"Mom, look at my second brother, he's bullying me again!"
Song Jiuli angrily pulled Mrs. Song to complain, but this time Mrs. Song did not protect her.
"Your eldest and second brothers are right. You have to change your temper, otherwise you will suffer even more in the future."
"Yes, yes, I will change it later!"
Song Jiuli didn't argue anymore, and the whole family was enjoying themselves happily. In the end, they considerately left some space for Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan.
Only then did Jiang Wan realize that the two of them had been arranged into the same room again! ! !
How embarrassing.
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan stared at each other. Just as the atmosphere became increasingly awkward, Song Jiuyuan touched the tip of his nose uncomfortably.
"You sleep on the bed, and I sleep in the outer room."
After all, the two of them had reconciled, and Song Jiuyuan didn't want to force Jiang Wan.
"good!"
Jiang Wan was waiting for these words, and when she heard this, her eyebrows and eyes were filled with smiles.
"Then I'll go wash up first, and you can go look in the cupboard to see if there's a quilt."
"Um."
Song Jiuyuan nodded silently, but felt uncomfortable for no reason in his heart.
She doesn't seem to have that kind of love between a man and a woman towards him now. Is it true that she has given up on him no longer?
Obviously this was what Song Jiuyuan hoped for most in the past, but now he was filled with various depressive emotions.
Jiang Wan didn't know what Song Jiuyuan was thinking. Zhuangzi's servants brought her washing water, and she finished washing hastily.
I found a place and entered the space, washed myself carefully in the space, and then returned to my room.
Song Jiuyuan seemed to have washed up. When he saw her coming in, he said, "I'll sleep on the couch outside. You can rest assured."
"okay."
Jiang Wan glanced at the curtain in the middle. Although it was a little see-through, it could at least cover it up.
"Your hair is still wet."
Song Jiuyuan walked up to Jiang Wan in a few steps, raised his hand and picked up the handkerchief in her hand to wipe Jiang Wan's hair.
Jiang Wan subconsciously took a step back, realizing that she had overreacted, and quickly explained:
"It's okay, I can do it myself."
"I'll help you."
Song Jiuyuan wiped her hair without changing his expression, his movements were very gentle, for fear of hurting her.
Perhaps because he kept a measured distance from her, Jiang Wan didn't reject him too much.
But she didn't know that when he was wiping her hair, he could see her swan-like neck when he lowered his eyes.
The snow-white skin seemed to be glowing. Song Jiuyuan swallowed his saliva unconsciously, feeling his mouth was a little dry.
"Song Jiuyuan."
Jiang Wan turned around to get her towel, but she ran directly into his arms.
His lips accidentally fell on Jiang Wan's forehead, so softly that it scared Jiang Wan's heart.
"sorry!"
Song Jiuyuan took the initiative to admit his mistake, but at that moment, there seemed to be an electric shock.
Inexplicable emotions flashed across his deep eyes.
"It doesn't matter. You didn't mean it. Give me the towel and I'll do it myself."
Jiang Wan desperately wanted to draw a clear line with Song Jiuyuan, but Song Jiuyuan could only hand her the towel, "Don't move yet."
After speaking, he stretched out his palm and blew it on Jiang Wan's hair with inner force, just like a hair dryer, which really shocked Jiang Wan.
"What are you..."
For the first time, she knew that her inner strength could still be used in this way, and she put aside the thought that had arisen just now.
"I thought your hair was not dry and it would be inconvenient to sleep."
Song Jiuyuan was rarely embarrassed. At that moment just now, he was indeed a little out of control.
"Thanks!"
Jiang Wan raised her eyes slightly, a blush on her pretty face. Fortunately, the candlelight was not too bright tonight, so she couldn't see clearly.
But she didn't know how dazzling she was in Song Jiuyuan's eyes at this moment.
He quickly used his inner strength to blow dry her hair, and Jiang Wan slid open the curtain and entered the inner room.
"I'm going to bed first, and you should go to bed early."
"OK, good night."
Song Jiuyuan watched her lying on the bed through the curtain, and Jiang Wan simply closed the curtain.
Song Jiuyuan then turned around and blew out the candle, smearing the whole person.
It was very quiet in the house, and you could even hear the sound of snowflakes outside.
It wasn't until she heard Song Jiuyuan's slight breathing that Jiang Wan quietly entered the space.
After making some fruit salad to eat, Jiang Wan concocted some medicinal materials in the space, and then left the space to lie down and rest.
Early the next morning, she said goodbye to Lin Tingyu and left. During this period, Lin Tingyu ordered someone to prepare some dry food.
In a reciprocal manner, he accepted the pills from her, and she accepted the food he prepared.
After loading everything onto the carriage, Jiang Wan and the others left Zhuangzi and continued their journey.
There was a lot of snow outside and the road was a little slippery, so the horse didn't go very fast.
Song Jiuchi was sitting outside the carriage, wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat to drive the carriage.
"Brothers and sisters, their footprints as they passed by have been covered in snow!"
Ren Bang and the others set off early, so they certainly didn't walk fast. The footprints were quickly covered with snow.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter even if the route is different, as long as we can get to Jiuzhou."
Song Jiuyuan never thought of following the imperial edict completely. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. It will not be so easy for the dog emperor to cure him in the future.
"Okay, big brother!"
Song Jiuchi knew what was going on and was not in a hurry. Everyone in the carriage was busy with their own affairs.
Suddenly Jiang Wan frowned and said, "There seems to be the sound of fighting ahead."
"I heard it too."
Song Jiuyuan opened the curtain of the carriage. He couldn't see clearly from a distance. He could only say to Song Jiuchi:
"Let's stop for a moment."
"Could it be those people who were exiled?"
Song Jiuli spoke subconsciously and explained hurriedly: "Brother and sister-in-law, I didn't want to interfere, I was just out of pure curiosity."
"Not them."
Jiang Wan closed her eyes and listened quietly for a while before saying, "Brother Ren and the others are armed with broadswords, and those prisoners have no weapons.
And these seemed to be using swords, and some were riding horses. "
"Sister-in-law, can you hear this? That's amazing!"
Song Jiuli's eyes were full of little stars, and Mrs. Song couldn't help but tug at her sleeves.
"Li'er, don't speak yet."
The sound was so loud that Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan made a judgment.
"Someone is riding towards us on horseback."
Song Jiuyuan suddenly spoke. He and Jiang Wan looked at each other, and they spoke almost at the same time.
"Jiuchi, go another way!"
"Jiuchi, turn around!"
Then it was still too late. Their carriage was in front, and someone on horseback came quickly to them from behind.
Only then did Jiang Wan see clearly that it was a row of people in black chasing a girl. The girl looked back at them and said loudly:
"You should leave quickly to avoid being affected."
However, it was already too late. When they were very close, the man in black mistook Jiang Wan and the others for being with this girl.
Several men in black jumped on the carriage and slashed at him with swords.
Song Jiuyuan's eyebrows turned cold, and he knocked people flying one by one with his palm. Song Jiuchi also quickly kicked the people standing on the horse away.
"Leave far away!"
The dagger in Song Jiuyuan's hand flew out and killed a life in one fell swoop!
