When Shi Yi thinks about Xianyu, someone always comes to disturb her.

Qiao Henian picked up the book and pretended to continue reading. Lu Shen was not happy, "That's it?"

Qiao Henian was quite calm: "Well, what else do you want?"

Shi Yi smiled softly, her eyes moving back and forth between the two of them. She was waiting for a good show. Qiao Henian had whetted Lu Shen's appetite so much, and then there was no follow-up. Now Lu Shen was feeling uncomfortable.

Lu Shen really felt as if thousands of ants were crawling into his clothes at the same time. He was sitting on pins and needles, and his butt seemed to be nailed to the chair. He couldn't sit still for a moment.

He gnashed his teeth and moved closer to Qiao Henian, saying with a dark face:

"Where are the agreed details? Henian, you can't be so shameless!"

Qiao Henian said calmly: "Lu Shen, one should not be too curious about everything!" Where is the agreed distance?

Can we still play happily together?

Lu Shen narrowed his eyes and guessed:

"Oh! I see. It must be Aunt Diao who is a teacher in General Xiao's mansion, and you also became classmates with the children of General Xiao's family.

Then, General Xiao liked you very much, and you two got to know each other."

Shi Yi reminded: "Well...they don't seem to be able to be classmates due to their age."

General Xiao is much older than Qiao Henian, and General Xiao is much younger than Qiao Henian.

Lu Shen raised his eyebrows and said, "The child that General Xiao asked Aunt Diao to teach writing should be a girl from the Xiao family."

Shi Yi suddenly realized, yes, General Xiao’s family has not only boys, but also many girls.

Girls from families with strict family traditions will usually ask female teachers to teach them.

It seems that this was the situation for the Xiao family back then.

Qiao Henian nodded, confirming that their guesses were correct.

Lu Shen urged with an unhappy look on his face: "What then? What then? Did the Xiao family actually let you attend classes with his girl?"

Qiao Henian had a look on his face that said, "You're an idiot!" "Then I met General Xiao!"

He is a special boy with bad legs and feet. He has nothing to worry about when he takes classes with the girls from the Xiao family.

At that time, the mistress of the Xiao family was very sympathetic to him and took extra care of him in every way.

Because Qiao Henian had a very well-behaved personality when he was a child, he was chubby and cute and particularly likable, plus he had to use a wheelchair at a very young age.

At an age when other children of the same age can't sit still, he can be quiet and well-behaved without making any noise, which makes people feel pity for him at first sight.

Therefore, Qiao Henian has a very good relationship with the Xiao family. Even the usually cold-faced General Xiao is very caring towards him.

This is the situation, but such a simple explanation does not meet Lu Shen's expectations at all.

If this hadn't happened in the carriage, Lu Shen would have rolled on the ground in anger.

Shi Yi couldn't hold it back any longer and burst into laughter...

Lu Shen became even more dissatisfied and complained, "I am really unlucky to ride in the same carriage with two of you guys."

Qiao Henian suggested nonchalantly: "You can also go outside and ride a horse!"

Lu Shen refused. It was very cold to ride a horse in this weather! He didn't want to.

Qiao Henian shook his head and said enviously, "You are just not satisfied. If I had healthy legs and feet, I would definitely ride a horse happily on this vast grassland."

Lu Shen said with disdain: "Forget it, running in the snow! The cold wind hitting my face feels like a knife cutting my flesh."

What kind of good person would seek trouble when there is nothing wrong?

Shi Yi roasted a circle of chestnuts and peanuts on a small charcoal stove in the middle of the carriage. They were cooked at this time, and the aroma spread little by little in this limited space.

Lu Shen leaned forward and quickly picked up a chestnut with his hand and put it on the side to dry for a while. He kept complaining:

"He Nian, don't think that people with good legs and feet are willing to do anything. Even in this freezing cold weather, people are afraid of the cold, right?"

He tested it with his fingers and found it was not too hot, then asked Qiao Henian: "Do you want to eat it? I'll get you one."

Qiao Henian couldn't continue reading the book, so he simply closed it and handed it over.

Lu Shen rolled his eyes at him, took his book, put a few peanuts and chestnuts on it, and returned it to him.

Qiao Henian placed the book on the quilt between his legs. He peeled off the peanut shells, poured out a few warm peanuts, and ate them with relish.

Lu Shen teased Qiao Henian to Shi Yi:

"Look at him, he can adapt to the local customs. If he were in the valley, Jinse would have peeled the peanut shells for this gentleman and put them on a plate before serving them to him." He was almost feeding him.

Qiao Henian's cold white fingers, as pampered as white jade, gently picked up a peanut and placed it on his cherry-red lips.

The way he eats is like a beautiful painting, so pleasing to the eye!

Shi Yi: As expected, the young man from an aristocratic family has good manners ingrained in his bones. Every move he makes is so elegant, just like a graceful gentleman, making people feel like spring breeze.

Outside the carriage, the sound of horse hooves came from far away, and the guard knocked on the window and reported:

"Young Master, a group of people are coming. The flag in their group looks very similar to the security flag of the Bai Family Chamber of Commerce."

Shi Yi was sitting right at the door of the carriage. She turned around and lifted the thick door curtain a little to prevent the cold wind from blowing in as much as possible.

She saw clearly through the tiny gap that it was indeed her family's North Road Security Flag, and she ordered:

"Stop the car and wait for them to come over."

She closed the door curtain and said to the two people in the carriage, "It should be Ye Qingfeng who is here to pick us up."

Lu Shen said happily: "They came quite quickly. We just entered the grassland."

Qiao Henian didn't say anything. He also felt that Shi Yi's speed of action was unexpected.

Shi Yi disagreed. "They have been operating in the grassland for so many years. If they can't even do this, then the ability of our caravan is too weak."

What kind of equipment did she arm them with!

In this era, the Yanbei caravan's weapons can be said to be top-notch no matter compared with anyone else.

Whether it's weapons or security, if they can't carve out a place for themselves on the grassland with these foundations, then Wei Dong and Ye Qingfeng really should be laid off.

It’s just that just because they didn’t want to in the past, it’s not that they couldn’t!

Qiao Henian and Lu Shen's eyes met and then separated. It seemed that the girl was more confident than they expected.

What a surprise!

Qiao Henian looked out of the palm-sized glass on the carriage window calmly. The people galloping over were very good riders, and the horses they rode were all excellent horses picked from thousands of miles away!

With a team like this, no one will dare to underestimate them wherever they go!

What's more, they had fine bows slung across their backs, uniform steel knives at their sides, and scarves wrapped around their faces and necks to keep warm, so their faces could not be seen clearly.

The people sitting on the horses were not wearing very bulky clothes, but it was obvious that they were not cold.

This is really strange!

Ever since they set foot in Yanbei, the temperature has been so high that they have to put on more clothes every day. It gets even colder after entering the grassland!
