I wish for a long time

Five days later, a group of people entered Dongming County eloquently.

Compared with Lancang County in the south, Dongming County in the hinterland of Yanzhou is obviously much colder.

Ye Jiu got out of the carriage in an ivory robe, stretched his waist casually, and jumped out of the carriage.

Because they have to worry about the old, weak, sick and disabled in their car, the overall pace is much slower than at the beginning.

"Come on, Shao'er, give me your hand."

Ye Jiu turned around and handed over his hand. At this time, Qi Shao'an had already stretched out half of his body, and he put his hand on it.

"Hiss, why do I feel, it's a bit cold."

Ye Jiu half hugged Qi Shao'an, and put his arms around her.

Qi Shaoan stretched out her hand to tighten her cloak, touched her robe, and suddenly frowned, "Ajiu, why are your clothes so thin?"

Ye Jiu lowered his head and glanced, "Ah, Bo?"

Wei Yu jumped down from the carriage, and said helplessly, "It's not that Brother Ye's clothes are thin, it's because Miss, your clothes are thick."

Qi Shao'an pondered for a while, and then he realized, his brows frowned even tighter, "Ajiu, you only bought me clothes?"

Seeing this, Ye Jiu hurriedly dragged her into the inn, "Well, let's go in first, it's windy outside."

Seeing her dodging eyes, Qi Shaoan understood, and followed her into the inn without asking any more questions.

"Jin'er, come here."

The old man and Nan Yuan entered the shop first, and they were already seated.

Ye Jiu pulled Qi Shaoan and walked over.

"We're here today for a day of rest and to prepare more food. After that, there will be no villages or towns to settle in for two or three days."

Seeing them sitting down, the old gentleman spoke.

Ye Jiu was a little surprised. During this trip, no matter it was a small town or a large county, he could basically stay in an inn every night. This was the first time he heard that he would sleep in the wild.

Qi Shaoan pursed her lips and thought for a while, "Leave this to me."

Ye Jiu turned his head, "You?"

The old gentleman nodded, "Alright, Nanyuan and I have something to do later, and I will leave the shopping to you two."

Ye Jiu and Qi Shao'an looked at each other, and agreed, "It's just a matter of time to go for a walk and relax."

But the old gentleman said, "Jin'er, don't take it lightly. This place is getting closer and closer to the Weihe River, so there's no guarantee that there won't be any trouble."

Ye Jiu still didn't understand at the moment, but when they finished their meal and went around the main street of Dongming County, they finally understood what the old man said.

I thought Lancang County was poor enough, but compared with Dongming County, it was already very lively.

It is obviously the largest commercial area in the city, but it can be described as sparsely populated at this time.

"Come on, are you sure you didn't get the wrong way?"

Ye Jiu turned his head suspiciously, looked at the dark-complexioned young man behind him, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Gan Yi hurriedly looked around, pointed at the archway in front of him, and said innocently, "Young master, look, this is not the Maoer Street that the aunt said."

Ye Jiu looked at the archway for a while, then looked sideways at Qi Shaoan, "Shall we try around?"

Qi Shaoan nodded, looked around, and pointed to a steamed stuffed bun stall not far away, "That's it."

When several people stood in front of the stall, the owner's eyes lit up.

"Several guests, the big buns just out of the pot, how many can you try?"

Ye Jiu took a look with his head, roughly counted the number, and said, "Two drawers, take them away."

The boss's bamboo clip shook and almost fell to the ground.

"Young master, our small business is even more difficult these days. If you are joking..."

The more Ye Jiu listened, the more confused he became, "Am I kidding, buy buns, do it, and give me money."

Seeing that Ye Jiu turned to leave, the boss grabbed her sleeve across the table, "My lord, let me make a deal first, these buns cost ten cents apiece."

Ye Jiu frowned when he heard this, "Brother, are you stealing money?"

Although Qi Shao'an is not like Ye Jiu who hangs around in the shopping mall, but the ten yuan for a steamed stuffed bun sounds a bit outrageous no matter how it sounds.

The steamed stuffed bun owner closed the cage, sighed and said, "Usually, it's two coins. Even in the past two months, rice and noodles are terribly expensive. There's nothing we can do about it."

Ye Jiu's expression softened slightly, and he asked, "Why?"

The boss then explained: "It's not because of the frost disaster in the north. Dongming County is high-lying and surrounded by mountains. It mainly produces fruit. Most of the grain comes from Linhe County in the north. But after the frost disaster, there is still no food supply there. That would take care of us."

Ye Jiu asked again: "Then where did you come in?"

"Naturally, we enter from the counties of Lancang and Yonglin, which are a little farther south, but the distance is far away, so the price has naturally gone up."

"In less than two months, it has doubled by five times. This business is becoming more and more impossible."

The boss suddenly felt chest pain, and heaved a long sigh:

"It's not just rice, flour and food, even cotton clothes and cloth are a little tight. But fortunately, we in Dongming County have our own mulberry, so we can turn around a little bit."

Ye Jiu and Qi Shao'an's expressions were a little dark when they heard the words.

She thought that there should be hidden dangers along the Weihe River, but she didn't expect that even the central part of Yanzhou would have such a reaction.

"Wrap up the buns and add another drawer."

Ye Jiu pursed his lips and pulled Qi Shaoan away.

Gan Yi stayed and waited for the boss to pack, and Kun Er followed behind them.

"Ajiu."

After walking for a long time, Qi Shao'an saw that the people beside him still kept their heads down and did not speak, so he called softly.

Ye Jiu was still immersed in his own world.

Suddenly there was a slightly forceful kneading from her hands, and she regained her composure, turned her head, and met Qi Shaoan's worried eyes.

"I'm thinking about what the boss said just now."

Ye Jiu heard the words and nodded lightly, "Yes."

Looking at the cold street, Qi Shaoan said in a clear voice, "There is also Linjiang County."

Ye Jiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled wryly: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Shao'er."

She raised her head and looked ahead, "Dongming County is still three days' drive away from the Weihe River. If this is the case, then what will Linhe County look like?"

Now that farming is the primary productive force, natural disasters have become the deadliest problem.The quality of the harvest can be said to determine the life and death of the people in this area.

Qi Shao'an turned his head to look at the shops along the street, some noodle shops and pastry shops have already closed, "I'm afraid it's the same for Buzhuang."

Ye Jiu pondered for a while, "Then let's store more, maybe it will come in handy."

Sure enough, as they expected, whether it is a cloth shop or a clothing store, the prices are much higher than those in Lancang County.

But it's not as ridiculously high as rice noodles.

The suitable cotton and winter clothes in the clothing store were basically empty by them, and there were even a few thick quilts.

So when Qian Yikuner saw the mountain-like burden in front of him, he almost fainted.

In the end, two servants who guarded the store were called to move back.

"Come on, what is the old man doing?"

He threw two bundles on the ground, rubbed his shoulders, shook his head and said, "I don't know, sir, he never tells us about his actions."

Holding a bundle in his arms, Ye Jiu pursed his lips in thought.

For some reason, whenever they went to a not-so-small county, the old man and Nan Yuan would always disappear for a while.

She didn't notice it at first, but she noticed it later as the number of times increased.

As a result, the guards didn't know either.

"Let's stuff things into the carriage, and tie the rest to the roof."

Ye Jiu stopped worrying about where the old man had gone, pointed to a few bags, turned around and said.

There are two carriages in total, and the second one was newly added from Lancang County.

Even if all the grids are filled, and even two bundles are tied to the roof, there is still no place for the brocade quilts.

In the end, I had to spread the quilts one by one on the seat, and the work was barely completed.

Ye Jiu saw that he was fully equipped with a luxurious version of the "Bao Ding" carriage, and he was still a little bit excited in his heart.

"Everyone has worked hard, wash up and go to bed." She clapped her hands in satisfaction and went back to her room.

So when the old man and Nan Yuan came back and saw his young master's perfect masterpiece, his mind, which had been chaotic all afternoon, was instantly sober.

And quite sober.

……

When Ye Jiu returned to the room, Qi Shaoan had already tidied up.

Qi Shaoan stood bent over by the bed, fiddling with the candlestick.

Ye Jiu walked over lightly.

"Thank you, Shao'er."

She glanced sideways at the quilt that had been made on the bed, and felt as if someone was holding her and kissing her, it was so warm.

Qi Shaoan cut off the candle wick, turned around and pointed to the basin stand, "Go and wash your face, like a cat."

Ye Jiu was stunned for a moment, and touched his face uncertainly, but his fingertips were gray and black.

"Uh, I'm going right now."

Seeing her walking quickly from the corner of her eye, Qi Shao'an smiled lightly.She unbuttoned her coat and sat on the bed.

Ye Jiu finished washing quickly, with water still dripping from her face and hands, she wiped it casually, walked to the table, and picked up a dark red dumpling.

"Come on, hold."

Qi Shaoan stared at the stuff stuffed into her bosom, and was stunned for a moment, but the warmth in her hands came faster than her thoughts.

"The farther you go to the north, the colder it gets. You must not catch the cold, get into the quilt quickly."

After Ye Jiu stuffed Qi Shao'an and the stove into the quilt, he began to untie himself.

Qi Shaoan was lying on the bed, looking sideways at her as she took off her cloak and robe one by one...

Ye Jiu in men's clothing returned to his original appearance as Mr. Pianpian, but his slender waist was always tight.

It wasn't until Ye Jiu was wearing a middle coat and his hair was hanging down his shoulders that his peaceful and soft appearance slowly revealed again.

Qi Shao'an just watched quietly, without taking his eyes off it.

"What's the matter Shao'er?"

Qi Shao'an's thoughts drifted further and further away, and Ye Jiu didn't even notice when he walked to the bedside.

She regained her senses, shook her head lightly, and put her legs away so that Ye Jiu could crawl in smoothly.

"call……"

Ye Jiu lay on the bed, only then did he feel a little tired.

As soon as she pulled the quilt, a soft and fragrant body pressed against her.

Ye Jiu's eyebrows were stained with a smile.

Her Shao'er seemed to have gotten used to it, and would only sleep in her arms every night.

Even what he was most worried about, the nightmare and raving every night, hardly appeared.

Ye Jiu's smile deepened.

She turned her head and found the little furry head. Before she could say good night, she was blocked back.

Qi Shao'an suddenly raised his head and kissed her lips.

Ye Jiu blinked blankly, and only when he felt a small tongue had penetrated in did he feel relieved.

Qi Shaoan kissed passionately.

When they parted, both of them panted a little.

Ye Jiu traced Qi Shao'an's eyebrows with his fingers, and suddenly said: "Shao'er, are you tired?"

Qi Shaoan was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and met those bright eyes.

She looked at it for a few breaths, then bent the corners of her lips, before kissing her again, she smiled lightly and said:

"Not tired."
