Unfortunately, she couldn't speak; she could only smile faintly at Qin Susu.
Qiu Yan handed the two of them two sets of clothes, then said to Wu Qing:
"Let me see how your accounts are done in a bit."
After Wu Qing and Wen Niang changed their clothes, they seemed like completely different people.
Qiu Yan led Wu Qing and his wife to the main hall and handed them over to the shopkeeper.
She asked the shopkeeper to explain the accounts to Wu Qing and also instructed him to give Wen Niang a menial task.
He was washing dishes and cleaning plates in the kitchen.
If possible, accept them.
There was gratitude in Wen Niang's eyes, but Qiu Yan could still see a hint of sadness in them.
This afternoon, Qiu Yan spent the entire time teaching Wei Zhong how to make squirrel fish.
Of course, there's also her recipe for fresh ingredients.
Now, Wei Zhong has truly gotten something for nothing.
Another busy day has passed.
After arranging everything at Shuangxi Restaurant, Qiu Yan and Qin Susu embarked on their journey west once again.
A gentle breeze caressed my face, bringing a sense of warmth.
Tender green shoots have already sprouted on the branches, and birds flit about merrily among the swaying branches.
Wildflowers are blooming in large patches.
As the weather gets warmer, the two of them, each on a horse, appear leisurely and carefree, but in reality...
"Xiaoyan, my butt hurts, and my back aches. Can I rest for a while?"
She missed the old carriage, but Xiaoyan said that the carriage took too long, and now they didn't have a driver.
"Didn't we just rest?" Qiu Yan spurred her horse and quickly left Qin Susu behind.
Qin Susu, with a miserable expression, chased after him desperately.
Thank goodness, night finally fell.
In one day, they passed through five cities.
At dusk, Qin Susu dismounted and collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Qiu Yan: "Susu, get up. If the city gates are closed, we'll have to spend the night in the wilderness."
With Qin Susu by her side, she didn't feel lonely at all.
"Huh?" Qin Susu jumped up. "Giddy up!"
Qiu Yan gave chase, and the two finally entered a city before the city gates closed, searching for a place to spend the night...
Day after day, a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The climate has changed from warm to hot and dry.
The two were often drenched in sweat as they traveled.
Fortunately, they no longer have to worry about not having enough to eat.
During their journey, Qiu Yan and her companion endured countless hardships.
They were nothing more than bandits and outlaws who robbed people of their money and sexually assaulted.
However, without Qiu Yan having to lift a finger, Qin Susu defeated them one by one.
Gradually, they arrived at the border of Western Qin.
Qiu Yan then realized that Qin County was located on the west side of the city.
There are also many troops guarding the border between the two countries.
Qiu Yan and her companion disguised themselves as traveling merchants, and this time, they easily left the city.
After leaving the city, they traveled for another month.
During their journey, they passed through two small countries.
In fact, it cannot be called a country; it can only be called a tribe.
Whenever Qiu Yan arrives at a new place, she always familiarizes herself with the local environment beforehand.
The further west you go, the stronger the exotic atmosphere becomes.
The people here are also quite friendly.
For example, the place where they are staying today is a tent in a manor.
The estate owner raised a lot of cattle and sheep.
At night, they also invited these businesspeople to their bonfire party.
They spent some money to buy some beef and mutton, and everyone gathered around the campfire, enjoying themselves immensely.
Qin Susu ate until her mouth was greasy and her belly was bulging, but she still wasn't satisfied.
The journey ahead seemed somewhat difficult.
Qiu Yan and Qin Susu walked quite a distance before they could see scattered villages and sparse population.
