"What did you say?" Yun Ze almost couldn't believe it, "Lao Qi saved you, why is he here?" ”

"How do I know, if I'm right, he should have been following us since the early days, but all the time in the shadows." Qing Rang Fang recalled carefully, the sound of the flute in the dream in the woods that night may be the seventh brother, and the seventh brother knows so much about Ah Xu's identity I am afraid that he was also on the side at that time, and also helped redeem the jade pendant she mortgaged, and it is definitely not a coincidence that it can appear in the end. "I don't think I would have been able to meet my eldest brother without his protection."

"The seventh has a heart." Yun Ze looked at the traces of being scratched by a tree branch on Qing Rang's neck, and inevitably blamed himself in his heart, "Speaking of which, I am not as good as the seventh child, and I am ashamed of you to call me a big brother." ”

"If you still talk like this, I will be angry, the eldest brother will always be my eldest brother, and the seventh brother will always be my seventh brother." The last sentence is a bit sad to say.

"Haven't you ever told Lao Qi about your thoughts? I am also a man, and I understand that a man who protects you so much is not unintentional to you. ”

"Big brother, you are also a man, can you send the woman in your heart to marry another man? After you left, he followed me all the way, how did I spend these days, he watched it with his own eyes, that's why he didn't show up and said he wanted to take me away, how do I speak? He treated me like a brother. ”

Yun Ze wanted to defend something but didn't know how to say it, "Then let me ask you, if at that time, the seventh said that he would take you away, would you go with him?" ”

"Yes." Qing Rang replied simply, this crispness made his heart hurt even more, "But he didn't, then from now on, I will marry into the Yu family, and the seventh brother and I will only have a brother-sister relationship." ”

Jin Niang said outside the door that Yu Mansion sent someone to see Qing Rang, Yun Ze went to the front hall with Qing Rang, and found that Feng Ding, the head of Yu Mansion, was waiting in the front hall behind Ah Xu.

"Quickly let people go," Qing Rang stepped forward quickly, Ah Xu saw Qing Rang let go of his original look, Qing Rang turned around and explained to Feng Qiang, "This person is my brother-in-law." ”

"The villain Feng Qian asked Young Master Duanmu, Miss Duanmu." Feng signed the salute and spoke unhurriedly, "The villain didn't mean to be rude to the little boy, the young marshal ordered me to bring the little boy to see Miss Duanmu, but the little boy misunderstood the villain, and it was helpless to tie up." ”

"The family has always been stubborn, which has made Manager Feng tired." Qing Rang glanced at Jin Niang, and Jin Niang handed Feng a silver ingot, "I'm tired of you late at night, so let me buy some food for my brothers." ”

"Miss Xie's reward. The little ones quit first. Feng Qian led the people away, and Yun Ze came forward to ask, "When did you have an extra brother-in-law, why didn't I know?" ”

Qing Rang saw that the wound on Ah Xu's shoulder was torn open again, pulled him to the inner courtyard, and said to Yun Ze by the way: "I'll explain to you later, find someone to help me hire a doctor." ”

"It's better for my righteous brother than for my big brother." Yun Ze said a sour word, and several minions in the room held back a smile.

The doctor redressed Ah Xu's medicine and bandaged the wound, while Yun Ze kept looking at the young man, he had heard about saving him from Qing Rang, and he also knew that he helped Qing Rang all the way to Nanxiang, looking at his body and bones, he should have practiced some kung fu.

Yun Ze went to see off the doctor, and Qing asked Jin Niang to go to the kitchen to decoct the medicine, and when the people were empty, she closed the door.

"I saw Yu Zichen, and he said that you are no longer outside the city, and I don't believe that he insisted on letting him go with me, so he asked people to tie me up here." Ah Xu only had time to explain at this time, and he also omitted a part of the bridge where he wanted to forcibly kidnap Yu Zichen and was beaten to the ground.

"I expected, that Yu Zichen is not a kind-hearted Bodhisattva, you are lucky to be in front of me now." Qing Rang had seen Yu Zichen's methods, "Ah Xu, you just met my eldest brother, what do you think?" ”

"I don't care." This is Ah Xu's truth, he only feels that the man's eyes have been rolling on him, as if he is looking at the pork hanging in the market, "Why do you ask like that?" ”

"Tomorrow is the day I get married, I just told the people of Yufu that you are my brother-in-law, but how can you marry with your younger brother, tomorrow the wedding banquet is over, you will go with my eldest brother, he is in the army in the northwest, I have entrusted him, he will take you to the barracks."

"I'm not leaving!" Ah Xu don't overdo it, he has already decided to let it go, and he will never leave.

"I already know your identity," as soon as these words came out, Ah Xu turned his head away and stared straight at Qingrang, "Don't worry, the person who told me has no ill will towards you, and I won't tell anyone else." But if you stay in Nanxiang Yu's house with me, so many pairs of eyes are staring, your identity will be exposed sooner or later, and at that time, I don't want to say that I can't protect you, I'm afraid that the entire Yu family will also be implicated. ”

"I'm Ah Xu, I'm just Ah Xu from now on, I won't affect you, please don't drive me away!"

"In this world, it's not who you want you to be, that's who you are, if you can, I also hope that I am not Duanmu Qingrang. Besides, don't you really want to avenge your mother and those who died to protect you? ”

"I want to, but I'm afraid, I'm afraid ......" Ah Xu is still a child after all, gritting his teeth and tears still can't stop flowing down.

"I'm afraid too, but my mother once told me that people are afraid not because the enemy is too strong, but because they are too weak. I asked you to go to the barracks with my eldest brother, first, no one would doubt your identity there, and second, then you could make you strong, and when you became strong, no one would be afraid! Qing Rang stroked Ah Xu's head, and could understand the state of mind of her mother when she said these words to her, because it was not enough to shelter, so she was expected to be self-reliant.

"Am I strong enough to protect you?"

"Yes, you can be strong, you can protect whoever you want! When you become stronger, you may be able to tie up Yu Zichen and go to the streets. Qing Rang's joke made Ah Xu, the child, burst into tears and laughed, and she thought that the arrogant man in white was dragged by a rope to parade through the street, and she felt happy in her heart.

Such a night was the longest night in the first half of Qing's life, and after dawn, the sun first appeared, but she felt that time was still too fast, because from this day on, she was no longer Miss Duanmu, but the young aunt of the Yu family.
