The candlelight on the reverse journey was dim, and the long shadow of the hunchbacked father-in-law was cast down.
Is this Sun Jiucheng?
"Lanyin, it's not polite to keep staring at others." Su Mo stuffed a mouthful of biscuits into Lan Yin's mouth and warned again.
"Brother, why are you chained to your sister all the time? It's so inconvenient to eat." Cui Yuanzao drank tea, his thick eyelashes cast dark shadows under the candlelight, and Lan Yin couldn't see his eyes clearly.
He finally knew everything. She was not Mrs. Yang. What would he do?
"What do you call this brother?"
"My surname is Cui and my courtesy name is Yuanzao."
"Brother Cui, my surname is Su, you can just call me Su Mo." Su Mo took a generous sip of wine, "Brother Cui, would you like some wine?"
"No, I'm not in good health. Brother Su, take care of yourself."
"Young girl like me, you can't let go. Once you let go, you'll run away and you won't be able to catch up."
"Oh? Why are you running? I think Brother Su's upbringing is too strict." Cui Yuanzao filled another glass of wine for Su Mo.
"Her mind is full of..."
"I eloped, and I don't know where my lover is now? Will he miss me?" Lan Yin was afraid that Su Mo would talk nonsense, so she let Cui Yuanzao find out her details, so she just talked nonsense first, and could test Cui Yuanzao's thoughts. .
"Pfft..., what are you talking about?" Su Mo said in shock, but Lan Yin glared at her and realized that she had talked too much.
This Brother Cui is gentle and elegant, making people feel like they are taking a breath of fresh air. He actually talked so much without realizing it.
Cui Yuanzao drank tea, but the corners of his lips raised a little unconsciously, "I think the lady is unique and can elope for love. I believe your lover will not let you down."
"What did Brother Cui say?" Su Mo was shocked again. This gentle man could actually say such words.
Su Mo went to see Lan Yin again, and the dim candlelight couldn't hide her blushing cheeks.
Lan Yin couldn't help but scolded Cui Yuanzao in her heart and kicked Cui Yuanzao lightly.
Cui Yuanzao swayed slightly, smiled, sat up straight again, and continued: "Brother Su, don't be anxious. What I want to tell you is, have you thought clearly? No matter how high the mountains, the dangers, the wind and the rain, you are sure that it will be possible." Go hand in hand with your lover, otherwise you should go home and accept the arrangements of your family."
Su Mo nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Lan Yin was too impulsive and did not consider the consequences, which made the master so worried.
When Lan Yin heard Cui Yuanzao's words, she had another thought. Did he have another deep meaning?
Lan Yin glanced at Cui Yuanzao and said: "I have already thought about it. No matter the mountains are high and the water is high, since I have taken this road, I should continue on and never give up."
"Okay." Cui Yuanzao said with a smile.
"What's so good?" Su Mo complained, "Brother Cui is really causing trouble for me."
"This may not be up to Brother Su."
Before he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew from nowhere. The lanterns swayed, the candles were half-lit, and shadows crisscrossed the room, adding a ghostly atmosphere.
"Brother Cui, what do you mean?" Su Mo pulled out his sword and pointed it at Cui Yuanzao, but found that his hand was trembling, "You poisoned me?"
"It's just drugged. Brother Su will wake up tomorrow."
"You have a beautiful idea." Su Mo took a strong breath and rushed towards Cui Yuanzao, but was tripped by Lan Yin and fell to the ground.
"Brother, I forgot to tell you, this is my lover, he is here to save me." Lan Yin stretched out her tied hands to Cui Yuanzao and motioned for him to help her untie them.
"When did it happen?" Su Mo gasped, covering his chest.
The junior sister he had pampered for fifteen years was snatched away just a few months after she came down from the mountain? Didn't you agree to take revenge? Why is it talking about love?
"Just now, we made a love right under your nose." Lan Yinjiao said with a smile, "Okay, let's go. Senior brother, please rest here slowly."
"You..., you..." Su Mo wanted to spit out the fragrance, but found that he had lost his voice and could only stare angrily.
"Brother Su, you will wake up at midnight tomorrow. Go to sleep well now. Sun Jiucheng, please send Brother Su to his room." Cui Yuanzao counted silently in his heart. After counting to ten, Su Mo finally fell asleep.

"Cui Pingshi, everything has been arranged. The store manager and his wife will take good care of Su Xiashi." Sun Mao came out of the reverse journey carrying the sleeping Guo Jiao on his back.
"Well, next we need to drive all night and try to enter Chang'an City when the morning drum sounds to avoid any complications."
"Cui Pingshi, we only have two horses." Sun Mao didn't want to get involved with a difficult woman like Guo Jiao.
Cui Yuanzao walked up to Sun Mao, and the red lantern light hit his face, making his smile look inexplicably cold, and Sun Mao's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Cui Yuanzao pinched Guo Jiao's mouth and stuffed a pill into her mouth. "Okay, she can sleep all the way to Chang'an City and never wake up."
Sun Mao wiped his cold sweat, Cui Pingshi was so insightful into people's hearts.
"Well, then I'll take the first step." Sun Mao just wanted to leave quickly at this moment. He didn't want to know too many secrets.
"Hahaha, you scared Sun Yucheng." Lan Yin looked at Sun Mao who ran away quickly and couldn't help laughing.
"Oh? I didn't scare you!" Cui Yuanzao was curious about what Lan Yin thought about her giving medicine to Guo Jiao.
"It's not the first time. You've given me medicine before. By the way, your 'soul-locking incense' didn't work well, and I didn't find it until now!" Lan Yin said dissatisfied.
When Cui Yuanzao heard what she said, he simply didn't know how to respond.
Both of these brothers and sisters were too simple and easy to trust others, but they did not condemn his behavior of giving "drugs" to people at will. They seemed to have no clear concept of right and wrong, and seemed to live according to their hearts. How on earth did they get... Cultivated?
"Your name is Su Lanyin?"
"Liu Lanyin." Lan Yin regretted it after she finished speaking. This guy unknowingly tricked her again.
"Lanyin." Cui Yuanzao chewed the name silently, it sounded pretty good.
"What for?" Lan Yin said angrily.
"Let's go." Cui Yuanzao took a step, jumped on the horse, and stretched out his hand to Lan Yin.
Huh, Lan Yin didn't hold his hand, she jumped up and sat in front of Cui Yuanzao.
"I see that your face is pale. You must be suffering from an old problem. It's better for me to handle the horse. You can rest."
Lan Yin took out a small cloth bag from her arms and handed it to Cui Yuanzao, "Here you go."
"What?"
Cui Yuanzao opened the small cloth bag, and there were several pieces of pastry inside.
"You don't need to thank me, it's what you paid. Seeing that you just drank tea and didn't eat anything, I got it for you before leaving so that you wouldn't faint on the way."
Lan Yin had a bad tone, but Cui Yuanzao felt as if a cluster of small sparks had sprouted from her cold body.
The bright moon was in the sky, and the two men were galloping on horseback in the remote countryside. The man hugged the woman's waist.
The night is gentle and the breeze blows on your face, teasing people's thoughts for no reason.
