Rebirth of Noble Menjiao
Chapter 176 It’s really sweet
On the way back, Mingyi asked suspiciously, "Where are we going?" This was not the way back to the racecourse.
Xue Lin raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Ma'am, if I try to coax you to sell you anywhere, I won't be able to do it."
Mingyi is used to such expressionless jokes, and she can still imitate his expressionless reply, "Really? That's just right! If you sell me, I can still find my own way back, then sell Isn’t your money free? This business without capital is very successful. But I am not as valuable as the governor, so I might as well sell the governor instead and earn more money."
"Madam, there are really no taboos!" Xue Lin curled her lips lightly.
"Both each other!" Mingyi replied with the corner of her mouth twitching.
He really didn’t show any weakness at all! Xue Lin shook his head helplessly, raised his eyes, stretched out his hand and pointed forward, "We're here!"
There was a hillside ahead, and there were fruit trees all over the slope. The ones Mingyi recognized were pear trees and peach trees. Now is the season when fruits are ripe. Looking at the yellow and orange pears hanging on the branches, The peach was pink, and Mingyi was happy, "Did the Governor take me to steal fruits from someone else's orchard?"
"This mountainous land was reclaimed by my people when I was still in Lantai Camp. It was not possible to plant crops, so later it was simply planted with fruit trees. So... this is my own garden. Madam can pick whatever she likes. It's Whether it’s sweet or sour, you’ll know after you taste it.”
"Really?" Mingyi really didn't expect this fruit forest to have such an origin. "Are there any trees planted by the governor here?" Yibi asked, already turning his head to look around.
Xue Lin was silent, "...there really is." When he met Mingyi's bright eyes, he raised his hand and touched his nose, "I'll look for it first!" After that, he really started looking for it. After a while, he He raised his hand and pointed at one of the trees, and said with an expression on his face, "I should have planted this one!"
It was a peach tree. There weren't many peaches on it, but they were quite big and looked juicy.
Mingyi looked around and saw that every tree here looked similar. Governor Xue was still able to find the trees he planted after so many years. His memory was pretty good.
"Try it?" Xue Lin asked.
Mingyi nodded, wouldn't you like to taste the fruits planted by Governor Xue?
Xue Lin looked up, stretched out his hand, picked what looked like the largest and reddest peach from high on the branch, and then reached out towards her.
Mingyi looked at him puzzled.
He smiled helplessly, "Do you want to take the dagger I gave you with you?"
"Oh!" Mingyi reacted and hurriedly took out the thin black dagger from her sleeve and handed it to him.
Xue Lin peeled the peach and handed it to Mingyi. Mingyi held the peach in her hands and took a bite. The sweet taste spread in her mouth. There was a lot of juice and the pulp was delicate. It was actually very good.
"Is it sweet?" Xue Lin asked.
Mingyi's eyebrows turned into crescent moons, she held the peach in her hands and took another bite. She nodded her head vigorously and said vaguely, "Sweet!"
"Really? Let me try it!" Xue Lin said in a deep voice, and then, Mingyi watched him approach suddenly, and then took a bite on the other side of the peach she was holding, tasted it, and clicked He nodded and said, "It's really good, quite sweet!"
Mingyi finally reacted, her ears suddenly became hot, but she stamped her foot and said, "You, you... why do you want to eat mine? There are so many on the tree, won't you pick one yourself?"
"Didn't I ask you if this peach is sweet? If I don't taste your peach, how will I know if it is really sweet? Besides, it's just a mouthful of peach, and Madam is so stingy!" Compared to Mingyi's reaction, Xue Lin still He looked calm and his tone was flat.
"What's wrong with being stingy? You like this peach so much, I'll give it to you!" Mingyi pursed her lips, stuffed the peach she had chewed into Xue Lin's arms, glared at him, and walked away. But the heat at the base of the ears did not subside at all, and instead tended to spread to the lower part of the neck.
Xue Lin looked at her back with dark eyes and the tips of her ears that were so red that they were almost bleeding. A smile flashed in his eyes. He lowered his head and continued to nibble on the peach in his hand without feeling disgusted at all. He murmured softly, "It's really sweet." Ah!" Mingyi didn't talk to Xue Lin for a long time because of her hatred of seizing the peach. When she was about to leave, she didn't hold back and asked Xue Lin, "Can you pick some and give them to Twelve Niang and Sister Su Ho to try? ?”
"Of course, didn't you say that? It's our own orchard. Madam can pick whatever she likes." Xue Lin not only said generous words, but also put his own actions into practice, helping Mingyi pick a lot of peaches and pears, and also He took off his outer clothes and wrapped the fruit.
The dignified Governor Xue actually competed with her for peaches. Mingyi snorted, forget it, for the sake of his generosity, just forgive him!
Mingyi held the heavy bag of fruits in her arms. The little anger she had just had disappeared. She raised her hand and pointed to a tree beside her and said, "What is this?"
"That's a jujube tree! It will take a while to ripen!"
"Where's that one?"
"That's a plum!"
"Where's that one over there?"
"...It should just be a weed!"
When going down the mountain, Xue Lin took the heavy bag of fruits and held it in his arms. With his other hand, he held Mingyi through his sleeve to prevent her from falling when going down the mountain.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them reached the place where the horses were tied down the slope, they heard a sharp whistle.
"What's going on?" Mingyi recognized it. This seemed to be a signal from the Anxi Army.
Xue Lin frowned slightly, "Get on the horse first!" As he said that, he stepped forward and jumped onto the horse.
Mingyi also got on the horse, "Where are we going?"
"Listen to the direction, it's the racecourse!" Xue Lin said in a deep voice. When he finished speaking, he had already grabbed the horse's belly and rushed out first.
Racecourse... Mingyi's heart sank slightly, and she hurriedly rode her horse to keep up.
The two rode back to the racecourse as quickly as possible. When they saw that the guards outside the racecourse were still in good order, they both breathed a sigh of relief, but their doubts became even more intense until they galloped into the racecourse. At the racecourse, they heard a call for "Brother". When they saw Xue Tai walking towards them, the two of them looked at each other and suddenly knew where the whistle came from.
"Artai?" .
Although Mingyi could get off the horse without doing this, she was very grateful for his thoughtfulness and felt calmly. She held his arm and jumped off the horse. When his eyes fell on the figure who quietly walked out from behind Xue Tai, he paused slightly, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"A-Lin!" Although she was wearing a dark riding uniform, her beauty could not be concealed. She turned out to be the Xiange girl from Fallen Immortal Tower.
When she met the Xiange girl that day, she rejected her overtures. Mingyi thought that the rumor between her and Xue Lin was just a deliberate rumor. After all this time, she had already forgotten about this person.
Unexpectedly, she unexpectedly appeared here and there again, and she opened her mouth and shouted - A Lin?
Mingyi frowned slightly and raised her eyes to look at Xue Lin beside her.
Xue Lin also frowned, obviously surprised that these two people would appear here, but the next moment, his expression suddenly turned cold, and his voice also dropped, "What happened?"
Obviously, he expected that these two people would not appear here unless something serious happened.
Xue Tai and Xian Ge looked at each other, and Xian Ge sighed softly, "Alin, this is the news from Beidi."
