Chapter 42: The Road Meets the Black Shop

Xu Jiao is now thinking about climbing the mountain, climbing up with two little short legs, God grabbed the tail of winter, and now he froze everything in the world.

In the early morning, only a few sparse birdsong could be heard, and the sun was hidden behind the clouds and was reluctant to come out. When I looked up, I saw a thin layer of ice attached to the bare tree branches, and the leaves of the dead grass on the side of the road were not spared.

Xu Jiao felt that her paws were about to cramp, and in order to walk steadily, her aunt and grandmother grabbed their paws into a small bow in their boots!

However, it still doesn't seem to be very useful, because at this time, Dong'er slipped and didn't stabilize and hit her, just when her feet that were about to fall on the grass roots fell on a bluestone slab, this step was wonderful, the bluestone slab didn't bask in the sun very much, there was already some thin moss on it, and then it was wrapped in a layer of thin ice, ouch hey~ Xu Jiao couldn't control her body anymore and fell straight back.

Xu Jiao closed her eyes resignedly, estimating that she would definitely be smashed to pieces.

Unexpectedly, the body did not fall to the ground, but was stopped by someone and hugged him.

Xu Jiao hurriedly opened her eyes and found that Jiang Xiaobai, who was walking on her left, was holding her. Hurriedly stood up straight and thanked him.

Jiang Xiaobai straightened her and said: "Go to your left to prevent you from falling to the bottom of the mountain, but not to prevent you from falling behind, I didn't think about it." ”

Xu Jiao said: "I don't blame you." And he began to go on again.

But he pulled Dong'er to the back, and came to Huang Rong's side and whispered: "I always feel that there is something wrong with this Jiang Xiaobai." ”

Huang Rong tilted her head slightly, glanced at Jiang Xiaobai behind her, and said, "You just found out?" ”

Xu Jiao said: "You found out earlier? ”

"Let me tell you, this person doesn't look very good on the surface, but I found out when I checked his pulse yesterday, he is just a little hungry, and his body is actually very good, maybe he is a martial arts practitioner."

Xu Jiao was a little unconvinced: "What about practicing martial arts with such a weak appearance?" You listen to him a little life, how is it like a person who practices martial arts? ”

Huang Rong said: "Then where did you see that he had a problem?" ”

Xu Jiao said: "The way he looks at me always makes me a little creepy. ”

Huang Rong tilted her head and looked at her for a full five seconds, and finally asked: "Think about it, did you have any sins in the past, this Jiang Xiaobai appeared a little strangely, anyway, I haven't seen someone who can break free and hang down on his own after being tied to a tree, don't come to you, right?" ”

Xu Jiao looked frightened: "Don't scare me." I was really scared. ”

Huang Rong said: "I didn't scare you, you think about it yourself, this Chinese New Year, bandits also want to enjoy it at home, who will come out to rob money?" And, you have to trust me, he's really in very good health. ”

Xu Jiao said with a bitter face: "I suspected that it was a routine before, and you were to blame for saving it, what should I do now?" ”

Huang Rong patted her and said with relief: "It's okay, since he wants to pretend, let him pretend, no matter what he wants to do, it's better to look at it from time to time than to know it." As long as we don't demolish him, there shouldn't be any big danger, maybe he has the same hardships as us, and he deliberately concealed his identity, didn't you tell the truth to others. ”

Xu Jiao was a little relieved, but she didn't feel good in her heart, and she always felt that this Jiang Xiaobai seemed to be aimed at her.

"Today's New Year~ The most embarrassing New Year I've ever had in my life~~" When Xu Jiao sighed for the nth time, the group finally turned over the mountain and reached the foot of the mountain.

Jiang Xiaobai raised his hand and pointed ahead: "There is a tea shop two miles ahead, we can go and have a cup of tea, rest our feet and then go." ”

Xu Jiao rolled her eyes weakly, slumping her shoulders like a puddle of mud: "Now, a cup of tea can't satisfy me at all." ”

Dong'er stepped forward to help her: "Miss hold on a little longer, since there is a tea shop, the town must not be far away, if you can't bear these hardships, let's repair it or go back?" ”

Xu Jiao hurriedly stood up straight, glared fiercely at the little girl who was looking at her with a hopeful face: "Why can't I endure hardship?" Besides, is this called suffering? I'm bored, bored, I don't understand! ”

Dong'er pursed her mouth: "Yes, yes, Miss is just bored." Then he turned his head to the side, looking unconvinced.

Xu Jiao pulled her head hard: "Now I am used to being ruthless, dare to play a little temper with me." ”

Dong'er's face was turned over by her, but Xu Jiao found that her eyes were red, and there were tears in her eyes that couldn't be dropped, so she was stunned: "What are you doing?" I have not bullied you. ”

Dong'er said: "I'm just sorry for Miss, it's easy to leave the Guogong Mansion, I thought I could have a good life, who would have thought that the prince didn't want you, but Miss had a strong temperament, I had to come out by myself, Miss is so pitiful......"

Xu Jiao saw that she was crying, and hurriedly shouted to stop: "Where is your young lady and me pitiful?" Don't you see how happy I am now? Do you have to see me locked up in the deep palace compound to feel good? ”

Dong'er is an authentic feudal woman, and living in the backyard with her husband and children is the model that her most ideal woman should have, so as Xu Jiao's only close associate, she is very sympathetic and pitiful to her situation.

Skipping these and not mentioning them, Xu Jiao complained all the way, and she didn't delay the trip in the end. Sure enough, after a while, a few people saw an earth-colored cloth flag hanging high on a bamboo pole in front of them, with a big word "tea" written on it.

Everyone walked towards the tea shop, and when they arrived at the bottom of the tea shed, they each found a place to sit, and instructed Cha Xiaoer to bring each person a bowl of tea.

Xu Jiao put the small burden on her shoulders on the stool next to her, crossed Erlang's legs, held a huge tea bowl, and drank it freely.

Dong'er held the tea bowl like a young lady, took two sips, and then turned to Xu Jiao and said, "It's better for Miss to drink less, don't turn around and drink your stomach." ”

Huang Rong re-tied the cuffs and trousers, and then picked up the bowl and joked on the side: "Don't worry, your young lady's body is not so precious, and one or two bowls of coarse tea can't fit her." ”

Unbeknownst to her, as soon as the words fell, Huang Rong jumped up in horror and grabbed her tea bowl: "Don't drink it, there is anesthetic!" ”

However, Xu Jiao's bowl of tea had bottomed out, and she looked at Huang Rong in confusion: "Anesthetic? Aren't black shops generally inns? There are also tea shops......" Before she finished speaking, Xu Jiao already felt that the world was spinning and she was confused, and then fell straight back.

Dong'er was in a hurry, turned around and wanted to pounce, but before she could stand up, she fell on the table. Huang Rong looked behind her, only to see Jiang Xiaobai also fall leisurely, and suddenly felt hopeless, grabbed the burden and was about to run. Who knows, the moment I grabbed a burden, I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head, and before fainting, Huang Rong lamented in her heart: If I knew this, it would be better to drink a bowl of tea, and save this stick.
