At the screen wall of the Governor's Mansion, Lan'er looked at Xi Jin who had left and returned, and asked doubtfully: "Sister Jin, didn't you go to pick up a face towel? Why didn't you find it?"
Xi Jin turned pale and shook his head: "I didn't find it, forget it, let's go back."
She had just arrived at the gate of the Governor's Mansion and realized that the face towel she had put in her sleeve was missing. Thinking that she would meet many people along the way back, she planned to go back to the yard to look for it.
But when she returned, she overheard the conversation between the governor and his wife.
She never expected that the governor of Yazhou would actually have rebellious intentions.
Fortunately, she was still calm and turned around to leave without being discovered by them.
But this conspiracy was of great importance, and Xi Jin immediately thought of Xie Luo's safety!
Obviously the governor intended to win over Xie Luo. Perhaps Xie Luo's father had some contacts with the governor back then. Did Xie Luo know the twists and turns? What should we do if Xie Luo is involved this time?
Although she and Xie Luo were together every day, she knew very little about the forces behind Xie Luo.
Just like this hibiscus cake. Miss Ding clearly said that this hibiscus cake was very rare, but why could Xie Luo bring it back to her every two days? What did he hide from her?
Xi Jin walked out thoughtfully, and when he reached the corner of the gate of the Governor's Mansion, he was accidentally hit by someone getting off the carriage.
"Who dares to bump into me, sir?" The man shouted, his tone full of impatience.
Xi Jin hurriedly knelt down, lowered his eyes and said, "A civilian woman apologizes, please forgive me."
"You..." Feng Shen bent down and looked at Xi Jin carefully, "Why do you look familiar to me?"
Xi Jin raised his head and took a look, and immediately thought of who the person in front of him was. It was Feng Shen!
On the first day they came to Yazhou, they were taken to his camp and allowed to choose from him. If Xie Luo hadn't asked Lieutenant General Liang at that time, they would have become his playthings.
Thinking of this, Xi Jin lowered his head lower.
"Who are these two people?" Feng Shen asked the guard at the door loudly.
Seeing this, the guard hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Sir Hui Feng, these two people are making clothes for the young lady."
"Making clothes? Oh, I remembered. Aren't you Xie Luo's wife?" Feng Shen touched his chin and looked at Xi Jin with a lewd expression, "I really do have a vision. That day in the military camp, I can see that you are a beautiful woman."
"Xie Luo has hidden you very deeply!" Feng Shen said, pulling Xi Jin up, "I want to see what Xie Luo's woman is like?"
As Feng Shen said this, he was about to carry Xi Jin into the carriage. Xi Jin was shocked and immediately began to think about how to escape Feng Shen's clutches.
Fortunately, at this time, a man who looked like a manager came out from the Governor's Mansion: "Master Feng, the Governor said that he would ask you to wait in the study as soon as you arrive. He has important matters to discuss with you."
"Damn it." Feng Shen let go of Xi Jin and ordered the boy beside him, "Keep an eye on this bitch. If I can't see her when I come out, you're the only one asking me."
"Yes, sir." The boy responded quickly, pulled Xi Jin over, took a riding whip, and tried to tie Xi Jin's hands.
"Sister Jin, you bad guy, let go of sister Jin." Lan'er tried to stop her, but was kicked to the ground by the servant.
"Lan'er, leave quickly!" Xi Jin said sternly, winking at her again.
Lan'er understood what Xi Jin meant, wiped the tears on her face, nodded at Xi Jin, turned around and ran towards the school ground.
"Little brother, don't worry, I can't run away, why do you bother to tie me up?" Xi Jin said softly.
The boy glanced at Xi Jin and couldn't help but blush, but his men didn't stop.
Seeing that the beauty trap was not working, Xi Jin changed his tactics: "Brother, you can tie me up if you want, but I have the purse in my sleeve that the governor's wife just rewarded me with, which is a bit irritating. I can take it out first and change it." Location?"
Sure enough, when the boy heard that there was a purse in Xi Jin's sleeve, his eyes suddenly lit up!
He pulled Xi Jin into a deserted alley and shouted in a low voice: "Take it out quickly, so as not to hurt your hand."
Xi Jin pretended to fumble in his sleeves for a long time, and when the boy was unprepared, he took out a silver needle and pierced his neck.
The boy felt a soreness in his neck, and fell to the ground limply.
Xi Jin looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he quickly ran in the direction of Lan'er.
Lan'er was the boudoir lady after all. Even though she ran as hard as she could, she still didn't get far.
Xi Jin caught up with her and patted her on the shoulder, startling her.
When she saw that it was Xi Jin, Lan'er burst out crying: "Sister Jin, are you okay?"
Xi Jin quickly covered her mouth: "I'm fine, let's go back to the village!"
When Xijin and Laner ran to the place where the bullock cart was waiting, there were already several women waiting.
Seeing Xi Jin coming, Uncle Shi greeted: "Xie Luo, wife, get in the car quickly, let's go."
"Thank you, uncle." Xi Jin softened his legs and got on the bullock cart.
…
As the bullock cart swayed up the village road and looked at the wild flowers all over the village, Xi Jin felt a lot more at ease.
"Sister Jin." Lan'er also felt the same way, holding Xi Jin's hand tightly, with tears in her eyes, saying nothing.
That day, Xie Luo came back just as the sun was setting. When he came back, Xi Jin was making dinner. Hearing a dog barking outside, Xi Jin hurriedly walked out to take a look.
Seeing Xie Luo holding a dog on his hand, which looked very ferocious, Xi Jin was startled and asked quickly: "Why did you bring a dog back?"
"I don't worry about you being alone at home on weekdays. I keep a dog to guard the house." Xie Luo said, tying the dog to the pillar at the door. "Don't worry, although this dog looks fierce, Deputy General Liang is dedicated to guarding the house." Tamed, very smart.”
Xi Jin looked at Xie Luo, thinking of what happened during the day, his eyes felt sour, and tears flowed down without knowing why.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying, but this dog scared you?" Xie Luo hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.
"Xie Luo..." Xi Jin couldn't help but hugged Xie Luo, and tears flowed down more and more uncontrollably.
"Jin'er." It was rare that Jin'er took the initiative to throw himself into his arms. Xie Luo felt warm in his heart, but he was still a little worried, "Jin'er, what's wrong with you? Let's go in and talk, okay?"
Xi Jin wiped away her tears and raised her head from his arms. She also realized her gaffe and said hurriedly: "I'm fine. Wash your hands. Let's eat. I have something to tell you."
"Okay!" Xie Luo didn't say much. He just washed his hands and helped Xi Jin prepare the meal together.
During the dinner, Xi Jin told Xie Luo what happened today. As he spoke, his eyes turned red: "Xie Luo, will you be okay?"
A trace of depth flashed in Xie Luo's eyes, and then he smiled calmly: "Jin'er, don't be afraid, I'm just a small deputy commander. I can't reach the things above, so I won't be involved."
"really?"
"Of course, I promised you that nothing would happen to me." Xie Luo said, reaching out and stroking Xi Jin's bun.
Seeing that Xijin was a little depressed, Xie Luo changed the topic: "Jin'er, the dog I just brought back doesn't have a name yet, you can give it one!"
"Thank you." Xi Jin blurted out.
"Huh?" Xie Luo raised his eyebrows, "Is this its name?"
"Yes, just call Xie's dog Xie Xie, okay?" Xi Jin looked at Xie Luo with a smile.
Xi Jin thought to herself that she also wanted to thank him for loving and protecting her so much along the way.
After what happened during the day, the moment he saw Xie Luo just now, Xi Jin instantly felt that he had someone to rely on. That feeling was very solid and reassuring!
They have experienced so many things together, and now, Xi Jin is very sure that she wants to stay with him forever...
"Okay, I do what you say, thank you."
