Xiao Man originally thought that he would not be able to wake up until tomorrow night, and he would not be able to get out of bed for another day, but soon Zhou Duchan let Xiao Man go.

Looking at Xiao Man's watery eyes, Zhou Duchan smiled and scratched Xiao Man's nose, "What's wrong, why are you looking at me like this?" ”

"No, what's wrong with you today? Feeling unwell? ”

"Why do you ask?"

"That...... That one...... There's no reason to just feel ....... ”

Xiao Man's eyes began to wander around, and she didn't dare to look at Zhou Duchan's eyes, she couldn't say that it was because Zhou Duchan didn't last as long as yesterday.

Zhou Duchan didn't delve into it, holding Xiaoman in his arms and gently groping Xiaoman's smooth arm, falling into deep thought.

I have never felt at ease, in fact, since I was a child, she has never really felt at ease, for fear that she will be regarded as a monster by others if she takes a wrong step, for fear that her little life will be explained here, for fear that her brother and mother will not love herself like now if they know their origins, but by Zhou Duchan's side, she is not afraid that her secret will be exposed.

"Zhou Duchan, let me ask you, if I hide some secrets from you in the future, will you blame me?"

"No, everyone will have their own secrets in their hearts and don't want to tell others, you have your own rights."

"Then if you found out that I am different from everyone else, will you still love me?"

"What I love is that you are different from those women, this is your characteristic."

Xiao Man gently approached Zhou Duchan, rubbing his chin, and decided in his heart whether to stop telling Zhou Duchan about his coming from another world for the time being, he was right, this is her true self.

"Xiaoman, I may have to leave you for a while."

"Where to go?"

"The emperor filmed me to go to the south, where there were many big floods, the people lived in dire straits, the imperial court's disaster relief silver had already been issued, and the river embankment had been repaired many times, but it was ......."

Xiao Man looked up at Zhou Duchan, "Some people are greedy for the silver of the imperial court. ”

"Yes, some people are corrupt and pervert the law, and they are taking the lives of ordinary people as a child's play, I received a secret report a few days ago, those bastards, embezzled the disaster relief money issued by the imperial court, and even more excessive, it is said that these times the flood is caused by man-made, and even deliberately drowned the villagers to claim the pension issued by the imperial court."

"If you don't care about people's lives, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes if you don't make decisions for the people."

"This sentence is really right, in the early dynasty, the emperor asked people to go south to find out about this matter, but no one dared to take it, the emperor who wanted to pick it up was unwilling, I was unwilling to go, but the emperor finally designated me to go."

"Go, why don't you go, if you don't go, who will come to save those ordinary people."

"But I don't know when I'll be back after I go, and I'll have to follow you for a long time."

"If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight, but you have to promise me, you must pay attention to safety, you will definitely encounter a lot of suffering and a lot of danger when you go south, since those people have made such a heartless period, then you are going to block their financial road, they will definitely take risks, so you must protect it, you must come back completely, I will wait for you."

"Don't worry, even if it's for you, I'll pay attention to my own safety, and I want to take Shi Chao with me this time."

"Why?"

"I don't know if you can see it, it's that Shi Chao really doesn't like to make sounds, and he's really not suitable for business, if he really gets trapped in these things for the rest of his life, it will really be a waste of his talent."

Xiao Man leaned on Zhou Duchan's arm, frowned and thought for a moment, "What you said about my brother's ambition has never been here, he has dreamed of entering the temple since he was a child, as long as my brother agrees, I have no opinion, and now my business is basically on the right track, Pea, Sister Honglian, they are already able to take charge of themselves, in fact, I have let go of all the business now, and I am ready to do Cao Yun in the next step, if the river can be opened, the distance between the north and the south will be shortened a lot, The journey can be shortened by at least half, so that goods from the north and south can be circulated, so that the fruit from the south is not so expensive. ”

"This is not bad, but if you do it yourself, the court will definitely not agree, Caoyun has always been led by the court."

"So I found the Shirley County Lord to cooperate, as for some of the Shirley County Lords of the imperial court to go back and get it, I don't care how she divides it, I only want fifty percent of my interests."

"Fifty percent of the benefits, the Lord of Sydney agreed?"

"She must be willing, in fact, she doesn't care about how much money she makes in business, as long as I have any ideas, she supports them unconditionally, and she wants to participate."

"I'm really curious about what the relationship between the two of you is, and how she believes in you like this."

"How to envy it, in fact, the emotional friendship between women is also the same as that of men, the two of us are iron porcelain, and we have lived and died together, in fact, Shirley is very simple, as long as you are really good to her, she will be good to you with all her heart, so don't be so indifferent to Shirley in the future."

"I don't have much to do with her, and I don't have any indifference to her."

Looking at Zhou Duchan's expression of obviously not being in a state, Xiao Man felt that this matter still needs to be worked on in the future, and it is not an overnight thing. ”

"Hey, forget it, I won't force you, let's talk about it later."

Zhou Duchan looked at Xiao Man affectionately, "Xiao Man and I feel very guilty about you, I didn't give you an upright identity, and I ...... you worry about every day." ”

Xiao Man gently covered Zhou Duchan's mouth, "Shhh, don't speak, I don't want to think about those things now, it's my own choice, I believe in you and what I said I will wait for you." ”

"Xiaoman, let me ask you, if one day I have no silver, no status, just an ordinary white clothes, and maybe you need to support me, will you dislike me for being unproductive?"

"Didn't you not have the false things you said when I first met you?"

"It's also said that when we first met, I was just a laughing businessman doing some business, but Xiaoman, do you really care about this?"

"Of course, when you are old, or when you are dying, you will find that these things you said are all false, life does not bring death and does not bring away, people cherish the present in this life, and happiness is the most important."

"Okay, with your words, I feel much more relieved."

Xiao Man turned over and pressed on Zhou Duchan's body, "Are you hiding something from me?" ”

The soft touch made Zhou Duchan's body begin to burst into flames, and he had the heart to answer Xiaoman's words at all.

"Woo...... Week....... ”

After this time, I won't be able to get out of bed tomorrow.

Before Xiao Man fell asleep tiredly, Zhou Duchan kissed Xiao Man's forehead lightly, "Xiao Man...... I really want to take you with me...... You must wait for me to come back. ”

After getting dressed, I stood quietly by the bed and looked at Xiaoman's sleeping face, my eyes were full of reluctance, and I gently imprinted a kiss on Xiaoman's forehead, Xiaoman, I will become strong to give you the life you want, I want to walk on the street with you hand in hand, and I will never make you sad again, let alone regret it.

The hour is not early, tomorrow morning and set off to the south, today when the emperor left the palace, the emperor let Zhou Duchan loosen a note, hoping that he would leave as soon as possible, and hoped that he would take another path in private, Zhou Duchan carefully considered, this method is feasible, in private Zhou Duchan and the emperor reached an agreement, as long as Zhou Duchan can handle this matter well, the emperor can agree to his request, that is, to cancel the marriage contract with the princess of Daxia Kingdom.

And he has to be strong enough, strong enough to make decisions about his own marriage, and no one can control his own life.

Respectively, for a better reunion, my beloved girl.

Xiao Man knew very well that Zhou Duchan would definitely not be by his side when he woke up, but looking at the emptiness on the side, he was still a little disappointed, she actually had a lot to say to him last night, but the man kept pestering herself, and she didn't talk properly at all.

Gu knocked on the door outside, "Xiaoman, are you up?" What time has it been, what have you been doing these days? ”

When Xiao Man heard this, he quickly pulled up his clothes indiscriminately, "Mother, get up...... Get up, I'm fine....... ”

"You have a lot of children, girls, you sleep until three o'clock in the morning every day, and you don't eat breakfast or dinner...... Hey, Xiaoman, you won't be sick, you open the door and let my mother take a look. ”

"Mother, I'm fine, I'm really fine, I'll get up soon, I'm hungry, you can help me get something to eat."

"Okay, you get up quickly, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell your mother."

"Okay, I know mother, you can go quickly...... I'll take a shower and come over right away. ”

"I have to take a bath again, and I have to take a bath every day on this cold day ......."

Listening to his mother's nagging, Xiao Man was a little weak-hearted, and he didn't know if his mother would be angry if she knew that she and Zhou Duchan had already slept with her.

After Gu's feelings were frustrated, he didn't have anything to do, so he stared at Xiao Man every day, and kept nagging in Xiao Man's ear, saying that she really couldn't get married if she didn't marry again, and took out a lot of portraits of young men, so that Xiao Man could see them one by one, Xiao Man really couldn't stand it, and took Friday and Saturday around the street.
