It stopped raining for a while, and I originally thought it would clear up, but thunder started to blow in the middle of the night. After lightning and thunder outside the window for a while, heavy rain came.
"You shouldn't be afraid of Mom sleeping alone in the front yard, right?" Mrs. Sun looked at the streaks of green snake-like lightning that struck out of the window from time to time, and couldn't help but push Yang Huazhong beside her.
Yang Huazhong turned over and opened his eyes.
"No, our house is not leaking. Mom is fine, just go to sleep."
…
Across the wall from the Luo family, a figure knocked on Yang Ruoqing's door in the middle of the night.
There is no doubt that it must be Liu Xueyun.
When Yang Ruoqing put on her coat and went to open the door, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
He and I are not only superiors and subordinates, but also Bole and Maxima, brothers of the opposite sex, and even best partners.
If this kind of behavior of knocking on the door in the middle of the night happens to a random man and woman outside, I don't know how many versions of the 'story' will evolve.
But when it comes to himself and Liu Xueyun, it's a common occurrence.
And precisely because the two of them were open-minded, they didn't have to avoid anything.
Of course, when Liu Xueyun came over in the middle of the night, he would do so quietly and would not alert anyone else. Not even the Luo family knew about it.
After Liu Xueyun knocked on the door, he returned to the yard again, and the heavy rain washed away his bamboo hat and raincoat.
Shocking lightning flashed across the head one after another, and the face under the bamboo hat was cold and determined.
"How do I usually teach you? Don't stand under the big tree when there is thunder and lightning, and hurry into the house to talk."
Yang Ruoqing said hello to the yard, yawned and turned back to the house.
Liu Xueyun hesitated for a moment, but still followed her through the door.
He stood outside, reporting the situation to Yang Ruoqing in the inner room through a jade curtain.
"...It's raining heavily tonight, but the chamber pot man went into the mountain overnight with a shovel and a raincoat."
Yang Ruoqing's voice immediately sounded in the inner room: "Spade and coir raincoat? He was wearing a coir raincoat and had a coir raincoat. It seems that his hiding place is in the mountains."
Liu Xueyun nodded, "What should we do next?"
There was no sound from her in the room for the moment, only the trickling sound of the teapot being poured.
After a while, Yang Ruoqing's voice came again: "Of course, we have to wait and follow the clues to find the place where he is hiding people. Even if everyone gets the stolen goods, don't take action immediately. After he leaves, rescue the trapped hostages and transfer them to A safe place.”
"What if he took the hostages with him when he left? Should we take action to seize the hostages?" Liu Xueyun asked again.
Yang Ruoqing shook her head, "Still don't move, let him take him away, watch him and control the new place where the hostages are moved, and wait until he leaves, then talk about the safe transfer of the hostages."
Liu Xueyun was a little confused, "Everyone gets the stolen goods, why not take it immediately?"
At this time, Yang Ruoqing moved towards the curtain. She opened the curtain with her delicate and white hands, revealing a delicate face without makeup. There was still a bit of lazy sleepiness in her eyes. She smiled as gracefully as a water lily. The fragrance blooms.
Liu Xueyun just raised his eyes when he heard the movement, and his eyes couldn't help but glazed over.
Then he quickly lowered his head and stared at the toes of his shoes.
Don't look at anything inappropriate, the other person is his savior, he has the kindness to meet her, and he is also the cousin of the third girl. Liu Xueyun took a deep breath, eliminated the distracting thoughts in his heart, and once again had a stern look and an open mind.
"The Cunning Rabbit has three burrows. It's hard for our people to get an idea of how many geniuses are hiding there. Who knows how many dens the chamber pot man has and how many women he has hidden?"
If you catch one of the dens and rush to arrest people, wouldn't it be a warning?
Liu Xueyun frowned and thought for a moment, and found that it made sense.
"But the problem is, we wait until he leaves and then move the hostages away. When he comes back again to check and see no hostages, we still alert him." He expressed his worries again.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and shook her head, "We can make traces of the hostage's escape. Even if he is suspicious, he is still half-believing."
Liu Xueyun nodded, "Okay, then I'll tell you to go down and say goodbye."
He turned around to leave, but Yang Ruoqing called out to him: "Wait a minute."
"Sister, do you have any other instructions?"
A bowl of hot red date and wolfberry tea was handed to him: "Here, drink this."
Liu Xueyun glanced at the wolfberries and red dates floating in the bowl, and his face moved slightly, "No, I'm not thirsty."
Yang Ruoqing shook her head: "Hey, this is not to quench your thirst, it is to keep you warm and ward off the cold. It's raining so hard, you must be wet. Drink it quickly!"
Liu Xueyun glanced at her again, and behind the steam rising from the tea bowl was her truly concerned gaze.
"Thank you for your concern, sister, but I will be disrespectful."
He put the saber held in his right hand on the ground, took the bowl with both hands, raised his head and drank it all.
Yang Ruoqing looked at him drinking like a buffalo and wanted to laugh.
Fortunately, the red dates were cored and sliced, and had already softened after being soaked in water. Otherwise, such a big red date with such a hard core would not have choked him to death.
Liu Xueyun drank it all in one gulp, put down the bowl, turned around and disappeared again into the dark rain curtain.
Yang Ruoqing leaned against the doorframe, staring at the thunderstorm outside.
Liu Xueyun was her right-hand man when he was in the capital. He served the emperor with her, made meritorious deeds, and received rewards.
So when I returned to my hometown of Changle County, I took a job as a sinecure in the government office and basically stayed with her as an errand most of the time as before.
Last time she got engaged to the third girl, she asked him about his future plans. He was going to start a family and start a business soon. Would he like to do a real job, or would he continue to hold a false position and enjoy himself?
At that time, Liu Xueyun thought about it seriously and the answer he gave was to remain the same and continue to work for her.
Yang Ruoqing had no idea. She knew that he was a person who would definitely do something if he was sure about it.
If you are determined to repay her kindness and serve her, you will stick to it till the end.
That's all, let's just do this for now, no matter what we do, as long as he feels happy and fulfilled.
However, when he really gets married to San Yatou, or if San Yatou becomes pregnant and gives birth to a child, he will definitely be given a long vacation so that he can take care of his family.
…
Early in the morning, the rain stopped, and Liu Xueyun came to the backyard again to report to Yang Ruoqing what happened last night.
"As my sister expected, that chamber pot guy is really cunning and hateful. He found two caves in the back mountain, and women were imprisoned in both caves."
"It rained too much last night. He may have been worried that the rain would pour into the cave and drown the two women, so he went into the mountain with a shovel to repair the entrance of the cave overnight."
"After he left, we entered the two caves and successfully rescued the two women imprisoned inside. Unfortunately, there was no Mo family."
