Houmen's runaway wife

Chapter 245
Everyone was taken aback by the old man's sudden movement. Yuan Zhen exuded a cold breath, and was about to push the old man away, but Su Mo stopped him.Yuan Zhen stood still with a cold face.Su Mo stepped forward to support the old man, trying to comfort her: "Grandmother, don't get excited, just sit down and talk slowly."

The old man tightly clutched the ink jade around Yuan Zhen's waist, his eyes dim with tears.Yuan Zhen saw that she was so sad that she couldn't hold back, so he took Mo Yu off and let the old man hold it in his hand.Only then did Su Mo help the old man aside and sit down.The breeze and dark night brought the sleeping Yuefu to the next room, Ji Shuxuan guarded the sleeping Tang Xiaoxiao in the back room, Yuan Zhen, Su Mo, Bai Qibo and the old man who was slowly recovering were left in the room.

The three of them waited quietly for the old man to speak, and the room was very quiet.Only the old man was sobbing softly.The dim oil lamp flickered, and the flame seemed to be getting weaker and weaker.Yuan Zhen got up and cut off the wick, and the room became much brighter in an instant.

"You are Yuan Jie's younger brother." The old man's voice was still choked with sobs, and she looked down at the Moyu in her hand, as if looking at her beloved lover.She raised her head slowly, and a mottled face appeared in front of the three of them.Su Mo was surprised to find that the skin that had been washed by tears was slightly glowing.Bai Qibo and Yuan Zhen looked at each other, and the latter said slowly, "Since the girl is an old friend, please meet her true face."

The "old man" nodded and went to the front yard.After a while, he came in again, and the old man had disappeared, replaced by a delicate girl.Although the coarse linen clothes can't conceal her youth.

"Liu Ruoxi." Seeing that the three of them were all looking at her, Liu Ruoxi said in a low voice, "In order to deceive others, I have been living in disguise."

"I don't know how Miss Liu met my eldest brother." Yuan Zhen just wanted to find out about this matter.

Liu Ruxi clenched the ink jade pendant in her hand, with a gentle smile on her face, as if she was caught in a sweet memory.It turned out that Liu Ruoxi was originally from Xiangcheng on the border of Dian Kingdom, and her parents were originally from Huaxia. It was only because of the hardships in their hometown that the whole family moved and started a small business in Xiangcheng.Opened a grocery store.Liu Ruoxi grew up in Xiangcheng since she was a child, playing around all day long, with a carefree personality, she disguised herself as a man and went around helping her father with business deals.

On this day, she dressed up as a man and wandered on the street again, but accidentally saw a few people dressed up from other places being picked up by pickpockets. She hated this kind of thing the most, so of course she yelled and caught up with the thief .Turning around, he was led into an alley by thieves, and was surrounded by several men who jumped out suddenly.She screamed in her heart that it was not good, because helping others made it impossible to protect herself.

Just as she was worrying about how to get out, the people who had stolen the purse before appeared.The leading man was full of heroic spirit, and without saying a word, he beat the thieves to the ground with a snappy skill.

"Thank you, little brother, for your help. But don't be so reckless next time. If you provoke these people, you will suffer." The pleasant voice jumped into her ears, Liu Ruoxi looked straight at the man in front of her, and forgot to answer for a while. .Until the man lightly patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Thank you for saving me today, young master. I still have important things to do, so let's go ahead."

"Wait a minute, what's your name?" She didn't think of it until she saw the man was about to turn and leave, and asked loudly.

"Yuan Jie."
