After a lot of work, the night was already dark. Xie Miaoxuan tried his best to distinguish the road under his feet with his eyes wide open, and reminded Daniel to pay attention to his steps.
Hang Chi Hang Chi As soon as we reached the foot of the mountain, someone came with a torch.
Xie Miaoxuan raised his eyes and saw that the person who came was tall and handsome. The moonlight was behind him, and he stood backlit and looked as handsome as an immortal.
Ever since she stopped demanding that he could only wear the linen clothes of a low-class servant, he often wore white silk clothes. His black hair was only tied up with a blue scarf. His simple clothes gave him a cold and ascetic feeling of independence from the world.
It seemed that what he was holding was not a torch, but a misty umbrella on the boating lake.
As he got closer, he could clearly see that the muscles of his lower arm were tight and strong. Hidden under his cold appearance was a force that no one dared to despise.
Appearances can really be deceiving.
It's her handsome child adoptive husband.
Xie Yuanju's eyesight was very good and he had already noticed the man on the bull's back and the blood drops hanging from his fingertips.
His gaze stayed for a moment and then looked at her. Naturally, she also saw the look in his eyes. She naturally handed the long knife in her hand to him and said, "This man picked it up on the mountain. His kung fu is quite special. He walks very lightly." Wei Qian, I plan to learn sword skills from him. It lasts for three months, and then the road will be overturned. Let the doctor come and treat his injuries first."
The affirmative tone of the words was regarded as a foregone conclusion, not a discussion.
Of course, Xie Miaoxuan didn't think there was anything wrong. He was already very nice and special to him, and he should be able to feel this special treatment.
Learn sword skills?
"Look at this knife again,"
Xie Yuanju's eyebrows twitched and his expression was unclear. Xie Miaoxuan asked, "What, you think it's inappropriate? No?"
It was rare in the world for a girl to learn swordsmanship. Here, it would indeed be shocking. It was normal for him to feel strange.
"No, I think it's appropriate. Whatever the girl wants to learn, she can just do it according to her own heart." He spoke gently and elegantly.
He had already sensed her strong sense of self-reliance. This morning, she first asked him if she could learn martial arts from him, and then asked him to go to Kyoto to handle business while she faced the task of taking care of the business.
She didn't even hide it or show it so obviously.
He would not use the current discipline for women to admonish her. It was not a bad thing if she wanted to learn martial arts. Not only did he think it was very appropriate, he even agreed with it.
But I still reminded him, "This person's origins should not be simple."
Xie Miaoxuan was surprised. He didn't expect him to be so open-minded.
She thought he would give some advice, but she had already thought of her words, and now she swallowed them all in her stomach. Was he just worried that this person was dangerous to her?
She walked closer to him. He was more than a head taller than her. When she got closer, she could only look up and look into his eyes. She smiled, "What are you afraid of? I'm here with you, aren't you?"
He was even in the mood to pat him on the shoulder and tease, "If he really gets angry and hurts someone, can you beat him? Are you confident?"
Xie Yuanju stared at her eyes for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Well, I can protect you."
As the night gets darker, insects and birds chirp one after another.
The main courtyard is brightly lit, and all the tribes have moved here. There are hundreds and dozens of people who are not too crowded. They are standing or squatting in various corners, killing chickens and cooking meat, and eating happily while holding hands.
The fragrance floated far away. Today, farmers got a lot of food. Everyone's house was filled with granaries, and they suddenly became rich. At first, some people were reluctant to eat so well, but now they can smell it in the main courtyard. The smell of meat was so fragrant that they couldn't bear it any longer, so they all tried to find ways to get some oil and water to fill their stomachs.
Boxes of gold and silver treasures, calligraphy, paintings and calligraphy were put into the warehouse, and there were many that could not be stacked and placed in the main room.
Touching these things, Xie Miaoxuan's heart moved.
There is still about a year before the advent of troubled times. By then, wars and natural disasters will continue, and food prices will skyrocket. A gold cake cannot be exchanged for a bag of food.
She should have made plans earlier.
When Xie Yuanju came over with the food, he saw her face lighting up while touching a big gold cake. After only one day, she seemed to have lost the delicate and delicate look of aristocratic family. If replaced by the girl she was two days ago, she would probably be the same. They even refused to keep the gold and silver in the house.
She would feel that these dirty things have tarnished the noble demeanor of her family.
"Girl, dinner is here."
On the dinner plate are porridge made from polished rice and exquisitely arranged meat dishes.
Smelling the aroma of rice, Xie Miaoxuan felt that she had already started to sing about the empty city plan in her belly. At the end of the day, she took a few mouthfuls of water and a few mouthfuls of bean cakes that were difficult to swallow.
Now that the manor is under control, we can finally eat with peace of mind.
"Thank you." She sat down and started eating, very quickly, but with a fairly elegant attitude.
Xie Yuanju had adapted to her unusually normal attitude in the past two days. He heard this thank you and his expression remained calm. When she had almost eaten, he handed her another white handkerchief.
Only then did Xie Miaoxuan notice that he had been standing. He took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth and said, "Sit down."
"The girl's marriage has been arranged," Xie Yuanju sat down and put a page of yellow-backed paper on the table. "The people sent by the Xie family to pick up the girl yesterday returned without success, but they did not dare to announce it yet. I'm looking for a girl everywhere."
"The three of them, Mother Nian, who were knocked unconscious, woke up and wanted to return to the Xie Mansion with the injured Wen Zhuo. I deliberately diverted the people sent by the Xie Mansion to look for people so that they did not run into each other. They can only walk all the way back to Kyoto on their legs. With their feet, they will return to the Xie family tonight at the latest."
"As Xie Yuaneng becomes the head of the clan, he should not be deceived so easily. The loopholes in the case of bandits blocking the road and robbing will be found. As long as Mr. , we will be found within two days at the latest.”
Xie Yuanju explained the situation of the Xie family one by one with a low and gentle voice.
Of course Xie Miaoxuan knew this truth. She had no intention of completely getting rid of the Xie family's big house through this strategy. Even if she could be deceived for a while at first, she would definitely find many loopholes with a thorough analysis. The idea that bandits and bandits appeared is somewhat untenable.
However, the thought that not only did they not get the huge fortune they were waiting for, but they also had to spend money on them, causing them a period of heartache, this was enough to make her happy for a moment.
All she wanted was to have a few days to take a breather, so she used extraordinary means to deal with Cao Youxin quickly and ruthlessly.
Once her side is in order, she won't be afraid at all even if the head of the Xie family and his clan come knocking on the door.
It only took him a day to inquire about it, and he was able to learn so much information. She thought it would take several days just to register the household registration, but not only did he do it easily, he also had time to sneak around and visit Grandma Xie and the three of them. .
Even she was amazed at how efficient it was.
I can’t help but sigh, what a material that can be made!
The candlelight flickered, and his brows were painted dreamily by the warm yellow light. His eyes were as vast as a starry night, and his gaze was bottomless.
The bridge of her nose is high and her body is as tall and straight as a pine tree, forming a picture of beauty.
A good waist is full of strength, with the clearness of a young man and the masculinity of an adult man at the same time. The candlelight reflects on the smooth, handsome and flawless face.
She is as beautiful as Pan An and Wei Jie.
Xie Miaoxuan blinked at the beauty.
