Chapter 47: Midnight

The conditions of the family staying tonight are really not good, the house is simple, and the bedding on the bed is also a little shabby and damp. @樂@文@小@说|Wei Lai, who had just come back from the bitter cold land of Northern Xinjiang, naturally didn't feel anything, but for a young lady like He Zhi, it was a little unbearable, especially the damp and moldy smell on the bedding.

Wei Lai didn't screw He Zhi in the end, maybe she was also afraid that Miss He's mouth would say something amazing, so she finally lay honestly on the only big bed in the room. It's just that He Zhi sleeps on the inside, and she sleeps on the outside against the edge of the bed, and in that small bed, the distance between the two is more than enough to sleep with one more person.

The night is getting darker, and the time is getting late, but the two people who should have rested well in bed to recharge their energy are completely sleepy tonight.

He Zhi tilted her head slightly, and saw Wei Lai's back through the moonlight faintly penetrating through the window—she was lying straight on the edge of the bed, with a stiff feeling all over her body, and even her breathing was almost shallow in this silent night.

Obviously, this is a person who is extremely nervous. So after pursing her lips slightly, He Zhi's nerves, which were still a little nervous, suddenly relaxed. Because she found that Wei Lai was actually more nervous than her, this discovery made her a little novel, and at the same time, she was unconsciously relieved and relaxed.

He Zhi turned over slightly, turned sideways to face Wei Lai's tense back, and the corners of her mouth bent unconsciously. Thinking of Wei Lai's aggrieved appearance when she was amused by her "hidden disease" before, she couldn't help but feel a little better, and gradually, sleepiness hit her head.

At the moment when He Zhi closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, Wei Lai, who had been hanging on the edge of the bed for almost half a night, suddenly moved. He Zhi vaguely heard some movement, but at this moment, drowsiness hit her, and her eyelids were so heavy that she really didn't have the energy to pay attention to it, and it was impossible for Wei Lai to do anything pleasant......

As soon as this thought crossed his mind, the next second, He Zhi was pressed under him by Wei Lai covering his mouth.

The frightened He Zhi immediately opened her eyes, and her bright eyes were no longer as calm as before, and finally brought a panic that she had never felt before - could it be that she saw the wrong person and mistook the disciple for a gentleman?!

Fortunately, this idea was dismissed in the next moment. Because Wei Lai also found that the posture of the two was too ambiguous, she glanced at He Zhi, and found that the other party was not only awake, but also had already recovered the clarity in his eyes, so she put a finger to her lips and made a silent gesture, and then saw He Zhi nodding slightly, so she hurriedly turned over and retreated, but she held He Zhi's hand but did not let go.

Seeing Wei Lai like this, how could He Zhi not guess that something was wrong. It's just that she listened intently, but she didn't hear any movement in the silent night, and she couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart. It's a pity that Wei Lai never let go of her hand, so she had to pull the other party's free hand and write in her palm: "What's wrong?" ”

When his fingertips lightly swiped his palm, he was crispy and numb, even if Wei Lai, who was not here now, couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment. Fortunately, it was only for a moment, and she withdrew her mind again, but she didn't miss the words He Zhi wrote in her palm. After that, he didn't speak, but just stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the only window in the room.

He Zhi then looked and saw a black shadow reflected on the window paper, and it could be vaguely seen that it was a person lying on the windowsill, and he didn't know what he was doing. Of course, He Zhi, who was lying on the windowsill in the middle of the night, didn't believe that the one outside was a good person, not to mention that she was already angry about the thief who didn't know if there was a zài in the mouth of "Miss Liu".

"What is he doing?" He Zhi took Wei Lai's hand and wrote again.

Wei Lai pursed his lips, suppressed the urge to withdraw his hand, and wrote in He Zhi's palm: "It should be blowing smoke into the house, you should be careful, don't inhale it." ”

The slightly itchy touch of the palm made He Zhi subconsciously shrink her palm, but she never missed what Wei Lai wrote. It was only at this time that she finally understood why Wei Lai had been covering her mouth and nose, so the little ripples in her heart faded unconsciously, and calmness and calmness once again prevailed.

With just one look, Wei Lai knew what He Zhi meant, and let go of the hand covering the other party's mouth and nose. He Zhi didn't twist either, pinched her sleeve with one hand and covered her mouth and nose, and with the other hand went to Wei Lai's hand and continued to write: "How are you doing?" ”

Wei Lai glanced back in the direction of the window, the piece of bamboo pipe that had been put into the window paper had been taken back, and the people outside seemed to be preparing to leave. She thought about it for a while, and then wrote four words on He Zhi's hand: "Wait and see." ”

He Zhi nodded, and the two didn't communicate more, just lying quietly on the bed, waiting for the next move of the smoked person. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but the hands of the two of them to write and communicate were always in one place, and their fingertips were slightly connected, and no one took them back.

And this is a quarter of an hour's work. During this period, the mood of the two of them fluctuated a little and they didn't talk about it for a while, but when they finally heard the slight sound of the door being pushed open, the two didn't feel much nervous or scared, but both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fourth, the girl said that what kind of general is that kid, looking good, let's not go into this house, aren't all things in the carriage." Even though the smoke has been used, the person who spoke still subconsciously lowered the volume, just listening to the voice, it should be the hostess of the house.

"You know the! Of course, important and valuable things should be kept close to you, so what can be in the carriage that is handed over to the coachman to guard? The man's voice was low, and the greed in it was undisguised: "Besides, people are stunned, what are you afraid of?!" ”

Immediately after, two footsteps entered the room. The lighter footsteps looked around, and then focused on the small burden that Wei Lai had brought in. The other heavier footsteps only paused slightly by the door, and then walked straight towards Wei Lai and them......

In this silent night, both the sound of turning over the burden and the sound of approaching footsteps seem to be amplified countless times. He Zhi, who encountered this kind of thing for the first time, was a little nervous, and even the fingertips connected to Wei Lai stiffened slightly.

Wei Lai closed his eyes and listened attentively, while calculating in his heart how far the footsteps were from the bedside, he naturally did not miss He Zhi's rare tense moment. In the dark, her long eyelashes moved slightly, and then she quietly gathered her fingers and held He Zhi's fingertips in the palm of her hand, but the slight weight was inexplicably reassuring.

Finally, the faint sound of footsteps stopped beside the bed. The man on the side of the bed seemed to stand in place and observe, and seeing that there was nothing wrong with the two people on the bed, he stretched out one hand straight to He Zhi, who was sleeping inside......
