I wish for a long time

"Sir?"

When Ye Jiu opened the door and came in, the room was extremely quiet.

She tentatively called twice, only to find that the old gentleman was sitting by the table in a daze.

She walked over lightly, and the old man didn't realize it until he was close to the table.

"Oh, Jin'er is here."

The old gentleman put down the white silk cloth in his hand, raised his head and smiled.

Ye Jiu lowered his eyebrows and glanced, only to see a sword lying on the table in front of the old gentleman.

Reflecting the candlelight, the blade of the sword was less chilly and more soft.

Ye Jiu suddenly burst out laughing.Where does the softness come from for a weapon that can kill people?

"What is Jin'er laughing at?"

The old gentleman was a little puzzled, and reached for the scabbard, ready to put the sword back into the sheath.

"No... nothing."

Ye Jiu glanced at the silver scabbard with hidden patterns, and was suddenly taken aback.

"Old man, aren't the swords you match with such complicated patterns?"

With a sound of "swipe", the long sword was sheathed.

The old gentleman rubbed the bright or dark silver lines on it with his thumb, and said slowly: "Some swordsmen like to engrave some patterns of their own logos, and some only engrave some ordinary patterns. However, there are also some scabbards that clearly show its origin."

Ye Jiu nodded, "No wonder it looks familiar."

Now the old gentleman was stunned, "Familiar?"

Ye Jiu's mind instantly flashed the unpleasant image of the sword resting on his neck, as well as that cold face, he waved his hands quickly, "It's nothing, nothing."

The old man gave her a suspicious look, and motioned for her to sit over, "Extend your hand."

Ye Jiu stretched out his hand according to his words.

The old man had a consultation for a while, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "As expected of a young man, the recovery is fast. From this point of view, we can start our journey after another three days."

Ye Jiu frowned, "So fast?"

The old gentleman nodded, "There is a letter from the mansion, the north of Yanzhou is not peaceful now, it may take some time for us to pass there."

Ye Jiu asked again: "What's not peaceful?"

"Remember the drought in the Wei River when I said you were born?"

Ye Jiu blinked, and then nodded when he thought that the old man saw him as Jin'er, "I remember."

"That's where it was. This year it's been a cold spring."

Ye Jiu was a little confused, "What?"

The old gentleman patiently explained: "It is much colder than this time in previous years."

"Rice is grown in the south of the Wei River, and wheat and cotton are grown in the north. When the cold spring hits, the rice seedlings in the south will freeze, and the wheat and cotton will rot in the north. When April and May come, the harvest will be greatly affected."

Ye Jiu frowned, "Then what should we do now?"

The old gentleman pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Since I found you, I gambled the life of the whole family, so I don't care about some words."

Ye Jiu didn't speak, looking at him with deep eyes.

Sometimes, knowing too many secrets is not a good thing.

The old gentleman met her gaze, and said in a deep voice, "The emperor has been bedridden for more than a few months, and is no longer able to govern the internal affairs. Now that the court is full of turmoil, his attention has no longer been on this small land of Yanzhou."

Ye Jiu's face turned cold, "So you just let these people live and die?"

The old man paused, and said in a deep voice: "What's more serious is that the banks of the Weihe River have been hit by frost this year, and it is difficult for the people to survive the winter. If the harvest is affected again..."

The old man stopped talking, and Ye Jiu understood, "Are you afraid of repeating the same mistakes?"

The old man nodded slowly.

"But now I don't have an official position, and the badge of the Marquis Mansion can only deter small counties like Yonglin and Lancang. If we want to really transfer the government, it is still far away."

"Then what do we do?"

The old gentleman sighed: "We have to go first and then talk about it."

Ye Jiu pursed his lips, "Then let's set off after I finish shopping."

The old man's eyes were deep, and he nodded slightly, "Thanks for your hard work, Jiner."

Ye Jiu smiled: "The foundation of rooting is for the people. Since this muddy water has been disturbed, we cannot lose our due responsibilities."

The old man was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes, and his lips under the beard were slightly curved.

"Speaking of which, how many people in Lancang County know your identity, Jin'er?"

Ye Jiu thought for a while, "Before you came, only the people in the clinic and the inn knew about it."

The old gentleman thought for a moment, "The county magistrate has seen the token of the Hou Mansion, and it will be troublesome if we trace it in the future."

Ye Jiu frowned, afraid that he would have some terrible idea of ​​silence, he said quickly: "I have a plan."

……

Qi Shaoan leaned on the bed, his right hand was hanging in the air, shaking slightly.

Immediately afterwards, a round thing swung to the left and then to the right.

Suddenly, there was a slight knocking sound at the door, Qi Shaoan listened carefully to the footsteps, then the corners of his lips curled up, and he continued to stare at the pouch in his hand.

"Bah."

An equally round purple pouch collided with the red one in his hand, and through inertia, it was suddenly entangled.

Qi Shaoan looked along that hand, Ye Jiu was looking at him with frowned eyebrows and a smile.

"Miss me?" she said with her lips parted.

Qi Shaoan shifted his gaze to the side, "No."

Ye Jiu was not annoyed when he heard this, hooked the purple rope in his hand with his little finger, and pouted, "See, I have answered for you with the knot of one heart."

Qi Shao'an looked down, and saw two pouches clenched tightly together, red and purple, indescribably enchanting.

She choked immediately, her eyes dodged a little, "What does it know?"

Ye Jiu took the red pouch from her hand and put it next to the pillow together, "Okay, okay, it doesn't understand anything."

She turned her head to look at Qi Shao'an again, raised her lips and smiled lightly, "It's fine as long as I understand."

Immediately afterwards, Ye Jiu put one hand on her side, leaned forward, and said softly, "I miss you."

Qi Shao'an felt that it was not Ye Jiu who jumped at him, but a burning sense of shame.

In other words, it is a walking kit of dirty words.

She even felt for a moment that the embroidered pouch was not for carrying, but for blocking her mouth.

To avoid making myself feel like I have passed through the flames every time, and I am roasted red.

"Shao'er, we are about to set off."

Qi Shaoan got out of his own thinking, blinked in surprise, "Why are you so nervous?"

She subconsciously looked at Ye Jiu's back, "Then your injury..."

Seeing this, Ye Jiu straightened his body and stretched his arms, "It's much better, don't worry, it's fine... hiss."

"Who allowed you to move around!"

Qi Shao'an was startled, quickly pulled down her arm, raised her hand and patted it, and said in a bad tone, "How old is she, how can you still be so ignorant."

Ye Jiu shrunk his neck and held Qi Shaoan's palm, "Okay, okay, I'll just stay still."

Hearing this, Qi Shaoan still frowned, patted the bed inside, "You go inside today."

Ye Jiu was puzzled: "Ah, what's the difference?"

Qi Shaoan reached out and pulled off her belt, folded it aside and put it away, "I'm afraid a disobedient child will fall in the middle of the night."

Ye Jiu: "..."

Until Ye Jiu lay on the side of the bed with a head full of question marks, and Qi Shaoan quickly got into her arms with a calm face, she seemed to understand Qi Shaoan's intention.

I was injured on my left shoulder blade, so I could lie on my side and face outwards, so that I could not press the wound, but I could also hug the little girl.

So thoughtful.

Ye Jiu hugged her tightly, and her smile grew stronger. Rubbing Qi Shaoan's hair, she suddenly asked:

"Shao'er."

Qi Shaoan stretched out his arms around Ye Jiu's waist, and responded shallowly, "Yeah."

"Do you have any extra dresses?"

……

"Brother-in-law Ye, are you leaving tomorrow?"

Jiang Peiling looked at Ye Jiu who was gesturing towards him with a cloak, and finally asked.

"Yeah, let's go tomorrow morning. Miss Jiang, can you see if the thickness is enough to prevent wind?"

Jiang Peiling looked down at the "cloak" that was as thick as a quilt in front of him, and was speechless for a while.

The owner of the clothing store clenched his fists and said with a flattering smile: "Your...Young master, this is the thickest piece in the shop, and there is really no thicker one."

"Brother-in-law Ye, I didn't say that, although Sister Shao'an's body is a little weaker, it's not like this. How about you wrap the child?"

However, Ye Jiu didn't listen to Jiang Peiling's words at all. She balled up the cloak in her hand contentedly, and pushed it towards the counter, "This is packed."

The boss quickly responded, "Okay."

Jiang Peiling rolled his eyes and let out a breath, his hair fluttering.

Ye Jiu turned around and looked at the dresses hanging on the pole, and pointed to a few of them, "These ones, those of her size, should also be wrapped."

She pointed to Jiang Peiling who was crossing her arms.

The boss nodded again and again, laughing so hard that his back molars were exposed.

Jiang Peiling said helplessly: "Brother, we have already passed winter, why are you still buying these winter clothes?"

Ye Jiu propped his elbows on the counter, shaking his index finger, "No, no, it's cold in spring, and there's still a cold wave in the north, so these winter clothes are absolutely indispensable."

"Speaking of which, I still want to buy a few more Tang Pozi for the road."

Jiang Peiling sighed old-fashionedly and closed his mouth.

She'd better not have someone she likes, it's really scary.

"Speaking of which, what happened to that turtle grandson of the Hu family?"

Ye Jiu looked around and asked casually.

Seeing that the boss was not there, Jiang Peiling lowered his voice and replied, "Well, it's exactly right."

"Abandoned?"

"Quite thorough."

Ye Jiu was a little surprised, "The Hu family didn't make trouble?"

Jiang Peiling raised his brows: "Of course we have to make trouble, but the people in the yamen blocked it back, and even a few servants were arrested and imprisoned for picking quarrels and provoking trouble."

Ye Jiu thought about it for a while, then smiled: "It seems that this parent official is very good at life."

Jiang Peiling was a little puzzled, "It's strange to say that the Hu family seems to have gone back to their nests as if this hadn't happened."

Ye Jiu kept smiling and shrugged, "Hey, who knows, maybe the county magistrate's conscience found out."

"My lord, your clothes."

At this time, the boss came out from behind carrying the package and handed it to Ye Jiu.

Ye Jiu took it and pointed to a light blue dress on the wall, "This one should be one size bigger."

The boss wiped his sweat secretly, and went back to the back hall to get it.

Jiang Peiling snorted, "What are you doing with the one that's one size bigger?"

Ye Jiu pursed his lips and smiled, the corners of his eyebrows lightly raised:

"you guess."

The author has something to say: There are thousands of roads, and safety comes first.

Changed it to crying, I want to confess to you in the future, I can only make waves, hey, Ah Yixi is dumbfounded...

The storm wept.
