Even though I was dressed as an ugly woman, I was still forced to love by all kinds of big guys
Chapter 20: Settling Down in the Imperial City
After going through many hardships, he finally arrived at the imperial city.
Li Xinglan patted Su Su's little head, indicating that they wouldn't have to go out in the wind and rain anymore.
He arranged for Blind Chen to go and look at the house, but he himself was not idle either, as he went out to check the land and exchange it for cash.
Su Su and Ergou rested in the inn.
After watching the two leave, Su Su held a bowl of freshly boiled medicine and called Er Gou, "Gouzi, get up and drink the medicine."
Ergou was wrapped in gauze again and was half lying on the head of the bed, still looking a little weak.
Pale lips, slightly wrinkled brows, this broken gratitude made Su Su's maternal love erupt like a volcano.
She handed him the medicine and said, "Be good, Ergou. Drink this medicine and you'll get better quickly. It's not bitter."
Ergou took the medicine and drank it in one gulp without any hesitation, which caused Su Su to praise him again.
"Our Ergou is so awesome!"
In this situation, he was really speechless.
He raised his eyelids and glanced at Su Su out of the corner of his eye. He saw that she was looking back at him with a loving face, and her slightly frown gradually relaxed.
It's numb, it's really numb.
Whatever, destroy it.
Ergou lay down silently, turned over, and left Su Su with his back.
Looking at his somewhat thin back, Su Su thought to herself, this child is too introverted. She needs to let him make more friends and be more sunny in the future.
Holding the empty bowl, he retreated and returned to the next room.
The table was filled with delicious food, all of which were signature dishes that Gou Ge had asked the restaurant to make before he left.
Su Su picked up a delicate little dessert. The outer shell was crispy and crumbly. He took a bite and found the sweet and sour hawthorn filling inside.
Sweetness finally comes after hardship, my family! Su Su burst into tears.
Two months ago, I was so poor that I had to eat every meal I could get. Now, I can live in the best inn in the imperial city, stay in the most luxurious suite, and eat the most exquisite and delicious meals. It feels like a dream.
She opened the window and sat by it, holding an appetizer, watching the hustle and bustle downstairs. The prosperous scene was like heaven.
The cruel war seems to have nothing to do with this place.
There are no piles of refugees, no people starving, no resentment, and no wailing everywhere. It looks very peaceful.
Looking at the smiles on people's faces, Su Su sighed.
She seemed to always remember the scene where she hid behind Li Xinglan, with terrified eyes, watching people fighting for a few wild vegetables.
Fortunately, all this is over!
Shaking her head and putting these little pretentious thoughts behind her, Su Su leaned against the window.
Everything is slowly getting better, and Ergou seems to be gradually letting down his guard against them, and even has some trust in them.
Thinking of Ergou drinking the medicine without hesitation, Su Su confirmed her thoughts. Well, there must be a little trust in him, and he saved her at all costs.
Maybe one day, he would be willing to tell her his real name.
She always felt that Ergou should have a nice name.
She also secretly swore in her heart, Big Dog, Second Dog, I will also try my best to protect you.
As the sun sets, the afterglow faintly casts its light on the red bricks and green tiles. Su Su lies on the windowsill, about to fall asleep.
Finally, two familiar figures appeared in the crowd.
"Brother Gou! Uncle Chen!" Su Su stood up and waved her right hand happily at the two people downstairs at the window.
The afterglow hit her head, as if it was coated with a layer of golden light.
Li Xinglan looked up. Although he couldn't see her face clearly, the smile on her face was clearly imprinted in his mind.
He raised his hand and responded to her with a smile, his red lips slightly curled up, his beauty without boundaries attracted the girls around him to stop and look at him sideways.
Su Su was also amazed by Li Xinglan's beauty. Even though she could see it every day, she couldn't help but marvel at it.
The golden light of the sun shone on his body, and he became a background board. He looked like a handsome, dazzling, sun god.
"Apollo."
Li Xinglan lifted the edge of his robe, sat down at the table, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.
Seeing Su Su staring at him like a crazy fan again, he said with disgust: "Ah? What pineapple? What the hell is this?"
Su Su withdrew her gaze and a look of disgust appeared on her face.
Damn, sometimes I really want to sew Li Goudan’s mouth shut and make him a quiet, mute groom.
"What's that expression on your face? I'm asking you, Wang Xiaocui."
"Have you ever eaten a pineapple? It's a yellow fruit, about the size of a cantaloupe, cylindrical, with green, serrated leaves on top and a skin that looks like fish scales."
Su Su rolled her eyes and responded incoherently.
Sometimes she really suspected that Li Xinglan was a straight man.
It's a pity that he has the face of a scumbag with high emotional intelligence.
"There are such rare fruits? I didn't expect that our Xiao Cui has seen a bit of the world."
Li Xinglan's tone was provocative, but in his mind he was silently imagining what this strange fruit should look like.
After dinner, he told Su Su to have a good rest and that they could move to their new home as early as tomorrow.
After saying that, he ran away again, not knowing where he went, leaving a mess on the table.
On the second day, the four of them stood in front of a mansion surrounded by red walls and with a bright red lacquered gate.
According to Blind Chen, this is a courtyard house with two entrances and exits. Although it is not big, it is considered a wealthy family in the imperial city where every inch of land is valuable.
It’s great to have a safe home!
Su Su couldn't stop smiling, holding the small package in her arms, and followed Li Xinglan with a click.
She looked around curiously, this was where she would live in the future.
Li Xinglan put his hands behind his back and walked with an arrogant gait, like a lord strolling in the garden, with a cocky look on his face.
"How is it, do you like it?" he asked.
"I like it!" Su Su was very surprised to see that there was a lotus pond in the yard and nodded heavily.
She ran towards the lotus pond with light steps.
It is the blooming season now. Water droplets are sparkling on the thick lotus leaves, and the blooming lotus flowers are gorgeous and tempting.
"This is great too!"
There were small fish in the pond. When they heard Su Su's voice, they swam away, leaving behind shimmering water.
Li Xinglan followed her and joked, "What's that? We're new here, so we shouldn't be too ostentatious. Otherwise, I'll have to build you a new one according to the standards of the imperial palace."
Su Su smiled, feeling extremely happy. She finally had a home in this strange world!
Emotions are contagious. Seeing her smiling face, Li Xinglan also raised the corners of his lips, still as beautiful as ever.
"Hehe, I said Su Su would like this." Blind Chen was also happy. Not only did he have a place to live, but he also felt the satisfaction of having his achievements recognized by others.
He arranged everything like a head of household, "You pick out your rooms first. I'll go out and buy some ingredients. I'll cook the night and light the first fire in the house!"
"That's great! Uncle Chen's cooking is the best in the world!" Su Su flattered him generously, causing Blind Chen to laugh so hard that his face was covered with wrinkles.
At some point, the face of Blind Chen, who used to look skinny and cunning, became much more honest.
He laughed and said, "Haha, you're not exaggerating! Okay! Uncle Chen will grill you your favorite roast chicken today!"
"Uncle Chen is awesome!" Su Su cheered.
The happy scene is reflected in the water, so wonderful and harmonious.
This will be their home from now on.
