Chapter 43
Nozawa City was similar to Nagahara City. During the non-war period, even though 23,000 troops had just entered the city, it did not affect the people in the city at all.
Those who should be selling vegetables were selling vegetables, and those who should be shouting were shouting. It was a peaceful scene.
On the street, Yun Zong looked at the bustling crowd and heaved a sigh of relief. As expected, compared to the ferocious or bloodthirsty enemies, he preferred to see the relaxed expressions on the faces of the commoners.
He even saw a few children playing with cloth bags. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile.
Yu Lan followed beside him and watched with interest. She didn't say anything and just followed him to wander on this street where there was a war a few days ago.
The two of them didn't say anything. They walked side by side for a long distance. Suddenly, when they passed by a stall selling cosmetic powder, Yu Lan's eyes lit up.
She didn't avoid it and directly pulled Yun Zong's arm, pointing at the cosmetic powder stall. Her meaning was very simple.
Let's go take a look.
Yun Zong glanced at her and nodded."
"Alright."
Yu Lan's eyes curved into crescents as she took the initiative to pull Yun Zong to the front and back of the stall. Looking at the rouge and powder on the table, as well as some jewelry made of worthless crystals, her eyes blossomed with some brilliance.
"Lieutenant, I don't have any money on me.”
She rolled her eyes and said coquettishly.
Yun Zong paused, then took out a few knife coins from his waist. Yu Lan held it in her hand and chuckled. She chose a purple crystal pendant, a pair of earrings, and a box of red rouge. She happily gave the money and then took the initiative to pull Yun Zong to the next shop.
The path that Yun Zong had taken to return to the camp had become a place for women to go shopping. Yu Lan had dragged him around Nozawa City for more than two hours, which could have been completed in less than an hour.
In the end, Yu Lan pulled Yun Zong to a restaurant with the remaining knife coins. They ordered a pot of turbid wine and a plate of soft beans. They sat by the window on the second floor and actually planned to drink a cup.
When Yun Zong saw Meng Tian again today, he vaguely remembered the days when he had just transmigrated. He felt rather emotional. He let her do whatever she wanted.
Yu Lan first poured a glass of wine for Yun Zong, then poured a glass for herself.
Then, he sniffed the fragrance emitted by the soft and rotten beans and said to Yun Zong with a smile,
"It smells so good."
Yun Zong looked at the weather outside. Although the autumn wind was rustling, the golden color on the tree was also very beautiful. His face was no longer as calm as before, and he finally revealed the vitality of a young man.
"Did you just abandon your Junior Sister in the Official Manor?”
Yu Lan paused for a moment, and then her face revealed a hint of unhappiness. She said angrily,
"What's wrong? Do you like Xiaoyi that much?"
Yun Zong shook his head and took a sip of the wine.
Great Qin's wine was very different from the wine of the later generations. Because the fermentation technology was not mature enough, the wine tasted like beer, and it was even slightly lighter. Of course, it was not that there was no hard liquor, but the price was exorbitant. It was definitely not something that a small city like Nozawa City could have.
Seeing that he did not answer, Yu Lan looked at Yun Zong angrily. Her hands seemed to have turned even redder because her master was in a bad mood.
Then, she tasted the wine in the glass and said,
"Between Xiaoyi and me, who's prettier?"
Hearing her words, Yun Zong took a look and asked with a frown,
"Why do you ask?"
"You don't want to answer? Alright, let me change my question. If I and Xiaoyi both fall into the water, who will the lieutenant save first?”
“……”
Looking at the enchanting woman who was interested, Yun Zong frowned and asked again,
"Is this question very interesting?"
" But I want to know!"
Although the woman was acting coquettishly, Yun Zong could see the seriousness in her eyes. Hence, he thought for a moment and said,"
"I won't save anyone."
Yu Lan was stunned. She blinked as if she was digesting Yun Zong's answer.
After a long time, she looked at Yun Zong with a smile that was not a smile. She drank the wine in her cup and did not ask Yun Zong for an answer.
A pot of wine and a plate of beans.
The two of them sat for about an hour. When Yun Zong saw that it was almost time, he said,
"Let's go."
"Yes."
On the way back to the camp, Yu Lan fiddled with the crystal earrings that she had already put on, then looked at the only crystal pendant left in her hand. He rolled his eyes…
"Lieutenant, is it nice?"
Yun Zong turned his head and saw that Yu Lan had unknowingly placed the pendant that should have been hanging around her neck on her forehead. Moreover, she had deliberately let down a strand of her long hair on her forehead, allowing it to flutter in the wind. Although the light purple crystal pendant wasn't anything expensive, it gave her an indescribable sense of beauty.
Seeing Yu Lan looking at him expectantly, Yun Zong nodded.
"It looks good."
"Then…I'll wear it like this in the future, okay?”
"Yes."
"How about matching it with your favorite black socks?”
“……”
"Hehehe. Aiya, I wonder if I'm dressed like that young man who's pouring his heart out to me ~"
Yun Zong turned around and left. Yu Lan followed him, and a string of laughter streaked through the air.
