Suddenly, someone approached her. Feng Ning looked back and saw that it was the swordsman elder brother, she smiled: "Master, why are you here?"
The swordsman sat next to her from a distance: "This is not a safe place."
Feng Ning hugged his knees and looked at him: "Master, you are such a good person. I'm fine, you saw it just now, bad people can't bully me."
The swordsman asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I heard from others that something happened to me here, I'll take a look." Feng Ning said honestly, for some reason, she felt that the swordsman was very compatible with her, and she didn't feel awkward talking to him.
Perhaps it was because she had someone to accompany her, Feng Ning felt refreshed, she jumped up, and walked down the river. The swordsman also stood up and followed her. Feng Ning put his hands behind his back and walked all the way to watch.
The swordsman asked her softly, "What are you looking for?"
Feng Ning replied, "Find myself." This thoughtless answer didn't even provoke the swordsman's questioning. Feng Ning thought to himself, this is really good. She needs someone to accompany her, but she doesn't need someone to get to the bottom of it.
When he walked to a place, there was a forest on the bank, and the bank was very low. Feng Ning was a little scared when he looked at the river, but he still squatted on the bank and looked at it. Lie on the shore.
The grass was green and the soil was damp, very similar to the smell she had smelled when she woke up that day. At this time, the sky was already white, and the moon and stars were about to disappear. Feng Ning looked up at the sky, and suddenly lay on the grass. She looked at the faint moon, closed her eyes, opened them again, and closed them again.
She lay down for a long time, until the sky was fully lit, her mind was blank, except for the initial feeling of struggling in the darkness and rapids that left her with fear, she didn't think of anything else.
The swordsman didn't speak, just watched her quietly.
The more Feng Ning lay, the sadder she became. She didn't remember anything, what should I do
No one likes her, no one gets close to her. No kind relatives, no loving husband, nothing!
She doesn't like Long Mansion, she doesn't want to go back, but what can she do? She doesn't even know what kind of person she is, where else can she go? She looked at the sky like this, feeling aggrieved and helpless.
Feng Ning sat up, rubbed his sore eyes, got up and walked towards the city with his head down. The swordsman quietly followed behind her.
Feng Ning sank in his sadness and didn't speak to him. The two of them entered the city gate one after the other.
The defending soldier who had spoken to Feng Ning before saw from a distance that she had actually returned, and was covered in mud. Her sad look startled him. He stammered and asked, "Gu, girl, what's the matter with you? Could it be that your sister... can't wait for more than an hour?"
Feng Ning shook her head, her sad expression was obvious, the soldier thought that something really happened, and he couldn't regret it: "Oh, girl, I'm really sorry, I knew this earlier, and I tried my best to beg for you, I thought ...you, your condolences... don't blame me, I really didn't know it would be like this..."
Feng Ning felt guilty for his reaction. She waved her hands again and again: "Brother Bing, it's not like that, it's my fault. I lied to get out of the city. Don't blame me." She said, rubbing sadly. Eye: "It's not that my sister is sick, it's me. I don't know what to do. If I can't find it, I will definitely be scolded when I get home. Brother Bing, it's my fault, I shouldn't lie to you, really , don't blame me."
The soldier was surprised and scratched his head. He didn't understand what she meant. She was sick and couldn't be found. She was scolded again. It was messy and disorganized. He couldn't say anything, so he just waved his hand: "I don't blame you, I don't blame you, look at what you've done, be careful not to catch a cold, go home quickly, don't be afraid of being scolded, family is still family, hurry up go back."
family? This made Feng Ning even more sad. She rubbed her eyes again and said, "Brother Bing, you are such a good person." The brother Bing waved at her again, and the two of them said goodbye.
Feng Ning lowered his head and walked on the street market one step at a time, looking at the unfamiliar street scene, the shops that had no impression of him, and sighed in his heart. The swordsman elder brother was still following her, she walked and walked, suddenly turned around and said to him, "Brother, I am so sad."
"Ah?" The swordsman's expression was somewhat defensive. Why is it not "hero", but changed to "big brother"? Also, when you are sad, you are sad, how can you talk to a man you don't know indiscriminately.
Feng Ning pretended not to see his expression, and added, "When I'm sad, I get hungry. I'm sad when the city gate opens in the middle of the night, so I've been hungry since then."
The swordsman made another "Ah" sound, looking even more surprised.
Feng Ning said calmly, "But I ran out of the house secretly, I have no money, and I still have a long way to go, I'm so hungry that I can't go back, would you lend me money for breakfast? I'll go home, and I'll pay you the money back."
This time, the swordsman didn't "ah", but his mouth was wide open, and he looked at her dumbfounded. He obviously didn't expect to be in a bad mood to pull out this pile.
Feng Ning blinked and looked at him innocently. For her, eating when she is hungry is quite a matter of righteousness.
The swordsman quickly restrained his expression, nodded and said, "Okay."
Feng Ning opened her face with a smile, her eyes widened, and her hand pointed to the breakfast stall in front of her: "Then let's go." She only opened her mouth after seeing the target.
When the two came to the booth, Feng Ning's stomach was already grumbling so badly that the swordsman on the side looked sideways. Feng Ning gave him a look of "Look, I'm not lying", the swordsman coughed twice, and didn't turn his head to hold back his laughter.
The breakfast stall was on the side of the road, with only two small tables, and the things they sold were relatively simple, including wontons, rice porridge, biscuits, and steamed buns. Feng Ning wonton rice porridge each comes with a bowl, then two sesame cakes and a basket of steamed buns. After she ordered it, she asked the swordsman, "Brother, what do you eat?"
The swordsman was surprised: "I didn't order it just now?"
"That's what I want to eat." Feng Ning calmly blinked at the swordsman's surprised face, and patiently asked again, "Brother, what do you want to eat?"
The swordsman also blinked at her and said slowly, "One bowl of wontons, two buns will do."
Feng Ning turned his head to the aunt who was holding the stall and said, "Ma'am, add another bowl of wontons and two steamed buns." At the end, he added, "My eldest brother has a small appetite."
The swordsman turned his head and pretended to look away, his slightly shaking shoulders betrayed his smile. Feng Ning didn't care, found an empty seat at the small table, and sat down honestly.
Breakfast was served quickly, and Feng Ning smiled happily. While eating, she said to the swordsman: "Brother, everything is satisfied, it is good to have enough to eat." She was stunned when she finished speaking: "Hey, who said this to me?"
The swordsman looked at her and asked, "Don't you remember?"
Feng Ning shook her head: "I'm sick and I don't remember anything. But I remember that eldest brother is a good person, and I also remember that I owe you money. I will definitely pay it back." The early aunt said loudly: "Aunt, the food you cook is really delicious."
She complimented her in words, and in her food, it fully demonstrated that this breakfast was really delicious. A few passers-by who passed by couldn't help but stopped to buy some. The breakfast stall aunt was very happy. She wrapped two marinated eggs in lotus leaves and came over and said, "Girl, aunt invites you to eat eggs. After wrapping it, you can take it back to eat, it won't break."
Feng Ning smiled brightly, thanked him, and winked triumphantly at the swordsman. After he was full, the swordsman went to pay the bill and returned to the small table, Feng Ning said in a low voice, "Brother, give the egg money to the aunt as well. She's worked so hard that her hands are broken, and the child who helps is so old. Small, the two of them are dressed in shabby clothes, they must be from a poor family, and they can't take advantage of her."
The swordsman also imitated her serious expression and lowered his voice: "I want to give it, she doesn't want it."
Feng Ning's voice was lower, like a thief: "Then let it go secretly, and she will see it when she comes to collect the bowl." The swordsman glanced at the aunt, nodded, and acted according to the words.
The two just walked away when they heard the aunt call: "Girl..."
Feng Ning looked back, but it was the aunt who found those copper plates and raised her hand to call her. Feng Ning hurriedly dragged the swordsman away, ran away, and couldn't see it again, he laughed loudly.
She jumped up and down happily, and just took a few steps, the swordsman grabbed her sleeve: "Didn't you go home? Why did you go to the city gate again?"
Feng Ning was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "Oh, that's too bad. Forgot to buy breakfast."
The swordsman was startled and his voice became louder: "Then what did you eat just now?" Her problem of not remembering anything, wouldn't it be so serious, right
"No, no. I was thinking, the Chengmen soldier is working so hard, he must not have eaten breakfast. The aunt still has several cages of steamed buns, you can buy them for him to eat. But I was too happy to eat just now, Forget about it." Feng Ning looked at the swordsman eagerly: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely pay back the money, so you can buy me buns again, okay?"
"It's not good." The swordsman brother replied very simply: "I left so sneakily just now, and it's a shame to go back again. I'll give you the money and you can go by yourself."
"No, I'm thin-skinned, I'm embarrassed to go back."
"Am I thick-skinned?"
"It's definitely thicker than me." Feng Ning smirked and smiled: "I mean, eldest brother, you can see that you have a lot of connections and a lot of knowledge. There must be a lot of things in this scripture. Going back and buying buns, you will definitely do better than me. , you go." She put her palms together and begged sincerely: "Go, go, I owe you a favor, I will definitely pay it back."
The swordsman elder brother's expression became loose, Feng Ning seized the opportunity and pushed him back: "Go, go, it's all up to you, you are a good person. The aunt and the little grandson will close the stall and go home to rest early, the soldier will be full. It's all up to you to guard the city gate with a good stomach." She said how important it was to buy buns, and the swordsman brother was finally forced back to the early stall by her helpless.
Feng Ning hid in a corner and watched the swordsman elder brother go back to buy buns with an embarrassed expression. The aunt really pushed and shoved to ask for less money. Feng Ning felt that she saw the swordsman eldest brother blushing, and then it seemed that he couldn't talk to each other, he grabbed the buns, left the money and ran away quickly.
"Young Master, Young Master..." The aunt called the swordsman elder brother. Feng Ning couldn't help but burst into laughter. The swordsman brother passed by and pulled her out and ran away together. He ran away and blamed her: "Laughing! Still laughing!"
The two ran directly to the city gate. Feng Ning took the buns to Brother Bing and apologized to them for lying.
Several soldiers were very happy when they saw someone delivering breakfast, and thanked them repeatedly. Feng Ning asked for peace of mind, and she was in a good mood. She waved goodbye to Brother Bing, turned and ran towards Brother Swordsman.
She smiled brightly, and the sun shone behind her, making her a little dazzling. Brother Swordsman waited there with his arms crossed and his chest, he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking.
Feng Ning ran up to him happily, and said proudly: "Come on, you come home with me, I want the money back to you."
She couldn't stop rejoicing, and stepped on the sunshine with her hands behind her back. It was dirty, but didn't care, like a cat strolling contentedly after a full meal.
After walking quietly for a long time, Feng Ning suddenly said: "Brother, I'm not so sad now. Look, I ran away from home for one night, but I met you, a good man, and the big brother who guards the city gate is also a good man. The early aunt is also a good person. There are so many good people in this world, why would it be so difficult?. Someone told me that as long as you treat each other sincerely, you will eventually be rewarded. I think this is right. My husband’s family doesn’t like me, Maybe I did bad things in the past, but I'm different now, if I treat them well, they will definitely change their minds on me, right?"
The swordsman did not speak. Feng Ning said again: "Oh, I remembered this, but I can't remember who said it to me. The person who taught me this must be a good person. Brother, I'm going to miss someone, but I don't know who to miss. It's really uncomfortable to have an empty heart."
Feng Ning didn't expect him to respond to her. She said that the foreword didn't match the second, and it was strange that people could understand her. But as long as there is someone around to listen and let her speak slowly, she will feel comfortable in her heart. She babbled and said a few more words, and when she saw that the Dragon Mansion was in front of her, she suddenly remembered that she could not climb the wall with the swordsman brother.
At this time, she felt a little embarrassed and stopped, she lowered her head and kicked the stones on the ground, and whispered: "Brother, I told you, my husband's house is here. But now, um, because of some old things, they I don't like me very much. So, I will take you in in a while. If you don't get the money soon, don't be surprised. I will tell them well, they are all reasonable and will give it. There are also some jewelry, which must be worth the breakfast money."
Before the swordsman could answer, Feng Ning asked again, "By the way, it's been so long, I haven't asked my eldest brother's name yet."
"My name is Long..."
"Oh, what a coincidence." Feng Ning exclaimed, "My husband's family name is also Long."
The swordsman sighed: "I know."
"Oh." Feng Ning lowered her head: "You also know that this house is the Dragon Mansion. His family is very famous. I, what am I, I'm not a bad person, really." She didn't know what to say, so she turned her head towards Going through the gate of Long Mansion: "Let's go, anyway, we have to go back sooner or later."
Before reaching the door, the door suddenly opened. A dozen or so guards and servants came out. The one in the lead saw Feng Ning and shouted, "Don't look for it, isn't this the third lady? She's here!"
Feng Ning couldn't wait to dig a hole and get into it immediately, it was really embarrassing. She was about to turn around to explain the situation to the swordsman brother, but the guards and servants suddenly bowed their heads respectfully.
Feng Ning was startled, but he heard them say hello: "Third Master!"
Feng Ning stared at them dumbfounded, turned around slowly after a while, and saw the swordsman elder brother accepted everyone's salute calmly.
He looked at Shang Fengning's round eyes and open mouth in surprise, and said softly, "My surname is Long, and my name is Long Fei."
Feng Ning stared at him like a fool, looked at him for a long time, and asked in a daze: "Are you Long San?"
"right."
"The famous Long Fei?"
"right."
"Your eldest brother's name is Long Teng, and your second brother's name is Long Yue?"
"Yes."
"You still have a vicious Mistress Yu in charge of your family?"
"Um."
"You married a lady named Feng Ning?"
"Um."
"it is me?"
"That's right."
"Do you recognize me?"
"Recognize."
"Then why did you meet at the city gate and didn't say anything?"
"What I wanted to say, you didn't give me a chance." In fact, when he ran into him at the city gate, he was thinking of catching her by chance, waiting to see her surprise and panic to cover up. But she never expected that she would wave her hand calmly and unrestrainedly, telling him that the city gate was not open, just wait. This surprised him, so he decided to keep his head down and see what the hell she was up to first.
Of course this couldn't be told to her, and she seemed to feel sorry for his deceit at the moment.
"After a lot of time, I didn't have a chance to talk?"
"..." Long San pursed his lips, not knowing how to answer. At first, he wanted to wait for her to show off, and then he played with her. Later, when she walked out of the city gate, she looked so helpless, and he suddenly had no memory of believing her. At that time, I wondered if it would scare her if he suddenly said that he was Long San, and she might not believe it. Later, she was so happy that he didn't want to tell her anymore.
In short, there is no right time.
Feng Ning stared at him, her eyes were red, and she said in a hoarse voice, "I'm injured and sick, and you haven't come to see me."
Long San is not comfortable anymore, wouldn't he say this at the gate? Isn't it a matter of confrontation and not knowing each other? Why did he suddenly turn this way.
Feng Ning looked sad and vulnerable: "Why are you ignoring me?"
"..." Long San was helpless, still speechless.
He was about to try to persuade her to go home and talk again, but saw the sad little woman suddenly change her face, with a fierce attitude of showing her teeth and claws, she rushed up to his calf and kicked him fiercely: "You big bastard! Big liar!" After kicking and cursing, he turned his head decisively and quickly left him and went in.
The incident happened suddenly, and a bunch of servants stared at Long San in surprise.
Long San confronted them with a straight face and asked softly, "Are you free?"
Everyone shook their heads and quickly dispersed.
