Picking up the driver who was recuperating in Xi'an, the group rushed to Lijia Village where Yanli lived since childhood.To go to the house of Yanli's family at the foot of the mountain, there was only one road through the village where horse-drawn carriages could be run. Although it was a bit ostentatious, they didn't stop and went straight through.

Yanli stood at the door of her house, feeling a little emotional, but in just over half a year, she actually traveled to many places, which was completely unimaginable to Yanli, who thought she would get married and have children here...

Gently pushing the door open, Yan Li walked in and looked at the familiar small courtyard. Every object could arouse her memories, until her eyes fell on the animal traps scattered in the corner.

Yan Li walked over and picked up the animal trap full of spikes, looked at it for a moment and turned to ask Mo Er: "How long can the blood on this be seen?"

Mo Er took it and observed it for a while, then shook his head, "After a certain period of time, it won't be visible to the naked eye."

After hearing this, Yanli stood up silently, and walked into her bedroom first. The naked eye could see that some things in the room were not in the same arrangement as her habit. In addition, the animal traps had been used and thrown in the corner at will. If you find it and use it, you will definitely take it away, but now they are there, and they are almost certainly used by Buyao.

Then Li Mochou, who was traveling with Buyao...maybe lived in her room.However, Yan Li went to Buyao's house next door to have a look at the situation inside before she was basically sure.

Hua ManLou couldn't see her, so she just followed behind Yan Li. At this moment, she stopped and asked, "How is it? Is it your friend?"

"It should be." Yan Li was a little puzzled, "It's just that this place should be a safe place to live. I don't know why they left again."

"You haven't seen each other for a long time, so naturally you don't know what happened to them, but it may be a good thing that there is no news, and the bad guys can't find them."

Huamanlou's consolation was also justified, Yanli sighed, "If you go out again, you must leave someone in Baihualou, so as not to miss them next time they go looking for me..."

Hua Manlou moved his ears, turned his head and looked outside the door, "Ali, we have guests."

Yanli walked out suspiciously, and saw Zhongyi's mother, Yu Xiuniang, walking here slowly. Seeing her sick face, she immediately walked over to support her: "Auntie, why are you here?"

Yu Xiuniang grabbed her hand in surprise, and said excitedly: "Ali, is it really you? I heard from people in the village that there are two carriages coming here, so come and have a look..."

Yan Li disagreed and said, "Don't come here next time, what if there is danger? If I come back, I will definitely visit you."

"I came here because I saw that this carriage looked familiar." As she spoke, Yu Xiuniang pointed to the huge carriage of Hua's family.

When Yanli left Lijia Village with Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou, she took this carriage, so when Yu Xiuniang said that, she felt relieved and said with a smile: "Auntie, my family is hot There is no water, why don't we go back to your place, let's have a chat?"

Yu Xiuniang nodded with a smile, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the noble young master who had never come out of the courtyard, and asked a little cautiously: "Ali, who is this young master?"

"This is Huamanlou, my friend." Upon hearing Yanli's introduction, Huamanlou greeted Yu Xiuniang in a gentle manner.

Yu Xiuniang returned the gift, remembered something, and asked, "But the young master who helped take Zhongyi to the capital?"

Yan Li nodded, stopped her from thanking her, turned around and asked Hua Manlou: "I'm going to sit at Aunt Yu's house for a while, Hua Manlou, will you go with me?"

"convenient?"

Yu Xiuniang immediately said: "Convenience, convenience, why don't you eat at Auntie's place today, Ali? You haven't eaten dishes made by Auntie for a long time, right?"

"We have a lot of people, you are working too hard." Yan Li explained how many people there were in total, and after Huamanlou went to the courtyard to explain to Mo Er and the others, she helped Yuxiu Niang to walk into the village, by the way Talk about Zhongyi, "I went to the capital some time ago and met Zhongyi. He is very good, so don't worry."

Yu Xiuniang didn't expect to hear news about her son from Yan Li. She was so happy that she kept asking about Zhongyi's situation. When she got home, she said in embarrassment: "You come to see me, just ask about Zhongyi's situation." Something happened."

Yan Li said indifferently: "He is so far away, it is normal for you as a mother to feel distressed and miss him."

"Ali, you look more mature." Although Yanli used to be more sensible than other girls in the village, she would occasionally do naughty things with Buyao, but now Yu Xiuniang looks at her like an adult... ...Thinking of what happened to her, he sighed, "When Zhongyi passed the Juren examination, his classmate sent a can of good tea, and I'll make it for you and the young man."

Yanli waited for Aunt Yu to go out, observed the furnishings in the main room, and found that there seemed to be a lot more than before. Thinking about what Aunt Yu said just now, it was probably because Zhongyi was admitted to Juren, and the change of status naturally brought A little foreign matter.

When Yu Xiuniang came in again, she saw Yanli was looking at an ornament on the table in the middle of the hall, and she said to You Rongyan: "Zhongyi was admitted to Juren, and many people came to give gifts. As a woman, I don't understand and dare not accept it. , and I was afraid of offending others, so I went to ask the village chief to help me, so I took a little."

"Auntie, I'll do it myself." Yan Li took the teapot in her hand, first poured a cup for Aunt Yu, then poured another cup for her and Huamanlou, then looked at her face and asked, "How do you look?" Doesn't look good, but sick?"

"I'm sick, it's okay." Yu Xiuniang unconsciously looked at Huamanlou, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that it was beyond the reach of ordinary people. She wanted to say something, but she was too embarrassed to ask in front of him.

Seeing this, Yan Li put down the teacup and said to her: "Auntie, let's go to your room and have a few words?" Then she said to Hua Manlou: "You drink tea here first, I'll be back in a while."

Hua Manlou smiled slightly, and raised the hand holding the teacup to signal her to go easy.

Yu Xiuniang took Yanli's hand and went back to her room, looked carefully for a moment before she said intimately: "The longer you grow, the more beautiful you are, that son and you are...?"

Yan Li smiled at her, acquiescing but didn't say it directly.Seeing this, Yu Xiuniang nodded knowingly, then patted her hand and said comfortingly: "You will live well in the future, and your parents' spirits in heaven can feel at ease."

They have all gone to other worlds, and the friendship in this life may have been forgotten long ago. The so-called "spirit in heaven" is naturally just to comfort those who are still in the world, and she has long thought about it.

Seeing that Yanli didn't speak, Yu Xiuniang hesitated for a moment, and said apologetically, "Maybe you don't know, but Auntie has always felt guilty. When your parents had an accident, I didn't want Zhongyi to get too close to you. Prejudice, it's just... I'm so scared, I can't sleep day and night thinking that he will be in contact with any danger... But you still care about Zhongyi so much, I really feel guilty thinking about it..."

Yan Li listened patiently all the time, seeing tears flashing from the corner of her eyes, she handed over a handkerchief, without any complaints in her words: "You have been kind to me since I was a child, and I also treat Zhongyi and Buyao as relatives, and of course I don’t want them to be in any danger, I can understand, don’t blame yourself too much, take care of yourself.”

When she said this, Yu Xiuniang's tears slid down directly, and Yan Li hurriedly helped her wipe, but the more she wiped, she could only divert her attention and said, "Stop crying, if you let Zhongyi know that I have If you come back and make you sad, he will be angry with me."

Yu Xiuniang laughed through tears, and said to her son, "Zhongyi is the most good-tempered, how could he be angry with you, I'm afraid he will be bullied outside!"

"I won't be bullied. I asked Hua Manlou to take care of him." When she calmed down, Yan Li asked her about Qi Biyao, "Has he returned to the village? Xiang, the other is to see if he has returned."

Yu Xiuniang thought about it carefully for a moment, and said uncertainly: "I just heard people in the village say that they seem to have seen someone who looks like him, but no one has spoken to him, so I'm not sure, but one day just in autumn, my yard Suddenly there was a burden in the bag, which contained some money and other things, and didn’t leave a word, so I didn’t dare to move it.”

Yan Li looked at the package that Aunt Yu said, the money was not much and there was nothing special marked on it, after thinking about it, she took out 200 taels from her sleeve and put it together with the money and stuffed it to her.

Yu Xiuniang refused, "I don't have much money at home, so take it back quickly."

Yan Li stuffed it into her arms, and said resolutely: "You can use it, but be careful not to attract people's eyes. We don't know when we meet next time, so just treat it as my junior's wish."

After speaking, Yan Li walked out of her room and told Hua Manlou to go back.Yu Xiuniang was not in good health and couldn't catch up, and she couldn't run outside the yard to shout, so she could only sigh and go back to the house to collect the money.

The two of them slowed down when they were far away from Zhongyi's house. Hua Manlou asked her, "Have we finished talking?"

"I've said everything that needs to be said. As for the rest, Zhongyi will definitely ask the village chief to take care of Aunt Yu before she leaves."

"Then..." Hua Manlou hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly heard a female voice calling Yan Li behind them.

When Yanli turned her head, she saw that it was the daughter of Aunt Taohua in the village, who seemed to be called Li Zhihe.Yanli didn't play with girls in the village very much before, and she didn't know why she called her to stop.

And Li Zhihe ran in front of the two of them, stared at Hua Manlou from a close distance and stared blankly for a moment, and immediately pinched his waist in embarrassment after recovering, and said to Yan Li: "Why are you back!"

Yan Li felt baffled, but remembered that the girl seemed to like Zhong Yi, so she turned to Hua Man Lou and said, "You go back first, I'll go back after a few words with her."

Hua Manlou nodded, turned and left gracefully.Li Zhihe looked at his back and couldn't help being in a daze again, but then she was dissatisfied with Yanli, "Who is that man? How could you treat Zhongyi like this?!"

Yan Li blinked, puzzled: "Why did I treat Zhong Yi?"

"Zhongyi treats you so well, yet you have moved on so quickly, and you...also..." Li Zhihe thought about it carefully, and said one word, "It's too flirtatious!"

Suddenly being scolded by an unfamiliar person as "sexy", Yan Li was not angry, but asked amusedly: "I and Zhongyi have never been in the relationship you think, oh yes, I was still with you some time ago. Jingcheng met him, and there is a very beautiful person beside him, do you know what it means?"

Li Zhihe's eyes were red, but she tried not to shed tears, and said stubbornly: "I don't have wishful thinking, I want to get engaged too, just to hold the injustice for him, since it's not your empathy, you can go."

A little girl looked so aggrieved in front of her. Although she was not very cute and cute, Yan Li still did not leave immediately, but persuaded: "Since you are going to be engaged, you should live well. You are also a very good girl. Why don't I give you an engagement gift?"

"Who wants your things." Li Zhihe wiped away her tears, turned and ran away.

Standing there, Yan Li really didn't know what she was trying to express in all the turmoil, but the young girl's feelings were sincere and brave. In retrospect, it was another good memory left to her by Lihua Village.

In the afternoon, Yanli took Huamanlou to pay homage to her parents, talked about them in a rambling manner, paused, looked at Huamanlou, who was standing tall and tall with her back to her, and said in a low voice: " This is the person I chose for myself, I will have my own life in the future, and I may not come back often."
