Chapter 171 Eating melons costs money

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yingchun became anxious and asked Fu Chenan how the "Cordyceps for plastic basins" plan was going.

Fu Chenan had been playing games for most of the day and had just put his phone down to reflect on "why he was addicted to games". When he heard Xiao Yingchun asking about medicinal herbs, he immediately became interested.

"Why don't you come with me to take a look?"

Xiao Yingchun paused and said, "Go to Yongzhou City?"

Fu Chenan was afraid that Xiao Yingchun would be scared, so he explained, "Yongzhou City is now under our jurisdiction. There are troops stationed there, so it is relatively safe."

Xiao Yingchun thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

She was quite curious about how Cordyceps sinensis was changed into a plastic basin...

How can we not witness this historic moment? !

Besides, let’s go riding!
Previously, you could only ride for five minutes for 20 yuan in the scenic area...

I can ride enough this time!
The two agreed to go there early the next morning, and Fu Chenan hurried back to prepare.

The next morning, at just after five o'clock, Fu Chenan came as agreed, personally took Xiao Yingchun's hand, and led her to the back door...

Practice makes perfect.

When Xiao Yingchun appeared in the general's mansion again, she was no longer afraid of going to the wrong place and meeting people, and she could dress herself except for her hair.

Fu Chenan prepared a hairdresser to help Xiao Yingchun comb her hair.

Soon Xiao Yingchun walked out of the room and stood in the yard, feeling refreshed.

Fu Chenan heard footsteps and turned around, and saw a girl wearing neat light blue skirt and pants. His eyes lit up.

It turns out that Miss Xiao looks so good in riding clothes!

Xiao Yingchun saw the surprise in Fu Chenan's eyes and couldn't help but smile.

The two men came to the stable, where the groom was waiting with a large chestnut horse.

"In order to save time today, we have to ride horses, which will be a bit tiring. Are you willing to ride together?" Fu Chenan looked at Xiao Yingchun.

Xiao Yingchun nodded: "No problem."

Fu Chenan handed over a veil hat, and Xiao Yingchun took it and put it on.

Fu Chenan stretched out his hand: "Let's go!"

Xiao Yingchun smiled and placed her hand in Fu Chenan's palm.

Fu Chenan held her fair and delicate hand, and turned it around, letting Xiao Yingchun hold the saddle, and shouted, "Get up!"

He grasped Xiao Yingchun's slender waist with both hands and lifted her up.

Xiao Yingchun went up immediately as if riding on a cloud.

By the time she reacted, she was already sitting on the saddle, and Fu Chenan was sitting behind her. He stretched out his arms to grab the reins and held Xiao Yingchun in his arms.

There was a handle in front of the saddle. Fu Chenan motioned for her to hold the handle tightly. She squeezed her legs together, and the chestnut horse ran out...

The veil hat blocks the wind, sand and sunlight, but it cannot block the coolness of the early autumn morning.

Xiao Yingchun couldn't help but lean into Fu Chenan's arms.

Fu Chenan was prepared. He threw his thick cloak in front of Xiao Yingchun and said, "Wrap yourself up."

Xiao Yingchun hurriedly grabbed the edge of the cloak, held it tightly, and pushed herself into Fu Chenan's arms.

There is a warm chest behind me and a furry cloak in front of me... I am not cold! Not cold at all!

Xiao Yingchun squinted her eyes comfortably, and her whole body softened.

An hour later... it hurts! It hurts like hell!

After all, she was a girl who had never ridden a horse properly. Even with Fu Chenan helping from behind, the insides of her legs were rubbed so hard that they were burning with pain!
It must have peeled off!
Xiao Yingchun felt a little regretful: the price of eating melon was too high!

"Hiss..." Xiao Yingchun took a breath of cold air.

The horse under him immediately slowed down and soon stopped.

Fu Chenan's voice sounded above his head: "What's wrong?" Xiao Yingchun: "...My legs may have been rubbed raw..."

Fu Chenan slapped his forehead and said, "I didn't think it through..."

He dismounted, carefully carried Xiao Yingchun off the horse and placed her on a rock beside him to sit.

Xiao Yingchun sat with her legs apart, looking unhappy.

Seeing this, Fu Chenan hurriedly turned his back to Xiao Yingchun, unzipped his clothes, pulled out the cotton lining underneath, and without hesitation tore off two large pieces and handed them to Xiao Yingchun.

"Take this, make it into a bandage, and tie up the painful area..."

Fu Chenan was afraid that Xiao Yingchun didn't understand, so he tore off two more strips of cloth and stretched out his legs to demonstrate...

Xiao Yingchun felt embarrassed and touched: It's just... so real!
Fu Chenan took off his thick cloak and covered Xiao Yingchun's head with it: "You do it yourself, I'll keep watch for you..."

There are many people traveling on the road from Taizhou to Yongzhou City, most of whom are merchants.

Xiao Yingchun took advantage of the space created by the cloak to take off her pants first, and sure enough, the inside of her pants was rubbed red and broken.

Because Fu Chenan's demonstration was so intuitive, Xiao Yingchun learned quickly.

She sprayed herself with some disinfectant alcohol, waited for it to dry, then applied some anti-inflammatory ointment, wrapped her thighs with Fu Chenan's underwear cotton cloth, and fixed it with a cloth belt...

When Xiao Yingchun crawled out from under the cloak, she had become a tomboy again.

"Okay, let's go." Xiao Yingchun had a smile on her face, but her hair was a little messy due to being rubbed by her cloak.

Fu Chenan felt inexplicably soft-hearted and wanted to ask her to go back to the Space-Time Supermarket directly, but there were endless passers-by, and many of them knew Fu Chenan. Fu Chenan did not dare to transform himself in public.

"It will take another two hours to get there. If you feel uncomfortable, tell us and we can stop and rest."

Two hours...

Xiao Yingchun gritted his teeth: "No problem!"

I chose the path to eat melons myself, and I have to finish it even if my legs get bruised!
Another hour passed...rest and eat.

Two more hours...rest and drink water.

We set out at six in the morning, and by the time we arrived at Yongzhou City, it was already one in the afternoon...

Looking at the outline of Yongzhou City from afar, Xiao Yingchun, who was exhausted from traveling, breathed a sigh of relief: We're finally here!
The gate of Yongzhou City was usually only opened a small gap, with chevaux de frise placed on both sides, leaving only enough space for one carriage to pass through.

Dozens of soldiers stood at the city gate, methodically checking the passes and identities of passing pedestrians and vehicles, maintaining order and ensuring safety.

The soldiers on the city wall saw Fu Chenan from afar and ran towards the city: "It's General Fu! General Fu is coming!"

As Fu Chenan approached, there was soon a commotion at the city gate.

Two long lines of soldiers suddenly came running and stood along the city gate.

Then, the city gate was opened with a whoosh.

The two teams of soldiers lined up in neat rows, and shouted in unison in loud voices: "Welcome Miss Xiao!"

"Welcome Miss Xiao!"

Xiao Yingchun's body trembled, and he looked at the team extending all the way into the gate in shock.

This is... directed at me?!
Came specially to greet me?!
The thunderous cheers made the people of Yongzhou City stop what they were doing and look at the young man and woman who were riding on the same horse.

They all know General Fu, but who is this Miss Xiao?

Why can I ride on the same horse with General Fu?

Why did the Marshal make such a big scene and call so many soldiers to welcome her? !
