Chapter 189
Xiao Yuandu glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and saw Jiang Nu holding the hem of her skirt in one hand and covering her forehead with the other to protect her forehead from the rain. She lowered her head and watched the road very carefully, fearing slipping and falling, she took every step very carefully.Even when my feet got stuck in the mud and I struggled to pull them out, I never thought of asking for help from those around me.

If she doesn't open her mouth, is she still pointing at others to help her?They were all rushing home, who would pay attention to her!

With mixed thoughts in my mind, my footsteps subconsciously slowed down without noticing it.

When a group of people rushed to the small river in the light rain, they were suddenly dumbfounded.

The river crosses the road, but the bridge deck is gone. There are only a few big stones left, which were originally used to back up the planks. The intervals are so wide that it is difficult to cross.

The villagers took it for granted. They took off their straw sandals, rolled up their trouser legs, and started to drench while carrying farm tools.

His own wife was also there, and it seemed to be a common thing to hand over the farm tools to the woman and then carry them across the river on their backs.

There were fewer and fewer people, and finally only Jiang Fusang and Xiao Yuandu were left in place.

Xiutu also arrived at the other side at some point, and was waving at them, "Young master, come here with your young lady on your back!"

The women also joked, telling them not to be shy, "This terrain is not good, we often recite it like this."

The reason why Xiao Yuandu stayed until the end was because Xiutu whispered in his ear: "My lord, in front of so many people, you really threw the young lady to cross the river by yourself, what do others think?"

He looked around, but he didn't look at Jiang Nu.

When she finished rolling her trouser legs and stood up straight, she found that Jiang Nu was staring at the surface of the water, as if she was weighing the possibility of jumping over.

This heavy rain made the water surface soar, and the current was also fast. With her small body, it was difficult for her not to be washed away.

But Jiang Nu didn't make a sound, and there were so many pairs of eyes watching...

Xiao Yuandu stood with his hips on his hips for a while, and finally walked in front of Jiang Nu with a dark face, bent his back and squatted down, "Come up."

Seeing her not moving, Xiao Yuandu urged impatiently, "Hurry up, do you want to hurt my face?"

Jiang Fosang was speechless, seeing that the rain was getting bigger again, he stopped hesitating.

Suddenly there was some weight on his back, light and light, like a feather.Xiao Yuandu hesitated for a moment, confirmed that Jiangnu was really coming up, wrapped his arms around the back to hold her legs, straightened his waist and started to cross the river.

The river had reached his knees, and even though it was late spring, it was still somewhat cool.

Xiao Yuandu held his breath, and he didn't know who he was angry with, or he was angry with himself.

His mind was chaotic, thinking that he would put Jiang Nu down immediately after crossing the river, and when he came back to his senses, the river was already ten steps behind him.

Xiao Yuandu froze instantly.

Just when he was distracted for a while and forgot, Jiang Nu didn't remind him?It is very comfortable to be carried on the back!
Jiang Fusang didn't stop when he got on the shore. She wanted to remind him, but when she found that the dirt road leading to the village was muddy than before crossing the river, full of potholes and muddy water, she chose to shut up.

As for comfort, being carried on someone's back is more comfortable than drenching in muddy water, especially Xiao Yuandu's shoulders are wide and his back is broad, and he walks steadily, with almost no sense of shaking.

The villagers walking in front turned their heads and pointed at them from time to time, and then there was a knowing low smile, "Look, the county magistrate can love people..."

Xiao Yuandu was unable to get off the tiger, and it seemed a bit deliberate to put Jiang Nu down at this time.I had no choice but to keep moving forward.

Feeling annoyed and ashamed in my heart, I deliberately slowed down and slowly distanced myself from the crowd.

The rain became dense again, and my eyes were beaten hard.

Suddenly, a hand was over his eyes.

Xiao Yuandu said unhappily: "Just take care of yourself!"

Jiang Fosang felt that he only offered this kindness because he had something to do, but he just pretended not to hear it.

Xiao Yuandu pursed his lips, after all, he didn't say anything, and his pace increased again—this little rain didn't bother him, but he was afraid that Jiang Nu would fall ill and be blamed on him again.

Jiang Fosang's carriage was parked at a house at the far end of the village. It was strange that the carriage was there, but there was no one in the yard, and the door was locked.

After asking the neighbors on the left, I found out that just now Yu Xiao, the owner took the calamus and the driver up the mountain to pick her up, and took a shortcut.

This is good, the two are staggered.

"They are clever, and they went to find a place to hide from the rain." Xiutu found the horse, and when he heard that the calamus had gone to the mountain again, he put the rein in Xiao Yuandu's hand, "Young master, hold on, I will Go pick up calamus..."

Xiao Yuandu sneered, one or two, they all ate the guts of a leopard.

"Wait, put on this—" Old Man Jin Hoe lived across the street, and hurriedly brought him a coir raincoat and bamboo hat.

"Thank you, old man... Don't worry, young lady, I will definitely bring back the calamus!"

Xiutu yelled and ran away, the old man came over and said: "The eaves are not sheltered from the rain, you two go to the old man's house and sit down."

Jiang Fosang glanced at Xiao Yuandu, nodded slightly: "I'm bothering you."

On the opposite side is a Datong house in a fenced yard, where the dormitory and the kitchen are all together.The old man's house is more spacious, but the population is also large.

The family received them very warmly. They not only boiled hot water for simple washing, but also found clean clothes for them to change.

The shoes were already soaked, and the clothes were half wet, so Jiang Fosang didn't refuse, and took it after thanking him.

The old husband and wife were a little embarrassed, "These shoes are newly made, but this dress... I wore it once, don't dislike it, madam." At last she was better, and there were other things to do at home, and these were the most decent clothes she could find.

"Where is the sister-in-law?" Jiang Fosang went into the inner room and changed.

The dark brown skirts, the two of them are about the same height, but they fit well.

After changing, Xiao Yuandu will also change. At first glance, he is really the same as a country man and woman.

Mats were placed at the entrance of the main room, and the old man and grandma urged them to take their seats and went to work.

The two sat down and looked outside together, without speaking for a long time.

Grandma went out for a while and borrowed a pottery pot back, "The old slave had to compete with the county magistrate in hoeing the fields, and the county magistrate hurt his hand, this plaster will help."

Xiao Yuandu didn't want Jiangnu to know about this, but she did, and said sullenly that it didn't hurt her.

Grandma laughed, "When the county magistrate just washed his hands, his palms were red and swollen, and there were blisters. The old lady saw it."

Xiao Yuandu: "..."

"It's just like this before using a hoe. I think the hoe is tightly gripped. Fortunately, it didn't break the skin..."

Grandma was still comforting him, when the old man yelled in the kitchen.

Before Grandma left, she handed the pot to Jiang Fosang, "Madam, show me."

Jiang Fosang paused, then turned to Xiao Yuandu, "Is the concubine giving medicine to the husband?"

Xiao Yuandu sullenly wanted to say no.

He also remembered that he had carried her on his back just now, and it would not be unfair to let her serve him for a while, so he stretched out his hand.

The wound was on the tiger's mouth and palm of the left hand. I really don't know how to hold it.The reason why the skin is not broken is probably because the skin is rough and the flesh is thick.

Jiang Fosang dug out a ball with a piece of wood and wiped it on gently, Xiao Yuandu's cheeks still twitched.

Looking down, Jiang Nu lowered her head and couldn't see her face clearly.

The color of this dress was dim, which seemed a bit old-fashioned to her, but it made her complexion whiter and smoother.

Xiao Yuandu felt a little uncomfortable, his eyes moved away from the exposed part of the neck, moved down, and landed on the hand she was applying the medicine to herself.

It was found that the white and slender hands that should have been like bamboo shoots had several scratches on them.
