Chapter 80: The Sore Spot
When he walked to the road, it was almost dawn, and Feng Yin nested in Wu Jifeng's arms, sitting on a bumpy horse, and was very lucky to enjoy the sunrise.
The orange ball slowly rose from behind the clouds, emitting a bright and dazzling circle of light, which was only a small circle at first, but soon filled the entire sky. Under the urging of this bright light, the day soon came completely.
Feng Yin watched the light getting warmer and warmer, and felt as if she had seen her own future, she snuggled back more tightly to Wu Jifeng, and couldn't help but be full of hope.
When he returned to the house, it was already dawn, and when Wu Jifeng sent Feng Yin back to the small courtyard, he saw his mother-in-law sitting under the porch as soon as he pushed the door.
The mother-in-law didn't know how long she had been sitting, and she kept looking in the direction of the courtyard gate, and her whole face was expressionless. Feng Yin and Wu Jifeng pushed open the courtyard door and walked a few steps before she stood up as if she had reacted, showed a smile, and said, "I'm back." ”
"Well, it's back. Feng Yin nodded, feeling a little sad for a moment. She walked briskly to the porch, one hand holding her mother-in-law's arm, the other holding her hand, trying to warm her frozen skin.
Feng Yin rubbed her mother-in-law's cold hands with some distress, and said with some complaints, "It's a cold day, why are you sitting outside, I've been waiting for a while." ”
The mother-in-law grabbed Feng Yin's little hand that was rolling back and forth, and then she really laughed, and said, "Cai'er brought breakfast over, and I thought you should come back too, and there was nothing to do, so I came out to take a look, and I didn't wait for a while." ”
Wu Jifeng looked at his mother-in-law's appearance at this time, and most of his previous hostility and resentment towards her suddenly disappeared. The bottom of the heart surged up one after another, and all of them became sad and pitiful.
People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless. Wu Jifeng suddenly realized at this moment that her mother-in-law had taken care of Feng Yin day and night for four years, how could she not have a trace of true feelings.
He sighed, took out a peace blessing bag from the cloth pocket he was carrying, walked to his mother-in-law, handed it over, laughed, and said, "Mother-in-law, Master Wuyan's peace blessing bag this year, except for me and Feng Yin, you are the first one in the house." ”
The mother-in-law looked at Wu Jifeng in disbelief, "Oops" before taking the lucky bag, the wrinkles on her face stretched out with a smile, she immediately folded her hands and saluted to the heavens, and said very reverently, "Amitabha, thank you Buddha, thank you Master Wuyan, this is really a unique blessing!"
Wu Jifeng immediately helped her up and said, "It's time for my mother-in-law to enjoy her happiness." ”
Feng Yin saw that her mother-in-law was so happy, and laughed, grabbed her arm and was about to go to the house, saying, "It's cold outside, let's go back to the house." ”
The mother-in-law realized that she hadn't invited the second master into the house, she patted Feng Yin's hand, and immediately invited Wu Jifeng into the house, saying, "Look at my memory, why did I forget that I was still outside the house." It just so happened that the meals were still hot, so the second master would have breakfast here before leaving. ”
Feng Yin looked at Wu Jifeng and waited for him to enter the door.
Wu Jifeng didn't move, shook his head, and said, "There are still some things to go back to discuss with Wen Shuo, I won't be here, it's cold outside, you guys come into the house quickly." He said and looked at Feng Yin, and said again, "Don't do anything after breakfast, make up for sleep, don't forget, you have to keep the New Year tomorrow night." ”
Seeing Feng Yin nodded, he turned around and hurried away.
Feng Yin helped her mother-in-law to walk into the house, thinking that the uncle might discuss with Wen Shuo what would it be, would it be his own marriage?
"Marriage", as soon as the word passed in his mind, Feng Yin's heart trembled inexplicably, not happy, but also unhappy. I just felt an indescribable inexplicable panic wandering in my head, but I couldn't settle down. But why, all this was arranged by the uncle, and the marriage is just Wen Shuo's plan, everything will go smoothly, there will be nothing wrong, I am going to leave here, I have to live well, but why is it so uneasy?
She couldn't think of it, she couldn't think it through, so she had to comfort herself, probably, but she wasn't used to it yet.
After breakfast, Feng Yin secretly poured out the bowl of bitter medicine without telling her mother-in-law as usual, and she had done it quite easily.
The mother-in-law felt sorry for her and stayed up all night, so she urged her to go to bed to make up for sleep. I thought I wouldn't fall asleep, but who knew that my mother-in-law was dreaming through the sound, and after a while, Feng Yin sank into sleep in the unfathomable scriptures.
The Demon Lord sat by the window sipping tea and looked at the shapes and shapes outside, Zuo Qiusheng sat at the table and was still concentrating on the nine rings, Luo Anhua was on the beauty couch, looking at these two people, and said in his heart, it was really a boring day.
After a while, Luo Anhua couldn't be still, he knocked on the beauty couch with a fan, and led the two people to look over, before saying, "If she doesn't go, will we really listen to her?"
Zuo Qiusheng wrinkled his nose, put down the Nine Links, looked at Luo Anhua and said very seriously: "I think we naturally have to listen to her, we can't force people to make it difficult." ”
Luo Anhua glared at him, and then looked at the Demon Lord, although he didn't feel much hope, he was still full of hope that he would have a different opinion.
The Demon Lord looked at him, but he didn't speak, as if he was deliberately teasing him, and the more anxious he was, the happier he became.
Luo Anhua glared at him, looked up at the sky, and seemed to be full of remorse for these days' hesitation, "When I knew her identity, I should have been tied back to the demon world directly, maybe she didn't cry or make trouble these days, how could it be like now, the bamboo basket was empty, and so much energy was wasted in vain." ”
The Demon Lord took another sip of tea before saying, "I remember, Xiaoqiu was not tied back to the Demon Realm. ”
Zuo Qiusheng immediately nodded and his eyes widened: "I went voluntarily!"
The Demon Lord looked at Zuo Qiusheng, smiled approvingly, and said, "So, we are not bandits, but there are no rules for tying people up." ”
Luo Anhua looked at the two people on the opposite side who were in the same breath, and the fire arched up, and scolded Zuo Qiusheng, "You little brute who eats inside and out!"
Zuo Qiusheng bit his lip, lowered his head with a face full of grievances, and muttered in a low voice, "I'm just, telling the truth." It's just that he doesn't have the temperament to harden in front of Luo Anhua after all, so although these words came out of his mouth, he still spoke like a mosquito, no different from not saying anything.
Luo Anhua ignored him, turned his face to the demon lord again, and said: "Can Xiaoqiu compare with that girl, don't you forget, that girl has the Pangu spirit hidden in her body, and she still has blood pupils on her face that can only be found by the purest bloodline of the demon clan, if you bring it back to the demon world to cure your body, maybe you can be stronger than the green pipit, don't you think it's a pity if you miss such a good combat power?"
Seeing that the Demon Lord's face still did not change, Luo Anhua was almost dizzy, and he immediately added a sentence: "Don't forget the determination you made when you returned to the Demon Realm to compete with the Heavenly Realm!"
The Demon Lord finally put down the teacup this time, changed his face, and looked at Luo Anhua gloomily, "Of course I haven't forgotten!"
Luo Anhua hadn't seen him for a long time, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and then realized that he had said the wrong thing. No matter what, I shouldn't poke him in the sore spot because of this girl. And this sore spot is still the most painful point for him.
But the words have already been spoken, and Luo Anhua has no ability to turn back time, so even if he regrets it a lot, it is too late.
He opened his mouth, thinking that he should remedy something, but it took a long time to say, "I naturally know that you haven't forgotten." ”
The Demon Lord hid the cold gloomy light in his eyes, looked out the window again, and said, "But what we need is a partner, not a tool." If she didn't want to do it in the first place, then she wouldn't be able to work with one heart and one mind, and even if she was taken back to the Demon Realm, what use would it be?"
Luo Anhua couldn't stand this atmosphere, and said at the risk of being killed if he was not careful, "Why is it useless, I still want to let her be your daughter-in-law!"
The Demon Lord's gaze really swept over coldly and glanced at him.
Luo Anhua saw that the burning hatred on his face was gone, and a hanging heart finally fell back into his stomach, and he laughed without fear of death.
The Demon Lord looked at Xiang Zuoqiu, then at the pile of things that he had piled up in the corner after he bought them, and said, "There's nothing left to do here, pack up, and go back at night." ”
Zuo Qiusheng didn't feel safe at all in this inn, and he wanted to go back for a long time, so he immediately laughed, nodded without hesitation, stood up and walked towards the pile of things.
Luo Anhua looked at the lonely side face of the Demon Lord staring at the people coming and going outside the window, and always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. In addition, he never wanted to go home empty-handed, so his brows furrowed tightly, and he felt that he should do something more.
Thinking about it, a good bad idea came out of me.
Luo Anhua laughed, and he laughed extremely satisfied, but he was afraid that his smile would be too obvious and reveal something, so he coughed twice and cleared his throat, suppressed his emotions, and then said to the Demon Monarch: "Your Majesty, it's better to wait for another day." ”
The Demon Lord looked at him and raised an eyebrow, "Do you have anything else to do?"
Luo Anhua paused, "um", and found that there didn't seem to be any suitable reason, so he simply didn't bother to make it up, but said bluntly, "Anyway, I'm not in a hurry on this day, just go back before the reunion banquet, you should all accompany me, just stay one more day." ”
The Demon Lord stared at him for a long time, and he didn't see that he was ugly, but he felt that it was okay to stay for another day, so he still nodded.
Seeing him nodding, Luo Anhua laughed, looked up at the sky outside the window, and said, "Xiaoqiu, at night, you can accompany me out." ”
"Go out?" Zuo Qiusheng was a little scared and asked with some hesitation, "Where are you going?"
The corners of Luo Anhua's lips hooked unconsciously, "You don't have to ask, you'll know at night." ”
Zuo Qiusheng lowered his head and replied with some grievances, "Okay." "But in my heart, I hope that it should not be a terrible place.
The Demon Lord frowned, he glanced at Luo Anhua, but Luo Anhua missed the gaze, and the meaning of dodging was obvious, so the Demon Lord didn't ask anything anymore, and turned his gaze out the window again.
