captive skylark

Chapter 29
There is no one there, only the breeze blowing past, shaking the light bells under the corner eaves.

"Don't bother brother, I'll just go back to Tangluo Garden and change a pair later."

She was flustered and anxious, and turned to leave, but he might as well reach out and grab her ankle under her skirt.

"Sister, why are you panicking?"

He was so strong that the ankle was hot from his palm, and Yunxi's face was also burning hot. He tried to break free, but the palm tightened even more.

"Brother, what are you doing? I'll let someone see you later." She was really anxious, and was so panicked that she couldn't choose what to say.

Xie Heng took his time, gently lifted the corner of her skirt, exposed the begonia embroidered shoes, and persisted in wiping the veil bit by bit.

"So what if you see it?" He said, "My sister stepped on wet shoes and socks when I came here the year before last, and I took them off for my sister, and I didn't shy away from that at the time."

"What's the matter?" She lowered her head and her voice was moaning like a mosquito, "I was young then, but now I'm older."

Girls who have reached Ji, naturally have to avoid suspicion.

Xie Heng heard the meaning behind her words, and remained silent for a long time without speaking.

Yun Xi also pursed her lips and said nothing more.

She couldn't break free from his imprisonment, and she didn't dare to make a noise for others to hear, so she could only let him go.

After wiping off the stains on the crabapple flower, he hurriedly drew back his feet, blushing and thanking in a low voice.

"Sister, you're welcome." He stood up, folded the handkerchief slowly and put it away in his sleeves, and looked down at her again.

The girl's face was red, spreading to her cheeks, behind her ear was also pink, only the little pearl pendant under her ear was white, round and lovely.

Satisfied, he suddenly thought of teasing her, bent down, approached the pearl pendant, and said slowly, "Little sister, be more careful, if there is a next time, I might not be able to help my little sister deal with the aftermath."

Immediately, the girl's face faded pale, which was exactly the same as the pearl pendant.

Two days later, Qiu Wei Xie Jue really couldn't go.

After studying hard for more than ten years, he made such a mistake once he asked about his fame. He regretted it hard, and his heart became more depressed, and his illness became more and more lingering.

With this disease, he lay on the couch for more than a month.

Aunt Fang of the west courtyard couldn't stand the blow and fell seriously ill.

At this moment, golden osmanthus is fragrant, and Qiu Wei releases the list.

Xie Hengde, the eldest son of the Xie family, understood Yuan, and Xu Zhijian, the son of the Xu family, was also among the top three.

When the good news reached Xie's mansion, Mrs. Xie couldn't help but lead Yunxi and Xie Shuang to Xiangji Temple to fulfill their vows.

It is the season when sweet-scented osmanthus and peanuts are everywhere, and there is misty rain on Nantai Mountain.

Yunxi's mood also seemed to be soaked by the dripping rain, sinking heavily.

These days, she was terrified and had a very difficult time.

She couldn't figure out what Xie Heng was thinking right now.

Just like that day, she couldn't figure out why he happened to appear in the west courtyard.

Her thoughts were disturbing and entangled, which made her sleepless every day.

The truth was about to come out, but she pressed it down.

She didn't dare to think about it, and she didn't want to think about it, she would rather just walk on in such a muddle-headed manner.

Fortunately, since that day, he has never done anything out of line, or said anything inappropriate, as if nothing happened.

When the two met, he was still a gentle and humble good brother in her eyes.

And she was still the obedient and docile good sister in front of him.

But right now, Yunxi is kneeling alone in the treasure hall, holding incense in his hands and praying devoutly to the Buddha statue, "Yunxi, the believer girl, has been lonely and homeless all her life, but I beg the Buddha to have mercy..."
