Acacia by mistake

Perhaps because the first half of the journey was full of hardships, the rest of the journey for Ah Ran and Qiao Xiangsi can be said to be smooth sailing.During this period, the two people did not mention all kinds of affection, but at noon that day, the group finally arrived at their destination and saw the gate of Linghai City from a distance.

Linghai City has outstanding people and is a well-known prosperous hometown in the North. It connects the East China Sea to the east and Le City to the west, connecting the north and the south.It is said that from here, you can travel [-] miles eastward by boat, across the sea of ​​darkness, and you can reach Penglai Xianshan, where immortals live.Although the legend is absurd, Linghai City is indeed tainted with a three-point fairy spirit. Although it is located in the north, the scenery is as beautiful as the south of the Yangtze River, and its rich products are famous all over the world.

This year's Linghai City is extremely lively.The rime hanging on the tree branches was shaken off by the rushing traffic, and fell to the ground, throwing out pieces of crystal ice.Under the sunlight, the barrenness of winter adds a bit of gorgeous color.

"It's so lively." Ah Ran lay by the window of the carriage, pricked up her ears to listen to the voices outside the carriage, "It's like a festival!"

Along the way, it was freezing cold, but inside the carriage was a warm spring.Qiao Xiangsi was really proud of her spring breeze, she was eating snacks satiatedly, and would stuff one into Ah Ran's mouth from time to time.

"Is Meng Shaoyou's marriage considered a festival?" Qiao Xiangsi tilted her head, broke the white and glutinous chestnut cake into small pieces, and fed them to A Ran, "There are many people from all over the world who come to congratulate, and there are also a few officials. No. When we enter the city, if you want to go out to play, you have to call me. Otherwise, there are so many people mixed with dragons and snakes, I don’t even know you were kidnapped.”

Ah Ran slowly ate the chestnut cake, and felt that it was too sweet, so she pursed her lips and smiled: "Who cares about abducting me. It's you——you are so beautiful. If someone likes you, I don't know if I can snatch it away." .”

Under Qiao Xiangsi's unremitting efforts and enthusiasm, Ah Ran's heart gradually opened up unconsciously, and she no longer kept everything in her heart like in the past.

Hearing Ah Ran express her jealousy so straightforwardly, Qiao Xiangsi was overjoyed, and hummed triumphantly: "It's good that you know, why don't you hurry up and please me."

The two had gotten used to playing around recently, so Aran leaned over, kissed Qiao Xiangsi on the face carelessly, and replied, "I'm pleasing you."

His kiss still smelled of chestnut cake, soft and sweet.As expected, Qiao Xiangsi was successfully pleasing her, and she was overjoyed, and said generously, "Well, to prevent this kind of thing from happening, I'd better wear a mask for the next few days."

"Hmm..." Ah Ran hesitated, "But you are so pretty, it's a pity to cover your face."

"What's the pity, you think I'm pretty, isn't that enough?" Qiao Xiangsi didn't think so.

Ah Ran's miser mentality has gradually changed.In the past, he was always worried that his things would be robbed, and no matter what he got, he would hide it secretly and guard it so that no one would see it; but now, Qiao Xiangsi kept telling him patiently that everything he owned would not be Being taken casually by others, over time, he developed a desire to show off.Qiao Xiangsi is so good, of course everyone should know.But such a good Qiao Xiangsi belonged to him. Just thinking about this idea can make Ah Ran so happy that his whole body seems to swell.

However, this feeling was too unfamiliar to Aran.He leaned into Qiao Xiangsi's ear and muttered for a long time before Qiao Xiangsi understood what he meant.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to have such thoughts." Qiao Xiangsi joked.

When it comes to showing off, he is much more proficient and skilled than Ah Ran.After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "There is an interesting legend in Linghai City—there are two malachite stone sculptures near the city gate, on the way we must pass. It is said that these two stone sculptures were carved by immortals and are quite spiritual. Peacocks love beauty the most. If an ugly man passes by with his face hidden, he will let out a long cry of ridicule; and if a peerless beauty passes by, he can't help but show off his tail—"

"A peacock made of stone can also open its tail?!" Ah Ran had never heard of it, and deeply hated that she was blind at this time and could not see such a strange scene.

Qiao Xiangsi laughed: "How is that possible? Let's just say that." Seeing Ah Ran's disappointment, he added: "There are so many people coming and going in this city, the guards will inevitably check the appearance of those who enter the city. There are always many conflicts. I don’t know when this saying became popular, but people who entered the city took the initiative to show their appearance and cooperated with the guards to check.”

"Are you afraid of the peacock singing?" Aran couldn't help laughing: "How could such a thing happen? Who came up with this idea?"

"Who knows, that must be a narrow-minded ghost." Qiao Xiangsi said with a smile, "But, now is the right time. I originally planned to go to the city in a low-key way, but now I have to make a high-key one, show my face in front of the peacock, and give us Aran Earn some face."

There was a long queue at the gate of Linghai City.Because a major event was about to happen in the city, many dignitaries gathered here. In order to prevent the villains from taking advantage of troubled waters and sneaking into the city to cause chaos, the gate guards worked overtime to check everyone entering the city one by one.

At this moment, a group of imposing convoy came into everyone's sight without haste.

The most eye-catching thing is the huge and luxurious carriage, and the fat and strong horses, and the strong and capable guards all show the identity of the owner of the team.Taking a closer look, the "Joe" banner in front of the convoy was ordinary people, how could anyone not know?So they started talking about it.

The first thing Ah Ran heard was all kinds of envious comments.

"The Qiao family, it's really amazing." He said sincerely.

"You sound like an outsider." Qiao Xiangsi was busy arranging her hair, "You will also be part of Qiao's family in the future. Well, you are also very powerful."

"I?"

Ah Ran never expected what Qiao Xiangsi said.Before, he talked all kinds of things on the road, and finally persuaded Qiao Xiangsi not to take him to meet his family so soon.Fortunately, when the two went to the city this time, Qiao Xiangsi planned to take Aran to treat his illness first, and Qiao Xiangsi's parents did not live together, so they could delay it for a while.

Qiao Xiangsi now knew where Ah Ran's heart knot was, and thought that she could use actions to resolve it, so she didn't waste her words, she just said: "You don't want to be Qiao's family, I can be your family. But you don't know yet What's your last name?"

"I--"

Qiao Xiangsi stopped Ah Ran's words, and put her hand on his lips: "Hush, listen carefully. I'm going out."

Ah Ran shut her mouth and listened carefully to everyone's reactions.

This was the first time that Qiao Xiangsi appeared in front of people without wearing a mask.

Ah Ran couldn't see what color clothes Qiao Xiangsi was wearing, what accessories she was wearing, and what hair crown she was wearing—

But he heard clearly that the moment Qiao Xiangsi appeared, there was a lot of voices and the crowd was boiling.
