The snow is fluttering, and now it is the end of the year, and there are many pedestrians coming and going in the market, even if the conditions at home are not good, but for the New Year, they are willing to take out some to continue and buy some New Year's goods.

Zhao Ling'er was carrying a wine gourd in his hand, which was filled with spirits, and Lao Zhao was holding a paper bag in his hand, which should have been bought with some meat, because there was grease that had soaked the paper bag.

"Daddy, what do you say Brother Star Soul likes to eat?"

"Otherwise, let's go to Tianyue Tower and bring him something delicious to go back!"

Tianyue Lou is the best restaurant in this small town, and the chef in it has nothing to say about his cooking skills, and whoever comes, he can't find a fault.

But the price inside is not affordable for ordinary people, and the people who eat in it are either rich or expensive, either some dignitaries, or some rich businessmen, and some idle sons.

Lao Zhao nodded, touched the few money in his pocket, and after a rough calculation, it should still be enough, so the two went straight to Tianyue Tower.

There were so many people along the way that the already wide street was even more congested, and people were eager to move forward face to face.

"Whew!"

Finally squeezed out, Zhao Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, looking at her father, looking a little embarrassed.

The two of them walked into the Tianyue Tower.

The decoration here is exquisite, and at first glance, it is carefully arranged by someone, whether it is the color matching inside or the placement pattern of the accessories, it is eye-catching.

"It's an honor for the two guest officers to visit our store!"

A waiter greeted him at the door, and he could see at a glance that the two were not rich people, but they were guests when they entered the door, and they were very enthusiastic.

"Help me make a purple jade green dragon cake, I want to take it away!"

Lao Zhao lowered his voice very low, looked at the menu sent by the waiter, and with the money on his body, he only had enough money to buy this dish.

The waiter nodded, and ran away quickly, ignoring the two of them.

Zhao Ling'er looked at the beautiful decoration and thought to herself how nice it would be if she could stay here forever.

Girls always have no immunity to beautiful things, even Zhao Ling'er, who is mentally mature, cannot escape.

But when she looked around, she didn't know that there were a pair of eyes looking at her.

On this day, Yue was five floors upstairs, Zhao Ling'er and his father were standing in the hall on the first floor at this time, and someone was eating upstairs on them, so they inadvertently lowered their heads, and happened to see Zhao Ling'er, and they couldn't take their eyes back for a while.

Although Zhao Ling'er is not a country and a city, she is also a sinking fish and a goose, and she has never been decorated, as crystal clear as a drop of water.

"What's the matter, Brother Li, have you taken a fancy to her?"

There were two people sitting opposite the table on the second floor, and the person surnamed Li who had been looking at Zhao Ling'er was also handsome, but his eyes were always fierce.

Opposite him, sat a young man in a pale pink robe, with an unknown amount of gouache on his face, which made people feel a little crooked at a glance.

He shook a folding fan in his hand, and his words were full of contempt.

The man surnamed Li nodded and said:

"Brother Shuchi, I don't know, if this woman doesn't apply fat powder, she will have a different style, it will make me crazy!"

"Cut, you stinky men, you know how to make excuses indiscriminately, and in the end, you don't want to forcibly occupy people, there is a kind of you doing it directly, chirp crookedly!"

The man surnamed Li glanced at him, the fierce light in his eyes was a little stronger, he already had a plan in his heart, but there were too many people here, and he couldn't make a move.

"Hehe, don't be in a hurry, don't worry, when they get out of the city, it's not too late to do it when the time comes!"

Saying that, the man surnamed Li took the wine glass and drank it all, wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth, and continued to look at Zhao Ling'er.

The restaurant was very fast, and in just a while, the purple jade green dragon cake was ready, and it was packed in a paper bag and handed to Lao Zhao.

Lao Zhao settled the account and pulled Zhao Ling'er to prepare to go home.

Seeing that the two people downstairs moved, the man surnamed Li upstairs didn't say a word, stood up, and rushed straight downstairs.

"Hey, Master Li, you haven't settled yet!"

Seeing the man surnamed Li leaving, a young man chased a few steps, but he couldn't catch up at all.

"Yo Yo Yo, what are you chasing, I can still owe you a few food money, your Li Ye is busy with other things, it's not that I'm still here, why don't you come over and have two drinks with me?"

The guy shivered and hurriedly took a few steps back, for fear that this tree pool would misunderstand him.

This town is not big, but there are a lot of capable people, this man surnamed Li is the small leader of the gang in the city, he has nothing to do every day, bullying men and women all day long, and everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak.

This man named Shuchi is also a ruthless stubble, he likes to bully women and men, and I don't know how many men will tremble when they see him, so they hurriedly detour.

Out of the town, the snow suddenly became a little heavier, Zhao Ling'er buttoned the hat on the top of the cloak on his head, dusted off the snow on his shoulder, and put the purple jade green dragon cake close to his body with the other hand, for fear that it would not taste good after it was cold.

"Daddy, let's go quickly, Brother Star Soul should be hungry, and we've been gone for almost a day. ”

"Oh, you stupid girl......"

Lao Zhao wanted to speak and stopped, he only regarded Shen Xingsoul as a relative, and Zhao Ling'er had very complicated feelings for him.

How could Lao Zhao not see Zhao Ling'er's careful thoughts, but he didn't want his daughter to be like this, no matter whether Shen Xingsoul could recover or not, and they were both people from two worlds, there could be no result, and Shen Xingsoul's current physical condition, I'm afraid it is unknown whether it can pass this year.

"Daddy, what are you muttering, hurry up, it's snowing heavily, and the mountain road is difficult!"

"It's hard to walk on a mountain road, why don't you go home with me?"

The man surnamed Li walked out from behind a big tree in front of the road, with a smile on his face, which looked very obscene.

"Who are you, what do you want to do?"

Lao Zhao grabbed Zhao Ling'er and protected her behind him, and such a man suddenly appeared in front of him, listening to the meaning of his words, this person is definitely not a good person.

"Master Yue, you don't have to be nervous, the son-in-law naturally takes a fancy to your daughter, come with me, I don't lack anything in my house, only a beautiful lady!"

Saying that, he pounced directly, and was about to reach out and grab Lao Zhao.

"Assistant!"

Lao Zhao was stunned, and the man surnamed Li was also stunned, but he didn't expect Zhao Linger to take the initiative to stand up at this time.

"Why do you want to marry me?"

"Heh, who doesn't know who is in this small city, who doesn't know, I stomp my feet, the whole town has to shake three times, why do you ask me?"

"Very good, since you have such power, come to my house in three days to marry Ming Media, and take me through the door with a sedan chair, otherwise you won't be able to marry me!"

"When I am a fool, let you go today, where will I find you, unless I leave your father. ”

"Okay, I'll go with you, but I'm going to have a few words with my daughter!"

Lao Zhao thought for a while, and then agreed, he knew that if he moved, he would not be the opponent of the person in front of him, and he still had a knife in his hand, although he was not out of the body, it was also chilling.

"Daddy......"

"Ling'er come over and give you a few words for my father!"

Lao Zhao attached himself to Zhao Ling'er and whispered:

"Ling'er, today you and my father and daughter are unfortunate, encountered this incident, when your mother was dying, I promised her that I would take care of you no matter what, today I will never let you marry this person, listen to the words of my father, take the star soul with you when you go back, how far you go, never go back." ”

The tears in Zhao Ling'er's eyes couldn't be suppressed, flowing down like a stream.

"Daddy, you're ......"

Zhao Ling'er wanted to say something, but was hugged into his arms by Lao Zhao, and then Lao Zhao turned around and walked straight to the man surnamed Li.

"Shall we go?"

"Okay, good, Lord Yue, it's really refreshing!"

"Lady, do you have anything to tell your husband?"

Zhao Ling'er looked at his disgusting face, gritted her teeth and said:

"If my father is missing a hair, I won't let you go!"

The man surnamed Li laughed and said:

"Don't worry, this lady, I will naturally treat my father-in-law well, but if the three days are up, when I go to your house to greet my relatives, the consequences of not seeing you will be very miserable. ”

"By the way, I don't know the name of the lady yet!"

"Zhao Ling'er!"

"Ling'er, Ling'er, a good name, it's really like its name, the Lingxiu of Zhong Tiandi, under Li Wentao!"

Zhao Ling'er took the things from her father's hand and turned to leave, she always blamed herself along the way, this was all the trouble she had caused.

And she also secretly made up her mind that no matter what, she couldn't abandon her father, as long as she sat in the sedan chair after three days, then her father would be safe, but when she prepared a dagger, she knew her life on the night of the cave room, and everything would be fine at that time.

She had already made up her mind in her heart, and her steps were a little firmer, and she walked all the way, leaving only a line of lonely footprints.

In the midst of the howling wind and snow, accompanied Zhao Ling'er to drift away.

"Squeak!"

Zhao Linger pushed the courtyard door and walked in, the wind and snow had stopped, she shook off the falling snow on her body, and went straight to the kitchen.

After putting the things in her hand, she came to Shen Xingsoul's room again, Shen Xingsoul, as before, hid in the quilt to rest at this time, and when he heard footsteps, he opened his eyes.

"Coming back?"

"Well, it's back!"

"What about Uncle Zhao, why didn't you come back together?"

"Oh, Daddy met an acquaintance, was invited to dinner, and may be back a few days late. ”

"By the way, Brother Star Soul, I brought you something delicious, you sit up quickly, I'll get it for you." ”

Saying that, Zhao Ling'er took back the purple jade green dragon cake after a while and handed it to Shen Xingsoul.

"Brother Star Soul, you taste it!"

Shen Xingsoul didn't think much about it, and after opening it, he put a piece in his mouth, and it was still slightly warm, not completely cool.

"Well, it tastes good, Ling'er, you can also taste it!"

"My father and I have eaten it, you can write and eat it, I brought it back for you. ”

Shen Xingsoul didn't think much about it, because the pastry tasted really good, so he ate more.

There are still three days, which is the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, but for Zhao Linger, there are still three days, which is the moment when she says goodbye to this world.
