and hurriedly handed over a glass of water, and said very kindly.

"Whisper, you're so nice." Huo Xiangjun smiled at Xie Qingyu when he heard this, and reached out to drink the glass of water.

Xie Qingyu looked at Huo Xiangjun at this moment as if he was caught in endless memories, unable to extricate himself, if someone helped her like this back then, how good it would be to give her food.

"Miss, Miss, what's wrong?" At this time, Qianqiu looked at Xie Qingyu and was stunned, and hurriedly called a few times.

Xie Qingyu heard Qianqiu's words, and then came back to his senses, shook his head and said that it was okay.

"Miss Huo, there is still soup here, you can taste it." Seeing this, Qianqiu didn't say anything more, turned his head to look at Huo Xiangjun, who still had a good appetite, and the corners of his lips unconsciously raised a smile.

"Okay." Huo Xiangjun seemed to have forgotten what had happened before at this time, and ate the things in front of him with relish.

"After eating tonight, you should sleep well, you must be tired after so many days of wandering." Xie Qingyu saw that everything on the table was almost eaten, so he said to Huo Xiangjun.

"Miss, there is only one room in the cabin, if Miss Huo lives, where will you live?" Qianqiu listened to Xie Qingyu's words, a trace of embarrassment flashed on her face, and she whispered.

"Light rumor, let's sleep, why am I embarrassed to occupy your room?" Although Qianqiu's voice was not loud, it happened to reach Huo Xiangjun's ears, and she quickly got up and prevaricated.

"Hey, you've just been saved now, you're weak, I'm fine, you'll be better in the future, we can squeeze it." Xie Qingyu looked at Huo Xiangjun with a very serious expression and persuaded.

She fell asleep with Qianqiu that day, after all, Huo Xiangjun at the moment had just woken up not long ago, and remembering Huo Xiangjun's state during the day, it was better to let her rest well tonight.

"Thanks for that." Huo Xiangjun saw that Xie Qingyu insisted on this, and he didn't shirk it anymore and agreed.

Time passed quickly, the moon was already halfway up, and in the quiet night, there were a few bird cries from time to time, which sounded very pleasant, Huo Xiangjun in the house had already rested, leaving only Xie Qingyu and Qianqiu to stay on the splint.

The boatman was already dozing drowsily, Xie Qingyu leaned his back against the deck, looked at the starry sky with a meaningful face, and unconsciously remembered the days spent with Nangong Chengyu on the way to Nanjiang.

I don't know if Nangong Chengyu and his mother went to the capital together.

Thinking like this, Xie Qingyu fell asleep unconsciously, and when she woke up, it was already the second day.

"Miss, when you wake up, you still have to cover yourself with a blanket when it's cold at night." Qianqiu saw that Xie Qingyu woke up at this time, and hurriedly cleaned up, packed up all the blankets on Xie Qingyu's body, and instructed.

"Qianqiu, you've worked hard for the past two days, and we can rest for a while when we get to the capital." Xie Qingyu looked at Qianqiu's very virtuous appearance, and said it casually.

"Miss, this is my business, but now it's not like in the house, Miss is a general." Qianqiu looked at Xie Qingyu very seriously, she always felt that the young lady's trip was always a little different, but she couldn't tell what was different.

"Where are you from, and why did you go to the capital this time?" Huo Xiangjun heard the conversation between the two, and was even more convinced that Xie Qingyu was a rich daughter, but which rich daughter would take this kind of boat.

"We are Jiangnan people, and we are going to relatives this time." Xie Qingyu raised his eyes and looked at the boatman, and said to Huo Xiangjun, after all, he has not yet arrived in the capital, if there is anything wrong in the middle, how can this be good, or have to be careful.

"That's the case, then when I settle down in the capital, I'll come to play with you again." Huo Xiangjun listened to Xie Qingyu's words, and felt that he fell in love with Xie Qingyu, if she arrived in the capital and lived in Huangyi Academy in the future, she would definitely be able to communicate with Xie Qingyu more.

"Of course you can, Xiangjun is not going to live in the Huangyi Academy this time, I heard that the academy has a corresponding study house for the ladies of the family to live in." Xie Qingyu casually chatted with Huo Xiangjun, she thought that she would also live in the corresponding study, but she didn't expect that the Xie family still had a home.

I don't know where this family comes from, she just heard Xie Tianyang mention something, the official eunuch family, but how big is this official, Xie Tianyang didn't tell her, and now she can only take one step at a time, fortunately, there is still a day or two to the capital to make preparations.

Xie Youran's official boat is bound to arrive today or tomorrow, but he is already late, and he will definitely not leave a good impression on his family.

"Light rumor, what you said is right, I was ransacked by the bandits this time, and the entanglement on my body earlier is gone, and now I can only pray to go to the capital as soon as possible, so that I can enter the study."

Huo Xiangjun didn't seem to worry about the future at all, and her eyes exuded a bit of yearning for the capital.

"Xiangjun, you can see it, but it's okay, so it saves a lot of trouble." Xie Qingyu nodded, and did not mention the matter of the previous bandits.

"If I don't see it openly, I'm afraid that this world will no longer be able to accommodate me." Huo Xiangjun listened to Xie Qingyu's words and smiled slightly, but this smile seemed to imply infinite suffering.

It is understandable to say, listening to what Huo Xiangjun said, the death of both her parents at home must be unavoidable, and the female officer who was admitted to the court this time has almost spent all her entanglement, but who would have expected that she would meet a water bandit in the middle of the road.

"Don't talk about this, I heard that the fresh fish in this river is very delicious, Xiangjun would like to try it?" Thinking of this, Xie Qingyu immediately changed the topic, she had always had this idea since she got on this boat.

"A few girls, the fish in this small place are the fattest and big, and when it comes to fishing in autumn, the fish here flow downstream, and everyone who has eaten it is full of praise." The boatman happened to be idle at this time, and when he heard a few people talking about the fish in the river, he also hurriedly participated.

"It's a pity, those two are not here, otherwise this fish would have been caught in three or two clicks." Xie Qingyu looked at the plain river, and suddenly remembered Liluo and Nangong Chengyu, if there were two of them, the fish in this river would not be able to let go.

"Huh? What is the rumor talking about? Huo Xiangjun asked suspiciously.

"It's nothing, I'm thinking about how we should catch fish, by the way, Xiangjun, what kind of meals do you eat in Mobei?" Xie Qingyu came back to his senses, and while thinking about how to catch fish, he chatted with Huo Xiangjun.

"Most of our desert north is grassland, and some of the north are deserts, so we generally eat more meat and less vegetables, such as fish, although we have them, but they are very rare."

"The sky in Mobei is much bluer than here, the white clouds in the sky reflect each other, the past mountain wind blows and bends the grass, and the starry sky at night is like a dream-like psychedelia." When Huo Xiangjun heard this, he carefully told Xie Qingyu about the life in Mobei.

Xie Qingyu turned his head to look at Huo Xiangjun at this moment, and found that although his complexion was not particularly fair, his eyes seemed to glow, attracting people's attention.

She always felt that Mobei must be that kind of desert-like place, but now after listening to what Huo Xiangjun said, she felt that Mobei was a very vast prairie, and countless horses galloped on it, which made people feel an unprecedented freedom for a while.

"Hearing Xiangjun say this, then I will go to Mobei in my lifetime."

"That's natural, if you want to go, I'll be your guide, but let's get the fish first, I also want to taste what the fish in the Central Plains are like." Huo Xiangjun had just finished talking to Xie Qingyu and righteous words, and then turned his eyes to the fish in the pond of the river, and his eyes were full of expectation.

"Girl, I have a fishing rod here, can you try it?" The boatman didn't make up his mind for a long time when he saw Xie Qingyu, so he suggested it, picked up the fishing rod that had been shelved on the splint on the side, and handed it to Xie Qingyu.

Seeing that the boatmen were all very interested, they stopped the boat.

"This is fresh, Xiangjun, you can try it too." Xie Qingyu looked at the fishing rod, and a trace of embarrassment crossed her face, when she was with Nangong Chengyu before, most of them were to get the fish quickly, and then put it in the pot, and the whole process was only time-consuming to cook.

Now looking at this fishing rod, there are exactly two of them, and Xie Qingyu pulled Huo Xiangjun to try it together.

"Can such a little hook catch a fish?" Huo Xiangjun looked at the fishing rod in front of him and became suspicious, the people in the Central Plains used to like to use these things.

"Little girl, don't underestimate this, this one is a bait, and it can be very useful." Listening to Huo Xiangjun's slightly puzzled voice, the boatman hurriedly hung the bait on the hook and demonstrated it to a few people.

It's just that he didn't wait for the fish to bite the hook for a long time, Huo Xiangjun was also impatient, and went to work in the small kitchen with Qianqiu, Xie Qingyu knew that fishing would take a long time, anyway, she didn't have anything to do and sat and waited.

After Qianqiu and Huo Xiangjun finished their work, they sat on the deck eating snacks, watching Xie Qingyu fishing very bored, and the few people waiting for them almost fell asleep.

Xie Qingyu was also waiting for a lot of boredom, and even took out a book from the burden and read it carefully, but at this moment, the fishing rod shook suddenly, and she hurriedly put the book down, and woke up a few people in surprise.

"There's a fish, there's a fish!"
