Chapter 55: Overnight
Jiang Yushan smiled: "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, we are in trouble now, and now it is almost dark, so I want to spend the night here with you, can you see if it is convenient?" ā
The woman listened to Jiang Yushan's words, and then looked at the wet appearance of the two of them, not like they were here to trouble them, and said, "Okay, you guys come in!" But you can't get used to our house! ā
"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Jiang Yushan and Qi Fan thanked each other repeatedly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
So the woman led them through the small earthen lawn where the clothes were dried on wooden shelves, and came to the hall. As soon as I entered, I saw a middle-aged man and three children sitting around a rough square table.
The middle-aged man had dark skin, and at first glance, he knew that he had endured the sun and rain all day. The eldest of the three children was probably a girl, who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old, and was a little timid when she saw the living, and the other two were boys, one was seven or eight years old, and the other was about three or four years old, and she still had snot and was a little dirty.
"Daddy, these two people said they were going to spend the night, this barren mountain and wilderness, it's getting dark again, you see we can do a favor!" The sister-in-law said.
The man looked at the two of them and said, "Are you really in trouble?" Seeing that Qi Fan was wearing a military uniform, the man's defensiveness was a little heavy.
Jiang Yushan hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't worry, we will leave tomorrow and stay for one night." ā
Seeing that the man was still a little hesitant, Jiang Yushan touched his pocket, took out a lot of money from it, and said, "Let's stay for one night, all this money will be given to you, it's just a little wet, can you see it?" ā
When the man saw so much money, he hurriedly said, "Okay! Yes! Then he took Jiang Yushan's money.
The woman hurriedly stopped the man and said, "If you don't want so much money, you can't take it all!" ā
"You know what!" The man glared at the woman.
And the woman said no more.
"Sister-in-law, can you find two sets of clothes for us to change? Look at us drenched, cold! Jiang Yushan's voice was nasal, she had actually sneezed a few times and had caught a cold.
"Okay, come with me." The woman immediately took them to change their clothes, and as she went, she said, "Don't be disgusted with our old and unsightly clothes!" ā
"No, it won't!" Jiang Yushan said busily.
Jiang Yushan changed into a pair of black trousers and a blue floral cloth coat on her upper body; Qi Fan also changed into a pair of black trousers and a gray coat, his coat was open, and the white cloth inside could be seen, and a black cloth belt was tied around his waist.
Jiang Yushan saw Qi Fan and said with a smile: "You are dressed in a very rustic style!" Where are Ming'er going to hoe? ā
Qi Fan patted the back of his head embarrassedly.
"Come and eat some noodles!" The woman beckoned them into the hall to eat noodles.
Qi Fan and Jiang Yushan were indeed very hungry, so they sat down to eat noodles together.
Although he was a little embarrassed now, Qi Fan felt quite happy, he never thought that one day he would be able to sit alone with Jiang Yushan and eat, and the hot air on his face rushed to his heart.
Officers and soldiers searched from house to house, and tonight the whole city and the surrounding villages were in turmoil.
The people who reported came again and again, and they all said that they had not found it.
At this time, an officer came in again and said, "Overseer, the north and east of the city have been searched again, but they have not found Adjutant Qi and the fourth wife. ā
Liu Ziyu was very angry and said: "A group of useless things, if you don't find them, continue to look for them!" If you don't find someone, don't report to me, and whoever dares to come in and tell me that you can't find someone will kill him! ā
The officer hurriedly agreed to go down.
"Brother, don't be so angry!" Liu Zixuan sat on the side, and when he saw this, he persuaded, "The fourth sister-in-law and Adjutant Qi are together, it will be fine!" ā
When Liu Ziyu heard this, he was even more stimulated, and when he thought of the two of them alone, his anger burned fiercely, he grabbed a white porcelain cup and smashed it on the ground, and the fragments of the white porcelain cup flew to Liu Zixuan.
Liu Zixuan was taken aback, and thought in a panic that he didn't seem to have said anything wrong.
The night had come, and it was already completely dark. It was really dark, and the moon was hiding in thick dark clouds, and thick clouds were still moving in the sky. It looks like heavy rain is coming.
Jiang Yushan and Qi Fan had already finished eating noodles.
The woman walked in and said with a smile, "Come with me, make room for you, and rest early!" ā
"Just one room?" Qi Fan asked.
"Why, do you need two? You have a lady on the left and a lady on the left, aren't you husband and wife? The woman wondered.
Misunderstood by this woman, Qi Fan's face turned red, and said, "We-"
"We're husband and wife, just one room. Sister-in-law, take us there! Jiang Yushan hurriedly cut off Qi Fan's words.
The lady smiled: "I'll just say it!" Let's go! ā
Qi Fan looked at Jiang Yushan in surprise, Jiang Yushan gave him a look, and Qi Fan followed behind and walked to the room.
After entering the house, Jiang Yushan closed the door, turned around and walked in front of Qi Fan, and said, "You must want to ask me why I said that just now, right?" ā
Qi Fan looked at her and nodded slightly woodenly.
"Because I don't think it's safe for me to be a woman, sleeping alone in a stranger's house, or sleeping with a stranger, so I wronged you for one night!" Jiang Yushan said a little mischievously.
"Madam, you are wronged!" Qi Fan said.
"Whoa! I said that there is no one else, why are you always so polite to me? Jiang Yushan leaned her elbow against Qi Fan.
Qi Fan didn't know how to answer, so he didn't make a sound.
Jiang Yushan saw that he had a serious face and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous! In this way, you can call me Wu Cui now, or Cui'er, it's okay! ā
"This can't be!" Qi Fan refused.
"Well, whatever you want!" Jiang Yushan didn't force him, Qi Fan helped her again, she was grateful to him for treating him as a friend for proposing like this, since Qi Fan didn't accept it, she didn't mention it anymore.
Jiang Yushan moved a small wooden stool and sat down, and said, "Hey! Ziyu must be looking for me everywhere now! I don't know what happened to Zixuan and Beibei. ā
Qi Fan said: "Yes, the Overseer must be very worried about you now, and Miss Zixuan and Miss Bei Bei must also be in a hurry!" ā
"That's right!" Jiang Yushan thought of something, "When you rescued me today, did you ask why those people tied me up?" ā
"I asked them, and they said they were instructed by Mrs. Gu." Qi Fan said, "But I think it's a little strange, today she went to Commander Luo's house after picking up Miss Zixuan, how could she know that Fourth Mrs. You slipped out?" ā
"How do you know I'm slipping out?" Jiang Yushan sat up straight.
Qi Fan didn't answer, and smiled.
"Also, dressed like this and tied up, how could it not be that you slipped out!" Jiang Yushan muttered to herself.
Suddenly the two of them stopped talking, and the air in the small room was extremely quiet.
Qi Fan looked at Jiang Yushan, the dancing candle flame reflected Jiang Yushan's beautiful face, she was thinking about something. Qi Fan found that his heart was beating so violently.
"I see!" Jiang Yushan suddenly spit out the words.
Qi Fan was taken aback, calmed down and asked, "What do you know, madam?" ā
Jiang Yushan wanted to say that she knew who was looking for it, but she still felt that Qi Fan didn't need to know about it, so she smiled and said, "It's nothing!" ā
Qi Fan knew that she didn't want to say it, so he answered "oh".
At this time, I remembered the rolling thunder, and the light and shadow of lightning would flicker from time to time outside.
"It's going to rain heavily!" Jiang Yushan said with a smile.
"You seem to be happy!"
"Yes! I love rainy nights with thunder. ā
"Why?" Qi Fan was very curious, there were actually women who liked thunder on rainy nights, he had always thought that they were all disgusted with this.
