Shen Qiuhe coughed a few times unnaturally, "I, Xu, caught a cold." Then he ate some of the steamed buns in front of him.

I thought, if I fill my stomach quickly, this embarrassing sound will not appear.

After hearing this, Qiao Guxin smiled and nodded.

It's probably true that misfortunes never come singly. Shen Qiuhe's stomach stopped growling, but because he was in such a hurry to eat, he started to hiccup again.

Shen Qiuhe looked ahead helplessly. If today was not the rest time he asked for, he would rather go to Dali Temple and stay all day than be laughed at by Qiao Guxin.

Qiao Guxin simply ate something, "I still have something to do, you eat slowly." As he said that, he led the rosary and chanted incense and walked out.

In fact, Qiao Guxin was not full, but she felt that if she sat here any longer, Shen Qiuhe would not be able to eat quietly.

Simply pad your stomach, take rosary beads and recite incense in the yard to help digest food.

After Shen Qiuhe finished eating, he asked someone to come over to look for Qiao Guxin, and then Qiao Guxin went back.

When they arrived at the house, Qiao Guxin looked at a set of women's clothes lying next to her, "I'm going to go a little further today, so I'll put on ordinary clothes." Shen Qiuhe explained beside him.

Then he pointed to the clothes hanging on his arms and said, "I'll change too."

They each went back to the house to change, and Qiao Guxin's hair on the temples was also replaced by one wrapped only in a cloth towel.

After coming out, Shen Qiuhe was wearing the coarse linen clothes worn by the banker's men, but his straight body showed a bit of nobility. "What, are we the only ones changing clothes?"

Qiao Guxin asked confusedly.

Shen Qiuhe stepped forward and naturally grabbed Qiao Guxin's wrist, "Because we are the only ones going out today."

Seeing Qiao Guxin's hesitation, Shen Qiuhe raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why, are you afraid that I can't protect you?"

He asked himself whether he still had the ability to protect Qiao's old intentions.

Then, with a slight force of his hand, he told Wang Si to keep an eye on Dali Temple, and then dragged Qiao Guxin out.

At the back door, Wang Si has prepared a carriage, a very inconspicuous, ordinary blue little carriage.

Shen Qiuhe sat in front, wearing a bamboo hat on his head, and picked up the reins skillfully.

"Sit tight." He shouted to Qiao Guxin inside, then raised his riding whip and walked forward.

Shen Qiuhe is very capable of driving a carriage, and Qiao Guxin is sitting firmly inside.

Qiao Guxin likes to sit in the carriage and watch the noisy market outside.

When passing by a teahouse, I saw the familiar Feng family. I guess they were also out of town today.

In the most inconspicuous place, Feng Hongye squatted there. His face was a little swollen at the moment, thinking that he had really been beaten. There were still a few straws in his hair, and his situation really plummeted.

However, Qiao Guxin did not sympathize with Feng Hongye. Compared with the annoying things she did, the most chilling thing was that she took advantage of others' guilt towards the second lady and only thought about what she could get. I never thought about how pitiful my mother was who died tragically.

With such a nature, being alive is already the greatest kindness God has bestowed upon her.

Get off the official road and start walking along the small road.

Maybe it's because when it rains, the road turns into a small river, and there are a lot of sand and gravel on the ground.

There are mountains on both sides. Although they are not high, they give people an eerie feeling.

Overhead, the occasional call of crows could be heard.

How do you feel that some people may appear at any time and assassinate them?

It's not the time to harvest the crops yet, but the corn on the roadside is as tall as a person, blocking out the light very much. And now, there are not many people doing farm work in the fields. I didn't see a few along the way, which makes it even more disturbing. I feel unsure.

"Can you sing folk songs?" Shen Qiuhe, perhaps sensing Qiao Gu's uneasiness, turned around and asked with a smile.

Qiao Guxin shook her head. Because she had listened to many operas, she could occasionally hum a few lines, but she really couldn't sing folk songs.

"Neither can I." After Shen Qiuhe finished speaking, his eyes lit up, "We can just shout a few words."

Make some noise and maybe you won't be afraid anymore.

After saying that, Shen Qiuhe opened his mouth wide, "Qiao Guxin!" The voice passed through the mountains, and echoes were heard.

Shen Qiuhe said that he wanted to shout something, but he didn't even think about it. Maybe the words Qiao Guxin were already on his lips and they came out naturally. But after calling Qiao Guxin, Shen Qiuhe thought I should add something later.

If you say something too nice, you will feel numb to yourself. But if you say something too unpleasant, it will probably make Qiao Guxin angry.

I don’t know what I was thinking, but I shouted after him, “You are so fat!”

Probably because he went to Gu's house a few days ago and saw that Mrs. Hu's belly was very big. He might have thought about how to praise the child when he was born, but he still listened to Wang Si's advice. When praising the child, he would say that he is chubby and beautiful. .

It is necessary to praise the child for growing fat, but at the same time, the word "fat" must not be mentioned.

Probably because it got into my heart, I immediately shouted it out.

Qiao Guxin, who was sitting in the carriage, immediately darkened his face and said, "Who are you calling fat?"

Shen Qiuhe slowly turned around and laughed dryly, "I was praising you for being so round and good-looking."

"You're just round, you're round everywhere!" Qiao Guxin cursed several times angrily.

Shen Qiuhe could only apologize at the side, but he had experience and would never reply.

It's easy to say that there are many mistakes.

The carriage walked a few more steps and arrived at the place where the land looked a little brighter.

Shen Qiuhe helped Qiao Guxin get out of the carriage, and the reins were neatly tied to a tree with a crooked neck nearby.

Pointing to the mountainside, "Sea buckthorn is delicious only where there are sand and rocks. By the way, there is also Bupleurum on this mountain. The villagers nearby dig some when they have time and wait to sell medicinal materials."

Especially children who do not study are more willing to do this job.

There are wild small Bupleurum trees here. In fact, we can’t dig up much, but the children are fine. It’s good to earn two copper coins and buy a candied haws.

Shen Qiuhe led Qiao Guxin up the mountain. In the sunny place, there were already red sea buckthorns. Shen Qiuhe picked one and tasted it, frowning slightly, "How many, a bit sour."

Looking at the bright color, Qiao Guxin was still thinking, this thing is almost ripe at first glance, how sour can it be, so he picked one without thinking and put it in his mouth. At that time, his sour facial features were all crowded together. Together.

Seeing Qiao Guxin's expression, Shen Qiuhe laughed loudly, "It turns out that the girl is pretending to be ugly, but she is really ugly."

This is indeed true, no matter how good-looking a person is, he can't stand the wrinkles on his face and his facial features are twisted together.

Qiao Gu felt so sad that she originally blamed Shen Qiuhe, but now seeing that he was still laughing at herself, Qiao Gu hit Shen Qiuhe on the arm without thinking, "You can laugh again."

It's just that Shen Qiuhe's arm is stiff. He doesn't know whether it hurts Qiao Guxin, but Qiao Guxin's palm really hurts.

Unexpectedly, Shen Qiuhe's brows were still smiling. Qiao Guxin couldn't stop it, so he directly grabbed Shen Qiuhe's arm and twisted it hard from the inside.

After Qiao Guxin finished twisting, Shen Qiuhe dodged away and covered the area where he had been twisted, "I'm telling you, it's definitely green now."

"What's the use of twisting me if I'm not green?" Could it be that I still scratch it?

Qiao Guxin stood to reply, but a gravel slipped under his feet and he was dodged.

Seeing this, Shen Qiuhe put his arm around Qiao Guxin's waist and supported himself. After the two settled down, Shen Qiuhe coughed lightly and said, "You are really fat."

Originally, the two of them were so close, and Qiao Guxin's face always felt a little unnatural.

Just hearing Shen Qiuhe's words, Qiao Guxin raised her hand and tapped Shen Qiuhe's arm again.

Shen Qiuhe hid on the surface, but out of sight of Qiao Guxin, Shen Qiuhe lowered his head slightly and looked at Qiao Guxin affectionately.

The scent of Qiao Guxin's fragrance lingered in your nose, making your heart pick up inexplicably.

Shen Qiuhe found a suitable opportunity and let go of Qiao Guxin so that Qiao Guxin would not feel embarrassed.

When Qiao Guxin wanted to speak, Shen Qiuhe made a shushing gesture and pointed to the hillside on the opposite side, "Do you think that's a big fat rabbit?"

Following the direction of Shen Qiuhe's finger, Qiao Guxin held her head slightly, and then kept nodding, "Yes, yes."

Shen Qiuhe's eyes looked around, and finally landed on the place to the left of Qiao Guxin, which happened to be a half-sized stone. Shen Qiuhe pointed to the ground, "Give it to me quietly, don't scare it away." .”

Hunting with stones? Qiao Guxin glanced at Shen Qiuhe with some doubts, but still followed Shen Qiuhe's instructions and slowly bent down to pick up the stones, "Can you do that?"

When Shen Qiuhe took the stone, he took a deep look at Qiao Guxin and said, "I heard that you also like to read the bunch of storybooks written by Wang Si?"

If you read the script, you should know what not to say to a man!

Qiao Guxin was puzzled by what Shen Qiuhe meant, but before he could ask any more questions, Shen Qiuhe's hand had already flown out of his palm. Rabbit might have sensed something unusual, and it was already too late to escape.

The stone hit the rabbit right on the waist.

Seeing that the rabbit couldn't run away, Shen Qiuhe clapped his hands and glanced at Qiao Guxin with some pride, meaning just look at it and don't doubt yourself.

Qiao Gu felt heartbroken and didn't know what Shen Qiuhe was so proud of.

However, I just hunted a rabbit.

Probably because extreme joy brings sorrow, Shen Qiuhe was too proud, and when he crossed Qiao Gu's heart, his feet slipped.

This mountain is actually not too steep. Even if it slides down a little, it can be controlled quickly. It’s just that Shen Qiuhe’s hand subconsciously grabbed a place where he could be safe. In the end, he grabbed a handful of sea buckthorn and the pole of sea buckthorn. There are thorns all over it.

Shen Qiuhe screamed and quickly retracted his hand.

However, I saw blood flowing out of my palms.

Qiao Guxin sighed helplessly, "Yeah."

Now it's better, there's no need to eat any more sea buckthorn, let's go home quickly.

Shen Qiuheyuan still wanted to refuse, but Qiao Gu was determined to do so, mainly because he was afraid that there would be thorns left on his palms that would fester.

Before leaving, Shen Qiuhe did not forget to ask Qiao Guxin to take the rabbit away.

Qiao Guxin gave Shen Qiuhe a blank look and went alone.

Shen Qiuhe looked at Qiao Guxin's back. He still looked somewhat heroic, as if the rabbit was hunted by Qiao Guxin.

When Qiao Guxin picked it up, she was still panting from exhaustion.

Shen Qiuhe suddenly said there, "I shot this rabbit."
