Chapter 284: What Does He Mean!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After crossing the mountains of Immortal County, everyone’s horizons widened.
They saw a vast and endless grassland covered in scattered snow.
The feeling of vastness was refreshing.
Xiaobai ran excitedly while Chu Tianbao took Stinky for a spin.
Stinky’s cheerful laughter spread across the land like a silver bell. Everyone’s exhaustion from the travel was relieved by his cute smile.
Sheng Huaixuan said to Bai Wutong, “After passing through this grassland and a desert, we’ll be able to enter the Southern Frontier.”
Bai Wutong was surprised. “There’s another desert? How long will it take?”
Sheng Huaixuan said, “About two weeks, but there are many people in the team. It might take three weeks.”
Bai Wutong frowned. “There are so many people. Is there a water source in the desert?”
Sheng Huaixuan had never been to the Southern Frontier personally. ‘The caravan said that there are wells along the way.”
Hearing that there would be wells, Bai Wutong was relieved.
From time to time, one could see grazing Syrians on the grassland. Their cattles were fat and strong, and they looked delicious.
Seeing so many people migrating towards the southern frontier, the Syrians took the initiative to walk over, wanting to exchange their cows and sheepskin for something.
They did not lack meat, but they rarely could buy fine rice, flour, cloth, and silk.
The feeling of being surrounded by a fire on the grassland, eating roasted whole sheep and drinking milk wine was extremely beautiful. “I want a sheep,” Bai Wutong said. “Show me the leather, too.”
The Syrians quickly presented the leather.
Bai Wutong had taken a fancy to several soft lamb skins. If she used them to make a carpet and sofa cushions, it would definitely be comfortable and beautiful in their future new home.
The wool on the lamb was woven into threads and could be used to knit sweaters, towels, hats, socks, and so on.
Bai Wutong planned to knit a sweater for Stinky and Chu Tianbao each. She also bought some soft wool of the best texture from the Syrians.
They would be camping there. The Syrian would go back and gather wool as she had requested. They would be able to deliver it to her before they left the next morning.
When Sheng Huaixuan found out that she was going to buy wool to knit, he smiled and said, “Sister-in-law should have asked me just now.”
One of the goods that Yu Suisheng’s caravan went to the Southern Frontier to buy was cheap wool. They would transport the wool to the south and find skilled female workers to process them into expensive textiles before selling at a high price.
Sheng Huaixuan said that there was no need to buy wool. There would be processed thread sent to her home.
Bai Wutong smiled and said. “It’s fine. I’ve already bought them. In any case, the carriage can fit them in. Besides, I have nothing to do in the carriage, so I can make a few cute dolls for Stinky with wool.”
Hearing that she was going to make a doll, Sheng Huaixuan’s eyes lit up. His intuition told him that this was another good thing.
After Bai Wutong made her pick, Sheng Huaixuan negotiated the price.
Ultimately, there were very few caravans heading to the Southern Frontier. Sheng Huaixuan was familiar with the price that the Syria people expected. He only used three baskets of food and three sets of cotton cloth to exchange for what Bai Wutong wanted.
After buying so many things, the total value of the things she exchanged for was less than 10 taels of silver.
Any woman would like to buy.
Cui Lingyi had her eyes on more things than Bai Wutong. Once her gaze landed on something, in more than two seconds, Sheng Huaixuan would gesture to the servants and note down all these things.
After Cui Lingyi had chosen and asked for the price, the Syrian said with a smile, ‘The transaction has been completed. ‘
With that, he took the initiative to move the things into the carriage for her.
Cui Lingyi was a little confused. How had the transaction been completed? She had yet to ask them what they wanted to exchange.
The Syrians carried a colorful robe into the carriage. Cui Lingyi asked in surprise, “I didn’t choose this?”
The Syrian also shook his head strangely. “But it has been exchanged for.” Cui Lingyi asked again, “Who did you complete the transaction with?”
The Syrian looked towards a certain direction. “Him.”
Cui Lingyi also looked in the direction he was looking. Yu Suisheng was reporting to Sheng Huaixuan.
Sheng Huaixuan smiled gently from time to time, as if he was very satisfied.
Yu Suisheng listened to Sheng Huaixuan. If Yu Suisheng had made a deal for her, it would definitely be Sheng Huaixuan’s idea.
What Sheng Huaixuan meant... A complicated expression flashed across Cui Lingyi’s eyes, and she couldn’t help but smile.
As if they had telepathy, Sheng Huaixuan turned around and their gazes met in the air.
Cui Lingyi did not expect him to notice. She hurriedly retracted her gaze. In her panic, her heart could not help but beat wildly.
Sheng Huaixuan left Yu Suisheng and took the initiative to walk over. “Yunling has disturbed Madam Cui many times. This is just a small token of appreciation. I hope Madam Cui can accept it. ‘
Although she had married someone once, it was only a fake marriage to avoid entering the palace.
Cui Lingyi realized that she had fallen for Sheng Huaixuan and was feeling uneasy. However, Sheng Huaixuan’s words were like a bucket of cold water that splashed on her, making her expression turn cold.
It turned out that he was just grateful to her for taking care of Stinky.
Cui Lingyi took a while to calm down before forcing a smile. “Master Sheng, you’re too polite. Thank you, Master Sheng.”
She tried her best to restrain herself and unknowingly became overly distant. Sheng Huaixuan met her red eyes and was stunned. ” Madam Cui?”
Cui Lingyi waved her hand. “The sand has entered my eyes. I’ve embarrassed myself in front of Old Master Sheng.”
She turned around and was about to get into the carriage when Sheng
Huaixuan suddenly handed her a pine-scented handkerchief and said gently , “I’ll go find Doctor Gu to get you some medicine.”
He was always so considerate that it was easy to misunderstand.
Cui Lingyi became more at ease with herself. She stared at the handkerchief that was still in front of her and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. ‘There’s sand in my eyes. What medicine can I use?”
Sheng Huaixuan smiled like a spring breeze. “It’s easy for people to become red-eyed and dry because of the sandstorm. It’s also a type of illness. Perhaps Doctor Gu has a way.”
He made sense. Cui Lingyi felt a little more relaxed and could even joke. “I think Old Master Sheng will definitely be the most outstanding doctor if he learns medicine.’
Sheng Huaixuan suddenly fell silent and looked at her with his gentle eyes, as if he was telling his beloved that he only wanted to be her personal doctor, making Cui Lingyi’s heart beat violently again.
She fled into the carriage in a panic, her ears already red.
Sheng Huaixuan’s eyes flashed across her mind, and she couldn’t help but mutter hatefully, “What does he mean?!”
Cui Lingyi finally calmed down. After a while, Sheng Huaixuan’s gentle voice sounded again through the carriage. “Madam Cui, this is an eye drop developed by Doctor Gu. If you still feel discomfort in your eyes, drip a drop into your eyes and the symptoms will ease.”
There was no movement in the carriage. Sheng Huaixuan handed the eye drops to Cui Lingyi’s maidservant and lowered his voice. “I’m sorry to disturb Madam Cui’s rest.”
Cui Lingyi clenched her fists, feeling that even the most profound arithmetic was not as difficult to understand as Sheng Huaixuan.
She wished she could open the carriage curtain and ask him in person what he meant. But the restraint that a woman should have did not allow her to do this..
