It wasn't until the water in the barrel gradually became cold that Gao Jun woke up from his sleep, he dried his body, and saw a set of Hou Jun's previous clothes on the wooden bench next to him, but they were washed by Liu Yuru, thinking in his heart, only Liu Yuru knew that this was his clothes.

It was already the middle of the night, and I had planned to sleep at Rod's again, but it was too disturbing, so I put on my clothes, walked to the drawing-room, and lay down on the bench.

As soon as the door rang, Liu Yuru had already woken up, she listened to Gao Jun walk in lightly and entered the bathroom, her ears have been paying attention to Gao Jun's movements inside, who knew that the sound of water inside only sounded slightly for a while, and there was no movement, and she didn't know what Gao Jun was doing inside.

At night, she came back in a tall horse, and fell asleep on the road unconsciously, and when she woke up, she found herself in a strange room, and a kind old woman came to her to take a bath, and she asked the old woman where this was, and the old woman said strangely, "Didn't my son Gao consult with you?" ”

As soon as she heard it, she understood what was going on, and she didn't ask anymore. It's just that after taking a bath under the waiter of the old woman, and seeing that the dark green official robe that Gao Jun wrapped around her was beside her, her heart moved, and she quickly took it over, and inspected it up and down, and finally she finally found a trace of being scraped by something sharp at the hem of the back of the robe. One of the silk threads had been removed, and the robe was slightly wrinkled.

Liu Yuru hurriedly found the dark green silk thread she found on the wall outside the firewood house, put it under the lamp and carefully compared, the color and texture were the same, and the length was also the same.

It happened that the old woman brought food into the living room and beckoned her to eat. While eating, she asked the old woman, "Old mother, what is the relationship between your son-in-law and you?" ”

The old mother smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I used to be just a beggar for food, and I fainted from hunger in a market in Rouge Mountain. The housekeeper is also the same hard-working person as me, and the Lot knife was taken in by the prince outside the Jade Gate. Over the years, he has been in charge of food and housing, and treats us as relatives. ”

After the old woman finished speaking, she asked Liu, "The girl must be the person our son values, otherwise he would have a house in the county, and he would have found such a good place for the girl here, and changed all the quilts and mattresses." Later, two daughters-in-law came, and they cleaned everything inside and out, and after the girl had eaten, she went to the room to sleep well. When Childe went out, he also said that he would go and tear down the firewood house on the edge of the village and let him tell you. ”

Since comparing the official robe of the tall man with the silk thread, the Liu family has already knew very well in her heart that this tall man is the Hou Jun she looks forward to day and night. The one buried at the head of the village must be the original tall man.

She couldn't think of what had happened in those days, only that there must be earth-shaking changes in them. Hou Jun didn't tell her clearly, and she couldn't ask. She knows better than anyone else the sinister nature of officialdom, and she must not have a little influence on Hou Jun's affairs because of her own negligence.

Thinking about getting along with him day and night in the future, if he still sees him as Hou Jun in his heart from time to time, it is inevitable that he will show flaws in his words, and there are so many outsiders around him, which is always not very safe. She made up her mind that from now on, she would regard him as a tall man, and it was she who left that Hou Jun far away. "It's just a name, it's just that person." She thought.

So after eating, first washed the official robe of the tall man, and then lay on the wide mahogany bed, all the bedding is new, the cover is loose and warm on the body is very comfortable, the old woman once came to ask if you want to leave the door for the tall man, she said, you don't have to leave the door, it is not safe at night. The mother-in-law said, how can the son-in-law come in without leaving the door? "You don't have to worry about it," she said. "Since that tall man can quietly jump out of a man-high barrier like a ghost, why can't he enter this courtyard wall? But the door of the main house was hidden.

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, Liu Yuru heard the conversation between Master Gao and his mother-in-law outside, and said that he really came in, and his heart was a little more steady. But when she was lying on the bed, she always felt that all this was too incredible, and Liu Yuru was guilty of thinking again.

As for his appearance, figure, and the degree of shock that these things can cause in the eyes of men, although it is not as serious as others say, at least he has not doubted it. Thinking of the rumors, the life of the original tall man seems to be very formless, and there are no lack of rumors about attracting bees and butterflies, if he is not Hou Jun in thousands of miles, then all this he has done to himself is just a hunting behavior.

Thinking about it like this, I felt a burst of fear, and I felt that in the firewood house that night, because of excessive sadness, and I missed Hou Jun, could that ghost be my own hallucination? Besides, the same silk thread can be found anywhere, what if the silk thread pinched from the wattle of the barrier is randomly blown from elsewhere by the strong wind?

Listening to the silence in the bathroom, she suddenly remembered that morning, she and Hou Jun fell out of the shack, which was the only time she saw Hou Jun's body with only an inch of body. Liu Yuru gently turned over and got up from the bed, tiptoeing step by step, the door of the bathroom was just hidden, and the inside was often steaming, the door shaft was not dry, she pushed, silently opened a small crack.

She leaned closer, suppressed her heartbeat, and looked through the crack in the door, and saw the tall man lying in the barrel, water soaked to his chest, sleeping soundly. At a glance, Ryu saw the striking birthmark on his chest - like a heart that was unsteady on its feet.

When Liu Pingru saw this, he was completely relieved, with a smile on his face, as bright as a peach blossom, he jumped back to his bed and lay down contentedly. Remembering that the water in the bucket was cold, this tall man didn't want to catch a cold, this guy had already come out, and he lay down on the bench for a while, and after a while, he made a sound.

At three o'clock, the old woman had already gotten up, was busy in the kitchen to make breakfast, and came to knock on the window to call someone. Gao Jun jumped up from the bench, opened the door, and brought the meal into the living room, Liu Yuru didn't know when he got up, just came out of the bedroom, facing this tall man who didn't tell him the truth, he didn't say anything, sat down and ate together, and saw that the time was approaching, and both of them were going to the ranch, so they walked out together.

At night, the charcoal fire was tied to the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw Gao Jun and Liu come out, he seemed to be very excited.

Just a horse, Liu Yuru thought about how to arrange it for Lord Gao, only to see Gao Jun untie the horse, lead out of the yard, and follow out. At this time, Luo Dedao, Luo Quan, Liu Wu, and Feng Zheng came out together in the courtyard next door.

Gao Jun grabbed Liu Yuru's waist, and the other arm wrapped her leg, Liu Shi felt that his body was light, thinking that the buried tall man would never have such strength, and he had been gently put on the horse's back by the tall man. The mother-in-law greeted inside, closed the door, Gao Jun took the charcoal, and just as those people also approached, they walked out of the village together.

Feng Zheng saw Gao Jun walking and said, "My lord, why don't you give you my horse to ride?" ”

"That's not good, you can take care of Miss Yang, and besides, I don't worry about Madame riding a horse by herself, just take a walk."

Feng Zheng remembered that Yang Yatou also had to go to the ranch, so he rode a horse to pick it up. Out of the village, there was a sound of horses' hooves approaching behind, Gao Jun thought it was Feng Zheng, and did not look back. When someone who didn't want to come approached, he reined in his horse and greeted, "Lord Gao, are you going to escape the famine?" At first glance, it was Lu Mujian.

Lu Mu said, "Lord Yue and Wan Tuan Guan are behind. ”

As soon as he heard this, Gao Junqi didn't come to one place, and said in his heart that you are a giant dereliction of duty, why don't you have to talk about it today. Thinking of Yue Qinghe, it is rare for Pastoral Supervisor Yue to come to the ranch so early today, it must be that his brother-in-law revealed some news, and he came to support Wan Shiju.

Turning his head to look at Liu Wu, his face was red and swollen, and he was about to erupt, and his heart was very strange, so he didn't ask much. After a while, I heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from behind, thinking that it should be Yue Mu Jian and they were coming, and they wanted to turn around and answer, but who knew that the horse team galloped directly past them, and they didn't even stop. From the back, I saw Lord Zhengshangyue, Wan Tuan Guan and a few entourages. The heart said that it was a big shelf, he sneered as he walked under the horse, and said to Liu Wudao, "Lord Liu, I don't know how you should deal with the matter of Wantuan Official?" ”

"Hmph, dereliction of duty, don't flog him for three hundred, it's hard to understand the hatred in my heart!"

"Okay, if the "Stable Pastoral Order" does have this paragraph, why should I feel sorry for him, a little regimental officer."

Feng Zheng just picked up Yang Yatou and caught up, the two were still riding on the same horse, when they came, they just saw that the ox cart that picked up the female shepherd in the village had just arrived, and the female shepherds who had gathered together in the morning to wait for the car were chattering and grabbing seats, and suddenly saw Yang Yatou sitting on the horse of a young shepherd, and couldn't help but open her mouth wide in surprise, and Wang Cailian, who was mixed in the crowd, also saw this scene, and her heart was also shocked.

Feng Zheng heard the conversation between Master Gao and Master Liu, and reminded, "Lord Gao, the Wantuan official is the brother-in-law of Pastor Yue...... Adults must be carefully calculated to be powerful. ”

When Liu heard this, he was afraid that Gao Jun didn't know the severity, there was a way to crush people to death at the level of the official, Gao Jun couldn't figure out the grade of the official a few days ago, and he was not as familiar with the things in the officialdom as he was, would he make himself passive, and he sat on the horse and said, "Gao Daren ......" and wanted to be too nervous, and there was something obviously inappropriate, so he only stopped after saying half a sentence. Gao Jun raised his head, looked at Liu's gaze with deep concern, his heart was hot, looked into her eyes and said, "Don't worry." ”

On the seventh or eighth mile road, a few people arrived talking and laughing, helped Liu Yuru off the horse, and said to Feng Zheng, "You are at the gate, when the ox cart comes, just say that it is my order, all the female shepherds should not go to the grass house first, but find a random place nearby to wait." After saying that, he walked to the big house where the ranch officials discussed on weekdays, and Liu Wu followed him in.

Feng Zheng took the order, went to the gate and made a stop, waiting for the ox cart. When Yang Yatou saw Liu Yuru, she ran forward very affectionately, holding hands and talking, only one night's kung fu, but she didn't seem to have seen her for some days. The two of them listened to Lord Gao's instructions, and when they saw that there was an idle room next to the council hall, and there was no one, Yang Yatou said to Liu Yuru, why don't we go there to rest, so they went in together.

Gao Jun and Liu Wu stepped into the hall and saw that the officials of all sizes in the ranch had arrived, and some of them also smelled a different smell from the demeanor of Liu Wu, Lord Gao and Lord Yue, and they were not sure, and they were suspicious there, only Lord Lu looked calm and had nothing to do with it.

Start to order, and everyone has arrived.

Yue Qinghe cleared his throat and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, in the last snowstorm, my herd suffered a lot of losses, more than 100 horses and foals froze to death, but with the full cooperation of your colleagues, rescued the horses and made up for the shortcomings, and finally passed this pass. ”

Lu Mu said, "What Lord Yue said is that since the establishment of our Liu Zhongmu, all my colleagues below me, under the leadership of Lord Yue, have indeed undergone earth-shaking changes, of course, this is also inseparable from the cooperation of all the colleagues here, but I personally think that Lord Yue is a ...... who has made great contributions", a few people below echoed, Gao Jun glanced at it slightly, and took a look at who is usually closer to Yue Qinghe, and sneered in his heart, and listened to what Lu Mujian said.

Pastoral Supervisor Yue's face was slightly smug, and he stretched out his hand to interrupt Lu Shanglou's words, the foreshadowing in front was enough, he changed the topic and said, "Here I want to tell you about Pastoral Supervisor Gao, after the heavy snowfall, Yue Mou was worried about the personnel in the ranch, and he couldn't personally go to Xizhou to report to Lord Guo about the situation of the pasture's anti-snow, it was Lord Gao who worked tirelessly and went to Xizhou in person to truthfully report the situation of my Liu Zhongmu to Lord Guo in Xizhou, and Yue was deeply grateful here. ”

Gao Jun said, "What the adults praise is really within the official duties, and if you want to say more, you and I will seem to be angry." ”

Supervisor Yue said yes, and said to Liu Wudao, "However, Supervisor Liu, I have to say two words to you, I have to say that we still have some leaks in this snow disaster, such as the warmth of the horses, which has always been the responsibility of Lord Liu...... Of course, Lord Liu is far away from home, and it is inevitable that he will not be able to take care of the affairs of the pastor, but in the future, he will ......"

Wan Tuanguan sat down, looked at it coldly for a while, and saw that his brother-in-law easily controlled the situation, and said in his heart, he had to be a brother-in-law, how could it be so easy to change to someone else.

Who knew that Liu Wu was very dissatisfied, stood up from his seat, and said, "My lord criticizes below, and there is nothing to say below, but it is difficult for the lower officials to agree with the loss of the snow disaster as mine!" ”
