Chapter 175 You have to cherish the person in front of you
The Duyuan Bridge team quietly walked out of the main city along the Yanjiang Corridor. Fifty miles southwest of the main city was a small town in Hechiliu close to the border. This was the closest place.
Jiang Yingnian looked at the map in front of him and said strangely: "That town is nothing special. It's just a small place with three to five hundred people. Why are you so far away from the bridge?"
Guan Jiyu thought for a while and said: "I don't think he necessarily wanted to go to some famous place. He brought quite a few people with him. It would be too ostentatious if he went to a big place. Maybe he deliberately wanted to find an inconspicuous place.
It's best to go to a place where no one would expect to meet someone important, right?"
"No, I have to follow him and see what he wants to do?!" Jiang Yingnian simply packed up his equipment and prepared to follow Du Yuanqiao's team.
Guan Jiyu hesitated for a moment, then said: "I'll go with you!"
If it weren't for her ups and downs, she would have volunteered to follow her without even thinking about it. But now Guan Jiyu can't figure out the condition of her body. Her body seems to be out of control.
It was when she was unprepared that she suddenly became "willful".
Guan Jiyu was afraid of dragging Jiang Yingnian down, but also couldn't bear to let him go alone, not to mention that this time it was a matter of revenge. After careful consideration, she decided to go with him.
"That's fine." Jiang Yingnian tightened the fox fur for her and said, "There should be no place colder than this in the north. The territory of Hechiliu is much warmer than here. You haven't been too cold yet.
Hao Lisuo, if you come with me, you will have someone taking care of you, so I feel more at ease."
Jiang Yingnian ordered people to find two sets of clothes worn by Hechiliu people on daily basis. Guan Jiyu was puzzled at first and asked: "What are you doing with these clothes?"
"Of course it's what you and I will wear for this trip." Jiang Yingnian said while shaking his clothes: "Since you have to do your best for a show, do you still want to go there wearing armor? If you are a little unusual in a small place like that, they
They will treat you like a monkey."
Speaking of the people of Hechiliu, Guan Jiyu suddenly remembered a person and asked: "Where is Xiao Qingyuan? Hasn't she always lived in the main city of Yanjiang Corridor? Why didn't I see her when I came here this time?
?』
"Xiao Qingyuan? You mean that little girl from Hechiliu?" Jiang Yingnian said in a normal way: "Now that the relationship between us, Xuli and Hechiliu is so tense, do you think the general will allow the refugees from Hechiliu to continue to stay?"
Is it within the main city?”
"Those refugees have all been sent away a long time ago." Jiang Yingnian seemed to be talking about a very common thing. As he spoke, he put on the clothes neatly and said: "Not too big, not too small, just right."
When Guan Jiyu learned that all the refugees in the Yanjiang Corridor had been sent away, she felt lonely. She said with some regret: "Xiao Qingyuan's parents are gone, where else can she go... I don't know if Brother Helan knows this."
This matter?"
"Okay, let's not worry about it for now." Jiang Yingnian threw another set of women's clothing to Guan Jiyu and said, "This one is yours, quickly change into it."
Jiang Yingnian walked out of the room consciously and said, "Change quickly, I won't peek."
Guan Jiyu said contemptuously: "What are you talking about? Do you still want to take a peek?"
"It's not like I haven't seen it before." He said these words lightly and hurriedly slipped out, leaving Guan Jiyu gnashing his teeth.
After the two of them finished getting ready, they rode horses and headed towards their destination. After driving non-stop for a while, it was almost dawn.
Guan Jiyu said: "It's already dawn, where should we go next?"
Jiang Yingnian observed the sunrise and found that this place was still ten miles away from the destination. It was also an ordinary village in Hechiliu. There were only about a dozen households in the village. The folk customs were simple and simple. The ladies who got up early to feed the chickens at the door greeted each other.
Let the two of them go in and finish drinking water.
Jiang Yingnian did not refuse. He got off the horse and took Guan Jiyu to drink two large bowls of hot tea. He said politely to the aunt: "Thank you very much, but we still need your help with something."
He pointed at his and Guan Jiyu's messy hair. They had removed their original hair accessories in advance and deliberately messed it up. Jiang Yingnian said, "Could you comb our hair?"
Guan Jiyu was still confused after hearing this, so he combed his hair
As long as you have a comb for your hair, who doesn’t know how to comb it? Jiang Yingnian could just borrow a comb, so why would he let others help him comb it?
But then the aunt nodded, and quickly brought a small bench, a wooden comb, a handful of various colored strings, and a wooden box.
Jiang Yingnian took the lead and sat on the small bench in front of the aunt. The aunt picked up the wooden comb and combed his hair smoothly, then used the comb to pick up a bunch of hair, and then picked up a blue string and began to braid it.
Braids.
The aunt was very skillful and she was very fast in braiding her hair. After a while, Jiang Yingnian’s hair was braided into countless little braids. The braids were mixed with blue and dark brown hair ropes. At this time, the aunt opened the wooden braid.
Box, Guan Jiyu then saw that there were various silver ornaments in the wooden box.
The aunt picked out a piece of silver jewelry, picked up half of Jiang Yingnian's braid, tied it up, and put a pendant on the back of her head. An ordinary Hechiliu man's hairstyle was completed.
"It's your turn." Jiang Yingnian stood up from the small bench, touched the braid on his head with his hand, and explained: "The combing of hair they are talking about here means combing this braid, so that it will look more like a true Hechi.
Ryūjin.”
Guan Jiyu understood clearly and sat down on the small bench. Jiang Yingnian stood in front of her. He was dressed in dark blue clothes and had such an exotic hairstyle. He looked very handsome and exotic.
The aunt began to comb Guan Jiyu's hair, and while combing it, she said: "Little girl, you have to learn how to comb your hair. There is no woman in the world who can't comb her hair. Every woman here has to comb her husband's hair for her whole life."
of."
"Ah?" Guan Jiyu responded blankly, not knowing what to say.
On the contrary, after Jiang Yingnian heard this, he reminded Guan Jiyu with a malicious look on his face and said, "Did you hear that? Why don't you learn it quickly? Every woman has to comb her husband's hair for the rest of her life."
Guan Jiyu rolled his eyes at him and said, "It's none of my business. I don't have a husband."
"Sooner or later, you will have it." Jiang Yingnian's face became serious. He walked to Guan Jiyu's side, squatted down and rummaged through the wooden box on the ground. He carefully picked out a few silver jewelry and put them in the palm of his hand.
, when the aunt was almost finished braiding her hair, he handed over the silver jewelry in his hand and said, "Please put these on her."
The aunt smiled knowingly, put jingling silver ornaments on the ends of Guan Jiyu's braids, and said: "This young man is not bad. He knows how to be considerate at a young age. If you marry him, you will have a blessed life."
Hello."
Jiang Yingnian gave an artificially sweet smile and said: "Mom, you still have vision. My mother has told me since I was a child that women are not better than men. If men are steel, then women are soft water, so treat girls like this.
You must be gentle and patient.”
The aunt smiled from ear to ear and said, "Which woman wouldn't be happy to hear this?" After tying the last braid on Guan Jiyu, she gently patted Guan Jiyu's shoulder and said, "Girl,
You have to cherish the people in front of you."
Guan Jiyu stood up. She was already wearing a set of maroon clothes. Now she had a new hairstyle. The large and small braids on her head were all braided with dark red and smoky purple strings mixed with hair.
The braids hanging down on both sides of the shoulders are also decorated with beautifully carved silver ornaments.
She always wears her hair in the simplest style, often simply tying her hair up high with a hair tie. This is the first time she has experienced such a complicated style.
Guan Jiyu touched the braid behind his ear and said, "Does it look good?"
Jiang Yingnian looked at it intently and said, "It's beautiful, very beautiful!"
While packing up the wooden boxes on the ground, the aunt said: "If you go further, you may be able to catch up with today's market. There are many people buying things there and it's very lively. The things I have here can only be used as they are. You guys
It's better to go to the market and pick out some things for you young boys and girls."
Jiang Yingnian and Guan Jiyu looked at each other and said, "Let's go."
After thanking the aunt again, the two got on their horses and continued on their way. Since they were not far from their destination, Jiang Yingnian suggested not to chase too closely, otherwise Duyuanqiao would definitely become suspicious if they were discovered.
Slowed down and walked leisurely towards
Walking forward.
What the aunt said was right. We didn't walk very far ahead, and we came across the market here. Although the place is not big, it is no less lively than any other place in Xuli.
Because there were too many people on the street, Guan Jiyu and Jiang Yingnian could only lead their horses and slowly follow the crowd. There were various large and small stalls on both sides of the street, and the stalls had a dazzling array of things.
Jiang Yingnian looked at it and said: "Have you noticed that people in this area usually like to use silver jewelry. Although it is not as interesting as the gold jewelry that is abundant in Quesi in the south, Hechiliu typed it out
The silver jewelry is quite exquisite in style." New
Guan Jiyu nodded and said: "That's true. Don't look at the small place here, but it's much more interesting to visit than our big capital. I've been to the market in the capital several times before, and I just went back and forth for those things. It's really
It’s very boring.”
"Now that you're here, let's take a stroll!"
As he spoke, Jiang Yingnian took a big step forward and walked side by side with Guan Jiyu. His hand naturally held her hand. This time, he did not hold Guan Jiyu's wrist, but held it tightly.
The palm of her hand.
Fingers intertwined.
Guan Jiyu took a breath and thought that Hechiliu was indeed much warmer than the north.
At this moment, there was a burning sensation on her back, so hot that she could hardly breathe.
