After wearing books, I was spoiled by my nemesis

Chapter 59 On the Road
After washing up, Zhao Ying'er sat and waited for Chu Yun to come over.

Because Ah Mo was injured, he couldn't go out with him this time, so Chu Yun brought another man in his 20s. He was more mature than Ah Mo, with wheat-colored skin, and he spoke in silence. rare.

His name is Li Qi, and he followed Chu Yun to Xiaoxuanyuan to pick Zhao Yinger out of the house.

Zhao Ying'er doesn't have too many clothes, but she has a lot of dry food in her bag, and a lot of melon seeds, pastries, and dried fruits, because she used to travel by train, and she took the train for more than 20 hours. Apart from the inconvenience of eating, she was also very boring. , Bring more food, you can eat something to pass the time when you have nothing to do on the road.

Chu Yun walked in and glanced at her baggage: "Princess, let's go."

Zhao Ying'er stood up and wanted to get the burden, Li Qi hurried over and took the things in his hands.

"Just let your subordinates do these things."

"Thank you then."

The few of them got into the carriage after leaving the mansion. It would have been faster to ride a horse, but considering that Zhao Yinger couldn't ride a horse, they had to take a carriage.

Zhao Yinger and Chu Yun were sitting in the carriage, while Alian and Li Qi were driving the carriage outside.

When she walked to the street, Zhao Ying'er stopped the carriage again, bought some vermicelli buns and roast chicken, and after she finished shopping, she got into the carriage with her things.

When the carriage was in the city, it moved very slowly. Because there were many people on the streets in the city, if you ran too fast, you were afraid of bumping into people, so you ran slower.

After turning a few streets and passing some shops, the carriage ran slowly towards the outside of the city. After running through the lively market, there were fewer people on the road and they ran faster.

There are soldiers guarding the gate of the city, but now the control is not strict, you can enter and leave the city at will, and the carriage leaves the city.

Since Zhecheng is a little far away from here, we still have to hurry up to get there quickly.

When they left the city, the sky was clear, but after walking for several hours, the sky became cloudy, and it looked like it was going to rain, so Li Qi suggested finding a place to shelter from the rain.

Since there are no towns nearby, only some villages, walking, there is a small temple on the side of the road, so they stopped in front of the temple.

And it's already noon now, it's time to eat, and eat some food while sheltering from the rain.

Zhao Ying'er got off the carriage and entered the temple. The wind was already blowing outside, and it looked like there would be a heavy rain.

It rained just after I came out, it seems that today is not suitable for going out.

The temple is fairly clean, there is a statue inside, and there are tributes on the table in front of the statue, it seems that people often come to offer incense.

There were still a few small stools at the entrance of the temple, so Zhao Yinger pulled a small stool over and sat down.

Li Qi tied up the horse and went out to find some branches. He didn't know how long the rain would last, and whether he would spend the night here. If he wanted to spend the night, the weather was a bit cold, and some branches would be warmer.

And with the branches, you can boil hot water. You still need to drink hot water outside, and you still need to drink less cold water.

Chu Yun also sat down, watching the strong wind blowing everything outside, and the dilapidated wooden door was also rattled by the wind.

Zhao Ying'er got up and closed the door, the outside wind was still blowing in through the crack of the door.

"It looks like it's going to rain heavily."

She could smell the humidity in the air, and the sky was very cloudy, and lightning flashed across the sky from time to time.

"Yeah, we're not in a hurry, just wait here and wait until the rain stops before we go."

"It can only be this way."

Zhao Ying'er took the bag, opened it, and took out the steamed stuffed bun inside. Although the steamed stuffed bun was a bit cold, it was not hard enough to eat. She took the steamed stuffed bun and gnawed on it.

She didn't dare to eat along the way, because Chu Yun sat upright, didn't eat, and rarely drank water, so she didn't dare to eat.

With such an educated person sitting beside her, it seemed unrefined for her to gorge herself on food.

Zhao Ying'er also deliberately stayed away from Chu Yun, so as not to form a sharp contrast with him.

People depend on food, and they eat when they are hungry.

After eating a bun in a few bites, she took out one and handed it to Chu Yun: "My lord, would you like to eat a bun to fill your stomach?"

Chu Yun glanced at the cold bun with some disgust: "Don't eat it, it's cold."

Zhao Ying'er really wanted to tell him that it's good to eat something, so don't pick it up, but after she glanced at him who was as confident as a big brother, she kept her words in her heart.

After all, he is a prince, unlike a commoner like her, he doesn't pay so much attention.

Although Chu Yun didn't eat cold steamed stuffed buns, seeing Zhao Ying'er eating them with gusto, he asked curiously, "Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious. There are vermicelli tofu in the buns, and some secret seasonings and peppers are added. It's fragrant and spicy. After eating one, I want another one. If you want to eat it, I'll leave you a few, and I'll string it with twigs later. Put it on the fire and roast."

"Set it on fire?"

Chu Yun didn't know where Zhao Ying'er heard about these weird ideas. He hadn't tried roasting food on the fire, so he didn't know what it would taste like.

"You can try."

"Then I won't eat it for now, and I'll bake it for a while. The taste is indeed worse when it's cold, and it's not as good as it was when it was just out of the pan."

Zhao Yinger wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, waiting for Li Qi to come back.

The wind outside is getting stronger and stronger, and the trees are about to be blown off. It seems that today is really not a good day to go out. I knew it would rain heavily today, so I postponed coming out for a day.

They waited for a long time, during which they were also worried that Li Qi would be blown away by the wind, but when they saw him coming back with a pile of dry branches, the worry disappeared.

Zhao Yinger: "Li Qi, where did you find so many branches, these should be enough."

"If you stay here overnight, I'm afraid these branches are not enough, but it's enough for cooking."

"The wind outside will blow people away, so don't go out, eat first, and then talk about other things after eating."

Li Qi put the branches on the ground, and went to get the pots and pans from the carriage, but there was no water here, and these things were not needed.

Thunder roared outside, and raindrops were already falling. Li Qi tied the horse to the next hut, and then walked in with pots and pans in his arms.

No sooner had he walked in than it began to rain heavily.

It was very dark, and if there were no lights in the house, it would be dark and dark. Fortunately, they brought candles, so they closed the door and lit the candles.

It's not a good idea to cook now, Zhao Yinger looked at the three people in the house and said: "Why don't we make do with something to eat, this room is airtight, if we burn firewood here, I'm afraid the smoke will be very big, and here is a temple , let’s go out and cook when the rain is lighter.”

Chu Yun said that what she said was very reasonable, but he was determined not to eat cold buns, and he began to lose his temper. It was okay to let him eat cold buns, but the premise was that she would feed him.

Although he didn't say it out, he had already expressed it with his actions. It was a pity that Zhao Yinger didn't understand his thoughts, but felt that he was too hypocritical, spoiled and spoiled since childhood, and couldn't bear a little bit of suffering.

Zhao Yinger distributed the buns to A-Lian and Li Qi, and they were not as hypocritical as Chu Yun, and they started to eat after taking them.

And roast chicken.

She took out the roasted chicken again, cut the chicken into small pieces with a knife, sprinkled some cumin and chili noodles, and called them over to eat.

Li Qi took a chicken leg and handed it to Chu Yun, but Chu Yun refused, "Eat it, I'm not hungry."

Zhao Ying'er looked at him with a smile, thinking that he was really not hungry, otherwise why would he be so particular about it.

The three of them quickly finished eating a roast chicken, with oil on their mouths and hands, and even the buns were eaten up by them, but Chu Yun kept watching them eat with gusto, and he could only endure the hunger Rumbling stomach, swallowing saliva.

After eating, the heavy rain outside hadn't stopped, and it was raining heavily. It seemed that we couldn't leave today.

Li Qi found a corner, took a mattress, spread it on the ground, and then spread a quilt on it, and said respectfully after spreading it: "My lord, if you feel tired, just lie on it and rest for a while." .”

Chu Yun was in a displeased mood, he just nodded, he was already hungry, how could he be in the mood to sleep.

And he just saw that they ate up all the roast chicken and steamed buns, so what should he eat.

"Li Qi, light the fire. It's a bit chilly in the room. Lighting the fire can drive away the chill."

Li Qi did as he did, got a few twigs, piled them together, and lit the fire with a fire pocket.

The fire was lit, but there was no food, Chu Yun asked, "Li Qi, what do you have to eat?"

Li Qi shook his head: "My lord, we didn't bring anything out."

"Oh, I see."

It seems that it is not convenient to have a meal outside, Chu Yun sighed, and planned to stay up until night.

Zhao Ying'er waited in the temple for another three or four hours, during which she also fell asleep, but she always couldn't sleep well, and woke up whenever there was a sound.

The sky outside was getting darker and darker, and the rain hadn't stopped at all. They stayed here until it got dark, but they still didn't wait for the rain to stop.

Chu Yun also became impatient. He didn't eat in the morning and noon, so it seemed that he could only wait for the rain to stop.

In the evening, when the rain finally stopped, they packed up and walked out.

Since it had just rained, the ground was very wet and soft, and when one stepped on it, one's feet were covered with mud.

Chu Yun asked how far it was to the nearest inn, and Li Qi replied that it would take more than an hour to walk.

He looked at the sky that was not yet completely dark: "Then hurry up and find an inn for the night."

"it is good."

Li Qi led the horse out, and after Chu Yun and the others got into the carriage, they drove the carriage away.

Since it had just rained, there were many points on the road surface, and the horseshoes stepped on the puddles and splashed water.

It has just rained, the air is fine, and the leaves are covered with water droplets.

The sky outside was getting darker and darker, and the horses kept running, and when they came to a somewhat dilapidated inn, it was completely dark.

They got out of the carriage and found that the inn was open at the entrance of the village. Since there were usually few people there, no one was guarding it.

Chu Yun walked in and yelled a few times before someone ran over. Seeing the well-dressed Chu Yun in front of him, he knew that a distinguished guest had come to the inn today.

He greeted them warmly and invited them to the room.

The room is not big. Due to the small number of people, there is no quilt on the bed, only one bed.

"Guest officer sit down and rest first, I'll go and bring the quilt here, we don't have many owners here, the quilt will collect dust when placed on the bed, so I put the quilt in the box and take it out when there are guests. "

"Is there any food? Let's cook some dishes and serve them up. We've been on our way and haven't eaten yet."

"Yes, yes, wait a moment."

The shop owner walked out, brought tea over after a while, poured a few cups of tea for them to drink, then went out again, and asked his wife to cook.

Since it is an ordinary family, there are not many guests here, so I didn't prepare any meat dishes, only some vegetables and eggs, so I made a plate of scrambled eggs with vegetables, and took a few steamed buns and a plate of pickles.

Seeing such a simple meal, Chu Yun felt that the food was not good, but this is not a palace after all, and there is no big fish and meat, so he had to eat it.

He had never eaten such a vegetarian dish before, but when he ate it today, it tasted pretty good, whether it was scrambled eggs or pickles, it was delicious.

It's like a person who is used to eating fish asks him to eat vegetarian dishes, and he also finds it delicious.

After dinner, the innkeeper made the bed for them, and they lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Until the next day, the weather on the second day was not bad, the wind was sunny, without the heavy rain of last night.

After they had eaten, they went out to the carriage, gave the innkeeper a piece of silver, and set the horses at a gallop.

The horse ran fast at first, and after running for a while, let it slow down again, which can be regarded as a rest.

The scenery outside is pretty good, not to mention the magnificent mountains and green trees, and there are many small flowers on the roadside.

Around noon, they found a flat place and prepared to come down to cook.

The sun is harsh today, perfect for getting wet.

Li Qi first dug a small hole in the ground, and then put the pot on it, so that firewood can be filled in it.

When he had done this, he went out again to find dry branches to prepare for cooking.

In fact, they didn't cook anything, at most they would heat up a hot pot, warm up steamed buns and cold dishes.

Zhao Ying'er then asked: "My lord, why didn't you bring more steamed buns when we came, now we don't have any steamed buns, so we can only reheat the cold dishes we bought yesterday."

Chu Yun was also a little surprised. He didn't want to eat leftovers. As for the reason, the answer must be a little bit heart-wrenching, because he had never eaten leftovers at all, and he couldn't eat them even if he wanted to. His strength would not allow it.

Zhao Ying'er looked at the real food, except for a few hard steamed buns, there were no other dishes.

Just when she was wondering what Li Qi was going to cook for Chu Yun, she saw that he took out dried beef from a bag, which seemed to be stir-fried beef.

Zhao Ying'er swallowed, and the moment she smelled the smell of meat, the dry food in her hand immediately became stale.

Fortunately, Chu Yun is very generous: "If the concubine wants to eat, come and eat, so as not to be starved and thin during the journey."

"What the prince said is that only when you are full can you lose weight."

Zhao Ying'er leaned over and saw that the pot was heated up, oil was poured into the pot, ginger, onion and chili were put into the pot, the pot was heated up, and then the beef was put into the pot to fry.

Obviously, the cooked food is very unique, regardless of the color or the shape of the ingredients, just looking at it can make people want to eat it again.

Chu Yun also saw Li Qi's cooking skills, and he lamented that he should really find someone who can cook instead of letting Li Qi with a knife do the cooking.

The food is stir-fried casually, because the fire is a little big, and the meat is burnt, which makes people laugh and cry. When you smell it closely, there is some burnt smell in the meat.
