She stretched out her hand and pointed to the size of the mouth of the jar under the tile, and looked at the young general beside her suspiciously: "You said this is a well?" ”

The young general followed her gaze and smiled lightly, with a little honest taste: "Madam, you live in the capital all the year round, and it is normal not to know this thing." This is called the qanats, generally there are few big rivers in the inland areas, and it is inconvenient for the people to draft water, so they use this underground well to gather the rainwater from the sky together and store it, cover it, so that the water will not evaporate, and then take it from here when the water is used. ”

As he spoke, he put aside the tiles in his hand and continued: "Although this Yongji town is close to the sea, the sea water is not edible, and there is no river nearby, even if you dig well water from the ground, everyone will be salty. That's why I built this well like the inlanders. ”

I've seen this kind of Jingyan cumin in a book, but this is really the first time I've seen it with my own eyes, and I think it's amazing.

She turned her head to look at the young general beside her, and couldn't help but praise: "I can't imagine that you know so much!" ”

The young general smiled innocently, raised his hand and scratched his head embarrassedly: "Madam, the little one doesn't know much, but he only knew it because he had been guarding the interior with the army." ”

Yan Xiaoyi nodded and thanked him repeatedly: "No matter what, thank you!" ”

As she spoke, she squatted down slightly, and went to scoop up the water in the dark well with a water ladle, who knows, she lowered her head like this, and suddenly something fell from her, and fell into the well with a soft sound.

This subtle movement, the young general next to him also heard it, and hurriedly came over: "Madam, what's wrong?" ”

Yan Xiaowei raised her hand and touched her earlobe, the pearl earrings on one side were still there, but the other side was bare, and there was nothing. She couldn't help but squint her eyes and look around: "My earrings have fallen!" ”

When the young general heard this, he hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and said, "The little one seems to have heard a sound of water, and eighty percent of them have fallen into the well!" I reached into the well and saw if I could find it. ”

It's the middle of winter, and it's night, and the north wind is blowing in this yard, and even the doors and windows are "fluttering". After only a short period of effort, Yan Xiaoyi's little hands were frozen like carrots, let alone going into the water to find something in such a cold day.

She hurriedly shook her head: "No need to look for it, it's too cold, your hands should be frozen!" Anyway, it's not a valuable thing, it's the same whether we find it or not, not to mention that if we go to the well to find something, how can we drink this water! Don't bother! ”

It's rare for someone to care so much about a soldier, and the young general felt a trace of warmth in his heart, and smiled at Yan Xiaoyi: "Anyway, after this place is sealed, no one will live in it in the short term, it doesn't matter if the water is dirty or not." As for the small ones, you don't have to worry about them, madam, the small ones have rough skin and thick flesh, and they can stand the cold! Madame, wait, the little one will bring you the earrings! ”

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and reached into the dark well despite Yan Xiaoyi's dissuasion.

Although the dark well was covered with a lid, but after all, outside, as soon as his hand reached in, he felt a piercing coolness spread quickly along his hand to his entire arm, and the young general secretly gritted his teeth, but he looked at his "General's Wife" with concern next to him, he was stunned and didn't show a chill at all, but the earrings were small things after all, and the water from the dark well flowed down from above, and he didn't touch it for a long time.

However, his hand unconsciously touched the wall of the dark well, and suddenly something hard was there, and his hand moved twice. The young general wrinkled his eyebrows suspiciously, "Hey, what's this?" "It's boxy, just stuck in the crack in the wall of the well, like a small wooden box the size of a thumb.

Yan Xiaowei listened, and also blinked: "What's something!" ”

The young general lowered his body slightly, grabbed the small box with his fingers, and moved it down twice, but he only moved it slightly, and he couldn't take it down!

The young general twisted his eyebrows, and used all his strength to grab the small box and pull it down, and the small box was finally taken down by him! But because of his excessive strength, his arm slammed against the edge of the dark well, making a loud noise, and then, the young general unconsciously moaned in pain.

Yan Xiaowei was startled, and hurriedly looked down at the young general: "How are you, where did you go?" ”

The young general held his arm with one hand, frowned painfully, and waved his hand to Yan Xiaoyi: "Madam, I'm fine!" It doesn't matter, I've got the stuff out! ”

As she spoke, she placed a small, palm-sized wet wooden box in the palm of her hand.

Yan Xiaowei frowned, lowered her eyes and carefully looked at such an unknown object in her hand, and was about to reach out to open it, when suddenly someone behind her asked in a deep voice, "What are you two doing?" ”

Yan Xiaowei was startled, hurriedly held the things in her hand in the palm of her hand, hid it in her cuffs, hurriedly looked behind her, and saw that it was Rong Xiu standing at the door, so she breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest: "It turned out to be you, it scared me!" ”

Her hurried hiding action was seen by Rong Xiu, he frowned, walked over with a calm face, and swept his gaze between Yan Xiaoyun and Xiao Jiang: "What are you two doing here?" ”

He looked at Yan Xiaoyun with dissatisfaction: "Didn't I tell you, come back quickly after untying your hands!" Where did you hear my words? ”

His eyes swept coldly to the young general on the side: "What are you?" ”

His long figure stood in front of him, and at the same time, the man was more than a head taller than the young general. The innate arrogance coupled with the majesty with a cold face at the moment, the persecuted young general did not dare to raise his head. hurriedly saluted him, and stumbled and said, "Back to the general's words, the small one was sent by Commander Pan to guard the courtyard!" That, just now I happened to see the lady looking for water, and the little one came over to guide me slightly! ”

With a little guidance, can you use two heads so close together? Rong Xiu glanced at him coldly, the young general didn't know why, but he subconsciously felt that he had offended him, and he was so frightened that he immediately shrank his head.

Yan Xiaowei couldn't help but sigh when she saw that Rong Xiu's face was not good. thought he was like this because she was too late to go back, so he poured his anger on others. Hurriedly reached out and pulled his cuffs: "What are you doing to him, he just helped me find something, and he is very enthusiastic!" ”

Rong Xiu pursed his lips and snorted coldly: "Enthusiastic? So so close to my daughter-in-law? Hmph, if a big man asked him to find something, I don't believe he would be so enthusiastic! ”

His tone was sour, even if Yan Xiaoyi's nerves were big, he could hear that something was wrong. Her big cat-like eyes stared at Rong Xiu dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by that?" People are kind enough to help me, what kind of flying vinegar are you eating here! I think you're getting more and more unreasonable! ”

As she spoke, she flicked her sleeves and was about to leave, but she didn't grab it with Rong Xiu's hand. His thick eyebrows were tightly twisted, his handsome face was tight, and his eyes fell on her body complicatedly: "I eat flying vinegar?" Am I unreasonable? If I really do this, I won't let you get along with His Royal Highness Nine in private! ”

Yan Xiaowei twisted her eyebrows: "What's the matter with His Royal Highness Guan Jiu?" ”

As soon as these words came out, something flashed through my mind. She suddenly remembered what Allure had said before, and when she thought of this, she opened her mouth to distinguish, "Did you just hear some rumors?" Others speculate and don't believe me, but I don't want to pursue it. But how can you do that? What the hell is going on with me and His Royal Highness the Nine, haven't you counted it in your heart? ”

Rong Xiu's big hands hanging down on his sides clenched! He just knew too well what His Royal Highness the Ninth was thinking about her, so he couldn't sit still! He admits that he is a little cautious, but there are other men who stay by his beloved woman's side all day long, not only him, but other men can't stand it either, right?

But looking at Yan Xiaoyi's frank eyes, he felt that he was competing with himself, she didn't understand anything at all!

However, he couldn't let this matter go on like this. When he was guarding outside just now, he watched Baili Ye Su in the house treat Yan Xiaoyun like his own woman, and he didn't even want to deny his feelings for Yan Xiaoyi, he almost couldn't help but rush out!

He wasn't afraid that Yan Xiaowei would change his mind, what he was afraid of was that Baili Yesu kept approaching her as a friend and secretly snatched the position that should have belonged to him.

In order to prevent this, he had to remind Yan Xiaoyi!

Thinking so, he grabbed Yan Xiaoyi's arm with a big palm and slowly tightened it, and said solemnly: "No matter what, you have already made a marriage with me, so when you contact other men, you must pay attention to proportion!" ”

Yan Xiaowei couldn't help but think back to what she had done, obviously nothing out of the ordinary? She couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved, and shook off his palm: "You mean I misbehaved?" If that's the case, then I'm not worthy of you! Let's break off the marriage contract as soon as possible! ”

Rong Xiu's hand was vigorously thrown away by him, and his palm was empty, and his heart was also empty. Hearing Yan Xiaoyi's remarks, he couldn't help but turn cold, and his voice dropped suddenly: "What did you just say?" You repeat! ”

Although Yan Xiaowei is a good-natured person, but now she feels that she has been wronged by Rong Xiu, and she is also very aggrieved, and her emotions burst out in an instant, and she stalks her neck and talks back to him: "I said that we should break the marriage contract as soon as possible!" ”

Rong Xiu was already insecure, but now when he heard her say this, it was more like being beaten on the head, and his breath was a little unstable for a moment.

He shook his body slightly, wrinkled his eyebrows, and asked in a deep voice, "What did you just say?" You repeat? ”

Yan Xiaowei was a little impatient: "I said I wanted to break up with you!" I've said it a few times, and you're pretending not to hear it! ”

As she spoke, she shook off her hand and walked forward.

However, as soon as she took a step, a huge force suddenly came from her outstretched hand, grabbed her shoulders fiercely, pulled her whole person over, and turned against the stone wall behind her.

There was a cold touch from behind, and Yan Xiaoyu shuddered, she twisted her eyebrows dissatisfiedly, raised her head angrily, and who knew that she suddenly crashed into Rong Xiu's deep, complex and painful eyes.

Somehow, her heart instantly ached. However, before she could think about it, Rong Xiu suddenly spoke, and said in a deep tone: "Yan Xiaoyi, I'm really blind, how can I look at you who have no conscience!" Could it be that for so long, you can't see how good I am to you and how much I care about you? Is your heart made of stone? Why can't you cover it hot no matter how you cover it? ”

"Break up?" He suddenly smiled bitterly, and his eyes were full of injuries: "How can you say this easily?" Do you know what it means to say this? Are you too relieved that I'm sure I'm not going to leave you? Or do you simply feel that I am not important, even if I disappear from your life, you feel insignificant? ”

For such a long time, she was like a small seed, which drifted into his heart with the wind, gently, without even a ripple. However, full of it, her seed took root in his heart, and in a blink of an eye it had grown into a towering tree with lush foliage, and the roots of the tree were deeply rooted in his heart, and he wanted to ignore it, but there was nothing he could do! If she is uprooted, I am afraid that his heart will also leave a wound that is difficult to fill!

So he was nervous about her, cared about her, cared for her in every way, and flattered her in every way, for fear that she would turn around and leave mercilessly if she was not careful.

So after he found that she was gone, his heart seemed to be missing, and only when he found her, a panicked heart could gently fall back into place.

So he was madly jealous of all the men who appeared around her, he hated that she looked at others as if she looked at him, hated that she talked to others as she talked to him, and hated that she gave others her tenderness to him!

So when I heard her easily say the word "break up", I felt so sad and out of control!

Yan Xiaowei twisted her eyebrows and opened her mouth: "Rong Xiu, I ...... with His Royal Highness the Nine"

Rong Xiu became furious, and swung his fist at the stone wall on Yan Xiaoyun's side, and the old wall was suddenly chiseled out of a foot-long crack.

Yan Xiaowei was startled and hurriedly looked at his fist.

The flesh and blood of the knuckles were blurred, Yan Xiaoyu was shocked, and hurriedly said worriedly: "What's wrong with you, quickly bring your hand over and show me!" I ...... with His Highness the Nine"

"Enough!" As if he couldn't stand it anymore, Rong Xiu wrinkled his eyebrows and roared, his eyes burning with flames: "I don't want to hear about you and him from your mouth again!" As he spoke, he closed his eyes, looking a little depressed and bitter: "You think I'm ridiculous, don't you, I've had enough!" Fed up with such wishful thinking! Yan Xiaoyi, if I dig out my heart and lungs for you like a fool again, I will be your grandson! ”

With that, he turned around and walked away without looking back!

Yan Xiaoyi, who was left leaning against the edge of the stone wall in a daze, instantly felt that the blood flowing on her body was frozen in front of the desolate scenery of the courtyard.

Cold air emanated from the bottom of her heart, and she could barely breathe under pressure.

The previous junior general was frightened by Rong Xiu's appearance, and now that Rong Xiu was gone, he cautiously flashed out of the corner. Thinking of the appearance of Rong Xiu just now, he didn't dare to get too close.

With palpitations in his heart, he asked tremblingly, "Madam, what's wrong with you and the general?" Is it because of me? ”

Yan Xiaowei glanced at him faintly, and wanted to hook the corners of his lips at him, but found that his body seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't move.

She had no choice but to wave her hand to the young general: "It's not your reason." ”

After a pause, she stiffened the corners of her mouth and said, "I'm sorry, thank you just now." You go down first, I'll just find the earrings myself. ”

The young general saw that her face was not good, and he was a little distracted, but he also felt that this was not something he could manage. Thinking of Rong Xiu's appearance just now, the back of his neck was cold, and he hurriedly blessed Yan Xiaoyi: "It's so cold, madam, come into the house quickly!" The little ones are going to step back! ”

As he spoke, he silently withdrew from the courtyard.

At this time, the atmosphere in the room was also eerily quiet.

Pan Shu looked at Rong Xiu, whose face had been stiff since he entered the door just now, and was obviously in a fugue, and couldn't help but twist his eyebrows: "Little General, what's wrong with you?" Weren't you okay when you went out just now? As he spoke, he looked at the door: "Didn't you say that you went to find someone, brother and sister?" Why haven't you seen each other for so long? Could it be that your stomach is bad? ”

Rong Xiu's complicated gaze swept over Baili Ye Su, who was sitting on the other side, his brows twisted, and he shook his head perfunctorily at Pan Shu, without making a sound.

Pan Shu's brows couldn't help but tighten even tighter, what does this mean?

He twisted his eyebrows and looked at Baili Yesu on the side: "Your Highness the Nine, this ......"

Baili Ye Su glanced at Rong Xiu, and then got up from the chair: "Xiao Cun is still outside?" Why haven't you come back for so long, I'll take a look! ”

As soon as he got up, Rong Xiu, who was sitting on the side, suddenly stood up from the chair, and the strength of the chair behind him knocked over at once, and he fell to the ground with a loud "bang"!

He walked over in three steps and two steps, grabbed Baili Yesu's neckline angrily, and his eyes flashed with burning anger: "She didn't come back, what are you going to see?" Remember, she's my lady! It's my woman! Even you, Your Highness the Nineth, can't snatch her away from me! No, no one! ”

His fingers tugged hard at Baili Yesu's neckline, and his already injured hand suddenly tightened, and more blood spilled out. But as if he didn't know anything at all, he stared straight at the person in front of him, and said word by word: "Don't think that if you are His Royal Highness the Nineth, I will be afraid of you!" Anyone who hits her idea, whoever it is, can't do it! ”

Baili Ye Su lowered his eyes, and suddenly frowned and reached out to pull his hand down: "Okay, it's not you who have the final say, it's Xiao Cumin who has the final say!" ”

He suddenly raised his lips and smiled: "Originally, I planned to keep this feeling in my heart, but now, it seems that the two of you are not suitable, since this is the case, then I will take over!" ”

As he spoke, his faint eyes suddenly flashed with an astonishing firelight, and his voice was loud: "Yan Xiaoyi, I want it!" ”
