Pray for rain

Chapter 30

Time flies, and the waterway in front of the Hanjiang Dam has been repaired for more than a month.Now Pei Yu has to follow Xie Wei wherever he goes, and Xie Wei has changed from avoiding at the beginning to letting go.

In the early winter season, Taiwei Xie received a letter from Madam Xie, who first announced the good news, saying that there was a heavy snowfall in Yicheng.But there were many ambiguities in Mrs. Xie's words, she only said to ask Taiwei Xie to take time to go back to Yicheng.Taiwei Xie reluctantly put down the letter. The project here in Hanjiang has just started, and he really can't get away.

Xie Wei asked, "Did Mother say what happened?"

Taiwei Xie sighed: "It's just that the people are a little restless, it seems to be related to the Taoist priest before."

Xie Wei hesitated for a while and said, "Why don't I go back?"

Taiwei Xie pondered for a moment and then said: "Alright, you can go back after dealing with the matter at hand."

After finishing the affairs, Xie Wei set out to return to Yicheng. Pei Wei didn't care where he went, it would be better if he went to Yicheng.He had already received news from Geng Ze that the drought in Yicheng had been dealt with, and a heavy snow had fallen. This time, he could go back and ask Gengze what caused the drought in Yicheng.

There were only two of them back this time, so they arrived in Mobei within five days. After several days of traveling, the two decided to rest in the suburbs for one night.Picking up some firewood and lighting a fire, Xie Wei sat by the fire and stretched out his hands to keep warm, Ruyu's face was warmed and peaceful by the flames.

Pei Xuan sat down next to him, but he just gave Pei Zhen a helpless look and didn't say much.Pei Yu held Xie Wei's hands again, and smiled slightly: "I'll warm Xie Xie's hands."

He was always so strong that Xie Wei couldn't pull back, so he could only smile brightly at Pei Zhen.Just when Pei Yu was shaking his heart at this smile, he heard Xie Wei ask: "Do you want to get married?"

Pei Yu's heart moved, she leaned closer to him and whispered: "Brother Xie, are you willing to marry me?"

Seeing that Xie Wei's expression was a bit more melancholy, he said: "When I was young, I thought that I would marry a woman of similar background and have a lovely daughter like Yuan Yuan..."

Pei Yu's expression tightened, interrupting his imagination, holding his face and saying: "But brother Xie hasn't gotten married until he was nineteen years old."

Xie Wei pushed his hand away: "I do like men, but..." But what?Pei Xuan stared at him, "But I don't know if I like you."

Xie Wei took the initiative to hold his hand, and said softly: "The Xie family owes you two lives, I have always regarded you as my own younger brother before."

After a long silence, Pei Yu wanted to open his lips to say something, but couldn't.He can force Xie Wei to do anything, but he can't force him to like himself.However, Xie Wei suddenly leaned his head on his shoulder and said, "But I'm willing to give it a try."

As if the willows are dark and the flowers are bright, Pei Yu is a little dazed.Xie Wei rubbed his shoulders and said, "I'm willing to try to like you."

Feeling Pei Xuan's stiff body, Xie Wei smiled.He is not hard-hearted, Pei Yu revolves around him every day, and there is still that small and exquisite candle dragon wood carving by his bedside, no matter how long the journey is, he will take the wood carving with him before leaving.What's more, Pei Yu is outstanding and considerate, how many people have been moved by him?Xie Wei was no exception.

Pei Zhen's heart skipped a beat, she embraced Xie Zhen, and fell asleep with him by the firelight.

The snow in Yicheng has just melted, and the ice on the eaves has turned into water, dripping and dripping.The faces of the people were relaxed like never before. This heavy snow made the people no longer worry about water shortage, and also brought them hope.

Xie Wei and Pei Yu returned to Xie Mansion, only to find that Xie Mansion was in a mess, and the ground was covered with snow that had turned into sludge.Seeing Xie Wei, the housekeeper burst into tears and said, "Master, you are finally back..."

Xie Wei frowned and asked, "What happened?"

The butler led him into Mrs. Xie's room, choked with sobs and said, "Madam is ill."

The inner room was filled with a strong smell of medicine, Xie Wei immediately rushed to Mrs. Xie's bedside, only to see Mrs. Xie's face was thin, lying quietly on the bed, Xie Wei said hoarsely: "What's going on?"

The butler replied: "Half a month ago Madam fainted suddenly, and she hasn't woken up since then. I have invited all the doctors in the city, and they all said that Madam's illness is strange and they can't do anything..."

Xie Wei held Mrs. Xie's skeleton-only hand, feeling a pain in her heart, and said, "Go look for it in another town."

The housekeeper sighed: "I have searched all the doctors around..."

Xie Wei said in a cold voice, "Then look further afield!"

The butler stepped back in response, and Pei Yu put his hands on Xie Wei's shoulders, comforting him: "Don't worry, Auntie is usually in good health and will be cured." But when he saw Mrs. Xie's face that seemed to be terminally ill, his heart rose. There was a trace of doubt.He had checked the fate of Xie Wei's family a long time ago, Mrs. Xie should have died suddenly after enjoying her old age in this life, how could she be so seriously ill?

Xie Wei buried her face in Mrs. Xie's hands, choked up, and slowly calmed down under Pei Xuan's comfort.It was only when he suddenly realized that something was wrong, he asked the maid beside him, "Where are Yuan Yuan and Nanny Wen?"

Mrs. Xie is seriously ill, why are Nanny Wen and Xie Yuan not here?

The maid said in fear: "Nurse Wen is accompanying the young lady in the young lady's room..."

Xie Wei immediately stood up and went to Xie Yuan's courtyard to look for her. Pei Xuan followed behind him, but there was not a single attendant in Xie Yuan's courtyard.Xie Wei pushed open the door of Xie Yuan's room, only to see a thick gauze curtain hanging in front of Xie Yuan's bed, and from the tent came the soft voice of the mother.

Xie Wei lifted up the gauze curtain calmly, and saw Xie Yuanyi falling asleep peacefully in Wen Nanny's arms.When Nanny Wen saw him, she looked extremely anxious, telling him to keep quiet, and then gently put Xie Yuan down.Nanny Wen signaled Xie Wei and Pei Yu to go out, and then gently closed the door of Xie Yuan's room.

Nanny Wen choked up and said, "Master, you are finally back, where is your lord?"

Xie Wei frowned and said, "Father is still handling government affairs in Hanjiang, what's going on?"

As if afraid of waking Xie Yuan up, Wen Momo said softly: "Not long after you and your lord left, something happened..."

It turned out that after Taiwei Xie and Xie Wei left Yicheng, a civil strife broke out in Yicheng.Taiwei Xie's cronies forbade that Taoist priest to continue to play tricks in the city to confuse the crowd, while the other adults seemed to have become followers of the Taoist priest. Coupled with the crowds of people in the city, Xie Taiwei's cronies had almost lost the right to call the shots. right.

But half a month ago, Xie Yuan went out with several girls in the city, but they were all kidnapped by bandits.The rest of the ladies are all missing, and they must have been brutally murdered.But Xie Yuan escaped, but like a frightened bird, he was afraid of everyone he saw.

When Madam Xie saw Xie Yuan like this, her heartache was mixed with anger, and she personally ordered someone to investigate the matter thoroughly, and it was bound to arrest and punish those gangsters.Unexpectedly, within a few days, Mrs. Xie suddenly fell down with a strange illness.

After listening to Nanny Wen's narration, Xie Wei's face sank into the water, and he wanted to ask again.But they heard Xie Yuan's exclamation from the room, and the three rushed into the room, and Nanny Wen hugged Xie Yuan tightly and comforted her softly.Xie Wei looked at Xie Yuan who didn't seem to recognize him, and called softly, "...Yuan Yuan?"

Xie Yuan was still sobbing, and buried his head in Nanny Wen's arms, unwilling to see them.Xie Wei's eyes were hot, and he was about to cry. Pei Yu who was at the side held his hand tightly and pulled him out of Xie Yuan's room.

Seeing Xie Wei's absent-minded face, Pei Yu said, "Brother Xie, write a letter to Uncle first."

Returning to his senses, Xie Zhen said, "Yes... yes, I should write a letter to my father."

When Xie Wei went back to his room to write a letter to Taiwei Xie, Pei Wei ordered someone to clear the slush in the courtyard, and seeing that it was getting late, he ordered the housekeeper to prepare some meals for Xie Wei before going back to his room to find Xie Wei.

I saw Xie Wei sitting in front of the desk with a pen in his hand, seemingly unable to write.

Pei Yu sighed in his heart, Taiwei Xie was thousands of miles away at this time, and he was doing business for the Holy One, how could he come back.But if Taiwei Xie doesn't come back, Mrs. Xie passed away during this period... This letter is really difficult to write, so he said softly: "Brother Xie, why don't you tell Uncle that Auntie is sick and ask Uncle to hand over Yicheng to you?" I'll deal with it for you."

After pondering for a while, Xie Wei wrote the letter, added the Xie family's mark, and asked someone to deliver the letter.

The housekeeper brought up the food, and Pei Yu pulled Xie Wei to sit at the dining table: "Let's eat something first."

Xie Wei shook his head to express that he couldn't eat any more, Pei Yu said softly, "After driving for so long, eat something before going to sleep, and we'll talk about it tomorrow when you wake up. If you collapse now, what will Auntie and A Yuan do?"

Xie Wei reluctantly ate a few mouthfuls, and collapsed on the bed without washing up.Pei Xuan wet the veil with warm water, wiped his face, and lay down beside him.Xie Wei retracted into his arms, and finally cried out with sobs.Today, Mrs. Xie's haggard face made him startled, and he was at a loss as to what to do at the moment.

Pei Yu planted a kiss on his forehead and stroked his back. After he fell asleep, he went back to the heaven and went to find Si Ming Xingjun to check his family's fate book.

Si Ming Xingjun wondered: "I haven't seen it before, why should I watch it again?"

Pei Yu had no intention of explaining, but turned to the page of Mrs. Xie's fate book, only to see that the originally perfect life in the fate book suddenly changed.His expression tightened, and he went to see Xie Yuan and Xie Taiwei again.Seeing that his face was cold and hard, Si Ming Xingjun also took a look at him, and then said suspiciously: "It's weird, I haven't changed it."

Pei Yu closed the fate book and said, "I changed it myself." There can only be one reason for the fate book to change by itself, and the Xie family did not die from human effort.

Si Ming Xingjun asked: "Could it be that some evildoer escaped from the demon world to wantonly hurt people?"

Mrs. Xie's illness at this time seems to have an explanation suddenly, it should be poisoned by a demon or a spell, Pei Yu thanked Si Ming Xingjun and returned to the human world.

At dawn on the second day, Xie Wei saw that Pei Yu was not by his side, stared at the bed curtains for a long time and thought for a long time, and then dressed neatly.He first went to see Mrs. Xie, but fortunately Mrs. Xie was not incapable of medicine.Xie Wei fed Mrs. Xie a bowl of medicine, and went to see Xie Yuan again.Xie Yuan was still like that, screaming when he saw anyone except Nanny Wen, and couldn't ask anything at all.

Xie Wei looked at Xie Yuan and closed his eyes weakly.When he opened his eyes again, Xie Wei's pupils seemed to be filled with ice, and he ordered the housekeeper, "Order someone to invite father's cronies into the residence, I have something to ask him."

The butler answered yes and went down.

At this time, Pei Yu came back from the heaven, bringing with him the elixir he asked for from the Supreme Lord.Seeing Xie Wei, he said: "I have some precious pills here, I don't know if they are useful, you can try them."

Hearing what he said, Xie Wei fed Madam Xie one with anticipation.Unexpectedly, after Mrs. Xie swallowed it, there was still no response.Pei Yu was a little shocked. What kind of demonic poison and spells are useless even the elixir of life and death of the Taishang Laojun?

Seeing Pei Yu's disappointed expression, Xie Wei patted his head and said, "It's nothing, I've already sent someone to find the doctor."

The steward said that Taiwei Xie's cronies had arrived, so Xie Wei ordered him to meet him first, then kissed Pei Yu's ear, and said softly, "Thank you."
