Since giving the slashing wind to Long Yuheng, Xue Qing has replaced the place where she practiced her sword with the grass outside Meilin.

The plum forest is planted with plum blossoms of various colors, including winter and spring plums.

At the end of the competition, Xue Qing stood on the edge of the plum forest, looking at the plum blossoms, and her thoughts drifted into the distance.

This season, the spring plum has also begun to wither, and one petal after another drifts away with the wind. The wind danced with the petals, one of them was too naughty, and stayed in Xue Qing's hair and refused to leave, reflecting her face delicately, and Long Yuheng on the side was stunned.

He approached softly, standing beside her and looking at her, but she didn't notice. He leaned his head up and kissed her on the cheek.

"You ......" Xue Qing came back to her senses suddenly, suddenly felt ashamed and annoyed, and raised her hand to slap him, but it didn't fall after all. In the face of such a face, she couldn't fan it, and her hands trembled.

The matter has been done, Long Yuheng no longer dodge, raised his head and looked directly at her and said, "Sister, I like you very much." It's okay if you hit me, it's okay to scold me, I just like you. ”

"You...... Do you know what you're talking about? Xue Qing maintained a posture of raising her hands, panting, her chest rising and falling.

"I know," Long Yuheng also became excited, "I know exactly what I'm doing!" Sister, I like you. ”

Xue Qing put down her hand, tried to stabilize her breath, and scolded with hatred: "Long Yuheng, I raised you and bothered to cultivate you, is that what made you so unsuccessful?" ”

"My Fair Lady, good gentleman, this is human nature. I'm sixteen years old, and I'm an adult. Long Yuheng stepped forward and took Xue Qing's hand and said affectionately, "Sister, I like you, I want to marry you." I've always wanted to marry you, and you always treated me like a child before, I don't dare to say it. But now that I'm older, my martial arts are not weak, I can take care of you, and I'm finally qualified to say this to you. ”

"I don't know what to say!" Xue Qing had a calm face, shook him off hard, turned around, jumped over Merlin, returned to his main courtyard, and ordered his subordinates not to let the young master approach.

Long Yuheng's light skills are still quite far behind her, this time she showed her full strength, and he could only watch her go away. By the time he returned to the plum garden, Xue Qing had already locked the courtyard door and didn't want to see him.

Long Yuheng couldn't help but start to annoy at his impulsiveness, he didn't expect her to react like this. He wasn't afraid of his sister beating him and scolding him, but now, his sister ignored him, which was worse than killing him.

No, he had to find a way to remedy it, so he ran to the cook and asked her to cook a few more dishes and pastries that his sister liked in the evening. After three years of getting along, he also knew that her sister didn't have any hobbies, just beautiful scenery and food. The cook said that the young lady had already designated the meal she wanted for the evening, and ordered, and the cook would send the dinner to her yard.

This can't be done, in the evening, Long Yuheng stopped the cook: "Aunt He, let me send it to my sister." ”

The cook smiled and said, "Young master, don't you understand the young lady's temperament?" If I had listened to you, we would both have offended the young lady. Although the young lady is kind on weekdays, she is very stubborn when she starts her temper, if her uncle ......"

Realizing that she had slipped her mouth, the cook stopped talking and hurried towards Xueqing's courtyard.

But Long Yuheng understood, her sister was stubborn, and only Bingyan could make her change her mind. Because she only has ice flames in her heart, she is willing to change for him. Just like himself, as long as he can make her happy, he is willing to do anything.

Xue Qing specially asked the cook to prepare two pairs of dishes and chopsticks, and a pot of sweet rice wine, and made a few side dishes that Bingyan liked.

She took out the urn and placed it across the table, set the dishes and chopsticks in place, poured wine into his glass, and served the dishes in the bowl as if he were sitting opposite.

"Come, let's have a drink first." Xue Qing raised the wine in her glass, "I'm not good at drinking, a pot of sweet rice wine is enough." "Drink it all.

"Ice Flame, did you say I did something wrong. I shouldn't have brought him back, disturbed your purity and mine, and just gave him some silver taels to fend for himself. ”

"But he resembles you, and when I first met him, he was thirteen years old. At that time, we were envious of Yulie's sword. ”

"If it weren't for your resemblance, I wouldn't have looked at him more. But now that I've seen him, I can't watch him be homeless. I couldn't stop you when you left me, and I still blame myself for not showing up in front of you earlier. I thought, maybe this is God giving me a chance to make amends, and return what I owe you to this destined person who is similar to you. ”

"I have always treated Yu Heng sincerely and regarded him as my own brother, but he despised me. If it were someone else, I would not have made him see the sun of tomorrow. But he can't be done. Because I think of you, and what I can't do to you, I can't do to him. ”

"You say, 'What should I do?' Teach me. ”

Long Yuheng got up early and rode to the county seat, but Xue Qing ignored him yesterday, making him very uncomfortable and didn't sleep well all night. He thought about it, he must coax her today, otherwise it will be too uncomfortable. Newcastle

My sister got up late, so she went to the county seat early, bought more things she liked, and coaxed her well at noon, and then obediently, she didn't dare to make a second time. Don't be in a hurry, as long as you can stay with her in the plum garden, are you afraid that there will be no hope in the future?

Afraid that Xue Qing would get up early, he was in a hurry along the way, and then he had been waiting at the gate of the main courtyard, but by noon, he hadn't seen her come out. On weekdays, no matter how late she gets, she will get up on time for lunch.

Thinking of yesterday, the cook said that the young lady asked for wine, she shouldn't be drunk. Long Yuheng couldn't help but worry, his sister didn't drink, and she didn't let him drink on weekdays.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally couldn't help it, carefully pushed open the door and walked into the yard, came to the front of the house, knocked lightly on the door, and said, "Sister, are you up?" ”

Seeing that there was no response, he shouted a little louder: "Sister, are you up?" ”

Still no response.

"Sister, sister......" The knock on the door became urgent, there can't really be an accident, he shouted loudly, "Sister, if you don't make a sound, I'm in!" ”

After screaming a few more times, there was still no response, Long Yuheng strengthened his eyes, closed his eyes, and slammed open the door. He was ready to be scolded by his sister, as long as his sister was willing to talk to him. However, the expected reproach did not come.

Long Yuheng opened his eyes, where was the shadow of Xueqing, and ran inside, there was still no one, now he was really anxious: "Sister, sister......"

His gaze swept around the room and found a brocade box on the table, along with a letter on it. He suddenly had a very bad premonition: his sister really didn't want him anymore.

He walked over to the table, picked up the envelope with trembling fingers, and took out the note inside. He didn't dare to look at it, he could already guess what was written, but he had to read it, it was the only clue left by his sister.

After struggling repeatedly, he still opened the note, and Juanxiu's handwriting was displayed in front of him:

"Yuheng:

You've grown up, and it's time for you to live independently.

I once asked you about your plans for the future, and you said you wanted to stay in Plum Garden. Now that you have grown up, I will hand over the plum garden to you. The title deed of the plum garden, the deed of sale of the subordinates, and the key to the treasury are all in the brocade box, and you must keep them properly.

I'm gone, I'm going home, back to my daddy, you don't have to look for me.

The plum garden was left to me by my stepmother, and I hope to manage it well, as long as you are diligent and steadfast, you can have no worries about food and clothing. ”

"Sister......" Long Yuheng regretted it, he really regretted it, he thought she would beat him and scold him, but she didn't. She chose what seemed to hurt him the least, but it actually hurt the most. He wanted to stay in the plum garden, because the plum garden had her, and without her plum garden, the empty plum garden, what was the point of keeping it.

However, he could only stay, because she said that if he wanted to run the plum garden, if he left without permission, even if he found her, she would not be happy. And he didn't dare to leave, what if she came back when he left? But if he doesn't go to him, what will he do, wait, when?

Long Yuheng once again fell into the battle between heaven and man, as the so-called one wrong step and one wrong step, he only made one wrong step, and he made her angry. Then he didn't have the cheekiness to coax her yesterday, so he ran away from her. What to do later, what to do right, he is undecided.

Long Yuheng hesitated for a long time, read and read the letter again, and looked through the contents of the brocade box again, and finally decided to stay in the plum garden and wait for her to come back. She said that if she wanted him to take care of the plum garden, then he would wait for her here, and when she came back, she would see a different plum garden.

Xue Qing has already walked out of Fugui County and headed for the direction of Yuezhou. This time she was alone, and she only brought enough silver taels and flower language, and rode out on her horse.

The income from Meiyuan's land was enough to cover expenses, and she left five hundred taels of silver and other items in the treasury for Long Yuheng, and she took the rest of the money with her. She doesn't know where to go next, and she doesn't know how long she will have to drift, and she can't do it without money, which she has fully realized when she was in Jiaozhou.

She didn't take Bingyan's ashes with her, but quietly hid them, and she burned enough paper money for him before leaving. Because her first stop wanted to go to Wanjian Villa to attend the wedding of You Lie and Jin Xueyan, it was too unlucky to carry the ashes.

It turns out that she still has a plum garden to hide, but now she has nowhere to go anyway, so let's go back and have a look. When she leaves Wanjian Villa and finds a suitable place to settle, she can quietly return to the plum garden to retrieve his ashes.

Xue Qing looked at her appearance and couldn't help but smile bitterly, since when did she become a deserter, as long as she has a problem that she doesn't want to face, she chooses to escape.

At the beginning, because of Luo Rong, she chose to flee before dawn, but at that time there was Qiao Anping; At the beginning, she was highly poisoned, and she chose to escape with Bingyan; And now, because she didn't know how to face Long Yuheng, she fled before dawn. Only this time, she was really alone.
