Until I entered the house with me and was taken by Qian Wu to take a hot bath to get rid of the mud and dirt, and also put on a new set of clothes, I felt energetic, but Liu Saner was still a little at a loss.

, I held my sleeve and walked around the manor at a loss. After entering my house, he stood in the middle of the room and kept looking at me, as nervous as if I would disappear in the next moment.

Looking at the slightly dark circles under his eyes, I said with some distress: "You - you have been looking for this place all this time?"

"Hmm."

"Have you been looking for me?"

"Yeah." He nodded heavily and smiled at me: "I'll be fine if you're okay."

"Have you been looking for me?"

I kept repeating this sentence, and my throat was choked up. Liu Saner looked at my red eye circles and felt a little embarrassed. He was at a loss, as if he wanted to reach out and hold my hand, but as soon as he touched me

The fingertips felt like they were burned by fire again

He shrank back and said in a low voice: "I didn't know where you were going, so I searched all the way. I thought you were going to Yangzhou City, but halfway through, everyone on the road said they had never seen you, so I asked

Folded back again."

"..."

"I walked in several directions, but none of them were right. Later, when I was walking this way, I heard someone say that they seemed to have seen you going up the mountain. I originally planned to follow you-"

When he said this, his dark face turned red, and he scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

I tried my best to swallow the pain in my heart and said, "Then, what will Aunt Liu do if you have been out for so long?"

"I asked Aunt Zhao and Yunxiang to help me take care of her for a while," Liu San'er said: "She also asked me to come out to find you. She said that you are a girl and you are pregnant, so it is not safe to be outside like this. Let me be sure

If I want to find you, even if I don’t take you back, I must get news about you and know that you are safe before I go back and tell her.”

When I heard him say these last words, tears suddenly filled my eyes.

Seeing that I was almost crying, Liu Saner suddenly became anxious and said at a loss: "Qingqing, you - don't cry, don't cry!"

I bit my lower lip and lowered my head to prevent him from seeing me, but I couldn't stop my eyes from getting hotter and hotter, and tears seemed ready to fall at any moment.

But he was still so anxious that he stammered: "Don't cry, stop crying!"

Although he tried his best to hold it back, the tears still fell like broken beads. It seemed that this was the first time Liu Saner saw a girl cry. She was so panicked that she didn't know what to do. She stretched out her hand to comfort me, but it was not good.

Touching me, he finally reached out his hand in front of me at a loss.

A snap.

My tears fell on his palm, and a crystal tear blossomed.

"Stop crying..."

His rapid voice also slowly calmed down, with a strange hoarseness, as if the rock was grinding on his heart, a little painful, but also rough and gentle.

I raised my head and looked at his gentle and concerned eyes. For some reason, my face was stained with tears, but I suddenly laughed again.

Liu Saner was still holding the drop of tear in her palm, looking at my smile, she also smiled.

Just after I finally stopped crying, the maid at home brought a table of food. I said apologetically: "Thank you for your hard work. I will tell Mr. Huang about this later."
p>

After all, I am still a guest here. I brought Liu Saner in without telling the host, which was already a bit inconsiderate. I also asked the servant to bring food. But now Huang Tianba and Mu Hua are still in the house and have not come out, and so are the two of them.

We just reconciled, so it’s really inappropriate to go in and disturb them at this time.

The servant girl smiled: "Girl, don't say polite words. My lord, we can still do this."

"Thank you."

"Thank you." Liu San'er also thanked him. The servant girl looked at us, as if relieved, turned around and left.

The food on this table was not sumptuous, but it also had fish and meat. Just looking at it made people want to eat. I also knew that Liu Saner must not have eaten enough in the past few days, so I pulled his sleeve and sat down: "

Come, let’s eat first.”

"Hmm."

He smiled awkwardly, sat down, picked up the bowl, and started eating.

Looking at his look, it would be a lie to say that I didn't feel bad, especially when I remembered that when the door was just opened, he came to ask for a drink of water. I didn't know how much hardship he had suffered along the way. I took some chopsticks and picked up some shredded meat and put it in.

He put the bowl in his mouth and said softly: "Eat more."

He looked at me with a smile, picked up the meat I gave him and stuffed it into his mouth, eating with a satisfied look on his face. I looked at him with a smile, filled him with another bowl of soup, and handed it to him,

I saw that he suddenly remembered something, looked down at the food on the table, and said to me: "Qing Qing, can I save two steamed buns?"

"Eh? Just eat it, there's some on the table."

"Oh no, it's not." He said, "Actually, I had some dry food with me, but when I passed by a ruined temple in front of me, I saw a crazy woman inside who was about to starve to death, so I gave her all the dry food.

I don’t have anything to eat myself. I think the woman can’t find anything to eat, so I want to bring her two more steamed buns. She’s so pitiful.”

After listening to his words, a warm current surged in my heart.

He is still as enthusiastic and helpful as he was when he was a waiter in Yangzhou City. Even if he is just a passerby, he still cares about the other person and spares no effort to help.

The man in front of me is obviously the poorest person I know, but he is so rich!

And in my heart, I had a vague feeling——

Such a person can do great things!

Looking at his questioning look, I smiled faintly, handed the soup bowl in my hand to him, and said, "Just eat it, I will ask them to prepare the steamed buns, and I will go with you later."

"Well, okay!"

He nodded his head happily and took two more mouthfuls of rice into his mouth. However, his movements suddenly slowed down and he looked up at me. His cautious eyes made me think: "What's wrong?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Qingqing, then you - will you go back with me?"

I was stunned for a moment, and the chopsticks I was about to pick up food for him froze.

Go back?

I raised my head and looked at him. He was also looking at me. Although he was a little cautious, his eyes were so serious and solemn. He was silent for a moment and said with a little shyness: "I-I hope you can go back with me."

"..."

"Qingqing, I will take good care of you."

"..."

I wanted to open my mouth to say something, but my throat suddenly became choked up. After a while, I managed to say: "But, I——"

"I will also take good care of this child," Liu Saner said hurriedly before I could finish, "I will treat him well, just like my own. Really!"

"I'm not afraid that you won't treat your child well, but——"

The words are on my lips, but I can't say them.

What can I say? I have long lost the qualifications to marry and be happy, from the first time that man abused me. And over the years, I have gone around, loved, suffered, cried,

How could I, who was tired and full of emotions, impose my broken life on the life of such a simple man like water?

Especially, after I knew his thoughts.

Liu San'er saw that I had finished half of my sentence, but waited for a long time without hearing the second half. He hesitated for a while and said softly: "Qingqing, I, I don't have much money, and I can't even give you the life I have now."

. But - I will work hard. Don’t worry about our life being difficult. You probably don’t know yet. Just two days after you left, the official approval came out and our taxes were reduced by 30%."

"Ah?" I was stunned for a moment and looked up at him.

Taxes have been reduced by 30%?

Although it is not as good as previously expected, this decision has brought about earth-shaking changes for the entire dynasty. It is no wonder that the war in the north is so tight now.

He has already made this decision!

The world will change because of him, but what about the people in this world? How many people will be changed because of him?

I raised my head in a daze, and Liu Saner smiled and said: "My injuries have completely healed. I plan to go to the foot of Niangniang Mountain to get a few acres of land and live a good farming life. This way I don't have to go out for a long time, and I can take good care of you -

—And the child in your belly."

"..."

"Of course, if you like to eat fish, I can still go down to the river!"

"..."

His eyes were shining, and when he looked at me, his face was full of hope, "Our life will get better!"

At this moment, I looked at him stupidly, but my eyes seemed to be dazzling, and the shadows of many people flashed through me in an instant - Pei Yuanxiu, Nangong Lizhu, the Supreme Emperor, the Empress Dowager, Yang Yunhui, Yang Jinqiao... and Huang

Tianba, and Xue Muhua.

There is also that man's face, faintly in front of you, whether he is happy or angry, every frown or smile, it is all before your eyes.

It turns out that I have already experienced this in half my life...

Many people would think that an ordinary couple would have no fun working from sun up to sun down, working hard every day to make a living. However, what if they love passionately? Shouting, crying, struggling, these are the opposites of love.

?

I looked at the haggard face in front of me and said softly: "Do you really not dislike me?"

When he heard this, he hurriedly wanted to say something, but I interrupted him and said: "You have to think clearly, this child is not yours, but I will give birth to him and raise him well. You really don't mind."

?And I... have this child, you should also know that my past... I am not worthy of you."

This time, Liu San'er did not answer, but slowly lowered his head.

The room fell silent.

In this silence, time passed bit by bit. It was obviously completely silent, but something seemed to be piercing my heart bit by bit. Looking at his drooping face, the eyes covering his eyes.

The thick black eyelashes made it impossible for me to see anything clearly.

Is he... going to regret it?

I retracted my hands and put them on my knees, trying to find a support, but I felt like I couldn't hold on to anything, and even my whole body was shaking.

At this time, he slowly raised his head.

Those dark eyes looked at me solemnly, the same as when he reached out to grab the five copper coins in the knife box, firm as a rock: "Qingqing, when I first saw you, you were not

Okay, but I-I still like you."

"..."

"It doesn't matter if you have children or if your past is not good, it doesn't matter."

"..."

"I am with you, and we will be very good in the future."

This time, he firmly reached out and held my hand. The warm and rough palm pressed against it, bringing an indescribable warmth that hit my heart.
p>

Looking at his serious look, my eyes became hot again. In order to cover up my embarrassment, I could only lower my head.

He looked at me quietly, waited for a long time, and said hesitantly: "You...did you promise me?"

I finally calmed down a bit, raised my head and looked at his expectant eyes, but suddenly felt a cunning heart, smiled, and said, "I don't want to promise you yet."

"Ah?"

"When I go back and ask Aunt Liu, I will promise you when she speaks."

"Huh?" Liu Saner looked at me and said blankly: "My mother, she will definitely agree. She likes you very much!"

Looking at the sly smile on my face, I suddenly seemed to understand something. I laughed, happily picked up the bowl and took a big mouthful of rice. After thinking about it, I asked again: "What are you going to ask my mother?"

?"

I just smiled and said nothing, picked up a large piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

Soon, Huang Tianba and Mu Hua also knew that Liu Saner was coming.

Although Huang Tianba was surprised by his arrival, he was not too surprised. When Liu Saner saw him, he was still as excited and respectful as before. It seemed that the person in front of him was still the seven from the three southern provinces who responded to Yangzhou City.

Twelve water and land ladles, the uncrowned king in the hearts of Jiangnan people.

What surprised me was Mu Hua.

She was very happy to see Liu San'er and me. After greeting her warmly, she heard that Liu San'er wanted to give some food to others, so she personally ordered the servants. After a while, the maid brought a food box.

There is not only a stack of steaming steamed buns inside, but also a bowl of ham and chicken stewed underneath, which is fragrant.

"Take them all, do you want someone to drive them there?"

Liu San'er didn't expect to get such good food. He thanked him gratefully and said, "No, no, it's just in the ruined temple not far ahead."

I also smiled and said, "I'll go there with him and be back soon."

After saying that, I subconsciously glanced at Huang Tianba. Although his face still looked a little tired, he had calmed down a lot. He glanced at me and just nodded lightly.

Liu Saner carried the box and went out with me.

I haven't been out in the past few days since I arrived at Huang's house. It's nice to go for a walk after dinner. The air in the mountains is very good. You can also hear the birds singing in the forest. The orange light of the setting sun filters through the leaves.

Sprinkling down, the mottled light and shadow make people feel like they are in a dream.

Liu Saner held my sleeve and said, "Be careful, don't fall."

I looked at him and couldn't help laughing: "I'm not a child."

"But you have a baby in your belly."

"..." I rolled my eyes at him, but he only smiled, but held my hand without letting go. He looked up and looked forward: "We're here."

In front of it is a dilapidated and almost shapeless temple, surrounded by overgrown weeds. The Buddha statue inside is covered with a thick layer of dust and covered with cobwebs.

In the dark corner under the Buddha statue, there is a person huddled up, shivering.

As soon as Liu San'er saw her, he hurriedly walked over and knelt down, and said carefully: "Hey, aunt, I've brought you something to eat."

The man originally fell to the ground with his head covered. When he heard his voice, he slowly squirmed and raised his head. Under his long disheveled hair, a pair of shivering eyes appeared, like those of a frightened little animal. He looked tremblingly.

He was looking at us. As soon as he saw clearly that it was Liu San'er, he immediately stretched out a hand as dry as a branch, grabbed his arm, and said hoarsely: "Son, son, you are here!"

Hearing this voice, my heart moved slightly.
