Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

The more he thought about it, the more he broke out in a cold sweat.

He didn't even dare to think about what would happen next.

He looked up in a daze in the direction where Li Yuan left. For the first time, he felt an indescribable admiration for his boss.

So young, so crazy.

When Li Yuan carried Wei Qiqi to the halfway point of Jiguan Mountain, someone discovered them and looked at the boss who had been away for a few days.

Realizing that something was not right in public, Wei Qiqi signaled Li Yuan to let her down.

A figure came running over and soon stopped in front of Wei Qiqi.

"master……"

Ye Yuanxin looked at Wei Qiqi with red eyes, looking like she was about to cry.

"Didn't you say you would be back the next day? It's already been five days..." She and her master had never been separated for such a long time.

"Okay, now you're back, aren't you? Did you miss me so much? When I was around, you were always nagging about this and that."

Wei Qiqi joked, reaching out to catch Ye Yuanxin's falling tears, "Oh my, whose little girl is still shedding tears at this age!"

Ye Yuanxin felt embarrassed by Wei Qiqi's teasing, and her original desire to cry was dispelled. She couldn't help but mutter: "The master is a heartless person..."

"Yes, yes, yes, the heartless people brought you a lot of stuff, go and take a look."

Wei Qiqi thought of some little gadgets that Li Yuan had prepared for her to relieve boredom, which would be enough to appease the little Ye Yuanxin.

When she heard that there was something good, Ye Yuanxin wiped away her tears and followed Wei Qiqi.

Her appearance made Jian Feng and Jian Yu, who were following behind her, twitch their lips.

How come this little girl's temper shows no signs in front of her master?

A few days ago, she relied on the power of the two of them to severely discipline the signalmen, causing the signalmen to tremble when they saw this little girl.

Jianfeng stood behind Jianyu, his eyes unable to stop falling on Ye Yuanxin.

"Jianfeng, can you get down now?"

Jian Feng nodded: "My muscles and bones have become stiff after lying in bed. It's better to walk around. It's better for your health."

Seeing that he was able to walk, Wei Qiqi felt relieved. In places like these where medical care is underdeveloped, the fear is that he might suffer from serious infection and death.

Seeing her standing in the wind for a long time, Li Yuan couldn't help but say, "You've just gotten better. Don't stand in the wind now."

His words made the other three people present couldn't help but look at Wei Qiqi, only then they found that Wei Qiqi's face was paler than usual, and his speech was a little weak.

I thought it was just fatigue from the long journey, but it turns out he was sick?

Li Yuan took Wei Qiqi back to the courtyard first. Ye Yuanxin followed closely behind them and asked, "Master, are you sick?"

"Why did you get sick? Are you feeling better now?"

"Would you like to eat something? I'll have someone make something for you. What do you want to eat..."

Wei Qiqi couldn't help but frown. Just when she was about to ask why this little girl was so talkative, Li Yuan on the side turned his head and glanced at Ye Yuanxin lightly.

The little girl who was as noisy as a parrot just now suddenly fell silent. She couldn't help but shrink her head back, her mouth stuck with glue, and she couldn't utter a word.

Wei Qiqi was surprised by the sudden silence, but she really didn't have the energy to care about anything else, so she went back to her own small courtyard with high spirits.

Ye Yuanxin had tidied his room very well. As soon as he entered, he took off his coat and lay on the bed, feeling that he was having difficulty breathing.

Li Yuan did not go in again and called out Ye Yuanxin.

"Someone will send you some herbs later. You can prepare them for Qinniang yourself and watch her drink them. The food should be easy to digest and less greasy." He instructed. Ye Yuanxin listened and nodded, memorizing each point in his mind.

"I need you to be more alert at night to see if she still has a fever." When Li Yuan said this, Ye Yuanxin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Okay, I'll stay on the master's couch tonight."

Seeing that she agreed so readily, Li Yuan felt relieved.

He was away for a few days, and Jiguanshan needed to be integrated, so he had to keep a close eye on these people personally.

So I can't come to Wei Qiqi to take care of her all the time, so I give her more instructions.

Wei Qiqi ate and took another nap. She woke up at dawn the next day to the sound of birds singing.

I took it seriously this time and wore thick clothes when I went out.

She has to take good care of her body, as she always feels that she might disappear like Lin Daiyu.

It was three days later when I finally recovered.

She first went to the plain behind Jiguan Mountain.

I was shocked when I got here. The entire plain was barren land as far as I could see.

People were busy weeding in the fields, it looked like a busy scene.

She hadn't been here for ten days, and as soon as she arrived, she was besieged by the crowd. Originally, they could only obey orders from above to Wei Qiqi, and as for what happened, it had nothing to do with them.

Today, things are very different.

Ever since their captain showed them the benefits of the plow and the curved plow and they used them for a while, they felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

They used to be farmers and people who worked in the fields to tend to flowers and plants, and they all knew how much effort it took to reclaim a piece of land.

I didn't expect that in just a few days they had to turn the soil over and even pull out the grass roots underneath.

Captain Yang Qingbai said that when Wei Qiqi comes back, he will teach them other methods to make the land fertile and make the wasteland produce the same amount of crops as other land in the first year.

At first, no one believed this news. Even if the wasteland had been plowed and tilled before the beginning of summer, as long as the first year's yield was half of the usual yield, no! As long as it could yield, they would be very happy.

But they couldn't stop their centurions from talking and talking, so those who originally didn't believe it at all began to half believe it.

They even began to look forward to when Wei Qiqi would come back so that he could show them what that thing was or how to make the land fertile and produce more food.

So as soon as Wei Qiqi came back, he was surrounded by everyone.

Ye Yuanxin subconsciously protected Wei Qiqi, but was patted on the shoulder and pushed aside by Wei Qiqi.

It was a mess, and everyone was asking if there was any way to make the output of newly reclaimed land the same as usual.

At this time, a man shouted from the outside: "What are you doing here if you don't work? What good things are you gathering here to see?"

As he said this, he pushed aside the people on both sides and went to see what was going on inside.

This person is Yang Qingbai.

Yang Qingbai looked a little darker than when Wei Qiqi left. Now, he shouted at the top of his voice and actually stunned everyone.

When Yang Qingbai was about to look, he met the gaze of Wei Qiqi in the crowd.

Immediately overjoyed.

"You're back? I... I didn't know... I heard that you were sick before, so I thought it would be a pity to disturb you..."

His loud voice suddenly became small, and he spoke to Wei Qiqi with a somewhat respectful and worried look.
