Chapter 90: Gu Yanjiu

A Lu Ge looked at his smiling face and said unhappily: "Second Elder Brother, if Xu Xiang wants to kill me, do you think I can sit here and talk to you? Besides, I ate more than I brought back. If you don’t want to eat, then you don’t need to eat. I will give it to my Eldest Brother and Third Elder Brother. You can just watch them eat later. Hmph!"

After finishing speaking, A Lu Ge started to pack the food boxes with the picnic mat again. Seeing that his youngest brother was unhappy, A Lu Zhi said calmly, "Second elder brother is just worried about you. Since you said that eating these... Unique foods are not dangerous, let’s eat them. Thank you, Xiao Xiong."

Hearing his fourth elder brother’s calm voice, A Lu Ge snorted and said, "Hmph! Since my Fourth Elder Brother has said so, then I will let you taste this delicious food. But I have to leave some for my Eldest Brother and my Third Elder Brother."

After speaking, he opened the food boxes and let his two elder brothers taste it. That night, A Lu Yu and A Lu Zhi ate the most delicious food in their lives.

While the three brothers were eating, drinking and having fun, Xu Xiang pulled her consciousness out of her own space. She opened her eyes and found that Nalan Tuya hadn’t come back yet. Looking at the closed door curtain, she thought for a while, got up and walked out of the tent.

Xu Xiang looked around and found out that there were not many people around there. When she was still looking around, those people also noticed her. Soon, a woman approached her with a little girl.

Xu Xiang looked at the little girl and remembered that she gave the little girl a marble tea egg this morning. She looked at the woman and the little girl with a faint smile on her lips. She waited for them in front of the tent, while observing the reactions of the others around her.

When the woman and the little girl stood in front of her, the woman bowed slightly to her and said, "Thank you, Young Lady, for giving my daughter the egg this morning."

Xu Xiang smiled at the little girl, then looked at the woman and said, "It’s just an egg. I like children, so you don’t need to thank me."

The woman stared at Xu Xiang for a moment, then looked at her daughter, and said, "Nuan Nuan, quickly say thank you to this Elder Sister."

Nuan Nuan nodded to her mother, then looked at Xu Xiang again. She smiled, showing her cute dimples, and said obediently, "Thank you, Elder Sister."

Xu Xiang is in a great mood after receiving a thank you from such a cute little girl. She squatted down and smiled at Nuan Nuan.

"Mhm. You are welcome." She said gently.

The woman watched the interaction between Xu Xiang and her daughter calmly. Seeing Xu Xiang speaking softly and treating Nuan Nuan gently, she watched them in silence. After talking with Nuan Nuan for a while, Xu Xiang used her thigh bag as a cover and took out a handful of ice crystal chocolates from the space.

She opened her palm and showed the ice crystal chocolate to Nuan Nuan. With a smile on the corner of Xu Xiang’s lips, she asked, "Do you want some chocolate?"

Nuan Nuan looked at the beautiful crystals on Xu Xiang’s palm and asked, "What is chocolate? Are these chocolate?"

Xu Xiang picked up a piece of ice crystal chocolate, took a bite, and showed the remaining half to Nuan Nuan. Looking into the little girl’s eyes, she said, "Here is an ice crystal chocolate. It’s sweet, and delicious. Would you like to try it?"

Nuan Nuan looked at the remaining half of the broken ice crystal chocolate on Xu Xiang’s fingers, and nodded. She picked up one ice crystal chocolate and ate it. As she chewed the ice crystal chocolate, her big round eyes widened.

Nuan Nuan looked at Xu Xiang and spoke with her milky voice. "This beautiful stone is sweet and delicious."

Hearing her words, Xu Xiang chuckled, and put the remaining ice crystal chocolate in Nuan Nuan’s hands. Gently pinching the little girl’s cheek, she said, "Since you like it, then I will give the rest to you. Remember, not every crystal is edible like mine. You can only eat these."

Nuan Nuan nodded and obediently said, "Um, I will remember Elder Sister’s words. Thank you for the chocolate, Elder Sister."

Xu Xiang touched her head and smiled. She hummed an answer: "Mhm."

Standing up, Xu Xiang looked at Nuan Nuan’s mother and asked, "You came to me, not just to thank me, did you?"

Nuan Nuan’s mother looked at Xu Xiang calmly. Even when Xu Xiang guessed her real intention, she didn’t show any reaction.

Nuan Nuan’s mother lowered her eyes and said, "Young Lady is very smart. Thanking you for the egg is only part of the reason I came to you."

Seeing that she was too calm, Xu Xiang thought to herself: ’This woman is not simple. I wonder why she approached me in front of other people. Neither she nor her daughter would benefit from associating with outsiders.’

Looking at Nuan Nuan’s mother curiously, she said, "Since you are here, tell me your other reason why you came to see me despite knowing that the people of the Xiuluo tribe are afraid of outsiders."

Nuan Nuan’s mother raised her eyes and looked directly into Xu Xiang’s eyes. The two looked at each other for a while, and she said, "My name is Gu Yanjiu."

Hearing her name, Xu Xiang smiled at her and said, "You are not from the Xiuluo tribe. Why are you here?"

Gu Yanjiu smiled at Xu Xiang and said, "Before I married my husband, I lived in the imperial capital city of the Bei Wei Empire. My father was the former crown prince of the Bei Wei Empire, and people call me County Princess Chang Le."
