"Yu Xi, do you want to go into the city with me today, just in time to go to Uncle Qin's house to meet Aunt Qin?"
In the courtyard, there was a man and a woman alone, so ambiguous that Li Zexuan wanted to stay with Han Yuxi quietly for the rest of his life.
Han Yuxi looked at Li Zexuan who was sitting next to her on the swing. She felt a little funny in her heart. This swing was tied to Tiedan by Han Lizheng before, but now Li Zexuan is sitting on it to play. Sometimes her young master is mature and steady, but sometimes he is... Like a child.
After hearing Li Zexuan's words, Han Yuxi thought for a while and replied: "Master, when you go back today, it will definitely be getting late. If I go, I won't be able to come back in the evening, so I'd better go tomorrow."
Li Zexuan subconsciously wanted to say, if you can't go back, you can stay at my house, but he was afraid that he would offend the beauty by saying this, so he had to swallow the words that came to his lips.
"Then you should be more careful when you go alone tomorrow, or you go with the dealers who are going to the market tomorrow."
Li Zexuan thought for a while and then ordered. Han Lizheng didn't have a clue about the martial arts master who stole alcohol last time. He always felt that the person's purpose was not that simple.
Han Yuxi felt warm in her heart and responded in a low voice: "Don't worry, young master, Yuxi will be careful."
Li Zexuan felt a little relieved. He raised his head and glanced at Han Yuxi who was holding the rope of the swing. Suddenly his childlike innocence grew and he said with a smile:
"Yu Xi, you come on top and I'll help you swing."
Han Yuxi frowned and said, "Master, this is for children to play."
"Who said this thing can only be played by children? Didn't you see that I was playing with it just now?"
Han Yuxi: "... ... ... ... "
"Come up quickly. If you don't come up, I'll carry you up!" Li Zexuan was a little arrogant at the moment.
"No, I'll go up by myself..."
... ... ... ... ... .
"Ah~, Master, put me down quickly, it's too high!"
Han Yuxi closed her eyes, grasped the rope tightly with both hands, and shouted.
"Don't worry, I'm protecting you so you won't fall!"
"No, put me down quickly."
"No, Yu Xi, don't you think it's interesting? Don't be afraid. With my skills, I can catch you even if you fall."
... ... ... ... ... ..
After a while, Han Yuxi finally adapted to the height, stopped screaming loudly, and gradually became quiet.
Under the setting sun, a flowery girl sat on the swing, and a handsome man behind her was slowly pushing the swing. Both of them were silently enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.
"Ahem!"
Qin Qiong felt that she had come back late enough, but she didn't expect to see something she shouldn't have seen. She coughed twice to remind them that someone was coming.
Han Yuxi immediately acted like a frightened rabbit. She hurriedly squeezed Li Zexuan's hand and signaled him to stop pushing, and then Han Yuxi got off the swing directly.
Li Zexuan only felt a warmth and greasy feeling on his hands, and couldn't help but stop his movements. Then the wonderful touch disappeared, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.
"Father, you are back!"
Han Yuxi clenched her hands and greeted Qin Qiong like a child who had done something wrong.
"Well, I'm back."
Qin Qiong naturally pretended not to see anything and responded.
"Uncle Qin, how are you doing in the village?"
Li Zexuan spoke up to cover up his embarrassment.
Hearing this, Qin Qiong stroked his beard and said half-jokingly: "I found that the farmers in Hanjiazhuang are obviously much richer than the people in other villages. Xiaoxuan, you are a good landlord!"
Li Zexuan chuckled and said, "Where is it?"
Qin Qiong was hesitant to speak at this moment, but finally said: "Xiaoxuan, come out with me, I have something to ask you."
After saying that, he walked out of the courtyard, leaving Li Zexuan with his back.
Li Zexuan looked at Han Yuxi and said, "Yuxi, I'll go out for a while. You go see if Uncle Han and Uncle Cheng are awake."
Han Yuxi nodded, but at the same time she felt a little uneasy. She didn't know what her adoptive father was going to say when he asked Li Zexuan to go out. Could it be that she and him... Oh, don't be like this.
Han Yuxi blushed a little when she thought of this and quickly entered the house.
... ... ... ... ... ...
Outside the yard.
Qin Qiong stood under a big tree with her hands behind her hands, waiting for Li Zexuan to come over.
"Uncle Qin, what do you want from your nephew?"
Qin Qiong turned around, looked at Li Zexuan, and asked seriously: "Xiaoxuan, tell me the truth, why do you raise so many chickens?"
Li Zexuan said strangely: "Uncle Qin, didn't my nephew already tell me about that morning court meeting? You were also present at that time."
Qin Qiong shook his head and said: "I believed it before, but today I went to the chicken farm in the back hill of Hanjiazhuang. Now I don't believe your excuses. Tell me the truth!"
Li Zexuan asked in confusion: "Why is this?"
Qin Qiong sneered: "Humph, you kid is still not honest with me! I just went up the mountain to see that there is a person training chickens in every chicken farm on the mountain. If it is just because of the two reasons you mentioned before, what can you do? It's unnecessary, what are you hiding? Can you tell me?"
Li Zexuan suddenly realized that this was the original problem, but he really couldn't tell anyone about the locust plague, otherwise there would be trouble. He was also in trouble for a while.
"Well, Uncle Qin, you guessed it right. This matter is indeed not that simple, but I can't tell you the real reason."
Li Zexuan gritted his teeth and said.
Hearing this, Qin Qiong stepped forward quickly, grabbed Li Zexuan's arm, and said urgently: "What on earth can't you tell me? I'm not a garrulous person. Don't you still believe me?"
Li Zexuan quickly waved his hand and explained: "That's not the case. Don't get me wrong, Uncle Qin. My nephew definitely doesn't mean this. It's just that I really can't tell others about this matter. Please don't embarrass my nephew again."
Qin Qiong let go of his hand, turned his back, looked at the sunset on the horizon and sighed:
"That's all, I won't force you. But I always feel that something big is going to happen behind this. I joined the army as a young man, bounced around all the way, and finally defected to the Tang Dynasty. After going through hundreds of battles, the world was finally at peace. Even if I fall I have no regrets about the root cause of my illness, because the Han people can finally settle down and recuperate.
Xiaoxuan, you are a descendant of the gods, so you may not know the sufferings of the world. In the past few years, the world was in war, and the Central Plains had ten rooms and nine empty houses. Human lives are not as good as dogs. I really can't see the people suffering, because the people suffering are a shame to us Tang soldiers. We failed to protect them. "
Qin Qiong turned around, stared into Li Zexuan's eyes, and said seriously:
"I have heard that Master Lingxu is a man among the gods, with great wisdom and ability. As his disciple, you will definitely know a lot. I don't care what you are hiding, but I hope that you are doing Beforehand, we can consider people's livelihood, and the people have already had enough hardships."
