"Third brother?"
"Sister Ying, that man just now was..."
Before Geng Hanchu could speak, Nan Xiangyun spoke first.
He also didn't expect that Sister Ying would bring that person with her when she came to Beijing.
Now they can't determine his identity, but they have to be vigilant.
If this person has evil intentions, then they must be fully prepared to avoid hurting Ying Qingci.
"That's the attendant I bought. I see that he has a lot of skills, and he can also look after the house and the courtyard."
Ying Qingci raised her hand to lower the door curtain, and then sat on the left side of the carriage.
"Do you know Brother Nan?"
Nan Xiangyun's attitude towards Ling Xu was unusual. She always felt that Geng Hanchu and Ying Qingci seemed to know Ling Xu?
Thinking of some possibility, Ying Qingci raised her head suddenly.
"Third brother, don't you have any grudge?"
'Puch——'
Nan Xiangyun burst out laughing, "Why would sister Ying think so?"
"I saw that you seemed to pay special attention to Ling Xu, so I made a bold guess."
Ying Qingci glanced at him and spoke without hesitation.
They were all acquaintances, and Ying Qingci knew that they would not harm her.
Moreover, these things still need to be made clear.
After all, he is her attendant now. If a few people really have a grudge, she will be caught in the middle.
"He just looks a bit like an old friend of ours."
Geng Hanchu glanced at Nan Xiangyun, who immediately calmed down, and then turned to look at Ying Qingci.
"However, our old friend has passed away. I guess we admitted our mistake."
After Geng Hanchu finished speaking, a faint light flashed in the eyes of Ling Xu who was following outside the carriage, but it quickly dissipated and did not attract the attention of others.
Ying Qingci smiled and said, "I met Lingxu at Yaxing in the town. It seems that they just look alike."
looks like?
Ying Qingci didn't believe it was such a coincidence.
Rather than saying that they looked alike, it would be better to say that Ling Xu was really their old friend.
However, the third brother said that their old friend had passed away, but Ling Xu was still standing here well. Perhaps, there were other hidden secrets.
But... Ying Qingci suppressed the strange look in her eyes and waited until Ling Xu wanted to say it.
As long as she knew that he had no objections, it would be fine.
To get to the capital, starting from Nanning Prefecture, they still had a long way to go.
Not to mention, in the meantime, you still need to pass through five or six county governments before you can actually enter the official road to the capital.
Therefore, from now on, they may have to travel for half a month.
If riding a horse, it is indeed faster than riding a carriage, but considering Ying Qingci, Geng Han chose the carriage this time.
The Ten Thousand Kingdoms Tribute will be held in a month, and there is enough time to return to the capital now.
Nan Xiangyun had been staring at Ying Qingci since she got on the carriage, which made Ying Qingci feel a little hairy.
"Brother Nan, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Is there something on my face?"
"Cough——" Nan Xiangyun coughed slightly, and then looked over with some embarrassment.
"Um, sister Ying, what was that jar you carried up before you got in the car?"
The jar was not far from him. As the master of Tianxiang Tower, he could count the delicacies he had eaten on one hand.
However, this jar... After being picked up by Ying Qingci, he took a sneak look at it. Moreover, he didn't know if it was Ying Qingci's intention, but there was a gap in the seal of the jar.
The smell wafted out from the seal of the jar.
What should I say?
It was a very strange smell, not unpleasant, a little sour. In addition to the sourness, there was also a faint fragrance, and a smell... that he couldn't place.
He didn't know how to describe it.
When Ying Qingci heard this, a smile flashed in her eyes.
Immediately, she picked up the jar closest to her and said, "This is my special kimchi. It's almost time."
"I thought that we are going to the capital this time and it will take a lot of time on the way. We can't just eat dry food, so I brought these pickles with me so that I can change the taste from time to time."
Sure enough, it’s food!
Nan Xiangyun's eyes lit up, and he heard it right.
"Just in time, when we came out, we just ate some food in a hurry, and now we have been on the road for a while. Grandma put a lot of pancakes for us, and we will eat some kimchi soon."
"If you have a pot with fish, you can make a pot of pickled fish."
"Sauerkraut fish?" Nan Xiangyun's eyes lit up. How to eat this?
He hadn't heard of it.
"Sister Ying, is the pickled fish delicious?"
Ying Qingci held the jar, and when she raised her head, she saw Nan Xiangyun's blank eyes.
She nodded subconsciously.
"Sauerkraut fish can also be called sour soup fish. It tastes sour and spicy, and with the unique taste of dogwood, it tastes both refreshing and delicious..."
Hearing Ying Qingci's words, Nan Xiangyun swallowed his saliva subconsciously.
If he hadn't kept his grace, he would have really rushed to hug Ying Qingci and ask her to make a pot of pickled fish.
"Then, sister Ying, when you get to the capital, you must make that pickled fish for me!"
"good."
Meeting Nan Xiangyun's gaze, Ying Qingci laughed.
"good."
While she was talking, she had already taken out all the pickles.
These kimchi have been washed and then pickled, so they can be eaten directly.
Moreover, the last time she went to space, she discovered dogwood in the mountains, which was a surprise.
For a person who likes spicy food, discovering dogwood is unexpected good news for her.
However, she also considers people who don’t like spicy food.
Therefore, when making kimchi, part of it is made with original flavor, and the other part looks red with a layer of red cornel on top, which is spicy.
"Sister Ying, can you eat this?"
He had never seen Cornus officinalis, but his eyes fell on the red pickles, and a flash of shock flashed in his eyes.
"Everyone likes different tastes. Some people can't tolerate spicy food, so if Brother Nan wants to eat it, take a small bite first and then decide whether you want to eat it or not."
"good!"
After finishing speaking, Nan Xiangyun couldn't wait to take a bite with the chopsticks on the side and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
As a result, he ate too quickly, and all the spicy flavor of the dogwood rushed into his throat.
It made him cough unbearably.
'Cough cough cough——'
Upon seeing this, Ying Qingci quickly put down the jar in his hand and looked at him worriedly.
"Brother Nan, are you okay?"
"Ahem—no, cough, it's okay."
Nan Xiangyun's face turned red when he coughed. Hearing Ying Qingci's words, he quickly waved his hand.
"This taste is really unique."
