She could only wait for Jiang Shanhe to come and answer her doubts.

Not long after, Xiaoguo felt that the carriage started moving again and Jiang Shanhe came back. This time he did not ride a horse, but sat directly in the carriage.

Looking at the sweat on his forehead, Xiao Guo subconsciously took out a handkerchief and wiped it for him, "Why are you sweating so much?"

She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the other person’s face didn’t look good, as if he was sick.

Jiang Shanhe was very accommodating to her intimate behavior and even leaned closer to her intentionally. When he heard her ask this, he said without thinking, "It's a little hot outside."

Xiaoguo listened to the sound of wind blowing through the leaves and nodded in a daze. How could it still be hot when the wind was so strong?

“Why did you come to this small fishing village?”

"Because the place where we boarded the ship was in a small fishing village, the wind was strong today and the sea was a bit rough. The Chin Tian Observatory said that a heavy rain would come soon, so we could only rest for one night in the small fishing village nearby."

Jiang Shanhe explained to her, but Xiaoguo was a little curious. Although it was windy outside, it was cloudless and the sun was shining brightly. Could the weather really change suddenly?

Confused, I continued to ask, "Since we are boarding the boat at the small fishing village, why don't you let me go directly to the small fishing village to wait for you? After all, it is just next door and close."

Who knew that after Xiaoguo finished speaking, Jiang Shanhe was happy and pinched her cheek lovingly, "Who told you it was very close."

"That's what they say!"

Xiao Guo slapped his hand unconvincedly and said.

Jiang Shanhe had laughed enough, and seeing her angry look, he quickly explained, "The two villages are close to each other in the mountains, so they are called neighboring villages. But if you really walk, there is still some distance between them. There are countless small villages in between. If one person drives a horse-drawn carriage from Taohua Village to Xiaoyu Village, it will normally take a day. However, if you walk from the mountain, it is fast, but you can only walk. The carriage can only go up a short distance, and it is difficult to move halfway. It will take most of the day to walk to the back mountain of Xiaoyu Village."

"So, I want to see you earlier, and Zhuangzhuang."

Xiaoguo was listening very carefully at first, but when this sentence suddenly came out at the end, she blushed.

"So sudden?"

Xiaoguo blushed and spoke calmly.

Jiang Shanhe was also shy, but continued, "I wanted to see you earlier, and the distance is about the same, so I chose this place."

Xiaoguo withdrew his gaze and nodded to indicate that he understood.

"By the way, you said in your letter that you would come to pick us up in about 15 days, but you came two days late, on the 17th day. Aren't you afraid that I won't be ready? Or won't have time to call Zhuangzhuang?"

Xiaoguo wanted to ask him yesterday, but never got the chance.

"Are you a numbers person?"

Jiang Shanhe did not answer, but asked back.

Xiao Guo understood immediately and chuckled, "Of course not."

"And I know you're not."

Jiang Shanhe said the same thing.

After he finished speaking, the two smiled at each other, their tacit understanding evident without words.

The reason why Jiang Danhe wrote down the number of days was just to give Xiaoguo an idea so that she would know the approximate number of days. However, the people around him directly told Xiaoguo that the number of days was uncertain and it was hard to say whether it would be early or late.

Xiaoguo also understood his intention, so she prepared in advance. It didn't matter if she was late, as long as she prepared in advance.

He knew that she was not a lazy and one-sided person, and she also knew that he was not a person who did not understand her.

Even though the days they had spent together could be counted, even though they were still very unfamiliar with each other before, even though they had a four-year-old child.

However, this still cannot stop the two hearts from wanting to get to know each other and get closer to each other.

Both of them are people who will take responsibility for each other for the rest of their lives once they decide to be together.

At this time, the carriage stopped. Jiang Shanhe asked Xiaoguo to stay here and wait for him, and then got off the carriage. However, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but when Xiaoguo saw him get off the carriage, his shoulders suddenly shook.

Before she could take a closer look, the man left.

Looking at the figure walking briskly, Xiaoguo blinked his eyes. Was he seeing things?

Not long after, Xiaoguo got off the car with her luggage, and Jiang Shanhe met her below.

This was the small fishing village, but it was nothing like what she had imagined. There was no sea, no beach, only the salty sea breeze that blew occasionally, reminding her that she was at the seaside.

Jiang Shanhe took the bag and took her to the place where they would rest for the night.

The salty sea breeze was cool and comfortable on my body. People around were busy, some were loading and unloading luggage, and some were dressed as villagers leading people. It was very lively for a while.

The reason for choosing a small fishing village as a temporary place for rest, besides the convenience of boarding the ship, is that there are many vacant houses and a small population. Most fishermen are often away from home for seven or eight days, so they can live comfortably here.

If there is a heavy rain tonight, the sea will definitely not be calm. Even if they want to set up camp, they can only do so on the beach, as there is no flat ground around. However, when a heavy rain comes, the sea water will rise, and it will be too dangerous to set up tents on the beach as they may be flooded or washed away at any time.

Jiang Shanhe and Xiaoguo came to a room and heard him introduce that there was a little girl in the room and the elders of the family were out.

"Why do you look so familiar?"

Xiaoguo asked curiously.

"I came here to inspect it before." Jiang Shanhe knocked on the door, then turned around and said to her with a smile, "It's impossible for you to come here without knowing the surrounding situation."

Xiao Guo didn't say anything, but just smiled embarrassedly. She almost forgot that this was the emperor's trip, and he would definitely inquire about all the places he passed by or stopped along the way, and he would also prepare seven or eight plans. She really couldn't figure it out for a while.

At this time, the sound of running footsteps was heard from inside the house, and then a young girl with dark skin appeared at the door.

Looking at the two strangers outside the door, he said politely, "Hello, please come in."

"Hello, sorry to bother you."

The little girl was stunned, then her face turned red. She looked at Xiaoguo shyly. She didn't expect that she was so pretty and so easy to talk to.

Xiaoguo had a good impression of the girl in front of him. Although she was dark-skinned, the cleverness in her big eyes made her very endearing.

This time it was Jiang Shanhe's turn to follow Xiaoguo. He looked at the two people in front of him helplessly. He was extremely jealous. This woman had abandoned him so quickly. What was the point of always pestering and chatting with a little girl?

The little girl's name is Xiaozhu. She is only twelve years old. She had heard from the village chief before that the guests coming this time were very important and asked them to entertain them well and not to be rash. He asked them to prepare and clean the room very early. If the distinguished guests can come, they will be given the best conditions. If they don't come, forget it.

After a long time, the distinguished guest didn't come. Everyone thought he would not come, but he really came. When she opened the door just now, she was very scared. She was afraid that her appearance would offend others and that the distinguished guest would dislike her. However, nothing she imagined happened. She was in a daze until she arranged the two of them into the room. Then she loosened her hands, revealing her palms that were red from nervousness.

Xiaoguo sat on the clean bed and looked at the surrounding environment. He was very satisfied. The wooden house was bright and clean.

"By the way, where's Zhuangzhuang?"

"He was with Xiao Yi. He probably slept with him at night. Xiao Yi wouldn't let him leave."

Just before Jiang Shanhe called Xiaoguo, he went to look for Zhuangzhuang, who had already moved to another spacious house with Xiaoyi. Zhuangzhuang wanted to come over with him, but Xiaoyi refused to let him go no matter what, so he had no choice but to give up and come over by himself.
