Mu Xingzhi realized that Su Qingluan wanted to take his hand out in an instant, but he didn't know why he gave up.
There are very few people he has met so far that are hard to see through, and Su Qingluan is one of them.
Of course, the reason why he "couldn't see through" here was not that Su Qingluan had any deep intelligence or acting skills that were fake - rather, if Su Qingluan really had intelligence and acting skills, her level would be in accordance with Mu Xingzhi's. Her evaluation system is worse than the four close subordinates outside, and even the poorest spies I have ever seen are better than her.
Let's put it this way, I can't say it's not there, but it can only be "encouraged".
However, Su Qingluan's idea was really weird. This weirdness was caused by her unusual way of thinking. Mu Xingzhi had a vague feeling that if Su Qingluan's true origin could be found out, her weird way of thinking would one day come to light.
However, Mu Xingzhi's intuition was that Su Qingluan did not have any malicious intentions, so although he was curious about the "mystery" that appeared and appeared on the other party, he was not very urgent to know the answer.
But now the warm sunshine shines in through the screen window of the carriage, spreading the hazy sunshine and warmth. Mu Xingzhi gently shook Su Qingluan's arm, as if he was joking, but also as if he was comforting: "Qingluan The idea is good, but I can only control a small part of the army. They follow me from life to death, and I cannot send them on a road of no return."
Mu Xingzhi is like this. If you want to say how deeply he really feels for these subordinates, it is unnecessary. But he is not short-sighted and can consider issues from a very high level. Therefore, knowing that he is at a disadvantage, he will never let people loyal to him die for no reason.
He is not afraid of death, but risking death is obviously unwise.
Su Qingluan was so cute that this "holding hands and shaking" behavior made her heart tremble. If a little girl with a sweet personality does this action, although it is cute enough, it is too "natural", so besides being cute, the impact is much smaller.
But for people like Mu Xingzhi, Su Qingluan's general impression of him was labels such as "unfathomable", "smiling fox", and "powerful". Such people suddenly start to act like "acting cute" ——Although she herself may not know what it means to be cute——it is particularly shocking.
In short, contrasting cuteness doubles the cuteness value!
Su Qingluan's heart was trembling with such cuteness, her mind went blank, and she completely forgot what she was going to say. She didn't know how long it took before she was brought back to her senses by Mu Xingzhi's voice.
"In one day, we will cross the border of Qingzhou." Mu Xingzhi looked at Su Qingluan.
Su Qingluan's heart moved: Qingzhou is where "Xiao Huan" "should" live.
Seeing Su Qingluan's expression tightening, Mu Xingzhi smiled and said, "We will rest in Qingzhou for two days, and I will stay behind closed doors for these two days."
Su Qingluan understood: This meant what he was going to do as "Xiao Huan" in the past two days.
"what do I need to do?"
Mu Xingzhi's eyes narrowed.
No matter when, he always admired Su Qingluan for this - he completed his duties, but never asked a word about things he shouldn't have inquired about.
"Whatever you do when you are at home in the winter, just do it this time. But one thing is, remember to share the meal for two people every time."
But obviously, Mu Xingzhi himself was not in the house, so the subtext was: Su Qingluan had to find a way to get rid of these extra ingredients - no matter what method he used.
Su Qingluan nodded: "Leave it to me!"
Because Mu Xingzhi was "unaccustomed to being sick from the fatigue of traveling and traveling", the entire convoy naturally stopped.
Qingzhou City is far from Huaxi Village. If you can drive the off-road vehicle you used in your previous life, even on such a bumpy dirt road, it would only take you a day and a half.
But now this is a donkey cart - although it was changed to a carriage midway - livestock are not machines. In addition to needing fodder, they also need to rest.
What's more, the mountain roads along the way were rugged and it was impossible to walk very fast. By the time they arrived in Qingzhou City, six days had passed since they set out.
While Su Qingluan lamented that the traffic environment in ancient times was really terrible, he took the food box for today's dinner to the small shop where his group was staying.
It is said to be a "small shop", but after all, this is Qingzhou City, which is completely different from the kind of deserted village shop in the backcountry.
Even the lowest-grade "C" room looks as good as the previous "Tianzihao" room.
However, Su Qingluan directly asked for a first-class room because "my husband is frail and I want him to live more comfortably."
Of course, this is only a superficial reason. The real reason is that Su Qingluan wants to spread the impression that "my husband is in poor health and needs to be temporarily ill" to the hearts of the people around him without leaving a trace.
This was one of the reasons why Mu Xingzhi told Su Qingluan his plan in advance.
Although Su Qingluan is a scumbag in terms of "on-the-spot acting", in any case, he managed to break out of all kinds of weird customers in his previous life, dragged his sick body to open an online store to a certain scale, and even worked with several fellow patients. A small business owner who "eliminates poverty and becomes rich" all the way, so Su Qingluan understands the basic humanities and sophistication.
So Su Qingluan used this day's time difference to carefully conceive of "what should a woman do when her husband is ill in bed and on the road."
It's a bit like designing a character for the protagonist in a virtual game, so it's quite fun.
Mu Xingzhi watched Su Qingluan lying in the carriage with pen and paper to write and draw every time she took a break without interrupting. She only gave advice when she had questions.
However, Su Qingluan was obviously enjoying it. He almost didn't ask Mu Xingzhi anything. He just asked about when he might come back, so he had a little idea.
And now, Su Qingluan pushed open the room full of medicinal fragrance and asked: "Cousin, is your husband asleep? I went to the 'Zhenxiu Pavilion' next door to order something light..." After saying that, he closed the room. Door.
Of course, there was only a spread bedding inside, with a "humanoid" stuffed with pillows inside. Of course, "cousin" Yao Guang was still there, but it was impossible for anyone to drink the medicinal soup on the table beside her.
"Okay, today's 'performance task' is over." After confirming that the door was closed, Su Qingluan said to Yaoguang with a smile: "I ordered a portion for three people, can you eat some too?"
"How did this happen?" Yao Guang was a little flattered.
Su Qingluan smiled and said: "Why can't this be done? You are our cousin, so you are naturally different from the servants outside. Our family can naturally have meals together!"
From an outsider's perspective, Mu Xingzhi, Su Qingluan and Yaoguang are the "masters of the family", and although Song Bo is considered Mu Xingzhi's personal servant, there is a difference between master and slave.
As for the two coachmen, regardless of their true identities, they were now ordinary people hired to do work, so of course they should dine with Song Bo.
This was fine in everyone's eyes, and even the store owner found it unbelievable that Su Qingluan, as the owner, would also open a "first-class" room to his servants.
However, when Su Qingluan said that his room should be between the two servant rooms just in case, everyone felt that it was excused - after all, it was safer to live together when traveling.
