"It's getting late, madam, haven't you eaten yet?" As soon as Xu You left, Xue Lin didn't even glance at his back, and turned to ask Mingyi in a very calm voice. Mingyi turned her head and looked out the window. Sure enough, it was already dark. She was a little surprised, "It's already dark!" They said excitedly, but they didn't notice this at all. Looking up at Xue Lin, she was silent, "Has the Governor used it?" "Never!" Xue Lin said in a deep voice, "I have been busy all this time, but I haven't had a meal with my wife until now. It's my fault." Mingyi was stunned and looked at him blankly. Didn't everyone do their own thing before? It’s okay when he’s not in the house, but isn’t it the same when he’s in the house occasionally? Why did it suddenly change?
Suddenly remembering what Xu You had just said about the trip to Jizhou, Mingyi suddenly realized that since they wanted to pretend to be a loving couple, they were too unfamiliar and needed to hurry up and get acquainted with each other. After thinking about it, Mingyi suddenly became enlightened. She smiled and said to Feng Yu, "Let them prepare the meal. The Governor is dining in the mansion. Let them cook two dishes that the Governor likes with the ingredients." Fengyu was most happy to see the governor and his wife get close to each other. He smiled and said "yes" and walked away briskly. Fan Shuang and the others resigned in a sensible manner, leaving them alone in the room. Mingyi was originally going to ask them to pour tea, but now she is the only one here. He poured a cup of tea himself and served it to Xue Lin. Xue Lin had already sat down opposite her. He said "Thank you, Madam." He reached out to take the tea cup and took a sip. "Madam brought this tea from Wangjing, right? Mingqian tea is as precious as gold. Madam's Mingqian tea." Longjing is already very expensive in Wangjing, but when you get to Beiguan, just one glass of it is probably worth the price of a meal in a restaurant." "My father doesn't have much else, but he never lacks food and drink. If the governor likes it, write back and ask him to send you some." Speaking of letters, the day before yesterday, her letter home announcing her safety was finally Sent out, along with the gifts that Xue Lin asked Xu You to prepare, were a box of furs and a box of medicinal materials. "Then thank you madam first. Here's the tea. I'm a rough person and can't taste it well, but sir, I like it." Xue Lin said solemnly.
"Sir?" Mingyi was stunned for a moment, then remembered, "Oh, is it the Mr. Li you told His Majesty about before?" Xue Lin said "hmm". "Speaking of which, I haven't seen it before." Mingyi smiled, slightly curious. "Sir, he is currently in Hezhou and Shouzhou. There are a lot of things going on there, and I wouldn't trust it if I left it to others." Xue Lin rarely talked about this with her. Mingyi is a little happy, how nice it is to get along like this? While he was talking, Feng Yu had already brought someone to prepare the meal. The meal followed the usual custom of the Governor's Mansion, it was simple but not luxurious, and both of them had their favorite dishes. Mingyi came to Beiguan and fell in love with roasted steamed buns made with roasted mutton. She could eat four or five of them in a row with the warm mutton soup. But today she just scooped up a bowl of mutton soup, but Xue Lin reached over and moved her soup bowl away, "I just drank tea, and if I drink mutton soup again, I'm afraid my spleen and stomach will not be harmed and I will have a stomachache." "The weather will get hotter in the next few days and the mutton soup will be too dry, so don't drink it anymore." "Ah?" Mingyi's face was full of pity. Xue Lin looked at it and smiled slightly, "Besides mutton soup, there are other delicious things in the northwest. Just let the kitchen cook it for you." "You can drink mutton soup again in autumn and winter, and it won't take a few months." Mingyi laughed when she heard this, "Yes!" Mingyi has a good appetite, and everything she eats seems to taste particularly delicious. Xue Lin also seems to have a great appetite. She has prepared a lot of food, and she actually ate it all. Mingyi raised her belly and chuckled softly, "The Governor Xue needs to work harder and secure his position as the Governor of Anxi. Otherwise, with the amount of food we both have, I'm afraid we won't be able to afford it with ordinary wages. I don't want to Hungry!" "Isn't there a wife who makes money to support the family?" Xue Lin asked with a smile, the narrow-mindedness in his eyes was obvious. Sure enough, this man had sharp ears and eyes, and he had heard a lot just now. "As for securing the position of Governor of Anxi, I'm afraid I have to rely on my wife a lot!" Xue Lin said and stretched his body, "The trip to Jizhou... I think Xu Huaian has told you what he should and should not say. not enough." "Not much." Mingyi mumbled, suddenly thinking of something, she said with an annoyed look, "I was talking about other things just now, but I forgot to ask the young Marquis..." At this point, she suddenly realized something, He stopped talking and glanced at Xue Lin with a guilty conscience. "What are you asking?" Xue Lin asked, how could someone as sharp as him not see that someone was guilty?
Mingyi laughed dryly, "It's nothing, it's just... I'm a little surprised. What kind of extraordinary person is Mr. Hu? He doesn't even give Governor Xue the face to sell you a horse!" "Of course it's because in his eyes, I am not Governor Xue." Xue Lin said.
"Huh?" Mingyi didn't expect this at all. "It's good that you know it today. When you leave Changzhou, you will remember that I am not Governor Xue, but Lord Rong of Changzhou. As for you, you are the wife I just married back from Wangjing." Beiguan City is located, It is Changzhou in the Fourteenth Prefecture of Anxi. Master Rong, Mrs. Rong... Mingyi secretly remembered it in her heart, but still felt a little unbelievable, "Is just such a name enough? Do others really not know your identity?" "So what if you know? In short, I say I am Master Rong, and I am Master Rong. Others also call me Master Rong, and that's it." Xue Lin's tone was flat, but with two points of calm determination, Mingyi has seen it before, it is the confidence of a superior person. Mingyi understood that even if they knew each other well, the person who went to buy horses could only be Mr. Rong, a merchant from Changzhou, and not Xue Lin, the governor of the Anxi Army. "No wonder Fourth Master Hu wants to recruit Master Rong as his son-in-law." Mingyi suddenly smiled, looking at Xue Lin with an intriguing look. Xue Lin was stunned for a moment, and gritted his teeth when he saw the interest in her eyes, "This Xu Huaian, he really doesn't know what to say!" On the street, Xu You, who was drinking with others in a wine shop, suddenly felt an inexplicable itchiness in his nose, and he opened his mouth and let out a "sneeze". "What's wrong? Someone scolded you?" His companions blinked nervously. "Nonsense, someone is clearly missing me!" Xu You smiled, unfolded his folding fan, and picked up the wine glass, "Come on, come on, drink! Drink!" In the Governor's Mansion, after hearing Xue Lin's words, Mingyi hurriedly said, "I asked him that, so don't blame him." Xue Lin suddenly turned to look at her, "You care about him very much." The voice was deep in his throat, and he couldn't make out what it meant. "That's natural. Mr. Xu Xiaohou is considerate and humorous. Who doesn't like him?" like? Xue Lin sighed in his heart and smiled, but there was an inexplicable depth in his eyes. "Get some rest early! You have to get up early tomorrow! By the way, have you decided on the people you want to take?" Xue Lin stood up and was about to leave when he asked again. "It's settled. The Governor must have heard it outside just now. I'm going to open some more business, so there are many things that require Fan Shuang to stay and take care of. Sister Su He doesn't want to go with me, so I'll just take Wei Yu with me. ." Luo Suhe followed Fan Shuang and Mingyi in and out these days, as if he was their bodyguard. Mingyi said that he wanted to accompany Xue Lin to Jizhou, so she said that she would stay with Fan Shuang, anyway. Mingyi and Xue Lin are in the same place, and they have someone to protect them, so there is no need for her. Mingyi originally wanted to take her out to relax, but she insisted, so she had no choice but to give up. Xue Lin nodded, "It's better to bring fewer people. If something happens, it's more convenient if there are fewer people." After that, Xue Lin walked away. Mingyi nodded subconsciously. When she realized what she was doing and looked up, she saw that the other person was already outside the house. What if something happened? What will happen?
However, Xue Lin had already left and would not answer her. Mingyi frowned. Is this trip to Jizhou really just a matter of buying horse breeds?
