The Prematurely Deceased Fiance Dressed As a Heroine - Chapter 160

Beizhou is quite far from Chang’an. If it is a fast-paced report, it will probably take ten days to run, and it will be even slower to change to a carriage.

Wen Fei took his daughter-in-law northward, and was not in a hurry. Although he had never traveled along the way, he would take a rest when he was tired and eat and drink when he was hungry. It was a lot slower than marching on the road before.

This night, a group of people rarely missed the hostel, and had to sleep outside-it was not that there was a problem with the arrangement. It was just that after leaving Chang’an, the more they went north and the dying, although they are not inaccessible along the official road, the villages and towns are indeed more and more. The less come. It is inevitable that a fast horse gallops and sleeps out, let alone a horse-drawn carriage that walks slowly, and there are bound to be more and more opportunities for street sleepers in the future.

Fortunately, the weather was not too cold right now, and Chu Xi also brought a lot of luggage with the army on the north trip. The long convoy of food, clothing, housing and transportation required almost everything, and they were all properly purchased in accordance with Chu Xi’s habits. Also Wen Fei’s guards have long been used to marching on the way. Although the situation is slightly different now, there is no doubt that the conditions are better than those of marching.

So in the evening, the group of people chose a campsite to sleep in, then set up camps, light fires, defend, and patrol. They didn’t need to order from Chu Xi and Wen Fei at all, and everyone prepared in an orderly manner.

Chu Xi had been in the car for a whole day, and her back was sore. After the team stopped, she quickly got out of the car and started a few laps of activities.

Wen Fei patrolled the camp and felt relieved when he saw everyone doing things properly. When he came over, he saw Chu Xi flexing his hands and feet slightly. She walked forward and handed the hot water that had just been boiled: “It’s still a bit hot, so you just hold it and cover your hand first.”

In September, when the clothes were given, the weather has gradually cooled down. Although it is not cold yet, a gust of wind also added a little bit of coolness. Two years ago, when Chu Xi fell into the water, she came back to the foundation and hurt her foundation. In the past two years, although the Chu family has given her some care, she still suffered from cold hands and feet. It was fine in summer, and the weather turned slightly cooler, and her hands and feet began to get cold, and in winter they were like ice cubes.

Wen Fei is always attentive to Chu Xi, so he quickly discovered this. Fortunately, it’s not too cold now, so she often holds Chu Xi’s hand to warm her, and she covers her hands and feet when resting at night.

It’s just that Chu Xi let go in private, she was shy when she was out, and she was not allowed to be too intimate on weekdays, so Wen Fei often found something to warm her hands.

Chu Xi took the water sac from Wen Fei, and it was as warm as a warm water bag. Her slightly cold fingertips quickly became hot, and after holding her hands for a while, she opened the water sac and took a small sip, with a smile on her face.

The afterglow of the setting sun happened to fall on her face, and the bright color was reflected in her clear eyes, and Rourou seemed to be soft-hearted at all times. Wen Fei moved in his heart, and suddenly stepped forward and kissed her in the eye. Then, before Chu Xi was annoyed to push her, he consciously took a step back, and said nonchalantly: “Today, we were in a car and it was bumpy for a long time. Why don’t we walk around? , Can also do some activities.”

Chu Xi had lost her temper, gave her a sideways look, and nodded in the end. Wen Fei knew that she was not very angry when she saw it, so she immediately stepped forward, holding her daughter-in-law’s hand with one hand, and was satisfied with her fingers.

The latter turned his head to look at her, did not refuse, but moved closer in silence, covering one or two with wide sleeves like a thief.

Wen Fei knew what she was thinking, so she didn’t feel annoyed, so she just chuckled twice. After that, the two of them walked slowly among the unfamiliar mountains and plains under the setting sun, with long shadows falling on the ground, cuddling each other, and their intimacy was unusual.

After crossing a hillside, Wen Fei looked up and saw clusters of unknown wild flowers blooming on the hillside. Although not as precious as the famous species, they were blooming enthusiastically. When she thought about it, she immediately raised her hand to pick a few flowers and handed them to Chu Xi, and said to her: “The weather is getting colder. It is not good for you to sit in the car and always raise the curtain to see the scenery outside. If you don’t want to put this flower away. In the carriage, also add a touch of color.”

“Very good, I like it very much.” Chu Xi agreed and took the wildflowers with a crooked smile. Then she looked around and saw that they were a little far away from the camp, and no one saw them. She raised her hand to hook Wen Fei’s neck and pulled her down, and then kissed her.

Wen Fei’s eyes widened a bit with surprise, and naturally he didn’t want to miss the opportunity, and responded to the unexpected reward with joy.

************************************************** *****************

The encampment is all taken over by the guards and servants. Wen Fei and Chu Xi are considered idlers, and everyone knows the interest and will not bother them. So the two of them went out for this trip, until the sunset was over, and the twilight gradually grew, then they turned back.

Chu Xi held the splendid bouquet of wild flowers in her hand and handed it to Yu Dongshi, who also gave it a special reminder.

Yu Dong knew at first sight that this flower must have been given by Wen Fei, and even the wild flowers all over the mountains and plains were suddenly precious. She didn’t say anything, only smiled at her girl, and then took the flowers back and put them in a bottle in the carriage. In my heart, I am sincerely happy for my girl. After all, the northwest is bitter and cold, so it’s not as good as Chang’an, but if you have a close person with you, you can live up to this trip.

The two came back a little later. The camp was well set up, the small tents were pitched in a circle, and several fires were born. They had all the things they brought for the trip. At the moment they set up a pot to cook, and the aroma of the food along with the smoke has spread throughout the camp.

“This is what it is made of. It’s quite fragrant.” Chu Xi had a rare experience like this, and it was a bit novel. After asking, she curiously asked: “Afei, when you are marching and fighting, do camping and cooking work like this?”

Wen Fei was familiar with this scene, and he guessed it with a sniff of his nose: “It’s boiled jerky. Someone should go hunting before dark. When the conditions for marching and fighting are not so, The food for my head coach is not bad, but ordinary soldiers don’t have much good food to eat.” After talking about what he thought of, he laughed again: “But my subordinates are not bad. Eat all the way.”

She said and blinked at Chu Xi. After all, what to eat all the way, it must be the cattle and sheep of the northern barbarian herdsmen. I didn’t raise it by myself, it doesn’t hurt at all to eat, and it’s extraordinarily fragrant.

Chu Xi knew what she meant, and was uncomfortable with this method of raising war through war, but she couldn’t help thinking more about it-eating the enemy’s cattle and sheep is natural and delicious. Where can the army be able to provide regular supplies? Maybe you can’t eat three meals a day, and you can’t find the northern barbarian herders and you can’t miss your chances. When you were hungry, you even had to gnaw the grass roots, right?

Inexplicably, she felt a bit of pity in her heart, but Chu Xi didn’t want to say more: “Then let’s go and see how the meal is doing?”

The meal is ready, and there are not only dried meat and game that Wen Fei guessed, but because it is the first night that there are plenty of supplies, and even fresh vegetables and vegetables. In addition, Chu Xi also brought a cook to the north, and this meal is not only not a good meal, but even a special flavor.

A meal was delicious. After the meal, Wen Fei and Chu Xi only moved a little, and then they sat by the fire and chatted — the end of September is almost winter, and there is autumn sun in the daytime. Whatever I feel, it is a bit cold at night. In addition, Chu Xi is a little bit chilly at first, so it will be much more comfortable to cook at this time, and wait for a later time to rest.

The two were talking gossip, when Chu Xi saw Wen Fei throwing something into the fire, and pulled the dry wood a few times. Without seeing what it was, she asked, “Afei, what did you throw into the fire just now?”

Wen Fei did not hide it from her, and opened his palm to show her: “It’s the chestnut picked by the guards.”

September is when the chestnut matures. Although it is a bit late at this time, the guards ran into a few wild chestnut trees when they entered the forest to hunt. So on a whim, he picked a lot of them back, peeled them, and then sent them to Wen Fei’s hands for her to roast and eat. Although this is not as delicious as sold on the street, it is also a good snack.

Chu Xi had naturally eaten chestnuts, but all she ate was peeled by the servants, so she had never seen such fresh ones. With a bit of curiosity, he took two from Wen Fei’s palm and asked, “Will it be charcoal?”

Wen Fei suddenly smiled confidently: “Naturally not, choose a good location, just consider the time.”

It is not the first time that Wen Fei made roasted chestnuts. There are more opportunities to get started in Beijiang than in Chang’an. She pulled the chestnuts to the bottom of the fire, calculated the time again, guessing that it was almost time, and pulled out all the chestnuts that had been thrown in. Only those chestnuts were billowing in black paint, and they looked like coke, so that people didn’t know how to start.

Chu Xi watched for a while, tentatively trying to take one and peel it off, but was stopped by Wen Fei: “It’s still hot, wait a minute.” After waiting for a while, he didn’t let Chu Xi do it, so she picked it herself. Peel off one to see.

She really had the experience of roasting chestnuts. Don’t look at the chestnuts as if they were burnt, but they just saw the golden flesh when they peeled them off.

Wen Fei didn’t make a mistake when he saw that he smiled immediately, and only handed the chestnut that had just been peeled to Chu Xi and said, “A Chu, let’s try it. Is the roasted chestnut still delicious?”

Chu Xi didn’t dislike her when she saw her hands full of black ash, she took the golden pulp and blew it slightly, then put it into her mouth. The entrance is still a bit hot, but when the teeth bite the pulp, it feels soft and delicious, and the mouth is sweet and sweet… This wild chestnut tastes good, and the heat of the roasted chestnut by Wen Fei is also very good. .

Seeing that she seemed satisfied, Wen Fei asked, “How?”

Chu Xi smiled, and while Wen Fei didn’t pay attention, she took a chestnut and peeled it off. She peeled it and said: “Very good.” After peeling it, he handed it to Wen Fei’s lips: “Afei, you can taste it too.”

Wen Fei happily bit it, and it feels sweet. The daughter-in-law peels and feeds it even more sweet.

It’s just that she wasn’t as careful as Chu Xi, and when she bit her, her lips were stained with black and gray, and she looked a little funny when she laughed. Chu Xi couldn’t hold back the more grinning on her face when she watched. Wen Fei was puzzled to ask, but she changed her conversation and said, “I was eating chestnut today. I suddenly remembered that I met a water bandit two years ago. For your rescue, we did not eat that night, so you found hazelnuts to eat, do you remember?”

Wen Fei naturally remembered that when he talked about the hazelnut, he took out a squirrel’s granary and found it. But what is the relationship between hazelnut and chestnut? She was a little at a loss, but she also followed Chu Xi’s words and recalled the past.

The two talked about the past, eating chestnuts, and then went to rest in the small tent until the night darkened.

The next day the weather was clear, and the group continued on the road. In the middle of the afternoon, Chu Xi received another gift from Wen Fei—a squirrel that was alive and well locked in a cage.

The author has something to say: Squirrel (vicissitudes of life): I don’t know you, and I am not a relative of the squirrel back then, and there are no hazelnuts in my granary. Really, let me go! !
