Rebirth of marriage

Chapter 38 Thank you for the great harvest of wine

When they arrived at the col, Lu Zhuo and the others had not arrived yet. Mo Li was waiting by the tent with a food box. Gu Xiao took the food box and thanked them for the wine, "Mo Qi will bring them over. You have something to eat first."

After a long night of hard work last night, the barbecue she had eaten for dinner had long been used up. She found a stone to sit on, and frowned at the discomfort in her buttocks.

Seeing this, Gu Xiao walked over, picked him up and sat on his lap.

Yesterday, I obviously didn't use any force, but I still bent my palms and hit her with a hollow slap. I just wanted to scare her, and I didn't expect her to be so delicate.

When I was dressing her, I saw that the area was slightly swollen and turned purple.

He felt a little regretful, he should have been gentler if he had known.

She would get nothing from a fight with him, so he should treat her better, Gu Xiao thought secretly in his heart.

Being hugged by Gu Xiao earlier, Xie Jiu didn't feel any discomfort in the area where he had hit her. To be precise, after a night of infatuation, everything on her body was sore, so she ignored her buttocks.

Until I sat on a hard stone...

Sure enough, she was too fragile to take care of herself when Gu Xiao was around.

The muscles in the man's legs were hard and no more comfortable than a stone, but Xie Jiu sat comfortably. She leaned on him, picked up a small steamed bun and ate it slowly.

In the end, she simply didn't bother to do anything and just waited for Gu Xiao to feed him. This happened frequently in her previous life and she was no stranger to it.

From being uncomfortable at the beginning, Gu Xiao actually had some fun later on.

After eating and drinking enough, Xie Jiu leaned against him lazily. After a long while, he got up and said, "I will stay in the mountains for a few more days. What will the prince do today?"

Gu Xiao also had his own things to be busy with, but he glanced at Xie Jiu and said, "Do you want me to carry you?"

He remembered how hard it was for her to climb the wall for the first time. Walking in the mountains was not easy. She was too delicate.

"I'm fine. Prince, please go and do your work." Xie Jiu refused. Although she didn't intend to hide their relationship, she was embarrassed to let him carry the whole process in front of others.

Thinking of something, she added, "My lord, I'm done with my work. If I'm not far away, come find me again."

When Mo Qi arrived with Lu Zhuo and others, Gu Xiao had already left with Mo Li because of something else.

I don’t know how Mo Qi explained it to them, but no one asked her why she came to the col in advance.

Mo Qi did not leave, but followed Xie Jiu. During the lunch break, he left for a moment, and when he came back, he handed Xie Jiu a bottle of pills and a household registration.

It is household registration and child avoidance pills.

Xie Jiu rubbed the bottle, took out one and put it into his mouth, chewing it carefully. It was sweet.

The medicine was delivered in half a day. It was not difficult to guess that there was a secret passage in the mountain leading directly to Prince Xiao's Mansion. Gu Xiao asked Mo Qi to deliver the medicine without thinking of guarding against her.

He seemed to have never suspected that she was a spy planted by others, which was inconsistent with his cautious nature.

Xie Jiu wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when there were only two of them to ask Mo Qi about Gu Xiao.

However, before he could speak, Feng Zhilan came over with a barbecue, and Mo Qi nodded and left.

Feng Zhilan handed the roasted meat to Xie Jiu and asked in a low voice, "Do you like him?"

Without waiting for Xie Jiu to answer, she added, "I know you followed him voluntarily."

Feng Zhilan's kung fu is not weak. She can detect many things even if she is blindfolded. Xie Jiu is not surprised that she will know. She asked, "What if I don't do it voluntarily? What will you do?"

Feng Zhilan took a bite of the meat and said, "There must be a dozen of them. You are my boss and you paid the wages."

With a smile in his eyes, Xie Jiu formally answered her question, "Well, I like him."

"Then I understand." Feng Zhilan seemed to come here just to confirm, and next time she reviewed whether she should stop him when he was taking away the wine to thank him. After getting a positive answer, he didn't say much.

With this interruption from her, Xie Jiu failed to ask what he wanted to ask Mo Qi.

After a brief rest, the group set out again, but still found nothing in the afternoon. Instead, they found a large cave.

After walking for a day and being some distance away from the garrison, Xie Jiu asked Mo Qi to tell Gu Xiao that they would rest in the cave tonight and asked him to go back to the garrison directly without having to come to look for her, which would save him traveling back and forth.

But when it was dark, Gu Xiao still came.

He walked straight to Xie Jiu and sat down, handing her a bottle of medicine, "Apply it to the blisters, and walking tomorrow will not be so uncomfortable."

The doctor ordered this to be made in the afternoon, and he brought it as soon as it arrived.

His concern made Xie Jiu smile in his eyes. He put the medicine away and prepared to apply it when everyone went to bed.

Gu Xiao looked around the cave, stood up and walked towards the corner with Xie Jiu in his arms, "Wipe it on earlier, it will heal faster."

Xie Jiu's heart trembled slightly and he whispered, "Everyone is watching."

Gu Xiao said calmly, "No problem."

If Xie Jiu is willing to let those people know about their relationship, he doesn't need to worry. They are Xie Jiu's people and will not go out to ruin Xie Jiu's reputation. If he does, he will solve it.

She stopped being pretentious when thanking her for the wine, and let him help her take off her shoes and socks, "Have you eaten tonight? We have dry food and barbecue."

"Mo Qi, they will prepare." Gu Xiao looked at the blisters on her feet and frowned.

Her feet are very beautiful, small, shiny and cute, but a bit too delicate.

Xie Jiu lowered his eyes and whispered, "It'll be fine in a few days."

In her last life, she fled to the south of the Yangtze River and walked an unknown distance. She developed many blisters on the soles of her feet, which eventually turned into scars.

After applying the medicine and putting on his shoes and socks, Gu Xiao carried the person back to the fire.

Lu Zhuo came over and bowed, "The common people have met His Highness."

Seeing his dignified demeanor yesterday, I vaguely guessed that it was almost certain that he would be taken to the border station. King Xiao was strict in running the army. Without his order, ordinary soldiers would not dare to take outsiders to the station.

Now it has been completely confirmed that the entire Yu Youguan does not have the temperament of the person in front of him, which is more suitable for Xiao Wang's identity.

However, he didn't expect that Xie Jiu was actually a member of King Xiao, who was engaged to him, and Xie Jiu was a widowed outlaw, so they were destined to be unable to live together openly.

It's such a pity that such an outstanding woman can only be the woman behind King Xiao's back.

Gu Xiao nodded slightly, "No courtesy."

Nothing more to say.

When Mo Li brought the food, Lu Zhuo stepped back and glanced at Xie Jiu before turning around.

Xie Jiu sensitively caught the pity in his eyes.

After thinking about it for a while, Xie Jiu also understood where this compassion came from. In the eyes of the world, she and Gu Xiao would never be the same.

"Open your mouth." Gu Xiao's words brought her back to her thoughts. He tore off a small piece of meat and handed it to her mouth.

Xie Jiu took advantage of the opportunity to bite down. Gu Xiao's progress was already in front of her eyes, so she no longer thought about those things that affected her mood.

Because Gu Xiao was there, everyone was quiet and a little reserved. They each found a place to close their eyes and fall asleep. Xie Jiu also fell asleep with Gu Xiaotuan in his arms.

After another two days of this, they finally walked through the mountains connected to Yuyouguan and found another small coal mountain.

Lu Zhuo and others were a little disappointed, but Xie Jiu was full of gains. In addition to the iron ore she found a few days ago, she also found a vein that was suspected of being a jade mine.

There is precious jade on the mountain, and the branches on the side of the tree are drooping, which is called "treasure seedling". The jade is on the mountain and the grass and trees are moist. These are the books that the master passed down orally and asked her to recite.

It was winter right now, and the mountain was actually lush and green, completely different from the depression and desolation of other mountains.

Thanks for the wine, it’s been a great harvest.

Even if she couldn't find any veins of minerals elsewhere in the future, she would still be able to do a lot of things with them. She wrote down these mountains one by one.

Lu Zhuo was told to buy these hills and surrounding hills when he returned. Gu Xiao brought Mo Li Mo Qi over and happened to listen attentively.

Mo Li hesitated to speak, but Gu Xiao glanced away and quickly lowered his head.

Xie Jiu didn't know how many people were complaining, so he gave Lu Zhuo the new household registration, "These mountains are recorded in this household registration."

"Jiuxiao?" Lu Zhuo muttered softly. Xie Jiu from Meishan Mountain was recorded in the Lu family's name due to inconvenience due to his identity. Jiuxiao reminded him of King Xiao. Will Xie Jiu cooperate with King Xiao later?

Wouldn't the Lu family also be involved with King Xiao? Lu Zhuo thought a little too much for a while.

Lu Zhuo's thoughts were clear to Xie Jiu, so the Lu family would not have to think too much. She explained a little more, "I want to establish Jiuxiao Pavilion. From now on, these properties will be recorded in Jiuxiao's name."

"What do you want to do?" Gu Xiao suddenly asked on the way back.
