When Ye Xiaoyu walked out of the city gate, the sun had already set in the west, and when he looked back, the city wall carved with traces of time was shrouded in the light of the setting sun, and the scars of the war seemed to tell the old things of a thousand years, vicissitudes and old age.

After calming down his mood, Ye Xiaoyu quickened his pace and walked in the direction of Quanxiu Village.

The scene I saw when I saw the young man in white just now was like a dream, and before I could react, it had already disappeared. Regardless of whether the encounter just now is true or not, it shows the distance between himself and the young man in white, maybe God has this intention, I hope I don't want to be too persistent, Ye Xiaoyu reached out and touched the jade pendant that was still in his pocket, no desire is rigid, maybe, I can go further without any fetters.

In winter, it gets dark quickly, and after about half the way, the sky begins to darken, and the empty road looks even more lonely and terrifying under the cover of night.

At first, it was just speeding up, but in the end, Ye Xiaoyu almost began to run wildly. I knew that I wouldn't buy such a heavy fried chicken at noon, but now it's like a weight-bearing cross-country, and Ye Xiaoyu, who is pressed by the fried chicken and cloth, is almost out of breath.

Finally, Ye Xiaoyu saw a big tree in front of him with a little light, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, when this big tree came out this morning, he noticed that it was only a few hundred meters away from the entrance of Quanxiu Village, although it was dark now, but he was finally about to arrive.

"Little girl, do you want to take a car?"

Suddenly, a carriage stopped beside him.

"No thanks."

It's pitch black, and the ghost wants to ride in this strange car.

"It's okay, seeing that you're so tired, I can give you a ride, along the way."

Listening to this voice, the driver was a man, not very old, but the night was too thick to see the other party's face clearly.

"No, I'll be there soon, thank you."

Ye Xiaoyu declined again.

"Really?"

The voice asked again.

"Well, I'll be home soon, thank you for your kindness."

Ye Xiaoyu said and hurriedly quickened his pace.

"Then I can only ask you to sit ......"

As soon as the man who was driving the carriage finished speaking, several people suddenly jumped out of the carriage and came directly around Ye Xiaoyu.

Lujiazhuang South Garden.

It was already dark outside, but Ye Xiaoyu hadn't come back yet, and Hong'er in the house was fidgeting anxiously.

When he went to the academy to ask Qianyi for leave this morning, he didn't know if he had made a mistake, although he didn't say anything, and he didn't know if he was a thief, Hong'er felt that Qianyi's eyes flashed a strange light. At that time, I was afraid that I would say too much and make too many mistakes, so I quickly ran away after asking for leave.

According to last night's plan, Miss should have returned to Lujiazhuang by now, but the sky outside is getting darker and darker, but there is no Miss at all, going to Yuejing alone, nothing will happen, right? The more Hong'er thought about it, the more worried she became.

"Madame to ......"

Hong'er was anxious, and suddenly remembered the voice of Jiang Ping's personal maid Yinhua outside.

Yes? I'm really afraid of something, why did Madame suddenly come here today, but Miss hasn't come back yet, what should I do now?

Hong'er was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Madame'......"

In a hurry, but the greeting was still needed, Hong'er had to go out hard.

"Hmm...... I heard Mr. Qianyi say that Xiaoyu is sick today, let me take a look, is the illness better? ”

The originally dark courtyard was very bright by the lanterns, and Jiang Ping stood in the brightest place.

"Mrs. Hui, I drank the medicine today and rested a lot."

Hong'er's voice trembled a little.

"Oh? In this way, then I'll go in and see Xiaoyu. ”

Saying that, Jiang Ping was about to enter the house.

"Madame, please stay, Miss is a little cold and cold, Lang Zhong said that you can't see people, otherwise it will be infected to others."

Although it was cold outside, Hong'er was hot and sweaty.

"It's okay, I'll just take a look from afar, otherwise I won't be too careful."

Jiang Ping ignored Hong'er's obstruction and walked directly into the house, and Ye Xiaoyu's bedroom was in the middle.

"Madam, Miss really can't see people......"

Hong'er's voice was full of tears.

"I'll just take a look from afar, why are you stopping like this?"

Hong'er kept blocking it, and Jiang Ping suddenly felt that something was wrong.

“…… Miss may be sleeping right now. ”

When Jiang Ping said this, Hong'er didn't want to say anything, and stood aside obediently, looking loveless.

"Xiaoyu, are you feeling better?"

Jiang Ping walked into Ye Xiaoyu's bedroom in the room.

Seeing that there was no movement inside, he motioned for Yinhua to step forward and pull open the quilt.

Yinhua understood, so she covered her nose and mouth with a handkerchief and walked towards Ye Xiaoyu's bed.

The quilt on the bed is a little arched, but because it is very tightly covered, it is difficult to see if there is anyone inside.

Yinhua walked over and lifted the quilt......

Hong'er closed her eyes in despair, the life and death of the young lady were uncertain, and the incident happened here, she was definitely dead this time.

Sure enough, under the quilt that was lifted, it was empty, and of course there was no Ye Xiaoyu.

Seeing this, Jiang Ping guessed that something must have happened, and stared at Hong'er with sharp eyes.

"Hong'er, tell me honestly, where has Miss gone!!?"

Jiang Ping asked sternly.

"I don't know, I really don't know, Miss was still here just now......"

Hong'er can finally cry out loud.

"Just here? Tell me honestly......"

Jiang Ping's eyes were as sharp as knives.

"What I said is true......"

Hong'er's tears fell in strings.

"Come on, bring the family motto and give this girl a good taste......"

Jiang Ping said to the family next to him. The so-called "family motto" is a long wooden stick with a diameter of about 20 centimeters.

"Little-Sister......"

Hong'er shouted hoarsely in fright.

"What's wrong Hong'er, I'm here."

Ye Xiaoyu's voice suddenly sounded outside.

“……”

Hong'er thought it was her hallucination, and was stunned for a while.

"What's wrong with Hong'er, I just went to the thatched house......"

Ye Xiaoyu walked in the door.

"Miss......!!!!!"

Seeing that it was really Ye Xiaoyu walking in, Hong'er pounced hard, regardless of whether Jiang Ping was still here. Now Ye Xiaoyu's voice is like heaven for Hong'er.

"Uh...... Madame is there too......"

Ye Xiaoyu hugged Hong'er who pounced on her, and looked up to see Jiang Ping with a straight face.

"Xiaoyu meets Madame, cough cough ......"

Ye Xiaoyu made a gesture to Jiang Ping, maybe the bending action pulled the nerves in her body, and she began to cough again.

"Well, Xiaoyu, I heard Mr. Qianyi say that you are sick, so I will come and take a look, but I didn't see you in bed......"

Seeing Ye Xiaoyu, Jiang Ping regained her usual smiling face.

"Xiaoyu is useless, let my wife worry, I was infected with some wind cold, and my stomach was a little uncomfortable just now, so I went to the thatched house......"

Ye Xiaoyu replied with her head down.

"Why didn't you say a word to Hong'er when you went to the thatched house, see how worried she is about you......"

Jiang Ping was skeptical.

"Hong'er took care of me all day today, I guess I was too tired, just when I went out, I saw her lying on the table and fell asleep, so I didn't wake her up. It was my lack of thought that made Mrs. and Hong'er worried. ”

Ye Xiaoyu said and glanced at Hong'er beside her.

"You're fine, it's cold, you need to add more clothes, I brought you a coat, you try ......"

Seeing that Ye Xiaoyu's explanation was so leaky, Jiang Ping couldn't catch any flaws, so she gave Ye Xiaoyu a gray fur coat she brought.

"Thank you, ma'am......"

Ye Xiaoyu stretched out her hands to take off her coat and held it in her hands like a treasure.

"Thank you, thank you, it's all a family, you can wear it to see if it's suitable."

Jiang Ping's face became gentle, and she said to Ye Xiaoyu with a smile.

"Hmmm......"

Ye Xiaoyu was only wearing a thin coat when she entered the door just now, and her face was red from the wind, and after wearing this coat, she felt a lot warmer.

"It fits perfectly. Look at you, even though you're at home, you don't wear more clothes when you go out, look at your frozen little face......"

Jiang Ping said, helping Ye Xiaoyu straighten the collar of her coat with her hand.

"Because my stomach hurts so much, I'm a little anxious, and I can't hold back ......"

Ye Xiaoyu blushed and whispered.

"Look at you like this, okay, okay, your body bones are already so thin, you have to take care of yourself, don't take it seriously, it's not early, I'll go back first, you have to drink medicine on time, I don't ...... heard"

Jiang Ping said and went out.

"Madame walks slowly......"

Ye Xiaoyu was sent outside the courtyard.
