Before she finished speaking, her body suddenly rose into the air, and Xue Yu was so frightened that she suddenly interrupted her thoughts.
The man picked her up by the waist, and a familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded above her head, "You are heavy and heavy now, I will carry you to your room to rest."
Xue Yu said nothing more.
In order not to fall, his slender arms unconsciously wrapped around Wei Jingchen's neck.
Wei Jingchen glanced down. The candlelight flickered slightly. The woman lowered her eyelids and had thick black eyelashes, leaning against him softly and obediently.
The tip of my heart suddenly felt itchy for no reason.
Wei Jingchen put Xue Yu on the bed, tucked her into bed, and stared at the side next to her.
Empty.
"Husband, why don't you come up?" Xue Yu was a little confused when she saw that the man was still not getting on the bed.
Wei Jingchen was silent for a moment. He was now disguised as Xue Yu's husband, so it was okay for him to sleep beside her.
After convincing himself, Wei Jingchen got on the bed without hesitation.
It's dawn all night.
When Xue Yu woke up, there was no one around her.
After washing up and leaving the house, Xue Yu didn't see Jiang Xuze in the yard and was a little confused.
Until noon, Jiang Xuze was nowhere to be seen.
Suddenly, there was a steady sound of footsteps in her ears. Xue Yu followed the sound and looked over. Under the sun, the man's figure was like a bamboo, and his whole body was so sharp that it was hard to ignore.
"Master Wei."
Xue Yu had no idea about the true face of the person in front of her, so she saluted him with a smile.
"Can you see your husband? I haven't seen him this morning."
Wei Jingchen stared at her face as bright as the moon, full of worry about Jiang Xuze.
My heart felt like it was being pinched by someone, and there was a slight flash of pain.
There was a coldness in his eyes, and he said word by word, "Just now, Dr. Jiang told Mr. Wei that he was going up the mountain to collect medicine."
Xue Yu had no doubts and nodded. After all, Jiang Xuze did have the habit of going up the mountain to collect herbs.
Time flew by.
Night gradually enveloped Xiaohe Village, and Xue Yu frowned more and more. She would stand at the door of the courtyard from time to time, as if waiting for someone.
Wei Jingchen stood under the eaves, his eyes falling on the delicate and thin figure in front of the courtyard, his eyes filled with coldness.
Are you so worried about Jiang Xuze?
It's a pity that he is already dead!
Until the night falls, the darkness is endless.
The evening breeze blew, and Xue Yu couldn't help shivering. She hugged her clothes tightly, but she still stood there.
Wei Jingchen felt an inexplicable anger rising in his heart, and with a dark fire burning in his eyes, he strode over.
The tone was questioning.
"Are you that worried about him?"
Xue Yu was stunned for a moment and tilted her chin slightly, "He is my husband, so naturally I am worried."
Wei Jingchen realized that his mood was unstable and suddenly calmed down.
"What Wei means is that if you stand outside like this, even if you don't think about your own body, you should think about your children."
Xue Yu thought about how hard it was for her to save the bones and flesh in her abdomen. She hesitated for a while and then entered the house.
But he was still restless.
Jiang Xuze has never been in danger when going up the mountain to collect herbs, and he is well aware of the dangers of going deep into the woods.
And when the sun goes down, he won't stay on the mountain any longer.
Therefore, she did not think that her husband was in the mountains, but he might have gone to see a doctor.
Or maybe he went to the Jiang family.
But she looks like this, is blind, and is still pregnant. It would be too dangerous to look for her rashly.
Xue Yu's mind suddenly thought of the man's tall figure. After thinking about it, she walked towards the guest room with a wooden stick in hand.
guest room.
Yun Jian reported in a low voice the situation of the disaster relief work these days.
"Master Wei has followed His Highness's instructions, and the remaining disaster relief money has been collected quickly. Now he has sent people to buy rice everywhere. However, for some reason, those rice merchants suddenly raised their prices. Originally, a bucket of rice cost thirteen taels. Now it has doubled four to five times..."
Wei Jingchen sat upright, tapping his slender jade fingers on the table, and snorted coldly.
"It seems that someone in the capital has done some tricks. Yun Jian, you tell Wei Chun to reveal Gu's identity directly. If that still doesn't work, kill him directly."
The words were full of strong murderous intent, biting and cold.
Yun Jian was about to say something when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the door, "Your Highness, Mrs. Jiang is here."
Wei Jingchen raised his eyebrows. It was rare for Xue Yu to take the initiative to look for him.
A clear voice came from outside the door, "Mr. Wei, can you take a rest?"
Wei Jingchen stepped forward and opened the door, his eyes falling on that charming face.
"It's dark now. I wonder what Mrs. Jiang has to do with Mr. Wei?"
The man's voice was magnetic and clear, and in Xue Yu's ears, there was an inexplicable hint of ambiguity.
It seemed as if she was looking for Mr. Wei to avoid doing anything cowardly that her husband was going to do.
Thinking of this, Xue Yu's cheeks couldn't help but turn red, her eyes were moist and misty, and she bit her lips lightly.
"Mr. Wei, my husband has not returned for a long time. My eyesight is not good, so it is inconvenient to look for him. Could you please go to the Jiang family to look for him?"
The words are extremely sincere and full of prayers, making people feel pity for them.
Wei Jingchen's eyes were cold, and the corners of his lips were twitching, without the slightest hint of a smile.
"Can."
Xue Yu couldn't see that the man's face was like frost, and his eyes were dark, filled with traces of anger.
All I know is that he agreed.
A feeling of joy suddenly rose in her heart, and Xue Yu said with a smile on her lips, "Thank you, Mr. Wei. I will trouble you next."
Looking at Xue Yu's leaving figure, Wei Jingchen's whole body became more and more indifferent and sharp, making it almost difficult to look at him.
Yun Jian didn't dare to stay any longer and hurriedly said goodbye.
An angry Highness is really scary.
Fortunately, Mrs. Jiang's eyesight is not good, otherwise she would have been shocked.
After a long while, Wei Jingchen took out the porcelain bottle and poured out a voice-changing pill.
Pills can change the voice and even imitate other people's voices, but there is a drawback: the effect is only half a day.
He didn't plan on using it again.
But when he thought that Xue Yu was only thinking about her husband, it was like a fire was burning in his heart, burning his internal organs.
Swallowed it without hesitation.
*
Xue Yu sat on the edge of the bed, holding the porcelain cup carefully with her fingers, her brows slightly furrowed all the time, sitting as if on pins and needles.
After she came back from the guest room, she suddenly regretted asking Wei Jingchen for help in finding her husband.
She didn't know why.
But now that the words have been said, naturally they cannot take them back.
At this time, there was a gentle movement outside the door, and Xue Yu stood up quickly.
Before taking a few steps, a voice sounded from the opposite side, with a familiar and soft voice, "I'm sorry."
When Xue Yu heard her husband's voice, she burst into tears from the corners of her eyes, "Why did you come back so late? Do you know how worried I am about you?"
His hands couldn't help but wrap around the man's waist.
Wei Jingchen's back suddenly stiffened for a moment, but soon returned to normal, and he placed his big palm on the woman's waist.
"I forgot the time when gathering medicine." The man's tone was a little stiff.
