Chapter 111 Chapter 3 of the Covenant
After Gao Feng came back, he told Zhou Weiji in detail about his trip to Meixian, he wiped his sweat and said: "Second brother, it's okay, it seems that this little daughter-in-law can marry into the door!" ”
Zhou Weiji also smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Fourth brother, I have to work hard for you in a few days, let's escort the prisoners together and escort Lan Yi's mother and son back to Meixian." ”
After Gao Feng left, Zhou Weiji sat on his recliner, first smiling, and then solemn. He looked at the door of his house, and then looked at the stone wall that separated Lan Yi's house, and then lay on the chaise longue and waited for it to get dark.
After it got dark, Lan Yi coaxed the two children to sleep, and she continued to make down jackets with the lamp, when she heard someone knocking on her window: "Are you asleep?" ”
"Not yet, second brother, wait a minute." Lan Yi heard that it was Zhou Weiji's voice, she put down the needle and thread in her hand, got dressed, opened the door and led him into the West House. Today is the third day of the eighth month, a crescent moon hanging in the western sky is about to fall, and the sky full of stars is sprinkled with faint light, Lan Yi put the lamp on the kang table and asked: "Second brother, it's really strange, why don't you call the goose every time you come to the house?" ”
She raised these geese to watch the house, but they went to Huaxi to take a bath during the day, and hid in the corner to sleep at night, which did not work at all.
Zhou Weiji smiled: "After all, there are a few geese who can watch the home and nursing home at night. ”
Thinking about it, Lan Yi sighed, pretended not to see the love in Zhou Weiji's eyes, and asked with plastic surgery: "Second brother, is there any news?" ”
Zhou Weiji nodded: "The people who went to Meixian County are back today." ”
After hearing this, Lan Yi's heart rose to her throat, "How is it?" ”
Zhou Weiji chuckled twice, putting Lan Yi at ease.
"Chun Tao is indeed the personal maid of the Wang family's grandmother, and she is also the biological daughter of the Wang housekeeper. However, Steward Wang asked for the grace of the master before Wang Mingzhe, the uncle of the Wang family, had an accident and got rid of her slavery, which was also recorded in the government, and it will be known after a check. ”
Hearing this good news, Lan Yi's heart put down, slapped the table with both hands, and showed a big smile: "Great! Brother Tuesday, I said God would bless me! ”
Unable to pay attention due to the excitement for a while, Lan Yi felt another pain in her shoulders, she sensed her gaffe, and quickly sat down embarrassedly, touched her ears and pretended to fix her hair.
Zhou Weiji glanced at her shoulder, and then said: "However, a few days ago, the Wang family sent someone to Meixian County to accuse you of abducting the only son of the Wang family. At this time, the magistrate of Meixian County also received an official document sent by our Huang County, stating the matter. So they sent for you, and they planned to take your mother and son back for interrogation, and the two thieves were taken away with them. ”
Lan Yi was slightly silent, "It's not difficult to guess, since they can't say that I am a fugitive, they must use other reasons to escort the two of us back, and this reason is also sufficient." Brother Tuesday, do you think they will set up an ambush on the road and find a way to get rid of me and the baby? ”
Zhou Weiji shook his head, "Probably not, this will make their purpose public, and the gains outweigh the losses." Besides, with me and my fourth brother protecting your mother and son along the way, we will definitely be able to save the day. The fourth brother, who went to Meixian to deliver the letter, saw Chun Tao's father and mother there, and also sent your bracelet. However, Chun Tao's father, who is also the Wang housekeeper, is a cautious person, he said that the bracelet is his daughter's belongings, but he refused to explain anything before seeing you and the child, only asked about your current situation, and asked the official to escort you back to Meixian safely. ”
Lan Yi nodded, which was also reasonable: "When are we leaving?" ”
"The day after tomorrow, on the fifth day of August, I have to leave. At that time, I will rent a carriage and let the coachman come to the village to pick you and the child up, and we will meet at the Chengnan Post Station and go together. ”
Not walking from the village together is also to avoid gossip. Lan Yi thought about it, then turned around and went to the east house, took out the household registration, jade pendant, letters and other things from the hole in the wall, and planned to hand them over to Zhou Weiji for safekeeping, these things he carried with him, which was much safer than carrying it himself.
"Second brother, you can keep these things for me, it's safer to put them on you than to put them here with me."
Zhou Weiji nodded, but the thing was placed on the table, but when Lan Yi was about to withdraw his hands, he grabbed her: "I'll help you rub your shoulders, so it will get better faster, don't move." ”
Lan Yi felt the burning temperature of his palms, and he was red with shame, this excuse was too obvious!
Zhou Weiji pulled her to sit beside him, stretched out his hands and kneaded her shoulders. His pressing technique was very professional, Lan Yi only lowered her head and didn't know how to react.
Zhou Weiji didn't speak, kneaded her for a while, and couldn't help but pick her up, let her sit on his lap, put his chin against her hair, and said softly: "Girl, I know that I am a reckless man without education, and I am older than you, so I am not worthy of you." ”
Lan Yi raised his head and wanted to speak, but he gently retracted his arms, and then said, "A few days ago, many people in the village proposed to you, but you didn't respond. I thought you were going to be widowed for the rest of your life, and I was secretly happy in my heart, thinking that it would be good to accompany your mother and son for the rest of my life. Later, knowing that you were not Lin Shan's daughter-in-law, I couldn't sleep happily for several nights, thinking about marrying you back. Girl, you are still young, and you have lost your memory, I know that I am not the husband who forced you to do this. But I can't let you go, how about you promise to marry me? I will treat you well, and I will treat the two children as my own children, so that your mother and son can live a good life. ”
What he didn't say was that if she was a runaway, he could take her with him. Now she is not, Meixian still has a family, he is afraid of going back, he heard that the family has betrothed her, and heard that they do not agree with her coming back with him, so he is in a hurry to book her first.
Lan Yi's heart beat faster, but she was still a little uneasy: "Brother Tuesday, do you know, sometimes when you see a pitiful person, you want to help her and make her live better, this is not necessarily liking, maybe it is compassion." A few days ago, our mother and son were in trouble, and you didn't care about helping each other, and we had more contact, and you may have misunderstood that you like me. ”
The drawbridge effect that the management psychology teacher talked about in class: when two people are in danger, they mistake their heartbeat for love at first sight, maybe they are the same now?
Zhou Weiji smiled, hugged her tightly and lowered her head and rubbed her little head, "Silly girl, I'm not a hairy boy!" What's going on in your little brain, where did you hear that? ”
Lan Yi hurriedly shook her head, "I don't know, I'll remember this when I wake up." ”
"Girl, you don't have to promise me now, think about it, just sue me on the way."
Lan Yi rolled her eyes, does it make a difference?
"Brother Tuesday, I want to ask you a few questions, and you have to answer me truthfully." She doesn't want to stay up with him, ambiguous this kind of thing, she has always been more disgusted, wasting time and feelings.
Zhou Weiji's heart tightened, and he had a premonition that she was going to say something, so he sighed nervously.
"First of all, are you in danger of your life?"
His heart was beating faster, and his voice was hoarse, "No, one or two thieves won't hurt me." "Actually, I want to sue him, he is not a fast catcher, he is a military attache with a big sesame, and he still has some money, but don't mention it.
"Second, if I marry you, can you promise not to beat me and my children in the future, no matter how angry you are?" She always felt that he was like a beast, looking silly and silly, but in fact he was extremely dangerous. If he is angry or in a bad mood, he loves to hit people, and the three of them are not enough for him to shoot, and they are absolutely vulnerable.
"Don't fight."
"Thirdly, if you marry me, can you treat me wholeheartedly and no one else?"
"Yes." His arms tightened even tighter.
"Last one, neither the baby nor I like your beard, can you shave it?" This is really for the sake of not suffering sin.
Zhou Weiji stiffened again: "Scrape them all off?" ”
Lan Yi shook her head: "No, as long as it is cleaned up." ”
The people here are over twenty years old, and most of them have beards, and Lan Yi is also used to seeing boys with beards, and it is really embarrassing to shave them off.
"Okay."
"My question is over. Brother Tuesday, do you have anything to ask? ”
He still rubbed her head and shook his head slowly.
"Well, I promise you. But I'm going to do it first."
Zhou Weiji finally heard what she wanted, and she promised him! She promised to marry him!
He couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and he lifted her up with both hands and spun her in circles. He wanted to yell a few more times, ran out with her in his arms, and told everyone that this girl was his Zhou Weiji's daughter-in-law, and the others didn't have a chance to worry about it.
Lan Yi was startled by him, bit her lip and grabbed his arm with her hand and didn't dare to move. He looked like he had scored in a World Cup final.
He promised to marry him, so he was so happy? Involuntarily tugging at the corners of her mouth, she laughed silently. The feeling of vertigo is actually very good.
She never thought about experiencing any vigorous love, she just wanted to be like her parents' generation, find someone who didn't hate her, get married first and then fall in love, and support each other. All she wants is a kind of stability, stability in her heart. What it would be like to be with him, she could imagine, and it was really stable.
Zhou Weiji turned around enough before he put her down and hugged her in his arms, and couldn't help laughing. Lan Yi is dizzy now, so she has to grab his clothes so that she can have a support, she hates her short man, and she doesn't even have other people's necks.
He picked her up and sat on the kang and pressed his forehead against her forehead, "Girl, if you agree, you are not allowed to go back." ”
"Hmm. But I haven't finished my words yet, I still need some time, go to Meixian to deal with the follow-up things, and I'm back."
"According to you, it is all up to you." His eyes were now full of smiles, happy as a child.
Lan Yi was embarrassed by him, so she had to persuade him to go back first.
Zhou Wei happily returned to his home. Where to sleep, he smirked at the stars all night.
He didn't expect that Lan Yi would make him feel so happy if he agreed to him.
It is a joy that I have never felt before, and I am down-to-earth. R1152
