The little sweetheart dressed as the ghost king

Chapter 37 Breakfast

Xiji was very conflicted. If he told the truth, he always felt a little embarrassed. After all, the wound medicine was placed in that kind of place, and it would make him feel embarrassed to mention it again.If he didn't say it, he would feel sorry for the kindness of the Night King.

When the Night King came out and looked at the mask on his face, Xiji couldn't speak again. This incident was always too shameful.

Xiji sat on the bed, thought for a long time, looked at the Night King who was approaching, and suddenly felt that the air around him became strange, and finally mustered up his courage, and said to the Night King: "Thank you, King. medicine."

Ye Lin glanced at him, without any unnecessary reaction, and responded lightly: "Yeah."

After agreeing, he picked up the cloth towel in his hand and wiped his hair.

In the quiet room, there is only the crackling sound of the oil lamps lit as the sky is getting darker, so it looks extraordinarily quiet.

Sitting there after finishing speaking, Xiji felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit too quiet. At this time, seeing the Night King wiping his long hair, he didn't know what he thought, so he blurted out, "Let me do it for you. "

Hearing what he said, the Night King stopped what he was doing, glanced at him, then handed over the cloth towel in his hand, found a seat and sat down, as if he was being served by Xiji.

Xiji looked at the cloth towel handed to him, then glanced at the Night King who had sat down with his back facing him, licked his dry lips, and walked forward bravely.He didn't know why he said that suddenly just now, but now that the words have been spoken, it's not appropriate to take them back.

Reaching out to stroke the Night King's long hair, he found that it was softer than he had imagined, and it was nothing like the Night King's terrible temper.Xiji thought about how people could be so contradictory, with such a bad temper, but with such soft hair.

Xiji lightly wiped the Night King's hair and touched the long hair in his hands. Xiji suddenly thought that even if the two of them often take a bath together, these trivial matters will be done by servants afterwards. This time he went out without a servant, and he would never have the chance to touch the Night King's hair.

The room was quiet, and Xiji's wiping movements were also extremely focused. The Night King could even feel that the little brother behind him was carefully wiping his hair. The movements were rusty, but serious enough.

Fortunately, the weather is not too cold now. Even without using other tools, Xiji finally dried his hair after changing a few clean cloth towels.

"King, it's done." After touching it, she felt that it was almost done, so Xiji put down the things in her hand and whispered to the Night King.

Ever since Sigi said that he was going to brush his hair, the Night King, who had been sitting there without moving, slowly turned his head and looked at the cautious Sigi for a while, as if he was observing something.After a while, when Xiji's goosebumps were about to pop out, he said slowly: "Go to bed early, we have to hurry tomorrow."

"Hmm." Xiji always felt that the Night King looked at him a little strangely just now, but he couldn't tell why for a while, so he could only go to bed with the Night King to sleep.

Maybe it was because of the day's journey, Xiji fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow, and even the original desire to worry about whether he needed to serve the Night King was forgotten.

When the sound of steady breathing came from beside him, the Night King, who was supposed to rest with his eyes closed, slowly opened them, turned his head to the inside, looked at Xiji who was hiding in the quilt, and stretched out a double The bony hand slowly touched his face, and finally the hand barely stopped on his plump lips.

The next day, Xiji woke up very early. The first time he woke up, he felt the pain in his legs. Xiji, who had experience, immediately knew that it was all because of riding a horse for a day yesterday.

Thinking of this, he sighed helplessly. He didn't know how many times he complained about the pampering of this body.

Glancing at the gray sky outside, Xiji got used to it for a while, then glanced at the Night King who was still sleeping beside him, and carefully got up without touching his body.

After Xiji left, the Night King slowly opened his eyes, and there was no sleepiness in those clear eyes.

Xiji came to the kitchen with a limp, and the servants who got up early to make breakfast were surprised when they saw him. They were obviously surprised that Xiji appeared here so early.

Seeing the surprised crowd, Xiji smiled slightly and said, "I want to borrow some kitchen tools to make something, isn't it convenient?"

The steward was a little surprised that Xiji appeared here so early, but when he heard what he said, he immediately agreed. He didn't forget how difficult the old man was to serve yesterday, and this brother's good cooking skills. If it was done by this brother, they would not be harshly criticized.

Seeing that the steward agreed, he didn't say anything more, and started to get busy after finding some ingredients he needed.

Xiji's speed is very fast. First, he took a crock to put brown rice and glutinous rice mixed in a certain proportion, then added water and let it cook slowly, and then went to prepare other things.

Others saw the delicate and weak little brother in front of him, swiftly cutting the meat and vegetables into small cubes, and when the meat cubes were all cut, the porridge that was cooking on the fire just came out. Noisy, gurgling.

Xiji put down the diced meat and some difficult-to-cook dishes first, waited for it to rise again, put it aside and estimated the time, then put it on the fire to boil again, then brought it up again, repeated Three times, the porridge gave off a strong aroma.

Seeing that it was almost done, Xiji picked it up and put it aside for the last time, then took out the kimchi that he had marinated a while ago and put it in a bamboo tube, poured out half of it, and cut it into cubes that were easy to serve.

When he finished the kimchi, the porridge was almost stewed, so he asked someone to take it out together, and when he got outside, he saw the Night King sitting there upright waiting for the meal.

As soon as Siji came to the hall, the Night King's eyes moved to his face.Just for a moment, the sharp eyes moved to the things they were holding in their hands.

Seeing this, Xiji stepped a little faster, came to the Night King, put the breakfast he made in front of him, and said with a smile: "My lord, shall we eat?"

The Night King looked up at him, and nodded slightly, agreeing with what he said.

Seeing that King Ye nodded, Xiji hurriedly opened the earthen jar, filled two bowls of porridge, gave one to King Ye, and put the other in front of her.Then he put the kimchi that could be cut in front of the King of the Night, and said with a smile: "My lord, try it, this is a new side dish I made recently.

Ye Wang glanced down at the sour-flavored bamboo shoots in front of him, and reservedly picked up a chopstick and put it into the steaming porridge. Fragrance, and the sweet and sour taste of kimchi.

Seeing that the Night King didn't speak, but the movements of his hands were not slow, Xiji knew that he was very satisfied with this morning's breakfast. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised while drinking the porridge. He is still very happy to join in the show.

The two happily finished their meal under the envious and jealous eyes of others, and they rushed in from outside. They were dressed as official servants who were traveling, and they were shocked when they came in and saw so many people. The Night King, who was in the main seat, still had a bit of hesitation on his face, as if he was wondering whether he should come in or not.

In the end, the thin one among them tidied up his messy clothes, walked towards Xiji and the others, and said respectfully, "My lord."

"Mm." Ye Lin looked at the two people who were very winking, and he didn't feel any disgust, so he greeted them as a greeting.

Seeing this, the two didn't say much. After saluting, they went to look for the manager here. It seemed that they were going to rest here.

The steward was obviously familiar with those two people, and when he saw them, he led them upstairs and arranged a place for them to live.

When the steward came down again, he hesitated again and again when he saw a group of people packing up their equipment and preparing to leave, and finally came to Xiji and Night King who were standing aside, and said respectfully: "If your lord wants to go out of the city, I hope you can do more." careful."

The Night King looked at him coldly, and didn't have much reaction, but Xiji was a little curious why the steward suddenly mentioned this kind of thing, and asked a lot, "Is there anything outside this city?" ?”

When the steward heard his question, he first took a look at the Night King standing next to Xiji, and seeing that he didn't dislike his talkativeness, he looked at Xiji and said respectfully:

"My lord, I don't know that the journey from here to us is less than half a day away, and we are going out. After passing through that pass, it is no longer the territory of the Night King, but the territory of other princes and kings."

Xiji didn't know this, and he didn't even know that they were going to leave this territory. He turned his head and glanced at the Night King who said nothing, and then moved his gaze to the steward, signaling him Go on.

The steward sighed, and said with emotion, "There have been frequent droughts in recent years, and the crops have not been harvested well. Those like us here are fine, and the taxation is not heavy. But other people are not so lucky, at least not We are lucky. Excessive taxes, coupled with bad harvests, the people there live very hard, so..."

When he said this, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "That's why there are a lot of barbaric acts. I hope that the adults and young masters will pay more attention when they pass by."

After listening to it, Xiji finally understood what was going on, and nodded, expressing that he would remember it.

After the few people finished talking, the luggage over there was also packed, and the group got up and left.

Watching the back of the group of people leaving, the steward let out a long sigh of relief, and finally sent the big Buddha away, so there is no need to be so worried in the future.

Sitting on the horse with the Night King, Xiji kept thinking about what the manager said just now, but he didn't quite understand what he meant by barbarism. Could it be that he was blocking the way again?If it is really a robbery, there are so many of them, there is no need to worry at all.

"What's wrong?" the Night King's voice sounded behind him.

Xiji shook his head, then hesitantly said: "My lord, what did the steward say just now?"

The Night King looked down at the person in front of him, and said indifferently, "No matter what happens, staying by my side will surely keep you safe."
