The old man rolled his eyes at him angrily, obviously not wanting to answer his question.
"I know about the court affairs. If you have nothing to do, go home early and don't wander around. Don't let the villagers treat you as an enemy and arrest you for money."
"Change money? Where can I change money?"
Xun Mao obviously didn't care about the old man's attitude and asked after him. The old man ignored him, turned around and went back to the shade of the tree to enjoy the cool air.
Qin Zhao stopped him, "Don't ask. There is an unwritten rule in Qizhou City. Any outsider who does not look like a local or has an unknown identity can be escorted to the military camp. If the military camp verifies that they are foreign invaders, they will be punished." Those who escort or inform will be rewarded with silver."
"This system is good and worth promoting. If all prefectures and prefectures were governed like Qizhou City, there would be no need to worry about spies sneaking in."
While Xun Mao lamented the good governance of Qizhou City, he also received strange looks from Qin Zhao and Qi Qige.
Seeing the two of them staring at him, Xun asked curiously, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Qin Zhao suggested: "If nothing happens, let's go back." This man probably has seen everything he needs to see and heard almost everything he needs to hear.
Xun Mao was happy this time and agreed to Qin Zhao's proposal. The three of them bid farewell to the village and headed for the city. They parted ways until Runxiangyuan.
When Qin Zhao came back, Cao Xi was sorting out the things Li Feng had sent.
Li Feng made a lot of money during this trip to the Western Regions. The old house he lived in was sold to Buffalo and replaced by a new house with two courtyards.
Seeing the piles of raisins, minced meat floss and other ingredients, Qin Zhao asked sourly, "Did Li Feng send something again?"
"Yes, why did you come back so late today?" Cao Xi was busy with his work and had no time to take care of him.
Qin Zhao reached out and pulled Cao Xi, who was squatting on the ground, into his arms and said, "I am accompanying Qi Qige and Xun Mao to Qifeng Mountain."
"Hey, don't hug her so tightly, your hands are dirty." Cao Xi opened his arms and tried not to touch Qin Zhao's clothes.
Qin Zhao buried his head in her neck, inhaled hard, and when Cao Xi wasn't paying attention, he kicked the basket of raisins on the ground, and the inexplicable anger in his heart disappeared a lot.
What's going on? He started clinging to people as soon as he came back. Could it be that he was wronged outside?
Cao Xi was suspicious, "Is there someone bullying you outside?"
"You are the one who bullied me" Qin Zhao's deep voice sounded in his ears.
Cao Xi immediately cheered up and hugged his waist regardless of his dirty hands.
"I can't love you enough, how could I bully you?"
Qin Zhao's face turned red because of Cao Xi's bold and straightforward confession.
He glanced at Raisin awkwardly, then stared at Cao Xi resentfully. The meaning of the expression is self-evident.
When the cause of the disease was found, Cao Xi hurriedly comforted her, "It's just some food. If you are far away from others, it will be treated as if it is nothing. The etiquette exchanges between friends are unavoidable."
Qin Zhao: "I know, but every time he sends something, I feel like he has bad intentions!"
Cao Xi stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of Qin Zhao's lips. "Don't be jealous. No matter what thoughts he has, my heart is with you."
Qin Zhao felt a little sweet in his heart, and his ears slowly turned red. His arms were so tight that Cao Xi couldn't breathe. He stared at Cao Xi, suppressed the raised corners of his mouth, lowered his head and kissed the corner of Cao Xi's mouth quickly.
Aojiao said: "I barely believe you once."
Cao Xi patted Qin Zhao's arm and moved her waist.
Imitate Qin Zhao's coquettish tone.
"What do you think about me? You never said you like me."
Cao Xi acted coquettishly towards Qin Zhao for the first time, which made Qin Zhao's heart flutter. He blushed and lowered his head to kiss Cao Xi. He was so sweet that he had already forgotten who Li Feng was.
After the kiss ended, Qin Zhao was thinking about how Cao Xi had lusted after him before.
Now begins to plot his heart, what should he do, what should he say.
Qin Zhao liked Cao Xi more than anything, but he didn't dare to say it because he was afraid that if he did, Cao Xi would no longer cherish him.
He knew that the relationship between the two was due to his persistent fight. He didn't dare to let go, he didn't dare to be willful, and he didn't dare to gamble. If he lost, he would have nothing.
Qin Zhao didn't say he liked Cao Xi, but he told her thoroughly through his actions how much he liked her.
Talking too much leads to mistakes, Cao Xi knows this well.
Early in the morning, Cao Xi rubbed his sore waist, dragged his weak legs, and said hoarsely: "Young people are full of energy."
............................
Autumn turns to winter, and it's a new year. Many things happened this year, the most important thing is that the buffalo and Xiaorui got married.
The wedding banquet was very simple, just a few people from the Earth Temple were invited.
The banquet was held in the yard newly bought by Buffalo, and the sedan chair was played and played all the way from the small yard to Xiaorui's residence.
Xiaorui was helped out of the boudoir by Cao Xi, and was led to the sedan chair by a buffalo.
The buffalo smiled from ear to ear, but the happiest person was Ogawa.
He and Xiaorui have been dependent on each other since childhood, and are each other's only relatives. Watching her get married, they are happy and sad at the same time.
The wedding went smoothly. When Xiaorui was sent to the bridal chamber, Cao Xi also brought a plate of food to the bridal chamber just like she did when she got married.
"You're hungry, let's see what delicious food I got."
Cao Xi held the tray in one hand and closed the door with the other.
Xiaorui felt relieved when she saw it was Cao Xi. She was so nervous about getting married that her palms were still sweating.
Xiaorui walked to the table and stewed pork ribs with sweet and sour fish and green beans. The white rice had distinct grains, which immediately aroused her appetite.
Seeing that there was only one bowl of rice, she asked curiously, "Aren't you going to eat?"
Cao Xi: "I'm going out to eat. You eat quickly and I'll come over to finish the meal later."
Xiaorui was very hungry, her mouth was full, and she replied vaguely: "Okay, you go and do your work."
A large round table was set up in the small courtyard, and everyone sat together.
Sitting next to Li Feng were two beauties. One was Qiu Ju, whom everyone knew, and the other, a beauty from the Western Regions, whom everyone met for the first time.
The girl could talk to everyone, but she would peek at Cao Xi from time to time and see Cao Xi puzzled.
Li Feng: "Her name is Banno. I brought her back from the Western Regions."
Cao Xi was a little surprised, but Qin Zhao was happy. He was no longer hostile to Li Feng and began to carefully pick up vegetables and remove fish bones for Cao Xi.
The little loving gestures kept coming, making Li Feng's mouth twitch.
"childish"
Cao Xi: "Brother Li, what did you say?"
"It's okay, let's eat"
Li Feng picked up a piece of pork ribs and planned to put it into Cao Xi's bowl, but Qin Zhao intercepted him halfway.
"Brother Li, it's better to take care of the two girls next to you. I'll take care of you."
Cao Xi also felt that Li Feng's move was inappropriate, but due to feelings and the wrong situation, he had to suppress his discomfort.
Qin Zhao successfully cut off the Hu, biting on the ribs, and raised his eyebrows at Cao Xi.
Cao Xi:............................
Li Feng saw Cao Xi's expression change slightly, and knew that he had crossed the line, so he restrained himself. There were some things that he shouldn't expect.
Seeing Li Feng's depressed expression, Qiu Ju secretly glanced at Benno.
When Banno saw Cao Xi and Li Feng, they exchanged words and knew that Li Feng had a one-sided crush on Cao Xi.
Benno withdrew his thoughts. There was no way that Cao Xi was being eaten to death by the man beside her without even realizing it.
When Qiu Ju saw that Benno had nothing to do with her, she secretly cursed her as a fool who would be dumped by Li Feng sooner or later.
The banquet dispersed quickly, and Xiaochuan and Dazhong bravely cleared the table.
After cleaning up, he quickly left, leaving some alone time for the newlyweds.
Qin Zhao held Cao Xi's hand and walked back.
"Li Feng actually married two women. Men become bad when they are really rich."
"Are you envious?" Cao Xi asked him tentatively
Qin Zhao: "I'm not envious, it's enough for me to have you."
Cao Xi stopped and stared at him.
"If one day you fall in love with another woman or have the intention of taking a concubine, you must tell me the truth so that we can get together and have a good time together and don't hurt each other."
It's so easy to get together and get together so easily, Qin Zhao's ears are ringing and his heart is hurting.
Qin Zhao held Cao Xi's hand tightly, "I won't have another woman, and you can't even think of leaving me."
"Don't say such things again, I can't bear it."
