get married first, fall in love later

The two simply ate some meals to fill their stomachs, and went to bed early to rest.

It was a calm night. Ouyang Xi opened her eyes as soon as the rooster crowed. She stretched comfortably and was about to wake up Qian Xiaobao as usual, but when she turned her head, she was already gone. silhouette of man.

"You actually got up earlier than me. Did the sun come out from the west?" Ouyang Xi muttered in surprise, turned over and got out of bed.

Facing the mirror, he briefly tidied up his clothes and hair accessories. After thinking about it, he decided to go out first to look for Qian Xiaobao. Unexpectedly, just two steps away, the door was pushed open from the outside to the inside.

Hearing the sound, Ouyang Xi looked up, and saw Qian Xiaobao walking in with a relaxed face, waving a folding fan.Behind him was Qian San, his subordinate who looked more "asan" in the daytime.

Qian Xiaobao directed Qian San to put the water basin in his hand aside, then leaned forward and whispered something in his ear, watched him turn and leave, then looked at Ouyang Xi and said, "Wake up!" ? Here, I brought you some face wash."

Ouyang Xi stepped forward with some puzzlement and asked, "You got up so early in the morning just to go out and get me a basin of washing water?"

"Why, can't you?" Qian Xiaobao gently closed the folding fan, sat down at the front of the table, took a sip from the water cup, and continued: "The people in this cottage are not those maids who are used to serving us in the mansion. They don't do it themselves. , I’m going to see people in disgrace today.”

Just serve you as usual, I have always been self-sufficient.After Ouyang Xi complained silently in his heart, he still opened his mouth suspiciously and asked, "But you don't need to call Ah San when you go out to fetch water, right?"

Qian Xiaobao smiled at her when he heard the words: "If you don't bring Ah San, who will help me bring in the water basin?"

"Aren't you handless? You'll be exhausted carrying a water basin." Ouyang Xi contradicted unconvincedly, then seemed to remember something, and suddenly leaned forward and asked uncertainly: "No one can serve you now Washing up, you are not thinking about me, are you?"

Qian Xiaobao clapped his hands lightly: "My lady is really smart."

"Hey, haven't you washed your face since you were a child?"

Qian Xiaobao was just teasing her at first, but now looking at her face that believed it was true, his heart became more and more playful, he just put the folding fan on the table leisurely, looked at Ouyang Xi with his hands and said: "Really not, Now there is Mrs. Lao."

Of course Ouyang Xi refused to get used to her stinky problems, so she pulled her sleeves and pulled her to the side of the basin, angrily said: "It's just washing your face, anyone with hands can do it yourself!"

Hearing this, Qian Xiaobao showed a smile of unknown meaning at the corner of his mouth, but he really listened to Ouyang Xi's words and stretched his hands towards the water basin.

Ouyang Xi smiled triumphantly: I don't believe you can't control your temper as a young master.It's just that the complacency has not yet passed, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Qian Xiaobao's wide cuffs were piercing towards the center of the water.She pulled her hands back quickly with sharp eyesight, rolled her wide sleeves to the crook of her arms three or five times angrily, and said bitterly: "The clothes are about to get wet, so I don't know how to put the sleeves on first." Do you want to pull it up?"

Qian Xiaobao looked at her innocent face: "Didn't I tell you that I have never washed myself?"

"I really don't understand what's so difficult about it," Ouyang Xi said, already leaning forward, gently lowering her head with one hand, and reaching into the basin with the other to scoop up clean water, while carefully scrubbing her delicate face , while complaining: "It's just washing your face, a three-year-old child can do it."

The person being served didn't say a word, just bowed his head and let Ouyang Xi operate with his hands up and down.

Ouyang Xi also thought that she was embarrassed by what he said. Seeing that this person who is always high-spirited on weekdays now looks downcast and pleasing to the eye, he wondered if what he said just now was too serious, and his heart suddenly became agitated. Feeling a little guilty, his hands moved gently, and he scrubbed more and more carefully.

The washing work was completed quickly, but Qian Xiaobao still hung her head halfway and said nothing. Ouyang Xi couldn't say anything when she saw this, she just dragged her to sit in front of the dressing table, picked up the comb and recalled the past Mo Xue Helping her comb her hair.

"I can't even wash my face, I guess I can't even comb my hair? Forget it, to save time, let me do it for you. You can learn it when you have a chance." Ouyang Xi muttered, his hands and feet were quick. Helped her comb her hair well, followed Mo Xue's example to tie up the tiara, and then lowered her head to check carefully for any omissions, then looked at the beautiful Qian Xiaobao with satisfaction and nodded: " Well, it's okay, after being tidied up by Miss Ben, it looks even more beautiful."

"I would also like to thank you for your help." Qian Xiaobao smiled at Ouyang Xi through the mirror and said, "My lady's craftsmanship does not seem to be inferior to Mo Xue at all."

"That's right." Ouyang Xi raised his head and looked at her triumphantly, then turned around and went to the water basin to clean himself up.

But Qian Xiaobao showed a successful smirk the moment she turned around: not only is it easy to deceive, it also looks very easy to coax.

The washing incident ended successfully as a small episode. After the two happily ate the breakfast brought by the people in the village, they wandered out for a walk under the slogan of eliminating food.

As soon as he got out, Ouyang Xi was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he forgot to speak.If they didn't guess wrong, they should be on a certain mountain top right now, but what is quite different from what they imagined is that the mountain top in front of them seems to be too flat and wide.At a glance, people who don't know it should still be on the plain.

She raised her eyes and took a rough look. Except for the room she and Qian Xiaobao lived in last night, there are about a dozen similar houses scattered in this village in a semicircle. More than ten acres.Going around the room and going to the back of the house, I saw the vegetable fields that Wang Hu mentioned before, neatly divided into categories, and more than a dozen women of different ages were bending over and bowing their heads, or cleaning insects or pulling weeds. with.And not far from the vegetable field, a group of chickens that looked very lively and excited were surrounded by a wooden fence, which must have been where the eggs last night came from.

Ouyang Xi walked and watched, turned his head to the people around him in surprise and asked, "Hey, Xiaobao, they are pretty good here, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the scenery is pleasant."

Qian Xiaobao nodded slightly noncommittally, and then, as if thinking of something, he leaned forward and said mysteriously: "This is not too big, I think their place is far bigger than it looks."

"What do you mean?" Ouyang Xi asked curiously.

Qian Xiaobao smiled faintly, turned around and led her out of the village.

Ouyang Xi didn't know why, but trotted along, and asked curiously as he walked, "Did you already look at this place while I was away? Just when you came out to wash your face in the morning." , I said that you didn't just come out to fetch water so simply, and you brought Ah San with you, it wasn't an investigation..."

Ouyang Xi muttered all the way, and Qian Xiaobao listened for a while with a smile.After leaving the gate of the village, and walking forward for a short distance, there is a canyon that can only accommodate three or five people in parallel. The mountains on both sides of the canyon are towering, and it seems that you can't see the top when you look up. It's quite a bit of an attitude that one man should be the one man and the other man should not be open.

"Wow!" Ouyang Xi looked at the scenery in front of him and couldn't help sighing again: "Why does this have the feeling of a military fortress, isn't it great?"

Qian Xiaobao raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard this: "It's rare that you still know what a military fortress looks like."

"Cut, what's the matter? Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running? The special effects on TV are almost like this."

"TV? Special effects?"

Ouyang Xi turned around and glared at Qian Xiaobao arrogantly: "Don't you know? A TV is something that can see images, and it will play some dramas that people have arranged in advance, uh...similar to the ones on your stage now. Singing, but you are watching on the spot, we can make some videos of those and watch them at home on TV.”

Qian Xiaobao nodded half-understood, Ouyang Xi smiled appreciatively, and then said: "Special effects, that is, when you are performing these dramas, in order to make the effect look realistic or more beautiful, you don't have to do it in the post-production. Some pictures added."

"It's unbelievable." Qian Xiaobao frowned and thought for a while, and only came to this conclusion.Ouyang Xi said a little brazenly: "Oh, you won't understand this after talking about it. If you have the opportunity to go to our era, you will understand everything!"

While talking, the two of them had already left the canyon slowly, and the road under their feet suddenly became winding and steep.Qian Xiaobao stopped in her tracks, and Ouyang Xi immediately stood there, following her gaze.Thinking about it, the steep and straight road in front of me should be the only way to go down the mountain.It's just that although this road is not as narrow as in the canyon before, it is too vertical and difficult to walk.

Qian Xiaobao stood there and thought for a moment, then turned around and pulled Ouyang Xi over and said, "Okay, there's nothing to see ahead, let's go back."

"Why not? I see another open flat land not far below the road. If you look down, you won't know what it is. Why don't you take a look?"

"No need." Qian Xiaobao shook his head lightly: "If you guessed correctly, the flat ground further down should be another road like this one, and going straight down should be the foot of the mountain where we were robbed last night. place."

Ouyang Xi looked up at her curiously: "How do you know? You and Ah San went to see it?"

"That's not true." Qian Xiaobao smiled lightly: "I 'watched' it on the way to the mountain last night."

"When I came up yesterday, I was obviously blindfolded, and the sky was a bit dark at that time, what do you think?"

Holding the folding fan, Qian Xiaobao pointed at Ouyang Xi's chest lightly: "Of course I read it with my heart."
