During the recuperation period, Ye Zhenge never got tired, and read "Chizhou Zhilue" in his spare time during the day. "Chizhou Zhilue" consists of four volumes, each volume has ten thousand characters, and records more than a hundred overseas place names, directions, and knowledge of various countries. It is the notebook of Feng's ancestors. Is there any excuse?

He leaned on the couch to watch, Xi Xiu was sitting at the table writing and drawing, muttering: "Those who float and unravel will sweat..."

In order to take better care of Ye Zhenge, Xi Xiu went to Wu Han to learn scriptures from time to time.Wu Han saw that he was very interested, so he generously donated his collection of medical books. With this opportunity, Xi Xiu began to study seriously.

"Those who float and unravel will surely sweat; those who count and untangle will be able to eat." Ye Zhenge corrected softly without squinting.

"I'm sweating..." Xi Xiu repeated.

After a while, Ye Zhenge went to drink tea in his cloak, and when he glanced down, he saw that on the densely written paper, all the words whose pronunciation had been corrected were next to small crooked homophonic characters.

With a knowing smile, he sat beside Xi Xiu, Ye Zhenge spread his fan and shook it lightly.This fan was lost to "Fu Di" at the beginning, thanks to the younger sister who entrusted someone to return it a few days ago.

Taking a sideways look at him, Xi Xiu frowned and said, "Doctor Wu said that the festering wound cannot be covered, so take off your clothes."

"I'll be embarrassed in broad daylight." Ye Zhenge replied with a smile.

Xi Xiu said coolly: "The first time I saw you, you took off only a pair of obscene pants in front of me. Is it too late to be embarrassed now?"

Coughing twice, hiding half of his face behind the fan, Ye Zhenge muttered softly: "How long ago did I still remember..."

"Don't you want to?" Xi Xiu snorted softly.

Ye Zhenge looked at him sincerely and said, "How dare you, what's more, I don't feel any embarrassment with the young man accompanying me."

Ye Zhenge was not allowed to dress because he was afraid of delaying the healing of the wound. As for Xi Xiu herself, she simply couldn't stand the heat...

Suppressing a laugh, Xi Xiu stretched out her hand to untie his clothes, but suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the house, guessing it was a servant delivering water, Xi Xiu went to open the door shirtless.

He stared wide-eyed inside and out, all startled.

Feng Xiaomei played in the shipyard since she was a child. In the scorching summer, it is normal for men to show their chests and backs, but Xi Xiu's tight and tender white flesh made her feel inexplicably depressed!

How can Xi Xiu understand a girl's mind?He turned sideways to give way.

Feng Xiaomei's pretty face changed, and she hastily handed out the fruit basket as if to leave.

Pulling her back, Xi Xiu returned the fruit basket, grabbed a piece of clothing to put on, and went straight out of the house.

Seeing Xixiu walking away, Feng Xiaomei was in a dilemma for a while, she heard the question from inside the house while hesitating, she couldn't help compose herself, and stepped in.Moving to the table and gently putting down the basket, Feng Xiaomei stared at her toes cautiously, and said in a low voice, "Cousin, I'm here to apologize to you, it's all because I'm too willful..."

Ye Zhenge smiled gently, and greeted: "Sit down."

Shaking her head, Feng Xiaomei politely declined his offer.

Seeing that the girl was silent for a while, Ye Zhenge broke the silence and said, "If it wasn't for my relationship, uncle wouldn't have tested the waters earlier, and you wouldn't have been in danger. I should apologize to you."

"I am..." Xiaomei Feng stammered, "I did it on purpose—"

"Let the past be the past."

Hearing this, Feng Xiaomei's expression suddenly changed, she raised her eyes to look at him, and said: "This sentence is too easy to say!"

"I don't hate the Ye family for annulling the engagement, and I don't hate you for letting down my sister, but you knew she was in poor health, but you refused to even write a letter to her in her last days, and you didn't come here to pay homage until your sister passed away. When I asked you why you didn't reply, do you still remember your answer?" Looking at him fixedly, little girl Feng's eyes turned red, "It's exactly the same as today, let the past go... my sister is only half a month old, yes You have become a 'thing' of the past..."

He opened his lips and was silent for a while, Ye Zhenge said softly: "I am the one who is sorry for Yan Ying."

"Did you save me because of this guilt?"

"Does it matter what I think?"

"Of course it's important, but you never say it! Because you don't care about other people's feelings at all," Feng Xiaomei said coldly, "You searched for ships when you were in distress and needed supplies urgently, but Xixiu refused to return to the island and knelt down in front of Dad for a small boat If it weren't for his insistence, you would have been in danger... Cousin, there are people who will die for you, and people who are willing to give up their dignity for you, what about you? Have you ever seen them in your eyes or in your heart?"

After saying that, without waiting for the other party to speak, Feng Xiaomei left without looking back.

When Xi Xiu entered the room, he saw Ye Zhenge sitting in front of the table in a daze, and all the fruits in the fruit basket were taken out and placed all over the table.

Walking forward and following his line of sight, Xi Xiu squinted slightly because of the light reflected from the bottom of the basket, and after a closer look, it turned out that the thing was the silver bracelet on Feng Xiaomei's ankle.Without the familiar bell sound, it’s no wonder that I didn’t hear who the visitor was… But this bracelet means a lot to her, why…

After staring at it for a moment, Xi Xiu picked up the bracelet and carefully stroked the bell adorning it.

This thing appeared before him, and it was an inseparable part of Ye Zhenge's 25 years of life. Although it can't be said that he doesn't mind, the person who accompanies him now is himself after all...

"Xi Xiu," interrupting his thoughts, Ye Zhenge looked up at him slightly, and said, "I have something to ask you..."

Feng Xiaomei's secret fortress is hidden deep in the cliffs by the sea. The narrow entrance can only allow one person to pass through, but there is another world inside.

There are dots of green light swimming around the reef, like fireflies flying in the water, occasionally sliding past the girl's feet as if to appease her sadness.

Just as she was in a daze, a footstep stopped beside her from far and near.

Neither of them spoke.

After a while, Feng Xiaomei gently opened her lips: "Don't you blame me?"

"What's your fault?"

"I put my cousin in danger, if it wasn't for saving me..."

"Saving you was his choice, and he doesn't regret it, why should I blame you for him? Besides, he is safe and sound, let the past pass."

Startled, Feng Xiaomei smiled lowly, and the laughter was a bit lonely.

At this moment, the man suddenly stuffed something into her palm.

Xiaomei Feng was stunned at first, and then the water rippled with her bare feet, causing the green light to escape in all directions. The suddenly darkened light hid her expression that she didn't want to know: "I know that my sister died of illness, but I can't forget the pain she suffered when she was alive. My cousin is against me, I hope my cousin will remember my hatred and always remember my sister, but my selfishness almost killed my cousin..."

"No matter what happened at the beginning, you are punishing yourself now, and the bracelet was left by your sister, so the meaning has long been different."

"Did your cousin teach you this sentence?"

"no!"

"Then I really misunderstood you. I thought you were a clumsy person."

"Ha! I never knew how to make a woman happy."

"Oh... so you want to make me happy?" Feng Xiaomei winked at the person playfully by gathering the light on the soles of her feet again.

"Did I succeed?"

"Barely enough." Feng Xiaomei waved her hand, turned her head and looked into the bottom of the water, "I can see that you like your cousin very much, and I can guess that he must want you to come."

"Half guessed right, I came not only for him, but also for you."

"Xi Xiu, thank you..." The word love is clear to the onlookers, but the authorities are willing to indulge in it. Over the years, Xiaomei Feng has gradually understood it, so she couldn't help smiling and jokingly said, "Fortunately, my cousin is a man. If you are a girl, you Can a fool compete with 'Master Feng'?"

Xi Xiu really imagined it for a while, the more she thought about it, the more she lost her mind, and finally became a little annoyed: "How will you know if you don't try? My kung fu must be much better than 'him'!"

"I'm just joking with you, don't take it seriously," Feng Xiaomei stood up, smiling gradually and said, "Today I will cook, you help, and learn a few of the girl's signature dishes by the way."

One is to celebrate Ye Zhenge turning danger into good luck, and the other is to thank Wu Han for his wonderful rescue. On behalf of her father, Feng Xiaomei personally prepared a table of meals, including fruit wine, which was also brewed by herself, and served on the table in consideration of her cousin's injury. Except for the crispy small yellow croaker, they are all light vegetarian dishes.

There was laughter and joy during the banquet, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

The Feng family's capacity is like a river, and three or five bowls is no problem. On the other hand, Xi Xiu and Wu Han are both red-faced, and their alcohol capacity is really shallow.

Looking at Ye Zhenge and smiling, Feng Xiaomei fetched a teacup and poured tea, persuading Wu Han to drink less wine; Ye Zhenge slowly picked up vegetables and put them into Xixiu's bowl.

It was rare to be lively under the knees, and Feng Jing felt relieved and bitter at the same time.He has always wanted to make up for Feng Yuan and make up for Yan Ying's regrets, but he hasn't lived to the point where his eyesight is dim;

"Father, I'll drink with you." Feng Xiaomei raised a bowl to her father.

"Okay!" Feng Jing gulped down his drink and laughed loudly, "Who says women are inferior to men? My husband's daughter is no worse than a man!"

Feng Xiaomei hugged her father and said coquettishly: "If you don't make me happy, I will serve you for the rest of my life."

Feng Jing patted her, and said lovingly: "Silly girl, you will be your father for the rest of your life, how will your future husband-in-law agree?"

The girl who used to act rashly in the past showed a blush on her face, and secretly glanced at the man sitting next to her.

When my sister was alive, it was Brother Ang who cared and took care of her sister. After my sister passed away, it was Brother Ang who comforted and accompanied me. This tenderness permeated her heart unconsciously.Now that she has broken free from the shackles of many years, in the years to come, she only hopes to relieve her father's worries and labors, and to quietly wait by Brother Ang's side, waiting for the day when he is willing to open his heart.

Feng Jing knew that his nephew was going to leave. After all, his surname was Ye, so he had no reason to force him to stay, so Feng Jing sent them on their way home during the white dew season.Before leaving, Feng Jing repeatedly told him that no matter where he was in Tongliang, his relatives would be waiting for him.Feng Xiaomei also took off a basket of red bayberry as a practical gift, and her wrist was shining with silver light when she said goodbye.

Standing on the bow of the boat, Ye Zhenge suddenly recalled a scene long ago: Feng Xiaomei pulled Feng Yanying while walking and turned her head to make a face, Feng Yanying covered her lips and smiled lightly, and a pair of silver bracelets jingled between her hands and feet.

The chirping of gulls gradually faded away, and the hotness replaced the dampness.

In order to shorten the return journey, Ye Zhenge resolutely chose the waterway. Although the courage is commendable but the reality is cruel, it not only makes Xixiu angry and distressed, but also makes the unsightly woman comment behind her back: embarrassment is not so severe!He listened to all directions, his face was dull, and when he arrived at Jinyuan, he obediently changed to a carriage.

The wheels ran over the bumpy road, making Xi Xiu drowsy, Ye Zhenge hooked his long arm, and he leaned on the other's shoulder, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Hearing the small snoring, Ye Zhenge's lips curved slightly, and his eyes returned to the scroll. "A and B Classics of Acupuncture and Moxibustion" is a medical book presented to Xi Xiu by Wu Han, but every time Xi Xiu reads two or three pages, his eyelids will fight and the effect is comparable to that of soothing incense. Naturally, this book is also taken over by Ye Zhenge to pass the time.

Just as he was enjoying a moment of leisure, for some unknown reason, the carriage stopped suddenly after a horse neighed, and at the same time there was a thunderous roar from outside the carriage!

"Silver Moon Halberd! I had a hard time finding you!"
