It was almost evening when Zhang Xiaoyan returned home.

The old urchin and Jinsang were originally worried that she had gone to the Ten Thousand Death Cliff, and the old urchin also planned to go and see it, but Jinsang stopped her for various reasons.

Knock knock!

There was a knock on the door, interrupting the sadness of the two.

Mrs. Chen opened the door and was relieved to see Zhang Xiaoyan carrying good wine and food, looking extremely happy.

"Stinky girl, where have you been all day, we are worried to death." Jinsang saw Zhang Xiaoyan deliberately nagging, and glanced at her when she walked over.

Zhang Xiaoyan smiled clearly, brought good wine and food to the old naughty boy, put the things away, and said with a hippie smile: "The master has finished reading the formation, if he finishes reading it, I will take it and copy it to you tomorrow." Master, I went to visit some old friends today, and when I came back, I brought you some good wine and food. ”

"You didn't go to the Cliff of Ten Thousand Deaths!" The old urchin didn't believe it at all.

Zhang Xiaoyan looked at the old urchin's face, and simply did not avoid this question, and boldly admitted: "I went, I went early in the morning, and I saw the fat man taking a man named Ma Rui to collect medicine in the nearby mountains." Seeing the man in black from the galloping country, the two also followed to the Ten Thousand Death Cliff. ”

The old naughty boy looked Zhang Xiaoyan up and down, but he didn't see any injuries on her body, so he was a little relieved.

"Master, I'm not that stupid, how can I be tough with so many of them. I just listened to them secretly, and the fat man and Ma Rui were going to find medicine for the hunchbacked old man. From this point of view, Hei Kui's poison has definitely not been lifted, even if the hunchbacked old man is alive, his internal strength cultivation will not be much better. Zhang Xiaoyan poured wine for the master as she spoke.

Mrs. Chen had already poured the dishes she brought back into the bowl, the dishes were still hot, and the fragrance came to her for a while, and the old naughty boy couldn't help but move her chopsticks.

Jin Sang watched from the side, and listened for a long time without seeing a sound. As soon as the hunchback is removed, the day when the second brother will leave will be closer.

Zhang Xiaoyan is not blind, so she can naturally see Jinsang's mother-in-law's worries. There is everything in the mountains, but a hard life is not something that a woman can live in, and I believe that the old naughty boy does not want Granny Jinsang to suffer such hardships.

"Master, are you going back?" She simply asked what Granny Jinsang wanted to ask.

Jin Sang's heart tightened, his hand holding the cup trembled a little, and he looked at the second brother nervously.

The old naughty boy's heart was also tight, and he didn't want to escape from this problem. However, reality is always cruel, and a comfortable life never belongs to people like him.

Putting down the cup, he tried to relax and said, "The things here have been done, even if the master wants to stay, I'm afraid the people above won't want to." In the past few days, you have thought about what you need to bring back to your father and mother, and I have prepared it in advance. ”

"Yes, master!" Zhang Xiaoyan nodded and secretly glanced at Jinsang's mother-in-law.

Jin Sang's heart was sour, and after drinking a glass of wine, he buried himself in his meal and didn't say a word from beginning to end.

After dinner, the old urchin took out the notebook, stuffed it into Zhang Xiaoyan's hand, and went back to the room.

Tonight, Jin Sang did not enter the old urchin's room, but sat alone in the room, looking at the lamp in a daze for a whole night.

Zhang Xiaoyan stood at the window and saw it clearly, no one wanted to bear the pain of parting. Presumably, the old urchin didn't feel good tonight, and the whole yard was dead.

Ay......

There were so many things that had happened that day, her mind was messy, she lay down in bed exhausted, and finally fell asleep in a daze.

In the early hours of the morning, she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, and she turned over vigilantly and sat up, only to find that it was none other than Granny Jinsang. Granny Jinsang's eyes were a little red, and she could see that she had just cried, and she knew why she didn't say anything.

"Mother-in-law, sit down!" Zhang Xiaoyan pulled someone to sit on the edge of the bed.

"The girl came to disturb you so late, mother-in-law......" Jinsang wanted to speak and stopped, and the soreness in her heart made her breathless.

"Mother-in-law, I know what you want to say, and you know the stubborn temper of the master. It's a mountainous place, it's poor, and he just doesn't want you to suffer. While comforting Jinsang, Zhang Xiaoyan also had an idea in her heart, although it was not a particularly good idea, it was better than the two of them being so far apart.

Whining......

Jinsang finally couldn't help crying again, so many years of missing, so many years of waiting, although she told herself early in the morning that it was enough to have this dull day. However, people can't escape greed, and greed can go on like this.

"Mother-in-law, don't cry yet, I have a way, but I don't know if it's okay?" Zhang Xiaoyan couldn't bear to see Jinsang's mother-in-law like this.

As soon as he heard that there was a way, Jinsang immediately stopped crying. looked at Zhang Xiaoyan with anticipation, hoping to get a satisfactory answer.

Zhang Xiaoyan carefully sorted out the clues, and then told Jinsang what she thought. After listening to this, Jinsang patted his head with a sudden realization.

"Girl, your brain is still spinning fast. You're right, the second brother is afraid that I won't adapt to life in the mountains, so I can live in the city, at least I can go up the mountain and have a look at him when I think of him. Jinsang thought about all this beautifully, but he didn't know that once the old urchin entered the mountain, there were very few opportunities to come out.

Seeing Jinsang's yearning expression, Zhang Xiaoyan had to pour a basin of cold water on her: "Mother-in-law, don't think about everything too beautifully." When I met my master on the mountain, we persuaded him for a long time but he refused to go down, and if he hadn't been seriously injured and had to go down the mountain, he wouldn't have been able to live in my house at all. And now, the mountain has long been uneven, and even if you go up, you can't find anyone. ”

"It's okay, as long as it's better than anything near him." Although Jin Sang was a little disappointed in his heart, he still had some illusions about everything.

"Mother-in-law, do you blame the master in your heart?" Zhang Xiaoyan asked weakly.

Jin Sang smiled relievedly: "No, he has too many involuntary bodies in his life, and sometimes being too strong may not be a good thing." Girl, you ......"

Zhang Xiaoyan can probably guess what Jinsang's mother-in-law is going to say, no matter where she is not strong enough, she will be constantly bullied and suppressed. And, the stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility, but she would rather choose the latter, at least she can hold her chest up and be a man.

In those years, I still remember what life the family had, if a person suffers, her relatives can live a good life, she would rather suffer herself.

"Mother-in-law, you don't have to worry too much about me. If you want, I can buy you a plot of land in the village, or arrange for you to live in the city. She patted her mother-in-law's hand, knowing that her mother-in-law didn't treat herself as an outsider.
