Chapter 6: Carrying Faith

Damn it!

Damn it!!

Lying on his back on the couch in the room, the anger in Xie An's stomach still did not diminish in the slightest.

Even to say that feelings or something don't matter at all?

Although Xie An knew very well that the reason why the woman named Liang Qiuwu chose to marry him was only because she possessed her innocent body, and secondly, she was not the culprit who caused her to fall into this embarrassing situation, and her feelings or something did not exist at all.

But Xie An still never expected that she would open the skylight and say those words, and what made Xie An even more annoyed was that she would have to arrange the road for him to take in the future.

So what is he Xie An?

Breed for the Liangqiu family and continue the bloodline?

Damn it!

To be honest, Xie An was also a little guilty about having a relationship with Liang Qiuwu by mistake, although he didn't mean to take advantage of it at the time, but that woman was too strong...... Ahem, it's just that there was some misunderstanding in the middle.

But in the final analysis, Xie An also had a relationship with the woman when she couldn't maintain normal consciousness, because for the woman who didn't leave the cabinet, this kind of thing was undoubtedly fatal, although it was not out of her will, but it would also be pointed at by outsiders.

For this reason, when Liang Qiu Wu asked for a gift, Xie An had already realized that he and her future children would definitely be surnamed Liang Qiu, Xie An didn't care much about this, after all, he was an orphan since he was a child, and Xie Yi, as a surname, was just written by the caregiver of the orphanage, and it didn't have much commemorative significance, however, that woman turned out to be so excessive......

"Damn, don't look down on people!"

Cursing in a low voice, Xie An turned over and lay on his side on the couch, and then frowned Yizhou, it turned out that the saber tied to his waist rested on his ribs.

“……”

Silently looking at the saber for a while, a trace of anger flashed in Xie An's eyes, and with a stretch of his right hand, he ripped it off, only to hear a click, and the thin iron cable on the scabbard was torn off.

And just as he was holding the scabbard and preparing to throw it out, he suddenly remembered the scene where Liang Qiu Wu half-crouched and personally tied the sword for him.

“……”

The anger on Xie An's face gradually receded, and he sat up slowly, then shifted his position on the couch, allowing himself to lean against the wall on the other side of the bed.

"If others are a little kinder to you, you will treat them as family, this kind of problem has to be changed......" He let out a long sigh, holding the saber in his right hand and hanging to his side, Xie An raised his head until the back of his head touched the hard wall.

He, silently, looked at the roof.

"Tuk Tuk!" There was a soft knock on the door outside.

"Come in......" Still looking at the roof, Xie An said weakly.

With a creak, the door opened, and a good-looking maid walked into the house with broken steps, calling softly, "Uncle......"

Xie An glanced at the maid, and he recognized that this maid was the maid who had just cleaned up the room for him, and it seemed that she was still the woman's personal maid, called Yiyi.

"What? Is that woman finally going to kill me? Xie An said with a smile.

"Uncle said with a smile," the maid Yiyi bowed her head slightly, and said respectfully, "Miss invites my uncle to the hall for dinner......

"Don't go!" Xie An replied lightly, his tone undoubtedly resolute.

"Uncle......" Yi Yi opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but saw Xie An lying on his side, facing the wall.

Yi Yi sighed secretly, exited the house, and gently closed the door, reporting to her young lady.

At this time, in the side hall in the front yard of the Donggong Mansion, Liang Qiuwu, the owner of the mansion, was sitting at the table in the center of the hall, closing his eyes and recuperating.

In front of her, the round table was filled with sumptuous dishes, as well as two pairs of dishes and chopsticks.

"Miss......" Ying Ying walked to Liang Qiuwu's side, and Yi Yi bowed her head and called.

Liang Qiuwu slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Yiyi's empty behind, and said lightly, "Don't you want to come?" ”

"Well," Yi Yi nodded, and said carefully, "Uncle seems to be still sulking......"

"Oh!" Liang Qiu Wu answered, and then didn't speak again, just took care of his own meal, while Yi Yi waited on the side, sometimes looking at the unmanned dishes and chopsticks and frowning slightly, sometimes looking at the courtyard and frowning.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally, Liang Qiuwu finished eating the last grain of rice in the bowl.

She took the silk towel handed by her maid Yiyi and wiped her mouth gently, then stood up, walked in the direction of the mansion gate, and said lightly, "I'll go to the barracks to order!" ”

"Then this ......" Yi Yi glanced at the dishes on the table, she saw clearly, there were a few dishes on the table, which his young lady had never called the kitchen to prepare on weekdays, and she had never sandwiched a chopstick when she had just eaten, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"Withdrawn!" Liang Qiuwu said lightly, and disappeared in front of the hall door after leaving.

"Yes......" Yi Yi bowed her head slightly, sighed slightly in her heart, called the maid, and removed all the food on the table.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is evening.

Calling the servants of the mansion to serve dinner, Yiyi secretly glanced at Liangqiu Dance, who was still dressed in military uniform.

The dishes on the table are still the ones at noon, but they are re-burned in the kitchen, and the ones at noon have been distributed to the people in the house, including those that have not been touched.

"Call him!" Liang Qiuwu, who was sitting at the table, said lightly.

"Yes, young lady......" Yi replied, and walked a little hurried to the backyard, but it wasn't long before she returned.

Still alone......

"Still won't he come?" Liang Qiuwu frowned and asked.

"Yes, Miss......"

Liang Qiuwu frowned slightly, then his eyebrows gradually expanded, and he said lightly, "Regardless of him!" - I'm hungry, I'm back! - Inform the kitchen to lock the door today! ”

Yi Yi was shocked when she heard this, she had served Liang Qiu Dance for more than ten years, she knew her own lady's temper too well, and she could hear that her own lady's words were faintly angry.

Both of them are strong people......

Looking at Liang Qiu Wu, who didn't say a word and took care of his own meal, Yiyi sighed in his heart.

Needless to say, the whole Ji Kyoto knows what kind of character the future leader of Liangqiu in Donggong Mansion is.

And in the past ten years, Yiyi has never seen her own young lady soften and compromise on some issues related to principle.

And that one aunt ......

After Yiyi's careful observation for half a day, she realized that although this aunt seemed to be very easy-going, he actually had a very similar personality to her own young lady, and she wanted to forcibly reverse his thoughts like her own young lady......

Iyi held out no hope.

After all, before Liang Qiu finished eating, Xie An never appeared.

It's getting dark.

Liangqiu Dance, who had been training soldiers in the barracks for a day, bathed and rested early.

As usual, as a personal maid, Yiyi lay on the outside of the bed, quietly waiting for her young lady to fall asleep.

It is the rule that the serving master can only fall asleep when she is asleep.

"Miss?" Yi called softly.

Liang Qiu Wu did not respond, and seemed to be asleep.

Seeing this, Yi Yi got up cautiously, and in the darkness Suo Suo put on her clothes, she didn't dare to turn on the lamp, first, for fear of waking up her own young lady, and second, she didn't want her own young lady to know about what was going on.

Exiting the room with silent footsteps, and gently closing the door, Yi Yi glanced at the corridor diagonally across the room that was still lit by candles, which was where Xie An temporarily lived.

Looking at the front and back of the corridor, seeing that there was no one around, Yi Yi walked to Xie An's room, and when she walked to it, she found that the door was wide open and the room was empty.

Oh no, it can't be an escape, right?

Yi Yi was shocked, as Liang Qiuwu's most trusted confidant maid, she knew very well the cause of the whole incident, as well as the contradictions between the two, and she knew even more that her own young lady valued this matter.

If it is possible to save the relationship between the two at the moment, but if that stupid uncle dares to escape by night, then there is no room for recovery in this matter.

As soon as the morning dawns, the young lady who learns of this will definitely lead tens of thousands of soldiers of the Shenwu Battalion of the Eastern Army to search the whole city, and once they are captured, it will be an endless relationship......

According to the fierce character of his own young lady, he is bound to kill him and then kill himself.

Thinking of this, Yi Yi only felt a tightening in her chest, she grew up in the Donggong Mansion since she was a child, and she had long regarded Liangqiu Dance as a sister, just ask, how could she sit back and watch the people closest to her death.

Don't do anything stupid, that stupid aunt!

She was anxious in her heart, and she walked faster and faster, in the front yard and back yard, she walked through all the entrances and exits, until the servant guarding the door told her that there was no movement, and she did not dare to let go.

Could it be that stupid uncle climbed over the wall?

Looking up at the wall of the mansion that was more than three feet high, Yi Yi shook her head, she didn't think that the emaciated uncle could have the ability to turn over.

Whew, fortunately, it's still in the house......

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then wondered.

But where?

Suddenly, her eyes lit up.

Could it be ......

As if thinking of something, she hurried back the way she came, and walked to the kitchen in the side courtyard.

Sure enough, in the distance, Yi Yi saw a dark figure in front of the kitchen door and didn't know what to do, and faintly, a few small clicking sounds could be heard.

It can't be a lock picking, right?

Iyike remembers that during the evening meal, her young lady had instructed the kitchen maid to lock the kitchen at night today......

Obviously, the young lady wanted to teach this uncle a lesson, perhaps, and this uncle would sneak into the kitchen at night to find something to eat, after all, the young lady led this uncle to introduce the construction of the house during the day.

It's a pity......

"I can't pry it open, but Miss specially asked someone to use the thickest chain......" Yi Yi said softly after walking behind Xie An, who was picking the lock in embarrassment.

"I ...... Go! Xie An, who was concentrating on priing open the iron general in front of him, where would he have thought that someone was approaching behind him, hearing this, his heart trembled, and he threw the bamboo stick in his hand that was originally used to pick the wick far away, and looked at the white shadow with a pale face.

After half a pillar of incense, in Xie An's room, he gobbled up the food on the table, and on the side, Yi Yi smiled and watched quietly.

"Thank you, if you hadn't hidden this food for me, I'm afraid I'd have starved to death...... But next time, don't talk behind my back like you did just now, especially at night when you're still dressed in white...... It's going to scare people to death, really! ”

"The slave and maid remember......" Yiyi lowered her head slightly, then looked at Xie An's gobbling appearance, and said softly, "Uncle, eat it slowly, if it is not enough, the slave and maid can wake up the maid in the kitchen, naturally, I will help my aunt hide the ...... of the young lady."

"Enough is enough, these are enough," swallowed the meat in his mouth, Xie An picked up the cup and poured a few sips of water.

Suddenly, as if he realized something, he said displeasedly, "Although I am grateful to you, ...... Don't call me Uncle, I'm not! ”

"......" Yi Yi didn't speak, until Xie An swallowed the last bite of food and wiped her mouth with the silk scarf she handed over, then she whispered, "If my uncle is not sleepy, the slave maid wants to ask my uncle to go to a place with the slave maid......"

"Where?" Xie An asked suspiciously.

"Uncle will know when he goes, ......"

Looking at Yi Yi suspiciously, Xie An frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he chuckled and said, "Just for your meal, I will go to the Hades Palace!" - But don't call me Uncle! ”

"Yes, uncle."

“……”

Walking through the corridor in the backyard, Xie An followed Yi Yi who was holding a candle lamp, and after passing through a large dense bamboo forest, he came to the small ancestral hall in the depths of the bamboo forest.

"What is this?" Xie An looked at Yi Yi suspiciously.

Yi Yi protected the candle lamp on the gauntlet with his hand, and then gently pushed open the hidden door of the ancestral hall, and said softly, "This is where the ancestors of the Donggong Liangqiu Sect are located...... Uncle, please! ”

Frowning and looking at Yi Yi for a while, Xie An strode across the threshold, and then said with some displeasure, "In the middle of the night, what are you bringing me here for?" ”

Iyi didn't speak, but bowed respectfully towards the shrine where the sacrifice was enshrined, and then cautiously touched an extremely old scroll from the shrine.

"Uncle, take ......a closer look," he said, and Yi Yi slowly spread out the ancient scroll.

Xie An was unimpressed at first, and even sneered, but gradually, his expression became serious.

"Uncle, do you understand?"

"Understood...... What the? Xie An's reward was slightly hoarse, his eyes were fixed on the last row, and his face changed again and again.

Liangqiu dance, the twelfth generation head of the Liangqiu family, a clansman, two people......

Looking at Xie An, who looked sluggish, Yi Yi sighed faintly.

"In Miss's heart, there is nothing more important than the prosperity of Liangqiu, which is also the most important thing for all the children of the family...... The things that the young lady is carrying are heavier than my uncle imagined! ”

Glancing at Yiyi, Xie An was silent.

It turned out that it wasn't just herself, that stupid woman, did she regard herself as a sacrifice for the prosperous Liangqiu family?

That one...... Stupid woman!
