Ren Qingrui's pretty face was stunned, and she subconsciously pointed at herself with her finger.
"Ah? I...I'm staying?"
Seeing the stunned expression on the beautiful lady's pretty face, Liu Mingzhi smiled and nodded.
"Yes, please stay for a while, brother, I have something to tell you."
After Ren Qingrui reacted, her pretty face turned red and she nodded.
"Hey, my sister understands."
Seeing this, Qi Yun, the third princess, Huyan Yunyao, Ling Weier and the other sisters all focused their eyes narrowly on Ren Qingrui.
Ren Qingrui noticed that the eyes of a group of good sisters were full of narrow-mindedness, and her face, which was originally a little red, turned bright red in an instant.
Just like the haze on the horizon when the sun sets in the west.
Ren Qingrui's beautiful eyes coyly played with her slender jade fingers, and with a bright red face she nodded to Qi Yun, the Queen, Chen Jie and the other sisters.
"Sisters, please walk slowly."
Qi Yun, Qi Ya, and Qing Lian all gave Liu Dashao and Ren Qingrui ambiguous looks in unison.
Immediately, a group of people turned around and walked straight out of the palace without saying anything.
"Uncle, thank you for your hard work."
"I don't dare, I don't dare, ladies and gentlemen, please come here."
In just seven or eight breaths, a group of people disappeared outside the palace gate.
Ren Qingrui stood at the door of the palace, turned his eyes and glanced at the backs of a group of people who were gradually retreating. He twirled his slender hands with a smile, and walked towards Young Master Liu with a blushing face.
She walked lightly and heard Mr. Liu standing in front of him. She smiled slightly and raised her eyes to look at her sweetheart.
"Da Guoguo, you asked me to stay, what's the matter?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the beautiful lady with shy eyes and smiling face in front of him, and raised his hand with a smile to comb the scattered black hair beside her round earlobes.
Then, looking at the stunning woman in front of him, he asked softly with a gentle voice: "Girl, you have been traveling for a long time, you must be exhausted, right?"
Listening to the soft words of concern from her sweetheart, Ren Qingrui raised her lips and smiled. She nodded subconsciously, and then quickly shook her head.
"Daguoguo, it's okay."
Seeing the beauty's reaction, Liu Mingzhi chuckled and shook his head, then gently pinched the beauty's crimson cheeks with his fingers.
"Silly girl, you just have to be tough.
We hurriedly and slowly drove for a long time, even I feel a little tired as a brother, how can you, a weak woman, be okay?"
Ren Qingrui didn't wait for Young Master Liu to release the fingers that pinched her cheek, she directly raised her white and soft jade hand and gently pressed it on the back of her sweetheart's hand.
Then, she raised her jade neck and stared at her sweetheart intently, with a smile that was as delicate as a flower on her pretty face.
"Da Guoguo, as long as I can stay with you, my sister will be fine anytime."
"Hehehe, you."
"By the way, Da Guoguo, you haven't told my sister yet, why did you ask me to stay?"
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and gently slapped the palm pressed by the beauty on his cheek.
"Girl, please let go of my brother's hand first. Aren't you tired from holding it like this?"
"Oh fine."
Ren Qingrui snorted as if somewhat reluctantly, and slowly removed her jade hand.
Liu Mingzhi flicked his wrist twice, turned his head and looked around in the hall.
He looked at the empty hall, with almost no difference in decoration, and turned his gaze to the stunning person in front of him with a slightly frowning brow.
"Girl, you sisters have been walking around the palace together for so long just now. Do you know where the apse for rest is?
Brother, I looked around and couldn't find where the apse is."
Listening to her sweetheart's question, Ren Qingrui raised her jade arm and pointed towards the corner on the left front.
"Da Guoguo, the place leading to the apse is over there."
Liu Mingzhi took the opportunity to look in the direction of Ren Qingrui's finger, then stretched out his hand to directly hold the beauty's wrist, and walked straight to the left front corner.
"Girl, it's pointless for us to stand here all the time. We're not tired enough.
Let’s take a walk, let’s go to the back hall to have a rest first.”
Ren Qingrui nodded obediently, stretched out his hand to hold Liu Dashao's arm, and gently held him in his arms.
"Yes, yes, yes, Da Guoguo, you can live as you say."
Liu Mingzhi led the beauty all the way to the back hall, and looked around habitually.
When he saw the empty and deserted decoration in the hall, he shook his head with a strange expression.
"These Westerners really don't understand what it means to hide the wind and accept the qi."
Ren Qingrui glanced around at the environment in the palace, then looked at a few narrow windows on the wall, and immediately frowned slightly.
"Daguoguo, it's not just that he doesn't know how to hide the wind and accept the qi.
In such a large apse, there are only a few small windows.
It's broad daylight when the sun is shining brightly, and the palace is actually so dark, as if it's following our warehouse over at Dalong.
If it were in the evening or on a rainy day, it would be so dark in here."
Listening to the beauty's slightly dissatisfied tone, Liu Dashao laughed peacefully.
"Hehehe, girl, this is what is called a place where soil and water support a person.
We have just arrived in the Big Food Country, so let’s live like this for the time being.
When we have free time in the future, I will ask my uncle and the others to build some houses for us in the open space outside the palace according to the custom of our Dalong people."
"Yeah, yeah, Da Guoguo, let's live how you want to live.
You don't have any objections, and neither do I, sister.
If you can live in Da Guoguo, I can live in my sister, too."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, looking up at the tall and empty roof above his head.
"The palace is so empty. In the cold winter, how many charcoal fires and stoves must be prepared to keep the palace warm."
As Liu Mingzhi spoke, he frowned slightly and suddenly shook his head.
"No, no."
Hearing Young Master Liu's words, Ren Qingrui looked up at her sweetheart with a puzzled look.
"Daguoguo, what's wrong?"
Young Master Liu lowered his eyes and glanced at the beauty clinging to him, then turned his head again and looked around.
"Girl, for my brother's sake, I say it's wrong, because for my brother's sake, I haven't changed my habit for a while.
Whenever it comes to winter, when the weather is freezing during the twelfth lunar month of winter, we use charcoal fires or stoves to keep warm. This is our habit in Dalong.
As far as I know, Westerners use something called a fireplace to keep warm in winter."
"fireplace?"
"Yes, the fireplace."
"Daguoguo, what kind of thing is scattered on the fireplace?"
"Hahaha, brother, I don't know how to explain it to you. Once you see the fireplace in the palace with your own eyes, you will understand what it is."
"Okay, sister understands."
As soon as Ren Qingrui finished speaking, she immediately helped Mr. Liu observe around.
Suddenly.
Ren Qingrui's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly raised her jade arm and pointed forward.
"Da Guoguo, look over there quickly. There is a pile of chopped firewood over there."
"Huh? Where?"
"Over there, over there."
Liu Mingzhi turned around and looked in the direction of the beauty's finger.
When he saw the pile of chopped firewood piled at the base of the wall, he immediately glanced around the pile of firewood.
Sure enough, to the right of the firewood pile, a fireplace that existed only in the depths of his memory directly caught Mr. Liu's eyes.
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, then led the beauty directly to the fireplace six or seven steps away.
"Girl, come here."
"Why."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the fireplace in front of him that was a little different from the one in his memory. He raised his eyebrows slightly and released his right hand holding Jiaren Hao's wrist. He chuckled and squatted down in front of the fireplace with his clothes in hand.
Then, he leaned forward and picked up a piece of firewood and waved it around a few times. He recalled some memories deep in his mind and whispered to himself with a sad expression.
"I haven't seen anything like this in more than 20 years."
Ren Qingrui, who had just squatted next to Young Master Liu with his clothes in hand, frowned slightly when he heard Young Master Liu's sighing words, and turned to look at his sweetheart with a puzzled expression.
"Da Guoguo, what are you talking about?
I haven’t seen you in more than 20 years. Have you seen this kind of thing before?”
Upon hearing the beauty's inquiry, Liu Mingzhi suddenly came back from his memories and turned to look at the beauty.
"Ah? Girl, what did you say?"
Seeing her sweetheart's stunned expression, Ren Qingrui pointed at the fireplace in front of the two of them.
"Da Guoguo, sister, I thought I heard you say just now that you haven't seen such a thing in twenty years.
Daguoguo, have you seen this kind of thing before?"
Liu Mingzhi turned his head and looked at the puzzled expression of the beautiful woman, and happily threw the firewood back to its original position.
"Hehehe, brother, I may have seen it in my dream."
After hearing the answer given by her sweetheart, Ren Qingrui rolled her eyes angrily.
"What the hell, if you don't want to say it, don't say it. It's just a dream.
Daguoguo, do you think I am a melon kid who doesn’t know anything?"
Liu Mingzhi laughed loudly a few times when he heard the beauty's somewhat dissatisfied tone.
"Hahaha, okay, okay.
Girl, let’s not talk about this anymore. For my brother’s sake, let me tell you the uses of this kind of fireplace.”
"Hmm, Da Guoguo, tell me."
"Girl, at our Dalong side, whenever the winter comes, we always..."
Liu Mingzhi briefly explained to the beauty how to use this kind of fireplace.
"Girl, you have to understand now, right?"
After listening to her sweetheart's explanation, Ren Qingrui looked at the fireplace in front of her and nodded with a clear expression.
"I see, my sister understands.
Daguoguo, according to what you said, the fireplaces used by these Westerners seem to be similar to the fire-kangs used by our people in Northern Dalong and Beifu during the cold winter season."
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a moment and nodded with a smile.
"Hehehe, girl, you are right, there are indeed similarities in the approach but the same result.
Between the two, they rely on the heat generated by burning firewood to maintain the temperature in the room."
Ren Qingrui lowered his head and looked at the appearance of the fireplace for a few times, then nodded his head a few times with a sigh on his face.
"It seems like these blond and blue-eyed Westerners are quite smart."
Listening to the beauty's sighing words, Liu Mingzhi slowly stood up, squinted his eyes slightly, turned around and walked towards the strange-shaped bed not far away.
"Yes, these Westerners are still very smart."
When Ren Qingrui saw that Mr. Liu had already stood up and left, he quickly got up and trotted to follow him.
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the bare bed in front of him, which had no bedding at all and only the wood left. He turned around and sat down.
Seeing this, Ren Qingrui also sat sideways beside Young Master Liu without hesitation.
Immediately, she stretched out her hands again and took Master Liu's arms into her arms.
"Da Guoguo, we just talked for a long time, and we only focused on talking about other things.
You haven't told my sister yet, what's the matter with you asking me to stay?"
Liu Mingzhi casually threw away the Wanli Jiangshan jade fan in his hand, and gently fanned his beautiful lady with the cool breeze.
"Girl, for my brother's sake, I have something that I have been putting up with for a long time.
Along the way, because we had to set off from time to time, I kept this matter in my heart.
Now, we finally arrived at the royal city of Dashi Kingdom, and we can finally have a good rest for some time.
We don't have to keep rushing anymore, so I can finally relax completely.
Therefore, I hope you can help me, brother."
Listening to her sweetheart's words, Ren Qingrui seemed to have thought of something, and she couldn't help but tremble slightly as she leaned against Young Master Liu's delicate body.
For a moment, the beauty was secretly happy, she raised her eyes shyly to look at her sweetheart, and nodded with a blushing face.
Immediately, she whispered as quietly as a mosquito: "Daguoguo, you don't have to say any more, my sister is willing.
It's just, it's just that you have been holding it in for so long.
My sister, I am still, still... I still have the body of an untouched big girl.
Although my sister, I have already made all the mental preparations, but after all, my sister, I am still a big girl who has never experienced that kind of thing.
So, I was still a little nervous and a little scared.
Daguoguo, when you bully my sister later, you must take pity on me."
The beauty whispered like a mosquito, she quickly turned around and buried her head in the arms of her sweetheart.
"However, Da Guoguo, you don't have to be too cautious.
She politely told her sister that she had already taught her all the things that should be taught to her.
Sister, I will try my best and endure it as much as possible.
As long as my sister can bear it, I will definitely not let you down, Daguoguo."
Liu Mingzhi listened to the beauty's shy words and immediately lowered his head to look at the stunning woman nestled in his arms.
"Girl."
"Um, Daguoguo?"
Ren Qingrui snorted, her face turned hot and she looked up at Young Master Liu.
Liu Da looked at the beauty's pretty face, which was as rosy as a burning cloud, and then thought about the words she just said, his expression suddenly became weird.
