After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

While eating, Wen Baizhi talked about the current situation in the yard.

"Everyone is arranged very well, and they all know not to run around randomly. Cuizhi takes good care of everyone outside. I now feel more and more that she is very suitable to be the kind of person who leads the overall situation.

I didn't go to Rong Heng's place, but I sent some food to Liu Si Niang. She said she would come to see you tomorrow and tell you everything she knows.

She also asked me to tell you that no matter what the final outcome of Xiaobao is, she will be very grateful to you, at least you gave her hope.

So Zijin, you are a very good person. "

She said so much, but ended up with such an irrelevant conclusion.

"It's strange. In the past three years, almost no one has said that I'm a good person." Si Jiu said with some self-deprecation.

Wen Baizhi certainly knew.

When she was just reborn, Cuizhi knew that she was going to marry Sijiu and had a very bad opinion of him.

Wen Baizhi thought for a moment and said, "Most people in the world like to get to know someone from other people's mouths. They believe whatever others say, but I am not like them. I firmly believe that you have to get to know someone from the heart. Your heart will tell you everything."

The lock on Si Jiu's heart door was slowly broken open by her.

"But many of the rumors about me are not groundless, but true."

This included the persecution of loyal officials. Every time they were punished, the entire family would be executed without leaving a single one alive.

Wen Baizhi looked into his eyes and said, "I know you have your own difficulties and reasons. You are a minister, and the emperor and his subjects are always subject to the emperor. You can't not do what His Majesty says, and even if you don't do it, there will be others to do it. If you don't do it, His Majesty will have more excuses to punish you. Haven't you suffered enough injuries in the past three years?"

Speaking of this, Wen Baizhi began to blame Qi Yan'an.

After all, she, Si Jiu and Qi Yan'an have known each other since childhood.

How could he be so cruel?

Si Jiu either injured his knee or his back.

If I have the chance to meet Qi Yanan, I will definitely avenge Si Jiu.

Si Jiu, who was originally feeling guilty, smiled when he heard her protecting him like that.

"I didn't know you were such a protective person," Si Jiu thought about the words, "such a protective person."

Wen Baizhi was amused by his words: "Protecting your calf? Then you are the calf."

Si Jiu laughed along: "That's literally what it means."

Wen Baizhi said seriously: "I really want to protect you well. It would be best if I could take you to a place where no one knows you and take good care of you. Jinzhou or other states have nothing to do with you and me. The most important thing is that you slowly get healthy."

"A place where no one knows me?" Si Jiu murmured.

Wen Baizhi nodded: "Yes, a place similar to a paradise. There, maybe we don't have the good living conditions we have now. We may have to cook and wash clothes by ourselves, and even have to earn money for a living, but at least there, our hearts are free, right?"

Si Jiu repeated: "The heart is free."

Wen Baizhi deepened this sentence: "The heart is free, even if it is trapped in a cage, it is still free. If the heart is bound, then there will be no real freedom anywhere."

The two of them at this moment did not know that the freedom they were just talking about casually would actually become a reality in the future.

The cage is real, and freedom is real too.

Seeing that Si Jiu stopped talking, Wen Baizhi urged him to eat quickly.

In this way, the two of them ate the meal with different thoughts in mind.

Si Jiu has never eaten much.

But tonight, Wen Baizhi ate less, which was unusual for her.

Si Jiu was a little worried: "What's wrong? Why did you only eat one bowl of rice?"

Wen Baizhi suddenly felt ashamed: "Isn't one bowl of rice too much? Then you can fill the whole bowl."

Si Jiu said: "That's because you ate too little. You used to eat two or three bowls."

Wen Baizhi really wanted to cover Si Jiu's mouth immediately: "Don't you know that there are some sensitive topics that girls can't talk about directly?"

Si Jiu shook his head in confusion.

He has very little contact with women, so naturally he doesn't understand these things.

Wen Baizhi lamented that Si Jiu's transformation plan still had a long way to go.

"Forget it. I won't tell you anymore. Anyway, you just need to know that in the future, don't easily talk about how much I ate in front of me and others, okay?"

Si Jiu nodded obediently: "I understand."

He turned around and said, "But you did eat less today. I'm worried about you."

Wen Baizhi collapsed and cried out, "You are such a blockhead. I told you not to say it anymore, but you are still talking here. People are not always the same. I just ate less today, and I can't say for sure if I eat more tomorrow. Why do you have to keep harping on this issue?"

Seeing that she seemed really angry, Si Jiu hurriedly apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I won't say it next time, I'm sorry, please don't be angry."

Wen Baizhi wasn't really angry, and she couldn't bear to be angry with Si Jiu.

She couldn't control her emotions just now and now she feels a little regretful.

It’s okay for people to have their own temper, but they cannot vent it endlessly on people close to them.

She just thought of her time as Wen Bai because of the free discussion just now.

Many times she thought she would slowly forget her memories of being Wen Bai.

After all, she is Wen Baizhi now.

But she would still remember Wen Bai's unrestrained and free-spirited personality.

Even the final scene before death.

She would think of it.

Plus, she didn't want Si Jiu to think of sad things because of her freedom, so she couldn't control her emotions for a moment.

"It's not your fault, Zijin. You don't have to apologize to me," she explained. "I just couldn't eat. There's no other reason. You don't need to ask me about this issue next time."

Wen Baizhi knew very well that she and Si Jiu still had a lot to work out.

When two people come together, it is never based on a first glance.

More often than not, it's the steady flow of things.

She knows it all.

She is not in a hurry, she can take her time.

When Si Jiu saw that her expression had relaxed, he felt relieved.

"That's good. I won't say it again in the future." He would never say anything or do anything that would make her unhappy.

When Wen Baizhi was about to clean up the dishes, Si Jiu stopped her.

"Just leave it there, I'll clean it up."

Wen Baizhi didn't argue with him and just put down all the things in his hands.

She knew that Si Jiu needed to do something to prove his existence.

She would love for him to do so, too.

So she wouldn't say anything to stop it.

"Put these things in the food box and I'll give them to Cuizhi."

"Okay." Si Jiu also wiped the table clean.

He had done a lot of these rough jobs when he was in the Marquis' Mansion.

However, after becoming this damn governor, he enjoyed being served by others.

But Si Jiu knew that what he missed most was actually the time he was Si Zijin.

Although he was bullied, at least he was intact.

After all, the time that can never be returned is what people miss the most.
