It wasn't until the sun went down that Xiao Yunjiao came out of the humble study.

Chunxia cherished this literacy opportunity more than the two children, and carefully folded and put away the three-character scriptures written by Xiao Yunjiao.

After dinner, Wu Da asked Shen Yuzhou to write a blackmail letter again, this time he had no excuses, straightened the paper on the table, studied ink, and wrote a letter fluently. It roughly means that they had an accident on the way, and they were rescued by a good man in the mountains and invited home as guests, and asked their families to give money to the visitors to thank them for their rescue.

"Master Wu, please take a look." Shen Yuzhou turned the letter in a different direction.

Wu Da reached out and picked it up, "I don't recognize what you wrote." ”

"You can read it to Master Wu below." Shen Yuzhou said.

Wu Da folded the letter and put it in his arms, "No need, if you dare to play tricks on this, I guarantee that the person who saved you has not yet come, and your head will hit the ground first." ”

Shen Yuzhou arched his hand and said: "I still want to live with Neiko for a few more years, and I don't dare to offend Wu Da Boss." ”

"You don't have the guts." Wu Da sneered and got up to leave.

……

When Shen Yuzhou returned to the room, Xiao Yunjiao was washing his face.

Because of teaching children to read, Chunxia treated her as a guest of honor, and even brought her washing water to the house.

"Wu Da sent the letter out?" Drying the water droplets on his face, Xiao Yunjiao asked.

Shen Yuzhou said: "He took the letter and went back to the house, and he had no intention of going out." ”

Xiao Yunjiao looked at him and asked cautiously, "He didn't see anything, did he?" ”

Shen Yuzhou shook her head, opened the door and poured out the water she had just used, and looked around the house again before re-entering the house.

He sat down on the edge of the bed, "Wu Da is very confident, in his opinion, we are the hostages of the rich and noble family who were tied back by him, and we can't make any waves." ”

"Of course, it is not excluded that there are other people behind him who are giving advice, after all, Fourth Brother Guo and those people still don't know their whereabouts, so I didn't write a code word on the letter at all, and the more important thing is the letter itself - I am far away, and he knows my words."

"Uncle will definitely be suspicious when he receives this letter, and that's enough."

Xiao Yunjiao sat down next to him, "How is your injury?" ”

Shen Yuzhou moved his shoulders, "Flesh wounds, just raise here for a few days, and when they come, it's almost over." ”

Xiao Yunjiao stared at him for a long time, and suddenly said, "You took off your clothes." ”

Shen Yuzhou turned his head to look at her suddenly, and even raised his hand to protect his collar, "This is not in line with etiquette." ”

Xiao Yunjiao reached out to pick up his collar, Shen Yuzhou's clothes didn't fit well, and he didn't dare to struggle for fear of hurting her, so she lifted the collar in two clicks.

"Is this called okay?"

Shen Yuzhou's exposed shoulders and back were interlaced with deep and shallow scars, and some of them were faintly oozing with beads of blood.

"It's okay to recuperate for two days, it's really fine." Shen Yuzhou patted her hand.

- "Girl, are you sleeping?" ”

The voice of Chunxia came from the door.

Xiao Yunjiao woke up like a dream, and then he felt that his action of picking Shen Yuzhou's collar was a bit Meng Lang, and he withdrew his hand like a hot hand and said, "Not yet." So he got up and went and opened the door.

Chunxia stood outside the door with a smile with a bunch of bottles and cans, and when she saw Xiao Yunjiao coming out, she stuffed the things in her hand into her and said, "I just heard the child's father talk about your things on the road, I guess you are afraid that you have injuries on your body, these are all medicines for you to use." ”

"Sister-in-law bothered, thank you." Xiao Yunjiao was surprised that she could be so considerate.

Chunxia carefully told her about the usefulness of each medicine and left, Xiao Yunjiao closed the door again, and said thoughtfully: "Wu Da is killing people and selling goods outside, but his wife is a good person. ”

"How?" Shen Yuzhou looked at her.

Xiao Yunjiao gave him the medicine, "You are still thinking about giving us medicine so late, and you are also dedicated to the upbringing of your children, can't you be considered a good person?" ”

Shen Yuzhou opened the medicine bottles one by one, put them on the tip of his nose and sniffed lightly, and finally picked out a bottle of medicine powder, rolled up his sleeves and sprinkled some on the wound on his arm.

"It's okay if this Chunxia really doesn't know what Wu Da is doing outside, if she knows...... Do you still think this person is a good person? ”

Xiao Yunjiao was startled for a moment, lowered his voice and asked, "What did you find?" ”

Shen Yuzhou continued to apply the medicine, and said without raising his head: "Since I came into this village, I feel very strange, I have secretly observed for a long time in the courtyard during the day, and found that this place looks like an ordinary village, the man is a layman, and the woman is at home to take care of the children and deal with farming, but that's it...... There are no old people. ”

Hearing him say this, Xiao Yunjiao also began to recall that he had indeed not seen the old man since he entered the village, not even the elderly. The village is full of middle-aged children...... It's really unusual.

Shen Yuzhou continued to analyze, "I have some guesses. This village may have been moved in its entirety a few years ago, because the old man was useless or dragged down, or even detained, so he didn't come together. ”

Xiao Yunjiao muttered, "A group of mountain bandits...... Hiding here from the government...... Then this Chunxia must know something. In that case, I still have to be more vigilant. ”

Shen Yuzhou put the lid on the medicine bottle and handed it to her, "Don't be afraid, they won't harm us at this time." I just tried this medicine and it's not poisonous, do you have any injuries on your body? Let's smear it. ”

Xiao Yunjiao only had some shallow abrasions on her body - Shen Yuzhou protected her very well. She took the medicine bottle, and Shen Yuzhou naturally turned his back and didn't look at her, leaving her plenty of space to take the medicine.

Lifting the sleeves, the elbow and wrist hurt the most, and she carefully sprinkled the powder on the wound. But when it was the turn of the injury on the shoulder and leg, Xiao Yunjiao was embarrassed herself, after all, she was still in the same room as Shen Yuzhou.

Shen Yuzhou didn't hear any movement for a long time and realized something, got up and said, "I'll go for a walk in the yard." ”

Xiao Yunjiao felt a pang in his heart, and sped up to deal with the injuries on his body. There was still some behind her that she couldn't see and ignored it, she touched it herself, and the back seemed to be bruised, and even the skin was not broken.

After doing this, she opened the door to call Shen Yuzhou, but she didn't expect to see Chunxia who had just come out of the house as soon as she opened the door.

"Sister, brother, you two still haven't slept so late?" Chunxia said with a smile.

But after Shen Yuzhou analyzed it, Xiao Yunjiao didn't dare to think that she was a simple good person anymore, so she haha and said: "I changed places, and suddenly I couldn't sleep, so I told my husband to come to the courtyard to admire the moon." ”

Chunxia looked like she had come out to get up at night, and she didn't know if she really got up at night or heard something moving from their side. "I've read a book, it's different, I don't know what this moon has to see, I can see it every day when I look up...... Look, I'm in a hut. ”

Shen Yuzhou took Xiao Yunjiao back to the room, "Look, I said that I would disturb the eldest brother and sister-in-law so late, so let's go back to sleep." ”

Saying that, he nodded to Chunxia, "Let's go to sleep and don't disturb you." ”

The moment he turned around and closed the door, Xiao Yunjiao raised his eyes and saw Chunxia's gaze looking at this side through the crack in the door.

She pulled Shen Yuzhou to lie down on the only bed in the house, and quickly blew out the lamp.

"Chunxia is watching us." She affirmed.

Shen Yuzhou originally wanted to sleep on the ground at night, but she lay down when she said this.

"It's definitely not the first time these people have kidnapped people, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at us in this village except for Chunxia. Tomorrow I'll see if I can walk around the village and find out more news. ”

Xiao Yunjiao replied and stopped talking, as if he was sleepy.

Shen Yuzhou lay flat on the bed, half an arm's length away from her, and he could clearly hear the sound of her breath between her breaths. He didn't dare to move, he felt that the muscles and bones of his whole body were stiff, and even his brain was much duller.

It took him a long time to get used to this strange feeling, and by this time, Xiao Yunjiao's breathing had gradually calmed down.

She was probably asleep.

Shen Yuzhou thought so, turned over cautiously, and looked at her quiet side face through the moonlight spilling in from the window.

These few days have been really hard, and she has lost a lot of weight. But it is rare for such a squeamish person to complain in this situation.

Shen Yuzhou looked at it, and the sleepiness pulled his eyelids down, but it didn't suppress the corners of his slightly raised mouth.

In the dark, Xiao Yunjiao quietly opened his eyes a slit, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the people around him close their eyes. His gaze seemed to be warm, so that she almost couldn't even pretend to be asleep.

She turned her face sideways and looked at Shen Yuzhou, who was sleeping for a while, and gently turned over to him, and then she really fell asleep.

The pale golden morning light pierces through the clouds and mist, enveloping this small village deep in the mountains, bringing a new day.

Without the barrier of the bed curtain, Xiao Yunjiao was awakened by the light in the room very early.

Before she could open her eyes, she felt that something was wrong with the touch around her. I seem to be surrounded by a warm quilt, but it is much harder than a quilt.

Lifting her eyelids, she saw two brown linen collars intertwined. Looking further up, there are jaws with clear lines and some blue stubble.

She was in Shen Yuzhou's arms.

Realizing that he had shared the bed with Shen Yuzhou all night, and didn't know when he ran into his arms, Xiao Yunjiao felt that his face was steaming, and he just wanted to get out of this bed quickly.

Who knew that she hadn't just moved, and someone in her sleep turned over and directly suppressed her, not to speak, but also clasped her hands!

"Who!"

Shen Yuzhou's body reacted very quickly, but his brain did not keep up with his actions. When he reacted, Xiao Yunjiao had already been pressed under him by him.

The whole room was silent for a long time before Shen Yuzhou let go of his hand a little bit.

"I'm sorry, I slept too soundly yesterday and forgot you were there."

He had just woken up, his voice was imperceptibly hoarse, and the two of them were almost close together, this sound was in Xiao Yunjiao's ears, and there was a faint airflow.

Itchy.

Somehow, Xiao Yunjiao swallowed his saliva.

It was only after this move that she realized what she was doing, and her face suddenly became hotter and moved uncomfortably.

Then, she turned her head in embarrassment and no longer dared to meet Shen Yuzhou's eyes.

Shen Yuzhou also froze, some strange and normal reactions in his body made him panic to look at the expression on Xiao Yunjiao's face, and only relieved his mind after confirming that there was no disgust or discomfort on that red little face.

He stiffly rolled over with his back to her, and for a moment no one spoke.

I don't know how long it took, but I only heard the chickens in the yard crow several times, and there was slowly the sound of others walking in the yard, Xiao Yunjiao whispered: "We...... Get up. ”
