"Fortunately, the head of the Murong family is very thoughtful and has asked people to prepare fur clothes. Otherwise, with the clothes we brought, I'm afraid the journey would be even more difficult." As Su Yujin said this, he buried his face deeper into the fur collar.
Su Yujin was naturally beautiful. Even though she had put on thick makeup to conceal her appearance and prevent the wind from cracking her skin, her facial features were still well-proportioned and her figure was slender.
At this time, wearing the clothes of a man from the Western Jinyun Kingdom, he looked even more handsome, like a handsome and elegant man.
He Yanxiu couldn't take his eyes off the subject and just smiled, "Patriarch Murong prepared these not only because we are afraid of the cold, but also to prevent those ignorant people from Xijinyun from attacking us and our guards by mistake."
"Yeah." Su Yujin nodded.
As they were talking, the wind blew a little harder, and Su Yujin couldn't help but shrink her neck again.
Seeing this, He Yanxiu reached out and shook Su Yujin's hand.
The thick warm sleeves were placed on the back of Su Yujin's hands, and the dense fur of the fox fur protected them. At this time, Su Yujin's hands were warm and not cold at all.
But even so, He Yanxiu still felt it was not enough, and only put his own cloak on Su Yujin.
Seeing this, Lu Wenjing quietly slowed down her pace and slowly fell behind.
"Miss Lu." Seeing that Lu Wenjing was almost walking with him, Lou Yanlin greeted her and asked with a smile, "Why didn't Miss Lu walk with Princess Ping'an?"
"The road is narrow, only enough for two people to walk side by side. If I squeeze in there, it will seem crowded." Lu Wenjing winked and pouted in the direction of Su Yujin and He Yanxiu, "So it's better to stay away."
Lou Yanlin was originally wondering why Lu Wenjing said this wide road was very crowded, but when he saw He Yanxiu and Su Yujin in the direction of her mouth, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, "So that's it."
Anyone who sees a couple whispering to each other with their heads down would feel embarrassed.
"Minister He and Princess Ping'an have a deep love for each other, which is truly the envy of others." Lou Yanlin added.
He had stayed in Xueyue Mansion for a long time and had heard about the affairs of He Yanxiu and Su Yujin. And since Su Yujin came back from Shimen County, he had witnessed with his own eyes the deep love between He Yanxiu and Su Yujin.
The two had never said any vows of eternal love, nor had they ever behaved in a lovey-dovey manner, but on a daily basis their eyes were filled with tenderness, and their actions revealed the close friendship that only exists between husband and wife.
Everything is so natural and smooth, just like a meal that is just the right flavor, light in taste but can be enjoyed for a long time.
This reminded Lou Yanlin of his father and mother when he was a child, who looked like this too, and made him feel very comfortable.
"It's really enviable." Lu Wenjing nodded.
Although I am often fed with dog food on a daily basis, I have to say that the friendship between He Yanxiu and Su Yujin is hard to find in the world.
Lu Wenjing thought so and subconsciously glanced at Lou Yanlin beside her.
And Lou Yanlin was also secretly looking at her at this time.
The two looked at each other, then quickly turned away and lowered their heads.
Lu Wenjing blushed slightly, and after a long while she said, "Speaking of which, Mr. Lou is old enough to get married. I wonder if he has chosen a wife?"
"I am ashamed to say that in the early years, because of the disputes over the property of my uncles and aunts, there was no elder to plan these things for me. Later, Xiaosong and I got separated, and I focused on finding Xiaosong. After returning to Xijinyun Country, I was worried about various things, so I am still alone now."
After hesitating for a moment, Lou Yanlin looked at Lu Wenjing and said, "This may be a bit presumptuous, but I heard that the etiquette of the Great Qin Kingdom is to get engaged early, and Miss Lu is the daughter of a duke..."
Hesitant to speak.
Lu Wenjing chuckled, "As for me, no one has come to propose marriage to me yet."
The look he gave Lou Yanlin was full of meaning.
Lou Yanlin felt relieved, but was a little surprised, "Why is this?"
Lu Wenjing was so bright and lively, and her family background was even more prominent. Anyone who wanted to marry into her family would have to break down the Lu family's doorstep.
"Maybe they are afraid of my grandfather and father." Lu Wenjing smiled, "Both of them are ferocious. Just by showing their faces, they scared everyone away ten miles away."
Lu Wenjing's joke made Lou Yanlin laugh repeatedly, "Miss Lu, you are joking. I think Duke Dingguo and General Lu are both very kind and approachable on weekdays."
"That's because you are an outsider to them now, not someone who is coming to propose marriage. Grandfather and father will naturally not treat you coldly." Lu Wenjing chuckled, "If you don't believe it, then give it a try and see if Grandfather and father's attitude will change drastically?"
Give it a try? What to try? Try to visit the Lu family and propose marriage?
Lou Yanlin was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Lu Wen quietly smiling, his heart tightened.
Thinking of Lu Wenjing's meticulous care for him in Shilin County and seeing Lu Wenjing's meaningful eyes, Lou Yanlin had reason to believe that she had quite a bit of affection for him.
Lou Yanlin's throat rolled over, he cleared his dry throat, and subconsciously wanted to say "Let's try it."
But the chill brought by the northwest wind made Lou Yanlin suddenly sober up.
Holding the reins tightly with both hands, Lou Yanlin raised his eyes and looked into the distance.
Beilun County is right ahead, but it cannot be seen at the moment.
It was as if he had no idea what would happen after arriving in Beilun County.
Although everything was well planned, there were always unexpected events. If Prince Yu's seizure of power was not successful, their Lou family would be doomed, and he might no longer be in this world.
It seems meaningless to talk about these things now.
Lou Yanlin swallowed his words, lowered his head, and remained silent for a long time.
Lu Wenjing pursed her lips.
The wind was blowing stronger and stronger, and as the sun set, it felt even colder.
Lu Wenjing, who is usually not afraid of the cold, couldn't help but shrink her neck and pull her fur collar closer.
We continued on our journey until evening.
The horses needed to rest and eat grass, so everyone chose a place sheltered from the wind, lit a campfire and started cooking and keeping warm.
The whole lamb rack is roasted over fire, making the skin crispy and fragrant.
After it's cooked, you can cut the mutton directly with a knife, dip it in salt, or eat it directly. It is fragrant, delicious and extremely tasty.
When Su Yujin came, she brought some barbecue ingredients she prepared herself, and sprinkled them on the steaming lamb. It tasted delicious and fragrant in one bite.
When others smelled the wonderful aroma, they came to ask Su Yujin for some powder to taste.
