Xiaotan didn't tell him anything about the city these days. He was a little curious and wanted to know what happened these days. But Xiaotan was also very busy these days, and neither of them had free time to meet.

It’s time to discuss the strategy. We really need to talk about it these days, otherwise the strategy will be shelved and his efforts will be in vain.

Jing Yuan felt that he already knew enough about this village. He had basically met all the people in the village and understood their opinions. He felt confident in his heart.

At least they are all very dissatisfied with the current monarch and are satisfied with themselves. This is enough. When the time comes for the uprising, he will have great power. He is bound to win the position of monarch, but he just doesn't have the time.

"This bottle is so beautiful. Jing Yuan has such a good taste."

Chu Xia entered the room, holding a bottle in her hand and talking to herself. She looked like a girl in love who received a gift from the person she liked and couldn't put it down.

She put the flowers on the table into the bottle and adjusted the position of the flowers. She admired her results and was extremely satisfied.

She placed the vase on the table in her room, and placed a lot of tea sets around it, so that when she drank tea, she could still look at the flowers, which was pleasing to the eye.

"It's done."

She clapped her hands and smiled with satisfaction. Then she looked in the mirror and saw that her appearance was okay and not messy. Then she was ready to go find Jing Yuan, fearing that he would be impatient and hungry.

After all, they had been busy all afternoon. Men tend to get hungry easily, and after doing so much work, Chu Xia went out.

After walking for a while, I saw that the sky was getting dark, and I didn't know if there was any food.

Arriving at Jingyuan's door, she knocked.

Knock knock…

Jing Yuan was drinking tea when he heard a knock on the door. Knowing that it was Chu Xia who was coming, he hurried to open the door.

"Chu Xia, you're here."

Jing Yuan opened the door and let Chu Xia in. He poured her a glass of water and Chu Xia took a sip.

"Are you hungry? You haven't eaten anything all afternoon."

Chu Xia asked him with concern, and Jing Yuan shook his head. He was indeed not hungry. He was already half full after drinking water. But he did have to eat, otherwise he would be hungry at night.

"Don't be hungry tonight, let's go eat."

"Okay, then let's go to the kitchen and see if there is any food left."

Chu Xia nodded and put the cup down. Jing Yuan simply packed it up and left the room with Chu Xia.

The two of them went to the kitchen, where the light was still on.

"Is there anyone else? It's so late."

Chu Xia asked doubtfully, and Jing Yuan was also very surprised. It was so late. Logically speaking, everyone should have finished eating. The lights should be off, so why were they still on?

After they walked in, they pushed the door open and entered.

There were really people inside, a few peasant women, making dumplings inside.

"Auntie, you are so late, why haven't you gone back yet?"

Chu Xia asked with concern why they hadn't rested yet and were still busy.

The peasant women saw them and said with a smile.

"You two haven't eaten yet. I'm not afraid that you won't have anything to eat. I'll make you something to eat quickly. I don't know when you will come back, so I'll make some dumplings first. When did you come and when were you making them?

Don’t worry about letting it cool down.”

These words warmed up Chu Xia. None of her family had been so kind to her. She was really touched.

"Thank you, thank you very much."

Her eye circles were a little red, and she didn't know how to express her gratitude. Jing Yuan was also very touched. The farmers here are really the kindest and simplest ones he has ever seen. They are all good people here and do things that are considerate of others.

Things are very warm and beautiful.

This is what he has always wanted to do, but everyone is greedy, but the people here are different. They are truly simple and kind.

"You guys put these down first and eat them first. If it's not enough, we'll make some more dumplings."

"Okay, thank you. Thank you so much. We can't even repay you."

Chu Xia felt grateful, but didn't know how to express it. She didn't like to say sensational words, so she could only say it this way. Jing Yuan was also like this, not good at expressing his feelings.

The two of them poured raw water into the pot, and after it boiled, they lowered the dumplings they had made into the pot. After a while, the swollen dumplings floated up one by one, making people drool just by looking at them.

Chu Xia found a big rice spoon and stirred it. The aroma of the noodles floated out, and she felt extremely hungry. The same happened to Jing Yuan on the side. He had never eaten dumplings before, and he wanted to drool just looking at it.

The dumplings were already cooked. Chu Xia took them out and put them in cold water to cool down. Chu Xia took out a small bowl, mixed some sauce, handed it to Jing Yuan, and also took the dumplings.

past.

Jing Yuan looked at the hot rice and felt really hungry. He picked up his chopsticks and ate quickly.

"Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry, there is still more."

Chu Xia looked at him devouring the food and talked to him with a smile. Then she turned around and went about her own business. She also took out her own dumplings, and then sat on the other side talking to the peasant women while eating.

.

"Chu Xia, how are you? It's okay. Can you get used to it?"

A peasant woman asked Chu Xia, fearing that she would not be used to such a simple meal, but the meal was indeed good. Although it did not have any fishy taste, it was really healthy food. Chu Xia thought the meal was quite delicious and nodded with satisfaction.

, his mouth never stopped.

“Very delicious, really.”

She was still chewing dumplings and talking indistinctly. But these women made them laugh. They looked so happy and warm, and Jing Yuan also came over and sat next to them.

"Auntie, the dumplings you make are very delicious. I have never tasted such delicious ones."

Jing Yuan praised him, almost finishing his bowl of dumplings. This meal was really good, and he was worried that he would miss it if he didn't have such a meal when he returned to the city.

After finishing the meal, Chu Xia cleaned the dishes and chopsticks, and Jing Yuan sat there chatting with the women.

"What do you think of our current monarch?"

He wanted to know what the people think now and what they really think in their hearts. So he asked. Although women are not involved in political affairs, Jing Yuan felt that women also had the right to participate.

"Those of us who are wives don't know much about the affairs of this court, but I heard that this monarch is quite tyrannical."

A woman said that they usually take care of their children, do cooking, and do laundry, which is basically a stable life. Men also go out to farm. They don’t go to the city very often, and it’s very remote here. Although there are taxes, but

They can still afford to support themselves.

Jing Yuan nodded and had no choice but to continue asking.

The women also made a lot of dumplings for everyone to eat tomorrow. After finishing their work, they left the kitchen.

Only Chu Xia and Jing Yuan are left here.

"It's a bit late, should we go back?"

Jing Yuan asked Chu Xia, but they had just finished eating, and if they went back to rest like this, their stomachs would definitely feel uncomfortable. Chu Xia didn't want to go back, so he hesitated and said nothing.

"How about... let's go to the roof to get some fresh air? We just finished eating and if we sleep like this, I'm afraid my stomach will feel uncomfortable."

Chu Xia hesitated for a while before saying this. She wanted to enjoy the evening breeze and look at the stars in the sky. She remembered that the last time she saw the night view was a long time ago.

At that time, she was still the person in charge of the Tiandao Festival, and she was a person respected and admired by everyone. Her family also loved her very much and obeyed her orders. However, things are different now. She is not as good as before.

Different status means different treatment.

Jing Yuan agreed to her, and then the two of them turned off the lights in the kitchen, climbed up to the roof, and sat there.

The night is beautiful, the sky is dark blue, and there are many stars on it, which are very shining.

"I heard that the stars in the sky are the souls of everyone who has passed away. Is there anyone you miss very much?"

Chu Xia looked at the sky, raised her head and spoke. Jing Yuan sat next to her, looking at her profile quietly. Jing Yuan was thinking about her question.

"The person I miss? My parents."

Jing Yuan thought about it for a while. He had no relatives in the human world. His parents were both gods in the divine realm, but they passed away a long time ago. To be more precise, they were sacrificed. In order to maintain the safety of the divine realm, during the war with the demon realm

, died in battle.

He let out a long sigh, his eyes were very sad, and he felt really sad when he thought of what happened in the past.

Chu Xia turned her head and looked at Jing Yuan, feeling a little sorry for him.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have asked about your sadness."

She was very sorry and felt that her behavior was indeed inappropriate. Jing Yuan smiled bitterly.

"It's okay, I don't care, I just miss them a little bit."

For a long time, he wanted to return to the God's Realm, but now his ability is not enough, and his cultivation has not reached the point of returning to the God's Realm. Therefore, he needs to speed up his speed and can't waste time here.

To regain the throne as king, this matter must be stepped up.

The two sat like this for a long time, and the air gradually became cooler.

"It's a little cold, let's go back."

Chu Xia was wearing very thin clothes, and the night wind made her feel a little cold. She rubbed her arms and said to Jing Yuan.

"Okay, I'll take you back."

Jing Yuan stood up and helped Chu Xia up. This is the roof of the house, which is not particularly flat. If someone is not careful, they may fall down.

"Slow down and look at your feet."

Jing Yuan supported Chu Xia, and the two of them walked slowly down. After finally going down, Chu Xia felt tired and wanted to go back to rest.

As the two of them walked, Jing Yuan sent her back to the room. Seeing Chu Xia enter the room, Jing Yuan left with peace of mind.
