Singh and Tamu looked at each other, exchanged a few more words and laughed, and continued eating.
Qin Susu couldn't understand their language at all, and she couldn't help but wonder what they were saying. She really wanted to know.
She took a lamb chop and looked at Ap.
"Lamb chops, lamb chops."
Tell me quickly, what do you call lamb chops where you're from?
Apu looked bewildered, quickly shook his head, and tried to explain in his own language.
She was full.
Qin Susu twitched her lips. Well, the communication was different, it was completely different.
...As the conversation drew to a close, the woman asked Qiu Yan and the other woman their names.
Qiu Yan also learned from this that the man's name was Han Jin and the woman's name was Jiang Cai'er.
Finally, Jiang Cai'er said to Qiu Yan and the other two:
"This inn belongs to my sister; her husband is a local. If you're not in a hurry to leave, you can stay here for now."
She had finally met someone from the Central Plains, so she thought she should get closer to them.
"Your sister is really amazing." Qin Susu said with some surprise.
She couldn't accept the men here. "No rush, we're not in a hurry."
Qin Susu thought about the bedding in the inn and just wanted to rest well, but she didn't know what Xiaoyan was thinking.
"Where is your sister?" Qiu Yan was also thinking of making her acquaintance, since they didn't know anyone in this foreign country.
My sister went out on something.
The woman spoke of her sister with pity on her face.
Back then, when the Western Qin Kingdom fell, her parents died, her parents-in-law perished in the war, her older siblings disappeared, and her only remaining family member was her pitiful younger sister, left all alone and destitute.
That time, her husband went to the battlefield with the intention of dying. Before leaving, he told her to take all the money and escape as soon as possible, and of course she wanted to take her sister with her.
Fortunately, the younger sister was blessed with good fortune and met a foreign lover, which also made her older sister's life better and better.
Vera remained quiet throughout the meal.
After the meal, he asked Qiu Yan,
Are we looking for accommodation?
Qiu Yan was preoccupied with finding the person and had been restless for a long time.
“Master Vera, I need to go out this afternoon to find my companions, you…”
“Let’s go together.” Vera looked into Qiu Yan’s eyes and said sincerely.
"It's not safe for two women to be out and about."
He still speaks with a strong Western accent, but at least he's no longer speaking incoherently.
“We can do it.” Qiu Yan didn’t want to find someone and then rush around with a bunch of foreigners.
She couldn't help but laugh when she thought about it herself.
Qin Susu immediately wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
"Xiaoyan, can I not go?"
"Okay." Qiu Yan was definitely not joking, but Qin Susu couldn't take it seriously.
She still wanted to stay with Xiaoyan. "We've been gone for so long, are you really that concerned about this short while?" Qin Susu muttered softly, heaven knows how much she wanted to sleep.
Before leaving, Qiu Yan went to the counter to pay, but was told that Vera's people had already paid.
She was a little embarrassed, after all, she and Qin Susu had been eating her food the whole way during their desert trip.
It should be noted that the copper coins used in the Western Regions are not interchangeable with those used in the Central Plains.
They had their own minted copper coins.
But silver is universal.
Half a tael of silver can be exchanged for five hundred of their self-minted coins, just like in the Central Plains.
"You all need to be careful." Vera still wanted to come along. He was constantly thinking about learning Chinese with Qiu Yan, because only by speaking the same language could they communicate better.
