Each world be

On the streets of Baiyun County.

"Gu Xiao, do you want to eat candied haws?" Shi Qing asked crisply, looking at the vendor selling candied haws in front.

"I think you want to eat it." Gu Xiao glanced at the girl who was looking forward to it.

The girl snorted softly, skipped over, and soon came back with a candied haws.

"Here, try it." She handed the candied haws to his mouth.

Gu Xiao frowned in disdain and refused: "This must be too sweet, I won't eat it!"

"You can try it, the sweet ones are delicious too." Shi Qing held up the candied haws relentlessly.

"In that case, I'll just eat one."

Gu Xiao pretended to be reluctant to refuse and opened his mouth to bite off the first bright red candied haws.

It is incredibly sweet when you put it in your mouth, like honey, sweet and sticky.

However, as you go further into the aroma, you'll notice a slightly sour taste, which is hawthorn.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" The girl looked at his reaction expectantly.

"It tastes sour and sweet, just okay." Gu Xiao said with a nonchalant expression.

Shi Qing looked at him suspiciously, and gently bit the second one with her pink lips.

The girl's moist, plump pink lips and the brightly colored candied haws reflected in Gu Xiao's eyes, and he suddenly felt his breathing stagnate.

"Humph, it's obviously delicious, but you don't know how to enjoy delicious food!"

Shi Qing savored it carefully, then rolled her eyes at him, suddenly turned her head and continued walking forward.

"Okay, it's my fault for having no taste." Gu Xiao apologized with a smile while holding the horse from behind.

There was no sign of admitting fault on his face.

Shi Qing saw that he was admitting his mistake in a perfunctory manner and still ignored him.

"Sir, please buy some jewelry for the lady. I guarantee she won't be angry."

A roadside vendor saw this and took the opportunity to sell his products.

Shi Qing looked back and saw that Gu Xiao had already stopped.

She stood there and snorted coldly: "Who is his wife?"

Gu Xiao chuckled, his eyebrows slightly raised, "My wife is a little shy."

"Yes, I understand."

The vendor winked at him and said, "Sir, what do you think of this one? It's brightly colored and will definitely look good on your wife!"

Looking at the bright red hairpin, Gu Xiao shook his head, "She doesn't like things that are too bright."

Suddenly I noticed a white gardenia hairpin, the color of which was like jade.

In addition to the two flowers, there are small light green leaves with tiny beads underneath, which are small and elegant.

His heart moved, and he picked up the hairpin, "This one."

After standing there waiting for him for a long time, Shi Qing pouted slightly in dissatisfaction, "What are you buying so slowly?"

"I didn't buy anything, I just looked around." Gu Xiao said calmly, "Let's go back, it's getting late."

Hearing this, Shi Qing looked at the sky, the sun was setting in the west, "Then let's go."

It was already dark when we returned to the wooden house.

When the lights are turned on, the orange-yellow light is warm and bright.

The two of them took the pile of things they bought, made the bed, and then looked at each other awkwardly.

"Since there is only one room, let's squeeze in." Shi Qing said unnaturally, his eyes drifting away into the distance.

"Of course. Do you want me to sleep outside?" Gu Xiao looked at her in surprise.

"How could that be!" She denied it immediately, and then said seriously, "But I'll sleep on the bed and you'll sleep on the floor, and you're not allowed to touch me."

"What are you thinking? I'm a gentleman." Gu Xiao patted her head.

"That's better." The girl snorted softly, got on the bed lively, took off her coat and lay down with her back to him.

Gu Xiao looked at her tenderly, and also lay down on the floor, covered with the newly bought quilt, silently watching the girl's back.

My heart has never felt so at ease and secure, as if it were filled with honey, sweet and happy.

He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep with a smile on his lips.

Hearing his breathing gradually become steady, Shi Qing gently turned over.

I looked at his blurry face quietly in the moonlight through the window and said softly, "Good night, Gu Xiao."

_

"Wake up, you lazy bastard!"

Shi Qing struggled to open his hazy eyes, only to see a handsome face.

She couldn't help but close her eyes, with no intention of getting up.

Gu Xiao watched her fall asleep again, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "A Qing, get up and have breakfast before going back to sleep."

"I don't want to eat..." She muttered, but her eyelids were tightly closed.

Gu Xiao also understood that she must have been tired from traveling recently, so he tiptoed out and gently closed the door.

After breakfast, he took out the blue notebook and carefully read and studied the sword techniques in the book.

Then, he picked up the sword next to him and went out.

The sun is shining brightly outside.

Shi Qing on the bed finally moved. She opened her eyes and looked at the strange room in front of her in confusion.

My thoughts slowly return.

She sat up and looked at the empty bed and the closed door.

After a while, she walked out in a daze, "Gu Xiao?"

At this time, Gu Xiao just pushed the door open from outside, and seeing her bewildered face, he said jokingly, "Finally woke up."

Seeing that she was still a little slow to react, Gu Xiao sneered and pulled her out, "There is water outside, go wash your face first, I'll go cook."

Shi Qing obediently did as he was told, and only after washing his face did he regain consciousness.

"I'm hungry." She came in and said crisply.

"There are some flower cakes on the table. You can fill your stomach first. I'll go cook. It will be ready soon."

Gu Xiao was busy working while talking to her, without any impatience on his face.

After eating the flower cake, the hunger in my stomach really disappeared.

She wiped her fingers, went to the small kitchen outside, and leaned close to Gu Xiao, "What can I do?"

"There's nothing for you to do. Just go out and take a look around and get familiar with the surroundings."

Gu Xiao chuckled, taking the time to look at her lovingly, while his hands skillfully cut the ingredients.

"Okay." Seeing that he was in control of the situation, Shi Qing didn't force it.

She walked out, then turned back and said, "If you need help, call me. I won't go far."

"I know." He smiled helplessly.

After hearing his assurance, Shi Qing went out for a walk with peace of mind.

The sun was shining brightly outside, shining on the green branches and casting mottled shadows on the ground.

The place where they were was flat.

There is a small stream on the right, with abundant and clear water. The land around the house can be cultivated to grow some flowers, plants and vegetables.

The system said without emotion: [Host, you will die in less than a month. By then, the vegetables you planted may not even sprout.]

Shi Qing: [What do you, a machine, know? Growing vegetables is the genetic tradition of mankind.]

The system pondered: [My database doesn't seem to have recorded this sentence.]

Shi Qing said mercilessly: [Then you should upgrade after you return this time.]

After a while, Shi Qing was attracted by the smell of food coming from the house.

"I didn't expect you were good at cooking!"

Biting the crispy meat in his mouth, Shi Qing's eyes lit up, "Your future wife must be a very good person, to be blessed enough to eat the food you cook."

"You are too conceited." Gu Xiao looked at her with a faint smile.

"Why am I so conceited? I clearly said--" Shi Qing suddenly reacted and gave him a shy and annoyed look, thinking he was taking advantage of her.

Seeing her being humiliated, Gu Xiao laughed, his angular and handsome face showing a wanton and bright smile.

Unable to convince him, Shi Qing had to change the subject, "Gu Xiao, let's go hunting in the mountains later."

"Do you want to eat meat?" Gu Xiao asked her with a raised eyebrow.

"No, I think since we are going to live here, we can't just sit there and do nothing. So, let's go hunting and sell some money."

"Ah Qing, don't worry, I still have money." Gu Xiao explained with a helpless smile, "I have traveled around the world for many years, and I have some ways to make money."

For example, the last time he secretly protected Yin Xinyue, he was hired by Governor Yin. For a wealthy family like this, the bounty would naturally be high.

However, he did not intend to tell Shi Qing about this, for fear of making her sad.

"Really? You are not lying to me." Shi Qing said in disbelief, "I won't laugh at you if you are poor. I won't leave anyway."

"A Qing, don't worry, I really have money." Gu Xiao smiled helplessly. Why didn't he believe it?

"Then tell me if you have no money, and we can make money together." The girl was still skeptical.

"it is good."
