People say that they are more timid in their hometowns, and Wei Lai has been away from home for more than seven years, so naturally he is not exempt from vulgarity. So with all kinds of complicated feelings, until the group entered the Qizhou Mansion and arrived at Changning Town on the second day, Wei Lai remembered that Miss He followed her home, and she didn't know how to explain He Zhi's identity to her mother.

Mother, this is my fiancée, come back with me to see you--if she dares to say that, her mother will not take a big broom and drive her out with Miss He, but she will definitely roll her eyes and show her the next moment she hears the news!

I've been away from home for seven years, and I just came back and made my mother stunned or something, isn't it? But if you don't say that, if you shirk it as a friend, Miss He can't say it. With the intelligence of the other party, I am afraid that with some clues, I will soon be able to detect the wrong......

Suddenly, I found that I must have had a brain pump before I agreed to He Zhi to go with me!

Wei Lai was a little embarrassed, thinking about it, the idea of confessing her identity that she had raised earlier soon came back to her - now He Zhi left Beijing with her, and she was already unfamiliar with life here, although she believed that Miss He would not leak this secret, but after all, it was related to her net worth and life, and she still needed to be guarded against. If it was in her hometown, He Zhi wouldn't be able to immediately tell any important people about it, and with a buffer for a while, the other party should be able to accept it...... Right?

"General Wei, General Wei......" Xi Qiu shouted several times in a row, but Wei Lai turned a deaf ear and didn't even raise his eyelids. So the little girl pouted angrily, turned her head and complained to her own lady: "Miss, she ignores me." ”

He Zhi was a little amused when she saw it, and lifted the curtain to take a look, but she saw Wei Lai twisting her eyebrows and wandering, and she didn't know what she was thinking. She blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "Hometown timidity, is Wei Lai homesick?" ”

Wei Lai was still struggling with whether to confess her identity, and she always felt that it seemed to be a good time to confess at this time, so she didn't even hear Xi Qiu call her. At this time, as soon as He Zhi spoke, she suddenly came back to her senses, and then turned her head to look over.

When he raised his eyes, he met He Zhi's face with a smile, but Wei Lai only felt his heart sink for some reason, and the smile that was originally ironed made people a little more irritable and uneasy for no reason. When it was over, she just nodded indiscriminately and said: "I haven't come back for many years, and it's difficult to even receive letters on the battlefield in Northern Xinjiang, and I don't know if my mother is okay now." ”

He Zhi saw Wei Lai's abnormality and absent-mindedness at a glance, which no longer seemed to be something that could be described by the words "hometown timidity", so a little doubt finally rose in her heart. However, she is a smart person, so she naturally won't speak rashly, so she just said: "It's a pity that it's late today, otherwise if we hurry up a little later, maybe we can rush to Changning Town today." ”

Wei Lai's home is in Changning Town, and it is actually only half a day's journey from where they are at the moment. This distance is not short, but it is even less long to say, but after He Zhi's reminder, it seems to have an inexplicable sense of urgency.

"It's getting dark, and the road is not easy to walk, so let's wait until tomorrow to get on the road. I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry......" Wei Lai's mind was still a little confused, so when he said this, his tone couldn't help but be a little urgent, and the obviously strange reaction was not only He Zhi, but even the coachman and Xi Qiu noticed that something was wrong.

"I was in such a hurry before, why am I not in a hurry now? General Wei is kidding! The little girl in the carriage obviously hadn't forgotten her dissatisfaction with being ignored before, so she couldn't help muttering.

Along the way, Xi Qiu's perception of Wei Lai actually rose in a straight line, especially after experiencing the bandits, she only felt a sense of security when she looked at General Xiao Wei again. However, she is not very old, and He Zhi's tolerance towards her subordinates has not completely erased the arrogance in her temperament, so she will still complain, but the voice of muttering is not loud, and this complaint is not unreasonable, He Zhi, who is close, and Wei Lai, who has good ears, have heard it, but their thoughts are different.

At this time, their group is in Qizhou City, if they are not in a hurry, it is naturally easy to find a place to stay in this still prosperous city. Wei Lai decisively pretended not to hear Xi Qiu's muttering, only coughed lightly, and said directly: "Okay, let's rest in this city tonight and set off early tomorrow morning." At noon, it's time to ......."

As she spoke, Wei Lai's voice slowed down a lot, and it always made people feel that she was sighing something.

*****************************************************************

"Jinrui, there's something I want to talk to you about." After dinner, it was already early, and He Zhi was about to lead Xi Qiu back to the room as usual, but was stopped by Wei Lai halfway.

Although Wei Lai was born in the army, he has always been extremely polite, and it is naturally extremely rare to make an appointment alone. So He Zhi just glanced up at her, and knew that she really had something important, and there was nothing to hesitate, so she cooperated and sent Xi Qiu behind her away, and then pointed out: "I think you have been absent-minded today, but it has something to do with what you want to say?" ”

He Zhi has always been smart, Wei Lai knew that he couldn't hide it, and he didn't think there was anything to hide, so he nodded and said, "Yes." I thought about it for a day, but I still felt that I should sue you. As he spoke, he swept his eyes to the side, and there were not many guests coming and going in the inn, and there were many people who didn't just talk, so he added: "But it's not here." ”

Naturally, the public is not a good place to talk, although He Zhi couldn't guess what Wei Lai wanted to say to her at all, but at this moment he still nodded cooperatively: "Since that's the case, let's go to your room and talk about it." There was still Xi Qiu who had just returned to her room, and looking at Wei Lai's attitude, she obviously didn't want a third person to be present.

In fact, He Zhi's mention is not polite, but she is also an informal person, so she naturally doesn't care about these little things. And Wei Lai obviously didn't want to dwell on these details, her mind was full of the five big words "how to speak", she didn't think about it, so she obediently led He Zhi to her room.

The two entered the house one after the other, and then Wei Lai consciously ...... Close the door and lock it!

When he turned back again, Wei Lai met He Zhi's slightly surprised gaze.

Suddenly, I remembered that there was something wrong with my behavior of locking, but Wei Lai didn't explain anything, and the surprise in the other party's eyes was fleeting. He Zhi quickly regained her composure, because it turned out that even the same bedside with General Wei couldn't do anything beyond the bounds, so she just smiled lightly and asked, "So now, does Wei Lai have anything to say to me?" ”

He Zhi's eyes are still as bright as the first sight, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off. But at this moment, facing those beautiful eyes, even if he had silently typed in his heart before, Wei Lai still couldn't say a word.
