After leaving the candy shop, Que Wu asked: "Why can I give him gold wire, but not my precious stones and silver jewelry?"
Wen Jiaojiao: "Then do you think I'm stingy?"
Que Wu handed her the already cold candy cake: "No, I just want to know the reason."
Wen Jiaojiao took a bite of the warm sugar cake, and the soft and sweet taste instantly filled her mouth, "It's so delicious, you can eat it too."
Que Wu looked at the candy cake handed over by Wen Jiaojiao, grabbed her hand and bent down to take a bite, biting off half of her piece in one bite.
Wen Jiaojiao: "..." He is indeed a giant! One bite is as strong as ten of hers.
Que Wu couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw Wen Jiaojiao's expression as he stared at the candy cake, like a helpless puppy being robbed.
"I'll buy another one for you."
Seeing Que Wu's smile, Wen Jiaojiao retracted his hand and said, "No, it's enough."
She's not hungry either, just greedy.
Wen Jiaojiao and Que Wu were walking side by side. While eating candy cakes, she said to him: "The old man just now took his little granddaughter out to the stall at such an old age, in such a cold weather, and so late, and their clothes were already worn.
It's washed out, white, and full of patches, so your family must be in a very bad situation."
"We in Beiyuan are different from your foreign countries. We can barter directly. For ordinary people, ordinary people can buy a lot of things for their daily use. They have to go to some banks or pawn shops to exchange them for equivalent circulating currency.
, that silver jewelry of yours is not only valuable, it looks like a foreign object at first glance. A person from a poor family would be in trouble if he carries such a valuable thing."
"Moreover, I recently heard from my second brother that Beiyuan is investigating foreigners. If they take your things, they may be targeted by the government. My gold wire is just right. Maybe I can help their grandsons get more.
With winter clothes and a charcoal fire, you can have a good winter."
After hearing this, Que Wu stopped and looked at Wen Jiaojiao with twinkling eyes, "Little Moon, you are really smart."
As an aristocratic daughter who grew up in a wealthy family, she is not only smart, but also observant. She will not be generous just because she is rich. She will consider practical considerations and is considerate of the couple selling candy cakes.
Sun, don’t bring trouble to them.
Wen Jiaojiao felt a little uncomfortable under Que Wu's eager eyes. She avoided his eyes, took a bite of the candy cake, and said with bulging cheeks: "Of course, so don't try to kidnap me, I'm not stupid."
, I won’t be deceived by your sweet words.”
Que Wu lifted up his mask to reveal his cheeks, looked down at Wen Jiaojiao and said, "My words are not rhetoric, but words from the bottom of my heart."
Wen Jiaojiao looked at Que Wu's tall figure standing in front of her. He stood in the bright light, casting a shadow in front of her, blocking the cold wind behind him.
Snowflakes fell from his head, and the hazy light highlighted his tall figure and exquisite alien appearance. The beautiful silver jewelry and colorful clothes that reflected the light made him look like a god who had descended into the mortal world.
It is the colorful statue of the god enshrined in the temple that manifests its true form.
Wen Jiaojiao looked up at him, swallowed the candy cake in his mouth, and then burped, instantly ruining the beautiful atmosphere.
Que Wu chuckled lightly and pushed her broken hair that was messed up by the mask to her face.
Wen Jiaojiao felt the heat on Que Wu's fingertips and wondered what Que Wu was made of and why it always looked like a small stove. Even the look in her eyes could feel the heat.
Wen Jiaojiao was already afraid of the cold. Even though she was wearing cold-proof clothes specially prepared for her by A Niang and the others, she could not help but feel the chill that penetrated her bones.
Que Wu saw Wen Jiaojiao folding her cloak and knew that she was a little cold, so he pulled her towards him and said, "If you're cold, come closer to me."
Wen Jiaojiao saw that it was getting late and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to show me the direction of Salo? I'll go home after seeing it."
Yuzhu and the others would take turns getting up at night to see how she was sleeping and checking the charcoal fire. If they found that she was gone, the entire Xiao Mansion would be in trouble.
Que Wu squatted down in front of Wen Jiaojiao with his back turned, "You must be tired after walking for so long."
Wen Jiaojiao looked at this generous back, hesitated for a moment and lay down on it. The moment he lay down on it, Wen Jiaojiao couldn't help but sighed to himself: What a small stove...
Que Wu was wearing a piece of clothing that was not too thick. Through this layer of clothes, she could feel the heat on his body. She hugged Que Wu's neck and put her cold cheek against his back.
Pressed against Que Wu's back, Wen Jiaojiao could hear his powerful heartbeat, "dong dong dong" rhythmically like the sound of a drum.
Que Wu carried Wen Jiaojiao towards the city wall. There were guards beside the city wall, so he took her directly over the city wall.
This city wall was much higher than the courtyard wall of Xiao Mansion. Wen Jiaojiao watched Que Wu jump onto the city wall with his dexterity in a few movements, which scared her so much that her heartbeat accelerated a lot.
Fortunately, her mental quality is not too bad, otherwise her heart, which is suffering from heart disease, would really not be able to withstand such a shock.
The feeling of flying up and down is completely different from what I experienced in the TV series.
Que Wu took her to the top of the wall, which was not guarded for the time being. As soon as she climbed up, Wen Jiaoyao got off his back and walked to the wall to look at the lights of the capital city inside the wall.
Standing on the high city wall, you can have an unobstructed view of the entire capital city. The lights of thousands of houses are visually shocking, and people's mood becomes open.
Que Wu stood behind Wen Jiaojiao and said: "Little Moon, this is where you live. It is a square and round place, and you can see it all at a glance. If you want, I will take you to the border, to the outside of the Great Wall, to the country of all nations."
"There are better scenery outside. If you are tired, you can stay in Salo. I will accompany you wherever you want to go."
Que Wu and Wen Jiaojiao turned around and looked outside the city wall. There were only a few scattered lights in the distance, which should be villages and towns in the distance.
"Go all the way west from here. As long as you go west, you don't have to worry about taking the wrong road. You will definitely reach Salo."
Wen Jiaojiao looked along Que Wu's hand, and there was only darkness further away. She knew that even in the daytime, she could not see very far away.
Looking at the vast mountains and rivers, Wen Jiaojiao said softly: "Que Wu, what if I want to stay in the capital for the rest of my life and never go to Salo for the rest of my life?"
Que Wu saw her looking up at him, with warm and gentle eyes, and said: "If you make a decision to be with me, then I will come to the capital."
Wen Jiaojiao turned her face to one side and said, "Who said I want to be with you?"
After saying that, Wen Jiaojiao couldn't help but look at him and asked: "You are the king of Sarao and the king of your subjects. Do you want to abandon the throne for a little foreign girl thousands of miles away?"
Que Wu stretched out his hand and gently touched Wen Jiaojiao's cheek, "We Saluo, regardless of male or female, are all brave and intelligent. Everyone should be a king. They can have many kings, but I only have one little moon."
