Li Jing helped Cui Yuexi get off the carriage, Liu Chengde and Li Yan couldn't help but looked at her happily and asked.

"Sister-in-law Si, guess what surprise we have prepared for you?" Li Yan is no longer the same as when he just came back, and he is cheerful and enthusiastic now, completely like a child.

Cui Yuexi saw that Liu Chengde was equally excited, obviously the two of them specially prepared some strange things for her.

"Let me guess, what can there be in this mountain, but rare beasts, have you found some bear cubs, wolf cubs?"

On the way here, the two of them were arguing to catch the bear cubs or wolf cubs and bring them back to raise, saying that it would be very prestigious to lead them out in the future.

"No, you have to guess carefully, but you are kind of right, that thing was found in the mountains and forests."

Liu Chengde added, the anxious Cui Yuexi guessed.

Cui Yuexi frowned and thought, but she really couldn't figure it out, "Could it be some kind of rare fruit?"

Li Yan nodded, "Indeed, you guessed it."

Under Li Yan's gesture, Liu Chengde took out a large plate of bright red strawberries, each of which was plump and very pleasing to the eye.

Cui Yuexi didn't expect to be able to eat strawberries at this time, and couldn't help but smile.

Yesterday, when Li Yan and Liu Chengde were chasing the man in black, they found a hot spring. They didn't pay attention to it at the time, but when the sky was getting dark, they went there together. They didn't expect an unexpected harvest. The temperature on the edge of the hot spring pool was very high. High, some wild strawberries grow very luxuriantly, and the strawberries that should have been available in midsummer matured ahead of schedule when the temperature was right.

When Li Yan and Liu Chengde saw the first one, they thought of picking some for Cui Yuexi to taste.

Cui Yuexi picked up one and put it in her mouth, the strong strawberry flavor spread in her mouth, this strawberry was extra sweet.

"I wanted to eat strawberries a long time ago, I thought I would have to wait for more than a month, but I was late by mistake.

"Sister-in-law Si, you can eat more if you like. There are still a lot over there. When we go back, we will pick some for you."

Li Yan coaxed Cui Yuexi, as long as she was happy, she could ask him to do anything.

It is said that sister-in-law Zhang is like a mother, and it stands to reason that the queen is Li Yan's eldest sister-in-law, but Li Yan and the queen have met only a handful of times, and they are still relatively close to Cui Yuexi.

Cui Yuexi picked up two strawberries and handed them to Li Yan and Liu Chengde's mouths. Liu Chengde happily ate them, but Li Yan blushed instantly.

Under Liu Chengde's urging, he opened his mouth to eat.

"Thank you Sisao, these strawberries are really sweet."

Li Jing could tell that Li Yan's liking for Cui Yuexi was not between a man and a woman, but a kind of family affection. He wanted to get close to Cui Yuexi, but due to his status as a foreigner, he always kept a certain distance. The distance is not as comfortable as Liu Chengde.

Li Jing looked at Li Yan like this, and felt a little distressed in his heart.

Compared with Cui Yuexi, he is not easy to get close to. In addition, Cui Yuexi always takes care of Liu Chengde meticulously, and getting along with each other gradually makes him forget the pain he has experienced.

Maybe by Cui Yuexi's side, he can be a child at ease, that's why he relies on Cui Yuexi so much.

Even though Li Jing felt sorry for Li Yan, men's expressions were not as delicate as those of women's. What's more, Li Yan was still a little afraid of him, so naturally he wouldn't act so close to him.

"Yes, you eat too. Don't keep everything for me. The seventh brother and the younger brother will definitely love their daughter-in-law in the future. Whoever marries you will be considered lucky."

Cui Yuexi said with a smile, Li Yan couldn't help but blush.

"Sister-in-law four, I don't want to marry a wife. No one is better than sister-in-law four." In Li Yan's heart, apart from Princess Changle who rescued him from danger, the best woman in the world is Cui Yuexi.

After his most helpless and fragile incident, she gave him infinite warmth and pulled him back from the cliff of despair.

During that period of time, his life was really worse than death, and Cui Yuexi, like the soft spring rain that moistened everything, warmed him little by little, and pulled him out of the quagmire of pain.

Cui Yuexi smiled lightly, she did not correct Li Yan's words, after all, it was her honor to be the most important person in other people's hearts.

But Li Yan's feelings for her were just dependence. After losing everything, there was a warm person he could rely on.

People say that home is a shelter from the wind, but Li Yan has nothing left, and Li Jing doesn't know how to get along with him. They only give him material warmth, but what really touches people's hearts is not the gold and silver treasures. But sincere feelings.

"Okay, don't be silly anymore, after breakfast, let's go for a walk."

When Cui Yuexi opened his mouth to suggest, Li Yan and Liu Chengde realized that there was one more important thing that they hadn't brought up.

"Sister-in-law Si, Chengde and I found a very good thing last night, you haven't guessed it yet."

Li Yan's eyes were filled with anticipation, waiting for Cui Yuexi to continue asking him, Cui Yuexi looked into his shining eyes and smiled to cooperate.

"What else, I am very happy to be able to eat strawberries that I have been thinking about for a long time in this season. What surprises have you prepared for me?"

Li Yan and Liu Chengde looked at each other, and then took out the seventh-grade ginseng.

Although Cui Yuexi didn't understand Chinese herbal medicine, the huge ginseng was the biggest ginseng she had ever seen. He inadvertently saw the bloodshot fingers of Li Yan and Liu Chengde, and immediately reached out to grab Li Yan's hand.

"Seventh brother, didn't you hurt your hand while digging ginseng?" Cui Yuexi asked in a deep voice, with distress in her voice.

"No, when Chengde and I were digging ginseng last night, we suddenly heard that someone was going to hurt you. We both heard that someone saw that we were crowded and went back to rescue soldiers. The two of us went to intercept that person. We were injured during the fight.

Fourth sister-in-law, I'm fine, don't worry, Chengde is not injured. "

Li Yan didn't want Cui Yuexi to blame himself, so he said this. The roots of life are very thin. If you dig them with a dagger, it is easy to cut off the roots. He dug them out bit by bit with his hands. It is the roots, and its medicinal value cannot be compared with many things combined.

"Seventh brother, you are so kind to me, how can I repay you in the future."

Cui Yuexi hugged Li Yan with a smile, and the latter's face immediately turned redder. Cui Yuexi's embrace was very warm, with a faint fragrance, just like the mother in his childhood fantasy, which made him feel at ease and at ease.

"Fourth sister-in-law, as long as you don't dislike me."

Li Yan's voice was very small, but was heard by Cui Yuexi. Cui Yuexi patted his back lightly. She knew very well that children who have experienced major changes are always fragile in their hearts. They long for the warmth of family, but many People do not get the attention of their families and have been ignored.
