Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 114
"You can't go back! Do you know that once you are caught, you will die!" Ye Jigang rushed up and grabbed his hand again.

"I have to go back," Ye Jiwu said firmly, "I want to take my mother away! I can't let my mother live that kind of hard life again!"

Ye Jigang sighed, and said rationally: "Do you think you can lead a good life with your mother? Just with this 500 taels of silver? Wake up, you are a fugitive now!"

"But I take good care of my mother! Even if I don't have to eat, I will have my mother to eat!" Ye Jiwu pointed to his chest.

"When the time comes, you and your mother will be displaced, do you think your mother will be able to live a better life than now? You are hiding everywhere, and the whole Guazhou is full of your wanted images. Your mother is weak and sick, do you think she can bear it? You are killing mother! If you and mother are caught together, mother will go to jail even if she is harboring fugitives! Do you know that if you are in prison!" Ye Jigang grabbed his shoulder and shook it vigorously a few times.

Ye Jiwu hesitated for a moment, his expression relaxed a little.

"Listen to me? Huh? Brother won't hurt you."

"I'm worried about my mother." Ye Jigang closed his eyes and said in a low voice.

"I will take good care of my mother, I swear!" Ye Jigang said solemnly.

"How can I trust you?"

Ye Jigang pursed his lips, wanting to swear, but he didn't dare to swear too viciously.

"You swear, if you break your oath, you will be struck by lightning!" Ye Jiwu said viciously.

"Okay!" Ye Jigang had no choice but to bear the fear and bite the bullet in order to reassure his younger brother, "The emperor is above, and the earth is below. I, Ye Jiwu, swear here that from now on, I will take good care of my mother. If you violate this oath, the sky will be struck by lightning!"

Ye Jiwu was finally relieved, put the banknotes in his hand into his arms, and asked again: "Where did you get this money? Did you sell your family's field?"

"No." Ye Jigang shook his head with a painful look on his face.

He really wanted to tell him all the things that happened at home during this period, but he was afraid that after he finished speaking, his younger brother would become impulsive again. If he rushed into Shanghe Village in a fit of anger, wouldn't he be hurting him? ?
Thinking of this, he could only sigh, patted Ye Jiwu on the shoulder, and said worriedly: "Awu, when you go out in the future, you must change your temper. Outside is no better than at home. Your impulsive temper will only make you feel angry." It hurt you. Also, you must be careful in your actions, don't let people recognize you, otherwise you will go to prison again."

"I see," Ye Jiwu said impatiently, "Then where did your money come from?"

"I asked someone to borrow it. As for how you borrowed it, don't worry about it." Ye Jigang didn't tell the matter about the dragon pattern jade pendant. He accidentally saw the existence of this jade pendant.

That time, when he went to find Ye Qingyu for business, he saw Ye Qingyu's door was ajar, so he moved his head towards it in a mysterious way, and through the crack of the door, he saw Ye Qingyu staring at a dragon pattern jade pendant of excellent quality. , he hid the jade pendant in the pillow.

At that time, Ye Jigang still had a bit of conscience, knowing that Da Fang had been oppressing the third house for so many years, making all the people in the third house starving and emaciated.At that time, Sanfang was having such a bad time, and he never thought of pawning the jade pendant. It can be seen that the jade pendant must have an extraordinary meaning to them, so he did not reveal the existence of the jade pendant.

It's just that now, Sanfang and Dafang are like fire and water, how can he talk about morality with Sanfang?
Ye Jiwu didn't ask any more questions, Ye Jigang took out another map and handed it to him, and told him carefully: "When you go out, try to walk at night as much as possible. You go all the way to the northeast, and when you reach the Dragon Country and Snow Country At the junction, you will be safe, it belongs to the no-go zone, and the wanted portraits cannot be sent there."

"Also, when you're away from home, don't expose your wealth," Ye Jigang said again worriedly, "I buried some broken silver and copper coins under a crooked-necked maple tree at the foot of Wuhu Mountain. You can use them on the road. You have to hide the 500 taels of silver note."

"Yes." Ye Jiwu nodded and walked forward.

After walking a few steps, he stopped again, paused, and said, "Brother, if you can take good care of mother from now on, I will forgive you."

Ye Jigang smiled gratifiedly.

But Ye Jiwu said again: "If one day I come back and see my mother is still suffering, then I will definitely kill you!"

After saying that, Ye Jiwu walked quickly without looking back, and after a while, he disappeared into the deep forest.

Qili Town, Jiuwei Restaurant.

After entertaining the group of guests at noon, Ye Qiongdan was checking the account at the counter.

In the thick shade of summer, the shadow enters the room.

She pulled her hair up high like a black cloud.

The shadows of the leaves were gently imprinted on her cheeks, like pieces of flower tinctures, making the girl even more attractive.

Ye Qiongxiang walked over hesitantly, raised her head to look at her, then lowered her head a little uneasy, and clutched the corner of her clothes tightly.

After doing this several times, Ye Qiongdan raised his head and asked softly, "What's the matter?"

"Adan, I...I...I want to..."

"What do you want to do?" Ye Qiongdan closed the ledger and put the abacus aside.

"I want to tell Liu Xiusheng the recipe and the recipe, do you think it's okay?" After finishing speaking, Ye Qiongxiang blushed anxiously, "I don't mean anything else, I just feel, feel that I'm too much of a hindrance here, maybe Can Liu Xiusheng do more things for the shop?"

"Oh," Ye Qiongdan nodded, "Have you decided?"

"I want to ask for your permission." Ye Qiongxiang clenched her hands tightly, her breathing was a little difficult.

"You can do whatever you want." Ye Qiongdan didn't say much.

Ye Qiongxiang looked at her anxiously, almost in disbelief, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

At this time, Liu Xiusheng hid behind the curtain, witnessed all this, and felt a little happy in his heart.

He thought triumphantly, he has lived among thousands of flowers, how can he not be able to handle a little girl who is just in love?

This move of retreating to advance is indeed the right move!
As for the young shopkeeper Ye with a beautiful appearance, I think he secretly fell in love with him, otherwise, how could he agree so easily with Xiang girl to give the prescription and recipe to an outsider?
Alas, if he knew that he should start from Shopkeeper Ye, maybe he would have already got the recipe and the recipe!
Moreover, this little shopkeeper is good-looking and talented, even if Jiu Wei Fan can't sell it anymore, isn't there still Quan Fu Lou's dividend?

If he could get rid of the yellow-faced woman at home and marry the shopkeeper Ye, then in the future, if he had picturesque beauties at home and beautiful women outside, wouldn't it be a blessing to sit on the same level as everyone else?
Liu Xiusheng put down the curtain, went to the backyard to scoop up a ladle of water, poured it under the tree in the yard, and said with emotion: "Big tree, this may be the last time I water you, may I After leaving, you can still flourish like before."

Ye Qiongxiang walked into the backyard, and after hearing his emotion, her heart tightened even more.

Liu Xiusheng pretended to notice her, and turned around: "Miss Axiang, are you here to water the tree too? I've already done it."

Ye Qiongxiang shook her head, and after much hesitation, she bit her lip and said in a low voice, "I have something for you."

As she spoke, she walked into her boudoir, took out a pair of shoes that she had hurriedly made overnight, stuffed them into a piece of gray cloth, wrapped them tightly, and hid them behind her back.

If an unmarried woman sends private things to a man, if it is known to outsiders, it will ruin her boudoir's reputation.

She never knew that the honest and reserved self would have such courage.

After going out, she squeezed the shoes tightly, lowered her head, not daring to look at Liu Xiusheng, and didn't know how to speak.

The summer wind blows and the leaves rustle.

"You, don't you have anything to say to me?" Liu Xiusheng asked.

Ye Qiongxiang nodded, shook her head again, and finally summoned up the courage to ask: "Is it really necessary not to leave?"

Her hands firmly pinched the gray cloth that wrapped the pair of shoes, digging out deep crescent-shaped marks on the cloth.

Liu Xiusheng shook his head.

"If... I mean if, I am willing to tell you the recipe and the recipe?" Ye Qiongxiang asked expectantly.

"I don't want to force you."

"Then I can only..."

At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from outside: "Excuse me, is my husband working here? I'll bring Bao'er here to see him. Come on, Bao'er, and call 'Dad'."

"Daddy—" a five-year-old child shouted loudly.

After Liu Xiusheng heard the child's cry, his face changed drastically.

Seeing that there was no man in the house, the child opened the curtain again, rushed into the backyard, hugged Liu Xiusheng's leg tightly, and shouted again: "Father! So you are really working here! My mother said that someone followed me!" She said, I saw you in this shop when I was boarding a boat at the pier in Qili Town, and I still couldn’t believe it! Dad, aren’t you going to shop? Have you turned your prodigal son back? That’s great!”

Liu Xiusheng became more and more anxious as he listened. He hurriedly pushed the child to the ground and said in a panic, "Whose family is this child? You are talking nonsense! How can you recognize your father indiscriminately!"

Ye Qiongxiang, who was standing aside, turned pale, and the pair of shoes in her hand fell to the ground.

She looked at the child in disbelief, and then looked at Liu Xiusheng again.

They...really look like...

The child was pushed and knocked on the stone table, his forehead was bleeding, and he cried out loudly: "Father! How could you push me? I am your Bao'er! Daddy, you not only pushed me, If you still don't recognize me, I don't want a father! I don't want a father anymore!"

Saying that, the child rushed out and plunged into the arms of a woman.

The woman was wearing patch upon patch of clothes, but the clothes were very clean.

From the facial features of the woman, it can be seen that this woman used to be a great beauty, but she was sallow and thin due to the bright life. However, she looks like she is ten or twenty years older in her twenties.

The woman glanced at Liu Xiusheng, there was no sadness or sadness in her eyes, only numbness and disappointment.

She took out the veil from her arms and pressed it on the child's forehead to stop the bleeding.

"Bao'er, let's go back." The woman stroked the child's hair affectionately and said in a low voice.

"Mother! Daddy doesn't want Bao'er anymore!" The child hugged the woman's leg and cried loudly, "He used to care about the life and death of mother and Bao'er. He always went to the town to drink flowers and wine, and went home when he had no money. Snatching money, often taking all the money my mother worked so hard to sell tofu, if there were no wild vegetables on the mountain, and if the people in the village were cruel, we would have starved to death long ago... Mother... Bao'er doesn't want a father anymore... Bao'er I don't want my father anymore... Mother, take Bao'er away..."

The woman couldn't help crying when she heard the sad part.
