After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

In the end, everyone had an unforgettable night.

There are bonfires and delicious food.

And the person hidden in my heart is by my side.

Until they fell asleep, everyone had a satisfied smile on their faces.

The bonfire outside had never been extinguished, and Si Jiu could feel the bright light throughout the night.

This is also the reason why Wen Baizhi deliberately wanted to light a bonfire.

She didn't think about helping Si Jiu overcome his fear of the dark or other problems. She just wanted Si Jiu to live a normal and healthy life.

So, everyone spent the rest of their time on the road.

Si Jiu vomited several times, and was comforted by Wen Baizhi every time.

The most important thing is that Rong Heng also arrived three days after they set out.

After Rong Heng came, Wen Baizhi could feel more at ease.

In this way, they hurried and finally arrived in Jinzhou before winter came, taking more than 20 days.

Because he was traveling light and had a mission to complete, Si Jiu had no intention of alarming any Jinzhou officials.

They pretended to be passing merchants, and after entering the city, they rented a large house and settled everyone and the things they brought with them.

Si Jiu naturally slept in the main house. He was still too shy to ask Wen Baizhi to stay in his room.

He would just look at Wen Baizhi with his wet, puppy-like eyes, making her understand what he wanted at once.

Wen Baizhi pretended not to know what he was thinking, and even deliberately avoided his sight and didn't look into his eyes.

Si Jiu tried several times to grab her clothes directly, but she dodged him skillfully.

After a few times, Wen Baizhi felt that she couldn't tease him like this anymore.

After all, she only has Si Jiu. If he gets hurt again, who will compensate her?

She cleared her throat and said, "Cuizhi, please put my clothes and other things in the main house."

As soon as he finished speaking, it was like a star in the darkness, suddenly lighting up Si Jiu's eyes.

Wen Baizhi saw him standing there stupidly, so she came over and grabbed his arm: "Why, Du Gong, are you used to sleeping alone? Don't you want me to go to your room and disturb you?"

Si Jiu instinctively retorted: "How could that be? You come, I, I..."

I am the happiest.

Wen Baizhi saw that he couldn't utter a word, with the words stuck in his mouth, unable to move out or down.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. There are still some things to clean up here. You must be tired from the car ride. Go to your room and have a rest. I'll call you to eat after dinner is ready."

After arriving, Si Jiu saw that Wen Baizhi brought a lot of things.

Among them were the sweet potatoes he had seen and eaten on the road.

There's a lot more in store for him.

He also knew that not only would he not be able to help, but he would also distract her.

So he went straight back to the main house.

He also needed to clean the room properly in anticipation of her return in the evening.

In this way, the two of them were busy with their own things and did not meet until dinner time.

There were not many people traveling this time, so Si Jiu did not bring a cook with him.

The most important reason is that he doesn't have much appetite.

When he was traveling, he thought Wen Baizhi would not come, so naturally he would not think about such details.

But now that Wen Baizhi came with him, he began to worry about the meals in the future.

Wen Baizhi naturally thought of this.

In terms of cooking, Cuizhi is enough to complete most of the work by herself, and with the help of Ping'an and some other clever eunuchs, there are only a dozen people in Jinzhou, who are fully capable of preparing good meals for everyone.

At dinner time, Wen Baizhi went to the room and called Si Jiu to go to the dining room for dinner.

"Before, you always ate alone in your room. I thought, maybe you could find a special dining place to eat with everyone and feel the atmosphere during the meal. Maybe it would be better for your eating."

Wen Baizhi explained why she asked him to come out for dinner.

Actually, it doesn’t matter where Si Jiu eats.

He had eaten in his room before, but that was only because he never ate on time, and the food that was delivered to him had to be reheated several times before he could finally eat it.

Now that he has Wen Baizhi, naturally he will eat wherever she is.

When the two arrived at the dining room, they saw two tables in the middle.

At the small square table, Rong Heng was already sitting there waiting for them.

Ping'an, Cuizhi and some other people who were accompanying them sat around another larger round table.

When they saw Si Jiu arriving, Ping An and the others stood up immediately.

"The Governor."

Si Jiu said: "From now on, no matter where you are, just call me boss when you see me. Don't reveal your identity easily."

"Yes." Everyone agreed.

"Okay, we've been traveling for such a long time, and everyone is very tired. Let's go back after dinner."

After Wen Baizhi saw him showing off his authority, she pulled him to sit at the table.

Rong Heng had long been accustomed to any intimate actions between the two, and he took the bowl and chopsticks to prepare for dinner.

Wen Baizhi also served Si Jiu half a bowl of rice.

"Try to eat it. I asked Cuizhi to cook this rice very soft and tender. If it doesn't taste good to you, don't eat it."

Si Jiu took the chopsticks: "How can it be so delicate."

Wen Baizhi sorted and arranged the dishes in front of her.

All the meat that Si Jiu couldn't eat was placed in front of Rong Heng, and the few vegetables that he could eat were placed in front of him.

Rong Heng pretended to protest: "I still want to eat those dishes, why did you put them in front of Si Jiu?"

Wen Baizhi defended her and said, "If you want to eat it, just stand up and pick it up. I just put it in front of Si Jiu. I didn't take the food away directly, right?"

Rong Heng picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into his mouth to show off: "Humph, just give it to him. I'll just eat my braised pork. Oh, Miss Cuizhi's braised pork is so delicious. It's so soft and sticky. It's delicious."

Cuizhi at the other table blushed when she heard Rong Heng's exaggerated praise.

Seeing this, Wen Baizhi pursed her lips in anger and exhaled through her nose.

When Si Jiu saw the two people's childish quarrel and then looked at the dishes in front of him, he had the first thought that a peaceful life is what people should pursue most.

The meal was very delicious.

After the meal, Ping An and a few others were responsible for cleaning up and washing the dishes.

Cuizhi wanted to help wash, but Ping'an refused.

"Miss Cuizhi is already very tired from cooking, so let us do these tasks. Also, if Miss Cuizhi needs to buy any vegetables tomorrow, just tell me and I'll buy them and bring them back."

Ping'an spoke sincerely and kept working, so Cuizhi had no choice but to let him take it.

In this way, everyone welcomed the first night after arriving in Jinzhou.

After washing up, Wen Baizhi rarely went directly to bed to wait for sleep.

Instead, he took the Jinzhou provincial chronicle and read it carefully under the lamp.

When Si Jiu came back from washing up, he saw how serious she was and walked over to take a look.

"You go to bed and rest first. I want to watch for a while longer." Wen Baizhi didn't even raise her head.

Si Jiu sat down: "Are you reading the state annals?"

Wen Baizhi nodded: "I just find it strange. Jinzhou has never had a poor harvest before, but this year is strange. You know, Jinzhou used to hand over grain to the big states, but it happened to be a poor harvest when we were going to war with Chidu Country. It's hard not to imagine."

Perhaps Jinzhou hides many secrets that they don’t know about.

Just waiting for them to dig out the truth.
