23. Chapter 23(1/2)

The man was too thick-skinned, and Xie Lanyin cursed for a while and could not get any response. Instead, he hugged her tighter and tighter. She looked at him secretly, and his lips curled up as if he was in a good mood. He suddenly lost interest and closed his mouth.

Xiao Yuan hadn't heard enough, but he couldn't do anything to ask for scolding on his own, so he just walked.

It is difficult to walk on the mountain road, so he should be very tired when walking. Xie Lanyin, who is being carried by someone, also feels tired, especially his neck, so he has to keep tilting his neck.

"How far is it?" Xie Lanyin asked in a low voice as he looked at the strange forest around him.

"When I came, I chased them for half an hour. Now I am walking slowly, and I have to walk about three quarters of an hour." Xiao Yuan's breathing was still stable.

The mountains were covered with green shade, but he was so tired that he had a layer of sweat on his forehead. When Xie Lanyin saw it, his resentment that had not been too much dissipated.

If a man comes to ask her to sing a song, she will definitely let her cousin beat him up, but this person is different. He saved her and avoided being humiliated. Moreover, his behavior is quite gentlemanly. Looking back now, the song he just proposed is a bit joking, and it seems that there is no malice.

Whether he is a real gentleman or she finds reasons to excuse him, anyway, Xie Lanyin cannot hate this man who tirelessly and seriously carries her. Except for her father's cousin carrying her when she was a child, Xie Lanyin has not been carried by a man before, and he is so considerate that he holds her high without having to climb him hard.

The sunlight leaked from the gaps in the branches and leaves, occasionally illuminating his handsome side face. Xie Lanyin's neck was really sore. She put her left hand on his shoulder and lay down on the back of her hand. She was still a little embarrassed, and her head was facing him. I noticed that he turned his head and looked over. Xie Lanyin's face was hot and she explained to herself in a low voice, "The neck is sore."

The sweet voice was like a yellow oriole bird who was hungry and told him that it was hungry. It was also like a soft chirping sound before the yellow oriole bird retracted its little head into its neck at night, telling him that it was tired and that it was going to sleep.

Xiao Yuan likes the Yellow Oriole, and also likes her, a girl who is more delicate and more painful than the Yellow Oriole. She is as soft as water and nods softly.

He continued to walk, her ears pressed against the back of her hands, and the back of her hands pressed against his shoulders, and the sounds of footsteps she heard seemed to have changed a little.

Looking at the branches and leaves on the head casually, Xie Lanyin suddenly thought of a question and hesitated for a moment: "I don't know your name yet."

It was ridiculous. He was carrying her on his back. She liked him a little, but she knew nothing about him.

She was in the tone of statement, and whether to say it or not, Xiao Yuan heard the little girl's hint, and his eyes were lowered, "The surname is Yuan, and his name is Yi Xiao."

Xie Lanyin repeated silently, only thinking about the possible meaning of this name, without thinking too much, and continued to ask, "Which word? Xiaoyao's Xiao?"

Xiao Yuan smiled and looked at the back of her head, "Yunxiao's Xiao."

She likes to play, and is free and unrestrained. He is determined to be in the nine heavens and the road is long.

Xie Lanyin heard the trouble and turned her head novelly, "Lanxiao Xiao?" After saying that, she thought of his surname Yuan, and laughed uncontrollably, and looked at him with watery peach blossom eyes, "Are you born on the Lantern Festival? Otherwise, why did your family give you the name of a dumpling?"

She smiled so badly. Seeing his joke, Xiao Yuan discovered the flaw of this pseudonym after she reminded her, but the words had already been spoken and could not be changed. He looked at her and smiled, making her turn red again. Then he repayed his grudge with kindness and said as he walked: "Your name is good, 'Whose Lanyin sounds faintly, scattering into the spring breeze and filling the city of Hangzhou', but this sentence comes from?"

The girls of this generation of Xie family are all the "Lan" generation. Xie Lanyin only has the last word that is specially selected. When he actually recited a poem, Xie Lanyin was very surprised, "Whose poem is this? Why am I..."

Before he finished speaking, he met his meaningful phoenix eyes. Xie Lanyin suddenly remembered that it was written by the poet Qinglian of the Tang Dynasty. However, the original sentence was 'Whose jade flute flew secretly and spread into the spring breeze all over Luocheng'. He changed it two places and added her name!

"You, you rogue!"

When I was angry, I got used to be beating my cousin, so Xie Lanyin also beat him hard. How could I use the name of a girl to make fun of it?

"I'm complimenting." Xiao Yuan was very unfair. He was clearly praising her.

Xie Lanyin glared at him and quickly lay down. This time she forgot to put her hands on her shoulders and directly next to him. She was angry for him to show her. In fact, her eyes were closed and her face was red. She couldn't help but recite the poems he had revised for her in her mind.

Her cheeks were hot, and it reached his shoulders through her clothes. Xiao Yuan gently slammed the petite girl on her back, and suddenly she didn't want to leave.

He has never been so relaxed, he doesn't have to think about anything, just teasing her is enough.

But no matter how long the road is, it will end.

"It's right in front." Xiao Yuan reminded softly.

Xie Lanyin slowly turned around because she knew that her cousin Lu Chi had just taken the pill and had his guard beside her. She was not very worried. She was thinking about him. Looking at his handsome face that was slightly red with tiredness, she recalled that he was careful not to let her get around, and deliberately circled around while passing by a big spider web, and she was reluctant to leave.

"If something happens, my mother probably won't let me go out again." She looked at him and reminded tactfully.

If you can't go out, you will never see him again. If he really likes her, he should be equally disappointed and even express something, right?

Xiao Yuan kept walking, breathing harder after taking one step, and intently instructed: "If you have injuries on your feet, you should take a good rest. Even if it is cured, don't go out easily. People's hearts are unpredictable. Who wants to harm you? I'm afraid that you will only believe it when you see you with your own eyes."

He didn't have the energy to support her, but he hoped that her life would be smooth and not cause any more twists and turns.

Apart from his polite concern, he did not feel reluctant to let go. Xie Lanyin's heart slowly cooled down. She was unwilling to try again, but her daughter's reserve made her unable to speak.

"Young Master!" Hearing the footsteps, Lu Jun greeted him. Seeing that the noble master was actually carrying someone on his back, he was shocked and forgot to move.

Xiao Yuan looked up and asked him, "How are the third young master and the others?"

"They inhaled a lot of fragrance. I pinched Renzhong once, but it didn't work." Lu Jun lied to cooperate. He was not used to telling lies, but his master ordered him, so he could still speak seamlessly. Moreover, this was true. pinching Renzhong really didn't work. He just didn't use other means.

"Go and try again." Xiao Yuan panted, avoiding Lu Jun's hand that was about to help him.

Lu Jun knew that it was time to wake up Jiang Huaizhou and the others, so he went to help immediately.

Xiao Yuan stepped on the last section of the mountain road. Xie Lanyin raised her head and saw that her cousin was sleeping on the ground. She put away the thoughts she shouldn't have and whispered: "Let me go."

Xiao Yuan nodded and put her next to Jiang Huaizhou.

Jiang Huaizhou was pinched by Lu Jun and woke up in pain. When he saw his cousin open his eyes, Xie Lanyin was afraid of venting his grievances and threw herself into her cousin's arms and cried. Jiang Huaizhou instinctively hugged her cousin's cousin's comfort, and looked at her messy long hair, and his eyes quickly returned to the clarity.

Xiao Yuan explained in time and finally said, "If you want to continue pursuing, I am willing to lead the way for you to find the two corpses. However, the fifth girl was injured on her feet, and I think it would be better to go back to the city first. After the fifth girl is settled, we will come back and bring more people."

"Brother Yuan's kindness to save his life, I can't repay you." My cousin escaped from death. Jiang Huaizhou asked her to sit down first. He stood up and solemnly gave Xiao Yuan a big gift. "From today, Brother Yuan will be our benefactor of the Jiang family. As long as Brother Yuan is sent in the future, we will do our best to repay you."

"Huaizhou is polite." Xiao Yuan immediately helped him up and said unhappily: "Huaizhou gave me a BMW horse with just a few meetings. Today, the fifth girl was kidnapped. Even if she was a stranger, I would help me, let alone Huaizhou treat me honestly? If you ask for kindness, you are deliberately trying to be alienated from me."

It is only necessary to take action when you can repay kindness. No matter how much you say when you are safe, it will be empty talk. Jiang Huaizhou no longer says anything and salutes Xiao Yuan again. His own girl lost and got it back, Lu Chi was no less grateful to Xiao Yuan than Jiang Huaizhou, so he followed him to salute.

"Okay, stop being polite. It's not too late, let's go down the mountain." Xiao Yuan glanced at the little girl sitting on the ground with her head hanging down and advised.

Jiang Huaizhou nodded, walked over and helped his little cousin up, and he carried her down the mountain.

Xie Lanyin obediently lay on her cousin's back, and her long hair fell down when she tilted her head. Through the black hair that was blown by the wind, she finally glanced at the handsome man not far away. Thinking that even if she was a stranger, he would rescue him. In the end, he lost his thoughts and closed his eyes with a wry smile.

The falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless. If others don’t like it, then don’t like it.

Jiang Huaizhou felt sorry for her little cousin. After walking for a while, she found that she was silent. She thought she was still afraid and deliberately told her a joke. Xie Lanyin knew her cousin's kindness, but she didn't want to talk now, and her stomach suddenly snorted for a while. She looked at the sun that was already west and whispered, "Third Cousin, I'm hungry."

Her voice was not loud, but everyone heard it. Lu Chi immediately took out a piece of pastry cake from the food bag and handed it to her, walking next to her, ready to hand it another piece at any time.

With food and someone around her caring for her so much, Xie Lanyin regained her spirits, pulled her hair away, took the pastry cake, and then smiled and handed it to Jiang Huaizhou in front of her mouth, "My third cousin is hungry, are you going to have a bite first?"

Jiang Huaizhou felt heavy in his heart, and had no appetite at all. He smiled and laughed and laughed, "I slept on the ground for an hour. I'm not hungry, let's eat Lan Yin."

Xie Lanyin started eating it herself, and threw away the wet handkerchief at that time. She found that the cake was falling on her cousin's shoulder. She laughed, "My third cousin's clothes are dirty. I'll wash it for you when I get home."

"Let's not be slick, keep your legs up quickly and I will burn incense and worship Buddha." Thinking of the cute little cousin who was almost sold, either dead or embarrassed. He was humiliated, Jiang Huaizhou's eyes were sore, and he felt very guilty. He hated that he was useless, and he made up his mind not to bring his little cousin to such wilderness in the future.

Xie Lanyin continued to eat the cake, making a crisp sound. After eating, she turned her head and asked Lu Chi for water, and she became a pampered daughter again.

Xiao Yuan looked behind, feeling complicated.

After going down the mountain, Xie Lanyin combed her hair again at the farmer's house, but the man was dressed up. Because she could not ride a horse, Jiang Huaizhou carried her little cousin to her horse. The brother and sister rode together and urged the horse to jog. My cousin's arms were wide and comfortable. Xie Lanyin leaned against him with her eyes closed, listening to the horse's hooves all the way.

Xiao Yuan glanced at Jiang Huaizhou's arm, which was tightly holding her waist, and the more he looked at her chest, the more uncomfortable he felt.

But he was a cousin and he had no position to object.

As he was about to enter the city, Jiang Huaizhou invited Xiao Yuan's master and servant to go to the Jiang family. Xiao Yuan smiled and refused, just asking him to invite him to a mat when he had time. There was no need to be grateful for anything else. Jiang Huaizhou was on the horse, holding his little cousin in his arms, and could not force him to force him to take him away. He watched Xiao Yuan's master and servant leave. He touched the little cousin's head and returned home quickly. Lu Chi turned around halfway to invite the doctor.

After entering the mansion, the servants were shocked. Jiang Huaizhou only said that his little cousin accidentally fell on the mountain road, so as not to spread the news and cause criticism.

The first time her daughter was so far away from her, Jiang began to worry since her daughter left. When she heard that her daughter had returned with injuries, she immediately rushed to Yaoyue Pavilion. Xie Lanyin wanted to take off her shoes and look at her feet. Jiang Huaizhou was waiting in the main hall with a suspicion. Seeing her aunt coming and wanted to comfort her, Jiang waved her hand and signaled to talk later, and hurried into the room.

The parrot lowered his head and stood in front of the couch. She had already helped Xie Lanyin take off her boots and was slowly taking off her white silk stockings. Because the wound was bleeding and the socks were stained with flesh, Xie Lanyin's eyes were so painful that she burst into tears and urged her to slow down. When Jiang saw that, she was worried that the parrot would be clumsy, so she drove the maid away and leaned over to help her daughter. Her husband Xie Hui was occasionally injured, and she did it by wrapping gauze and applying medicine on it.

"Why did you fall?" Finally took off your socks, Jiang held his daughter's white and tender little feet, stared at the swollen ankles, and frowned. In fact, the trauma looked good, only a little broken skin and bleeding.

Xie Lanyin reminded me by my cousin that I should not tell the truth in front of the maids, and insisted that I accidentally fell.

Even after falling, Jiang had no choice but to feel sorry for her. When she heard that the doctor had arrived, she glared at her daughter, took the socks handed over by the parrot, and gently put them on for her daughter. She put down her trouser legs again, revealing only the injured area.

I was ready and asked the maid to invite someone.

Li and the old doctor with gray hair walked in together. Jiang Jizhou's wife Lin Xuan followed behind. It was not surprising that they came. Xie Lanyin looked at Fang Ling who was led in by Mama Liu and was very surprised.

"Fifth Cousin, I heard that you fell down, I'll see you." Fang Ling stood aside, whispered, looking at her cousin's feet with concern. She had been living in the Jiang family for about a few days. The seven-year-old girl was not as restricted as before and was much more relaxed.

Xie Lanyin smiled politely, "It's okay, my cousin accidentally fell while walking, so don't worry Ah Ling."

Fang Ling nodded and walked to the side of Jiang's family.

The old doctor carefully examined Xie Lanyin's injuries, and after asking, he touched his beard and said, "Miss Cousin's injury is not hindered. She can reduce swelling after five days of resting in bed and move freely. This skin-breaking injury will not leave scars."

Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and sent him out with Li, and Jiang Huaizhou led the doctor to prescribe the prescription.

When Fang Ling saw that her cousin was not seriously injured, she obediently told her cousin to recover from her injuries and led Mama Liu out. Back to the villa where the mother and mother lived, Mama Liu first took Fang Ling back to her wing room, and then went to the room to reply to Xie Yao, "Miss, the fifth girl just fell her foot and had a minor injury. She will be cured for a few days."

Xie Yao curled her lips in disappointment. She and Li were kicked out of the mansion and were embarrassed in front of the Jiang mother and daughter. When she heard that her niece fell from the mountain, she naturally hoped that her niece would be injured more severely, so that she would have the opportunity to watch the fun and then pretend to be concerned and give her some condolences...

When Xie Yao learned that it was just a minor injury, she lost interest and continued to take care of herself.

The fathers and brothers there came back. While everyone came to see the doctor, Jiang Huaizhou sent out the maids and told the truth.

Xie Lanyin leaned against the head of the bed, and saw her mother's face turned pale when she saw her mother's face. Thinking of the thrilling moment, tears rose again in her eyes. She leaned over to hold her mother's arms, comforting her mother and comforting herself, "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

How could Jiang not be afraid? What would the end of her daughter who is really abducted by a flower?

Xie Lanqiao also regretted that he couldn't do it, and took his sister's hand and promised, "In the future, my sister will accompany you wherever Lanyin wants to go."

Xie Lanyin burst into tears and said obediently: "I won't go anywhere, I'll stay at home."

Jiang didn't want to say anything now, and hugged her baby daughter tightly, for fear that she would suddenly lose her daughter.

Li also came to coax her niece. Jiang Huaizhou lowered his voice and said to his father and brothers: "I originally wanted to send someone to carry the thief back. I thought about it carefully on the way. It was too much to carry it back, and there were many people involved. It was not good for Lan Yin to be famous after it was heard."

Jiang Qin nodded, carefully considered the conversations of the thief that her niece heard, and said in a deep voice: "Indeed, there is no need to go again. Those around Xi'an City who know our family's wealth are still daring to take action. They are just those gangs that specialize in this kind of activity. Send people to inquire about which gang is missing. At the same time, you can also find out which characters have appeared in Tongshan today. Let's check it slowly, but people must not remind people of Lan Yin."
To be continued...
