The prince is very fierce

Chapter 7 Heading North

After leaving the building boat, Xu Buling drove a carriage and took Xiaowan all the way north.

There was light snow in the sky, and the carriage was not moving very fast. It would stop to look at the snow scenery from time to time. When encountering a more authentic old shop, it would get off and have a nice meal, and then start again after having enough rest.

In the past, when Xu Bu Ling went out, he would always go out to do errands. He would hurry and take his time on the road and have no time to take into account the scenery on the road. But this time it was different. Although there was a purpose, the most important thing was to travel with Cui Xiaowan to relax.

A quick trip without having to think about the intrigues between the various forces was actually very pleasant for Xu Buring.

The wind chimes on the pony carriage rang softly. Xu Buring sat in front of the carriage, holding the straight knife in his hand, and continued to tell his self-written version of 'The Legend of Abai'.

The car window was opened slightly, and Cui Xiaowan revealed her clean and clear eyes, scanning the snowy plains.

Although the days on the high-rise boat are very leisurely, Cui Xiaowan still prefers this kind of environment where there are only you and me between the world and the world. I don’t know if it is for this reason. Even the weakness of the body has been relieved a little. She sat up and leaned on the carriage. Feeling tired.

The little sparrow was a little afraid of the cold, so it huddled in Cui Xiaowan's lapel and pecked Cui Xiaowan's chest with its beak from time to time.

Then Cui Xiaowan looked away, grabbed a few pine nuts from the fruit plate nearby, peeled them open and fed them into the little sparrow's mouth, and joked:

"I'm a patient, why do you always ask me to serve you?"

The little sparrow is very spiritual. Although he was forced to travel, he was still very considerate when it was time to take care of the patients. He rubbed his furry head against Cui Xiaowan's clothes and said "chirp, chirp, chirp—" twice, as if to say 'I don't have any hands, you can peel melon seeds for him, what's wrong with peeling two for me? ’.

Cui Xiaowan couldn't understand the bird's language, but she still liked this clingy little guy. After feeding her, she wrapped her and the little sparrow in quilts, and continued to lean on the carriage and listen to Xu Buling's story.

The carriage drove slowly for a while, without even leaving Yueyang's territory, and the sky gradually darkened.

There is no position in this world. Xu Buling knows not only the general direction, but also the details of the roads in various places. Walking along the official road, I saw that I didn't encounter any villages or towns for two or three miles, so I stopped by a small river.

Cui Xiaowan leaned on the small couch, saw the carriage stopped, and turned to look at the river outside:

"Sleep outside tonight?"

"Yeah, there doesn't seem to be any villages or towns around. The scenery here is pretty good, so let's make do with it for one night."

Xu Buling jumped off the carriage, took off the shovel from the back of the carriage, dug an earthen stove on the ground, and prepared to set up a pot to make a fire for cooking.

Cui Xiaowan looked at the deserted place and then at the small carriage. She blinked but didn't say anything. She lifted up the quilt and put on the fox fur.

Cui Xiaowan is very weak. If she walks alone, she will feel dizzy after taking a few steps. It will probably take a long time to fully recover. She walked out of the carriage, wrapped in a thick red fox fur and a felt hat, with only one cheek exposed. The little sparrow didn't want to fly by itself and huddled in its furry collar.

Xu Buling was digging the earth stove. When he saw Cui Xiaowan getting up, he quickly put down the shovel:

"Why are you out? It's cold outside. Go inside and lie down."

Cui Xiaowan shook her head and sat down outside the carriage:

"Just go about your business. I'm afraid it's suffocated, so I'll take it out for some air."

While talking, Cui Xiaowan picked up the little sparrow huddled in her collar and threw it into the sky.

bird:? ? ?

Yiyi turned several times in the air and quickly flapped her wings to stabilize her body. She wanted to get back into Cui Xiaowan's collar to keep warm. However, she was thrown up again. She was so angry that she hovered in the air, chirping, obviously saying, " If I don't hold it back, how can I breathe in the winter?

Xu Bu Ling secretly laughed in his heart. The little sparrow wouldn't be able to fly any longer if it gained weight. It would be good to exercise more. He didn't stop him at the moment and continued cooking in the pot.

There were ingredients on the carriage, and Xu Buling caught a big fish from the river. He killed and scaled the fish neatly, and then put it into a pot to make fish soup. In about half an hour, dinner was cooked.

Xu Buling took out the small case from the carriage and placed it outside the carriage. He took two wooden bowls with fish soup and placed them on the small case. Then he sat on the other side of the small case.

Cui Xiaowan had been watching. She was too weak to help. She was a little embarrassed. She held up the small wooden bowl and said:

"Thanks for your hard work."

"What's here, try how it tastes."

Xu Buring chuckled and picked up the wooden bowl.

The light snow fell silently. The two people sat side by side in front of the carriage, with their legs dangling in the air, looking at the boundless snowfield. The scene was not spectacular, but romantic enough.

Cui Xiaowan looked at the fish soup in her hand and suddenly remembered the scene when she met Xu Buling for the first time at this time last year.

It was also winter, and the mountains were covered with snow outside. The two of them sat in the small kitchen and ate together with only two bowls of fish soup. They sat there all night long.

Although the surrounding scene has changed, the bowl in his hand is still the same bowl that Xu Buling carved with his own hands, and they are two people.

Cui Xiaowan turned her head and looked at Xu Buling, smiled, put the wooden bowl in front of her, took a sip, and then...

Cui Xiaowan's expression froze and her brows furrowed.

Xu Buling was drinking hot soup when he saw Cui Xiaowan's strange expression and said doubtfully:

"What's wrong? It's too hot?"

"no……"

Cui Xiaowan swallowed the fish soup with difficulty, lowered her head and looked at it carefully, then whispered:

"It's not hot, um... I like everything you cook. But as a man, a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, so it's natural that he is not good at cooking, and it's normal that the taste is average."

After saying that, perhaps because she was afraid that Xu Buling would be sad, Cui Xiaowan took another big sip from the wooden bowl.

Tons, tons, tons...

"..."

Xu Buling's expression froze. His cooking skills could move Aunt Lu to tears, so it must not be good. But he was very serious just now, and it seemed that there was no big problem when he tasted it himself. I didn't expect it to be so bad.

Thousands of miles away in Northern Qi, you can still find a restaurant in Dayue. If you don't cook on the grassland, you can only eat dry food. What should you do then?

Xu Buling looked down at the fish soup, a little embarrassed:

"It's not far, why don't we go back now and take the nightingale with us?"

Cui Xiaowan smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll teach you later, you can learn if you don't know."

Xu Buling thought about it and said no more, picked up the wooden bowl and ate heartily.

After the meal, it was completely dark.

Xu Buling cleaned up the dishes and boiled a pot of hot water in an iron pot.

After the two of them took turns to wash up, Cui Xiaowan returned to the carriage, leaned on the small couch, looked at the small carriage, and hesitated.

Although the carriage was not small, there were many things placed inside, and there was only a small couch where two people could lie down, which was a bit crowded for two people to sleep.

After taking a few glances, Cui Xiaowan said:

"Hey, do you want to sleep with me?"

? ?

Xu Buling was feeding the horses outside. He staggered when he heard the noise and tilted his head to look at the carriage:

"Well... I'll be on guard outside, you should go to bed early."

Cui Xiaowan said, unbuttoned her dress, huddled in the quilt, put the little sparrow next to the pillow, covered the quilt, and said again:

"If you feel cold, come in, just don't move around, I don't mind."

It's better to pretend to be a gentleman outside than to go in and not move around. Xu Buling shook his head secretly. After feeding the horses, he leaned outside the carriage, hugged the straight knife, closed his eyes, and whispered:

"Go to sleep, there is still a long way to go."

"Oh."

Cui Xiaowan stared at the back of the car door. After confirming that Xu Buling would not come in, she might be weak, tired, and gradually closed her eyes...
