Chapter 31: The Dawn of the Willows (2)

Chen Erxin is not in a good mood these days, because the maid Yu'er, who has just gotten along with her very happily, is about to leave.

According to Fang Wu, Yu'er came to the Chen Mansion for less than a month, and she wanted to do a long-term job in the Chen Mansion, but unexpectedly, her mother was seriously ill and urgently needed someone to take care of her. I have been away from home, and I rely on being a teacher to support my family, so I can only let my sister go back to take care of it first. Although Er Xin and Hu were reluctant to be well-behaved and sensible Yu'er, they really couldn't delay this matter, so they had to be approved. Before leaving, the two also gave Yu'er a lot of jewelry and silver, and asked Yu'er to buy more supplements for her mother.

However, to the surprise of Hu and Er Xin, Yu'er, who they thought had already returned to the countryside, was hiding in Chen's mansion in the night, observing their every move. The night was as dark as ink, and the whole mansion faded away from the noise of the day and became quiet. But at the back door of Chen's mansion, a simple carriage drove out and headed northwest of Huainan City. Seeing this, the girl who had been sitting in the tree immediately flew up and chased after the carriage. She was as light as a swallow, and her movements were completely silent, and after flying a distance, she landed on the top of the carriage with great precision, and followed the carriage all the way.

There were only two people in the whole car: Chen Zhiyuan and Yu Bo, who was driving. It's supposed to be a very frequented place, so it looks like a familiar one. The carriage continued to drive northwest until it was out of Huainan City. It's a beautiful place with a small village. The carriage stopped by a small stream in the village, and Chen Zhiyuan got out of the car and walked alone. After walking for a while, a simple but warm small courtyard appeared in front of me.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, someone in the small courtyard immediately greeted him. Stealing Jade deftly hid behind a banyan tree, and saw a woman in an ordinary cloth skirt walk out. The woman was obviously no longer young, perhaps because she had suffered a lot in her early years, and had never lived a pampered life, and she had many fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and she looked older than Hu. The woman's appearance is not very outstanding, but she can only be regarded as delicate. But her smile is extraordinarily warm and makes people feel comfortable in their hearts. Such an ordinary woman doesn't look like a "mistress" who will be raised outside by the prefect.

Just when the thief was wondering, Chen Zhiyuan had already greeted the woman, and he couldn't help but smile when he had always been elegant and upright and unsmiling. Stealing Yu suddenly felt that Chen Zhiyuan was sincere to this woman. Because the smile he showed to the woman was different from the respect and respect he showed to the Hu family, this smile was from the heart, and it was an expression that would only be revealed when he saw the person he truly loved.

Stealing Yu couldn't help but think of what Qi Yushan said, Chen Zhiyuan and this woman are childhood sweethearts, and they have a very good relationship, but they failed to get married when they were young for various reasons. Despite this, they still love each other deeply. Even if the years are no longer and the face is old, it still can't change the slightest bit of this love. It is a pity that I failed to get married.

The woman made a few home-cooked dishes for Chen Zhiyuan, simmered a pot of wine, and the two talked and laughed, just like an ordinary husband and wife. After stealing jade turned to the courtyard, he entered the house through the windows of the other rooms and jumped onto the beams. She hid in the shadows, and vaguely heard from Chen Zhiyuan's mouth that this woman's name was "Jinxuan". Her skill in tracking and monitoring is excellent, and she can hide her aura perfectly. And Chen Zhiyuan and Jinxuan obviously don't know martial arts, so naturally it is impossible to find her. Placed in a high place, Stealing Jade can clearly see Jinxuan's dress. Although her clothes were made of mediocre materials, she had a fine hairpin stuck in her head. The hairpin is green all over, the color is shiny, the brilliance is restrained, and it is absolutely extraordinary. Stealing jade couldn't help but be overjoyed, presumably this is the jasper hairpin!

Now that the whereabouts of the hairpin have been learned, it is really a piece of cake for the skilled jade thief to steal it in the hands of such a powerless woman. But at this time, the girl didn't want to take the hairpin directly at night. Looking at the two people in the room who were smiling faintly and silently watching each other, a bold idea broke into Stealing Jade's mind: she wanted to get close to Jinxuan, and she wanted to know, what kind of love and hate were there between these two people?

Just when the jade thief found out the whereabouts of the jasper hairpin, in Weiyi Mountain, Rong Eryu, who had been in a coma for several days, finally had a fever and slowly woke up.

He only felt that his mouth was extremely dry, and he desperately wanted to drink water. Stealing incense, who had been guarding his side, heard the movement and hurriedly came over to check. Seeing that she finally woke up, she cried with joy and exclaimed: "Young Master Rong, you are awake!" You, how do you feel? ”

"Water ......" and when he opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice hoarse as if he had been burned by fire, "I, I'm very thirsty...... Water ......"

"It's coming, it's coming." Stealing incense quickly poured a cup of tea. She sat up and saw the man who had just recovered from a serious illness eagerly drinking the whole cup of tea. After drinking it, I felt a lot more comfortable, and the feeling of being roasted by the fire finally subsided.

Seeing that he was fully awake, he took a pillow and placed it behind him to make him sit comfortably. Thank God that he finally woke up! After so many days, she didn't dare to close her eyes at all. His injuries were so severe that his life could be in danger at any moment. She was afraid that the heavens would also take care of his beauty, and wanted to take him away early. She can even help keep him warm every day without clothes until his body temperature slowly drops. Although he was very sick, he had recovered well with her careful care, but his face was a little haggard. However, on the other hand, she is also injured. These days, she has completely ignored her injuries and taken care of him all day and night, and he has become so thin that he is almost out of shape. In contrast, stealing incense is more like a person who has a serious illness.

looked at the black eye bags and the distressingly thin chin, and felt a move in my heart. Although he has been unconscious, he can also feel that someone is taking care of him. So he said softly: "Girl stealing incense, these days, it's been too hard for you......"

"It's out of the way," Stealing Xiang said hurriedly, "Childe saved my life in the mountains, and I should take care of Childe." ”

And Yu shook his head: "If I hadn't insisted on coming here, how could the girl have encountered this mountain danger?" Now that the girl is taking care of me day and night, Rong really can't repay me. ”

"...... Gongzi Rong" Hearing his polite words, the tears of stealing incense were about to come out again. She bit her lip until her already pale lips became bloodless, and then she said, "Gongzi can get along with Yu'er casually, is it necessary to be so alienated from stealing incense?" ”

looked at the thin but stubborn woman in red in front of her, and couldn't bear it, and hurriedly explained: "The girl misunderstood what I meant, but I really don't know how to thank the girl for treating her so well." As he spoke, he shifted his mind and stopped dwelling on the question, "But where are we now?" Who saved us? ”

"We are in the wooden house where our benefactor has built and lived. She came out after an avalanche and saved us as she passed by. The house is right on the edge of the waterfall and close to where we were buried in the snow. Stealing incense said, thinking of the second question she encountered, her face was slightly red, and her blood-colored face became vivid again, "When Childe asked like this, I remembered that I have been worried about Childe's condition for the past few days, and I have never asked the benefactor's honorable name......"

"I see." "It's also strange, we've been looking around here for a long time, but we haven't found this wooden house?" ”

"This ......" was mentioned like this, and it was strange to steal incense. She will occasionally go out these days, this house is indeed near the waterfall on the top of the mountain, why did she search the mountains before she met, but she couldn't find it? Could it be that this house has just recently appeared out of thin air?

Just as the two of them were secretly wondering, a plain white figure walked in from outside. She had just returned from picking some mushrooms from the mountains, and there were still some snowflakes on her plain white coat. Seeing that he had woken up, the plain-clothed woman's expression was still faint, and she just said a word; "Oh, I'm already awake, so I can't die for a while."

After these days of getting along, Stealing Incense already knows that this woman is a cold-faced and hot-hearted person. Although her words are mean, she is very kind-hearted. I guess it was because of some previous injuries that I deliberately concealed my true feelings. Stealing incense smiled and introduced to him: "Young Master Rong, this is our benefactor." ”

"Thank you for saving me!" And when you are homeopathic, you have to get out of bed and salute.

The plain-clothed woman waved her hand to stop him: "The injury is not healed yet, so don't make those false courtesies." If your wound is reopened, you will have to trouble someone else to take care of it. ”

and smiled good-naturedly and said respectfully; "The place of education of the predecessors is. It's just that we've been bothering for a long time, and we still don't know the benefactor's name? ”

"Name?" When the plain-clothed woman heard this question, she paused, as if she was recalling something from a long time ago. Halfway, she said faintly, "I don't remember the name of my family. It's just that I have been learning art with my master since I was a child, and he gave me a name. Since then, the world has called me 'Snow Like This'. ”

"Snow is like that!" Stealing incense and Yu exclaimed at the same time, "It turns out that you are Master Xue!" ”
