"I still remember the look in that man's eyes and the only words he said when we were kidnapped." Tong Xiaoye said suddenly, "It was so scary that even now, I still feel that those eyes were staring at us somewhere around us.
We seem to be right under this person’s nose. It’s really strange, what is going on?”
Xuan Jinyan was a little confused and stared at Tong Xiaoye.
"I mean, they seem to know who you are. It was just an accident that I happened to be with you. It was you they wanted to arrest, because that person said, 'Take her with you,' and when those people showed up,
, he didn’t even alert his brother who was nearby. He was the number one martial artist of the dynasty and his martial arts were extremely good.” Tong Xiaoye frowned slightly and said while thinking, “They don’t look like villagers in the mountains, nor do they look like ordinary people.
A bandit, more like——"
Tong Xiaoye was about to say the following when he heard something falling to the ground in the yard. He shut up and walked out of the kitchen. He saw that a chair in the yard had fallen.
"Isn't it windy?" Tong Xiaoye held up the wooden stool with some confusion. There was no one around and it was very quiet. "This good chair will fall over, it scares me."
There seemed to be another faint laugh, which made Tong Xiaoye tremble and press his ears. It was unbelievable in this blue sky and white sun, and it was quite scary with so few people.
The middle-aged woman came back from carrying water and poured it into the kitchen water tank. She was a little surprised.
The firewood she chopped when she left was neatly placed in a corner, the floor was swept clean, and the stove was neatly packed. Cabbages and radishes were placed against the stove and against the wall, and the dishes were also put away.
"Did you do it?" The middle-aged woman looked at Tong Xiaoye, who was holding a broom in her hand. Her face was a little sweaty and her face was slightly red.
Tong Xiaoye said with a smile: "Yes, my parents said that you should be grateful when receiving favors from others, and a drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring. But you saved my sister and me, and I can't repay you. I can still deal with these things."
Her smile is a little childish, sweet and pure.
The middle-aged woman smiled slightly and said, "You are indeed a good boy. May God bless you."
Tong Xiaoye smiled happily, and the little tiger tooth that was not obvious was extremely cute.
At dusk, the middle-aged woman's husband rushed back with a lot of medicinal materials in the basket on his back. He put it down, looked at Tong Xiaoye and Xuan Jinyan standing with his wife, nodded dullly, and said
Didn't speak.
"He can't speak." The middle-aged woman said calmly.
Tong Xiaoye and Xuan Jinyan were a little surprised and didn't know what to say next.
"We offended a very powerful person before." At the end of the day, the middle-aged woman seemed to be no longer wary of Tong Xiaoye and Xuan Jinyan, especially Tong Xiaoye, who was hard-working and sweet-tongued, and it was difficult for her not to like her, so,
The middle-aged woman calmly explained to the two of them, "My husband-in-law was arrested. Fortunately, he met a noble man to mediate. He swore to God that he would never set foot in front of others again, and he bit off his tongue to cut off the possibility of speech, so he saved his life and hid here.
"
Xuan Jinyan couldn't help but shuddered and bit off her tongue?! How much courage does this take?! She swallowed nervously and was speechless.
"I was also poisoned and would go crazy every time the moon was full. That's why my husband prepared medicinal materials in advance and asked me to soak in the potion on that day to avoid hurting myself." The middle-aged woman said calmly,
It seems that he is talking about people and things that have nothing to do with him.
