Chapter 16 Where to Go
The rising sun slowly rose from the horizon, and the red rays covered the earth, and the entire silver-covered world seemed to be covered with a thin layer of red gauze.
Li Ming woke up from his sleep, turned his head and looked at Yao'er and Xiao Cui who were still asleep on the other side.
The warmth in the car made Yao'er's face flush when she was sleeping, and her pink face showed a slight smile. The blanket on her body had been kicked under him, and her body with only her small clothes looked so delicate and colorful.
Thinking of the expressions of Yaoer and Xiao Cui last night, it was like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden. Everything in front of her was so unfamiliar with them and curious, and she couldn't help but pull him to ask. In the end, she still used the same thing to give the credit for the manufacture of this car to the non-existent master and himself. The two little girls looked at him with "worship" eyes for the middle of the night, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
He gently got out of the bed, walked to the refrigerator to take out a ham, a few eggs, a few slices of vacuum-packed bread and a bucket of fresh milk to start making breakfast.
The supplies on the car were originally prepared for the seven of their expedition members, including various dehydrated vegetables, meat and eggs, and of course a little fresh meat products, such as ham and so on. He brought them with him first, but he was the only one left to enjoy them now. Seeing the things and thinking about others, Li Ming couldn't help but feel sad.
After a while, a rich ham sandwich breakfast was held in Li Ming's hands. Looking at the sandwich he hadn't eaten for several days, Li Ming couldn't help but breathe a deep breath.
Squatting in front of Yao'er and looking at the delicate face, Li Ming's sadness was gradually replaced by tenderness. Although he had been here for less than ten days, he now had a pretty and charming confidante and a diligent and smart little girl. This was something Li Ming dared not think about before. Thinking about the various experiences here, what he felt like in Li Ming's heart was unknown.
Zhang Yao's long eyelashes suddenly flashed a few times, and her sleepy eyes slowly opened. She looked at Li Mingyan and sat up slowly, gathered her long scattered hair and said embarrassedly: "I'm so sucking, Yao'er is too sleepy." After saying that, her pretty little nose suddenly twitched a few times, and asked in surprise: "What does this smell? Yao'er has never smelled it before." At the same time, her stomach actually started to scream.
Looking at Zhang Yao's embarrassed face, his neck and shin were red, Li Ming couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, are Yao'er hungry? Then get up quickly. I've prepared breakfast."
Yao'er didn't care about being shy, so she raised her head and said hurriedly: "It's Yao'er that's not good. How dare Yao'er asks her to cook? Please forgive Yao'er for this time. Yao'er dares not sleep anymore in the future." After that, she was so anxious that she burst into tears.
Li Ming hurriedly held her delicate shoulders, and her tender and smooth skin made Li Ming feel heart-warming, and he hurriedly said, "Yao'er, don't do this, what's the big deal about making a breakfast for my Yao'er? Don't be so excited."
Yao'er shook her head and said firmly: "Cooking is our women's business. Sir is a real man. How can you cook for women? Please don't make Yao'er uneasy again in the future!"
Li Ming shook his head helplessly and said, "Let's talk about it later. You don't know how to use the things in front of you, so I'll do it for the time being."
Xiao Cui's voice suddenly came from behind: "It is Xiao Cui's sin to ask Mr. to make breakfast, but Miss, you should put on your clothes quickly, otherwise Mr.'s eyes will pop out!"
The warm winter sun slowly hangs on the treetops, and Xiao Cui drives the carriage and slowly moves along the road.
Under Yao'er's insistence, Li Ming was explaining to Yao'er how to use microwave ovens and electric ovens.
Although after Li Ming's explanation in the middle of the night, Zhang Yao still felt very fresh about everything in the car. He kept pestering Li Ming and asked, for example, why can you cook without fire? How can the lights on the car be turned on without oil? Why is it so cold outside? Why is the wind blowing out so warm? Why is it so cold in this small box? Li Ming was dizzy and could only choose some easy-to-understand views that people in this era can accept to explain. If it really doesn't work, it will push it to the head of the non-existent master.
Li Ming, who was dry-mouthed in explanation, took advantage of Zhang Yao's careful study of his shirt and hurriedly changed the subject and asked, "Yaoer, where should we go now?"
Zhang Yao raised her head and said to Li Ming: "Yao'er doesn't know. Yao'er has never gone far away. She doesn't know where to go. She can go wherever she wants. Yao'er listens to her."
Li Ming smiled bitterly. He knew nothing about this era. The place names here were even completely different from those in history. How could he know where to go? It was cold and cold here, which was really not a good place for life. If you could find a place where birds and flowers sing, beautiful mountains and rivers, and use this thousand taels of gold to build a garden-style courtyard in Suzhou. He took Yao'er and Xiao Cui to live carefreely and ignore the world. He would have such an ideal. He had no ambitions and was content with everything, and he did not want to do any big career. Isn't it beautiful to spend the rest of his life like this?
Thinking of this, he told Zhang Yao about his thoughts. After hearing this, Zhang Yao's eyes showed a longing look and said, "Mr. Can you give up your career for Yaoer and be willing to live in seclusion, so that Yaoer can bear it. However, Mr. Yaoer's decision made Yaoer very happy. I really hope that this wish will come true immediately. If Dad is dismissed from office in the future, what a wonderful life it would be."
Li Ming asked strangely: "Isn't your father a grand marshal of the border? How could he be dismissed from office?"
Zhang Yao sighed, "Dad never tells me about his affairs. In fact, my master can see it very clearly. She told me: The emperor is weak and sick, and now there are only three princes and one princess. He has not yet established a crown prince. Therefore, the three princes are fighting openly and secretly, and they are all trying to win over their own power, among which the third prince is the most powerful. My father is honest by nature, and with the provocation of villains, the emperor now has a lot of opinions about his father, but the border is urgent and he dares not do anything to him. Dad wants to marry me to the third prince just to find a backer in the court, but he didn't expect my daughter to be so unfilial." After saying that, his voice gradually lowered.
Li Ming apologized: "It's all my fault. If it weren't for my appearance, your father wouldn't have been so embarrassed now."
Zhang Yao hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth and said softly: "Sir, don't say that. Meeting a husband is the greatest happiness in his life. Yao'er has never regretted it. When Yao'er saw him, she was deeply attracted by him. Her magical medical skills, harmonious smile, and tall figure were deeply imprinted in Yao'er's heart. Besides, you have also entered Yao'er's embroidery room and touched Yao'er's body. At that time, Yao'er decided not to marry her. Since Yao'er has followed her, how could she blame her? In fact, her husband is really different from other men. Her husband is kind to my maid and has no airs, which touched Yao'er very much."
Li Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that in his society, a woman's status is much higher than a man. A woman as beautiful as Yao'er can't keep up with a company's suitor behind him. She is a boy who is not astonishing. It seems that she is really lucky.
Thinking of this, Li Ming said: "We went to the town in front and asked about the road, and then walked south. I think we would definitely find such a place."
A city slowly appeared in everyone's eyes, and everyone who had been walking in the snow field for two days couldn't help but cheer.
After all, this horse can only eat a few slices of bread every day (happy enough, haha), and now it is too hungry to have much energy. No matter how Xiao Cui urges and beats it, it still moves forward so slowly.
With Xiao Cui taking out the waist card of the Bianguan General's Mansion, they successfully entered the city, and behind the huge carriage was still a group of people watching the fun.
The carriage drove into a larger inn. When the child saw this grand carriage, he immediately ran forward, and honouredly lifted the curtain in front of the car, and asked the two of them to get out of the car. Then he drove away the people in the yard watching the fun.
Li Ming and others came to the elegant seat upstairs. There were not many people at this time, but the windows and doors were closed, which made the air feel a very strange smell. They picked a place by the window and sat down.
The waiter ran over attentively and asked, "What do you want to come for this young man, and the lady? The pork stewed with pickled cabbage in our store is a great place to grab the roe deer legs in this city. Do you want to have a try?"
When Li Ming heard this, he became interested. Roe deer is not easy to eat in modern times, and today he can enjoy a lot of food. In the past two days, he ate some dehydrated vegetables and fast food, and the birds faded out of his mouth. So he hurriedly said, "Okay, you have any special side dishes in your store. By the way, you can also have a jar of good wine in your store. In addition, I want to ask you some things later."
The waiter agreed and hurried down. After a while, the table was filled with rich dishes. At the same time, the waiter brought a jar of wine and slapped the mouth in front of Li Ming. Suddenly, a strong aroma of wine came into Li Ming's nose. Li Ming took a deep breath and couldn't help but exclaim: "What a great wine!" The waiter said proudly: "Young master is such a big expert. This is the best sorghum red brewed in our store. It has been in the past for ten years and there is not much. I see that the young master is extraordinary and the lady is even more beautiful, so I specially took a jar from the wine cellar to ask the young master to taste. Since the young master is very satisfied, I will give the young master a hot wine." After that, he held the wine jar and walked downstairs.
Li Ming was drinking the mellow red sorghum and gnawing on the roe deer legs in his hand. Li Ming was very good at wine. In the past, he had basically no friends, so he often poured and drank by himself. After a long time, he became fascinated by this sip. However, when he used to drink white wine, he drank wine, which is to use rice, sorghum and other grains to ferment. As far as Li Ming knew, the distillation method had not been invented in this era, so there was no white wine. However, Li Ming only felt that it was mellow and delicious when drinking this wine, but it had a unique flavor, but the alcohol content was too low, and Li Ming always felt that it was a bit unsatisfied with drinking high-quality liquor.
At this time, the waiter's surprise voice came downstairs: "Master Huang is here! You are not here today, are you all worried about you at the small door? Please come upstairs." A deep voice sounded: "Missing me? I am thinking about my silver reward, haha." With the sound, several people walked upstairs.
