After breaking off the marriage, the Zhuangyuan Lang who was picked up was dressed weakly every day

Chapter 99 Are You Inviting?
It’s a new day, the sun is rising, the sky is clear, it’s a beautiful day.

The morning birds flew up from the forest of Nanping Mountain, as if with the purpose of bringing good news, and landed on the branches outside the guest room of the female pilgrim at Jingci Temple.

After chirping twice, the bird on the branch tilted its neck. Before it could finish "announcement", it was frightened by a loud noise and flapped its wings and flew away.

Shen Yanhan's door was banged.

"Come out! Come out quickly! You liar...!"

"Get out soon!"

When Shen Yanhan went out, she saw all the people outside the door who had given her money the day before. They were glaring, gnashing their teeth, and looked as fierce as if they wanted to eat her alive.

After the experience of being surrounded by them the day before yesterday, Shen Yanhan was somewhat mentally prepared to see such a scene now.

The magnificent skylight shines from the east, and the eaves are filled with bright sunshine. The bright-faced young lady stands in the bright light of the morning, neither humble nor arrogant, looking directly at the people under the eaves without fear or retreat.

Zheng Yuting, who was awakened by the movement and came out of the next room, couldn't help but froze when she saw the scene in front of her.

She recalled how yesterday when she saw the food brought by people from the mountains, the people in front of her were filled with tears of gratitude towards Mrs. Shen, praising her as a living Bodhisattva.In less than a day, their attitude towards her changed drastically.

Shen Yanhan was not frightened by the fight. She asked the people who came here loudly: "What on earth do you want to see me for?"

At this question, the crowd who had been silent for a while began to speak out. They were so excited that they began to squeeze in front of Shen Yanhan. At the same time, you said something to each other, shouting at Shen Yanhan, including insults, doubts, and explanations. ...everyone spoke positively.

This also creates a phenomenon: everyone is talking, but no one understands what they are saying.

Shen Yanhan frowned deeply at the noise and wrinkled his face, desperately wanting to figure out what was going on.

As the person who took the lead in giving money that day, the square-faced official Zhu Ming simply turned towards his companions, raised his hands high, "Everyone, everyone, be quiet, be quiet, listen to me, listen to me..."

Most of the commotion was finally extinguished by his actions. After Zhu Ming said, "I'll speak first," and his companions finally silently acquiesced, he explained the reason for their anger on behalf of everyone.

"You lied to us! You promised to eat two meals a day, one dish and one meal, but you did not fulfill your promise. This morning, Xiangji Kitchen prepared water porridge. We spent a lot of money, but you are fooling us! This food The conditions are much worse than what you said!"

Shen Yanhan didn't know the actual situation of the grain transportation. After she personally counted the first round of grain yesterday, she had a headache due to the wind and cold and the body heat couldn't bear it, so she handed over the matter to Qin Yuehuai...

Thinking of this, Shen Yanhan's thoughts suddenly flickered.

Yes, where has he gone?It doesn’t take just one night to mobilize others to repair the house.

As if he heard the murmur in her heart, Zhu Ming said loudly: "Are you going to send us just a small batch of food?"

Shen Yanhan stood in the center of the crowd, facing the mouths that agreed with Zhu Ming. Looking at their faces with different expressions, she sneered: "That little bit of food? If you have the ability, go get that 'little bit of food' yourself." Ah! Besides, you all saw yesterday that even that small amount of food is enough to feed you for two days. It’s just past time now, not to mention there is still time in the evening, and it’s still early in the afternoon, so how can we confirm that we don’t have two meals today? Got something to eat?”

There was some truth in what she said, and everyone's arrogance had cooled down a bit.

When everyone was quiet, Shen Yanhan said again: "Did someone say something to you on purpose? They have bad intentions and deliberately stir up trouble just to take advantage of you."

Who wouldn’t try to maliciously speculate on people’s hearts?

After Shen Yanhan finished speaking, these people actually looked at each other for a few seconds, and then they looked at Zhu Ming in unison, as if they had decided that he was the one taking advantage of them.

It has to be said that under extreme emotions, human intelligence retreats too easily.These people are just afraid that they will have nothing to eat today. After receiving the news that breakfast is still porridge, they are really afraid that the experience of being so hungry that their chests pressed against their backs in the past few days will happen again. .

Seeing Shen Yanhan appear and surrounded by a group of people, Zheng Yuting plucked up her courage and said, "Didn't Madam Shen give us dinner yesterday as promised? Even if today's food is a little late, we still use yesterday's food." , the dinner is enough for everyone. Last night’s meal was much better than the previous few days. You might as well wait a little longer.”

This incitement lowered everyone's expectations and went straight to dinner time.

Shen Yanhan struck while the iron was hot and said something to communicate with the host before squeezing out of the crowd to ask about the situation.

Zheng Yuting followed her, looked back and saw that no one had followed her, and whispered to Shen Yanhan: "I heard from Wang Xi that Sanlang and the others no longer built the road to Lin'an Mansion in the east, but went to the west of the mountain. "

Shen Yanhan paused.Wang Xi was Liang Yifei's closest follower. Since Mrs. Liang was not in good health, he had been running back and forth between Mrs. Liang and Liang Sanlang in the past two days to convey news from each other. What he said must not be false.

Then they changed their plan and stopped building roads. Why?
Feeling uneasy in his heart, Shen Yanhan turned around and headed towards the temple gate.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to Xishan and have a look."

Zheng Yuting followed Shen Yanhan's footsteps, fearing that she would abandon her, so she hurriedly said: "I'll go too!"

Shen Yanhan refused while walking: "You haven't walked through the mountain road. If you can't do it, just go back."

Zheng Yuting still insisted, "I can do it."

Zheng Yuting was not Shen Yanhan's female envoy. Shen Yanhan could not restrict her travel. She walked on the front foot and was followed by Zheng Yuting on the back. She silently thought in her heart: Don't worry about her.

He said he didn't care, but when Zheng Yuting's feet slipped and slipped on the mountain road, and her butt fell again and again, Shen Yanhan picked up a wooden stick for her and tried to persuade her several times to go back the way she came, but to no avail. Han had to find some canes for her.

Zheng Yuting saw Shen Yanhan wrapping rattan sticks around her feet and asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Shen Yanhan pretended not to see the guard against her in her eyes, held down Zheng Yuting's retreating leg, and said succinctly: "I will tie these rattan sticks to the soles of your shoes. They will prevent slipping."

Zheng Yuting's face suddenly turned red, and she nodded heavily to the side of Shen Yanhan who was in front of her, who was devoted to helping her. She maliciously speculated on Shen Yanhan's motive of tying her up and not letting her go, and said in a mosquito voice: "Thank you very much. "

Without raising her head, Shen Yanhan continued the horizontal and vertical movements of her hands, tying the cane with force.

The cool mountain breeze blew, and the two young ladies were breathing rapidly due to running fast. The breath exhaled from their mouths was blown by the mountain wind, and it seemed to blend and dissipate.

The complicated relationship between the two of them can be close or far away.

Seeing the rattan nets on her feet taking shape, Zheng Yuting asked curiously: "How come you have such an amazing skill?"

Shen Yanhan was very indifferent to this: "What kind of amazing skill is this? There is a lot of mud in the mountains, and it becomes slippery when it rains. Everyone knows it. If you stand up and try it, your feet will feel a little bit numb at first. Just walk around and you'll get used to it after a while."

Zheng Yuting stood up unsteadily in response to Shen Yanhan's pull on her arm. She clearly felt that although she was a little bit stinged, the soles of her feet were really not that slippery.

She thanked Shen Yanhan again.

"Save your strength and leave quickly!" Shen Yanhan smiled encouragingly.

She didn't worry about this trivial matter at all and was rushing towards Qingshui Village.Based on her guess, something important must have happened on this road.

Zheng Yuting followed Shen Yanhan, feeling complicated as she saw a lot of mud stains on the lower half of her cloak.Some of the mud was from walking, but some was caused by her cloak inevitably being scattered on the mud just now when she squatted down to help her.

What does Saburo like about this little lady?

Is it because she is not only beautiful in appearance, but also kind-hearted, informal, will not be stumped by difficulties, and always tries to find a solution with optimism and perseverance?
Zheng Yuting didn't want to admit that she was not as good as Shen Yanhan, but the fact was that, when she was protected by her family in Lin'an Mansion, she was able to get wind and rain, but living among the mountains, forests and wilderness, she felt that she could do nothing. She can't even walk well, but Shen Yanhan, who grew up in Lin'an Mansion, can navigate the mountains and forests with ease.

And the most important thing is that in Liang Yifei's heart, she can't compare to her.

The two continued on their way.

After all, they are all pampered little ladies in a deep boudoir, and they are not very used to rushing on mountain roads like this. Either Shen Yanhan fell off her front foot, or Zheng Yuting fell off her back foot. Fortunately, the mud and snow were soft, and the pain passed without any pain. They were a little dirtier and the process was a little slower, but they both had a purpose in mind and gritted their teeth, never thinking of giving up.Shen Yanhan looked back at Zheng Yuting from time to time, not showing it on his face, but full of admiration in his heart.

Zheng Yuting is not like her. When she was a child, she and Cai Xizhu ran all over the mountains and fields in Qingshui Village and gained a lot of experience. Now she also lives in the village and has to walk on uneven mountain roads to get in and out. She must have never walked on a mountain road.And she fell down, biting her lip so hard that it almost burst, but she never complained or cried, and still insisted on moving forward.

Shen Yanhan felt that Zheng Yuting had a perseverance that should not belong to the delicate and delicate daughter of the Hou family.

However, because there was Liang Yifei in the middle who did not hide his likes and dislikes, she and Mrs. Zheng were in an awkward position. She also knew that even if she admired her in her heart, she was destined not to be on good terms with her.

Shen Yanhan took back her thoughts and continued walking forward with Zheng Yuting.

They reached the landslide and were forced to stop.

Shen Yanhan's face turned pale as he looked at the mountain that had collapsed into a steep slope.

"The road is gone?" Zheng Yuting exclaimed before her.

Shen Yanhan stood there and did not dare to move.

Although this was the first time she saw a landslide with her own eyes, she had heard many related rumors from Qi Yun and Aunt Li of Qingshui Village.

A whole mountain collapsed, covering the entire village under the mountain, leaving no one alive, and a scalding fire dragon emerged from the ground, which could burn dozens of miles without leaving a living thing...etc. The words she heard left a lot of impact on her young heart, causing her to worry that the place where she lived would suddenly be hit by such a disaster one day.

Now that she had seen such a huge landslide with her own eyes, her heart was beating fiercely, and she could not help but think that Qin Yuehuai had gone out yesterday evening and had not returned yet, and then Liang Yifei abandoned the important matter of road construction and changed direction. , could it be...

She stared at the vast stretches of loess, afraid of actually seeing someone's buried robe, but she couldn't help but stare at the soil.

The wind blows through the mountains and forests, rustling.

Shen Yanhan felt that her breathing was tight and her heartbeat was erratic. The plain-colored dress she wore specially for her late mother's birthday was fluttering in the wind. The skirt was wrinkled and clinging to her body, dragging her graceful figure along with it.

Different from such a desolate and dazzling scenery, Shen Yanhan's face was full of sadness, extremely worried.

Zheng Yuting didn't understand the specific reason for Shen Yanhan's sad look. Compared to Shen Yanhan, she just wanted to see Liang Yifei. She wasn't too worried, so she looked around slowly, looking at the mud quilt at her feet, which was much larger than a woman's shoe prints. After pressing out the traces, her heart skipped a beat and she looked in the direction of the shoe prints.

Sure enough, "There is a path here!" Zheng Yuting exclaimed again.

"He, they, they are there!"

When the mountain wind blew again, the coolness on the tip of her nose seemed to match the unique fragrance of wood and leaves in the mountains and forests. Shen Yanhan slowly turned her face sideways, and following Zheng Yuting's gaze, her mood changed from rainy to sunny, and the breeze blew on her face. The soft hair reached her eyelashes. She raised her hand to brush it away, bent her eyes, and took a step ahead of Zheng Yuting, holding up her skirt and running wildly.

"Shichiro!"

Qin Yuehuai, who was being helped by Yang Dong to walk, naturally didn't want Shen Yanhan to notice anything strange about him. He pushed Yang Dong's hand away and stood up slowly, "Slow down, don't run, slow down!"

Shen Yanhan's ears were filled with the sound of wind and she didn't even hear his instructions.

She saw her husband "resurrected from the dead" in her mind, vaguely heard his voice, and ran faster.

Running up to Qin Yuehuai who was walking at the front of the team, Shen Yanhan had wet eyes. Before Qin Yuehuai could open his mouth, she stretched out her arms and her whole figure bumped into Qin Qilang's arms and hugged him. waist.

"Uh……"

If it had been anyone else, Qin Yuehuai would have slapped the intruder away with his palm, but she was Shen Yanhan, whom he never guarded against. Being hit by this collision, the pain on the surface and the inside mixed with each other. Qin Yuehuai couldn't bear it. Stopping, a cry of pain escaped from the gap between his lips.

Shen Yanhan looked up at him and saw the big beads of sweat on his forehead, as well as his tightly pressed thin lips that lost their color.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Yanhan asked him.

"It's okay, it's the same old habit." Qin Yuehuai smiled weakly.

Qin Yuehuai's "old problem" has no record of overcoming it in Shen Yanhan, only individual weakness.

Shen Yanhan frowned and stretched his neck to look at Cai Yu behind him, wanting to confirm with him. Cai Yu said first, "Everything will be fine if you rest and rest."

Cai Xizhu stretched out her hand and waved towards Shen Yanhan, her lips saying: "Bright."

In order to divert her attention, Qin Yuehuai stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, leading her in the direction she was coming, and said: "The remaining food is here, and some time was wasted because of this landslide. "

His original intention was to secretly explain to Shen Yanhan why he did not go back last night, but Shen Yanhan had other ideas: "You and I will not go back to Jingci Temple."

This is what she did to help Jingci Temple.As long as the promised food was delivered by fellow villagers, she had nothing to worry about.Now that she has left the temple, she no longer wants to face the group of people who never trust her.

"Okay, let's go home." Qin Yuehuai followed her.

"not going home."

"Where?"

"You'll know when you get there."

Shen Yanhan briefly arranged things for Jingci Temple for a few people in Qingshui Village, then took Qin Yuehuai and continued to the west.After walking a few steps, she came back and pulled Cai Xizhu, inviting her: "Zhuzhu, you come with me too!"

Cai Xizhu didn't dare to make a decision on her own, so she turned to look at her father and asked him for instructions.Under the eager gazes of Shen Yanhan and Cai Xizhu, Cai Yu nodded.

When they passed by Liang Yifei, Liang Yifei greeted her: "Ayan."

"Yes." Shen Yanhan smiled generously at him, "Ms. Zheng fell a lot on the way to see you."

Liang Yifei looked at Zheng Yuting. Zheng Yuting was covered in mud, both on her clothes and face. Seeing him looking at her, she looked like a child who had done something wrong. She smiled, lowered her head, and clenched her clothes awkwardly.

*
Shen Yanhan and the others walked for about half an hour and soon arrived at Tangquan Villa, the nearest village in Lin'an Prefecture.

Qin Yuehuai was lucky that Cai Yu had taken two doses of medicine before going up the mountain and gave him one dose when he saw him.

After successfully entering Meng Changqing's Zhuangzi, having the first experience, Shen Yanhan and Qin Yuehuai very skillfully entered the hot soup room where they had soaked last time.

"Go in and get rid of the cold!" Facing the soup pool, Shen Yanhan rubbed the tip of his nose and said, then walked away.

"Ah! Ahh!"

Seeing that her cold had not healed, Qin Yuehuai was concerned and asked, "You don't want to remove it?"

Shen Yanhan, who originally turned around and walked a few steps, paused and looked back at Qin Yuehuai.

The hot soup was thick and rising, and the face of the husband who was taking off his cloak was hidden in the mist, looming.He was leaning sideways, with a thin figure, and his eyes should be looking in her direction.

She asked uncertainly: "Are you...inviting me to hang out with you?"

　Accept the invitation?
