Chapter 103

Looking at Xu Dalie's young and handsome face, Qingxia suddenly felt a warmth and tenderness in her heart. She slowly held Xu Dalie's big hand and said softly: "Xu Dalie, Xia Qing likes this kind of thing very much." life, and I also like to live happily and freely outside the customs with you. But I have always regarded Xu Dalie as my good friend, and we can drink together, hunt together, and ride horses together. If I used to do What misunderstood you, or didn't see your hints, caused you to think like this today, then Xia Qing apologizes to you. But, now I really don't want to get involved in these things, I hope you can understand me .”

Xu Dalie was slightly taken aback, as if he didn't expect Qingxia to reject him without hesitation, he lowered his head and thought for a while before asking: "Is it because of the person you were waiting for that you rejected me?"

"No," Qing Xia shook her head resolutely, "He is my eldest brother."

"Xia Qing, don't lie to me. Your surname is Xia, and his surname is Yang. How could he be your real brother. I just want to know why you rejected me with such certainty. Is it because there is something wrong with me? "

Qing Xia pursed her lips, and said sincerely: "Xu Dalie, you are a very good person, you should find a better woman to love you well, not me."

"Xia Qing, I think you are better than any other woman. I don't like those savage women in the Northland, nor do I like the pretentious Han women in Dongluguan. You are kind-hearted and beautiful. If you are willing to marry me , even if all the countries give me princesses, I won't even look at them."

Qing Xia didn't know what to say, looking at Xu Dalie, she was at a loss for words.

Xu Dalie looked at Qingxia's bowed head in silence, sighed dejectedly, and suddenly asked: "Xia Qing, what does the person you are waiting for do?"

Qingxia saw that he still stubbornly believed that the person she loved was Yang Feng, since she couldn't explain clearly, she simply let him decide that it was okay, and said in a deep voice: "You are talking about Xu Dalie, he is indeed not my elder brother .He was my savior. For me, he gave up his fame, fortune and bright future. He almost lost his life. His life and death are still uncertain. You people in the Northland are all good men who value trust and righteousness. You say this Alone, can I let him down?"

Xu Dalie was taken aback for a moment, thought for a while and said in doubt: "Is he a general?"

"En," Qing Xia nodded and said, "Yes."

Xu Dalie nodded, and suddenly said with a smile: "You are right, Xia Qing, this man is a man, I will not force you."

Qing Xia smiled, reached out and patted Xu Dalie's shoulder, and said: "That's right, we are still good friends."

"En," Xu Dalie pulled the rein, the two looked at each other and smiled, and ran towards the village.After drinking some wine at night, Qing Xia was sent back to the tent at home by Xu Dalie in a daze.

Before she opened her eyes the next morning, Qingxia's drowsiness was shattered by the sound of horse hooves. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, and saw Bumble and the Nakdo brothers opened the curtain of the tent, facing the Qing Xia said loudly: "Jiama Agu, Xu Dalie is leaving!"

"What?" Qing Xia's drowsiness disappeared immediately, she opened her eyes wide and asked, "Gone? Where did you go?"

"When I woke up in the morning, he disappeared, and he didn't take away his things, not even the script, only this was left."

Bumble handed over a piece of paper, as soon as Qingxia took it, she immediately felt dizzy, put on her clothes hurriedly, ran out of the tent, and said to the two of them: "Wait, I'll go after him.

"Jema Agu, Xu Dali left last night, you can't catch up!" Bumble shouted.Qing Xia's footsteps froze in place, she was holding the scrawled letter in her hand.I just felt a slight bit of sourness growing wildly like weeds. The wind in the north was blowing fiercely, and it made people's cheeks hurt. Qing Xia sat down slowly leaning on the pillars of the tent, holding the letter's hand , trembling slightly.

Xu Dalie, how cruel and willful you are, what if something happens to you?Do I have to live a lifetime of guilt and self-blame?
"Jiama Agu," Nakdo asked gruffly, "Where did Xu Dalie go? What did the letter say?"

Qing Xia just felt very tired, she stood up slowly with the support of the pillar, walked into the tent, and hurriedly started to pack her bags.

"Jiama Agu, where are you going?" Bumble followed in, and when he saw Qing Xia packing up his things, he hurried forward, grabbed Qing Xia's hand, and asked loudly.

Qing Xia turned her head and patted Bumble's shoulder, the children outside the Great Wall are all strong and strong, Bumble is only 13 years old, already taller than her.She grinned bitterly at the corner of her mouth, and said lightly, "I'm not going anywhere, and I'll stay at your house in the future, okay?"

"Okay!" Bumble laughed happily: "Ama and Amoye must be very happy, we have wanted you to come here a long time ago."

"Come on, help me clean up."

The three of them hurriedly packed up Qing Xia's daily things, they didn't have many things at first, they only packed a small bundle, they pulled out the black horse from behind the tent, and the three of them left the snowy slope, Walk towards the village.

"Jema Agu, what did Xu Dalie do?" Bumble thought for a while, but still asked in doubt.

"That's right, just tell us." Na Ke said anxiously with a straight face.

Qing Xia pursed her lips, sighed, and said in a deep voice: "He went to join the army, and he didn't say where he went. If your grandma asks, tell her that he went to work in the pass with the dart runners. The business makes money, so she won't worry."

"Join the army?" The two boys immediately became excited and shouted: "Wow! Has Xu Dalie become a general? It's great!"

Qing Xia shook her head slightly, smiled bitterly, generals died in hundreds of battles, and strong men returned after ten years, no one knows the cruelty of war better than her.Xu Dalie, how can you be so willful, just entrust this big family of old and young to me, but are you going to tie my footsteps?The situation on the battlefield is unpredictable and unpredictable. How can such great military exploits be made so easily?

"Let's go." Greeting the two boys, they went to Aunt Duoihua's house and settled down.The grass grows and the warbler flies, the auspicious snow falls again, and in a blink of an eye, it is the end of the new year, and the white snow covers everything, and the year has passed by like this.

It has been a year since Xu Dalie left, and in the blink of an eye, Qingxia has also stayed in Sandfly County for more than a year. Xu Dalie did not bring home a single word. Similarly, Yang Feng did not have any news. Sitting in the small yard of Aunt Duo Yihua’s house, watching the large expanse of fiery red clouds drift by, I just feel that time seems to have grown wings, and it flies away without a trace, and I can’t see any traces anymore .

Putting down a handful of silk thread in his hand, he said with a smile to the neighbor's aunt Hanba: "That's it, just pull it in and it will be done."

"Oh," Aunt Hanba smiled plainly, stretched out her big rough hand to take Qing Xia's hand, looked at it twice, then raised her hand high, and said, "It's all the same. , why am I so stupid?"

Qing Xia smiled and said: "It's enough to practice often, this is actually quite simple."

"Hey," Aunt Hanba quickly shook her head and said, "No way, no way."

"Jiama Agu!" A series of shouts suddenly sounded, Qing Xia was stunned, and raised her head to see Bumble and Nakdo rushing into the courtyard on horseback, jumping off the horses neatly, Running in front of Qing Xia, he shouted loudly: "Jiama Agu, quickly follow us!"

Qingxia and Aunt Hanba stood up together, put down the scissors, needlework and other things on their knees, Qingxia asked suspiciously: "What happened? Are you in such a hurry?"

"We found a man in the Crooked Neck Tree, he seemed to be dying, we found this from him." He said and handed Qing Xia a long scroll.

When Qing Xia saw that scroll, she couldn't help raising her brows, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly rose in her heart.Quickly opened it, and there was a painting of a woman in military uniform, with flying eyebrows and eyes. It turned out to be the portrait of himself drawn by Lin Mubai himself!
"Where is that person?" Qing Xia was shocked and asked hastily.

Bumble spoke quickly, and said, "It's right under the crooked neck tree by the big river, go quickly, I see that he is exhaling too much and not inhaling, it's probably going to die."

"Lead the way!" Qing Xia turned around and climbed onto the horse's back. The two brothers rode a horse and led the way far ahead.

"What does that man look like, Bumble? How old is he?"

"It's about the same as me, only thirteen or fourteen years old. His clothes are torn and his face looks like a ghost. I haven't seen what he looks like."

Thirteen or fourteen years old?Qing Xia raised her brows immediately, and muttered in her heart.But still following behind the two of them, since this person can have this portrait, it means that he must have something to do with Lin Mubai, and he cannot turn a blind eye.

It was not far away, and after a while, they came to the river.The big river was already frozen, Qingxia followed the Bumble brothers and quickly ran under the tree, only to see a young boy lying in the snow, his whole body was stiff, his face was blue, he was almost freezing to death.Qing Xia took a look, and felt that the other party looked familiar, but couldn't remember where he had seen him.He said to Naketuo: "Nakedo, you carry him on your back, let's go back."

"Okay," Naketuo had great strength, picked up the young man on his back, and asked Qingxia: "Jiama Agu, shall we go home?"

"No," Qing Xia shook her head and said, "He can't last that long, go directly to my tent."

Several people quickly carried the boy to Qingxia's tent on the snowy slope, Bumble lit a fire, and Qingxia gave first aid to the boy after freezing. Fortunately, the boy was young, and his breathing became stable after a while If you come here, you are out of danger.
