After seeing Cao Yu's power, the two didn't dare to say more.

At this time, Ling Xiu'er outside shouted Cao Yu, she was worried that Cao Yu's two punches would be invincible to four hands, so she came over to take a look.

Cao Yu was reluctant to be rough in front of Ling Xiu'er, so she restrained her anger and walked out, holding Ling Xiu'er's hand to leave.

However, as soon as he left the gate of Cao's house, Cao Liang trotted up and chased after him, panting, "Second brother, don't worry about that old woman, if it weren't for the Li family, I wouldn't let them live in, she is a crazy woman, what she said is a fart, don't you care!" ”

Cao Yu pulled Ling Xiu'er to take care of herself, ignoring Cao Li.

Cao Li's kung fu is an afterthought, and those who are familiar with him understand it.

Although Cao Yu refused, Cao Li still did not give up, and put on a kind face, which seemed a little disobedient, "Cao Yu, you see that the harvest in the field is not good now, can you help me go to the Yamen to do a good job, if this thing is done, I will thank you well, what do you think?" ”

Seeing that Cao Yu hadn't answered him yet, he continued, "I've been really short of money recently, the yamen is not recruiting, how about you drag me in?" ”

Cao Yu pulled Ling Xiu'er to speed up her pace.

"Cao Yu, think about it again!" Cao Liang shouted.

As the sun sets, the sun slowly sets, and the shadows of the two are getting longer and longer.

Cao Yu noticed that Ling Xiu'er didn't speak all the way, and her face revealed sadness, so she took the initiative to break this silence.

"Xiu'er, what's wrong with you? If you have something on your mind, you can tell me, it's even more uncomfortable to hold it in your heart. Cao Yu said softly.

Ling Xiu'er shook her head, but her eyes were still red, and tears fell like pearls. Cao Yu saw this scene in his eyes, and his heart was like a knife.

Cao Yu immediately hugged Ling Xiu'er, "Xiu'er, it's okay." ”

Ling Xiu'er was instantly moved by this warmth and choked up, "Xianggong, I'm fine, I just feel a little wronged." It is us who are clearly responsible, but we are always bullied by them. I'm okay myself, but I see you being humiliated, I, I'm ....." At the end of the sentence, Ling Xiu'er couldn't cry. She didn't know why, she just didn't want Cao Yu to suffer any grievances.

Cao Yu stroked Ling Xiu'er's head and comforted, "If you want, I'll go and drive them away now, I saw you just now, I'm afraid that I really make a move, I'm afraid that they will hurt you, then I'll be worried." ”

Ling Xiu'er understood in her heart, both grateful and happy, "Of course I know, but it's our house." ”

"That house is old and dilapidated, don't worry, when I come back from the exam and make money, we will go and buy a better house to live in, so that our good memories and bits and pieces will not be destroyed again, and it will only belong to the two of us." Cao Yu's tone was very firm.

Ling Xiu'er's sweetness at the moment slowly dissolved her sadness.

Gradually, the sun sets completely, night falls, the night covers the earth, a starry sky is dazzling, the moon is extraordinarily bright, those unbeautiful things will be unconsciously left behind, as if as long as you are in this beauty, the body and mind will enjoy everything.

Ling Xiu'er and Cao Yu returned to Zhang Ze's mansion, Zhang Ze said that he would use a wine banquet to see Cao Yu off, and by the way, he thanked Ling Xiu'er for helping him out of the siege.

The table was full of Han people, Sun smiled happily, holding Ling Xiu'er to sit beside her, and the aroma of wine spread throughout the room.

"Thank you very much, it is you who I am where I am today." Cao Yu looked sincere.

"Don't always thank us, but you can take the exam with peace of mind, I will take good care of Xiu'er for you, you come back, Xiu'er, you must still be beautiful and moving." Sun smiled.

Cao Yu immediately thanked Zhang Ze again.

"Don't thank me, I appreciate talents like you very much, and I'm very happy as a Bole, I hope you go well in the exam!" Zhang Ze smiled.

Gradually, laughter filled the room, and Ling Xiu'er seemed to have forgotten the terrible things that happened today, and she kept smiling on her face, charming and cute.

Cao Yu wanted to toast Zhang Ze.

When Ling Xiu'er saw it, she immediately took the wine glass, "Zhang Zhuangyuan, Cao Yu can't drink, I'll take care of him, and thank you for taking care of us." After saying that, he drank it heartily.

Seeing this, Sun Shi was moved, "The relationship between you and your husband is really good, and it will really make it easy for people to envy you." ”

Although all this is very beautiful, there are mixed feelings in Zhang Ze's heart.

Zhang Ze was a little obsessed when he saw Ling Xiu'er smiling so charmingly, but when he thought that she was married, he immediately withdrew his gaze.

The time is not long, not short, and it is a lot of fun.

After dinner, Zhang Ze called Cao Yu to the study.

"What's wrong?" Cao Yu asked.

Zhang Ze took out a dagger from the cabinet, the carving on the dagger was clearly visible, the outline was clear, and he pulled out the knife to be sharp and piercing.

Cao Yu wondered, "Isn't this a dagger?" ”

Zhang Ze smiled and nodded, "This dagger was carefully prepared for you by me, you have to go to the exam, then there may be danger on the road, this dagger is for you to use for self-defense, this dagger is small, light and sharp, you carry it with you just in case." ”

Cao Yu pondered for a moment and said with a smile, "I don't think it's necessary, I'm going to take the exam, it's not convenient to bring a knife." ”

"It's not right for you to think so, you forgot about the last time Gu Killer killed an outstanding talent, and I heard that something similar happened in the last exam, don't be too relaxed. Not only that, but I also have my personal guard, Ah Jiu, escort you all the way. ”

Cao Yu glanced at Ah Jiu, who was standing outside the door, his skin was dark, but he was strong, and his body exuded a martial arts atmosphere.

After thinking about it carefully, Cao Yu happily accepted Zhang Ze's kindness.

The next day, outside the door.

"You must take care of yourself on the road, don't worry about me, I'm here waiting for you to come back." Ling Xiu'er was a little reluctant.

Cao Yu hugged Ling Xiu'er into his arms, "I will definitely take good care of myself, it should be that you don't worry about me, Zhang Ze sent me a guard, he will protect me well, so you must rest assured." ”

"Well, then you must remember to write to me more, and by the way, tell me about the interesting things you encountered on the road, and I will also write to you and tell you about my situation, so that we can live together again." Ling Xiu'er smiled happily.

The corners of Cao Yu's mouth hooked, "Of course, our letters must not be missing, otherwise I will really miss you, after all, I have never been so far away from you." ”

Ling Xiu'er slowly hugged her tighter, "So, you must write a letter to report safety, I'll wait for you to come back!" ”

After saying goodbye, Cao Yu left in a carriage.

Ling Xiu'er kept looking at the carriage from afar, and she didn't go back until the carriage disappeared from her eyes.
