The moon on the fifteenth day is sixteen round, and from the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, the full moon has been diminishing day by day, and it has begun to become a crescent moon. The moon is cloudy and sunny, and people also have joys and sorrows. On the 17th day, it was the day when Father Xia took his daughter on the road back to his hometown.
The longer Yingying and Ye Xiaotian spend together, the harder it is for them to separate. Now that they have a bet, they have a legitimate reason to let their daughter leave, and this bet is obviously impossible to realize. Of course, Father Xia wants to Take your daughter away from Ye Xiaotian as soon as possible.
Outside the stone city, Yangliu Yiyi. Yingying nestled gently in Ye Xiaotian's arms, her slightly trembling shoulders were like fluttering willow branches, and her voice was even more indescribably sad: "Brother Xiaotian, we will be together for three years, okay?" long… "
Ye Xiaotian patted her on the back lightly, and said softly: "It is said that it was three years, but in fact it has passed in a flash. Besides, we have not been unable to see each other for the past three years. Every time I am promoted, I can see each other." You once, we will be a real husband and wife in three years, and by then, I will let you get tired of me every day, and you will carry it wherever you go."
"Fuck you, they won't be so worthless."
Yingying burst into laughter, although her voice was still crying, her pretty face showed a look of shame and joy: "This is what you said, every year, you must, must, at least come to see me twice!"
"Um!"
Ye Xiaotian nodded vigorously: "I will definitely work hard to get promoted, at least twice a year, so that I can see you."
"Yes, you have to be promoted." Yingying suddenly realized the crux of the problem. Although in her heart, there is nothing impossible for the wise and mighty brother Xiaotian to do, but after all, it is a big matter, so there is still some Worry.
But she thought about it for a while, and although her father was a military officer, she still had no idea about the rank of officials in her little head, so she had no choice but to ask Ye Xiaotian for advice: "Brother Xiaotian, are you now a military officer?" How many officials are there?"
This girl, why don't you open which pot and which pot to lift? Ye Xiaotian replied a little shyly: "I... am not in the mainstream right now."
Yingying broke the casserole and asked the bottom line: "How high is it not to be popular?"
Ye Xiaotian said vaguely: "If you are not popular, you have no quality."
Yingying was even more confused, and asked again: "Then how many grades are there if there is no grade?"
Ye Xiaotian thought for a while, and used a statement that Yingying could understand: "Well, it's equivalent to the tenth grade!"
"Ten products? Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
Yingying counted her fingers, and suddenly jumped up in surprise: "Wow, rank ten to rank six..."
Ye Xiaotian quickly comforted her and said, "Yes, from the tenth rank to the sixth rank, it sounds a bit..."
Before Ye Xiaotian finished speaking, Yingying had already grabbed his hand and said happily: "I thought it was so difficult, but it turned out that I was only promoted to the third level, hehe, it should be easy to be promoted to the third level? Then I can rest assured .”
This time it was Ye Xiaotian who was confused: "Is there a difference of three levels from the tenth rank to the sixth rank? From the ninth rank, the genuine ninth rank, from the eighth rank... Well, even if Yingying doesn't understand the official system, she should be promoted if she is only considered positive." Four times, Yingying's arithmetic... In addition, does she think that being promoted is just a joke, it's easy? Some Jinshi-born people have to stay in the county magistrate's position for a lifetime, and when they become official, they only raise the seventh rank consolingly. I want to be promoted to the sixth rank, and within three years!"
Ye Xiaotian thought for a while, then smiled, and said softly to Yingying: "Yeah, it's just a third level, it's very easy, maybe it won't take that long, after a year or so, we can get married. I The reason for saying three years is to be safe.”
"Um!"
Yingying nodded happily, and immediately thought of a very serious question: "It's been a year and a half, so is it too hasty to start preparing for the wedding now? Who should I invite to my wedding? Oh, things So much, I have to start planning right now."
Yingying thought happily, her smile became more and more beautiful.
Seeing Yingying's happy appearance, Ye Xiaotian suddenly felt that ignorance is also a kind of happiness. He wisely decided to let the lovely Yingying remain ignorant...
※※※
Zhan Ning'er was holding the rein of the horse and standing a few feet away from them, beating the bridle with the whip once and for all, as if she was wandering around admiring the scenery, but from the corner of her eye, she was always looking at Yingying and Xiao God, there is an indescribable resentment in his expression.
Zhan Ning'er accompanied Yingying to Jinling to look for Ye Xiaotian. Now that Yingying is leaving, she has no reason to stay. She felt that Yingying and Xiaotiancai were a match made in heaven, how could she have the courage to participate in it, but when she was really determined to leave, she still couldn't help but feel at a loss.
Suddenly, she saw Yingying said a few words to Ye Xiaotian's ear, and she walked towards her gracefully, her narrow waist was swinging gracefully, her steps were as light as a cat's, her style was soft and infinite, and the sun reflected on her face. Her pretty dimple, which can be blown to pieces, is as clear and clear as jade, with a translucent brilliance.
When Zhan Ning'er saw her, she couldn't help her heart pounding: "This is a woman, even if she walks a few steps, she is so charming, no wonder that thief is attracted to her."
Ning'er lowered her head and looked at herself. Her feet were irregular and she was very accustomed to standing. She could advance and retreat, run horizontally and stand vertically. Her figure was tall and straight and heroic, and she looked more like a man than a man. Ning'er suddenly felt inferior, no wonder she chose Yingying, who would want a manly wife.
Yingying came to the front, Zhan Ning'er cleared her cough, hid the sadness in her heart, and said with a smile: "Let's go."
Yingying's big bright eyes stared at her quietly, and asked softly: "Second sister, do you really want to go back to Guizhou with me?"
Ning'er's heart skipped a beat, she panicked for no reason, and said, "What's wrong?"
Yingying said softly: "Second sister, we will get married when brother Xiaotian completes the bet with my father. On the day I get married, will you come?"
Zhan Ning'er felt sour, and said against her will, "Yes... yes."
Yingying shook her head lightly and said, "Second Sister, you lied to me."
Zhan Ning'er suddenly seemed to realize something, but she didn't seem to realize anything. But Yingying's words clearly disturbed her, as if some ulterior secret was suddenly revealed by Yingying, she said eagerly, "I... How could I have lied to you?"
Yingying sighed, and said, "Second Sister, do you think I'm blind? Although I'm a little stupid, but Second Sister almost announced to the world with drums and gongs that you like Brother Xiaotian. not come out?"
Yingying only said one word, Ning'er flushed with embarrassment, wishing to find a crack in the ground to get in, Yingying saw her embarrassed face, suddenly opened her arms, hugged her gently, and whispered in her ear: " Brother Xiaotian is still waiting for a crime, although people believe that he will turn evil into good luck, but he is still worried. I need my second sister to take care of me here so that I can leave with peace of mind."
Zhan Ning'er breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a blushing face, "You...you want me to stay and take care of him for you?"
Yingying let go of Ning'er gently, looked at her with weird eyes, and said, "Second sister, I've already made it very clear, what else do you want from me? If you like to pretend to be stupid, that's up to you. It's just... don't regret it in the future, let alone blame me."
Zhan Ning'er finally confirmed the true meaning of Yingying's words: she... she agreed to be with her... Thinking of the scene where Yingying just whispered to Ye Xiaotian, Ning'er blushed again, her heart was about to jump out, and she stammered Authentic: "You...you told him?"
"I didn't!"
Yingying suddenly smiled, and the smile looked a bit sly: "He just agreed to the second sister, whether he agrees or not, it depends on the second sister! If he doesn't like you, the second sister is not allowed to blame me. If he likes you , then he will be sorry for me, and he must treat others better in the future, don’t you think?”
At this time, Yingying was smiling like a little fox who stole a few chickens, but Zhan Ning'er couldn't say a word anymore, Yingying blinked at Ning'er, and said: "Hey!" I've given you a chance, if you don't get what you want, it has nothing to do with me. When I get married, you must come, and you are not allowed to find any reason. "
Zhan Ning'er said: "I..."
Yingying said: "Not only do you want to come, but you also want to be my bridesmaid. I have already thought about it. The eldest sister and the second sister will be the best bridesmaids. Among the three sisters, I am the youngest, but I can be the first." Getting married makes me happy just thinking about it. Second sister, you stay, I'm leaving!"
Xia Yingying made a face at Zhan Ning'er, then walked towards the carriage parked on the road. Father Xia is out of sight now, hiding far away, afraid that seeing his daughter and Ye Xiaotian getting bored together will be unbearable, and once he gets angry, there will be another twists and turns.
Zhan Ning'er stared at Yingying's graceful back, wishing she could draw out her sword and cut off the little fox's tail with one blow. Scholars can be killed but not humiliated, how can anyone bully people like this? The Lun family is also a lady, okay? They actually want people to try their best to pursue him!
cough! Although people are doing this, but you say it, it is too embarrassing for others. What's more, if I fail, I have to go to your wedding and be your bridesmaid, watching your husband and wife worship each other, and seeing you sent to the bridal chamber...
Yingying got into the car, and Father Xia couldn't help but heaved a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, the weather was calm, and I was afraid that the night would be full of dreams.
Father Xia coughed and raised his voice to order: "Let's go!"
The wheels were rolling, and Yingying suddenly leaned out from the window, clasped her hands into horns, and yelled loudly at Ye Xiaotian under the willow tree in the distance: "Brother Xiaotian, I'll wait for you!"
Ye Xiaotian waved to her from a distance: "I... will..."
Father Xia's face darkened again, and he shouted angrily, "Let's go!"
A group of people embarked on the road back to the west, Yingying lay on the window, looked at Ye Xiaotian from a distance, and shook hands reluctantly at him, until the car turned around a forest and he was no longer seen, then sat back in the carriage , with her cheeks in her hands, her eyes flickering, but her heart suddenly relaxed.
She doesn't have any real sisters, the old Xia's family has too much yang energy, a delicate flower among the heroes, with such a big growth, only Zhan Ning'er and Tian Miaowen are the only ones she really considers her sisters. Seeing that Ning'er was troubled by love, Yingying always felt that she had robbed her of her love, who would have let her know earlier. Yingying has always been frank and frank, and this kind of guilt feels uncomfortable.
Well now, this problem has been left to Ye Xiaotian from now on. Anyway, she agreed to Ning'er. If there is no result between them, then she can feel at ease when she faces the second sister again, and she doesn't have to see Ning'er like a thief. It seems like I can't lift my head up.
Yingying held her cheeks, her eyes gradually blurred, she suddenly thought of that unsuccessful intimacy between her and Ye Xiaotian. In fact, the current Yingying still has no idea about the joy of fish and water, and she doesn't think there is anything attractive. Instead, she has a kind of timidity from the bottom of her heart.
But she also knows that this is the obligation that a wife must fulfill, so she always feels a little guilty towards Ye Xiaotian, why doesn't she know what Ye Xiaotian's burning eyes mean when he is alone with her, but she is really scared, so Occasionally, there is a chance for the two of them to be alone, and she must avoid this situation in a panic.
If the second sister can win Brother Xiaotian's favor, then let her bear it first. Yingying thought: "If the second sister can't die from the pain, I believe I can do it too."
Seeing the carriage and the knight gradually disappear at the end of the road, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but let out a long breath, and slowly clenched his fists: "From now on, I will work hard to be an official, seriously, the first step, It is to solve the identity of the candidates first. Then... "
Ye Xiaotian slowly looked towards the end of the sky, which was the direction of Huxian County, Guizhou: "Xu Xiancheng, Master Wang, since you want me to die, then I want you to die! Don't be complacent for too long, when I, Ye Xiaotian, come back again It's time for you to die!"
When Ye Xiaotian clenched his fists, raised his head to the sky, and proudly identified Xu Boyi and Wang Ning as the first prey he was going to hunt after he set foot in the officialdom, Zhan Ning'er had already aimed at her prey. Standing not far away, staring at Ye Xiaotian's back, like an eagle hovering above the sky, staring at a small field mouse poking its head, or like a tiger hiding in the bushes, stealing over the silly Stupid roe deer.
As far as Ning'er is concerned, Yingying is the biggest obstacle that hinders her and Ye Xiaotian from going further. Ye Xiaotian, let Ye Xiaotian take the initiative to like her, then she won't feel sorry for Yingying.
This kind of mentality, whether it is deception or self-deception, she can only make such an "ostrich" choice when she is neither willing to give up nor do she want to be morally responsible for Yingying. Now, with Yingying's promise, she has opened her mind, and she no longer has to play the role of a bitter girl, hoping that Ye Xiaotian's conscience will find out.
Once upon a time, how strong she was! In Huangxian County, in Huxian County... until her heart was secreted, gradually, she could only "humble and resent" in front of Ye Xiaotian, and had completely lost herself, but that guy still got cheap and behaved, and kept pretending to be crazy and stupid to him.
The more Zhan Ning'er thought about it, the angrier she became, she couldn't help staring at Ye Xiaotian's back, and thought coldly: "Now, can you still escape from my palm?"
