Chapter 107 Arriving in Shangjing
Bai Guo finished speaking.
Qu Jingyao refused without even thinking.
She didn't want to have anything to do with that man at all. She couldn't even escape from him, so why would she rush to beg him?
"Let's not talk about this matter anymore, and you'd better not have any contact with him secretly, otherwise..."
Bai Guo quickly knelt down, and with a calm expression on her face, she said, "Master, don't worry. When the Master gave me to you, I severed all ties with you."
Qu Jingyao didn't doubt Bai Guo, she just wanted to warn her.
The little mouse quickly ate up all the food, called out to Qu Jingyao twice, then ran straight to the windowsill and jumped out.
The corners of Baiguo's mouth twitched as he looked at the little thing disappearing into the night. It was really incredible.
"Master, I will fetch some water for you to wash up. You can go to bed early."
"Okay." Qu Jingyao glanced at the dark night outside the window and nodded slightly.
The days passed one by one.
The houses in the village were half-renovated, which aroused the jealousy of many villagers.
Some bad rumors began to spread in the village, but Qu Jingyao turned a deaf ear to them. These people would slap her in the face sooner or later, and then she would see how they would beg her.
She had her brother and his men plant cotton on the reclaimed wasteland.
Some people in the village thought it was some kind of flower and accused Liu of spoiling the child and letting her do whatever she wanted.
Food is so precious nowadays!
Qu Qingchen and his sister did not explain, they would know in the future.
There have been more rumors in the town recently. The war situation on the border of Yuan Shao State is not optimistic. It is said that a city on the border has been occupied and the people in the city have been massacred...
Qu Jingyao decided to go to the capital to check out the situation that day. She sent Bai Guo to the town to bring back Mu Xiu's two younger brothers.
She told her mother that she was going to the next town to look into buying a farm, but Liu didn't think much about it.
Recently, the embroidery they made has been very popular in Wanniang's shop, making them a lot of money.
There are a lot of orders right now, and they are all scheduled until the end of the year. They are all too busy to handle it.
"Let your elder brother go with you, mother is worried..."
Liu said with a frown.
Qu Jingyao acted coquettishly to comfort her, and then whispered in her ear that she would be fine because of the gods' blessing.
Mrs. Liu knew that her daughter had some magical powers. After much persuasion, Mrs. Liu had no choice but to agree, but she asked her to come back today no matter what.
Qu Jingyao nodded in agreement. The next town was not too far away. If they rode there, they would be back around 10:00 p.m.
"Be careful on the road and come back early." Liu watched her leading the horse out of the yard and reminded her worriedly.
She smiled and nodded, then mounted her horse and galloped towards the cave.
She has become very proficient in horse riding recently.
This horse was bought by her and her elder brother in town. It is very docile.
She rode her horse out of the cave and slowly strolled through the dense forest until she reached the depths of the forest. After making sure that no one was around, she put the horse back into the space.
"Manman, I'm going to the capital using teleportation. I guess I won't be back until tonight."
"Okay, Master, please be careful and let the stinky fox stay with you. Otherwise, I will still be worried."
Qu Jingyao understood that if Manman was not inconvenient to reveal his true identity in front of the world, he would have followed it long ago.
However, in order to prevent it from worrying, I agreed to its suggestion.
"Little Fire, come out."
The little fox immediately appeared in front of her.
"Master, Xiaohuo is here to protect you."
Qu Jingyao rolled her eyes and told it to stay quietly on her shoulder as a decoration.
"Oh!"
Xiaohuo immediately jumped onto her shoulder and lay there quietly.
"Ready, let's go."
Qu Jingyao reminded him, and the next second he disappeared from the spot.
When he appeared again, he was already outside the gate of Shangjing City, thousands of miles away.
It was early morning, and many vendors and people coming to the city to buy things were queuing at the city gate.
"Master, you'd better wear a veil." Manman in the space reminded her.
"Ah?" Qu Jingyao didn't react for a moment.
Xiao Huo reminded her: "Master, don't you see that everyone around you is looking at you?"
Only then did Qu Jingyao realize what was happening and look at the eyes of the people around her.
There was amazement in the eyes of those men, and they stared at her with a burning glow.
Several women nearby twisted their husbands' ears, yelled and cursed, and rolled their eyes at Qu Jingyao and said:
"Vixen!"
She really wanted to curse her father in her heart: Is it her fault that she is so beautiful?
She covered her face with her sleeves and took out a white veil from space to hide her delicate face.
After sorting these out, she walked to the back of the team and waited quietly to enter the city.
It was her turn after an incense stick of time. The guards guarding the city looked her up and down, and finally let her in after asking her a few questions.
"Master, it's different when you go to the capital. It's so prosperous! Look at those girls, they are so beautifully dressed."
Qu Jingyao listened to Xiaohuo's chattering mouth beside her ear and really wanted to sew it up.
"Master, look, what's that over there? And that, and that..."
Unable to bear it any longer, she gritted her teeth and growled, "Shut up! You're just a decoration now. Do you understand what a decoration is?"
Seeing his master's fierce attitude, Xiaohuo immediately became quiet and obedient.
But the little eyes were still darting around, looking here and there.
Qu Jingyao came to a noodle stall and found a quiet place to sit down.
"What would you like to eat, girl?"
"Give me a bowl of vegetarian noodles."
After Qu Jingyao finished speaking, the proprietress asked her to wait with a smile. There were not many people at the noodle stall at that time.
The proprietress also happens to be a talkative person.
"Miss, you are not familiar with me, but have you just arrived in Shangjing City?"
Qu Jingyao smiled faintly and nodded, saying that she had come to visit her relatives.
"Let me tell you, such a beautiful girl is rare in Shangjing City. If she is from the capital, I will definitely know her. There is no one in Shangjing City that I don't know, and there is nothing I don't know."
The proprietress patted her chest and talked freely.
Qu Jingyao smiled, and then took the opportunity to ask her which was the most reliable dental clinic in the capital.
The proprietress extended her large hand and pointed in the southwest direction, saying, "See that place over there? It's the one at the very back of Qingshui Street. It has a good reputation, and the proprietress is very kind."
Qu Jingyao silently memorized it in her heart, and chatted with the proprietress for a while, finding out a lot about the capital.
Something like the son of a certain family married the daughter of a certain family, and something like the lady of a certain family is jealous.
Qu Jingyao's face was filled with black lines and the corners of his mouth twitched when he heard this.
It was not until she talked about the people living and working in peace and contentment that Qu Jingyao lowered her voice and imitated the gossiping manner of the boss lady:
"But on my way to Shangjing, I heard many people say that the war on the border was very tragic, but I didn't feel anything in Shangjing?"
