Chapter 827 Back home

"Your Highness, I'm going to call for help if you do this."

"Don't worry, no one will come, and the louder you shout, the better."

"What are you going to do? Oh, stop. I'm really going to scream."

"Scream~~"

"What on earth are you going to do? Why are you doing this all of a sudden?"

"It must be because you're cute."

"Don't come over here!"

……

In the room, Su Wan'er was held in Xia Tingyu's arms. Xia Tingyu looked at the somewhat flustered Su Wan'er with his foxy eyes, with a teasing look on his face. He felt that this young lady of the Su family was more interesting than Da Mengzi.

Although Su Wan'er is quite capable.

But Xia Tingyu was already a seventh-rank swordsman after all, so how could Su Wan'er possibly resist at that moment?

Wu Daming watched this scene, covering his eyes with his hands, and saw through his fingers how Sister Tingyu suddenly treated Wan'er like this.

Originally, we had agreed to just come here to take a look after dinner, but unexpectedly, after arriving at the bed, Sister Tingyu suddenly put Wan'er on the bed.

Then this is what started to happen.

This happened very suddenly, and this style is totally unlike Sister Tingyu's usual style. I don't know what she is going to do.
But just when Wu Daming was thinking about saying something to stop Xia Tingyu, he suddenly seemed to hear a sigh.

I couldn't help but look out the window
Look at this.
Wu Daming took a deep breath and his eyes widened.

dirty stuff!
Especially when seeing that dirty guy looking at Xia Tingyu and Su Wan'er.

With trembling lips, he turned his head and looked at Xia Tingyu: "Sister, sister"

The voice was hoarse. The little girl was very scared. Her voice was very small and even sounded like crying, but this voice could never surpass Su Wan'er's.

Xia Tingyu didn't hear anything either.

So Da Mengzi couldn't help but look back.

But this turn
Then she saw the dirty thing standing at the window, looking at her!
Wu Daming blinked.

looking into each other's eyes
Looking at the way the old woman looked at him, Wu Daming felt really spicy!
And then the next moment.
boom!
Wu Daming was so frightened that he fainted on the ground.

Xia Tingyu originally just wanted to have some fun with Su Wan'er. He originally just wanted to sleep with Su Wan'er tonight to see if he could meet Tai Nai.

But at that moment, the two of them understood the noise, looked back, and saw Wu Daming lying on the ground.

Without saying a word, he hurried over.

"Da Meng!" Xia Tingyu spoke immediately.

Su Wan'er seemed to sense something and turned her head to look towards the window, but there was no one there.

Xia Tingyu felt nothing and picked up Wu Daming and went out to find a doctor. Although he was wondering what had happened suddenly, now was not the time to think about it.

Su Wan'er followed closely behind, but she always felt something was wrong. When she left Yimeiyuan, she looked back at the yard.

But he didn't think about it too much, and just ran quickly to find his uncle and others.

The moon was bright in the sky, and the moonlight filled the world, as if it were a glass world. The night air was fresh. Grandma turned around and left Yimei Courtyard, thinking in her heart, "It's exactly the same as Su Changan's cowardly and timid personality!"

……

What happened at the Su Mansion last night, Su Changan, who was far away in Jizhou, naturally had no idea.

A drizzle came to Jizhou without any warning this morning, but it came and went quickly, leaving the world brand new after the rain.

After Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang got up, they originally planned to go see Xu Xia.

But I learned that Xu Xia went out when it was raining in the morning, saying that he wanted to see the mountain scenery, city scenery and rain scenery of Jizhou.

Su Changan was helpless.

But I understand.

After all, Xu Xia didn't know they were coming. It was Su Changan who didn't let Du Yu inform Xu Xia because he was afraid that Xu Xia would come to meet them after knowing it.

After something like that happened, especially knowing that Xu Xia himself was seriously injured, there was no reason to let anyone meet them.

But the heart is good.

Afraid that Xu Xia would get implicated.

As a result, you ran away with your injured body.

But the two of them smiled helplessly. Xu Xia was just like that. He loved the scenery and was obsessed with observing these things. Besides, it was a good thing that he could still do this even after being injured. It was better than not being able to go anywhere and having to lie in bed.

Not seeing Xu Xia, Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang naturally decided to go to Laohuai Village as originally planned.

There weren't many people going, so I only brought Ruyu and Maomao.

One reason is to ask the village elders about his grandfather.

Another one, homesick.

There is no need for so many people to go, I just want to take my wife home.

Before going out, Su Changan, Xia Fengxiang and the other three changed into ordinary people's clothes. It wasn't that the clothes were particularly tattered, just made of ordinary material.

Before Ruyu and Maomao came over, Xia Fengxiang originally wanted to let Su Changan cut his hair into a bun and change into men's clothes.

Su Changan shook his head to indicate that it was not necessary, as he used to have messy hair like this at home. Then Su Changan called Maomao and asked her to prepare rouge, while he went to dig some soil.

Then he directed the cat to start applying some paint on his face.

It's not that it was done in a very deliberate way, I just added some spots on the face, drew some red dots, and made a red mark on the cheek, which looks like a birthmark.

The facial features were still standard and exceptionally delicate, but the face was somewhat unsightly.

If you are not familiar with Su Changan, you really can't recognize him at first glance. "Wouldn't it be better to wear a veil? And how can those elders you mentioned recognize you if you do this?" Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan like this, a little confused, but still reached out to help Su Changan tidy up his clothes.

Yan Ruyu was also puzzled.

Ruyu knew Su Changan's identity from the beginning, so she had no doubts about going to the village, but when she saw the Queen acting like this, she became curious.

Su Changan looked at himself in the mirror and said, "If I didn't put on makeup like this, no one would recognize me."

This time, Maomao also looked up at Su Changan.

Go home and put on makeup?

Su Changan smiled, rubbed the mud on his hands, and gently touched his neck, making his originally fair skin a little dirty.

While doing it, Su Changan said: "My mother did it for me to protect me."

Su Changan went on to say: "My family is just a farmer and hunter in the village. We have no money or power. I look like this, which is not a good thing for my family."

Xia Fengxiang was stunned for a moment, then reacted suddenly.

For a poor family to have a person with outstanding appearance is not a blessing but a disaster.

Su Changan looked at his current appearance in the mirror, looked left and right, and it was the same as in his memory. At this point, whether it was memory fusion or some other way of saying it, Su Changan could no longer distinguish his past self from his past life self. But Su Changan was too lazy to dwell on it. After all, he was already Su Changan, so why bother about it?

Seeing that she was no different from her old self, and that she had changed a little in the past year and a half, she continued to use red rouge to deepen the birthmark on the side of her face, and then said, "My mother said that there was a girl in their village who was very beautiful, but because of this, she was targeted by human traffickers. One night, more than a dozen people took the girl away, and her parents were beaten when they resisted. Finally, her brother searched for a month and finally found her in a brothel in Yanzhou City. After reporting to the police, although the government intervened, the girl's face was bruised and she was dying. She was thrown into the black market by the brothel, neither human nor ghost. After she was brought back, the girl had gone crazy and kept scratching her face with her nails. Although my mother was not very beautiful, the girl was crazy and always told my mother not to be too beautiful, and it was better to be ugly."

"Mother saw this clearly, so when I was a child, she made me up like this, making me as ugly as possible. She didn't deal with me as neatly as she dealt with my brother. She just made me messy anyway."

At this point, Su Changan smiled, looked at Xia Fengxiang and said, "At that time, the neighbor's grandmother couldn't stand it anymore and scolded my mother for being biased. She also complained to my father and uncle. My mother didn't care, but my father didn't want to hear my mother being scolded. In the end, he said he would take care of it for me. But I was too naughty and made myself like this. After a long time, the villagers found out that it was really like this. Haha, in fact, it was my father who asked me to act on purpose."

"As time went by, people in the village had never really seen what I looked like, so they all thought I was like this. My mother was afraid that I wouldn't understand, so when I grew up, she took me and my brother back to her parents' home and took us to see that woman. So after that, my face has always been like this. When we were fleeing, there was no way, so my mother used mud and juice from grass and leaves to smear on my face, and sometimes she would smear blood on it."

When he said this, Su Changan looked at Maomao and said, "Isn't it completely different from the beautiful look it had before?"

Before letting it go, the cat will definitely scold you mercilessly.

But at the moment, looking at Su Changan, Maomao nodded: "It's ugly."

Su Changan smiled and looked at Su Changan: "Let's go, it's good this way. Besides, my mother always let me wear whatever I want and my hair is like this, so there's no need to wear men's clothes or fix my hair. Everyone in the village knows that I'm a man."

Xia Fengxiang frowned as he looked at Su Changan, but he was calm and sat in Su Changan's seat: "Then put on makeup for me too."

Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang: "You don't need it."

Xia Fengxiang rolled his eyes at Su Changan: "You went out to escape, and you still look like this. What will your villagers think if you bring back a beautiful wife like me? So you must put on some makeup for me. Otherwise, who would believe that you can marry a wife as good as me?"

Su Changan was about to say something but stopped himself. He just felt that this girl was starting to imitate him!
But he didn't dare say it out loud, mainly because Xia Fengxiang's hand was on his leg, and he would immediately attack anyone who dared to say something inappropriate.

Maomao looked at Xia Fengxiang: "I'll go get some more of this medicine."

Then he took Yan Ruyu and went together.

Yan Ruyu stood there in a daze, looking at Su Changan in confusion, then at Xia Fengxiang, and her face, which was not very bright to begin with, was now filled with confusion.

When being dragged away by Maomao, Yan Ruyu was also a little confused, but standing at the door, she looked back at Su Changan, then sideways at Maomao: "The Queen said that everyone in the village knows that he is a man?"

Maomao said seriously: "He is a woman!"

After saying that, he emphasized again: "Female!!"

Yan Ruyu frowned, but immediately seemed to realize something and looked at Maomao: "In order to conceal it, your mother deliberately let you tell outsiders that it's a boy?"

Maomao was stunned when he heard this, and gave Yan Ruyu a thumbs up: "Yes! Think like this! He must be a woman!"

Yan Ruyu nodded, but when she looked back at Su Changan, she sighed in her heart. She had never experienced that kind of life, but she felt that the Empress had had a very difficult life since she was a child.

She is obviously a girl, but she can only be described as a boy to others.

Laohuai Village is outside Jizhou City, which is actually not very far away. If everything goes well by horse carriage, we can arrive in less than half a day. If we go faster, we can arrive in about two hours.

In fact, spring plowing is coming to an end. Thanks to Du Yu's best efforts to find people to come, otherwise, so much farmland would be abandoned, and many fields would not produce grain this year.

Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang sat in the carriage, while Maomao and Ruyu drove the car.

Su Changan clenched his fists as he lifted the curtain to look at the increasingly familiar scenery outside. To be honest, he was a little nervous, but looking at the fields outside and the farmers busy working in the fields,
For no reason, I recalled my memory of when I escaped from the village, the fields were full of corpses.

Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan, reached out and grabbed his hand, but didn't say anything, just leaned on Su Changan's shoulder.

Although Xia Fengxiang's face was not as heavily pockmarked as Su Changan's, he still had some pockmarks on it. He was not trying to make himself look ugly on purpose, but just made it look very natural.

Not only Laohuai Village, but several villages outside Jizhou City were also specially renovated when Du Yu reported to Xia Fengxiang yesterday.

For example, when the people from Mobei left, they destroyed many irrigation canals for fertile fields, so Du Yu simply found some capable officials in Jizhou who were good at this and spent more than a month studying it, and finally repaired and improved it.

So we have the scene that now, wherever we look, there are canals and water in the fertile fields.

All the money spent came from the aristocratic families that Xia Fengxiang had confiscated.

In fact, Xia Fengxiang and Su Changan knew all these things.

Moreover, regarding the matter of using the money to build these things, some pedantic censors in the capital even impeached Du Yu, saying that Du Yu took the money and did not buy food, clothing and other daily necessities for the disaster-stricken people, but used it to build water conservancy projects. This would be fine on normal days, but now that Yan was hit by a disaster, there was no need for these.

Xia Fengxiang said at the time, "He made these people earn money."

Some censors still didn't understand.

Some people even came to Su Changan, wanting him to advise His Majesty not to trust Du Yu so much and hand over such a large sum of money to Du Yu alone.

Su Changan said to the censor, "If you don't work, you don't eat. Lord Du took the money as wages, built a large-scale project to recruit those people who want to live a good life to work, let them rebuild their hometown with their own hands, and at the same time give these silver coins to them as wages. Isn't this better than giving the money directly to those people?"

Su Changan explained it thoroughly, and the censor understood it all at once.

Horse-drawn carriages were traveling on the official road, and there were many pedestrians and vendors on the road. Jizhou was full of vitality like mushrooms after a spring rain.

And Su Changan saw from afar the highest mountain among all the mountains.

Su Changan no longer sat in the car, but lifted the curtain, stood on the frame, looked at the small village at the foot of the mountain, holding his wife's hand. For some reason, he had a lot of emotions on the way here, but when he saw this, he didn't feel the slightest bit of homesickness.

I just looked at the mountains and the village, and whispered softly: "Dad, Mom, Uncle, Brother, I'm home."
