Chapter 128: Entering the Space with Zhuangzhuang



I'm so stupid that I didn't even think of such an important thing.

Who said there is nothing to eat? There are still grilled sausages in my refrigerator. It seems that I haven’t finished eating the sausages I put in last time. How come there are still quite a few in the refrigerator?

There is meat in the refrigerator, a stove in the kitchen, and the seasonings are ready, so you can just cook for Zhuangzhuang.

Xiaoguo wanted to slap himself on the head. How could he have forgotten the things in the space? He was such a fool!

Thinking of this, Xiaoguo increased the frequency of clapping and even hummed a lullaby in a hurry.

Zhuangzhuang fell asleep quickly. Xiaoguo patted him gently, and after making sure he was asleep, he prepared to put him down gently.

Xiaoguo hesitated again. It wasn't safe here either, and she really didn't feel comfortable leaving him outside.

Xiaoguo stuck his head out and looked outside. There was a group of people at the county gate and no one had gone in for a long time. He then turned around and looked around. There was nothing unusual. Everyone's attention was attracted by the county gate and no one was paying attention to him.

So Xiaoguo came up with a bold idea to bring Zhuangzhuang into the space as well.

Anyway, Zhuangzhuang is sleeping soundly now, so just move gently.

Holding Zhuangzhuang tightly in her arms, she quickly entered the space, put Zhuangzhuang on the clean table, and put a box of kitchen paper under her head.

After leaving Zhuangzhuang cautiously and making sure that he was not awake, Xiaoguo quickly opened the refrigerator, took out some intestines, lit a fire, poured oil and fried them, all in one go.

Zhuangzhuang only moved a little when he smelled the fragrance, but he didn't wake up afterwards, so Xiaoguo prepared boldly.

After finding a few skewers to string the grilled sausages together, Xiaoguo gently carried Zhuangzhuang back to the carriage.

Xiaoguo patted Zhuangzhuang gently, trying to wake him up, but Zhuangzhuang was sleeping very soundly and turned over after much stroking.

Xiaoguo changed her posture, then took the sausage and placed it under Zhuangzhuang's nose, tempting him.

Sure enough, this method was very effective. The strong little nose first contracted a few times, and then the little mouth moved, and soon saliva flowed out from the corners of the mouth.

Xiaoguo burst out laughing.

After hearing the sound, Zhuangzhuang woke up slowly and locked onto the intestines as soon as he opened his eyes.

Because Xiaoguo put the intestines near his strong nose, his strong eyes aimed at the intestines and formed a fighting eye.

Zhuangzhuang wiped his saliva and looked at the sausage, which was actually real. He thought he was dreaming, but the sausage fried by his mother in the dream turned out to be real.

The hungry Zhuangzhuang didn't eat first because he was in a hurry. Xiaoguo stopped teasing him and handed him three sausages, "Eat it."

Zhuangzhuang chuckled, took the sausage from Xiaoguo's arms and started eating.

Xiaoguo ate while lifting the curtain to look outside. It had been a long time, but the crowd had not moved and the carriage had also stopped. The sun had already set and the sky was gradually getting dark.

After Xiaoguo and Zhuangzhuang finished eating and threw the sticks outside, an official knocked on their sedan chair.

"We can't get through the city gate, so we decided to set up camp here."

Xiaoguo recognized the voice of the person coming. It was the official who kindly gave her the food bag today.

"Yeah, got it."

Xiaoguo said across the carriage, "What a pity! We still have to spend the night outside. But never mind. We have to set out early tomorrow morning. We only have to rest for one night, but why can't we get in after waiting in line for such a long time?"

Not long after the official left, the carriage, which had been motionless for a long time, started moving.

Xiaoguo lifted the curtain and saw that they had gone far away from the city gate, stopped at a certain distance, set up camp and lit a fire.

After a while, an official brought Xiaoguo an oil lamp to light up the place, and told her that the meal would be ready soon, so she should wait patiently.

Xiaoguo smiled and nodded. After everyone left, she got out of the carriage. The fire was always on on her side, which seemed a little pitiful compared to the side at the city gate.

Xiaoguo walked closer to that direction. In the darkness, people were still crowded together, waiting to enter the city gate. None of them showed any strange expression on their faces because of the closed city gate, as if they were used to it.

Xiao Guo found this strange. How could a normal person not show the slightest sign of annoyance after waiting in line for a long time? These people's expressions were so calm that it was a little scary.

"Mother~"

The strong voice brought her back to her senses. Xiaoguo turned around and took another look in that direction before returning to the carriage. She knew she would be leaving tomorrow anyway, so she didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

"Mom, the meal is here."

Zhuangzhuang was holding a plate with simple rice porridge and a piece of barbecue on it.

It seems that this was just brought over by the officials, and I was too focused on the city gate and didn't notice the carriage.

"Eat it."

Zhuangzhuang and Xiaoguo were not very hungry, but they still finished all the food that was served to them. Saving food is a virtue.

After nightfall, everything was quiet and all the officers except the ones on night watch had fallen asleep.

In order to help Zhuangzhuang sleep more comfortably, Xiaoguo took out some clothes from his bag and spread them under him. He then rolled the clothes into a small pillow and placed it under Zhuangzhuang's head.

"Go to sleep."

Xiaoguo patted Zhuangzhuang's back gently. Zhuangzhuang's eyes opened and closed slower and slower, and finally he fell into a deep sleep.

It was still a bit cold at night, especially since we were outdoors, and a sedan could not block out much of the cold.

Xiaoguo took out a piece of clothing from her bag, put it on Zhuangzhuang, then put her arms around him, and gradually she felt sleepy herself.

In the middle of the night, Xiaoguo suddenly woke up, hugged Zhuangzhuang, and listened quietly to the sounds around him.

Xiaoguo breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't hear any unusual sounds. It seemed that he had fallen asleep.

Xiaoguo gently got up and stretched her waist and shoulders. This carriage was really not a place to sleep. She felt aching all over after not sleeping for long.

Listening to the strong breathing, Xiaoguo thought for a moment and got up from the carriage.

She woke up halfway and couldn't fall asleep again, so she might as well go out and stretch her muscles.

It was very quiet outside, with only the occasional voices of the officials and the sound of burning wood. Xiao Guo looked around and did not dare to go far. He just stretched his arms and legs about three meters away from the carriage.

At this time, Xiaoguo was still curious and wanted to see the situation at the city gate.

So she took a few steps towards that direction. It was so dark that she couldn't see anything clearly. There was only a faint light from the fire.

Xiaoguo could only squint to get a rough idea of ​​what was going on. It seemed vaguely as if the city gate was wide open, and a group of people covered in cloth came out. There were also some officials carrying something out, but the whole thing was wrapped in a sack and it was impossible to see what it was.

The people who were waiting numbly at the city gate became lively when they saw the gate open, and those people covered with cloth slowly walked towards the people waiting at the gate, and left in twos and threes. One person waiting at the gate saw something being carried out and seemed to be shouting something, but it was too far away, Xiaoguo could not hear it, and could only vaguely see the roar.
