Liu Hanyan didn't know that this guy was taking advantage of him.
She said with a cold face: "Xiao Yifeng! Show some respect to me, I am your uncle!"
Xiao Yifeng looked confused and said, "I have always respected my uncle."
Liu Hanyan gritted her teeth and said, "Stop pretending to be stupid and bewildered. If you dare to do anything deviant, you will never get my consent for your marriage to Mo'er."
Xiao Yifeng nodded repeatedly, secretly thinking that I'm not afraid, I can't ask for more.
So next, he shamelessly flattered Liu Hanyan and treated her with subtle intimacy.
This left Liu Hanyan speechless. Is this guy's nature to flirt with women?
Now even my junior uncle won’t let him go, right?
She was holding her breath and walked angrily on the street, Xiao Yifeng followed closely behind her.
Because it was snowing, many children were playing in the street, while adults followed behind them reproachfully.
These children are looking forward to the heavy snowfall and being able to make snowballs.
Xiao Yifeng only hopes that the snow can be as small as possible, and it is best to disappear completely and never fall again.
As the sky darkened, the two found an inn in the city and planned to stay overnight.
However, the innkeeper told me that the rooms were full and there was not even one room left. Even if the two of them wanted to squeeze in, they wouldn't have a chance.
Due to the sudden snowfall today, merchants whose routes were blocked by the wind and snow went to the city to take shelter, and the inn was already full.
This foreign town is sparsely populated and there are no other inns in the city, which means that the two of them will be homeless tonight.
Liu Hanyan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and Xiao Yifeng was thinking about finding a house by some means.
The two of them walked out of the inn and took a walk in this peaceful city.
As night falls, the lights in the city light up one after another, which is warm and heart-warming.
There were voices everywhere calling the children home for dinner with local accents, and the voices of children reluctantly bidding farewell to their companions.
Various voices sounded from every house, including scolding playful children, tender care for husbands, and parents complaining about shortcomings.
Standing in his hometown, looking at the lights all over the city, Liu Hanyan stood in the wind and snow and felt a deep loneliness for the first time in a long time.
There are warm lights all over the city, but none of them belong to her. She is like a ghost left behind after hundreds of years.
Liu Hanyan tightened her clothes and said softly: "Since there is no inn, let's go."
Xiao Yifeng was keenly aware of the loss in her eyes, and suddenly reached out to hold her hand.
Liu Hanyan looked at him in surprise, but saw him smiling at her and saying, "Follow me."
Xiao Yifeng couldn't help but pull her in one direction.
Liu Hanyan didn't know what he wanted to do, so she could only follow him forward.
Xiao Yifeng took her left and right to Liu Hanyan's ancestral home.
He stepped forward and knocked gently on the door of the house.
"What do you want to do?" Liu Hanyan asked doubtfully.
"You'll find out later." Xiao Yifeng smiled.
Soon the door of the house was opened, and a man in a bookish long gown opened a door and asked: "Who are you?"
Xiao Yifeng smiled politely and said: "Hello, we are a couple who have come all the way to find our ancestors. The inn in the city is full."
"But it's very windy and snowy outside, and my wife is not in good health, so I want to make it easier and borrow a place to stay for one night. I can give you some money."
Hearing the familiar address of a lady, Liu Hanyan forgot that he was holding her hand and stared at him blankly.
The bookish man looked at Xiao Yifeng and the two carefully, then opened the door.
He smiled and said: "We are all guests who have come from afar. What are we talking about? It's very windy and snowy outside. Please come in quickly."
Xiao Yifeng thanked Liu Hanyan, and then the two of them walked into the mansion.
Inside the house, bowls and chopsticks and hot food were placed on the dining table, and a small stove was burning next to it.
A young woman in her thirties was sitting at the dinner table. She stood up and asked, "Husband, are you having a visitor?"
The man in the long robe smiled and said: "Yes, guests coming from afar, please bring us two pairs of bowls and chopsticks."
The young woman responded when she heard the words, and said with an apologetic smile: "I am not physically able to meet you from afar. I hope you will forgive me."
Only then did the two of them realize that the young woman's belly was slightly bulging, and she was obviously pregnant.
Xiao Yifeng quickly shook his head and said: "We have already eaten, no need."
The man in the long gown smiled and said, "It's okay, the weather is very cold, so you can drink some hot soup."
The young woman also smiled tenderly and went to the back hall to find dishes and chopsticks.
Soon, the young woman found bowls and chopsticks, and warmly invited Liu Hanyan and the two of them to sit down.
She served a bowl of hot soup to each of them and told them to drink some to warm themselves up.
Xiao Yifeng each held a bowl of hot soup and took a sip, feeling that the chill in his body was dispelled.
Although Liu Hanyan was a little embarrassed, he had to say that the loneliness in his heart had indeed weakened.
The man in the long robe smiled and said, "Liu Yuanzong, what do you call me?"
Xiao Yifeng cupped her hands and said, "My lord, Xiao Yifeng, this is my wife. I'm really sorry for disturbing you today."
"Brother Xiao, you're welcome. It snowed heavily today. It's normal that we can't find a place to stay in this small place." Liu Yuanzong said with a smile.
"If it weren't for Brother Liu, my wife and I wouldn't know where to find a place to stay." Xiao Yifeng said with emotion.
"Brother Xiao loves your wife so much, and it turns out that she is not a treacherous and evil person, so I dare to let you in." Liu Yuanzong said with a smile.
"So I have a place to stay thanks to my wife, hahaha." Xiao Yifeng said with a smile.
Liu Yuanzong and his wife both smiled slightly, obviously they had a great impression of Xiao Yifeng, a man who was so polite and loved his wife.
Liu Yuanzong suddenly stood up and went to take down a jug of wine from the shelf nearby, and said with a smile: "My husband and I have lived here for a long time, and it is rare for guests to come."
"Brother Xiao, are you interested in having a drink with me to warm yourself up? But my wife is pregnant, so I can't drink too much."
Xiao Yifeng nodded with a smile and said: "Brother Liu invites you kindly, how can you not accept the courtesy? Just have a drink."
Liu Yuanzong poured a glass for Xiao Yifeng. The aroma of the wine was fragrant and intoxicating.
Xiao Yifeng praised: "The aroma of this wine is fragrant. The aroma is strong but not strong. Instead, it has a sweet taste. You will get drunk before you drink it."
Liu Yuanzong was quite proud that someone appreciated his wine, so he clinked a glass with Xiao Yifeng and took a sip.
Xiao Yifeng found that the wine was indeed not strong. It seemed to be some kind of fruit wine and seemed to have health-preserving effects.
Mrs. Liu covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Young Master Xiao seems to be quite to your husband's taste. He can easily be reluctant to part with this jar of wine."
Xiao Yifeng burst out laughing and said, "With these words from Mrs. Sister-in-law, it's worth having another drink."
Liu Yuanzong smiled and said, "Master Xiao, are you trying to trick me into drinking?"
Even so, he generously poured another glass for Xiao Yifeng.
