Rebirth of Noble Menjiao

"But it's just as beautiful there, but it's different from here. In the spring, rapeseed flowers bloom all over the mountain valleys, and there are azaleas all over the mountains and fields. At night, people sing and dance around the bonfire..." Xue Lin's voice was suppressed. In his throat, he spoke slowly, with such a calm and somewhat indifferent tone, but Mingyi heard the silent tenderness in those words, and in his mind, he sketched out the pictures in his words, virtual and real. , although it is not clear, it is indeed beautiful.

But when Xue Lin finished speaking, he suddenly paused. Mingyi turned to look at him, "What else?"

His stern profile seemed to tense up for a moment, as if the moment of softness just now was just Mingyi's illusion. "No more. I was young at the time and couldn't remember much of it. Later, when I moved around, there were times when I couldn't remember things."

Mingyi looked at him with a thousand thoughts in her eyes, but she didn't say anything else.

"Do you still want to go forward?" Xue Lin pointed forward with his whip.

Today's beautiful scenery really made Mingyi feel a little fascinated, but she still hesitated, "Is it okay?" They didn't really go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers.

"We can get to Mali City tomorrow. There is no need to hurry today. There is a tribe ahead. We can rest there tonight." Xue Lin's voice was flat.

Mingyi's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Can you?" She had been busy traveling from Wangjing to Beiguan. Lin Dahu was worried about her safety and would not let her move around at will. She also didn't want to cause trouble to others. .

When she arrived in Beiguan City, she was satisfied to be able to leave the city occasionally and walk around the city gate, even if she didn't leave the gate. This time she was able to follow him to Jizhou. Although she had a mission, she cherished it. She didn't expect that she would be able to Mingyi really couldn't think of such a good thing and couldn't believe it.

Xue Lin glanced at the girl's eyes that were lit up with excitement, and nodded her head slightly, "Of course, there is a friend of mine in that tribe, and I can just go and meet him." Xue Lin said while holding the reins of the horse Shake lightly and drive the horse forward.

Mingyi asked while riding her horse to follow him, "What about Yang Li and the others?"

"I left a mark and they will find it later."

"Oh!" Mingyi responded and walked side by side with him, the joyful smile on her face spreading all the way to her eyes.

After walking for another ten miles, Mingyi finally saw the tribe Xue Lin talked about. White tents were scattered in the green grassland. Distant mountains, clear streams, and herds of cattle and sheep. If you get closer, you can see them. The children who were running back and forth, seeing outsiders coming, ran away with a whoop, then hid not far away, quietly looking around curiously.

Mingyi followed Xue Lin into the tribe and walked for a while before stopping in front of a tent near the river.

By the river, there was a man brushing his horse. When he heard the noise, he turned around and looked over. When he saw Xue Lin, he was stunned at first, and then a joyful smile spread on his face, "Old Xue! Hahaha!" while laughing, One side has already taken great strides.

Xue Lin jumped off the horse and turned around to meet the man who was striding over. The two of them hugged each other. A rare smile appeared on Xue Lin's face, a truly cheerful one, "Lao Luo, don't come here." Are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" The man named Lao Luo laughed and patted Xue Lin's shoulders and back again and again. The force made Mingyi feel pain. She raised her eyes and heard the movement from A woman came out of the tent and nodded gently as a greeting.

"Why didn't you tell me first that you were coming? I knew you were coming, so I had to prepare two jars of good wine for you, so we couldn't get drunk before we returned!" Lao Luo said with a smile.

"Your home-brewed kumiss is very good. You can drink a little, but don't drink too much. I have something to go to Mali City, so I just passed by here and came to see you." Xue Lin replied with a chuckle. Turning around, he looked at the girl with a bright smile. Lao Luo followed his gaze and looked over, and then he saw that the person who came with him was actually a girl. After a moment of surprise, his eyes lit up, he looked at Xue Lin with some interest, and gave him a wink to indicate Let him introduce who the girl is.

"Madam, this is my former brother in the Anxi Army, Luo Xiang!" Xue Lin seemed not to see his eyes, but said to Mingyi in a calm tone.

"Madam? Is this your wife?" Luo Xiang looked at Mingyi in surprise and surprise, "I've heard that you got married a long time ago, and I wanted to know what kind of woman you are. I didn't expect to see you today. . This is a great event. No matter what, I have to have a good drink today and let’s go!” Luo Xiang patted Xue Lin on the shoulder and pushed him into the tent.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time. They are very happy. Don't mind." The woman who came out of the tent had darker facial features than the Han people. She was wearing a dress with beautiful local colors. She spoke very authentic Chinese and could hardly hear anything. accent.

"I understand." Mingyi chuckled, looking at the backs of the two men walking and talking in front of her, her eyes fell on Luo Xiang's empty left arm, her expression dimmed.

Although she didn't say anything, Luo Xiang's woman seemed to have understood her doubts. She followed her gaze and looked at Luo Xiang's empty left sleeve, with a broad smile on her face, "Compared to his Many comrades have calculated that although he lost an arm, at least he is still alive."

Mingyi's heart shrank, sadness and bitterness welling up at the same time. When she turned around, what she saw was the woman's simple and pure smile, "My name is Nasha, and I am Luo Xiang's woman."

"My name is Mingyi." Mingyi curled her pink lips and answered softly.

"Go in! Ever since Xiangzi heard that old Xue was getting married, he has been saying from time to time that since you are here today, I must entertain you well."

This tribe is called Yaser, and it is considered a relatively stable tribe in Anxi. Because the Songling Plain where they are located is rich in water and grass, they do not need to go further to graze their cattle. Therefore, their village is in this area all year round, even Their village also built an ancestral hall made of earth and stone according to Han customs, so that Xue Lin could find them easily.

There are mixed Han and Han people living in the village, so there are also many people of mixed Han and Han descent. Nasha is one of them, and of course, so is her and Luo Xiang's daughter Ajia.

Mingyi's heart softened when she looked at the little girl who was holding Nasha's waist tightly with her small hands and hiding shyly behind Nasha. However, she couldn't help being curious and secretly looking at her.

The little girl's skin was not fair, but her eyes were like black grapes, pure and moving. When Mingyi looked at her, she suddenly shrank back behind her Ana like a frightened deer. After a moment, she looked at her again. Quietly poked his head out.

So cute! Mingyi couldn't help but smile and soften her face, waved to her gently, and showed off a string of colorful beads in her hand. She bought them casually while shopping in Beiguan City. They were not worth a few bucks, but the color Beautiful, delicate and cute.

"Go! Ana told you, this is Uncle Xue's aunt, don't be afraid!" Nasha patted Ajia's head gently, and Mingyi looked at her with a soft smile again.

Ajia finally slowly walked out from behind her Ana. Mingyi came closer and handed the colorful beads in her hand to Ajia, "I didn't know that I would see you, so I didn't prepare anything for you. This is a gift." for you."

Ajia looked at the string of colorful beads, her black grape-like eyes sparkling with joy, but she still didn't reach out to take them. Instead, she turned to look at Nasha. She was not happy until she saw Nasha nodded. He took the string of colored beads and looked at it carefully, smiling brightly, "I like it, thank you!"
