Chapter 113: The Way Back

On the fifth day of the eighth month, Lan Yitian got up to cook before dawn, boiled a few more eggs, and planned to take them on the road to eat when the children were hungry. After cooking and feeding the living creatures of the house, she called the two children to eat. After the meal, she put away the chopsticks, spoons and bamboo cups, and prepared to make milk powder or walnut powder for the two of them to drink when she was hungry on the way.

The second uncle's family came over before the hour, and Li brought the buns he made, which were still hot, and let her eat them on the road. Sister-in-law Niu, Yang and others also came over with things and told her to be careful all the way.

"Brother and sister, why don't you say go! My sister-in-law still wants to follow you into the mountains to harvest red fruits. "The eighth wife and the second sister-in-law are very reluctant to Lan Yi, she and Sister-in-law Niu's family have been busy with the mountain goods business, it can be said that their feet do not touch the ground, and they haven't been able to take much care of Lan Yi's family to chat recently.

"Second sister-in-law, while the weather is warm, let's go early and return early."

"Then you three rent a carriage by yourself, it's too uneasy. No, someone still delivered it well. If Lin Xi and Lin Yuan really can't get out, let my family go, although he is honest, he can also help look at the luggage, right? The eighth mother-in-law and the second sister-in-law glanced at Wang Linxi and said dissatisfiedly.

They didn't know about Lan Yi and Zhou Weiji going together, so it saved them the trouble of explaining.

Second Uncle Wang was too lazy to meet her, but Liu couldn't help but say: "I said Sister-in-law on Tuesday, what you say is not good, what does it mean to be unable to get away, and besides, sister-in-law has ......"

Chen hurriedly pulled her and said to Lan Yi with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I heard the sound of horses' hooves, I guess it's the carriage that has arrived, let's see if anything has fallen, this way is far away." Come, Yu'er, go and find out with your aunt? ”

Yu'er was pulling her brother and the goat to say goodbye, and she really didn't know what they were talking about.

The bearded Gao Feng went to the door of Lan Yi's house in civilian clothes, greeted Lan Yi and helped carry the luggage.

Finally about to set off, Lan Yi and the three looked back at their yard, very reluctant.

Seeing them like this, the second aunt Li said with a smile: "The second aunt at home will take care of you, and I will ensure that you will still be the same when you come back." Let's go, take care of yourself and your children on the way, and remember to come back as soon as possible. ”

Lan Yi said goodbye to everyone, handed over the key to the Li family and set off.

Walking out of the village, Gao Feng turned around and said, "Second sister-in-law, junior brother Gao Feng, and Brother Tuesday are brothers." The second brother went to the prison to pick up people, and asked me to come and pick you up. ”

Lan Yi looked at the smiling bearded peak in front of him with a black line on his face, how did Zhou Weiji's stupid bear introduce himself to others, his daughter-in-law? Fortunately, the two children did not notice anything abnormal.

The carriage arrived at the south gate of the county seat, Zhou Weiji was already waiting there, and there was a horseback servant and a carriage on the side, and the two shopkeepers who had captured their mother and son should be in the car.

Gao Feng and Zhou Weiji greeted him, and Zhou Weiji turned his head to a servant on horseback and said, "Wang Zhukuai, this car is Chun Tao and the child, do you want to inspect it?" ”

Wang Zhukuai was a thin white man with a long face, and his face was a little like Bai Impermanence, and he nodded directly.

Gao Feng opened the car curtain, and Lan Yi leaned out of the carriage slightly with the baby in her arms. The driver also opened the curtain of the carriage, and the two of them looked at Lan Yi's mother and son and nodded.

Although they looked a little wolf in this matter, they were in good spirits, and there was still a smile on the corner of their mouths, it seemed that they should have received some reassuring news.

Seeing this, Wang Zhuai hugged his fist at Zhou Weiji, "There is no problem with people." Follow the path we agreed upon. Zhou Bantou, be careful all the way. ”

Zhou Weiji also clenched his fists, "There will be a period later." ”

After seeing a few people leave, Zhou Weiji turned his head, he really cleaned up his beard today, and the whole person looked a lot fresher. Gao Feng saw that he had been holding back a smile for a long time, and now he grinned his beard and said with a wicked smile: "Second brother, the second sister-in-law has brought it to you." ”

Zhou Weiji glared at him, at this time Lan Yi had already lowered the door curtain, Zhou Weiji knew that she was shy, "Don't scream!" ”

After setting off, Zhou Weiji rode a horse parallel to the carriage, he touched his chin, and wanted to ask her if she still liked her current appearance, but the kid Gao Feng was disturbed.

In the carriage, the baby muttered, "Mother, the baby rides a horse." ”

"I'm afraid of being seen now, so we'll ride later."

Yu'er hugged her small satchel with copper coins and said regretfully: "Mother, why did Uncle Tuesday shave off his beard?" ”

Lan Yi was holding the baby, her face a little hot.

Zhou Weiji, who only has a short beard, has an angular rectangular face full of three-dimensionality, a round and convex chin, a straight and firm nose, sharp eyes, and thick black eyebrows, making him look several years younger.

Moreover, he is very handsome, and he is much more energetic and temperamental than his cousin, Zhou Weipeng, Yang's husband. Lan Yi was a little embarrassed to see him like this, it seemed that after shaving off her beard, Zhou Weiji gave her a greater sense of oppression, not annoying, she could have a faint surprise, just like seeing a stupid bear suddenly transform into an elegant and agile black panther.

The two children began to chirp and scream, excited to see everything, the baby is now at the stage of understanding the world, and will ask when he sees anything, "What is this, what is that?" "The two children even want the second uncle to hold and ride a horse, and the autumn is cool at this time, which is suitable for traveling.

Three days later, the two began to wilt and asked when their mother would arrive. Lan Yi simply made a lot of pieces of paper about Truth or Dare, and the three of them played together, and there was constant laughter in the carriage every day, and time was faster.

Zhou Weiji was very depressed, he thought that he could get along with the girl more along the way and enhance his relationship, but he didn't want her to always hide from him, he didn't know what was wrong.

On the third night, he couldn't wait any longer. When Gao Feng was already asleep and snoring, he quietly came to Lan Yi's door and knocked on the door gently.

Lan Yi heard the familiar knock on the door and got up to light the oil lamp, and couldn't help but feel her heart jumping.

Zhou Wei looked down at her, dodged in and closed the door, pulled her to sit at the table, but didn't say a word.

Lan Yi knew that he hadn't talked to him much in the past few days, which made him feel uncomfortable. But one is his appearance, and the other is that Gao Feng's pair of thieves are staring at him, where does she dare to say anything.

Lan Yi couldn't stand such quietness, she was still embarrassed to look at Zhou Weiji's face, lowered her head and asked, "Second brother, is there anything wrong with coming here so late?" ”

Zhou Weiji took out two poetry books from his arms and put them on the table. "I see that you have been bored on the road for the past few days, so let's send you these two books to relieve your boredom."

Lan Yi took it, it turned out to be a collection of poems by Qu Yuan and Tao Yuanming, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "Second brother, where did you get this?" What a book! ”

"It's been there before."

How did Lan Yi know that she finally looked at Zhou Weiji with a pair of bright big eyes at this time, which made him happy and chest tight, remembering that she had wanted to give her a book many times, and remembering the scene where she and Lei Tianze talked about learning.

Lan Yi couldn't wait to flip up. Tao Yuanming's poetry collection is okay, she still sees it in the market. But Qu Yuan's collection of works is the first time I have seen it here, Qu Yuan is also her favorite poet, history records that there are many of his works, but there are only twenty-five that have been passed down to modern times, this collection of poems will definitely make her a great harvest.

Sure enough, there are a few articles in it that she hasn't seen, whether it's true or not, Lan Yi is like a treasure. Reluctantly closed the book, and looked up to see Zhou Weiji on the opposite side with a gloomy and complicated face.

"Second brother, what's wrong with you? What upsets you? ”

Zhou Weiji saw that she was finally willing to look up, and pretended to be sad and said: "Girl, I just recognize a few big characters, do you think I don't have the knowledge of Lei Tianze?" ”

He just diverted the conversation so that he could ask why she had been like this these days. He believed that Lan Yi did not dislike it, otherwise he would not agree to follow him, but he was still faintly uneasy in his heart.

Lan Yi really fell for it, she couldn't bear to see his expression, the two of them were going to live for a lifetime, she wanted to make him happy, and she couldn't leave this pimple.

"Second brother, I can't ride a horse, I can't box, and I can only be arrested if I encounter bad guys, do you dislike me?"

He was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood why she said this, and his heart calmed down, but he still pretended to be low and said: "You are a woman, and these beatings and killings are men's business." How could I dislike you because of this, you don't have a lot of heart. ”

"Second brother, why do you think that I will dislike you if you don't learn?"

She finally asked, and Zhou Wei said depressedly: "You have ignored me for the past few days, and you haven't even looked at me." You and that Lei Tianze just talk and laugh, but not for me. ”

Lan Yi thought it was funny, how could he be jealous of such a tall man, but he made her very useful in this way: "Because my third brother and I have the same hobbies, it is inevitable that we will have some sympathy for each other and say a few more words." Second brother, when you meet a good horse riding and a good punch, don't you have to say a few more words? ”

Zhou Weiji nodded after listening: "Girl, you ignore me because you don't have the same hobbies as me?" ”

After being a soldier and a catcher for so long, he naturally knows how to tempt people to speak.

Lan Yi poked her finger embarrassedly, how could she sue him, he looked so dangerous that he made him?

Zhou Weiji saw that her little ears were red, and couldn't help but lift her chin, seeing her little face, her eyes were staring, but she didn't dare to look at him, and couldn't help but want to kiss him: "Now you don't even want to look at me?" ”

"Brother Tuesday, you are so good-looking, it makes me feel stressed. I'm afraid that other women will snatch you away from me in the future. Lan Yi said it, and after finishing speaking, she felt that her face was ripe. In front of people who know and believe, she has never been able to hide things.

"Silly girl! I've promised you that you're the only one in your life, so why are you still thinking about it. If you think I'm good-looking, you're a stupid girl. After he finished speaking, admiring her blushing appearance, he slowly lowered his head and grabbed her red lips, and held them in his mouth and grinded.

Lan Yi's heart beat faster at this point, and she actually felt a lot better thinking that she didn't have a big beard.

Zhou Wei took a long time to let go of her, hugged her in his arms, and smiled with satisfaction.

The red candle has a high fever, and the room is peaceful.

"Second brother, can you tell me about the war? I haven't seen it. Lan Yi asked softly, she didn't know him and wanted to know about him.

Zhou Weiji thought for a while, "A war is a war, there is nothing to see, every time it is your life and death." I remember one time, I led people to sneak attack the enemy's convoy transporting grain and grass, and they actually got the news in advance and set up an ambush."

Although Zhou Weiji's tone was flat and his rhetoric was not rich, Lan Yi could still hear that it was very thrilling.

This girl was afraid of him with wide eyes for a while, and then she squinted and pursed her lips for him, and when she heard that he was sealed for merit, she smiled and was happy for him, and her little face changed very quickly. Zhou Weiji actually felt sour and ripples in his heart, as if he had found some identity, and he talked more and more, and unconsciously, the paper window changed from dark to bright, and the two reluctantly separated.

From then on, Zhou Weiji drove forward, staring at the big bulb of the big light bulb of the eye pie, and quickly went to Meixian to inquire about the situation, and made an appointment with Steward Wang to meet in the woods outside the north gate of Meixian County at noon on the tenth day, and brought a letter written by Lan Yi to Xia Wan to explain the details.

After the four of them were left, Lan Yi felt a lot more comfortable. The two children also hugged Zhou Weiji and asked questions, and they were very happy. When he played Truth or Dare in the inn, he would also add Zhou Weiji, every time he was unlucky, either learning to bark a pig or learning to bark a donkey, Zhou Weiji was also very cooperative, and he was willing to be punished every time, making the three of them laugh more than once, and gradually the relationship between the four of them became a lot closer.

For breakfast and dinner, Lan Yi would also make a bowl of goat milk powder or walnut powder for him, although Zhou Weiji didn't like the taste, he also drank it all, but he wanted to eat Lan Yi's roast duck, meat buns and bone broth. R1152
