But I don't dislike Xiao Mo, so why do I need to be so particular?

Xiao Mo always had some strange insistences.

unconsciously

Two more years have passed.

In winter, Bai Ruxue would go up the mountain to hibernate.

Each time Bai Ruxue wakes up from hibernation, she becomes thicker and longer, but her human form remains unchanged.

One day, Bai Ruxue went to the river to wash clothes.

I don't know what the village's aunts and uncles said to Bai Ruxue.

After Bai Ruxue returned, she kept staring at Xiao Mo.

He stares at me while I'm eating, and sneaks a peek while I'm hanging up the laundry.

With nothing else to do, she sat down in front of Xiao Mo and watched.

"Miss Bai, is there something you need?" Xiao Mo put down his book, picked up the tea on the table, and took a sip.

"Mmm." Bai Ruxue nodded. "Xiao Mo, when are you going to marry me?"

"Cough cough cough," Xiao Mo choked quite badly, "Miss Bai, what did you say?"

"Tell me, when are you going to marry me?" Bai Ruxue asked.

"Why do you ask that, Miss Bai?"

"Because Aunt Li told me to ask!"

Bai Ruxue straightened her willow-like waist, and the snow-capped mountains and seas of fat cast shadows on the stone table.

"Aunt Li said that since we are both unmarried and live together every day, and are both adults, why don't we get married? Aunt Li said that when her son was your age, his grandson was already old enough to run errands."

“Well…” Xiao Mo thought for a moment and explained, “Miss Bai, two people can only get married if they like each other.”

"But I like you." Bai Ruxue blinked. "Don't you like me?"

Xiao Mo smiled and asked, "So, what is our relationship to Miss Bai?"

“Friend,” Bai Ruxue blurted out.

Xiao Mo shook his head: "But Miss Bai, just being a friend isn't enough."

"What kind of liking is enough?"

Bai Ruxue was dizzy and confused. So, there are different kinds of things you like?

"Well," Xiao Mo pondered for a moment, "it's hard to say, but if Miss Bai understands one day, she'll know whether she wants to marry me or not."

"Then when I finally understand, I'll still want you to marry me. Will you marry me then?"

Xiao Mo paused for a moment, then looked tenderly into the girl's peach blossom eyes:

"it is good."

Chapter 35 Given by my wife

There are still two weeks until the provincial examination.

Xiao Mo and Bai Ruxue stood at the entrance of the village, each carrying a small bundle on their backs.

In front of the two of them stood the village chief and his family.

"Village Chief, are you really not going to give it a try this time?" Xiao Mo asked the village chief.

The village chief was also a scholar, so naturally he could participate in the provincial examination.

"Forget it, forget it." The village chief shook his head. "I'm already fifty years old, so I won't bother. Even if I were to take the exam, it would just be a waste of travel expenses. I'd rather buy Ying'er some nice clothes. Xiao Mo, do your best on the exam, and we'll be waiting for your good news."

"It's okay if you don't pass the exam. Look at your village chief, he's been taking the exam for decades and hasn't passed. As long as you want to take it, you can keep taking it. If all else fails, you can open a private school like your village chief and make a living."

Aunt Chen said to Xiao Mo.

Although Aunt Chen was a woman, she knew that some people would take the exams until they died and still not pass the provincial examination.

For example, one's own husband.

"I know, Aunt Chen. I'm just doing my best." Xiao Mo nodded with a smile.

"You know that's good, but don't try to kill yourself if you don't do well on the exam. You still owe my family a lot of food."

Aunt Chen rolled her eyes at Xiao Mo, then pulled Bai Ruxue over, as if giving her some instructions, and handed her a face towel.

Half an incense stick later, Xiao Mo bowed and took his leave, then boarded the carriage.

Bai Ruxue drove the carriage, carrying Xiao Mo to the prefectural capital.

"Did Aunt Chen say anything to you?" Xiao Mo asked, sitting down next to Bai Ruxue.

"Aunt Chen said I'm too good-looking, and there are a lot of spoiled brats in the county town, which might cause me a lot of trouble. So she told me to be careful, and once I'm in town, I must wear a face mask and never leave your side," Bai Ruxue said truthfully.

"Mm." Xiao Mo nodded.

Aunt Chen's considerations are indeed reasonable.

My current status as a mere scholar is indeed insufficient to protect her.

However, if something happens, Bai Ruxue should be fine.

Perhaps Bai Ruxue herself didn't even know that she was already a cultivator at the Dragon Gate Realm.

If she took one more step forward, she would have formed her Golden Core.

Her talent for cultivation is just as exaggerated as Jiang Qingyi's.

So it's considered good if an ordinary spoiled brat doesn't get devoured by her.

just

Xiao Mo glanced at the woman's profile.

Qingyi is decisive and ruthless; she will never let herself suffer a loss.

But as a demon, she was far too kind.

This is a good thing and a bad thing.

Six days later, Xiao Mo and Bai Ruxue entered the Jiangnan Prefecture.

"Candied hawthorns for sale! Two coins a skewer of candied hawthorns."

"Please come in, guest officer."

"Are you here for a meal or to stay the night, sir?"

"Young master, it's been so long since you've come. I've missed you terribly."

Upon entering the city, the sounds of vendors and people from all walks of life calling out their wares filled the air, and pedestrians came and went on both sides of the street.

There was a scholar dressed in a blue robe.

There was a young master from a wealthy family.

A young woman was leading a little girl with her hair in a bun.

Looking at everything in the prefectural capital, Bai Ruxue's eyes suddenly lit up.

Bai Ruxue, who comes from the mountains, goes to Shiqiao Village at the foot of the mountain the most. She has never even been to Qingshan City, let alone the state capital.

After storing the carriage, Xiao Mo led Bai Ruxue to an inn.

Scholars who participated in the provincial examination stayed at inns, and there were special prices for them, which weren't too expensive.

After putting down their luggage, Xiao Mo led Bai Ruxue through the streets of the city, admiring the prosperity of the human race.

Bai Ruxue looked around.

Everything in the city was new and exciting to the girl.

"Xiao Mo, I want to eat candied hawthorn!" Bai Ruxue's fair and delicate little hand grasped Xiao Mo's wrist and shook it.

Xiao Mo gave two coins and bought a candied hawthorn. Bai Ruxue slightly lifted her veil and took a bite.

The initial sweetness made the woman's eyes light up.

However, after taking a bite, the sourness of the hawthorn made the woman squint.

The old man selling candied hawthorns was also stunned.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman.

Bai Ruxue walked forward while eating hawthorns, occasionally holding up a candied hawthorn to Xiao Mo's face: "Xiao Mo, you should eat some too."

Xiao Mo shook his head, indicating that he did not like candied hawthorn.

Bai Ruxue didn't understand; the candied hawthorns were clearly delicious.

"Selling steamed buns! Selling steamed buns!"

From one side of the street came the sound of baozi (steamed buns) being called out.

Xiao Mo stopped and looked at the steamed bun shop.

"Xiao Mo, do you want some steamed buns? I'll go buy some for you," Bai Ruxue said.

"No," Xiao Mo shook his head, "I just remembered someone."

"Alone?" Bai Ruxue asked curiously.

"It's nothing." Xiao Mo smiled and shook his head, continuing to walk forward.

Bai Ruxue didn't take it to heart.

As Bai Ruxue passed by Yunyan Pavilion, she saw scantily clad women pulling men into the building, practically clinging to them.

Bai Ruxue asked curiously, "Xiao Mo, what kind of place is that? Why are these women dressed so scantily and dragging men inside?"

Xiao Mo glanced at it and explained, "That's a brothel."

What is a brothel?

"A brothel is... a place for sexual intercourse between men and women."

"Matters between men and women? What are those? You're a man, and I'm a woman, so can we do that?"

"."

"Xiao Mo, tell me, tell me!"

"Don't ask too many questions, young lady." Xiao Mo gently tapped Bai Ruxue's head.

Bai Ruxue rubbed her head, pouted, and muttered, "I'm clearly a grown woman!"

However, Bai Ruxue was not annoyed. She continued to walk forward and took Xiao Mo's wrist: "Xiao Mo."

"what happened?"

"From now on, if you have any issues with men or women, you'll have to come to me~"

Xiao Mo's brows twitched, unsure of what to say.

For the next few days, Xiao Mo read books in his room at the inn.

Although the streets were bustling, Bai Ruxue felt it was rather dull without Xiao Mo by her side.

Soon, the provincial examination began.

Xiao Mo is going to the Imperial Examination Hall to take the exam.

"The Qi State provincial examination will last for three days. During these three days, Miss Bai, please remember not to wander around, understand?"

Before leaving, Xiao Mo gave Bai Ruxue some instructions.

"Don't worry, I'll be very obedient. Xiao Mo, you have to do well on the exam~ It's okay if you don't do well. Aunt Chen said that only the Wenqu Star can pass the imperial examination, and you're not the Wenqu Star."

"Thank you so much." Xiao Mo tapped Bai Ruxue's head. "I'm leaving."

Xiao Mo turned and entered the examination hall.

Before entering the examination hall, a body search was required, and the clerk groped Xiao Mo's body vigorously.

Xiao Mo felt that he was either serious and responsible, or he came from Sichuan.
