Chapter 20: Washing the Feet
Today, she Xia Sihan is the daughter-in-law of Li Jinyan, a hunter in Lijia Village. The two have just been married, and even so, they are not so excited, what's wrong?
When Li Jinyan came in, he saw Xia Sihan's eyes were confused, and a pair of tender lotus feet were soaked in water, which made him feel a little evil.
"Sihan, the water is cold, what do you think!"
Li Jinyan reached out to probe the temperature of the water, turned around and took the kettle from the red charcoal fire burning on the side, poured some hot water into it, and then sat down to soak her feet with her.
Xia Sihan came back to her senses and saw him, a flush appeared on her face, his eyes looked at Xia Sihan directly, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw it!
"Sihan, I have wronged you in today's incident, you have only been through the door for a few days and encountered this incident, so I really don't know how to tell you."
"It's okay, it's just that she can't think about it, if she's a good girl, I don't care, but I won't agree to such a woman who hates the poor and loves the rich."
Xia Sihan's words made Li Jinyan anxious, he hurriedly held Xia Sihan's hand, and said in a raised tone: "No matter who you are, you can't agree, you have promised before, unless you are gone!" “
Li Jinyan was even more excited than her, and when she saw that she didn't make a sound, she suddenly realized something, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that, I, even if you are not there, I will accompany you when you are not there." “
With a snort, Xia Sihan couldn't help laughing, she suddenly felt that Li Jinyan was a very good person, at least for now, Li Jinyan was sincere to her.
With Murong Yu's experience, although Xia Sihan has a good impression of Li Jinyan, he doesn't dare to be too involved after all, but Li Jinyan talks about her all day long, and he will do whatever she says. Xia Sihan had never met such a man, she looked at Li Jinyan and decided to test it first.
"Brother Jin, what if Li Ruoxia still comes to entangle in the future?"
"No, we didn't agree to her hitting the wall to find her death today, and she didn't have the face to stay any longer, didn't Uncle Li say that they found a big family for her?"
"Are you really? If it is true, Li Zheng will not come here in person today, if I don't say anything, I am afraid that he will have begged you to agree by this time. ”
Xia Sihan knew their methods too well, and Su Ri set up a good shelf to clean up the people in this small village. But whenever there is the slightest thing that is detrimental to his interests, even if he has the title of Lizheng, their family doesn't care.
Xia Sihan was thinking about it, when he suddenly lifted her feet, and her warm big hand held her lotus feet, Li Jinyan was actually washing her feet.
"I, I'll do it myself!"
Xia Sihan blushed and wanted to retract it, but Li Jinyan said: "What's this, it's just that I'm not good, I made you scared for a day, and I have to face such a bad thing when I come back, and it's nothing to help you wash your feet." ”
"But a manly man, how can he wash a woman's feet, and if someone knows about it, he may not laugh at you!"
Xia Sihan said this on her lips, but her heart was sweet, there was such a caring man who felt sorry for herself, and she felt that the choice in this life was right.
In her previous life, she was sealed in a prosperous palace dress, and after returning to the palace, only the palace people greeted her, and they only said that the emperor was busy with government affairs and had no time to come to the harem, so let her rest first. At that time, she really believed it, so she kept guarding, waiting, but waiting for the talisman to come.
Xia Sihan believes that Li Jinyan is different. It's just that his eyes are pure and thorough, and Murong Yu and her never washed her feet when they were at the bottom of their lives. Not to mention helping her share the burden.
Reborn in one life, everything is different from the previous life, and this time she will dominate everything.
Xia Sihan retracted his thoughts, looked at the man in cloth in front of him, he quickly poured the water and helped Xia Sihan up, as if he was a treasure.
"Sihan, today I listened to your meaning, it seems that I want to go to the city? The notice ......"
Lying in the warm quilt, Li Jinyan was a little worried in his heart, Xia Sihan spread out his clothes, took the sewing basket and sewed it up finely, and when he heard him ask, she told her eloquently.
"Didn't you ask me why I married you? In fact, I was forced by my family to marry someone I didn't like, so I sneaked out and happened to meet you. ”
"Then, now the father-in-law must be in a hurry, otherwise, I will accompany you back to have a look, the poor son-in-law should always ask for the father-in-law."
Li Jinyan is also worried about Xia Sihan, if she has a marriage contract, won't it become an escape from marriage? If he is found out one day, Sihan will be punished!
Li Jinyan held her hand worriedly, but the woman in front of her only smiled indifferently, and her porcelain jade-like skin became more and more translucent in the candlelight.
Xia Sihan shook his head, "Now is not the time, you remember my words, I just don't want to be a victim of their marriage, Brother Jin, I will take you back to see him, but not now." ”
If she goes back as a peasant woman, she will only be laughed at by them, and she will even affect Brother Jin, in case her Shangshu father is unhappy, how can it be good to lose her mouth? With her understanding of her father, if there is the slightest possibility of harming her own interests, she will definitely remove this possibility as soon as possible, and even if the other party is her own flesh and blood.
Li Jinyan just thinks that she is not ready, maybe it would be good to have a child and go back, in that case, the father-in-law will not be angry anymore, right?
He would think like this just because Lotus's sister was like this, and two years after eloping, she came back with the child, which made Lotus's father and mother happy, and never said anything to drive her away.
Although she knew that Xia Sihan was not an ordinary peasant girl, she could guess that her identity was extraordinary, otherwise she would not have issued a notice. But he never expected that Xia Sihan's husband to be married was the prince, and she herself was the daughter of Shangshu.
If Li Jinyan knew, he was afraid that Xia Sihan would have been hidden a long time ago.
The two of them had their own thoughts in their hearts, Xia Sihan thought about how to speak, and Li Jinyan thought about how to give birth to a child as soon as possible, but they didn't dare to force her, both of them held back very hard.
I don't know when Xia Sihan couldn't hold it and fell asleep first, the room was silent, the woman snuggled up to the man's arms and slept soundly, and there was a sweet and peaceful atmosphere in all around.
In Xuejia Village, a hundred miles away from Lijia Village, a team of men and horses began to search overnight, and every household that married a daughter-in-law would be pulled out and severely interrogated.
This night, the people of Xuejia Village turned over on their backs, and the whole village was full of chickens and dogs, and it did not stop until the sky was bright, and when the officers and soldiers left, the people in the village were still frightened, and they did not know what was going on.
Xia Sihan didn't know that he just casually told a lie, which led to a large-scale search and arrest by officers and soldiers.
In fact, they have been targeted since they came out of Fan Lou, but the mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk, and the two of them deliberately detoured the road, so they threw off the people who were following them halfway through.
