girl riding a horse

Chapter 46 guard against him.

Shen Liuzhen smiled at him and said, "Zhou Tuzi, there are big things to do from today on, let's go out to play after class, let's go."

After finishing speaking, he passed in front of him and walked out the door.

Zhou Tuzi was stunned, and asked, "What's the big deal, Mr. Sir? Can I go home?" Before he finished speaking, he was dragged away by the collar by a passing soldier.

When he went out, he saw Xie Yuan was waiting outside on his horse. He brought many people with him, and brought some tools such as hammers and shovels.

Xie Yuan was full of energy, with a heroic demeanor, turned his body to the door of Shen's house, and when he saw Shen Liuzhen, he said:
"I knew you had to be lazy again. If you dawdled any longer, I'd pour cold water on your bed again."

Shen Liuzhen sighed, but he yawned before he finished his sigh. He lazily... No, he got on the horse with a gentlemanly demeanor, and said:
"I already had a premonition that you were going to pour cold water on me, so why didn't you just get up?...Let's go."

Zhou Tuzi couldn't get an answer on what they were going to do, and was looking back and forth, when he met Xie Yuan's condensed and disgusted eyes.

Zhou Baldzi shivered subconsciously, and cursed in his heart: Why does this kid hold grudges so much?How many days has he been with the smiling face, the skin on his face is almost falling off from the smile, so he doesn't give a good face...

"I have been idle for many days. Today is the time to use you. It depends on whether you will listen to me or not." Xie Yuan rode on the horse and looked at him.

"Listen, let's do whatever Xie Langjun asks, absolutely no complaints."

"That's good." Xie Yuan snorted noncommittally, turned around and pulled the reins, and led the team ahead.

Outside the city gate...

Zhou Tuzi took a shovel and sweated profusely to dig the foundation.Behind him are the younger brothers who have just been released... and other younger brothers who have never been in before...

It was already morning, and the sun was getting stronger and stronger. He stuck the shovel into the ground under his feet, turned his head and looked at the people behind him, and they could see the repressed dissatisfaction in each other's eyes.

But dare not attack.

The people in the refugee camp, adults and children, were all mobilized. They first demolished the simple shacks, and then began to dig the foundations according to the craftsmen's instructions.

These people were assigned to the most difficult to dig stone stalls by that brat Xie Yuan with a finger.

Of course, he was also doing it himself, with quick hands and feet, he didn't look like a kid in his teens at all.

What did he not understand at this time, Xie Yuan was not an ignorant and domineering demon king.

If it was really that kind of tyrannical bully, who would come to such a place to do thankless things?
In fact, he just hated him and wanted to kill him all the time.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tuzi subconsciously raised his hand to touch his ear.But the left ear had already been chopped off by Xie Yuan, and now he was sweating, and the bloody wound that had settled was faintly smeared with pink blood.

He lowered his head and quickly glanced at Xie Yuan who was picking up rocks in front of him. With a flash of resentment, he picked up the shovel, shoveled and dug the soil.

When Shen Liuzhen came from the front, he happened to see this scene in his eyes. He pretended not to see anything, walked up to Xie Yuan, handed her a white scarf and said:
"Wipe off your sweat, let's take a rest, and talk about it after noon."

As he spoke, he smiled kindly at Baldy Zhou who raised his head.

Xie Yuanqian was dizzy, and when he closed his eyes, he felt that his eyes were full of stones.

Standing in the dug foundation ditch, she reached out and took the white scarf without raising her head, and said:

"Hurry up, when will the grinding and chirping be finished."

As he spoke, he bent down again to carry it.

Shen Liuzhen squatted on the shore, grabbing the clothes on her shoulders, trying to stop her, but was almost dragged off by Xie Yuan's turning around.

It was Xie Yuan who quickly supported it so that it didn't fall off.She entrusted Shen Liuzhen back, frowned and asked:
"You don't want to be your supervisor, what kind of trouble are you making?"

Shen Liuzhen looked at the people around him, and said with some embarrassment:
"You are always working so hard, but if you can move, you have to see if the people around you can move. The people in the refugee camp can't get enough to eat. Let them have a rest."

Only then did Xie Yuan look up and look around, and when he turned around, he saw Zhou Tuzi's resentful face again. After staring back in disgust, he grabbed Shen Liuzhen's hand and jumped up, agreeing to rest.

It was only then that Shen Liuzhen made a sound, and said to everyone with a smile:

"Uncles, take a rest, drink some water and rest, and have lunch later."

Then everyone stopped and went to find a place to rest.

Shen Liuzhen walked beside Xie Yuan, touched her shoulder, and whispered:

"Beware of Baldy Zhou, you cut off one of his ears, he must have this hatred in his heart."

After listening, Xie Yuan wiped the sweat off his neck with a white scarf, sneered and said:

"Hmph... It would be better if he had some bad intentions. I don't like him, and Zhengchou has no reason to care about him!"

Seeing that she didn't take it seriously, Shen Liuzhen was speechless.But after thinking about it, it's fine for her to know, she won't accidentally fall for the truth, so she put this matter behind her.

The two went to the pile of children brought by Guan Yifei together.Their own small house was also demolished, and they demolished it by themselves.

But a group of people still guarded the original open space, looking at the place behind them, they seemed a little reluctant.

Guan Yifei didn't get up when he saw them coming, but just sat there and watched them.

Xie Yuan sat down beside them again like that day, and asked:

"There will be a new house to live in soon, why are you still frowning?"

Guan Yifei was expressionless, and looked at Xie Yuan for a while before saying, "I don't think this is true, and I feel uneasy."

Shen Liuzhen also sat down beside Xie Yuan. Hearing this, he almost squatted there, couldn't help laughing, and asked: "If this is not true, what is true?"

Guan Yifei looked at the sky and thought for a while, and said, "It's true that you don't eat your last meal, that you are worried and afraid that no one will care about you."

...a moment of silence.

Xie Yuan suddenly asked: "I heard from you that day that your father was a soldier from the Southern Dynasty, and your mother was... from Beiyi, right? They..."

Guan Yifei suddenly laughed, but with a forced smile.His facial features are obviously deeper than those of the Central Plains people, and there are faint tears in his eyes. He pretends to be strong and asks:

"How old are you this year?"

"Ten years old..." Xie Yuan said.

"Well, my parents died when I was ten years old... Time flies so slowly. I feel that I have lived a few years longer than the previous ten years, but I haven't grown into an adult yet." Wu Yifei said with emotion Say.

"How...how did they die? Zhan Luan?" Xie Yuan asked.

"No... This story is a bit long, I'm afraid the nobles won't like it."

Another moment of silence.

Xie Yuan thought it was probably because he didn't want to talk about these sad things, so he didn't say anything.

At this time, Shen Liuzhen suddenly pretended to be relaxed and said:

"My mother died of dystocia when I was born. I don't even have a portrait. I don't know what she looks like."
