"Mrs Gui, go and invite the third wife to come over." The old lady Ren ordered to Mother Gui.

Ren Yaoqi's brows couldn't help but frowned, but Xiao Jinglin, who was sitting on the head, said: "No, I have seen my third wife last time. Today I came to Ren Yaoqi."

The old lady Ren gave up and asked Xiao Jinglin with a smile: "Did the princess see Qi'er last time at the Bailong Temple?"

Xiao Jinglin glanced at Ren Yaoqi and nodded.

"No wonder it's so congenial." The old lady Ren nodded with a smile.

Xiao Jinglin put down the tea bowl in her hand and stood up and said, "I want to invite Ren Yaoqi to go out. I'm still the first to come back in Baihe Town. I want her to take me out."

Xiao Jinglin said that she was going to go out for a stroll, and she said it was very normal, as if it were a normal thing for her. In fact, although Yanbei didn't want the strict ethics in the south of the Yangtze River, it was not for some major festivals to enjoy the people, and the family ladies rarely went out to hang out, after all, their identities were there.

At that time, people believed that only by raising a deep boudoir can a gentle and courteous lady be cultivated, and no lady is trained in the market. At this point, the folk customs cannot be changed no matter how open it is.

However, the old lady Ren agreed without even thinking about it, and said with a smile: "It's better to let Yaohua and Yaoyin also go with the princess. There will be more crowds."

The fifth wife, Lin hurriedly pushed her daughter forward and said, "Yes, yes, and we, Yuer, also go with us."

Xiao Jinglin glanced at the other ladies of Ren's family, and refused quietly: "No, I don't like Ren Duo, Ren Yaoqi is fine."

Ren Jia can get involved with the Yanbei Prince's Mansion, and the old lady Ren can't wait for Xiao Jinglin to mingle with her several granddaughters. This will help the Ren family's girls increase their worth. Therefore, Xiao Jinglin's refusal disappointed the old lady Ren, but she was not easy to force her, and only repeatedly told Ren Yaoqi to take good care of the princess and do her best as a landlord.

Although Xiao Jinglin invited Ren Yaoqi, she has no decision. Even if she didn't want to go, she would be forced to go by the Ren family in the end and stayed with the Ren family for two lifetimes. Ren Yaoqi had a very thorough understanding of this. Fortunately, she is not a **** person, and she just smiled at it.

The various expressions of everyone in the Ren family Ren Yaoqi all had a glimpse, bowed his head obediently and followed Xiao Jinglin out of the Ronghua Academy.

I don't know if it was Ren Yaoqi's illusion, Xiao Jinglin seemed to let out a long breath after coming out. Although Xiao Jinglin's face was calm, Ren Yaoqi, who was standing very close to her, still felt it.

Presumably some are not used to dealing with these inner house women, right? Ren Yaoqi remembered that Xiao Jinglin lived in a border town all year round and rarely returned to the Yanbei Palace.

"How could the princess come to Baihe Town today?" Ren Yaoqi tried to break the silence.

In fact, she and Xiao Jinglin don't even know each other, and there are not ten words that they have said. And Xiao Jinglin is obviously not a self-acquaintance, so when we get along alone at the moment, the atmosphere is a bit stiff for granted.

"Well, let's take a look." Xiao Jinglin's answer was very brief, obviously not keen on communicating with Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi didn't ask her anymore.

The two went along silently as they did when they first met, but this time Ren Yaoqi was not dragged by Xiao Jinglin. But the strange thing is that this kind of silence seems to be more suitable for Xiao Jinglin, and the atmosphere is no longer so rigid.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiao Jinglin, a rare look that brought some curiosity, and she suddenly had a feeling. Compared to the life of a cluster of slaves in a wealthy compound, this girl seems more suitable for being alone.

The Ren family indicated that they would prepare a carriage for the two, but Xiao Jinglin refused. She also came by carriage today. It's just that Xiao Jinglin still didn't take the maidservant, Ren Yaoqi was still not used to having no one to follow, she brought two maidservants and two maidservants.

After leaving the second door, Ren Yaoqi found out that the person driving Xiao Jinglin today was Dongsheng when he arrived in front of Xiao Jinglin's carriage. Ren Yaoqi understood after a little accident. Since she and Xiao Jinglin have no personal friendship, Xiao Jinglin should have been entrusted by Xiao Jingxi to come to her.

However, Ren Yaoqi did not see Ren Yaoqi in the carriage, and Xiao Jinglin was only herself and Ren Yaoqi in the carriage. The maid-in-law that Ren Yaoqi brought out finally asked the Ren family to send another carriage out. Xiao Jinglin didn't find it bothersome.

The carriage finally drove out of the town, and it was Xishan not far from Baihe Town.

Because there are a lot of coal mines and coal kilns on Xishan, there are also some large and small porcelain kiln workshops nearby. The mountain roads near Xishan are leveled by vehicles moving goods coming and going, so the mountain roads are very spacious and flat, and the carriages are like driving all the way. On the flat ground.

However, due to the many coal mines and coal mines nearby, the roads here are all black without exception, and all three feet of digging ground are also black. This is the result of coal carts driving here for many years.

At this moment, a long line of coal-pulling convoy came oncoming, and crisp bells could be heard as they proceeded. Xiao Jinglin was raising the curtain of the car to look out, and when she saw the team, she said, "Is it a camel?"

Ren Yaoqi turned his head and glanced, and recognized the Ren's sign in the team. The steward of the Ren family brought a few miners and drove dozens of dromedaries to the local area.

"Well, most of the roads here are mountain roads. Before the coal kiln was built, there were many lime kilns in this area. Because horse-drawn carriages were not easy to walk on the mountain roads, camel carts were used. After the coal kiln was built, camels were used to transport coal. This mountain road has become more stable because of more cars. So Ren’s coal mine now has horse-drawn carts and camel carts. However, camels are more important than horses, and they are not as expensive as horses, so coal mines are transported. For coal, I still like to use camels."

Xiao Jinglin nodded: "I have ridden a camel, but it is the kind with two humps." After a pause, "The camel saved my life."

Ran Yaoqi was a little surprised by Xiao Jinglin's sudden sentence. Is Xiao Jinglin talking about what happened when she was at the frontier?

However, Xiao Jinglin didn't speak any more after only saying this, she just watched quietly as the group of camels passed in front of them, bringing up a piece of dust. Ren Yaoqi blinked, and the grains of sand entered her eyes, which hurt. She took out her handkerchief and wiped it off. She simply closed her eyes and waited for the team to pass by. Xiao Jinglin didn't pull the car curtain, so she couldn't say anything.

Xiao Jinglin herself reacted to Ren Yaoqi's discomfort, put down the curtain in her hand, and isolated the flying dust outside the car.

Ren Yaoqi only opened his eyes and smiled apologetically.

Xiao Jinglin watched Ren Yaoqi put away the veil in her hand, and then said: "You can't stand this dust?" She didn't mean to despise it, but with some curiosity.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiao Jingxi and said half-truth, "Well, the princess is not afraid because the princess's eyelashes are thicker than mine."

Xiao Jinglin was taken aback, but then she smiled: "This statement is new." Her smile came and went quickly, only a little bit on her face. Ren Yaoqi disappeared before seeing it clearly.

"I'll let Xiao Jingxi come and try." Xiao Jinglin said again.

Ren Yaoqi thought carefully about Xiao Jingxi's eyelashes. They seemed to be thick, and he couldn't help but laughed out: "The princess can't say that I asked the second son of Xiao to try it because I heard this sentence."

"Why?" Xiao Jinglin asked casually.

Why? Ren Yaoqi was speechless, naturally he was afraid that he would ask her to settle the accounts.

After such a conversation, the two finally became familiar with each other, and the atmosphere improved a lot.

"Where is the camel from the princess? Did you bring it back and raise it?" Ren Yaoqi tried to find a topic that Xiao Jinglin liked.

I don't want Xiao Jinglin to hear that but she is a little strange: "I haven't brought it back, I have eaten it."

Ren Yaoqi: "..."

Seeing Ren Yaoqi’s expression, Xiao Jinglin thought for a while and explained: “Generally speaking, soldiers cherish their war horses very much, because war horses are their own legs on the battlefield, and sometimes they are comrades-in-arms. But if it arrives. When food is scarce, war horses will still be killed. On the battlefield,'kill the enemy' and'save your life' are the first to learn."
