Considering her injuries, this time he didn't let her sit astride the horse, but let her sit sideways on the horse, leaning on his arms.
As the horse slowly began to return, he took out an oil-paper package from his arms, opened it layer by layer carefully, took out a small piece of something from it, and handed it to Li Shushu's lips. Although Li Shushu was puzzled, he still obediently opened his mouth and took it in.
Then, she began to chew vigorously and carefully. When the familiar taste came, her face showed surprise.
After seeing her expression, he was satisfied and threw one into his own mouth.
It's beef jerky.
This is a kind of beef jerky unique to the Loy people.
When they were young, their parents often made it for them. They would use the best yak meat, cook it with some medicinal herbs that can strengthen the body, then cut it into thin strips and dry it in a windy place.
This kind of beef jerky is different from ordinary beef jerky. In addition to the strong cumin flavor, it also has a light medicinal fragrance. In order to facilitate preservation, it will be sun-dried and very strong and chewy.
At the beginning, his parents saw that he liked to go out hunting, and they were afraid that he would be hungry on the road, so they made some dry food for him.
Later, Li Shushu found out and she insisted on trying it. The more the adults told her that it was not allowed and that it was too hard, and that she, a child with bad teeth, should not eat this kind of food, the more she insisted on eating it.
Ashileyan was so pestered by her that he had no choice but to give her one, and repeatedly told her to go slowly, slowly...
But before she could finish her words, she nodded repeatedly, ignored him and started biting him. As a result...
There was a crisp "crunch" sound, and she felt a pain in her mouth, and a salty and fishy taste spread in her mouth.
She quickly opened her mouth and spat out two bloody front teeth...
"Wuwuwuwu, this thing is too hard, it knocked out my front teeth, wuwuwu!" She was terrified and burst into tears, going to complain to her parents...
In fact, it was only after her parents explained it to her repeatedly that she realized that the dried meat was hard, but not that hard. It was just that she was seven or eight years old and it was just the time for her to change her teeth. Wasn't that a coincidence?
When he thought of the girl with two missing front teeth and crying loudly, he couldn't help but smile.
Li Shushu obviously thought of the past as well. For a moment, he was glad that the person beside him was still there, and he hugged him tighter.
Buddha said: All encounters in this world are actually reunions after a long separation...

Dear friends, the author is conflicted about the following text, so please give me some advice: Originally, my arrangement was to let the heroine give birth to a child and become the queen mother directly, and the hero was willing to be the regent to assist them. However, the hero is so good, so I feel reluctant to abuse him. However, if the heroine changes her mind, I am afraid that you will scold her for being love-brained.
In fact, the author admits that he is a little love-sick. What do you think he should choose?
1. The heroine gives birth to a child and becomes the queen mother;
2. The hero takes over the Khan's throne, and the heroine remarries him and becomes the queen mother in the future.
Please help me vote. If no one votes, I will just write whatever I like, haha!
