I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

There was no sound from the other end, as if someone had gone inside to report.

After a while, the man shouted again: "What's the matter?"

Ji Xiaobei was sure that they were not Western barbarians, so she was not so scared anymore. It was not difficult for her and Heita to deal with a few bandits.

"It's getting dark, can we go over there first?"

So wait a while.

Several people were running towards this side with long knives in their hands.

They ran to Ji Xiaobei and the others and felt relieved when they saw that there were only two of them.

Pointing a knife at them from behind, he slowly walked inside.

The two of them were taken to a tent.

Several people were holding torches, and the surroundings were bright.

A tall and thin man walked out of the tent.

Ji Xiaobei looked towards him. Under the firelight, the young man had a frown on his face, looking intimidating without even being angry.

Why does this person look familiar?

Ji Xiaobei searched his memory, but before he could figure out who it was, he heard the young man say, "Who are you and why are you trespassing here?"

Ji Xiaobei also found the voice familiar.

"Liang, Liang Yuhui!" Ji Xiaobei blurted out.

The young man was stunned for a moment and looked at Ji Xiaobei.

The guard next to him shouted angrily: "How dare you call my name!"

Liang Yu waved his hand and the guards retreated.

He took a few steps towards Ji Xiaobei and looked at Ji Xiaobei in the light of the fire.

The man was unkempt, his clothes were hanging in strips, but his eyes were bright and unusually sharp.

He didn't even think about who this person was for a moment.

Seeing that he was in a daze, Ji Xiaobei laughed and said, "Liang Yuyao, I am Ji Xiaobei, and your sister Liang Yuyao is my sister-in-law..."

"Ah!" Liang Yuhui was shocked.

"Miss Ji... why is it you?" he said excitedly, "Quick, Miss Ji, please come in..."

Ji Xiaobei strode in.

I thought to myself: When I passed by Boling County and heard the grandfather and grandson at the inn talking about the County Magistrate Liang, could it be Liang Yuhui?

After Ji Xiaobei sat down, he couldn't help but ask, "Yuhui, are you here in the mountains to find water?"

Liang Yuhui had a worried look on his face: "Boling County is seriously short of water. There are a few water sources in the shallow mountains. Water is distributed every three days, which can barely guarantee that there is water to drink. Even those three water sources will dry up quickly. We have no choice but to come out to find water!

We have been out for a month, but have not gained anything. The water in the mountain streams has gradually dried up. We can only go inside. Even if we find a water source, there is no way to divert the water out..."

Ji Xiaobei looked at the boy's dry hair and rough cheeks caused by the wind, and felt indescribable feelings in his heart.

Liang Yuhui was a good county magistrate.

"Miss Ji, what are you doing in the mountains?" Liang Yuhui asked in confusion.

There were wild beasts roaming in the deep mountains, and from time to time they would encounter barbarians from the west. They met a group of them a few days ago and nearly lost their lives. They ran desperately and managed to escape.

"I'm here to look for someone!" Ji Xiaobei looked around.

It was a simple thatched hut with some dead branches piled on the ground and a quilt neatly placed on top.

"Find someone?"

"Well, I'm here to look for Fu Jichang, he's missing..."

"Ah..." Liang Yuhui couldn't help but interrupt Ji Xiaobei, "Miss Ji, Lord Fu, he is right here..."

Ji Xiaobei: …

With a loud bang, the black tower stood up from the wooden block.

Ji Xiaobei was stunned for a long time. Liang Yuhui called her "Miss Ji" several times before she came to her senses.

Heita took the lead, and with tears in his eyes, he grabbed Liang Yuhui's arm and said, "Master, where is my master?"

……

Knowing that Fu Jichang was not dead, Ji Xiaobei was not as ecstatic as she had imagined. She closed her eyes, squeezed the two little fish in her hands tightly, and followed Liang Yu out of the house.

Liang Yu pointed to a thatched cottage at the back and said, "That's right over there. Master Fu was injured and has gotten better these days."

Heita's tears and snot were streaming down his face as he rushed over in a hurry.

Liang Yuhui was a careful person. When he saw Ji Xiaobei's expression, he guessed about 80% of the relationship between the two.

He wanted to catch the black tower, but the black tower ran too fast and he couldn't catch it.

Ji Xiaobei was not in a hurry at all. He smiled faintly and asked Liang Yuhui how he was injured.

Liang Yuhui felt that now was not the time to talk about this. He wanted Lord Fu to tell Ji Xiaobei in person.

"Miss Ji, you should go see Lord Fu first!" Liang Yuhui felt that he was an eyesore here, so he turned and left.

When Ji Xiaobei looked up again, he found Heita standing upright in front of him, grinning.

"Miss Ji, please go ahead... I'm in a hurry..."

After Heita finished speaking, he jumped three feet high and ran away.

While running, he pulled Liang Yuhui.

"Yu Hui, Yu Hui, wait for me..."

Heita knew that the person his master wanted to see most was Ji Xiaobei. If he broke in first, his master might kick him out.

So, he hurried to the door of the thatched hut and returned rationally.

Ji Xiaobei watched the two men walk away arm in arm.

She stroked the little fish in her palm and squeezed the green one hard.

I cursed in my heart: Damn it, I had such a hard time looking for you, I thought you were dead...

She felt a little confused and her heart was beating very fast.

His face was a little red.

She touched her face, put the fish in her pocket, and went towards the thatched hut.

The door of the thatched hut was ajar, and light was shining through the gap.

She pushed the door gently, and it fell to the ground with a bang.

Fu Jichang had heard the noise behind him a long time ago. He was holding an oil lamp and looking at the map of the Boling Mountain area.

When I turned around suddenly, I saw the figure I had been thinking about day and night standing in the smoke and dust.

He blinked, and she was still there.

He thought he was dreaming, but it also felt so real. He stared at the person in front of him.

Ji Xiaobei was startled by the broken door.

She jumped a long way and said, "Pah, pah, pah, you scared me to death!"

The oil lamp in Fu Jichang's hand fell onto the table with a bang, and the light went out.

Everything went dark before my eyes and the person in front of me disappeared.

He sat down dejectedly on the chair, muttering: "I knew I was dreaming, why would she come..."

He smiled bitterly twice.

"Fu Jichang! Can't you make this broken door stronger? If someone is timid, they will faint from fear..."

Ji Xiaobei reached out, picked up the broken straw door and threw it aside.

It’s better not to have this door.

"Ah... Xiaobei..." Fu Jichang had already adapted to the darkness before his eyes and stood up with one hand on the table.

"Ji Xiaobei, is it really you?" He hurriedly confirmed again.

"Yeah, I've only been gone for a few days, you can't be unable to recognize my voice!"

Ji Xiaobei's voice became hoarse and changed.

Fu Jichang indeed did not hear her voice.

However, from the moment she opened the door, he confirmed that the person in front of him was Ji Xiaobei.

"Xiaobei..." Fu Jichang rushed over.

Ji Xiaobei hurriedly took two steps back and looked behind him embarrassedly.

Just now she saw a group of men looking over here curiously.

Now there is no one left.

She coughed lightly and asked, "Why are you here?"

Fu Jichang said nothing, and excitedly pulled Ji Xiaobei into his arms...
