We just came out of the valley when the morning light touched the eastern sky. The people under the old man of the Ye family searched all night, but there was no news. Ye Mengdie and Shen Jue just disappeared in Youmeng Forest without a sound. .

Ye Mengdie said that she had carefully arranged Youmeng Forest for 15 years, and she knew that it would not be so easy for us to find it.

When I returned to Taniguchi, I saw a person sitting on a boulder with a piece of dogtail in his mouth, holding his chin in a daze. Seeing our figure, he jumped over in twos and took my arm: "Sister, how are things going?"

I rubbed my stiff shoulders, too lazy to speak.

He looked at our faces and immediately understood.

The old man of the Ye family looked at Zihuang Valley, which was once again covered by thick fog, sighed, and walked towards us with a cane: "That's the only way to go. I'm really sorry to implicate everyone here for a whole night."

He purposely walked up to his brother-in-law and said: "Thanks to Mr. Xiao's efforts this time, Mr. Xiao was injured for this, and I am deeply terrified. Please bear the medical expenses for this."

Brother-in-law said: "It's a small matter, no need."

The old man Ye bowed to the end, and said: "This is a small matter, Mr. Yu, but the whole Ye family is very grateful. If I don't do my best for everyone, how can I have the face to meet the ancestors of the Ye family." He looked at the others: "The medical expenses of the rest of you will also be borne by me."

Everyone else said: "The old gentleman is polite."

Old man Ye said again: "Mengdie was injured and couldn't escape too far. After I go back, I will send more people to find her and come back. After they are found, I will definitely punish her severely and prevent her from going wrong."

He walked up to Zhu Danchen again: "I also invite everyone from Dali to follow me back to the residence. I should give you an explanation about Mengdie."

Zhu Danchen looked at the two people around him, and the two agreed, so he said: "That's also good."

The old man of the Ye family got into the carriage, and Zhu Danchen and the others rode away with him, and Taniguchi became deserted for a while.Lingyu led our horse, and on the way back, he said to us: "Mrs. Feng is fidgeting at home, so I had to come and have a look. When I arrived at Zihuang Valley, Fourth Master Feng and the others came out. I don't worry about you. Just stay there and wait."

I hummed casually, and my brother-in-law grabbed the horse's belly and rushed forward.

Ling Yu said: "Brother Xiao, what happened to him?"

I looked at the person and the horse that were soon invisible in front of me, and I twitched my horse's butt: "How do I know?"

He waved his hands behind me and shouted: "Senior sister, you can't catch up..."

When we returned to Feng Mansion, Fourth Master Feng came to greet us in person, and Mrs. Feng also followed to thank us. After the politeness, they asked, "Where is Uncle Xiao?"

I said, "I don't know."

Ling Yu scratched her head and said, "He probably..."

It so happened that a boy passed by with a package of goods, and interjected, "Uncle Xiao, I just saw him drinking in the tavern on Qianyuan Street."

After hearing this, Mrs. Feng said kindly, "It's good that everyone is fine. Miss Azi and little brother Lingyu should go and rest first. After being so busy for a few days, at night, Xianggong and I set up a table in Sinuan Pavilion in the back garden. Banquet, the three of you must come here to reward your face."

Back in the room, Ling Yu was talking behind me, I thought it was too annoying, so I shut him out of the door.I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes. I put my hands behind my head, thinking about what Ye Mengdie said to me, and... my brother-in-law, who fell asleep because of being too sleepy.After an unknown amount of time, I felt a pair of cool hands touch my face in a daze.

I opened my eyes and saw his eyes.

The stubble on his face made him look haggard. I sat up and said, "Where have you been?"

He looked at me for a long time, as if he didn't know me, his eyes were a little loose, and he said, "I..." Before he finished speaking, he fell on me.I couldn't bear his weight and almost fell backwards. When I finally stabilized, I pushed him: "Hey."

He smelled heavily of alcohol, but it was the first time I saw him so drunk.

The door was pushed open at this moment, Ling Yu walked in, saw us, was taken aback for a moment, and said: "...the Feng family has set up a banquet and is waiting for us to go over."

I looked at my brother-in-law, then at him, and said, "Then you can represent us."

Him: "Huh?"

I said, "Can you see him going like this?"

He scratched his head and said, "Okay, okay." Then he turned around and backed out.

It took me a lot of effort to put my brother-in-law to bed and cover him with a quilt.The moonlight was pouring down through the window lattice, and there was no light in the room. I sat by the bed and looked at him.Only when he thinks about Ah Zhu, he will suffer like this.

My eyes fell on his arm, he shouldn't be drinking, he was injured already, drinking must be more serious, I sighed, helplessly took out the wound medicine from the bag, and gently applied it on him.I added Luyu ointment to the medicine, and it feels cool and painless after applying it.I undressed him and there were bruises on his shoulders and chest.

He suddenly grabbed my arm, and I looked up at him: "Are you awake?"

He nodded, looked at me, there was an inexplicable meaning in his eyes, and he said, "Actually, I..."

I lowered my eyes and said, "I have something to tell you."

He said, "Huh?"

I said, "I used to shoot you with a poisonous needle, and wanted you to stay by my side obediently, do you remember?"

He nodded.

I said: "I was wrong, I don't want you to be unconscious, unable to move or laugh, and stay by my side like a wooden man. I hope you can understand me, see me laugh, and be happy every day I know you always think about my sister in your heart, I don’t want to replace her in your heart, you can think about her every day, but you just need to think about it once in a while, Ah Zi is also good, and I will be happy Happy."

These words became more and more hurried, and at the end my heart was beating very hard.

A smile appeared on his face: "What are you talking about?"

I made such a long speech, but he didn't understand it?I looked at him, and the whole portrait fell to the bottom.

He pulled my shoulders, hugged me, and said in my ear: "You are very good and well-behaved, you don't need to compare yourself with Ah Zhu."

His voice was low and soft, and with the smell of alcohol on his body, it made people feel sweet and warm.I rested my head on his shoulder, feeling a little flustered.

"What do you smell like?"

"That box of Luyu Ointment...was spilled."

The next two days were calm, and when I was basking in the sun on the porch, Mrs. Feng came to me.This woman is too enthusiastic, and it will be bad to mess with her.I turned over to leave, but she had already happily called out my name: "Miss Ah Zi..."

I turned around and smiled wearily.

She took my hand: "Miss Azi has a bad complexion, the little girl needs to take care of herself, why don't we go to Biyun Temple to offer incense, just to relax, I think Miss Azi is a very Buddhist person .”

The word "Buddha fate" really puzzled me, and before I could refute, I was dragged away by her.When I woke up, I was already in Biyun Temple.

A woman walked towards him with a young girl on her arm. The woman said, "Daughter, let me tell you that the Bodhisattva spirit in Biyun Temple has only worshiped once, and someone came to propose marriage."

The girl blushed: "Mother, why do you say that, is it because you are afraid that your daughter will stay at home and eat?"

Mrs. Feng handed me a stick of incense and said, "What is Miss Ah Zi doing?"

I looked away and said, "It's nothing, what is... what is it going to do?"

She twisted the incense and bowed earnestly to the Bodhisattva three times, saying: "Tell the Bodhisattva what you want to realize sincerely, and the Bodhisattva will help you realize it."

She looked at me encouragingly, so I had no choice but to imitate her and bowed, saying, "Mmm..."

She nodded encouragingly at me.

Me: "Hmm..." Then I turned my gaze, pointed at the crowd and said, "That person...that person is my acquaintance, I'll go and have a look."

She wanted to pull my sleeve, but was in vain: "Miss Ah Zi..."

While running, I turned around and said, "Madam, you can go back by yourself, don't wait for me."

When I returned to Feng Mansion and kicked open the gate of the yard, I said loudly, "I was taken away by Mrs. Feng, and you didn't save me."

Ling Yu accepted the sword and said: "Well, how can a man fight a woman?"

My brother-in-law looked at me and smiled.

I sat down on the porch, propping up my cheeks.He came over and said, "Okay, don't be angry."

I turn my head away.

He said: "Just now I heard from the boys that there is an annual meeting held in Xijiang Tower these two days. It is very lively. I will take you to eat grilled fish. Do you want to go?"

I turned my head back: "Really?"

The Xijiang Tower was decorated with lights and festoons, creating a festive atmosphere. We sat down at a table near the window and near the water. After ordering, we were about to start eating when Zhu Danchen's handsome face appeared in the crowd.

Disgusted by this face, I put down my chopsticks.

He came towards us, followed by two other people as usual.He briefly told us about the matter of Ye Mansion, and said that since Ye Mengdie could not be found, the matter had to be dropped. Mr. Ye took over the Ye Mansion Shadow Guard, so there should be no worries about the future. Ready to go back.He also specially thanked his brother-in-law for his help.

The brother-in-law said: "Brother Zhu, you are polite. The third brother's business is my business."

Zhu Danchen said: "How about Brother Xiao and Miss Azi returning to Dali with us, and writing a letter to the emperor to report Ye Mengdie's matter to the emperor, and telling him that he met you in Hanyang, he ordered me to invite you to Dali for fun These days, the emperor's personality is active or not, so it is inevitable that he will be restrained in this position, if he can see brother Xiao, he must be very happy."

Without waiting for my brother-in-law to answer, I hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I heard that Dali is a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers."

Ling Yu also said, "I've never been there either."

The brother-in-law said: "In that case, let's go together. Speaking of which, I haven't seen my third brother for a long time."

Early the next morning we bid farewell to Fourth Master Feng, he couldn't stay, so he recruited the servant next to him, and the servant presented a box of gold and silver, he said: "I hope Brother Xiao will accept this."

The brother-in-law said: "Fourth Master Feng is being polite, this is unnecessary."

Fourth Master Feng said: "Brother Xiao has helped us and my wife so much, I really can't repay them. A little gold and silver are just to show my heart, Brother Xiao won't accept it, I just think you look down on me."

My brother-in-law had no choice but to accept it.

Fourth Master Feng cupped his hands and said: "The mountains are high and the rivers are long. I hope Brother Xiao still remembers me as a friend. When he thinks about it, he will find me for a drink."

Brother-in-law said: "Definitely."

Zhu Danchen and his party were waiting for us at the gate of the city, we rode up to meet them, and then went out of the city together.When everyone left one by one, I pulled the rein and looked back at the street.

Brother-in-law said: "What's wrong?"

I looked at him: "Nothing, let's go."

I have a feeling that someone is watching me, right in the crowd.

The author has something to say: Brother Duan is finally coming out to make soy sauce~~(=^_^=)
