Chapter 7
They left here in the twilight, headed towards the path, and went to the nearest Anxin Town. From there, they could supply food and medicinal materials, and they could also stay in an inn for a solid night's rest, take a bath and rest.
It was dawn, and Boss Li went to the town alone to check around, and after inquiring about the situation, he came out to pick everyone up.
"You can go in, nothing special, the news of the town is blocked."
Anxin Town is not big, and the guards are not strict, so they let them in after a quick glance, and let them breathe a sigh of relief.
First, I found an inn to rest and asked for a few rooms.
The two old men live in one room with their children, Li Boss, Li Rui and Gu Lei live in one room, Gu Lin's, Gu San Aunt and Lin Yue live in one room, and Li Yu's mother and daughter share one room.
"Comrade, please feed the horses some feed, I will take some feed when I leave, and you will take care of the carriage."
Li Rui handed over a dozen copper coins to the guy.
"Don't worry, I'll fix it for you."
"Thank you for your hard work."
At this time, Boss Li came out with a burden.
"Let's go, let's take a bath in the hall first, and then go shopping."
"good."
Boss Li led Xu Yang and the others to take a bath and change into clean clothes.
Li Yu gave the buddy a reward, went to the backyard to boil water, and cooked some medicinal baths for everyone to take a bath. Can't find a doctor to see a doctor.
After busying around to settle everyone, it was finally my turn.
"Go and wash, I'm done."
Mrs. Wang has also washed up. On the road, I eat and sleep in the open. It is good for my body to take a bubble bath to get rid of the cold.
"good."
Li Yu then entered the space to take a shower.
Sit down after taking a bath, Mrs. Wang combs Li Yu's hair.
Simply fix the nun's head with a hairpin, and wrap the hair with a handkerchief to prevent dust.
Li Yu took out two small things, "Mother, these two things are for you, this is an arm crossbow, tied to the arm, this is a mechanism.
This little gadget is for holding in the hand, it can’t shoot too far, it will protect you, remember that both things only have three arrows, if possible, the arrows must be retracted. "
She gave her mother a small and delicate arm crossbow and a hidden weapon like a brush, and taught her how to use it.
"I can use it, this thing is really neat."
"It's a pity that there are too few materials, otherwise it could be more refined."
Li Yu also wore an arm crossbow for self-defense. These were made by her grandfather for her, and some of them were made by herself.
Mechanism making and drawing were specially taught by Boss Li when she was seven years old. When she was reborn, she naturally had to work hard to learn these practical crafts, and used them to help the clansmen escape in all directions at critical times. use.
"It was because your father couldn't stand your fuss when he asked you to learn the mechanism. I didn't expect you to learn it, and it helped our family a lot."
"This mechanism is very practical and will play a big role in the future."
"Are you going to keep Xu Yang?"
Wang asked a casual question.
"He has no one to rely on, and now he can only rely on our family to live a good life with enough food and clothing. I want to leave someone for Brother Xu to take care of him. I am afraid that he will get lost again. Xu Yang is an orphan since childhood. Wandering in the marketplace, he is smarter than Brother Xu."
"It makes sense, just stay if you like it."
"Mother, you have been tired for several days, go to bed early today, I will go buy some materials for the carriage to check."
"become."
The man came back, took a bath and changed his clothes, Xu Yang also changed his clothes neatly.
"Father, let's go shopping separately, we two go to buy food, let Leizi go to buy medicinal materials."
"Okay, then I'll go now."
"It's almost enough to buy something else."
"Father, buy some more water bags."
"OK."
After buying all the things, I went back.
Gu Lei and the others also came back and bought some commonly used medicinal materials for preparation. In case of illness, there are ready-made medicinal materials to use first.
"Yu'er, I bought you some candy and snacks."
"Why buy this when it's so expensive."
"You have worked so hard all the way, eat some candy to sweeten your mouth."
Gu Lei twirled a plum and put it in her mouth, his handsome peach eyes were a gentle and beautiful smile.
Gu Lei's appearance is rare and handsome, and he is also one of the best handsome men in the capital. A pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes add a bit of charm to him.
Li Yu shook his head while eating plums, showing a contented and happy smile, and the chick nodded as if pecking at rice, his eyebrows and eyes were curved, stained with a happy smile.
"It's delicious, you can eat one too."
Gu Lei also had a plum stuffed in his mouth.
"Sour."
His sour grin made Li Yu giggle coquettishly. His silver bell-like laughter was like a happy lark, and the sun seemed to have a cheerful atmosphere.
"Snacks are yours too."
"How do you know that I like to eat chestnut cakes and rice cakes."
Li Yu ate the cake with a bright and beautiful smile, and his bright eyes were stained with the light of broken gold.
Gu Lei stretched out his hand and scratched the bridge of her upturned nose, "I forgot that no one can remember your preferences wrongly. I dare to remember my aunt's preferences wrongly. You must not peel my skin."
His eyebrows and eyes are smiling, and his beautiful peach eyes are shining with a gentle light like water, bright and bright.
"If you have the heart, I'll find a gadget for you to play with."
Li Yu took out an aromatherapy pendant from his sleeve pocket.
It is a silver aromatherapy cage. It is exquisite and small, a bit like a gyroscope. The outer layer is hollowed out and carved, and the inner layer is copper.
Such exquisite things are more expensive, because they are exquisitely made, they can be hung on the body, and there is a faint fragrance that lingers all over the body.
"Where did it come from, this little thing is very precious now."
To put aside the conditions of their family background, this thing is just a thing, and there are many things bestowed by the emperor at home.
Now that you are fleeing famine, it is especially precious.
"The ones I left in the past were originally for you, but I forgot them when I got busy. I don't want to eat your snacks for nothing, so let me give you a small gift in return."
Li Yu chuckled lightly.
"Why are you being polite to me? We can't be separated from me. We have a childhood sweetheart, and half of my things are yours."
"This sounds good to my ears. You can keep it for fun. Refugees stink, and you like to keep clean and smoked clothes."
By the way, he also gave him a pack of fragrant medicine.
"good."
Gu Lei put away happily.
Lin Yue saw the two interacting intimately and tacitly at the door, and couldn't help feeling sour in her heart.
Clenched his fists, nails digging into the flesh, the pain couldn't keep up with the soreness and jealousy in his heart.
Why can't you see me all the time? How can I be inferior to Li Yu.
Li Yu glanced at Lin Yue, who had a bad complexion, but didn't say anything, and went to check the carriage by himself. Taking advantage of the convenience of shopping in the town, he had to fix the carriage quickly.
This carriage is special, it is a mechanism diagram drawn by her own hand, the carriage is not only strong and can run long distances, but also can hide weapons and hidden weapons, which can be of great use at critical times.
The car also has a folding table, a small stove to boil water, and a small cabinet for storing small things, which is very convenient.
