"Hanxi, what are you thinking about?" The Xiaowan saw that she was dumbfounded and asked, "Do you miss your mother again? However, I also miss my Little Pei. I regret not bringing him along, but it was so arduous bringing him here, even I am reluctant to part with him. "

Hanxi had something on her mind. She didn't know if she could tell Xiaowan, but she smiled and said: "Little Pei must also be thinking of sister-in-law. When we return home, you must love him well."

Xiaowan held the wild fruit and said, "This sour and sweet fruit is his favorite."

Hanxi wanted to change the topic so that she could calm down a little, so he asked: "Sister-in-law, can you tell me the story of you and Manager Ling?

"Do you want to hear it? But I'm sorry." Xiaowan laughed, blushing.

Together, they fed the gathered fruit to the soldiers who protected them, then sat in the sun's rays, warm and just right, and began to tell their stories as they ate the fruit.

Hanxi listened to the experiences of the Xiaowan in shock. She could not imagine that such a sweet and gentle young lady that was filled with youthful enthusiasm would have such a tragic experience. It was not just for a moment, but more than ten years, a whole decade.

She subconsciously pulled up Xiaowan's arm and raised her sleeve. On her pure white and slender arm, there were indeed a few wounds that had not been healed yet, and they were plastered across her skin. One could imagine that they had once torn her skin, and had once been badly mutilated …

"Sister-in-law, how did you survive?" Hanxi's heart softened as hot tears welled up in her eyes due to the discomfort.

"Don't cry, I'm fine now." Xiaowan laughed, "Thinking back, I also felt that it was inconceivable. Actually, at that time, I didn't want to live, but if I didn't die, I didn't dare to seek death."

She laughed and said: "Because I will always think, maybe tomorrow will be fine. Maybe tomorrow my stepmother will die, so it isn't worth it for me to die first then, is it? However, people can change. If you push me back into that life now, my heart will grow big, but it should be a good thing. "

"These days, I always felt that there was no one in this world who was more miserable than me. It was because I was being too hypocritical." Hanxi said, "Sister-in-law, I also want to be as cold-blooded and heartless as my father, then I won't feel pain, or be as upright and upright as my brother, but I can't do it either."

The Xiaowan advised: "This is not your fault. You didn't do anything wrong."

In my eyes, she was gentle and virtuous. Even if I could tell that Grandma didn't really like her, she had always been very filial to Grandma, doted on me and Big Brother, and took good care of our family. It was only until the appearance of Brother Xingye that her entire being changed. "

"Hanxi..."

"In the eyes of others, I must be extremely annoyed. I'm always crying, always pestering my mother about my mother's matters. Everyone in the capital is laughing at me, and all the servants in my family are getting impatient."

Hanxi lowered her head and wrapped his fingers around her belt, tying them until they became purple. She did not cry but instead asked firmly, "But like what you said, sister-in-law, you lived once so that you would not get beaten up. In my past life, my parents and family were my entire family. "My mother deserved to do something wrong. I know, but sister-in-law, I want to save her. I want to take care of her and serve her. Is that really wrong?"

The Xiaowan shook her head, hugged Hanxi, and caressed her back: "Don't be sad, when General Wei is done with the things here, he will send you to the Siping Mansion, and you will be able to always be together with Madam. I heard from my husband that our current Siping Mansion is neither poor nor bitter, and we can eat our fill there. "

"Sister-in-law …" As matters stood, even though the person beside him had only known him for two days, who among his close friends and relatives could accompany him. Hanxi steeled his heart and trusted Xiaowan, "I want to return to the capital now."

"Return to the capital?"

Hanxi's expression was agitated as she nodded: "That blue-eyed prince, the news spread throughout the capital, saying that he travelled thousands of miles to come here for the sake of marriage. Then, I will ask the Emperor to pardon my mother. I won't need to restore her title, and I won't need to bring her back to the capital either. Even if I have to stay in the Siping Mansion, as long as I don't serve any more sentences and don't work hard, what do you think? "

Xiaowan was startled, and said with difficulty: "Hanxi, do you know where the Xiluo is? Hubby said that if you marry someone far away, you will never be able to come back."

However, Hanxi smiled and said, "But that way, my mother won't have to suffer."

Xiaowan shook her head. "Mrs. Bi will feel guilty for the rest of her life, if she falls sick because of missing you, the two of you will not even know that you are separated by five hundred kilometers. In my opinion, it would be better if they came now. Even if it was a bit more difficult, they could still meet each other, and they could still depend on each other. If I were you, I would rather watch my mother suffer every day, than never to see her again in my entire life. "

Hanxi stared at Xiaowan blankly. Xiaowan said in a serious tone: "Give up on this idea and don't think about it anymore. You have not been a mother yet, so you don't understand. If my Little Pei were to sacrifice himself for me, I will not be happy, I will only blame him, I will only be unable to come out from the pain and guilt for the rest of my life. "

"But sister-in-law."

"Don't but, since you called me sister-in-law from Ershan, and the family said that Ershan listened to their brother's words, then you must listen to my words as well." Xiaowan said firmly, "Don't think about it anymore. What's more, why do you think you can marry the Prince? You are beautiful, but do you think that I would not care about your mother? "You, you're too arrogant."

The Xiaowan clumsily put on a fierce look and warned Hanxi: "Don't even think about it, do you hear me?"

Hanxi laughed instead.

After the incident with his mother, his clan relatives and the families that he had been on good terms with all disappeared. Other than her brother and grandmother, there was also Brother Xingye's family, no one else cared about her. Suddenly hearing Xiaowan's words, Hanxi felt warm in his heart.

Xiaowan said in all seriousness: "I advise you not to speak to the general like that. When he turned around and got angry, you were so scared that you died. When he went to find you that day, did he scold you?"

Hanxi nodded, then the Xiaowan rubbed her head: "Then be more honest, do you hear me? From now on, put aside the matters about Mrs. Bi. Hanxi, believe me, if you can live a happy life from today onwards, your mother will be very happy. She will feel that there is still hope to live, because she can see your happiness. "

Hanxi pursed her lips, her heart struggling in hesitation.

Xiaowan coughed dryly and said, "If you continue to be conflicted, I will tell General Wei."

Hanxi shook her head, she was afraid of Wei Tengfei.

When she thought about how everyone would be able to fill their stomachs after returning, the moment she stood up, the ground suddenly trembled and the mountains trembled.

The ground was jumping, towering trees were violently shaking, branches and leaves were swaying and falling, birds were flying and beasts were fleeing, both Xiaowan and Hanxi were smashed into the ground.

"Madam, Miss …" The two soldiers grabbed them and hid in a slightly more spacious area. They watched as a mountain collapsed in front of them, dust flying in the air, and their eyes were filled with charm.

A moment later, the earth finally settled down.

"Crap, I wonder if the general and the others will encounter an accident." The two soldiers rushed to the entrance of the mountain, which had been completely sealed off from top to bottom.

"What happened? Was it an earthquake?" Hanxi and Xiaowan ran over.

"It could have been an earthquake, or the general's explosives exploded." The two soldiers were not sure what had happened, but if there was an earthquake, there might be aftershocks. The situation in the depths of the valley was not very optimistic. However, even with explosives, he still had to move this huge rock away in order to get the person inside to come out.

Hanxi said: "How about heading out to the mountain to look for the local yamen to help?"

The two of them looked at each other and shook their heads.

It was very likely that this place would become the secret location of the weapons factory in the future. If outsiders were to come here, they would have to find another place. The general would definitely not agree.

"There's a hole here." Xiaowan shouted.

She looked around and saw light at the corner, she stretched her hand out to look for it. The mountain rock was stuck in there and there was a hole, but the hole was very small.
