40. The blessings of life

In the end, the fight ended with Fang Bin's defeat, Liu Yan glanced at the corners of Fang Bin's red and swollen mouth, and a smug smile appeared on his face: "I was not your opponent before, but this time I can finally teach you a good lesson." But you don't have the internal strength, and I seem to be a little invincible. ”

Fang Bin glanced at him lightly: "Since you are angry, then I will leave." ”

"Wait!" Liu Yan suddenly called, and when he saw Fang Bin stop, he followed, "You really don't care about the affairs of the court?" ”

"Knowingly asked."

Liu Yan was silent for a long time and sighed helplessly: "That's it, our senior brothers have been living for the mission since childhood, and now that you are no longer a member of the bell tower, then I wish you happiness." ”

"Senior brother!" Jiu Mo was a little unhappy and wanted to say something, Liu Yan raised his right hand lightly to stop it, Jiu Mo was unwilling but had to shut up.

Liuyan said again: "Your lady is Yao Zhengdong's daughter, if one day we want to attack that dog thief, you and your wife will ...... then."

"I won't tolerate anyone hurting her!" Fang Bin coldly interrupted Liu Yan's words, his face looked a little gloomy, "She has nothing to do with Yao Zhengdong. ”

Liuyan smiled bitterly: "Okay, I hope things are as you say." ”

Fang Bin didn't say anything more, and walked out.

"Senior Brother, is it really like this, Senior Brother?" Jiu Mo looked at Fang Bin's disappearing door and complained dissatisfiedly.

Liuyan hugged his hands in the ring, his good-looking phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the curvature of the corners of his lips was a little faint: "Look at it, I don't believe that he will really stay out of the matter at that time." ”

Thirteen Shadows and Jiu Mo glanced at each other, then lowered their heads and secretly thought about something.

The returning man who was squatting in the corner wanted to cry and tearfully glanced at the messy tables and chairs in the room, and then looked at the broken plates, he patted his head helplessly, and secretly complained in his heart: What can I do about this, such a gang is not good at all, how can he open his mouth to make them lose money. However, if it is left at that, then all these tables, chairs, plates and dishes will be deducted from his salary.

The more the guy thought about it, the more anxious he became, trembling and not knowing what to do.

After a while, Liuyan finally noticed that there was one more person in the room, and it seemed that since he and Qiying had been fighting together, that person had cowered in the corner of the wall, carefully observing.

A smile tugged at the corner of his lips, and he reached out and took out an ingot of gold on his chest, and threw it in front of the man with a little force, his tone as lazy as ever: "No need to look for it." ”

The guy stretched out his hands to take the gold with bright eyes, and quickly put it in his mouth and took a bite, and then he took the ingot of gold into his arms, and couldn't help screaming excitedly, he had never seen such a big ingot of gold, and today he could be regarded as meeting a nobleman.

When he was happy, he remembered to thank the guest officer, but when he looked up again, there was no one else in the room but him.

When Fang Bin got home, it was already dark, A-Yao had already prepared dinner and was waiting for him in the house, and when she saw him come back, she immediately stood up from the wooden pier: "You're back." Oops, how did you get hurt? Seeing the injury on his face, A-Yao was a little anxious and looked pity.

"It's fine, it's just some skin trauma." Fang Bin glanced at the untouched food on the table and frowned slightly: "Why don't you eat it yourself?" ”

A-Yao smiled: "I'm not too hungry yet, I want to wait for you to come back and eat together." By the way, you must be hungry, I'm going to heat up the food. ”

Fang Bin answered, and together with Ah Yao, he brought the food into the stove room and heated it.

"What about your brother and sister?" Yao asked while stirring the dishes in the pot.

Fang Bin paused with his hand holding the dry firewood, and slowly put it into the stove to see that the firewood was burned by the fire, and his handsome and straight face was also extinguished with the fire: "I won't let them disturb our lives." ”

Listening to Fang Bin's words of approximate promise, Ah Yao smiled sweetly and did not respond.

After dinner, because the weather was too cold, Ah Yao finished washing and went to the kang with Fang Bin early.

Sticking to Fang Bin's body, A-Yao felt that her whole body was warm, and such warmth made her attached.

Ah Yao rubbed her body and got closer to Fang Bin.

Feeling the delicate little movement in his arms, Fang Bin's heart tightened, and he suddenly turned over and pressed up.

The sudden extra weight on her body made A-Yao startled, although the two were no longer newlyweds, she still couldn't help blushing in this kind of thing, and she was already a little stammered when she said it: "Why are you ...... Haven't slept yet? ”

"Didn't you sleep too? Well? Fang Bin's words were a little low, with a slight hoarseness, "What are you thinking?" ”

Ah Yao stretched out her hand and wrapped it around his neck, and whispered almost invisibly: "It would be nice if it could be like this all the time." ”

Fang Bin's deep eyes darkened, and suddenly he turned over and got off Ah Yao, and lay back on the kang again, he reached out and grabbed Ah Yao, and kissed her softly under the corner of her forehead: "Yes, we will always be so happy." ”

Ah Yao smiled, but there was not much joy in her eyes: "My father's business...... I heard about it on the way when I was taken away by Jiumo and Thirteen Shadows. Ah Yao said tentatively, seeing that Fang Bin was silent, she continued, "My father has done a lot of bad things for His Royal Highness the King of Yin in Shangjing City, right?" Are your brothers and sisters all helping His Royal Highness King Zhao deal with my father? ”

"It's not for you to meddle in court affairs, Ah Yao." Fang Bin spoke earnestly.

"But he's my father!" Ah Yao interrupted him urgently, and his tone weakened a little bit, revealing a faint distantness, "I haven't had a mother since I was a child, and my stepmother has treated me badly, and the closest thing to me since I was a child is my father, he may not be a good official, but he is definitely a good father, and he is my good father." ”

Fang Bin was silent for a long time, and Fang Youyou spoke: "I understand your feelings, but ...... Even though I am no longer a member of the Bell Tower, I must never forget the grace of Master's nurturing and teaching, and help His Royal Highness King Zhao to win the throne, this is the task assigned to us by Master, no matter what, I can't turn against King Yin to help your father, the only thing I can do now is to stay out of it. ”

As he spoke, he looked down at Ah Yao in his arms, he couldn't see Ah Yao's face in the night when there was no light, but he knew in his heart that her face would not look good at the moment.

Ah Yao kept silent, Fang Bin hugged the wife in his arms tighter with some distress, and buried his face in her black hair that was as long as a waterfall: "I'm sorry." ”

A-Yao, who had been silent, suddenly shook her head slightly: "I don't blame you, you have your difficulties." Let alone...... It's really my father who did something wrong, although I don't understand the government, but I also know the name of King Zhao's benevolence and righteousness. ”

Ah Yao said and looked up at the darkness in the room, and sighed secretly in her heart: I don't know when I will see my father again, if I see her again, she will definitely persuade her father to abandon the darkness and turn to the light.

In the early morning, a soft ray of sunlight slanted into the house, and Ah Yao slowly woke up under the warm sunlight that she hadn't seen for a long time. She rubbed her heavy eyelids, she didn't know when she fell asleep last night, and she woke up at this time today.

Remembering that she had to get up to cook, she quickly sat up from the kang and hurriedly put on her boots.

At this time, Fang Bin walked in from the outside, and saw a smile on Ah Yao's face: "Are you awake?" ”

Ah Yao nodded and walked down from the kang, and went to the dressing mirror to get a wooden comb to comb her hair, while looking over here: "Why don't you wake me up?" ”

Fang Bin stepped forward and took the wooden comb in her hand, and gently combed her black hair draped over her back shoulders: "You should take more rest." Now that it's approaching the end of the year, I plan to suspend classes in the martial arts hall, and I just have time to stay at home with you for a while. ”

Looking at the gentle movements of the person behind her through the bronze mirror, Ah Yao smiled silently.

"I'll go to the market in a moment to buy some ingredients and come back, and the three of them will come over today." Fang Bin said suddenly.

Fang Bin didn't specify who those three people were, but Ah Yao knew in her heart that they must be his senior brother and sister.

Before Ah Yao could say anything, he listened to him continue: "They are going to leave for Beijing today, after all, we are in the same family, and we have grown up together since childhood, and today's meal should be a send-off for them." ”

Ah Yao nodded: "I see." ”

In fact, she didn't intend to refuse, how could she not understand Fang Bin's thoughts. Those people were in a hostile position with her father, which did make her feel a little uncomfortable, but it was not so bad that she couldn't distinguish between right and wrong.

When it was close to noon, Liuyan, Jiu Mo, and Thirteen Shadows came to the house together, and Ah Yao made a table of meals to entertain them.

Fang Bin was cold by nature, and the dinner table was never lively, but it was just that Liu Yan occasionally made a few jokes, and then joked with the Thirteen Shadows.

After lunch, Ah Yao packed up the dishes and went to the stove room to wash.

Through the window of the stove room, she saw the figures of Bin and Jiu Mo under the osmanthus tree, and A-Yao's hand rubbing the plate stopped, and her eyes fell motionless on the two of them.

It was too far away for her to hear what the two were saying, but she had already guessed it in her heart when she looked at Jiu Mo's expression.

"It's also a blessing for my junior brother to be able to marry a good wife like Miss Yao."

Such a half-playful sentence suddenly floated in her ears, and Ah Yao subconsciously looked back, but saw Liu Yan leaning on the door frame of the stove room in black clothes, holding his hands around, and the corners of his lips slightly raised an arc, and the whole person looked a little uninhibited.

Ah Yao was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Liuyan, and her cheeks gradually became a little hot, but she had to smile hard: "Senior brother praises falsely, Ah Yao feels that it is a blessing in life for two people who love each other to rely on each other." ”

Liuyan raised his eyebrows: "Are you suggesting that I don't want to break you up?" ”

Ah Yao shook her head, and she didn't know if she was telling herself or Liuyan: "If the relationship between two people is stronger than Jin, what can be separated?" ”

The smile on Liuyan's face became more real, and he turned his head to look outside and squeezed his eyes towards A-Yao: "No wonder Jiu Mo will lose to you." ”

Ah Yao was stunned by his action, and before she could understand the meaning of his words, she saw that he had turned around and walked out, and greeted Jiu Mo and Thirteen Shadows in the courtyard: "It's time for us to hit the road." ”
