Doctor Ling had an auntie's smile on his face, but he pouted and shook his head, unable to bear it.
But in his heart, he was secretly happy for Xiao Mingzhan. It was time for this iron tree to bloom. If he didn't find a girl, he would have to believe the rumors outside - that Mingzhan was a homosexual.
Ran is a good girl, but her status is a little low.
There's no point in worrying about these things. You can tell at a glance that this girl hasn't figured it out yet. She's not even fourteen years old yet and is really still a child.
Doctor Ling coughed twice and said, "You two should be mindful of the consequences. Men and women shouldn't touch each other!"
After hearing this, Gu Xinran couldn't help but chuckle, "Grandpa Ling, what's with that look in your eyes? You're overthinking it. Brother Xiao is my real brother."
In Gu Xinran's mind, a prince must be paired with a lady from a wealthy family. A rich lady, three wives and four concubines, has nothing to do with her.
Xiao Mingzhan glared at Doctor Ling in dissatisfaction, then lowered his head and smiled without saying anything.
Doctor Ling was not afraid of his glare. Before he met Gu Xinran, he had a cold and expressionless face every day due to the torture of the poison.
It's rare that he has become popular now, and he is so happy that he can't contain himself.
Having done what needed to be done and said what needed to be said, Gu Xinran, worried about her family on the road, said goodbye.
"Brother Xiao, Doctor Ling, please be careful and take care of yourself when you are on the move. I will miss you."
When Xiao Mingzhan heard "I will miss him", his cheeks turned red and he ignored the word "them".
I secretly complained in my heart that girls should be more reserved. How could she say such things?
Slightly shyly, she said, "Okay, I'll miss you too."
To Gu Xinran, words like "I will miss you" are just polite words.
She couldn't help but look at Xiao Mingzhan a few more times.
Alas, this opportunity is gone, and we have to say goodbye. I don’t know how long it will take before I can meet such a beauty again. The space is about to stop developing again!
The road ahead is filled with the tragic scenes of people with pale faces, lack of food and drink, and even selling their children. What can I use to cleanse my eyes that have seen so much suffering, and purify my heart that has been filled with filth? Oh, my thoughts drift too far...
Gu Xinran reluctantly said, "My grandfather and his men should be able to arrive in the city this afternoon. I'm going to the city gate to greet them. So, goodbye!"
Xiao Mingzhan enjoyed spending time with Gu Xinran, but there were still countless things waiting for him to deal with. He had to take a break from his busy schedule and could only say goodbye reluctantly.
"Xinran, the journey is tough. I'll have someone send you some rice and water later. Take care!"
After saying that, he stood up and left. There was a large group of people outside the door, waiting for him to discuss important matters.
"Brother Xiao, take care of yourself too!"
Xiao Mingzhan waved his hand, and his back slowly disappeared at the door...
Doctor Ling hesitated to speak, looking as if he had something to say but was too embarrassed to speak.
Seeing him like this, Gu Xinran felt exhausted for him. "Grandpa Ling, what can I do for you? I have a favor to ask."
Doctor Ling wished that he had something that Gu Xinran wanted, so that he could take the opportunity to ask for a few more jars of wine, as that wine was really to his taste.
"Ran girl, you speak first."
"Do you still have the drug Softening Powder? That drug is very powerful."
Gu Xinran gave a thumbs up as he spoke.
"Yes, you need to prepare more on the road to save your life."
As Doctor Ling spoke, he took out the treasure bag from his waist, and soon the table was filled with bottles and jars.
Laxatives, aphrodisiacs, aphrodisiacs, itching pills, and red-crowned cranes...
Gu Xinran smiled broadly, "Give me all these? Grandpa Ling, you are my real grandpa."
She shook Dr. Ling's arm coquettishly.
Doctor Ling didn't intend to give her all of it at first, as improper use of those poisons would hurt both himself and others, but who could have told him that he couldn't resist the coquettishness of a beautiful girl?
"Okay, I'll give it all to you. We can always have more anyway. I'm your grandpa, so it's okay to give me some of that wine as a filial gift!"
Gu Xinran had already guessed why Dr. Ling hesitated to speak.
“Of course it’s fine, but I didn’t bring it with me. When my eldest brother and the others arrive in the city, I’ll get the five jars for you.
But this time it's tiger bone wine, which has a better taste and better effects, and is just right for you."
When Doctor Ling heard that there were five jars of wine at once, he smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits and his appetite was about to crawl out of his stomach.
"Okay, as long as it's made by you, it's fine. Our Ranran is so considerate."
Gu Xinran was thick-skinned and nodded in agreement with a smile, "I'm a caring little cotton-padded jacket. Just ask me if you want anything!"
Doctor Ling really likes her energetic appearance.
Gu Xinran carefully packed up the various poisons and saw that each one was clearly labeled with its name, efficacy, usage, and dosage.
I silently praised Dr. Ling in my heart, thinking that he was such a thoughtful old man. I had to add some spiritual spring water to his wine as an encouragement.
Gu Xinran carefully put all the treasures into the backpack (space).
Before I knew it, I realized that the space had expanded by more than 300 square meters. Is this a big space bonus?
This stingy space will not become bigger for no reason. What special thing happened in this short period of time?
If you think about it, the spiritual spring water added to the food can only increase the area by dozens of square meters. During the chat, it was related to Xiao Mingzhan. Something unusual happened. He touched his face three times!
The master is being molested, and it can also expand? What are you going to do with the space? Are you crazy about handsome men?
However, it would not be a loss to touch the face of a handsome man like Xiao Mingzhan.
In the previous life, a top-notch talent like Xiao Mingzhan could not be ordered no matter how much money was spent.
Great! Now there's another way to expand the space.
"Hi, hi, what are you thinking about?" Doctor Ling saw that she was in a daze after putting her things away, with a strange expression on her face, so he reminded her.
Gu Xinran came back to her senses and laughed awkwardly, "It's nothing, I just can't bear to leave you guys, but we have to say goodbye eventually, I'm leaving!"
If Doctor Ling knew that she was comparing Xiao Mingzhan with the male model in her previous life, he would definitely vomit three liters of blood.
Doctor Ling shook his head, knowing that she was just being perfunctory, and did not delve into the matter. He sent Gu Xinran out of Xueyuan and told Xiaoba to protect her.
Gu Xinran also reminded them again to be careful in everything, as long as there is life, there will be no shortage of firewood, and life is always the most important.
After leaving Xueyuan, Gu Xinran and Xiao Ba did not return to the inn, but went straight to the city gate.
I haven't seen them for two days and I'm really worried about them.
On the streets, yamen runners beat drums and gongs to convey imperial decrees and post notices.
The whole city knows about the migration to the south!
Long queues formed in front of the grain stores along the way. The price of grain was reduced by 50%, and each person was limited to purchasing three kilograms.
I heard people talking about it, saying that it was grain sent by the King of Qi at a low price to benefit the people.
Compared with before the drought, food prices are still very high, but it is a blessing to have food to buy at this time.
Many people are packing their luggage and preparing to go south.
In fact, many wealthy families have already left.
The wells in the city are almost dry now. Fortunately, it is winter, otherwise there would not be enough drinking water. People’s lives would be miserable, and sooner or later they would have to embark on a journey of fleeing famine.
When Gu Xinran and Xiao Ba arrived at the city gate, their eyes lit up. The refugees and displaced people gathered here had disappeared, and there was a large notice posted at the gate.
