Chapter 043: The Eve of Parting
"After Ye Shaoxia called the old man and the family to go back, he met a man in black on the road, who looked very well-behaved, but there was a black fire mark in the center of his eyebrows, and I didn't know what kind of demon magic was cast on me, there has always been a black shadow following me and so on, forcing the two family members to be scared and lose their souls, but I didn't expect that when I was ugly, there was a man in white again, without saying a word, I picked up a fan and injured the old man like this. ”
Jia Zhengting still had palpitations at this moment, thinking that the man waved the fan over, he heard the sound of his bones shattering, and he really didn't want to experience it a second time.
Seeing that Ye Tao was silent, Ye Lao said with concern: "What's the matter?
Ye Tao paused again when he picked up his pen, faintly hearing his self-blame, "I owe Miss Zhao an apology." ”
"Don't worry, I don't think Zhao Yatou will be so easily angry, she may just be angry for a while, you have known each other for so long, you should know her,"
Saying that, Ye Lao came to Ye Tao's side, looked at the prescription, and saw if anything had fallen, Ye Tao put down his pen and handed the prescription to Ye Lao, Ye Lao nodded, "That's all,"
He turned around and handed it to Mrs. Jia, and instructed: "This medicine should be taken every morning and evening, which will help Lord Jia recover as soon as possible."
Mrs. Jia took it and thanked Ye Lao again, Ye Tao got up and said, "Senior, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first, and Master Jia will bother my seniors to take care of it." ”
Ye Lao also knew that he was in a hurry to find Zhao Yi, squinted his eyes meaningfully and smiled, and said, "Mmmm, go ahead, don't let Zhao Yatou sulk all the time"
Hearing Ye Lao just say his thoughts, Ye Tao smiled awkwardly, and then left Jishitang.
It was almost dusk outside, and the time of the day was spent on treating Jia Zhengting, the snowy sky was so pure that people couldn't help but want to take a few more looks, Ye Tao looked at it, and saw a paper kite with purple light flying towards him with its wings, Ye Tao reached out to pick it up, and the paper kite opened up into a piece of letter paper in the palm of his hand.
Ye Tao looked anxious after reading it, and quickly walked towards Mingyue Tower. When he arrived in front of Mingyue Tower, a childish voice called him excitedly: "Big brother, big brother!"
Ye Tao saw that Xiao Li was wearing a pure cotton jacket, and the red floral prints looked very festive. Mrs. Jiang behind her was also dressed tightly, Xiao Li ran over with a smile on her face, and Ye Tao squatted down when she saw it, as tall as Xiao Li.
Stroking Xiao Li's little head, Ye Tao asked with concern: "It's so cold today, why did Xiao Li come over?"
"Xiaoli heard that the eldest brother and Sister Zhao are leaving, Xiaoli has come to see you,"
Later, Mrs. Jiang also said: "After this child goes back, she misses Mingyue Tower, saying that there are people she misses here, and Shaoxia has saved the people of Xicheng, and she hasn't thanked Shaoxia yet!"
Ye Tao smiled and responded: "Mrs. Jiang doesn't have to worry about it, this is what Wuzhi disciples should do,"
Mrs. Jiang listened and nodded, and Ye Tao said again: "It's cold outside, let's go in first!"
Mrs. Jiang bowed her head when she heard this, Ye Tao got up, but Xiao Li suddenly asked, "Why don't you see Sister Zhao?"
Ye Tao paused for a moment, and said uncertainly: "Miss Zhao should be in the house." ”
Xiao Li didn't hear Ye Tao's uneasiness, and went to the house with an "oh".
After entering the tower, Xiao Li ran to scare the Peach Blossom Shopkeeper before asking, "Peach Blossom Shopkeeper, where is Sister Zhao?"
The peach blossom shopkeeper pointed to the second floor, and Ye Tao saw Zhao Yi sitting quietly on the second floor, she chose the position next to the fence, but she was staring at the bird-patterned wine glass in her hand in a daze.
Xiao Li saw that the eldest brother was looking upstairs, and he also looked over, and saw that it was Sister Zhao, dressed in cold and bright red, sitting on the second floor, with her fox fur next to her.
Xiao Li's mind is simple, and he only thinks that Sister Zhao is really good-looking when she is in a daze, her little face is white, her hair is long, and she sits quietly! No wonder the big brother keeps watching.
"Sister Zhao!" Xiao Li deliberately shouted loudly, upstairs Zhao Yi suddenly lost his mind, the wine glass in his hand slipped from his hand, and smashed to the table with a "bang", Zhao Yi hurriedly picked it up, put it away, and looked downstairs after concentrating, but his face was confused, and when he saw Xiao Li, he showed a smile,
"It's a little departure!"
Xiao Li smiled, put aside his mother's hand and ran upstairs,
Ye Tao and Mrs. Jiang also followed, Xiaoli went upstairs and sat next to Zhao Yi, seeing that Xiaoli's face was fat, Zhao Yi couldn't help pinching it, and quipped: "Xiaoli's face is fat again, you don't love beauty anymore?"
Xiao Li grinned and said: "Anyway, no matter how beautiful it is, it is not as beautiful as Sister Zhao, so it will be fatter, and Xiao Li will be as tall as Sister Zhao." ”
"Flim tongue, what about my mother?" Zhao Yi was amused by Xiao Li's words, Xiao Li looked behind him, "Mother has also come to see Sister Zhao!"
Zhao Zhaoyi greeted Mrs. Jiang with a smile, but when she saw Ye Tao, she changed her appearance, and complained: "Why did Ye Shaoxia come back?
"I'm looking for Miss Zhao for something!"
The two of them were stunned for a moment when they said in unison, and Xiao Li looked at the two of them cutely looking for each other, and immediately smiled.
thoughtfully, he smiled evilly: "Sister Zhao and the eldest brother have more and more tacit understanding, and even the words are the same!"
Zhao Yi pursed her lips and quibbled: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense, are you hungry?"
"Hungry!" Xiao Li opened his mouth and said, Zhao Yi replied without thinking: "If you are hungry, go to your brother Xiao Zhang, I don't know how to cook." ”
"I will, I'll come!" Zhao Yi, who Ye Tao said this, was speechless, and looked at him in surprise,
"I promised Miss Zhao, I will take care of your food, Miss Zhao will forget?" Ye Tao said with a light smile.
Zhao Yi looked at Ye Tao in amazement, he seemed to have nothing, Ye Tao was so good-tempered, it just so happened that she also wanted to make peace with him, didn't this follow her wishes!
Zhao Yi said without thinking: "It seems that there is such a thing, it just so happens that I am also hungry!"
Zhao Yi rubbed her stomach as she spoke, and suddenly felt hungry, she sat here all day today and waited for him to come back, but she waited for several hours, and she was disheartened.
Ye Tao went downstairs as he spoke, Zhao Yi loosened the button on Xiao Li's neckline, and said, "It's warmer in the room, don't be stuffy." ”
Xiao Li said happily: "Okay!"
Mrs. Jiang looked at Zhao Yi with a look of relief, "Thank you Miss Zhao for taking care of Xiaoli a few days ago, Miss Zhao is indeed like a gentle big sister,"
Zhao Yi burst out laughing and said, "At my age, many people call me sister,"
Zhao Yi said that in Wan Kill and even in the Demon Realm, she is the Great Protector of Wan Kill, and she is also the eldest sister of her sisters, and most of the underworld people who Wan Kill call her eldest sister, not the Great Protector.
Mrs. Jiang smiled: "Yes, yes!"
Zhao Yi: "Madam, does Mr. Jiang have any news?" Zhao Yi asked casually, Mrs. Jiang suddenly became sad, and sighed: "I don't know if I bring a message to the family, so I know that I am in a hurry with Xiaoli." ”
Xiaoli tugged at the corner of Zhao Yi's clothes, and the poor relatives asked, "Does Sister Zhao know when Daddy will come back?"
Zhao Yi didn't know how to answer, she opened her mouth a few times but didn't know what to do, thinking about comforting her, and said: "Since the city lord is already well, Mr. Jiang will come back soon, at most a month, the little parting is too sad."
Xiao Li nodded obediently, Zhao Yi chatted with Mrs. Jiang for a while, Ye Tao made a table of delicious dishes, Xiao Li specially gave Ye Tao a place and let Ye Tao sit next to Zhao Yi.
During the banquet, Zhao Yi sandwiched another dish for Xiaoli, Xiaoli quickly finished eating, and when Zhao Yi added vegetables to her, Xiaoli refused: "Sister Zhao, Xiaoli doesn't want to leave, I'm full."
Zhao Yi looked at the rice bowl in front of Xiao Li, and said in surprise: "Xiao Li, you haven't finished half a bowl!"
"Xiao Li is going to accompany the peach blossom shopkeeper to eat another meal in a while, Sister Zhao and big brother eat slowly, Xiao Li won't bother you!" Xiao Li said playfully sticking out his tongue and immediately ran away.
Seeing this, Mrs. Jiang also said: "It's getting late, I also have to talk to the peach blossom shopkeeper about the accommodation, Ye Shaoxia, Miss Zhao, the two of you use it slowly." ”
Zhao Yi saw that someone had run away, so he hurriedly called, but Xiaoli's footsteps still clicked away.
Seeing that Zhao Yi was absent-minded, Ye Tao picked up the chopsticks that were placed flat at the mouth of the bowl, and asked in a flat tone, "Miss Zhao has something on her mind?"
Zhao Yi looked at Ye Tao and saw that he was focused on eating and didn't look at her, so it was okay, so as not to look at each other again.
After being silent for a while, Zhao Yi opened his mouth and said tentatively: "Actually, Jiang Shiren won't come back, right?"
Ye Tao didn't have a big reaction, but his eyes flickered, put down his chopsticks, exhaled slowly, and said slowly: "On the day we first arrived in Yongle City, Mr. Jiang took us into the city, and then a patient appeared, who was impermanent..."
Ye Tao skimmed over and said, "To be exact, Mr. Jiang will come back, maybe when our senior brothers are gone, he will come back!"
"You know that he framed the city lord and pushed Xicheng to ruin, why did you save Xiaoli and her mother, and you still hid the truth from them. ”
Although he didn't understand Ye Tao's actions, Zhao Yi had no intention of denying it.
"Xiaoli will not be influenced by her father, the eldest mother will not be disappointed in her husband, maybe he will change his ways, this is what I want. Ye Tao said sincerely.
Zhao Yi calmly looked at Ye Tao's calm gaze, and suddenly his words were choked, and he didn't know what to say.
"Your choice is always to give someone a chance, so that's why I'm able to talk to you, and that's why you're making me angry, and finally why we're free. ”
Zhao Yi's words made Ye Tao's calm heart ripple slightly, "This time I misunderstood Miss Zhao in Xia, and there are indeed inconsiderate places in Xia, Jia Zhengting disturbed Miss Zhao several times, and Miss Zhao was a little unhappy in her heart, and she should be considerate of Xia!"
"I don't mean not to let Shaoxia save Jia Zhengting, yes, it was Shaoxia who relied on the words of Mrs. Najia and that girl, and decided that I hurt Jia Zhengting, which made me feel uncomfortable"
Zhao Yi squirmed as she spoke, her face flushed slightly, and she was ashamed.
Ye Tao felt that Zhao Yi like this was real, the corners of his mouth raised an arc, and he smiled briskly, "Okay, I'll apologize to Miss Zhao here."
"For the sake of this table of food, I don't want your apology, it just snowed today, I don't know if there is a moon tonight, Ye Shaoxia and I will go outside to have a look!"
Zhao Yi's gaze turned from a table of delicacies to the outside of the house, and Ye Tao said, "Okay!"
The two got up and walked in the yard, the moon was like practice, the moonlight was like a rainbow, and the grass and trees in the yard lost their color in the moonlight.
Ye Tao said: "A snow washes away the fiber and dust, and the bright moon loses plum blossoms"
Zhao Yi listened to a whim and asked, "Ye Shaoxia, if you want you to say what I look like, what do you think I look like the most?"
When Ye Tao heard this, he said, "Like the moon." ”
He didn't even think about it, Zhao Yike was curious, "Why is it like the moon?"
Ye Tao looked at the moon and said: "The moon has a beautiful legend of Chang'e, and the appearance of Miss Zhao is also like a beautiful legend in the future." ”
Saying that, he looked at Zhao Yi again, and Zhao Yi said, "Is there anything else?"
"The moonlight is white and soft, but it is too hazy for earthly people to never understand what the moon is like, and below it is also the earthly people. ”
Zhao Yi was stunned in the blink of an eye, naturally knowing the meaning of Ye Tao's words.
Zhao Yi smiled bitterly and said: "We have too many contradictions, from identity to temperament, and the Southern Ghost Immortal have seen me a long time ago, you are the senior brother of Wuzhi, since he saw me with you, he will definitely go to Wuzhi, Ye Shaoxia will inevitably listen to some education, maybe someone will tell you what you want to know!"
Ye Tao was still unwilling to listen to this, "Why do you have to be told by someone else, instead of Miss Zhao herself?"
"You just think I have a hard time, did Ye Shaoxia receive a letter from his master?"
Ye Tao looked at Zhao Yi strangely, how could she know so clearly, but she still nodded.
"The letter said that Miss Gao was in prison"
Ye Tao was shocked again and nodded again.
"My master is in retreat, if Bloodthirsty really leaves Jiuzhi, I have to go back, Ye Shaoxia should also go back to Wuzhi, go goodbye, if I can meet you again, I will tell you who I am"
