On the way, Mu Qingcheng asked, "Yun Qing, are we really going to town?"
Yun Qing wrote in the notebook: "This place is too close to Laochen Village and it's not safe. Let's go to town first to find a doctor to treat Xiao Hei's injuries!"
Yun Qing wanted to know where the other Dragon Shadow Guards were. He still had many things to ask Xiao Hei, and he had to wake up.
Mu Qingcheng thought this was a good thing. They had no medicine left, so they had to find an ordinary doctor to see Xiao Hei.
"But what if the doctor asks what medicine Xiao Hei is taking? Where does the medicine come from? What should we do?" Mu Qingcheng was a little worried. This was ancient times, and there were no Western medicines.
Yun Qing had already thought about it for her. He curled the corners of his mouth and wrote leisurely.
"Just say that you met a hermit in the mountains who gave you medicine."
"Then if someone asks who the master is, how should I answer?"
Yun Qing smiled secretly and wrote, "Then I'll have to rely on you to make it up."
"Ah?" That's it! Mu Qingcheng snorted at Yun Qing twice, expressing her dissatisfaction.
"But we don't have any money! How can we get Xiao Hei treated?"
Making up stories was a piece of cake, but having no money was truly embarrassing. She didn't even have a dollar, and even if she did, she wouldn't have anywhere to spend it.
She asked Yun Qing: "Do you have money?"
Unexpectedly, Yun Qing casually took out a bag from his arms and threw it to Mu Qingcheng. Mu Qingcheng took it and felt it was heavy in her hand. When she looked at it again, she felt that it looked familiar.
"Isn't this Xiao Hei's money? How can you, as a boss, take your employees' money?"
Yun Qing pondered the words "superior" and "employee," and roughly understood that they referred to superiors and subordinates. But he still gave her a strange look. He couldn't see it, either. Was there something wrong with this girl's brain? Even at this hour, she was still pretending to be so noble.
Yun Qing gritted his teeth and wrote another word on the notebook: "Borrow!"
Mu Qingcheng looked at it and nodded with satisfaction, saying, "That's pretty good. You must remember to return it!"
Yun Qing was both angry and amused. It turned out that he was the one who borrowed the money, so he was the only one who had to pay it back. It had nothing to do with her.
Anyway, Mu Qingcheng no longer felt guilty. She weighed her purse, poured out the silver and counted it. There were six silver cakes that were wide at both ends and narrow in the middle, and fifteen small pieces of silver left. This should be a lot of money!
She asked Yun Qing, "How much money is in here?"
Yun Qing reached out and pinched his brows habitually, complaining in his heart, "Didn't you count it? It seems that this girl doesn't even know silver and money. Then don't they use silver there? What do they use to trade?"
He wrote helplessly: "Forty-five taels of silver."
Mu Qingcheng roughly understood that this silver cake was five taels, and the remaining small pieces of silver were one tael each.
"Forty-five taels, that sounds like a lot. What can I buy with it?"
Yun Qing was a bit embarrassed. How could he explain this? He had never spent much money in his life. The few times he spent money were on birthday gifts for his master, which were either several thousand or tens of thousands of taels. He had never spent forty-five taels of silver on anything!
Mu Qingcheng saw Yun Qing's embarrassed look and thought that forty-five taels of silver was not a lot!
"Is it enough to buy two meals? Or two sets of clothes?"
Yun Qing frowned even more tightly. He had heard that a meal at Xiangyunlou, the most expensive restaurant in Beijing, cost around one thousand yuan, and that was for ordinary meals.
He never paid much attention to food and clothing. He had an embroiderer who made clothes and a cook in his house. He had never gone out to buy clothes, but he knew that the most common brocade cost 100 taels per piece. The 45 taels they had was probably not enough to cover the labor costs!
Yun Qing was also a little worried. The money was indeed too little!
Mu Qingcheng looked at her clothes, which were already extremely dirty and looked strange. As soon as the sun rose, it would definitely attract onlookers.
"Yunqing, my...my clothes are too dirty. It's not good to go into the city like this!"
Yun Qing suddenly remembered that this girl was wearing strange clothes! Her clothes would make people know that she was not a local and might even doubt her origins.
After walking for a cup of tea, Yun Qing heard the sound of flowing water ahead, so he stopped the ox cart by the river bank.
Mu Qingcheng looked at the broad river before her. Not far away stood a stone bridge, spanning both banks. That must be the stone bridge Xiaocao mentioned. Across the stone bridge lay Dahe Village. She hadn't expected the two villages to be so close. Sooner or later, Xiaocao would surely be found by her biological father and stepmother!
Mu Qingcheng sighed in her heart when she thought of the poor girl. It was a pity that she had no ability to help Xiaocao.
"Yunqing, just walk a little further and you will reach the stone bridge. Why did you stop?"
Yun Qing took off his outer robe and handed it to Mu Qingcheng. Mu Qingcheng was a little stunned: "Why are you giving me clothes?"
Yun Qing took her hand and wrote the words "you wear" on her palm. Mu Qingcheng instantly understood what he meant.
He was only wearing the long gown with dark patterns inside. Although it was a bit thin, it was considered normal attire, unlike her who was wearing strange clothes.
Mu Qingcheng didn't refuse and immediately put the robe on to try it out. Wow! It instantly turned into a long skirt that dragged on the ground. Even when she put it on top of her flight suit, it still looked very loose, making it look even more out of place.
"This dress is too big for me and too long. It's inconvenient for me to walk. Can I make it shorter?"
Yun Qing nodded and told her to change it as she pleased.
Mu Qingcheng searched her mind. She had seen many fashion show videos before, where designers simply wrapped a piece of fabric around a model and instantly transformed her into a fashionable dress. Yun Qing's gown was made of thick fabric and was spacious, giving her plenty of room to express herself.
She gestured and cut off the part that was overgrown at the bottom. The larger piece of cloth could not be wasted, so she folded both sides in half to make a belt.
She took off her flight suit top, leaving only a short-sleeved T-shirt underneath. It was a bit chilly, but she endured it to avoid looking too different. She put on a shortened robe, wrapped it tightly around her, and fashioned a belt from the scraps of fabric to accentuate her slender waist. The hem was loose enough to hold her legs, and the length perfectly covered her shoes. She was wearing a pair of white sneakers from an international brand, which, without looking at the full length, matched the robe quite well.
I felt pretty good after walking a few steps, so I came to the water's edge and used the river as a mirror to look at my own reflection. Didn't I instantly turn into a beauty in ancient costume?
It’s this hair that’s hard to describe.
Yun Qing was already squatting by the river, getting ready. Mu Qingcheng followed his example, washing her face, combing her hair with her hands, and then gathering it all on top of her head into a bun. She looked like a classic beauty.
The first rays of morning light gradually appeared on the horizon, tearing a huge hole in the darkness, and the light was finally released. The morning light was like a romantic note in a piece of music, playing a new chapter.
The earth was peaceful. Yun Qing and Mu Qingcheng had packed up, so they no longer looked like savages who had just come down the mountain, but if you looked closely, you could still see that they looked a little disheveled.
The sleeves of Yun Qing's clothes were too long for Mu Qingcheng, so she had to roll them up several times before she could barely show her hands.
She couldn't bear to throw away the flight suit jacket she took off, so she folded it and put it at the bottom of the basket, covering it with fruit.
Yun Qing was feeding Xiao Hei water. Mu Qingcheng crushed the biscuits, put them in a plastic bowl, poured water into it to make a paste, and asked Yun Qing to feed it to Xiao Hei. They have been using this method to keep Xiao Hei alive these days, but it is not a long-term solution after all. They still have to find a way to sneak into the city and find a doctor for Xiao Hei.
