The exiled army kept moving forward, and finally entered Blue Stone City just before dinner.
The prosperity visible to the eye shows that it was not greatly affected by the flood.
The small vendors on both sides kept shouting, and people were coming and going, bustling.
Xu Qiyue's jaw almost dropped when she looked at the scene in the city.
Looking at it one by one, I found that the men here were actually dressed up.
The rouge and gouache are applied thicker than that of women, and some men are even dressed more delicately than women.
That enchanting walking posture made Xu Qiyue suspect that she had returned to modern times and was traveling to a certain country in Thailand.
On the streets, you can see Elephant Houses everywhere, with good-looking and elegantly dressed cowherds standing at the door to attract customers.
"Husband, are you sure this is within the Daning Kingdom?" She blinked, fascinated.
Xiao Beihan's face turned dark when he saw her like that.
"Ignore it and close your eyes."
Oh, that domineering low tone.
Xu Qiyue looked at him with a sweet smile, "Don't you think it's like looking at the scenery? It's very pleasing to the eye."
"Shut up!" Xiao Beihan's face turned even darker.
Xu Qiyue's expression suddenly changed, she was extremely aggrieved, and pouted, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Husband, are you being cruel to me?"
"No, I'm not, I, I didn't hurt you..."
Xiao Beihan was a little at a loss. He didn't mean that. Why was he misunderstood? What should he do to comfort him now?
"Hahaha..." Xu Qiyue looked at his tangled and rapidly changing expression and laughed heartily.
General Xiao, your skills are not up to par...
That cunning look really made Xiao Beihan feel helpless and funny.
Shen Ning and others also curiously opened the car curtains and looked outside.
Also being dressed up by the men and women in front of me refreshed my outlook on life.
How come the men here are so well-dressed, but the women are very simple, and it's the other way around?
Xiao Xinyan was the most interested. She held Shen Ning's arm, glanced around with curious eyes, and said:
"Mother, look, how come they are dressed like this? The makeup on their faces is even more exquisite than that of us women."
"And that man, the clothes he's wearing look great."
Shen Ning glanced at her daughter. Although she thought so, she should not say it out loud.
As soon as Xiao Xinyan finished speaking, the eldest sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law, the third sister-in-law and Xiao Haoling all nodded together and laughed.
They felt the same way.
It's not just the Xiao family who are so curious.
The Tan family, Feng family, Meng family and Fang family who had been following the officials outside were also curious and commented.
Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked left and right.
The people in the city seemed to have become accustomed to the eyes of those in the exiled army.
Do whatever you have to do, very calmly.
He was not affected at all, and even enjoyed being looked at so much, with a look of satisfaction and pride on his face.
Xu Qiyue was even more surprised.
But when she thought that the city lord Mei Niang could intercept her husband on the street, she seemed to have guessed some truth.
Zhou Chenghai brought everyone into a very ordinary inn.
After saying hello to the people inside, just like last time, if you want to live in a house, you pay money, and those who don't have money go to the stables.
The Feng family, like the Fang family, walked to the stables cursing because they were penniless.
The Tan family and the Meng family each requested a ten-person room.
The Xiao family also requested a six-person room and a two-person room just like last time.
After paying the money, they returned to their rooms.
Lunch can also be taken care of on your own.
If there is no way to solve it by yourself, then just eat the same black flour pancake, which is enough to keep you from starving to death.
At this time, in the city lord's mansion.
Mei Niang turned the prayer beads in her hand and smiled happily as she listened to the news reported by her servants.
He stretched out his other hand, opened it, looked back and forth at his onion-like fingers, and murmured with determination:
"Small, just say that you can't escape the Wuzhishan of this city lord. Look, isn't this coming to your doorstep?"
"Where are they now?"
"It's right at our inn in Blue Stone City." the servant replied.
It turned out that as soon as Mei Niang returned to the city, she ordered her servants to wait at the city gate and come back to tell her as soon as they saw the exile team entering the city.
She tapped her fingers on the table, and after a while, she gave instructions on her next plan.
The servants were ordered to go down and prepare.
Xu Qiyue did not use the small kitchen in the inn this time. She did not want to cause trouble again like last time.
He walked out directly to the restaurant next door, ordered some food, and delivered it to the inn.
After the family finished eating, they spent a little money and asked the people at the inn to bring hot water.
After the Xiao family took a bath, they put their changes of clothes into a basket as before.
It's like they have already done these things tacitly.
Xu Qiyue was still the same, carrying a backpack with a change of clothes on her back, and entered the room between two people.
There was no embarrassing situation this time, and Xiao Beihan walked outside consciously.
Even the screen was finished.
That means just let her take a bath behind the screen with peace of mind.
Xu Qiyue didn't show any pretense. She walked behind the screen, slipped into the space, and took a comfortable bath.
I also washed my hair, and it was still wet when I came out.
Walked out of the screen.
When Xiao Beihan saw this, he frowned and naturally took the towel Xu Qiyue was wiping her hair with.
Xu Qiyue was stunned for a moment.
"Um?"
"I'll help you." Xiao Beihan took the words lightly.
Xu Qiyue smiled slightly and let Xiao Beihan play with her hair.
This scene really looks a bit like the way an old couple gets along.
She seemed to quite like the feeling at this time.
After drying their hair, the two sat at the table, and Xu Qiyue took out the tools from the space.
Today I need to help Xiao Beihan remove the plaster from his hands.
It was hard enough for him to take such good care of himself while living with only one hand.
She gently removed the plaster and said, "Husband, try it and see if there is anything uncomfortable with it."
Xiao Beihan tried to move his left hand a few times. He was a little uncomfortable at first, but after a while, he found that the flexibility of his left hand was the same as that of his right hand.
In other words, his left hand has now returned to its original appearance.
Xiao Beihan was so excited that he walked forward and hugged Xu Qiyue tightly, this time with both hands.
"Yue'er, thank you."
Apart from saying thank you, he couldn't find any words to express his feelings at this time.
