Chapter 311 We Just Have to Trust Her
Jiang Mingyuan bowed to An Qinghe.
An Qinghe became proud, "Thanks to your good vision, you have made friends like me and Xixi."
Jiang Mingyuan asked, "So we are already friends?"
An Qinghe glared at him, "When did we stop being friends?"
The two of them laughed, picked up the teacups tacitly, and drank one cup of tea instead of wine.
Looking at Lu Jing again, looking at this and looking at that, she was so moved that she didn't know what to say.
She stood up suddenly, "I toast to everyone!!"
Lu Jing raised her head and drank the tea in one gulp. When she put down the cup, there was only determination in her eyes and she smiled at everyone.
From now on I will no longer feel anxious about owing anyone anything.
Since she has decided to fight for her life, what else does she have to fear?
As for the great kindness that is hard to repay, she only needs to remember it and repay it with her body for the rest of her life.
If I continue to refuse, I would be pretending and would be unworthy of the enthusiasm of these friends.
Just now An Qinghe mentioned the matter of changing the name. Gu Xixi thought about it and said to Lu Jing:
"You said you were born when the sun was at its highest point in the sky, and your name is related to this."
"How about we call you Little Sun along the way?"
Lu Jing's beautiful eyes lit up, "Little Sun? Nice, I like it!"
She wants to be like the little sun, warming the people around her and stopping them from worrying about her.
Jiang Mingyuan and An Qinghe also smiled and nodded in agreement.
As for the names of other people, there is no need to hide them, except...
All three looked at An Qinghe.
Lu Jing said, "Brother An's is a little different and easy to attract attention."
"And he is so handsome that people can't help but want to take a few more glances and leave a deep impression."
An Qinghe was a little depressed when he heard that he was different from everyone else, but he became happy when he heard Lu Jing praising his handsomeness.
"I think so too, little sun, you just love to tell the truth!"
"How's the saying? It's hard to give up natural beauty."
"Otherwise I would wear a headscarf or a hood or something to cover my head and face so as not to attract attention."
Gu Xixi covered her face with her bowl and laughed secretly. This guy is really narcissistic.
Jiang Mingyuan said, "Brother An, natural beauty is usually used to describe women."
An Qinghe was probably used to being corrected by He Jinglan and didn't care.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you understand what I mean!"
Three days later, in the capital of Daye.
The carriage was moving along the straight and wide street.
The capital city had not experienced any war, and this place was close to the East Market, so the street scenes along the way were very prosperous.
There are shops of all sizes standing side by side, the sounds of vendors and jugglers are endless, and from time to time you can see caravans heading to Beijing from all over the country.
Riding a horse was prohibited in the city, so An Qinghe could only slow down and move forward slowly.
That's just fine.
Since entering the city, Gu Xixi has been leaning against the car window to look out, and her eyes are almost not enough.
It turns out that this is the capital of Daye, this is the prosperity of ancient times!
Seeing a Hu merchant caravan passing by, Gu Xixi smiled and said to the front, "There are camels!"
"Anqing, say hello to you. If it's a camel from your hometown, maybe you know it!"
An Qinghe turned around and asked, "Why don't you let me say hello to people?"
"You asked me to say hello to the camel. Do you think I am the same as it?"
Gu Xixi's eyes drifted out the window, and she looked around and said something else, "What a big tea shop, worthy of being in the capital."
Lu Jing stood behind Gu Xixi and looked at the strange thing together. "So this is a camel. It's so big!"
"Tea shop? Where? I wonder if they have my tea..."
Since traveling with Gu Xixi, Lu Jing has witnessed many things that he had never seen before in his life.
She felt for the first time that the world was not the tea garden at home, nor was it Anning Village.
It's a pity that she is not worthy of experiencing all this with her heart now.
Most of the most luxurious places for spending money in the capital are concentrated in the East Market.
There are many teahouses and restaurants, and Gu Xixi wants to visit one of these places.
Everyone was visiting Beijing for the first time. An Qinghe had the most experience in traveling far away, followed by Gu Xixi.
So the two of them decided not to go into the East Market first, but to find a relatively affordable inn outside to stay in.
An Qinghe drove the carriage as he searched, and finally turned off the main street and entered a relatively quiet side road.
There is an inn here with a large front door and a tall hanging flag that can be seen when passing by.
An Qinghe and Jiang Mingyuan went into the store to take a look.
The lobby is spacious, the tables, chairs and counters are clean and tidy, there are three floors with a backyard, and there is a kitchen for meals and hot water.
From time to time, guests came in and out and greeted the shopkeeper and his staff.
It's a normal inn.
An Qinghe took a look at the sign on the wall and decided that this was the place.
He still asked the shopkeeper to open two guest rooms and prepare hot water and simple meals.
It was already past noon. When An Qinghe and Jiang Mingyuan finished settling everything and came out, they saw Gu Xixi pacing beside the carriage.
An Qinghe glanced at the empty car and asked casually, "Where's Little Sun?"
Gu Xixi said, "Oh, she asked why you haven't come out yet, let's go in and take a look."
Jiang Mingyuan said, "But we were in the lobby the whole time and didn't see her."
Gu Xixi and An Qinghe looked at each other and were both stunned.
An Qinghe was surprised and asked, "Could it be that Little Sun left without saying goodbye?"
Gu Xixi said, "She got off the car first, holding her luggage. I didn't expect her to leave. I thought she just wanted to settle down first, so I didn't look at her..."
She and Lu Jing have been sleeping, eating and riding together these days and have been inseparable.
I was so used to having Lu Jing around that I temporarily forgot our agreement to only go to the capital together.
An Qinghe said anxiously, "I'll go find her."
"Don't go." Gu Xixi looked at An Qinghe calmly.
Once An Qinghe identifies a friend, he will treat that person with all his heart.
He was puzzled and said, "But she said that the farthest she had been in her life was only the southern county town. The capital is so big and there are so many people. She shouldn't be deceived and sold by herself."
Jiang Mingyuan said, "Listen to Xixi. Little Sun has the right to choose."
"She is always afraid of getting us into trouble. Even if you find her now, she will not come back with you and continue to live with us."
An Qinghe was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "So we're just going to leave it alone?"
Gu Xixi and Jiang Mingyuan looked at each other and said, "Who said we don't care?"
"She went to Jingzhao Prefecture to beat the drum to appeal for justice, which will surely cause a stir among the people. We will naturally be able to find her then."
Looking at Jiang Mingyuan again, although he didn't say anything, his expression showed the same meaning.
An Qinghe's eyes lit up again, "I knew it!"
"But is she safe now?"
Gu Xixi said, "A weak woman risked her entire life and property to travel to the capital, facing all the unknowns alone. From the moment she made the decision, she was no longer weak."
"Besides, if she was just a stupid person and lost her parents' protection, she would have been killed by the evil slaves of the Fan family long ago. How could she have had the chance to run out and meet us?"
An Qinghe was shocked, "You mean she..."
Gu Xixi was very calm. "The capital is large and populated. If she leaves us, she will be a smaller target. I believe she will be able to protect herself."
"You, me, and Brother Zichu also have things to do."
"Do what you need to do and wait for her to... make some noise herself."
