But Shen Biyu didn't intend to let Feng Xi'er go. She stood up with a sinister smile and stepped hard on Feng Xi'er's fingers with both feet, which made Feng Xi'er's already painful body even worse.

Shen Biyu stopped when she felt good, stepped hard and let go, leaving Feng Xi'er with a cold smile and left.

Feng Xi'er felt like she was about to die. The ground was hard and cold. She had been kneeling from the day until now. She didn't know how long it had been. It was getting dark. The spring breeze came at night and blew on her body. It was chilly. Feng Xi'er felt that her body was cold. None of it is mine anymore. My palms are on the ground. It feels like my fingers have been stepped on so hard that the bones are broken. My arms are aching. My body is struggling. There is a large area of blood on my chest. The wound that was finally bandaged is even more open. It was serious, my neck was sore, my knees seemed to be dislocated, and my calves were so numb. Life is really worse than death.

It's not that I didn't think about sneaking away, firstly, there were two strong men guarding the door of the ancestral hall, and secondly, Feng Xi'er didn't have the strength to stand up at all. Kneeling on the ground, unable to die, fainting and unable to faint, tortured her will.

Time passed by in pain, and the night gradually became darker. It was a March day, with continuous spring rain and a cool night. What was worse was the night rain. The rain was not heavy, but the breeze wet the body, and it was still biting and cold.

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, the raindrops fell on the ground along the eaves, making a ticking sound. The area where Feng Xi'er was kneeling was where the eaves tiles were concentrated. After a while, water drops fell on her body. Every time a drop of water dropped, Feng Xi'er couldn't help but shiver. The master's body was already cold, and it got even colder when it was cold. His whole body was completely cold, and his lips were deathly white, making him look miserable and pitiful.

The two strong men looked at each other, and one of them said in a gentle voice, "Brother Erhu, should we give the eldest lady an umbrella? If this continues... I'm afraid the eldest lady won't be able to bear it."

The man named Er Hu glared at the honest and strong man and warned: "Don't be so kind. You have forgotten that the eldest lady almost killed the fourth young master. If you feel sorry for the eldest lady, you will offend the second lady. If you offend the second lady, then you will Don’t even think about hanging around in the Prime Minister’s Mansion.”

The honest and strong man was so frightened that he shut up and stopped talking. The two of them stayed on either side again.

Dongjiao Inn, by the window on the second floor.

Long Shi looked out the window and said with melancholy: "March is a good time. The spring breeze is strong and the drizzle is continuous. On rainy days, more people come to the inn to take shelter from the rain and drink tea." Taking a sip of tea, Long Shi looked at Xiang Long Qi continued: "After tonight, Brother Qi's birthday will be in four days..."

In four days, Xiao Xi will be married to Seventh Brother by his father.

Long Qi nodded, looked at Long Jiu who was sitting opposite, and pointedly said: "Soon, Xi'er will be mine, Long Qi..."

Long Jiu remained silent, but his lowered eyes evoked a cold and sarcastic smile. He was secretly embarrassed when he was about to die. Hey, after four days, he didn't know how to die.

Long Jiu hid his emotions, took out a small gift box, put it on the table and pushed it in front of Long Shi, saying, "Although it's a day late, I hope you like it."

Long Shi was surprised and flattered. He picked up the small gift box with a smile and said, "Brother Ninth rarely gives me a gift. I feel very lucky."

Long Jiu gave him a gift for the first time in twenty years, which made Long Shi feel very meaningful. Although it was a day late, in short, he was very satisfied. Furthermore, for Long Shi, who has never had a birthday, this year's birthday is the most meaningful. He tasted Feng Xiangu's good craftsmanship and received gifts from his brothers.

"It's nothing, Brother Jiu will go back home first." Long Jiu agreed to Long Shi's invitation and came out to make up for Long Shi's birthday gift. For the careless Long Jiu, this was his first time giving a gift, even though it was a day late. But the two brothers didn't care.

Unexpectedly, Long Shi also made an appointment with Long Qi. Naturally, Long Jiu didn't want to stay any longer, so he stood up and left.

"Brother Ninth, on rainy days, we brothers will drink tea and chat. Listening to the rain by the window is much more interesting than Brother Ninth reading medical books. This kind of weather is the most suitable for us brothers to drink tea and chat." Long Shi stopped Long Jiu, in fact, half of Long Shi's thoughts were to chat with Brother Jiu, and half of his thoughts were to promote the relationship between Long Jiu and Long Qi. Long Shi could see that the two brothers were politely distant. As the brothers' younger brother, Long Shi Ten felt that he needed to do something.

"I don't like rainy days," Long Jiu sat down and said calmly.

"Why?" Long Shi asked curiously.

"It's just that I don't like it." Long Jiu didn't want to say more. Rainy days would remind him of the bitter cold pain of jumping into the ice lake in winter. Rainy days are damp and dark, and his fingers are cold. What's even colder is Long Jiu's. Heart.

My heart is so cold that I can't warm myself up.

Long Jiu looked at the drizzle outside the window and thought of Feng Xi'er. She also had a cold body. If he and her were together, the two of them could warm each other.

"Brother Jiu, is the eldest lady's injury healed?" Long Shi followed Long Jiu's gaze and looked out the window, thinking that it would be great if Xiao Xi was here, where he could chat and watch jokes without any scruples.

I still remember when we first met, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, when early spring had just arrived, and the spring rain moistened everything. On that rainy day, Long Shi saw Feng Xi'er lying in front of the window with her eyes closed, smiling and hearing the sound of rain. When Feng Xi'er opened her eyes, Showing a bright and sweet smile, Long Shi felt as if he had seen a fairy, a pure and beautiful, gorgeous but simple angel.

Such a beautiful woman belongs to Brother Seven.

Long Jiu retracted his gaze and nodded: "Well, it's nothing serious. Just go back home and rest for a few days."

"Xiao Shi, do you know how to care about the eldest lady? Brother Qi was almost killed by an assassin. You don't even care about me. You are a guy who values sex over friends..." Long Qi was jealous, his tone was a little sour, and he turned his head arrogantly. .

Long Shiyi patted his head and immediately realized that he had committed a "death penalty". He quickly grabbed Long Qi's arm and checked it. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that it was fine.

"Brother Qi, please listen to my explanation..." Long Shi opened his mouth and wanted to defend himself. He looked up and saw Xiaotuo rushing into the inn despite the rain. His eyelids twitched and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. , stood up. Xiaodou rushed into the inn and looked up and saw Long Shi.

He took a big step and rushed to the second floor. However, he was too anxious and tripped on the stairs. His hair was all wet and his clothes were soaked. The moment he fell to the ground, the water droplets instantly wet the ground.

Long Shi strode over quickly, helped Xiaotuo up, and asked anxiously: "Girl, what happened? Where is your young lady?"

Xiaotuo seemed to have seen a savior, grabbing Long Shi's arm as if grasping a life-saving straw, and said hurriedly: "Master Ten, you must save our young lady, because the prime minister sent someone to guard the young lady. During the day, The young lady fled with her slaves, but unexpectedly... she met the fourth young master. The young lady made the fourth young master unhappy with her words, and the fourth young master actually stabbed the young lady... The young lady was so angry that she returned the sword and stabbed the fourth young master in the same way. With a sword, the second lady complained in front of the prime minister. The prime minister punished the young lady to kneel in the ancestral hall. Young lady, wuwu, the young lady was injured. She knelt from day to night, and now it started to drizzle again. How could the young lady's fragile body bear it? Slave! I wanted to come out to find the Tenth Prince, but the second lady sent someone to monitor the slave until it rained at night, and the slave escaped while it was dark... "
