Chapter 46
"Then why are you willing to let me stay at your house?"

"I actually married into this village from outside, but my husband died in an accident two years after I got married, and the villagers believed even more that foreigners would bring bad luck."

Liu Xiaodong nodded, no wonder everyone who saw the old woman just shunned her, "Thank you, mother-in-law." She didn't believe this kind of nonsense. People naturally have their own destiny, how could they have anything to do with outsiders.

Liu Xiaodong stayed here for one night, and was about to leave the next day. The old woman sent her to the door, watched her leave, and entered the house herself.

This was a small episode, Liu Xiaodong continued on his way after leaving the village.

Liu Xiaodong walked for three days before crossing the mountain. When he arrived at the town behind the mountain, Liu Xiaodong was so tired that he was out of shape. Even Xiang Qin lost a lot of weight, let alone Liu Xiaodong.

Liu Xiaodong asked someone to inquire about it, and he said that it would take about ten days to travel from here to Tongcheng by car, and at least 20 days if he walked by himself. When Liu Xiaodong heard this, he finally rented a car because it was too expensive to rent a carriage. Sorry, I ended up renting a donkey cart.

From this town to Tongcheng, she was charged five taels of silver. In addition, she had to take care of the driver's food and accommodation, otherwise no one would want to travel such a long distance.

Although it was a bit expensive, Liu Xiaodong gritted his teeth and rented the car.

After renting a car and buying some dry food to take on the road, Liu Xiaodong specially remembered to buy a few firecrackers this time, and finally bought a small dagger for self-defense, and then embarked on the road to the Northwest en route.

With a donkey cart, it was much more convenient and brisk. The driver Liu Xiaodong found was a middle-aged man named Hu, so Liu Xiaodong called him Uncle Hu.Through the past few days of getting along, Liu Xiaodong knew that Uncle Hu lost his wife in his early years and had no children. He never remarried after that, and lived alone until now.

Uncle Hu looked up at the sky, "I'm afraid it's going to rain today."

"Yeah, the day is so cloudy, it looks like there is a heavy rain." Liu Xiaodong replied, "Hey, Uncle Hu, see if there is a ruined temple in front, let's go in and have a rest first."

"okay."

As soon as the two entered the ruined temple, they heard a loud noise in the sky, and then fish as big as soybeans poured down.Liu Xiaodong couldn't help saying "lucky" to himself.

Liu Xiaodong took out the fire book and lit the withered grass and branches inside the ruined temple, and the temple became warmer, "Uncle Hu, how many days are we left before we arrive in Tongcheng?"

"According to this speed, it will take seven or eight days."

Liu Xiaodong felt that this time was about the same as he expected, but he heard Uncle Hu continue, "But the road will be difficult to walk after it rains. I guess it will take ten days."

Although Liu Xiaodong was anxious, she also knew that the weather was not good, and there was nothing she could do about it.

In order to prevent Liu Xiaodong from discovering him, Xiang Qin had to wait for Liu Xiaodong to enter the ruined temple before thinking of a solution. Xiang Qin, who was almost soaked, approached the ruined temple and found that there was a back door to the temple, so Xiang Qin entered through the back door. To the ruined temple.

He didn't dare to start a fire, so he could only use his internal energy to slowly dry his clothes. Although Liu Xiaodong didn't notice him, his physical strength also slowly lost. He had been living with Liu Xiaodong for more than ten days, and now he used his internal energy again. I feel very tired.

Xiang Qin looked at the heavy rain that was still falling outside the temple, thinking that Liu Xiaodong would not be able to leave for a while, so he planned to rest here to recover his strength.

Liu Xiaodong took out the steamed buns in the bundle, found another wooden stick and went to the gate of the temple to wash it in the rain, and put the steamed buns on it to bake.

Uncle Hu took down a pot from the donkey cart, grabbed a handful of dried vegetables, put them into the pot, added water to the pot, and set it on the fire to cook the soup.

Although the taste of this soup was not the same as when we were at home, it was already considered delicious for Liu Xiaodong now. Liu Xiaodong didn't care about the heat, so he took a sip as soon as he got out of the car.

Uncle Hu took a bowl and drank slowly.

After eating, the rain was still falling and showed no sign of stopping, so Liu Xiaodong simply spread a layer of clothes on the ground, lay down and closed his eyes.

She couldn't fall asleep either, and her mind started to think wildly again, and she didn't know what happened to Xiang Qin and Tian's now?Will Xiang Qin really marry another person?And Mrs. Tian, ​​first her own daughter died, and her soul took over the body of the original owner. Now, Mrs. Tian can't even see this skin, so she must be very sad.

Thinking about it, Liu Xiaodong thought of the day when she and Xiang Qin got married, and the embarrassing look of the two of them when she came to Kuishui for the first time, and the anxious look of Xiang Qin when he was injured...

It was only at this time that Liu Xiaodong realized that there were so many memories between her and Xiang Qin.

Xiang Qin woke up in the middle of the night, and quietly turned to the front to take a look at Liu Xiaodong who was already asleep, feeling more at ease in his heart.Gently covering her with the slipped clothes, Liu Xiaodong turned over, Xiang Qin was afraid that she would wake up, so he quietly went back to the back door of the temple.

Xiang Qin couldn't sleep anymore, but he had nothing to do, so he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest his mind, but he was thinking about problems. He was wondering how many things he didn't know about Liu Xiaodong. When talking about herbal medicine, I said that I saw it in a medical book in Liu's father's room.

However, when chatting with Liu's father by chance, Liu's father said that although he likes to read books, he has never read medical books. Firstly, he finds them boring, and secondly, people who don't understand these books can't understand them. So what is Liu Xiaodong doing? What about herbs?

And her way of dealing with people and doing business is so good that no one can find any faults. How did she do it?

Xiang Qin couldn't figure out what happened after that.It would be a bit too far-fetched to follow what Liu Xiaodong said because he hit his head.

Liu Xiaodong didn't know when he fell asleep. When he woke up, he found that the sky had already dawned, and the rain had stopped. Because it had just rained, the air smelled of damp soil, and the sunlight came from the temple. Broken doors and windows shine in, showing today's fine weather.

Uncle Hu also woke up, and the two said "morning" to each other, and Liu Xiaodong was ready to light a fire and cook, so he could continue on his way after eating.

The Huozhezi was also damp due to the rain, and it took three lightings to finally light up the fire. The meal was still the same as last night, with a baked bun for each person and a bowl of vegetable soup.
