Chapter Forty-Eight: Heroic Rescue
Ye Xingchen stayed outside Xiaoxi's house all night, a door separated by two hearts that love each other but can't keep each other, worrying about each other and tormenting each other, although he is very glad that he has been looking for many years, he can finally see the person he misses all the time, but he is more happy than Xiaoxi's safety.
He really wanted to guard her like this, deserving of her forgiveness and acceptance of himself, how much he wanted to be so obsessed with her, he didn't care about other people's eyes, he didn't care about his identity, but he wanted to care about Xiaoxi's safety.
If his father knew about the existence of Xiaoxi, he was afraid that he would hurt her more than Chen Xinying and them, which he couldn't bear.
At dawn, his heart became clearer, and he indulged in pain, but it was time for him to leave,
"Xiaoxi, I know, you still resent me, and I also hate my own incompetence, letting you suffer these hardships and breaking your heart, but I-but I-" Ye Xingchen was grief-stricken in his heart, and he was speechless with a few choked sobs and low sobs.
"Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, would you like me to take another look at you before I leave."
Xiaoxi is also sad and uncomfortable, she knows that Ye Xingchen has always been there, her back is close to the door at this time, her heart is uncomfortable, but her eyes are dry and there are no tears to shed, she can't see him anymore, maybe it's good for him to leave like this, and the pain and patience of the moment will pass.
couldn't wait for the person he wanted to see, his heart was extremely lost, and he only heard him smile lightly,
"Xiaoxi, Jiuye's heart has always been there, there is only one you, and I only want one you, the best day in my life is to be with you, I thought I could be like this with you all the time, Coco, Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, I am reluctant to leave you, but now I have no choice, you have to be good, I'm leaving." Ye Xingchen was a little speechless, and felt that leaving Xiaoxi again made him feel a little worse than death, but at this point, he could only move forward, but fortunately, he had found Xiaoxi now.
Chang Qing also had tears in his eyes when he heard these sadness, how could he not know the thoughts of their prince.
"Let's go, let's go, time will drown it all out," Xiaoxi whispered bitterly to herself.
By the time Xiaoxi pushed the door open at noon, there was no one there, and she looked at the pile of ledgers on the desk in a daze for a long time.
Miao Miao walked in with some concern, although the situation yesterday was not very clear, but I could guess probably,
"Cousin-in-law, those two are already gone,"
Xiao Xi just glanced at Miao Miao blankly, nodded with a dull gaze, Miao Miao was a little uncomfortable when she saw such a Xiao Xi, and gave Xiao Xi a burden casually.
When I opened the baggage, it was full of things left by Xiaoxi before, including the things she played with when she was a child, as well as some small objects that she usually embroidered by herself, and left them when she was forced to leave home twice. When Ye Xingchen was looking for her before, he picked her up again and kept it for her.
There is also a purse inside, and inside the rope that pulls the purse is a piece of fine mutton fat white jade, crystal clear, white and flawless, and feels warm and delicate, such a good piece of jade Both of them were a little shocked.
"Cousin-in-law, this jade pendant should be very valuable, the man just said that I must pass it on to you."
Xiaoxi saw that the jade pendant was engraved with the word 'jade brocade', and her heart couldn't help sinking, she suddenly remembered that her mother had said before that Ye Xingchen had been deeply poisoned for a year, and he had been in a coma for half a month and almost lost his breath, and then Concubine Yun Niangniang sold such a piece of jade back at a high price from nowhere, and within two days of hanging it on Ye Xingchen's body, Ye Xingchen woke up and jumped alive within two days.
Xiao Xi's hand with the jade pendant trembled a little, and her face was a little pale, she somewhat understood what Ye Xingchen meant?
Miao Miao saw her face change suddenly, and her face looked a little overwhelmed with despair, and she was in pain when she saw Xiao Xi throwing all these things on the ground like crazy.
"Why did you leave these things behind, why did you reappear, why didn't you let me forget you, why did you torture me so much, why did you do all this?"
Xiaoxi was in pain, and she couldn't forget that she was in pain, but now that she has these things, there is no peace in her heart.
"Cousin-in-law, what's wrong with you, cousin-in-law, don't be sad, I see that the son is also sincere to you, he stood at your door all night last night,"
"Miao Miao, you go out first, I want to stay alone for a while, it's fine for a while"
After Miao Miao went out, Xiao Xi looked at these scattered things, and there were bits and pieces of her and Ye Xingchen in front of her eyes, and suddenly she carefully picked up the jade pendant on the ground, and cried softly in her heart.
"Jiuye, Jiuye, why can't I forget, do you know how uncomfortable I am?" Xiaoxi muttered softly, and after calming down, she hung this jade pendant around her neck.
Xiaoxi seems to be a little unconcerned about the affairs of the garden these days, and Sun Jili can also see it, he feels that something should have happened during the time he has been out, but she is reluctant to ask Miao Miao no matter how she asks.
On this day, Xiaoxi and Sun Jili also brought some buddies to make and buy things from the garden, she used to hand these over to Sun Jili to do, but recently she felt bored and wanted to go out for a walk, and the guys in the spring garden also hired a lot, and she only had enough time to rest.
Xiaoxi went to the shop to negotiate the price with the shopkeeper, and took Sun Jili to the teahouse to watch the play, she hadn't lived such a comfortable life for a long time.
It's just that the singing on stage is in full swing, Xiaoxi is already distracted when she sits on the tea table, Sun Jili finds that Xiaoxi has been doing everything like this recently, and he is always a little uneasy in his heart.
The earth-shattering applause and shouts finally pulled Xiaoxi's thoughts back, she felt a little noisy and went to the backyard of the teahouse to take a turn, walked to an abandoned doorway, heard the sound of things falling inside, startled her and didn't think much about it and walked forward, then a low sobbing came again.
She didn't want to be nosy, but the woman's sobbing made her feel stunned, and there was no window for a long time, only to see a tied woman through a small crack in the door, only to see that the woman had a tight cloth in her mouth, and her hands and feet were tied with ropes, and the room was dark, and Xiaoxi couldn't see the woman's face clearly, only that she was crying very sadly.
"Hey, hey,"
The woman finally raised her head when she heard Xiaoxi's shout, but she still couldn't see her face clearly.
"Don't cry, who tied you here,"
"Woo woo woo-" It's also that people's mouths are stuffed with strips of cloth, how to speak, Xiaoxi is also in a hurry, and is trying to knock the door open with something,
"The woman is talking about you, hurry up,"
A man came towards him with a fierce look, Xiaoxi had to sneak away for a while to figure out a way, and when she arrived in the front yard of the teahouse, the play was also sung, and the people were over, and Sun Jili was still waiting for her.
"Ah Li, I just saw a woman in the backyard, tied up in a broken house by bad guys, how do you say we rescued her, and there are still people guarding her."
When Sun Jili heard this, he dragged her all the way to the outside of the teahouse, and Xiaoxi pushed Sun Jili away with some anger.
"You're crazy, what to save, don't put yourself in it, these singers are all good at punching and kicking," he said as he pulled Xiaoxi away.
"Ah Li, I just saw it, the girl in it is very beautiful, you rescued her, maybe it's your lady, how about it?"
"It's not good, you don't use beauty tricks, you can't use it with me,"
The fire in Sun Jili's heart is bubbling up, she will never know his thoughts,
"Ah Li, why can't you use it here, unless you have someone in your heart."
Sun Jili's sour mood Xiaoxi couldn't understand it, she just wanted to save that woman, although she was a little self-conscious.
Xiao Xi saw that this man was like a cow in the field, and he only knew how to move forward, and he broke away from his pull with all his might.
"If you don't save it, I'll save it, I've also experienced her mood,"
ran away after yelling at him, regardless of Sun Jili's worry and anger,
"I'll save, I'll save, it's not okay," Sun Jili cried helplessly, and had the idea of slapping himself.
When it got dark, Sun Jili took a few guys to climb over the wall first, they were not knights who flew over the wall and walked the wall with martial arts and righteousness, and they couldn't do it quietly over the wall, but of course they were found and chased.
Xiaoxi wants this effect to turn the tiger away from the mountain, and it is very easy for people who do not guard the door to pry the door, and an axe splits the broken door, which makes the woman Suo Suo tremble.
Xiaoxi entered the room to untie the rope on the woman's body, and her hands and feet could move, and the woman broke the cloth strip in her mouth with her hands, and the tears of gratitude flowed down her eyes.
After all, you can't stay here for a long time, and a few people took the woman out of the broken house, and after seeing the woman's appearance clearly, Xiaoxi said to Sun Jili in her heart, "I'm sorry! This woman is tall and round, and she really has nothing to do with the fair beauty.
The guards couldn't catch up with this, and then chased after that, but none of them caught up, and they felt that the scene was like a cat and mouse, and when they came back to be fooled, there was only a pile of rotten hemp rope and their angry roars left in the broken house.
Sun Jili and those guys broke their legs when they ran, and after stopping, they lay on the ground one after another, and the guys who participated in today's rescue each received a reward of ten taels of silver, and they felt that this trip was worth it.
However, Xiaoxi felt that Sun Jili would definitely lose according to the previous agreement, so he didn't mention this stubble, but he ignored Xiaoxi for several days afterwards.
Sun Jili felt that as long as he was with Wei Xiaoxi, something unimaginable would happen to him at any time, either to make him a robber, or to let him pretend to be a monk, and today he wanted to be a chivalrous man, why was it so difficult for him to just want to be a good person.
"Okay, I'm sorry for you, next time there is such a thing, I must first look at my appearance before deciding whether to ask you for help."
"Wei Xiaoxi, you're a fool!" Sun Jili was so angry that his eyes were full of stars, and he yelled at Xiaoxi angrily.
"Why are you still scolding, how can you say that I am also your shopkeeper, you are not afraid of me............"
"Don't be afraid, whatever you do with me," Sun Jili pushed away Xiaoxi and left angrily, leaving Xiaoxi with an aggrieved and overwhelmed face.
