wait a minute

Chapter 39

"jijiji~~"

It was noon, and there were few people on Ranfang Street.

Ye Jingtang led the horse across the street, the white bird on the horse's back was leisurely eating the jerky he just bought.

At the entrance of Shuanggui Alley, Niaoniao couldn't wait to fly into the deep alley, along the way:
"jijijiji..."

"Are you back? Are you hungry?"

"Chichi..."

The voice of the young woman pampering came from behind the courtyard wall.

Ye Jingtang laughed when he heard the sound, and led the horse into the courtyard gate.

In the clean and tidy yard, there were some changes again. There was a row of small flowerpots under the courtyard wall, and there were green seedlings in them. I don't know what kind of flowers they are.

Outside the kitchen, the chopped firewood was neatly stacked, and even the bacon, ginger and garlic hanging under the windows were arranged in an orderly manner, so that the first time I entered the door, I felt that the whole yard was a bit brighter.

Ye Jingtang lived with his adoptive father since he was a child. Both of them are martial arts. The house is not messy, but freedom is inevitable.

Seeing this scene, I suddenly felt that it was indeed a very happy thing to have a good wife at home.

Luo Ning walked out of the kitchen wearing a long blue dress, carrying two dishes of side dishes, with a bird resting on her shoulder, her expression was as cold and demure as when she first met her, and she didn't look at Ye Jingtang, who was tethering a horse under the melon stand, but just greeted him plainly:

"Yun Li went out to play, come and eat."

Ye Jingtang felt that Luo Ning had suddenly gotten closer to him, and was a little surprised. He went into the kitchen and took the fried dishes, and went to the main room to put them down. He looked at Luo Ning who was arranging the dishes:

"Why is Xia Luo so gentle today?"

Luo Ning sat down on the left side of Ye Jingtang, opened the small wine jar, got two glasses of wine, and said in a homely tone:

"Although the relationship between you and me is not very good, I really have to thank you for taking care of me these days. I have been in Beijing for a while, and I didn't tell my family when I went out..."

Ye Jingtang paused when he took the wine glass, and took his hand back:

"Are you ready to go?"

"grumble?"

Niao Niao, who was eagerly looking at Xiao Chaorou, became anxious when she heard this, and raised her head to look pitifully at Sister Xiao Xigua.

Luo Ning hugged Niao Niao into her arms and rubbed her, her eyebrows slightly frowned:
"What do you mean by that? You still want to detain me in the capital and cook and wash for you all the time?"

That's not what Ye Jingtang meant. After thinking about it:
"Chou Tianhe hasn't been fished out yet, and I haven't figured out the way to Minglong Tu. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to leave now."

"There is something important at home, so I have to go back. I promised that as long as Qiu Tianhe is released from prison, I will teach you martial arts, and now I have taught you lightness kung fu. I don't want the Dragon Singing Picture either. I believe that you can keep your promise even if I am not here." promise……"

?

Ye Jingtang frowned and said, "Are you going to go or not?"

Luo Ning didn't think so in her heart, but her face was very serious:

"You save Qiu Tianhe, I'll teach you martial arts, it's something that was agreed in advance. I've already taught you lightness kung fu, and I don't even want the Dragon Crying Picture, so why come back?"

Ye Jingtang was stunned by this question, tapped his fingers on the table, and pondered for a while:

"When Qiu Tianhe was released from prison, he was also trapped in the capital. It's not a long-term solution. If I walk around the court more, maybe he can completely regain his freedom."

?

Luo Ning was just 'playing hard to get', saying she would go and never return, and then reluctantly agreed to come back in a few days, so that the little thief would not stalk her so hard that she would not let her go.

She really didn't expect that Ye Jingtang would make such a big promise in order to keep her, and she felt a little embarrassed.

But this thought must not be shown, otherwise the little thief in front of him will notice, make an extra step, and make some extravagant demands.

"There is an important matter at home, and someone has been sent to notify me, so I had no choice but to leave early. You... If you can help Qiu Tianhe completely regain his freedom, I will come back in a few days and teach you "The Fourteen Hands of Touching the Cloud". "

Ye Jingtang smiled when he heard this, and asked again:

"What's the matter at home? So anxious?"

"This is my private matter and has nothing to do with you."

"I'm just afraid that something will happen to you. You didn't tell me your identity, and when you ran outside, you were looking for a needle in a haystack. If you accidentally folded it outside, I still think you're not keeping your word if you don't return. Do you think that's the reason?"

Luo Ning remained silent for a while. It was hard to say that she was going to Shuiyun Jiantan to attend the old lady Zhou's birthday banquet. She just said:

"It's not a big deal, um... I'll go back and give you a gift, and I'll come back when I'm done. It's only about twenty days..."

"More than 20 days..."

Ye Jingtang has to go out with Sanniang in a few days, first go to Xiwang Town to kill a few people, and then go to Shuiyun Jiantan to kill a few people, and when he comes back, it will be about the middle of next month, and the time to go out will be about the same...

Ye Jingtang thought about it, nodded and said:
"Okay, anyway, I have to go out in a few days anyway. It will be difficult to get Qiu Tianhe out in a few days, why don't we come back and continue?"

?

Hearing this, Luo Ning thought that Ye Jingtang didn't trust her and wouldn't help if she wasn't around, so she said displeasedly:

"I said I would come back, and I will. What are you going to do?"

Ye Jingtang spread his hands slightly: "I am the bodyguard of Tianshui Bridge, not a ranger. I have to do things with my salary. I have to deal with some small business matters in a few days."

Seeing this, Luo Ning didn't ask any more questions. After thinking for a while, she picked up the jug on the table and poured wine for Ye Jingtang:

"You are very talented. Being a bodyguard, whether it's going to the officialdom or entering the rivers and lakes, isn't it better than doing hard work for others..."

With her hands on her water sleeves, her gentle gesture of pouring wine, coupled with her thoughtful words, she looks quite like a little daughter-in-law complaining about a man's lack of ambition.

Ye Jingtang picked up the chopsticks, looked at Luo Ning, and blinked.

Luo Ning noticed something, her eyes were slightly cold, she put down the jug, picked up the full wine glass, and gulped down.

?

Ye Jingtang was speechless for a moment, picked up the jug and poured himself a glass, and asked in a commonplace way:

"I even risked beheading to help you save people, but Lady Luo still refuses to let me know?"

Luo Ning covered her face with her sleeves, drank the spirits in one gulp, just as she put down the glass, Ye Jingtang poured wine for her, and she didn't refuse:

"I don't tell you the details, for my own reasons."

"What reason?"

Luo Ning didn't say it because Pingtianjiao was a traitor, and after Ye Jingtang found out, she had to choose between "official career" and "following her". If she chose an official career, the two would go their separate ways. It will be difficult.

Secondly, the leader of Pingtian is a woman. To be frank, I have to say all these things. Let Ye Jingtang know that she is just a clean and single big sister.

"Don't ask, I will explain it to you when Qiu Tianhe is out of danger."

"Can you get to the bottom of it in advance?"

Ye Jingtang picked up his wine glass and sighed softly: "Now I feel that I am morally corrupt. I am hooking up with a married woman, violating the word chivalry, and I can't sleep at night..."

Do you still know?

Luo Ning sat up straight, and said seriously: "Since this is the case, you should make up your mind and rein in the precipice..."

Ye Jingtang raised his hand slightly: "But the matter has already happened, I reined in the precipice, and I still made a mistake... I will cut the mess quickly, and I am afraid that Luo Nuxia will think that I am a heartless person."

Luo Ning laughed angrily, took a sip from the wine glass, and didn't bother to respond to the words that were thicker than the wall.

Ye Jingtang poured her another glass of wine:

"Marriage is something that can't be said for sure. I don't have a wife or concubine yet, but you also know that I am handsome and talented, and there are quite a few people staring at me. Prince Jing can open the door for me , don’t you think about the reason?”
