Nativity

Chapter 273 Ji's Lonely Waiting 1
"We who walk on two legs don't say we are tired or hungry, but you who don't have to walk in the sedan chair say you are hungry and tired?"

"I don't care, if you don't give me food and drink, I won't leave!" Princess Jinyang pouted to Dongfang Yu'er.

"I'll go find you something to eat and drink." Shao Siming saw that Princess Jinyang's lips were chapped, and she was indeed stuttering.

"Stop!" Dongfang Yu'er couldn't understand Princess Jinyang's princess disease, so she stopped Shao Siming.

"It's a dark night in the wilderness, you asked us to go there to find food for you? It's almost dawn, can't you wait until dawn?" Dongfang Yu'er said again.

"I don't care. I'm either hungry or tired. If you don't give me food and drink, I... I won't marry."

Princess Jinyang threatened her marriage again, which made Dongfang Yu'er even more disgusted. "This is the wedding date that you said you would marry. Now you are on the way to get married. If you say you will not marry, you will not marry. Isn't this too much?"

"Yes, this princess does whatever she wants. You are so principled, so why don't you marry me?"

"That's your marriage, why should I replace it?"

"Because I am a princess, I can order you."

"Even if you are a princess, I will not obey your order."

The two quarreled again because of this matter!
Sima Ao, the captain of the sending-off team, naturally wanted to come out to persuade them to fight.

Sima Ao glanced at everyone, and said: "I've been on the road for the past few days, I think everyone is really tired, why don't you just rest here for a while. I'll get you some water."

"Let me take a few soldiers there." Yu Wenyan said.

"You can't go, you are responsible for protecting everyone, maybe ghosts will come out of the grave." Sima Ao said.

Seeing what Sima Ao said, Yu Wenyan stopped fighting with Sima Ao.

When Sima Ao said 'ghosts will come out of the graves', Princess Jinyang looked around in a little fear.

Dongfang Yu'er saw her, cast a contemptuous glance at Princess Jinyang, and said to Sima Ao, "Maybe there are ghosts around here too. I'll go with you, with multiple people and multiple helpers."

Sima Ao wished for more time alone with Dongfang Yu'er, and immediately responded, "Okay!"

They didn't know where there was water or where there was a house, so Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao had no choice but to follow the path to find it.

Along the way, Dongfang Yu'er was depressed and silent.

Sima Ao pulled a nine-tailed grass to make Dongfang Yuer happy. "Why, are you still angry with the princess?"

"No, it's worth getting angry with someone who has no brains." Dongfang Yu'er laughed.

Dongfang Yuer refused to admit it, but Sima Ao could see that Dongfang Yuer was still angry.

Sima Ao took a deep breath and said, "The princess has lived a life of being loved by thousands of people since she was a child. She doesn't understand the sufferings of the world, she doesn't understand what is the righteousness of the nation, and she knows how to spoil a child's temper. You are different from her, you know very well. Dayi, I don’t have the same knowledge as her.”

Dongfang Yu'er silently listened to Sima Ao's words.

After a long time, Sima Ao sighed softly, "In fact, Jin Yang is also very bitter in his heart. He knows that he is a princess, but his fate cannot be controlled by himself..."

Dongfang Yu'er understood Sima Ao's difficulties, and said, "Okay! Don't talk about it, I will let her more in the future."

"My Yu'er understands righteousness."

"Who is your Yu'er? I hate it!"

Dongfang Yu'er rolled her eyes at Sima Ao, stepped forward quickly, and Sima Ao naturally chased after her.

"You are my Sima Ao's woman, of course my Yu'er!"

Dongfang Yu'er turned around and smiled evilly, "Really? Then you have to catch up with me."

After the words fell, Dongfang Yu'er uttered a decision and flew up.

Sima Ao who was behind smiled slightly, put away the Yulong fan, and also said a resolution, 'Chasing'.Whoosh... Sima Ao followed Dongfang Yu'er at a meteor-like speed.

When Dongfang Yuer turned around and saw that Sima Ao was about to catch up, Dongfang Yuer said another trick and speeded up... Just like that, the two of them just played and forgot their task of finding water.

I don't know how far or how long they flew, but the two of them were startled by the sound of a baby crying.

How can there be a baby crying in this gloomy wilderness?

Does the crying of a baby mean that there is someone nearby?

Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao walked towards the direction of the baby's crying with doubts.

After walking for about 300 meters, I saw a family in the valley from a distance, and the cry of the baby came from this family.

It's past the third watch, and the candlelight is still on in this family, so they haven't slept yet?
Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao walked towards this family, it was a wooden house.

Sima Ao was about to knock on the door, when a strange thing happened, the baby's crying stopped suddenly, and the lamp was blown out.

It seemed that the family didn't want to be disturbed, so they blew out the candles.

Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao had no choice but to leave, but within a few steps, the door opened and the candle was lit.

A woman stood straight at the door, staring at Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao with her eyes motionless, and asked, "Are you visiting late at night?"

Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao turned around and were taken aback.

The woman was wearing a long white plain dress, which was so long that it covered her feet, she had long straight hair, a pale face, and a red mole between her eyebrows.

"Oh, we passed Yinshan Mountain, we were thirsty and hungry, and we came to ask you for some water and food." Sima Ao replied politely.

"Then you all come in!" After saying that, the woman entered the room lightly.

Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao followed in horror, and the woman also entered the house.

As soon as she entered the room, Dongfang Yuer felt very gloomy, there was nothing in the floor, it was very cold and clean, there was only a green gauze bed, a stool, and a table.

On the table are a pot of tea, a pair of chopsticks, and a bunch of chrysanthemums that are about to wither.

"Do you live alone in the house?" Sima Ao asked after glancing at the room.

"Yes." The woman replied in a low voice.

"But I heard a baby crying in the room just now?" Dongfang Yu'er asked in disbelief.

The woman was silent for a long time before she said, "That's my child, he's sleeping now. Please keep your voice down, don't wake him up."

"Yes yes yes!" Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao replied in low voices.

"I have some tea and rough food here. If you are really thirsty, you can take some away when you are hungry." The woman said again.

"Thank you! I don't know how to call it?" Sima Ao bluntly poured the tea in the pot into the prepared gourd.

"My surname is Ji, you can call me Ji."

"Mr. Ji? Mrs. Ji, why do you live alone in the Yin Mountain?" Sima Ao asked puzzled.

"Yeah. The Yin Mountain is full of yin and ghosts everywhere. Are you not afraid of living here alone?" To be honest, Dongfang Yu'er was really worried for the thin and thin Ji.

"I...I want to stay here and wait for someone." While speaking, Ji's tears welled up, and she looked up at the full moon in the sky and the shadow of the dog in the full moon.

"Waiting for someone? Who are you waiting for? Are you waiting for the child's father? When did the child's father come back?" Dongfang Yuer asked repeatedly.

Ji did not answer Dongfang Yuer's question, but changed the subject.

"Oh, that's right! The rough food is in the pot, I'll go get you some." After speaking, Ji turned around and went to the kitchen to get food for Dongfang Yu'er and Sima Ao.

Seeing the green gauze tent fluttering, Dongfang Yu'er curiously walked towards the green gauze bed.

Looking through the green gauze curtain, one can vaguely see a baby lying on the bed.

Strange, the baby's face should be rosy, why is Ji's baby's face so pale?
