Lingzhou.

The dry climate, the wilderness where no signs of human life could be seen, the sky, the lonely geese flying by, bringing along a long cry, and then disappearing into the dark yellow sunset.

Bai Cai looked up at the mottled sky and clearly heard someone calling her …

The woman looked at her worriedly. Her two willow leaf like eyebrows were tightly knitted together. She asked worriedly, "Aunt, why are you crying? Did you have a nightmare again?"

Bai Cai slowly stood up and silently looked at the girl in front of her. After a long while, she asked, "Xia Qiu, is your father back yet?"

He got up and helped the elderly aunt out of the bed. As he did every day, he patiently comforted her: "Father came back for a while and then went out again. He said that he would hunt tigers for you and skin the tiger for a coat."

A smile hung on her white face, and one could vaguely see the traces of tears on her face. However, it was as if there was no longer any sign of sadness as she boasted, "Your father is the best hunter. In the clan, only he can hunt tigers."

Ji Cha nodded and helped her aunt to the table. She sat her down and went in and out to prepare the prepared food.

"What time is it?" White makeup asked.

"It's already time for dinner," Ji Cha said.

Bai Cai looked at the dishes on the table and felt troubled. "But your dad still hasn't come back. Let's wait for him to come back before eating."

Ji Cha did not stop when she was filling the bowl with rice. Under such circumstances, she had to go through almost every day, "Daddy brought dry food. He said he would eat it in the mountains. He will come back late at night and let us eat first."

The white makeup is not happy, holding the chopsticks to look at the rice in the bowl.

Ji Cha sat beside her and carefully coaxed her, "Mother, if you don't eat, father will be worried."

Only then did Bai Cai give an "En" and casually take two bites.

Halfway through her meal, she suddenly put down her chopsticks and stared at Ji Cha with a puzzled expression. "Miss, who are you and why are you here?"

Ji Wu looked straight at her. Then, he stood up from the stool and said in a kind tone, "Madam, hello. I am a new neighbor next door. My family's elder asked me to come and greet him."

Bai Cai immediately understood, she stood up and grabbed Ji Cha's hand. "Young lady, did you move here recently? Good, good, good. People here are really good-natured. You came in a hurry, did you eat? "Oh right, I've stewed some ribs today. Take a bowl back home." With that, he called into the room, "Xia Qiu, go to the kitchen and bring a bowl of ribs."

After he finished, he didn't hear anyone respond from the inner chamber.

A trace of helplessness appeared on her face as she said, "I'll go take a look at this child."

"No need." Ji Wu hurriedly pulled her back. With a complicated expression, he said, "Our family has already eaten. We won't disturb the Madam. Please have your meal first, I'll be heading back."

As Ji Cha spoke, he kept walking outside. He could not hold on to his white makeup, so he had to send her off to the door before he came back to sit down. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and started eating.

Ji Cha didn't walk far. He stood by the fence outside the courtyard and listened quietly for any movements inside the house.

Sure enough, after a while, she heard someone shouting from inside: "Xia Qiu, Xia Qiu... "This girl, where did she run off to? She has no rules all day, who would dare to marry her in the future?"

When Ji Hu heard this, he tentatively walked out of the room. When he reached the door, he heard her grandma shouting, "You're finally back! The sky is about to turn dark. Where did you run off to?"

Ji Cha let out a sigh of relief and walked into the house. He said in a natural manner, "Let's go out and take a look." He then looked at the empty dishes on the table, packed them and headed to the kitchen.

Bai Cai followed behind her and nagged, "Did you go to the border camp again? I've told you so many times that it's a war zone. All men are there, and that's not something a girl like you should go to. If you continue like this, when your dad comes back, I'll tell him and see if he hits you or not."

Ji Cha listened obediently while washing the dishes in her hands. She knew that her grandaunt only needed someone to tell her the story. She didn't need to respond.

He washed the tableware and wiped the table. The white makeup was not done yet.

After hearing that it was getting late, Ji Cha decided it was time to let the old man rest. He said, "Mother, I already have someone I love."

The matter of her cousin and the general of the Liu Family had never been a secret in the family. Ji Cha naturally knew how impulsive her cousin was to follow that man out of the family and give birth to Liu Wei.

"He's the deputy general of the capital's border camp. He came to the Lingzhou to call for troops, and in two days he will go to the Liaozhou to take the lead. He's really handsome."

Bai Cai saw that his "daughter" did not seem to be joking and immediately put on a straight face. "A capital official?"

Thinking of the status of the Liu Family, Ji Cha nodded and said, "Yes, but he is only a deputy general. He should not be a high official."

"Can't." Bai Cai immediately retorted, "From tomorrow onwards, you will stay at home and not go anywhere. Official, you're quite bold. Do you know that the people of the capital are all jackals? You don't want to live!"

Following that, it was another round of nagging. Ji Wu quietly listened, and in the end, the old man seemed to be exhausted. He tiredly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Ji Cha covered her with a blanket and sat on a wooden chair to the side. He sighed worriedly, "At your age, you are still so repulsed by what happened that year. No wonder your cousin ran off with General Liu … However, who would have thought that once they parted, it would be forever? Aunt, don't you regret it? "That's your only daughter."

He didn't know if it was because he heard her words, but the corners of his eyes began to tear up.

Ji Wu couldn't bear it any longer. He wiped the corner of her eyes and waited for her to fall asleep before he got up and left in a soft voice.

It was already dark. The crescent moon hung in the sky. Ji Cha faced the moonlight and returned to his home. The house was empty. Ji Jin wasn't there, and there wasn't even a single person to light a candle.

After lighting up the hall, she washed her face and rinsed her mouth.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard hurried knocking on the door.

She hurriedly opened the door and looked outside. The aunt she was familiar with said anxiously, "Xiao Cha, something happened to your grandaunt."

Ji Cha was stunned for a moment before she asked, "What happened? When I left, she clearly fell asleep …"

"I don't know what happened, but the gates were tightly shut, but there were a lot of banging and banging inside. Everyone in the clan was close, so hurry up, your grandaunt doesn't know anyone, only you and Little Wei can coax her."

Ji Wu hastily put on a set of clothes and ran back.

When he arrived outside his grandaunt's room, he saw the sleepy Ji Wei softly knocking on the door as he yelled, "Mother, I'm your daughter. I'm back. Open the door."

However, it was obvious that the people in the room did not take this to heart. Since seven days ago, she no longer treated Little Tiny as her cousin.

In her aunt's memory, her cousin was already sixteen or seventeen years old, and Little Wei didn't match.

The clanging sound in the room became louder. There were many people outside the room, and when they saw Ji Cha coming over, they hurriedly told her, "I wonder what happened to this old man?"

"It was because Fourth Uncle heard the commotion inside when he knocked on the door that everyone was alarmed."

"Quickly go in and take a look. The old man doesn't recognize us. We'll go in and scare her."

Ji Cha's face was filled with worry as he replied, "En." He was about to fly through the wall when he saw the clan leader and the two elders rushing over.

Ever since she became confused, her aunt had to teach the patriarch a lesson every time she saw him. It could be said that she didn't like this person very much, but the patriarch was Uncle Sixteen's younger generation, so the younger generation could only listen attentively to the scolding and didn't even dare to breathe too loudly. Even so, her aunt still disliked this person.

Ji Cha knew that this was because his aunt and grandfather had been arranged by his father to go to sea and had yet to return.

This grudge had always been hanging on the head of the clan head's house, so she just couldn't remember everyone. Furthermore, she clearly remembered the members of the clan head's family.

The clan leader obviously didn't want to go in and listen to the elder's lecture, so when he saw that Ji Cha was about to climb over the wall, he warned her to be careful while he and the others stayed outside the door.

After Ji Cha entered, the first thing she saw was the floor of the inner hall. It was a mess. She carefully approached the door, laid on her stomach, and looked into the room.

With one glance, she saw her grandaunt, bent over, rummaging through the cabinet. After searching for a while, she could not find anything. In a fit of anger, she flipped the cabinet upside down.

Ji Cha rushed in and steadied the cabinet. She held the elderly woman's body and asked, "Aunt, what are you looking for? Tell me, what do you want? I'll look for it for you. Don't hurt your body."

Bai Cai didn't even look at Ji Hu. His eyes trembled as he looked around the room and shouted in a daze, "Nan Zheng, where are you … "Southern Zheng …"

Ji Xiu dispiritedly hugged the old man and said, "So you were looking for your great-aunt. He went out to do some work and will only be back tomorrow. Don't worry, he will be back tomorrow."

Bai Cai pushed the tea away and staggered back into the room. He flipped through everything, as if he wanted to tear down the room.

She did not know what kind of state her aunt was in, as this had never happened before. Even if the elderly were to occasionally look for their husband and daughter, they would never be as silly as they were now.

Was it serious again? God, what should he do? Could Ji Heng bring Liu Wei back?

Ji Cha felt a sense of exhaustion.
