Quick Wear: Another day of being criticized for falling in love at first sight

Chapter 758: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 19

Xiao Yunzhou blinked, and before he had time to digest the scene, his mouth subconsciously opened and accepted the piece of osmanthus cake handed to him by Miaomiao.

It had a sweet taste. To be honest, the craftsmanship in the small town was very average, but because it was handed to him by her, Xiao Yunzhou actually thought it tasted amazing.

Then, before I could digest the taste of the osmanthus cake, the little girl picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks and put it to my mouth.

The salty and fragrant taste mixed with the spicy flavor of star anise melted on the tip of the tongue. It was obviously the most ordinary taste, but now Xiao Yunzhou felt that it was more delicious than the secret venison made in the imperial kitchen.

It turns out that whether something is delicious or not also depends on the person who eats with you.

No matter how delicious the food is, if the people around you disgust you, it will taste just average.

No matter how ordinary something is, it will taste delicious because it brings you warmth and happiness from the bottom of your heart.

Miaomiao didn't care what Xiao Yunzhou was thinking. She fed the poor little thing with her right hand and stuffed osmanthus cake into its mouth with her left hand. She did this with both hands without affecting her eating at all.

Now is the time for growth, and the boy is as young as a pig.

"It might taste a little rough for you, but it's better than what I make."

Miaomiao relied on this two-pronged approach and finally ate the braised chicken, braised beef and osmanthus cake in one meal.

Although Xiao Yunzhou looks like a slender young man, he is also very good at eating.

Miaomiao took out the soup she had cooked earlier and each of them drank a bowl, then she sighed in comfort.

He also began to have the energy to tell Xiao Yunzhou about what happened in town.

"When I was walking out of town today, I saw someone holding your portrait and asking passersby questions. He was wearing the clothes of a yamen runner, but I knew he was not a yamen runner from the town.

These people are quite brazen.”

Miaomiao leaned back in her chair and spoke casually, but the meaning of her words was very clear.

She knew that what Xiao Yunzhou said was false. At least he was not kidnapped and fell down by some bandits, otherwise who would chase him so relentlessly?

Only someone with some power could have someone pretend to be a yamen runner without fear of being caught.

The officials will not investigate unless the people report it, and in a small town like this, nothing is known about it.

Xiao Yunzhou said "hmm" softly. He was not surprised at all that those people wanted to kill him.

Of course, he also absolutely believed in the girl in front of him, or perhaps was willing to give her trust to him.

He had already taken revenge in his previous life, making those people die miserably. Now, if he wanted to get closer to some warmth, he would still take revenge and still would not give them the chance to harm others again.

But she is the warmth he wants to be close to, like a family member...

Yes, relatives.

"I've carved your mark everywhere you can see it in town, and I've also carved it on the doorstep of your home. It'll just depend on who gets there first."

Miaomiao stretched and said without much concern.

Seeing that Xiao Yunzhou didn't say anything, she even turned around and looked at him, her eyes confident and bold.

"Don't worry, I can't say anything else, but I could beat more than ten of those three I encountered today.

If someone really comes, I can try my best to protect you, at least give you time to escape.

There is also a cellar at home. I made it so that no one can see it. It looks like flat ground. It is right at the edge of the yard. If there is no other way, I will hide it in the cellar.

Anyway, I will keep you alive."

After Miaomiao finished speaking, she stood up. She still had to go to the stove to put away the glutinous rice that she had finally gotten and the other food.

This saves those skinny mice from getting any benefit.

"After I recover..."

Xiao Yunzhou suddenly spoke, successfully making Miaomiao, who was about to walk out of the room, stop.

He originally wanted to ask if he could go with him.

But it was obvious that after Miaomiao stopped, she said it without thinking.

"You can go on your way, but just leave some money for your lifeline. A few dozen taels is not too little, and a few hundred taels is not too much. Of course, if you have enough money, I would prefer a few hundred taels."

Miaomiao remembered that after the original owner saved Xiao Yunzhou, the other party gave the original owner several hundred taels of silver.

If all this money was given to her, she couldn't imagine how happy a little girl she would become in this village.

Miaomiao's tone was as sharp as usual, but she didn't notice Xiao Yunzhou's lowered head and his fingertips turned white from pinching the wood.

"I mean,"

Xiao Yunzhou took a deep breath, the sunlight lingered on his face, highlighting his extraordinary bone structure.

"If one day I send someone to pick you up..."

Miaomiao simply sat back on the stool she had been sitting on before, crossed her legs and looked at him, like a baby waiting for him to speak.

But obviously, Xiao Yunzhou's words stopped under her gaze.

"You don't have to feel sorry for me, I am very happy in these mountains.

I can't help you with anything. You must have your revenge to take and your own path to follow.

Otherwise, why would you send someone to pick me up?

If I were to cook for you, I'm afraid my cooking skills wouldn't be enough to make it into your kitchen."

As Miaomiao was talking, she suddenly started laughing. The clear laughter was like spring water in a mountain stream, but it made Xiao Yunzhou's heart sink.

In his previous life, although Ling Miaomiao saved his life, he never thought of rescuing her from such an environment. That was her life, what did it have to do with him?

What he has always adhered to is what Miaomiao believes now. He has to exchange money for saving his life, and he has to face his future. He even has a hint of inexplicable coldness towards her.

Because she had made her life so miserable, and there was almost nothing but numbness in her eyes, so to improve her life, all she needed was enough money.

They weren't his family, and if the secret guards hadn't arrived quickly, he might have gotten hard in no time...
