Just as Chen Mo said, Jiang Nu tossed and turned in bed all night, as if it was dawn in a daze. The room was filled with a strong smell of medicinal herbs.
As soon as he sat up, Chen Mo appeared in front of him with a bowl of sticky black stuff.
"What are you going to do?" Her subconscious reaction made her pick up those quilts. He didn't even touch him when he slept in the open air for the past two days, and now...
Chen Mo grabbed her ankle very roughly, just like what he did to her on the road that day. Chen Mo took off her footwear and saw her red feet for the first time.
Chen Mo's behavior made Jiang Nu's cheeks red and hot: This person is so rude in everything he does, doesn't he know etiquette?
Chen Mo didn't have these thoughts in his mind. He just quietly applied cool ointment to her twisted foot, then carefully wrapped it for her and passed the footwear back to her.
After all this happened last night, Chen Mo stood up and said, "Okay, let's have something to eat and then we'll set off."
"Oh." Jiang Nu nodded obediently.
With the innkeeper's various ideas still lingering, the two of them slowly left the town on horseback at dawn.
.......
There were very few people on the road in the early morning, and it was very clean. The only sound was the sound of horse hooves under the feet of the two people. Chen Mo sat on the horse with his eyes closed and calmed down, not worrying at all that the horse would go the wrong way.
Jiang Nu was also a little sleepy, but she didn't have as good a horse riding ability as Chen Mo. No matter how sleepy she was, she could only hold on.
Just as the town behind them disappeared from sight, there was a sound of horse hooves behind them. The sound of horse hooves was accompanied by the sound of several whips, as if they were afraid that their horses were not running fast enough.
After a while, a team of seven or eight people passed by Chen Mo and the two riders.
"Xu~"
As the man in white at the head gave an order, the speed of the entire team slowed down.
"Ah, girl, what a coincidence, we meet again." The man in white looked back and saw two familiar figures with a happy face.
It's him again.
Jiang Nu took a look and saw that it was the man in white he met outside the town yesterday. His surname was Zhou. What was his name? At that time, he had no intention of knowing his name.
Jiang Nu turned around and saw that Chen Mo had opened his eyes. His eyes seemed to be asking him: What should I do?
"I found it on purpose, it's not a coincidence." Chen Mo and his two riders continued to move forward at the same speed as before, and said calmly when they approached the pair of people.
There were eight people, six men and two women. The rest glanced at Chen Mo and turned away, looking at the woman in plain clothes and looking at her carefully.
"What did you say, little brother? Could it be that I am still a libertine with bad conduct? I and a few friends are about to go to Bian Feng City, and we want to take this road." The man in white said with a smile.
"Then please do it." Chen Mo replied.
"How can you talk like this? Mr. Zhou, didn't you just see an acquaintance stop and say a few words, and you are so shameless?" One person couldn't stand it and said in an aura.
"Besides, Mr. Zhou is not greeting you."
The man in white waved his hand, telling his hungry companion not to argue over such trivial matters.
"Sir, this little girl's husband has such a bad temper. Don't be offended." Jiang Nu tried to smooth things over, but he always felt awkward in his heart just because he wanted to address Chen Mo like this.
The group of people continued to move forward, with Mr. Zhou, Chen Mo and Jiang Nu walking at the front, and the rest of the group following behind. Unknowingly, they formed such a costume.
"It's okay. Miss, are you going to Bian Feng City now?" Mr. Zhou in white said.
"No, it's just that my husband is out for fun and has no exact destination."
Jiang Nu responded to Mr. Zhou's question out of upbringing. She didn't want to stick to them, but they slowed down their pace to chat with her, and she wanted to chase them away like Chen Mo? Chen Mo could do it, herself
But can't do it.
"I'm not praising you, and I don't mean to ask you to come with us. To be honest, Bian Feng City is worth a visit for you."
Then this week Young Master began to introduce various reasons why Bian Fengcheng was worth visiting, and his companions also echoed a few words.
At this time, Chen Mo was sandwiched between the two of them, which seemed very necessary. The companions accompanying Mr. Zhou were all talking behind his back without any scruples.
"Why is this boy so ignorant? Mr. Zhou chats so well with this girl. He is like a piece of wood. He just doesn't talk to her. He doesn't even know how to give up his position."
"That's it, are you afraid that our Mr. Zhou will snatch his wife away?"
"Every man is not guilty of having a jade in his possession." One person said while shaking his head, showing that he was very knowledgeable.
One woman also deliberately lowered her voice and said to another woman who was also a woman: "Sister, I heard that yesterday this shameless man saw his wife being bullied and didn't even say a word. He kept his head down and ate something that was knocked over.
It’s really cowardly to the extreme.”
"Really?!" Another woman covered her mouth in surprise. "Then how did this loser marry such a delicate woman? Could it be that they got married on the fingertips, which is really a sin. I feel bad for that sister.
value."
"Yes, look at Mr. Zhou, he is gentle and elegant, and has good martial arts skills. Only Mr. Zhou is worthy of such a woman."
The two women were at the end of the team gossiping. It was unclear whether their voices broke through the sound of horse hooves and reached the man's ears.
Mr. Zhou secretly glanced at Chen Mo's face. He did not see that he was ashamed or embarrassed because of this. He still looked dull, and the woman he admired could not clearly see the changes in her expression under the black veil.
"Girl, we have been chatting for so long, but we still haven't asked her her name." Mr. Zhou asked tentatively.
"You and I are just passers-by, just have fun chatting." Jiang Nu still had no intention of telling her name to this person who was really just a passer-by in her eyes.
"That's right." Mr. Zhou smiled sarcastically, seeming not to care that much, but he was already a little anxious: This little girl is really just relying on her beauty to reject people thousands of miles away, so why not marry an unfavorable person?
A useless person.
"How about it? After listening to what I said before, are you a little interested in Bian Fengcheng?" Mr. Zhou still had a calm look on his face.
"Young Master is from Bian Fengcheng?" Jiang Nu asked.
"The girl is so smart, she has guessed all this." Mr. Zhou said with a smile.
Jiang Nu muttered in his heart: If you are so familiar with a place, why do you need to guess?
"Our family is indeed doing some small business in Bian Feng City." Mr. Zhou said modestly.
"Master Zhou, if you say that your family is doing a small business, then we are just begging for food, hahaha." A companion of Mr. Zhou laughed and cursed, and the others laughed.
"Girl, don't listen to Mr. Zhou's self-deprecation. His family is always rich. He dare not say it in other places. But in Bian Fengcheng, there is nothing that Mr. Zhou can't buy. As long as the girl likes it, Mr. Zhou will definitely help you.
Buy it." Another classmate said loudly, for fear that the person between Mr. Zhou and the girl wouldn't hear.
"Girl, don't listen to their nonsense. Our family does run a small business, and we have some money. If the girl doesn't mind, as long as the girl arrives in Bian Feng City, the girl's food, clothing, housing and transportation will all be taken care of by me."
Zhou Shaozuo went from girl to girl, and the promises he made were only to Jiang Nu. As for Chen Mo beside Jiang Nu, he was like air, existing and not existing.
"Young Master Zhou, you are being a little unkind. I have known you for so many years, but I have never seen you treat our brothers so well."
Some people behind were jealous, especially the two women, who were extremely jealous, but Mr. Zhou laughed off their complaints.
"Thank you sir for your kind invitation."
When Jiang Nu said this, Young Master Zhou's eyes darkened: Is this something good or evil? Is this young master really going to give you face? Why don't you be more sensible?!
But he said: "Girl, if you say this, you are really wasting all your good intentions. Besides, there is nothing disgusting about it. I just invite the girl to visit Bian Feng City."
Mr. Zhou paused for a moment and continued: "Besides, I helped the girl get rid of the villain's siege. The girl will never refuse the invitation of a savior, right?"
"Besides, this little brother will follow me, so I'm not worried. Didn't I tell you that this little brother is very powerful? If I really have any evil intentions, you can ask this little brother to teach me a lesson."
"
"This..." Jiang Nu's eyes were already a little unhappy, but she couldn't make up her mind. She was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to Chen Mo, so she simply turned her eyes to Chen Mo who was watching the show. She didn't believe it.
This guy really ignored me.
"Do you want to go?" Chen Mo turned his head and looked at her, his eyes showing sincerity and a hint of joking.
Chen Mo!!!
Jiang Nu was going crazy inside. Suddenly she felt like she wanted to beat him up, and she was particularly excited about this feeling.
"How about we go take a look? We don't have to pay anyway." Jiang Nu asked again, once again leaving the decision-making power back to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo still wanted to throw the question back, but those behind him couldn't bear it anymore: Are they showing off their affection?
"I said, boy, can you please be more f*cking? You are more like a girl than a girl when you are whining. Mr. Zhou also has a good temper. If it were me, a person as ignorant as you, I would slap you with just one slap.
I can't get up from the ground." A person really can't stand this situation anymore.
"Are you in a hurry?" Chen Mo suddenly asked.
"There's no rush." Mr. Zhou said with a faint smile.
"Well, we're in a hurry, so we'll take the first step."
After Chen Mo finished speaking, with a "drive" sound, he took Jiang Nu with him, and the two of them rode away in a cloud of dust, leaving behind everyone who was stunned.
