Quick Travel: When the host of Meimeijiao is bound to the birth system

Because the journey was long and they had to consider issues such as supply, they would dock for a day or two every few days to rest before continuing on their journey.

The first stop was at a busy street market pier. After leaving two guards to guard the boat, Madam Hou took Shen Yao and the others ashore.

Because they didn't want to cause any trouble on the road or be targeted by robbers, they dressed very low-key on this trip. Madam Hou and Shen Yao didn't even wear any jewelry. They kept it as simple as possible. Even the color and style of their clothes were kept light and simple to avoid attracting attention.

The marquis' wife had already sent someone to prepare the inn where they would be staying today. All they had to do now was find a place to rest while waiting. Someone would also be responsible for taking the luggage to the inn later.

It was almost lunchtime, so Shen Yao asked Ling Su to go to the front and ask the locals about any restaurants with good reputations nearby. If they were not far away, they would just walk over because there was no time to hire a carriage.

Ling Su took the order and left quickly.

But after a while, he came back with good news, "Madam, Miss, there are several restaurants just a little further ahead. They are not far away."

Madam Hou nodded: "Okay, let's go directly there."

As expected, they saw several restaurants not long after they walked. Shen Yao quietly asked the system to help pick out the best and most conscientious one, and then she and Madam Hou said, "Mom, let's go to that one."

The Marquis' wife naturally agreed, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The group walked in one after another.

But when Shen Yao stepped over the threshold, her steps were unsteady for some reason and she suddenly tilted her body. Qi Yunxiao happened to be on the side closest to her, and he supported her faster than Xi Chun, "Be careful."

After calming the man down, he quickly let go of his hand, even though his heartbeat had not yet subsided.

When Madam Hou heard the noise and turned around to look, Shen Yao had already stood firm, and Xichun had already held Shen Yao's arm, saying, "Miss, walk carefully, I'll support you."

Madam Hou shook her head and laughed, "Are you still not used to it after just getting off the boat? Fortunately, you didn't really fall."

Shen Yao smiled embarrassedly.

After having lunch in the restaurant, their family guards also arrived. Ling Su and Qi Yunxiao went to meet them, and they also hired a carriage to come together.

"Yaoyao, let's go and rest in the inn first." said the Marquis's wife.

"it is good."

After getting on the carriage, Shen Yao lifted a corner of the curtain to admire the customs and people along the way. It must be said that this neighborhood was still very lively, and some of the small items sold looked very interesting. After she had a good rest, she could take Xichun, Yuezhu and the others out for a stroll, oh yes, and Qi Yunxiao.

"Yaoyao, are you tired from traveling with your mother these days?" The marquis's wife asked when she saw that she seemed in good spirits.

Shen Yao smiled and shook her head, saying, "I'm not tired since my mother is with me."

Madam Hou felt relieved and patted her head. "If you feel tired, we can stay here and rest for another day before continuing on our journey."

Shen Yao: "It's okay, mom, just follow your original arrangement."

Madam Hou smiled and said, "Okay, let's set off tomorrow."

Shen Yao had no objection, "Well, I'll listen to my mother."

......

After arriving at the inn, everyone went back to their rooms.

Seeing that the luggage had been delivered, Shen Yao asked Xichun and Yuezhu to find some clean clothes first and then help her take a bath.

However, seeing that they looked tired, she did not let them serve for long. After preparing the hot water, she asked them to go back and rest for a while. She still needed to soak slowly, so they did not need to stay here all the time.

Xichun was a little hesitant. Now that they were away from home, how could she and Yuezhu not stay with the young lady?

She thought for a moment and then said bluntly, "Miss, I'm not tired. I want to stay here and wait for you to finish bathing before going back."

Yuezhu also said, "Miss, I'm not in a hurry to rest. I just want to stay here with Xichun to accompany you."

Shen Yao just smiled and said, "It's okay, I can do it alone, you can go back without worry, and I want to be alone right now, because I have something to think about, ok?"

Xichun and Yuezhu had no choice but to agree.

"Remember to close the door for me when you leave."

……

At this moment, in a room on the next floor, Qi Yunxiao was also taking a bath.

He was now thinking about some of the discussions that he heard among the locals on the road while he was outside today.

[This year's Autumn Festival, the master of the Xu family paid a large sum of money, saying that he wanted to make it more grand than previous years, in order to hope for a better harvest next year, and to let everyone have fun together. ]

[Of course, who doesn't know about this now? Speaking of the master of the Xu family, he is really generous. Have you seen the decorations on Pingxin Street? Which one doesn't cost a lot of money? ]

[Pingxin Street? Then I have to go check it out right away. ]

[Go quickly, now is the time before the event officially starts and there aren't many people there, so you can look around as much as you want. If it gets late in the evening, it will definitely be crowded, and it will be difficult for you to squeeze in and take a closer look.]

[Oh, by the way, why did I hear there will be fireworks viewing and prayer activities tonight? This has never happened in previous years. ]

[You are really well-informed. I just heard about this today. I am going home to tell my mother and sisters about it. They will definitely want to go, especially my sisters. Girls like to watch fireworks, but they don’t see them often. Oh, and there is also praying, which is also very interesting.]

[Okay, then I won't waste your time. You should go back quickly.]

fireworks......

Pray...

Girls like...

Qi Yunxiao's eyes were full of thought, so he might as well tell Shen Yao the news and see what she thought.

......

At this moment, Shen Yao was lying in the bathtub with a lazy and relaxed look on her face, enjoying the comfort of taking a bath.

The system considerately used props to control the water temperature for her, ensuring that the water would not get cold no matter how long she soaked in it. At the same time, it also gave her several soothing massage props to help her relieve the fatigue from today's running around.

At this moment, Shen Yao felt so comfortable that she wanted to close her eyes and fall asleep. However, she thought that she couldn't take a bath for too long, so she gave up the idea and just talked to the system intermittently.

When she finally finished soaking and was about to get up and dress, there was a knock on the door.

"Who? Is it Xichun and Yuezhu?" she asked.

"It's me. I want to talk to you about something." Mo Chuan's voice came through the door and screen.

"Okay, you wait outside for a while, I'll be there soon." Shen Yao said as she got up from the bathtub.

At this moment, Qi Yunxiao, who was standing outside the door, heard the sound of water because of his excellent hearing.

So...she is now...taking a bath?

Qi Yunxiao paused and suddenly felt that he had come at a very wrong time.

Adhering to the principle of not listening to anything inappropriate, he stepped back a few steps and stood farther away from the door to avoid hearing any other sounds that he shouldn't hear.

Inside the room, Shen Yao had just wiped the water off her body and was bending over to pick up the light-colored bellyband beside her and wrap it around her upper body.

When she was tying the belt, she felt her chest tighten. She frowned slightly and muttered subconsciously, "Why did it suddenly become tight? Could it be that Xichun and Yuezhu took the wrong clothes when they were packing? Did they take the old ones?"

Or...getting bigger again?

It shouldn’t be, right?

She is already twenty years old, what else is there for her to change?

Forget it, let’s just change it.

As Shen Yao thought about this, she bent over and searched for other small clothes in her luggage.

Fortunately, the new dress she found was the perfect size, and when she tied the straps, she no longer felt the uncomfortable tightness like the previous one.

Suddenly remembering that Qi Yunxiao was still waiting outside, she quickened the pace of putting on her clothes.

At this moment, outside the door, Qi Yunxiao, who was already several steps away from the door, was caught off guard and his ears turned red.

If you want to blame someone...just blame his own good hearing...

To the extent that even Shen Yao's mumblings were heard.

But...he understood it all.

......

After a while, Shen Yao tidied herself and opened the door of the room.

When she saw Qi Yunxiao standing far away from the door, she asked in confusion: "Why are you standing so far away?"

Qi Yunxiao frowned and said, "Nothing, it's cooler here."

Shen Yao didn't think much about it and just said, "Okay, then come over now. It's hard to talk if you're too far away."

Qi Yunxiao walked over in silence.

"Do you have something to tell me? How about... come into my room and talk?" Shen Yao felt that if a man and a woman stood in the corridor and talked, it would not only lose confidentiality, but also easily attract other people's attention and might even cause some bad discussions.

Qi Yunxiao naturally knew Shen Yao's concerns. He originally wanted to say that it was not necessary and he would just stand here and say a few words and then leave.

but--

After seeing her rosy cheeks that were so tender that water could be squeezed out of them after a bath, as well as the sense of ease and relaxation emanating from her body and the reduced sense of distance, he inexplicably felt that he didn't want other people to see her in this state.

Even if these so-called other people might just be guests passing by the inn, or waiters passing by, he didn't want to.

So, as if possessed by some mysterious force, he took a step forward and said, "Then let's go in and talk."

Then, he closed the door of the room naturally.
