The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 73
Jing Li continued to wipe her hair: "Oh!"

This is the trouble in ancient times. There are no towels or hair dryers, and her hair is still very long. Jing Li is thinking about it, why not find a chance to cut her hair shorter?
Huo Shen's expression froze: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Jing Li stopped and said, "Then I wish you a bright future?"

By the way, Huo Shen doesn't know if he still has any family members. If he does, they must be in Chang'an City. They are all here and it seems like they have to go on a long journey. It's him who still has to walk for two days.

Huo Shen was a little angry. What did she mean? She obviously meant something and was afraid that her girl would be thin-skinned, so he took the initiative to hand her the steps. Why was she so indifferent?

"Don't you have anything else to say?" Huo Shen continued to ask without giving up.

Jing Li's hand wiping her hair paused: "Take care of yourself and come to our place later when you have time. Forget it, I don't even know where we will end up. When we settle down, we will come to the city to find you!"

Huo Shen walked away, feeling very unhappy.

Jingli was confused and turned around and almost bumped into Haitang who came to look for her: "You and your brother are leaving tomorrow and I have nothing to give you. If there is a chance in the future, we will get together again."

To be honest, although Haitang once ended up in a brothel, along the way, Jingli really felt that this girl was good, she was not pretentious, she was able to endure hardships, and she was also very kind to others, even a mean woman like Xiao Cuiniang. He can also treat each other with courtesy, which shows that he is a well-educated person.

Haitang was a little embarrassed: "I won't leave, I want to stay with the girl."

"What?" Jing Li was puzzled: "You and Mr. Huo are the only two people in your family. Shouldn't the siblings support each other to rebuild the family business?"

Haitang sighed: "No one else knows about my past, but the girl knows it, and he is ambitious. How can I let him be criticized? He has a sister like me. Wouldn't that embarrass him?"

"Besides, I can't do anything else, but I know how to do some tricks, and I won't cause trouble to others. If I go to work in the fields, I can endure hardships."

Jingli looked troubled: "But you know, even now, we don't know where the patrol officer wants to arrange us."

"Ordinarily, this matter would have been arranged somewhere in Chang'an City, but we got in through that person, so we didn't dare to ask him why, for fear of leaking the truth. You're following us and you don't know what to eat. What a pain."

Tears flashed in Haitang's eyes: "On this journey, I feel like a human being. I don't have to be humble and look at people's faces, and I don't have to be groveling to greet people. I really like being an upright person like this."

"If the girl refuses, I'm afraid I'll have to go back to living my life based on people's faces."

Jing Li shook her hair: "If you want to be together, let's do it. We've been together for such a long time, and I like you quite a lot. But don't call me girl again in the future. It's going to get very annoying. Just call me Ah Li." .”

Haitang hesitated for a moment, then laughed happily: "Okay, I will listen to sister A Li."

Mrs. Su came out of the backyard and said, "Ah Li, you and Haitang should go back to the house and sleep quickly. It's late at night and we have to go on the road tomorrow!"

Jing Lijuan replied to the Su family: "Mom, you go to bed first, I'll be right over."

The two of them went to the guest room, turned the corner and bumped into Wan Baoquan: "Brother Quanzi, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Wanbaoquan glanced at Haitang secretly: "I just chopped firewood and was sweating all over. I was about to wash up, but I didn't expect to meet you."

Haitang nodded slightly towards him and entered the room with Jing Li, leaving Wan Baoquan full of thoughts.The girls inside have all fallen asleep. One by one, they are sleeping deeply. They are too tired. They haven't slept so solidly on the bed for a long time.

Before dawn, Xiao Cui Niang planned to come over and ask Xiao Cui to get up and cook. Mrs. Ge quickly rushed out to stop her: "Stop, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Cuiniang didn't dare to offend Mrs. Ge: "Auntie, it's already dawn. Let Xiao Cui get up and help."

Mrs. Ge raised her eyelids and said: "There are so many girls who haven't even called me. You are the only one who has to ask for help. Isn't it just to cook? There are so many people helping, and the father of the children also chopped a lot of firewood. How about ten of you?" Can’t make a meal?”

Xiao Cuiniang still wanted to defend herself, but Mrs. Ge waved her hand: "Go and do your work. Ah Li was busy for a long time before she went to bed yesterday. You are not allowed to ask anyone to disturb her sleep."

Widow Qin also came over with a serious face: "Xiao Cui Niang, we just have to finish the work. What do you ask the children to do? Don't disturb the captain's sleep."

Little Cuiniang felt aggrieved. Who could sleep until dawn and not work? Besides, Jingli kept washing last night. People only need to wash one bucket of water. She washed several buckets by herself. What else would happen? To be able to sleep so late.

She didn't care about sleeping. She let a room full of girls sleep with her. Where could she reason with her?
Even if no one called, the girls got up quietly. When Jingli woke up, everyone's luggage was packed, the animals were fed, and they were waiting for her to set off.

Jing Li felt a little embarrassed and complained to her mother: "Aniang, why don't you call me?"

The fat aunt came over with the food: "We are not allowed to bark, so you can have a good rest."

Mr. Jing smashed the empty cigarette pouch and smiled with a smile on his face: "Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry. I asked the adult, it should be here in two days."

Jingli almost choked. It would take two days to arrive. What the hell was he assigned to? It was so far away.

Just after finishing the meal, the patrol officer came over and urged: "I have never seen people running away like you. You are not in a hurry to get to the place, and you have to eat and drink before leaving. It's like you are out to play."

Mr. Jing smiled apologetically: "My lord, please forgive me. The kids are too tired, so they will sleep a little longer. They will not delay your schedule any more."

The patrol officer wanted to say something else, but someone called him: "But Li Patrol?"

Li Xunyin turned around with a puzzled look on his face: "Who are you?"

The person who came was wearing a brocade blue robe with dark silver patterns on the clothes, which showed that his identity was unusual.

The man stepped forward and faced Li Xunyin: "Sir, please take a step to speak!"

The two of them didn't know what they said when they got inside. It took a long time before they came out. After Li Xunyin sent the man away respectfully, Jing Li felt that his attitude had changed.

If he was polite at first, he is now a bit condescending. Could it be that the people here are here to target his group?

Jingli had various conjectures in her mind. The people in Jingjia Village all came from Qingzhou. Although they borrowed the name of King Changling when they entered the customs, neither the commander nor the city guard would tell anyone. , then, who else will target them?
Dalang came over and interrupted her: "Sister, Mr. Huo is missing!"
