Chapter 120: A Cough Saves a Life

Halfway through, the oil lamp in Ye Fei's hand was dark.

But he wasn't afraid.

Today's moonlight is exceptionally bright, shining on the earth like snow.

When I looked up, I was almost in my village.

Ye Fei had no choice but to carry the lamp and speed up his pace and walk back.

Look at the village not far away.

Ye Fei was thinking in his heart, how long would he get up tomorrow, what kind of breakfast to make and sell goods.

His steps were fast, and most of the people in the village were already asleep, and it seemed unusually silent.

When he finally reached the door of his house, he reached out and pushed it gently, and heard the wooden door creak open.

Before leaving, he specially said to Jiang Yu and asked her to keep the door for him.

The moon seemed to be playing hide and seek with Ye Fei, and as soon as he arrived in the house, the moonlight dissipated.

But after all, this is his own yard, what else can Ye Fei be afraid of?

As soon as he thought of the house, An An and Jiang Yu were already asleep, so he had to walk lightly into the house, for fear of waking the two of them up.

However, he didn't expect that Jiang Yu didn't go to sleep, but instead sat on a bench and took a nap at the door.

The reason why Jiang Yu sat there was because she was worried about Ye Fei's safety, and the second reason was that she wanted to wait for Ye Fei to come back.

Today, Ye Fei ran outside for a day, and she was so busy at home that her feet didn't touch the ground.

So I leaned against the door frame and fell asleep unconsciously.

But Ye Fei opened the door with a gust of cold wind, but she woke her up.

The whole person woke up in a daze, but his head was still not retracted.

But at a glance, I saw a figure walking towards his yard.

Her first reaction was not that she was worried that a thief would hurt her if there was a thief in the house, but that she was afraid of the goods in these bamboo baskets in the yard.

After all, those things, but Ye Fei worked hard for a day to get them together.

These things will be delivered to the county tomorrow, but they can be exchanged for money.

It was also used to pay for the eldest brother's leg surgery.

The night was dark, and she could only faintly discern that it was the figure of a man.

In this village, if there are orphans and widows, there is no husband at home, and if other people appear for no reason, they will be gossiped about.

Those people are gossiping, constantly distorting the facts, and gossip can break your backbone.

In fact.

The reason why Jiang Yu in his previous life desperately took An An and insisted on divorcing Ye Fei was not only because Ye Fei lost his only house in gambling.

One of the most important reasons is that he did nothing.

He is often away from home, causing many people to hang around at the door of his house.

She was often pointed at by the women in the village and talked behind her back.

The most pitiful thing is that every time she begged Ye Fei to spend more time at home with the child, he was unwilling.

Therefore, Jiang Yu has always learned to protect himself and protect An An's safety.

Seeing an unknown stranger in her house, she immediately became vigilant.

Subconsciously, I touched a scimiar behind the door.

She held it tightly in her hands, as if it would give her a great sense of courage and security.

As early as before, someone said that many people had been robbed in their homes, and Jiang Yu kept an eye on it.

I put all my farm tools behind the door, and I thoughtfully left myself a scythe.

After all, Jiang Yu and his children often stay at home and have to take precautions.

It's just that she didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

The figure felt very skillful, and walked on tiptoe, but did not make any sound.

Jiang Yu saw it in his eyes and couldn't help but be afraid for a while.

If it weren't for the cold wind that woke me up just now, I would still be asleep.

I'm afraid that I don't know what will happen when the time comes.

Seeing the figure getting closer and closer, Jiang Yu tightly held the weapon in his hand.

Cold sweat broke out uncontrollably on the palms of his hands and forehead.

Just when the figure was about to touch the door of the house, Jiang Yu closed his eyes and wanted to rush out and fight with him.

Ye Fei had just touched the threshold and was about to push the door in, only to feel a chill behind him, and couldn't help coughing.

And it was because of his cough that he saved his life.

Jiang Yu, who closed his eyes and was about to fight to the death with the thief, suddenly froze in place when he heard his cough.

She felt the voice sound very familiar.

Just when she was stunned, the person opposite was also stunned.

"Daughter-in-law, is that you?"

The dark shadow froze at the door and asked softly.

Jiang Yu was even more surprised at this time, this was clearly Ye Fei's voice.

"Ah Fei, are you back?"

The surrounding lights were blind, and the two couldn't see each other's faces clearly, so they could only distinguish by their voices.

"yes, why haven't you slept yet?"

Xu heard the fear in Jiang Yu's voice, Ye Fei nodded and said.

Coincidentally, the moon, which had been hiding in the clouds just now, ran out naughtily.

The cold moonlight sprinkled all over the ground, like a layer of hoarfrost.

And the two looked at each other, and Ye Fei was stunned.

He clearly saw Jiang Yu standing in front of him, trembling uncontrollably, and holding a sickle glowing with cold light in his hand.

He remembered the knife vividly.

A few days ago, when he went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots, he still thought that the knife was not sharp enough, and after he came back, he sharpened it himself two or three times.

Now he is actually held by his daughter-in-law.

It looks like this posture is going to deal with him.

Ye Fei's heart was afraid for a while.

In this way, he didn't cough just now, but I'm afraid that now it's time for the whole person to accompany his eldest brother.

"Daughter-in-law, what are you going to do here? Are you waiting for me, or are you going to murder your husband? ”

Seeing that Jiang Yu was still holding the sickle tightly and refused to let go, Ye Fei had no choice but to ask.

Unexpectedly, it didn't matter if this question was asked, Jiang Yu's whole person seemed to have just come back to his senses.

looked up at Ye Fei, and then at the scythe glowing with cold light in his hand, and subconsciously let go of his hand, and the scythe instantly landed with a clang.

"I ...... I didn't mean to. ”

"I wanted to wait for you to come, but when I fell asleep, I thought I was a thief, but I didn't expect you to come back."

Jiang Yu hurriedly explained.

But after thinking about it for a long time, she felt aggrieved in her heart, and couldn't help but blame.

"Didn't I bring you a lamp when you left! Why don't you come back with the lights lit and scare me? ”

Ye Fei was originally upset by Jiang Yu's performance.

But when he saw Jiang Yu's red eyes, his tone softened again.

"My fault, I forgot to refuel last time, and I died halfway through."

Hearing Ye Fei's explanation, Jiang Yu still stood aggrieved and did not move.

At this moment, her heart is still difficult to calm down.

She didn't dare to imagine what the outcome would have been if Ye Fei hadn't coughed that just now, or if she was too nervous and moved her hand without hearing it?

For a while, her heart was full of guilt and self-blame.

He lowered his head and said sullenly.

"I'm sorry, I was too scared to ......"

"It's okay, I'm not good here!"

In fact, Ye Fei didn't take it too seriously, and when he saw Jiang Yu's appearance, the small dissatisfaction in his heart also disappeared.
