girl riding a horse

Chapter 261
Xie Yuan was wrapped in a red cloak, walked through the long corridor to the front yard.

The guards who stood aside after listening to the order to stop her, looked at Xie Yuan's stern demeanor, and then at Mrs. Xie standing in front of the house, hesitated and never stepped forward.

Madam Xie had tears in her eyes, after all, she did not order to stop her.

She remembered when Xie Yuan was young, she remembered how she climbed up to the top, and a bunch of people wanted to catch her, making the yard full of chaos.

At that time, I was afraid that she would run away and get hurt.Later, as if reflecting their premonition, she really ran away from home and ran away alone.

She knew in her heart that Xie Yuan was an unstoppable person.

In addition, now that she has grown into an adult, and has her own world outside, and is no longer a child who needs the protection of her parents, she can't be more trapped.

At this moment, trying to trap her forcefully... will only push her further and further away...

Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Yuan's back, and finally took two steps forward, and shouted at her with tears in her eyes:
"A Yuan, be careful, come back if you can't, no matter what, Mom and Dad will help you!"

Xie Yuan just walked to the corner of the corridor, stopped, and the red cloak on her body swung forward. She turned sideways and looked at her mother, pursed her lips, and comforted her in a soft tone for a long time:

"Got it... Mom, I understand that you are doing it for my own good, and I don't blame you."

When Mrs. Xie heard what Xie Yuan said, she was immediately overwhelmed with emotion, her eyes were bulging and she was about to walk over to hug her.

But Xie Yuan didn't wait for her, and turned the corner of the street neatly and left.

When passing the front yard, I was going to pass the gate of the side courtyard, and happened to meet some adults chasing a child out.

The child wasn't walking so steadily yet, but he ran very excitedly, laughing and rushing to Xie Yuan with his legs limp.

Then he raised his head, bit his little fist, and looked at Xie Yuan Shale curiously, showing a few new baby teeth.

Xie Yuan looked at him coldly and didn't move, as if he just stood here to express his disgust.

"Run slowly...don't..." The aunt who was chasing the child and the other women saw Xie Yuan, and they all froze quietly when they saw Xie Yuan.

Especially seeing Xie Yuan's cold look when he looked at the child with his red phoenix eyes.They couldn't help being silent, not daring to move.

Xie Yuan was at home when he was a child. Although he was naughty and active, he was still reasonable and warm.The servants in the house like to argue with her.

The current aunt is the little maid who took care of her in the past, and even chokes with Xie Yuan from time to time.

But since she came back after leaving home... Not only did she suddenly look like an adult, her temperament was quite different from before, cold and serious, even stern and murderous.

Now they no longer dare to say anything casually to Xie Yuan.

So a group of people just stood behind, watching Xie Yuan confront a little milk doll.After a long time, my aunt dared to go forward and hugged the child from Xie Yuan's feet with great difficulty.

Aunt knew that Xie Yuan had resented her a little since she took over as a concubine, and never gave her a good face, and she also knew why.

But she was many years older than Xie Yuan anyway, so she couldn't face her like a child, so she bit the bullet and said with a smile:

"A Yuan...you're back?" She bit her tongue in the middle of the sentence, because she realized that Xie Yuan came back yesterday, and it's inappropriate to say this now, so she asked bluntly:
"……Got to go?"

A Yuan...you're back...leaving?

The mother-in-law who took care of the child was behind her, and she couldn't help covering her face after hearing what she said... This was too embarrassing.

Xie Yuan was finally attracted to his attention, and moved his gaze to his aunt's face, looking at her coldly, but did not speak.

The aunt licked her lips in embarrassment, subconsciously shook the child in her arms, and taught the child to say:

"Call me sister..."

She stuttered again, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and suddenly remembered that Xie Yuan never liked being called a girl, so she changed her mouth halfway, "Brother."

The child kept looking at Xie Yuan intently, full of curiosity, and after hearing this, he shouted excitedly:
"elder brother!"

After Xie Yuan heard the call of brother, although she knew in her heart that it was my aunt who deliberately pleased her, she still couldn't help but tugged at the corner of her mouth, and the child instantly became more pleasing to the eye.

"Hmm..." Xie Yuan replied with a straight face, and walked away.

She raised the hood of the cloak to cover her head, and walked quickly, carrying the wind.

If she stayed for a while longer, people would definitely see her silly smile.

How silly... are you so happy because someone called you brother on purpose?
Xie Yuan blamed himself so much in his heart, but he still couldn't help laughing.

It wasn't until she left the courtyard, rode a horse across the river in front of the house, and turned to look at her own courtyard, that her smile gradually disappeared and suddenly turned into sadness.

She hadn't cried for a long time, and tears rolled down from her eyes that were still smiling just now. She pursed her lips, with sad eyes and eyebrows, and said in her heart:
"It would be great if I were really an older brother."

Tears ran down his cheeks, his eyes were hot, and his throat hurt.She quickly raised her hand to wipe the tears off her face.

Taking a deep breath, suppressing his weakness and regretful pain, he pulled the rein neatly, and galloped towards the camp.

Linjiang City is on the border between the two countries, and her father is the sheriff, so it is convenient to pass the border, and she will not be interrogated and questioned if she holds a warrant.

Xie Yuan has never worried about passing the border... But today, when she was about to walk to the border, she suddenly found that it was unusual for the two of them to be following her all the time.

Although this road is a major road, people who want to cross the border all go here, and it is not unusual to have people who go the same way.

But Xie Yuan drove so fast along the way, and the speed of riding was so fast, it should be difficult for ordinary people to catch up with her.

What's more, if she stops, they will stop, if she leaves, they will also leave?
Xie Yuan's cloak covered most of her face, she slowed down the horse, turned her head slightly and looked back, sure enough, the speed of the two people in the distance also slowed down.

Xie Yuan thought for a moment, then suddenly kicked the horse's belly, pulled the reins to speed up, and then slid into the rugged mountain forest next to him.

The two people who followed her saw that Xie Yuan suddenly left the main road on his horse, one man and one horse ran fast under the cover of the woods, they were startled and shouted:
"Okay...he's going to escape!"

After saying that, he didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly urged the horse to turn into the woods and followed.
