However, the naughty children of every household did not waste their good time sleeping. When the old lady was sleeping with her fan in her hand, they all ran up from the kang and ran to the river outside the village to play.
The deepest part of the river was only half a person deep. The children were always in it during the summer months, and the adults weren' t worried. They would occasionally see it and shout a few words of advice, so they couldn' t be bothered to care about them.
Jiao Jiao usually walked around the village, and when he saw these boys, he gave them a lot of food.
Therefore, when they saw Jiao Jiao and the old man coming from afar, the boys ran up to them like bees. They grinned and squinted their eyes. They wanted to ask for delicious food, but they did not want to speak. That mischievous look made Jiao Jiao laugh so much.
Normally, she would tease them a little, but today, her grandfather was by her side. Although the boys were wearing shorts, it was not nice to be drenched in water. She did not want to be nagged by her grandfather, so she quickly took out a handful of fruity candies from her shoulder bag and handed them over.
"After eating the sugar, go home. Don't let your parents miss you! "
"Well, go home now. Oh, there's sugar! "
"Thank you, sister Jiao Jiao! "
"Divide the sugar, divide the sugar! "
The boys thanked him with all their mouths, and at last a swarm of bees ran to the village head under the tree to share the loot.
The river suddenly quieted down, and there was no one else but the gurgling water.
So Jiao Jiao chose a shade and sat down with his grandfather.
After thinking for a while, she couldn' t avoid it and forced herself to tell the old man how ye lan got into her space. Both their jade pendants and pendants had disappeared, and ye lan had done good deeds and accumulated virtue, so she would enter her space more and more frequently.
The old man's eyes widened as he heard this. His chest rose and fell, and it was obvious that he was really angry.
Although the etiquette of da yue was not strict, especially here in the northern region, the people were strong and valiant. Many times, women appeared in public to support their families with small businesses, but the reputation of a woman's chastity was still very important.
Especially the unmarried daughter, she began to avoid suspicion at the age of seven. After she was twelve years old, she hardly went out. After fifteen years of age and marriageable age, they began to talk about marriage, and it was even harder for them to get out of their own doors.
He didn' t expect that the mysterious place where his precious granddaughter often went in and out of was actually hiding a ... Man!
Although this man was still a young man, he had to avoid suspicion.
Listening to his granddaughter's tone, every time he mentioned the word" ye lan," he was very familiar and close, and his internal organs were in great pain.
Not to mention ye lan's character and identity, she only said that her family had held her in their hands for so many years and thought that she was safe. She never thought that she would be" stolen" by someone so early!
What does that mean? No matter how strong the chicken fences were, they couldn' t stand being stolen by the fox!
The old man raised his fist and gave it to his chest twice before he finally calmed down.
"Blame me, blame me! "
Jiao Jiao was so frightened that she guessed that her grandfather would be angry, but she did not expect him to be so angry. She rushed over and hugged grandpa's arm, pleading bitterly," grandpa, don' t be angry. It's all my fault. I should have told you earlier, but ye lan is very good. She never hurt me and always obeys me. And I'm in charge of space, and I don't agree, and he's not taking anything out. He was dying, and I saved him! Aiya, anyway, he won't hurt me, don't worry! "
"Silly girl! "
The old man really wished he could slap his granddaughter, but he couldn' t bear to. You ... Are killing me! Who exactly was this kid? Where did he come from? Could he not be chased out or shut down that mysterious place from now on? "
Jiao Jiao was afraid that the old man would be angry, so he quickly acted coquettishly." Grandfather, don' t worry. I' ve only said half of it. Seeing you angry, I was so scared that I forgot. "
"Say it! "
It was rare for the old man to not take his granddaughter's advice. He stared at her with a stern look.
Jiao Jiao glanced around alertly. Seeing that there was no one around, he said in a low voice," grandfather, ye lan is ... Old master yao's grandson, the son of the deceased noble consort yao, the eighth prince. "
The old man took a deep breath, but he held back and gestured for his granddaughter to continue.
Jiao Jiao said the most important thing, so he simply broke the pot and told them everything.
After the incident with his mother, ye lan was beaten to death by the soldiers outside the capital city. After entering the space, my heart softened and I saved him. Later on, he began to learn martial arts and established his own power, intending to avenge his mother and the yao family. I, uh, helped him with his medication or something. He also found me a set of internal kungfu, I occasionally practice, ready for the use of self-defense.
The last time our family was schemed by the zhao family and that wang li, he knew after, please his master to make a move, the zhao family was unlucky.
But before that, I didn't know his identity until old Mr. Yao and the others were brought home, and he confessed his identity to me. Originally, he was afraid that his identity would implicate our family. But now, Mr. Yao is already in our home. He can' t avoid it even if he wants to. He said that he will grow up as soon as possible. He will protect me and our family in the future. "
Elder lin frowned deeply upon hearing this and did not let go of her. He couldn' t hold it in any longer and asked," have you thought about it? What if he doesn' t get revenge and expose your relationship? What are you going to do with our family and bury him with us? "
Jiao Jiao bit her lip and felt a little sad. This was the root of her fear.
No matter how careful they were, they couldn' t hide it from the world for a long time. Once ye lan's preparations and growth were not enough to support his revenge, he would definitely die, and the lin family would only be buried with him.
However, fate was like an invisible big hand that pushed them closer and closer. First, she saved his life and helped him from being bullied to resisting. Now, they were learning martial arts together, saving their merits and fighting against those who were bullying and coveting the lin family. Then, their family coincidentally saved ye lan's grandfather ...
Perhaps from the moment that both of them were able to enter and leave a space, their fate had been fixed and they could not be separated easily.
She could only follow him down and keep going.
If she were to choose, she would still save him half dead ...
The only thing that made her feel guilty was the lin family. As the lin family's favorite granddaughter, she chose ye lan, which was equivalent to putting the entire lin family on ye lan's" chariot"!
"Grandfather, I'm sorry, I ..."
Jiao Jiao was already choked with sobs. Tears gushed out like a spring water, instantly wetting her face.
"Grandpa, I don' t want to, but ... Sob, I' m scared too. "
The old man was so anxious that he seemed to have been thrown into the frying pan. After all, this was a matter of life and death for his family. How could a small family like the lin family get involved in the imperial court affairs?
