Chapter 287
When Shengqi saw the two of them coming back and Tang Xiang'er had changed her clothes, his eyes widened in shock, then he was filled with admiration!
Guan Ning knew at a glance that he had misunderstood and glared at him.
"Get on your horses and go."
"We can't go in a straight line anymore. Let's go around Lu County and go to Zizhou."
"what?"
"Sir, this way the journey will be much longer, at least five more days. We left in a hurry last night and didn't bring much food."
"Just hunt on the road. It's safer to go around."
As he spoke, Guan Ning pulled Tang Xiang'er onto the horse and sat her in his arms.
She only knew how to wash clothes, cook, embroider, etc., and she didn't know how to ride a horse at all. So since last night, she had been riding on the same horse with Guan Ning, which made their relationship continue to heat up.
At first, she felt embarrassed, but now, she has gradually adapted to it and started to have some deep-seated sense of dependence.
"Ok."
"drive!"
"drive!!"
Three people and two horses galloped across the field full of lush grass and flying birds, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
However, what Guan Ning didn't know was that a bigger crisis was quietly approaching, and even if he carefully avoided it, he still couldn't escape it.
……
Five days later.
We have arrived in Lu County.
The streets are bustling with traffic and are much larger and more prosperous than Heishui County.
All kinds of vendors were hawking their wares, selling strange and bizarre things. The colorful world made Tang Xianger exclaim in amazement. She kept looking around, her eyes shining with curiosity.
Under the bamboo hat, Guan Ning smiled and asked, "Is this your first time going out?"
Veiled Tang Xiang'er turned around and nodded repeatedly, her eyes gleaming with surprise. "Brother Ning, I've been in Heishui County since I was born and have never left. I usually have a lot of housework to do, and I rarely leave the house."
"The only time I get a chance to go out is when my wife asks me to go out and do some shopping or run errands."
"It turns out it's so lively outside. There are much more people here than in Heishui County."
Hearing this, Guan Ning couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Okay, then I'll go shopping with you today, buy some things you like, then have a nice meal, and then find a place to shower and change clothes. We'll set off early tomorrow morning."
He felt a pity for his sister. Tang Xiang'er was really pitiful.
As a motherless child, no one loved her. She was bullied by the eldest wife in the mansion for many years, and no one spoke up for her. I couldn't imagine how she got through all these years.
"really?"
"Brother Ning, you don't have to take care of me. I will just follow you wherever you want to do." Tang Xiang'er said sensibly.
The two of them rode on the same horse, attracting a lot of attention.
The man is chivalrous and upright, the woman is pure and otherworldly, and they ride on a white horse together, as if they are a match made in heaven.
"It's okay. We go to the city to buy things anyway." Guan Ning smiled.
"Okay then, thank you, Brother Ning." Tang Xiang'er's voice was pleasant and sweet.
"Hahaha, no thanks." Guan Ning laughed.
At this time, Tang Xiang'er moved slightly on the horse's back, as if she was not sitting comfortably.
"What's wrong?" Guan Ning asked.
"No, Brother Ning, I just feel something pressing against my back and it makes me uncomfortable. Maybe it's the saddle." Tang Xiang'er and Guan Ning are becoming more familiar with each other and are no longer shy.
Upon hearing this, Guan Ning's old face instantly turned red.
Did she feel it?
He really didn't mean it. He had been on the run from the capital for almost a month. He was not interested in women when his blood was boiling. Moreover, such a graceful young girl was riding on the same horse with him, and the friction would inevitably lead to some physiological reactions.
"Cough cough..."
"It should be my belt. I'll sit back a little."
"No, that's not necessary, Brother Ning. It's okay. I know Brother Ning is not a bad person. If you sit any further back, you'll be sitting on the horse's butt."
After saying this, Tang Xiang'er's face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed. Although she knew that riding like this was inappropriate, she liked this feeling.
"what?"
"Okay, okay." Guan Ning was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and secretly moved his hand to another position.
How could this little girl Tang Xiang'er know all this? If she knew, she would be so scared that she would jump off her horse with her face as red as blood.
The three of them strolled around Lujun City for a long time as if they were sightseeing, and bought two clean and beautiful dresses and three boxes of rouge for Tang Xianger.
