Jade spy border

Chapter 80-Light

When Pei Jie returned home, he had just washed off his disguise and changed into ordinary clothes when he was called over by his cousin Mei Wuniang.

Yun Niang and Mei Wu Niang were sitting together having breakfast. When Pei Jie came in, she stood up with a smile and set the dishes and chopsticks for him.

There was a smile on Mei Wu Niang's face, but there was some unexplainable meaning in her words: "It's really hard to stay up and down at night for three days in a row. You have been busy all night, and you haven't had breakfast yet, right?"

Pei Jie naturally knew what his cousin meant by what he said. There was no one else here, so he smiled and said: "I am really hungry after practicing all night. Thank you two sisters for remembering me."

Mei Wu Niang raised her eyebrows: "Practice Kung Fu all night? This is a rare thing. I haven't seen you practice Kung Fu for a long time. It doesn't mean that you haven't made any progress in many years. What, could it be that you got some advice from an expert?"

Pei Jie sat down unceremoniously, drank a bowl of porridge first, then nodded and said with a smile: "Really, cousin, do you still remember the girl I told you about? In the past few days and nights, It was her who gave me and Brother Six guidance, which was quite rewarding."

Mei Wu Niang looked at Pei Jie, picked up a meat bun and put it on the plate in front of him: "This is a good thing, but I remember that the girl seems to be not very old. The incense making says that she has a family background. I can understand, how can this girl, who has only been at Shanmen for a few years, master such a skill, be able to teach you and Ying Liu?"

Pei Jie showed a wry smile, but he and Mei Wu Niang had nothing to hide:

"Cousin, if I say that I am talented and extremely talented, I am afraid you will think that I am fooling you again. But after last night, in addition to this, I have to add that this girl has extremely high knowledge. Her thoughts are even more unfathomable, and her vision is simply unimaginable to people like us."

When Mei Wu Niang and Yun Niang heard what Pei Jie said, they both stopped holding the chopsticks in their hands and looked at Pei Jie carefully. When they saw that his eyes were clear and there was no difference, Mei Wu Niang laughed: "You To elaborate, if you don’t tell me about your ugly Yinmao today, I will just think that you bump into a guest, and you have to dress up in disguise when you go out to practice, so that even I can’t recognize you.”

Pei Jie immediately understood that what happened last night could not be concealed no matter what, so he simply told what happened in the past few days and nights in detail, but he hid the Yu family and did not mention Mei Wu Niang and Yun Niang. They are all very smart and capable people, but even if he didn't say anything, he could only guess a lot while listening and thinking.

When I heard what Mi Yuyan said about the general trend of the southwest and the world, I was already surprised. Mei Wuniang now travels between Nanou Women's Kingdom and Dayun. Because of the incense making and jewelry business, she is even more exposed to it. Some Nanou officials naturally have a much deeper understanding of these matters than Pei Jie.Even so, there were some speculations and judgments that she couldn't figure out, but she had to accept them.

When he heard that he had taken Ying Tong and his younger brother into the Hall of Unforgiveness, he was already so shocked that he didn't know what to say.After a while, the two of them came to their senses, and Mei Wu Niang couldn't help but ask: "Do you think the things she said about Southwest were her own thoughts, or was there someone behind her?"

Pei Jie shook his head: "She mentioned that during the few years she spent in Shanmen, in addition to practicing martial arts, she also read. There is indeed a courtyard in Shanmen full of books, and they are all-encompassing and of various types. As for why she reads these books, and why she reads them. Thinking about it this way, I don't quite understand. It's unclear what fortune she got in the mountain gate, but there shouldn't be many experts standing behind her at the moment, and the people in her family are all considered honest."

Mei Wu Niang opened her mouth and wanted to say something but did not continue. Instead, she silently picked up the chopsticks and finished her breakfast in small bites. Then she said to Pei Jie: "Try to see if you can invite that girl to this bright moon." Let’s talk about jewelry.”

Pei Jie looked at his cousin with some confusion, and said awkwardly: "This doesn't seem appropriate, does it?"

Mei Wu Niang knew what Pei Jie was worried about, but she didn't say anything. She just smiled and said, "Just go ahead and tell her that I have something about Nan Ou that I want to talk to her about."

Pei Jie looked surprised. After a moment, he didn't say anything more. He just nodded and went out to find Mi Yuyan.

Seeing Pei Jie go out, Yun Niang said, "Do you think what this girl from the Mi family said is true?"

Mei Wu Niang sighed slightly: "What do you think she said is wrong? If our southwest is really like what Chen Sanye said outside the southwest, officials are not just for personal gain, but can serve the people sincerely. If everything is clear and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, how can you and I suffer such humiliation?"

"So, this is broken from the root. No matter how much money we make, we still have no shelter. In troubled times, people are like grass and grass. We are all people who have lost our homes and roots. Don't you hate it?" I hate it, I hate it so much, but I just hate it, I don’t know who to hate, and I don’t know who to avenge this hatred.”

"Listening to what this girl said today made me sober up. Who should we hate? Who should we swing the fist that we have held in our hearts for a long time? But I don't know how to swing it..."

Mei Wu Niang's voice went from sharp to deep, and finally turned into a murmur. Even Yun Niang had not seen her like this in many years.

"The girl is saying that this sister from the Mi family knows how to pump her fist?"

Mei Wu Niang shook her head: "I don't know, but I hope she knows. If she knows, if she can make me swing this punch freely, what can I do if my life is left to her? Who of us can do that? Doesn’t it mean that one day counts as one day? Yun Niang, actually, if you don’t..."

Yun Niang's eyes suddenly widened and turned slightly red: "Girl, when you mentioned us, didn't you include Yun Niang?"

"That's not what I meant. It's just, if there is a way to survive, why do you need it? Why bother?" Mei Wu Niang showed a sad smile on her face.

Yun Niang and Mei Wu Niang were abducted by kidnappers and transported to the bandit village. Mei Wu Niang won the love of the young gang leader and chose Yun Niang as a maid, so he kept her, but she was also raped by other bandits in the village. The traitor was about to jump off a cliff to commit suicide, but Mei Wu Niang rescued her and stabbed the bandit to death with a knife, so that she could survive.

Later, their gang of bandits dispersed, and Mei Wu Niang helped Yun Niang find her home, but her parents did not recognize her at all, saying that their daughter had died a long time ago, and Yun Niang also died with her heart. Even her surname was changed to Mei, and she truly became the shadow of Mei Wu Niang.

"If the girl is born, I will be born. If the girl dies, what's the point of my life?"

Mei Wu Niang looked straight at Yun Niang, why didn't she understand that she, like herself, was a person with obsessions, otherwise, whether it was the Nanou Women's Kingdom or the two-Zhejiang road proposed by Chen Sanye, they would all go the same way. Yes, I stay in this southwest plateau and don’t want to leave, just because of the obsession in my heart, I want to see if the sky in this southwest will one day really be like what the world sees, with blue sky, white clouds, and gentle wind. Yun Dan... But they never thought that this hopeless obsession would be on such an ordinary day, as if a hole was opened by the rolling thunder before dawn. Although they still didn't know where they were going, But I saw a glimmer of hope.

Mei Wu Niang smiled and nodded: "That's fine, we will be companions together on the road to hell. In this damn world, even if you become a bad person and want to turn back, you can be forced to die cleanly, let alone how can a good person live? If you don’t want people to live a good life, then no one will live in peace!”

Mi Yuyan got Pei Jie's letter and told her aunt that she wanted to go to the market to look at the incense ingredients. She still wore her daughter's clothes, which were not old, and stumbled to the door of the Cuiyue Jewelry Store. After looking around for a moment, a waiter came out to welcome customers.

"Girl, come in and take a look, if you like anything..." The waiter was smiling, and he was still very enthusiastic even for a little daughter like Mi Yuyan who was dressed in ordinary clothes.

Mi Yuyan nodded and smiled: "I don't buy anything, I'm here to find someone, your boss."

The waiter had obviously received the order, and his warm smile immediately showed a hint of respect: "Is this girl Xingjiu?"

Mi Yuyan is more curious about her cousin Pei Jie. She is really a very considerate person. There are not many people with the surname Mi in Linnan City. Just talking about it can make people think of Mi's Incense Shop, which is fine. Jiu's little ladies were all over the street, so he nodded calmly: "Please lead the way, brother."

Passing through the back door of the store, Pei Jie had obviously been waiting there for a long time. He cupped his hands and led Mi Yuyan to the back yard. This yard was quite interesting. The front door was inconspicuous in a corner, but inside it was The two courtyards are combined into one, and the corridor at the corner is built to look like a winding path. When you reach the end, it suddenly becomes clear, and a green lake is right in front of you. The courtyard is built along the water, which is quite reminiscent of a Jiangnan garden.

"Girl, please come this way!" Pei Jie had obviously seen too much and didn't care about the beautiful scenery in front of him.

Mi Yuyan nodded and smiled softly: "The owner who built this garden is very elegant."

"This is a garden that Mr. Chen Sanye helped redeem. The previous owner was also in the jewelry business, but his family moved south. My cousin bought this garden and didn't waste much time to clean it up. She just changed it. Just common furniture and utensils." Pei Jie explained.

Mi Yuyan glanced at Pei Jie, who seemed to realize that there was something wrong with what she said, and immediately said with embarrassment: "Don't get me wrong, girl, my cousin has some business dealings with Mr. Chen."

Mi Yuyan was speechless for a moment. She didn't accept the words, or not. It seemed that although Pei Jie was thoughtful, he was not without weaknesses in his dealings with others. She could only pretend that she didn't hear it.

Mei Wu Niang and Yun Niang came over along the lake. Pei Jie quickly made introductions. The two sides looked at each other and exchanged greetings for a while before Yun Niang led the way. Mei Wu Niang took Mi Yuyan to the main house where she lived. The main hall of the hospital.

After inviting Mi Yuyan to sit down, Mei Wu Niang made a deep blessing ceremony. Seeing that Mi Yuyan was about to get up and avoid it, she quickly pulled Mi Yuyan and said: "Girl, I have to accept this ceremony no matter what. If Without the girl, I don’t even have my only blood relative in this world. I wanted to solemnly come to express my gratitude, but Ajie said that the girl is not convenient now, so I had no choice but to invite the girl to come.”

After saying this, Mei Wu Niang took another brocade box from Yun Niang's hand and held it in Mi Yuyan's hand with both hands: "This is a set of purple jade jewelry. Although it is quite rare, it can't express our brother and sister's love for each other. A girl’s gratitude.”

Mi Yuyan smiled and pushed back: "It's not that Hua Niang doesn't accept it, it's really that I don't know how to use this treasure of Sister Wu Niang. Brother Pei knows that I always wear a black linen robe. Sister Wu Niang This jewelry was given to me, and like a pearl cast in the dark, it can only be left in the cabinet to gather dust."

Pei Jie really didn't expect that his cousin would come back, so he was a little embarrassed, but he also knew that Mi Yuyan's words were not a false refusal, so he quickly said: "Cousin, please don't embarrass Ninth Lady. This thing is in the hands of some people." In her eyes, a million dollars is hard to find, but in her eyes, I'm afraid it's just a burden."

When Mei Wu Niang saw what Pei Jie said, Mi Yuyan also had a frank look on her face, so she stopped trying to persuade her and just smiled and said, "It makes Jiu Niangzi laugh. My younger brother is a person who doesn't know etiquette, but he treats me as his elder sister." Put it on the fire to bake, which makes my thank you gift look shabby."

"What did Sister Wu Niang say? Although Hua Niang and Brother Pei Er and Brother Ying Liu have not known each other for a short time, they have watched each other for life and death. It can be regarded as a life-and-death friendship. There is really no need to be so polite. If Sister Wu Niang is willing, Just call me Hua Niang." Mi Yuyan had a good impression of Mei Wu Niang, so she no longer tried to hide it and directly showed her closeness.

Mei Wu Niang turned around and handed the jewelry box back to Yun Niang's hand. After hearing these words, her hand movements paused slightly, and she couldn't help but look at Mi Yuyan again. The girl in front of her was taller and taller than the average girl from southwest China. She was slightly taller, and she was wearing a coarse cloth dress that was not old, and the color was not bright. I don't know why, but she had an indescribable aura standing there.

Mei Wu Niang thought for a while and then came up with a suitable word to describe that temperament: heroic appearance, yes, not slim or graceful, or something else, but heroic appearance, which is seen in all the women she has seen. , a kind of temperament that I have never seen before. Even if he is placed with the high-ranking officials of Nanou Women's Kingdom, he is not inferior to his heroic appearance.

This kind of daughter's family openly showed their willingness to get close to each other. For some reason, Mei Wu Niang felt heartbroken and honored. She suddenly understood that this younger brother of hers, who had gone through many ups and downs, had a lot to do with it. Why did my brother, who was not always obedient, have such respect for this girl? She just had that kind of aura that ordinary people couldn't match.

Mi Yuyan did not dodge, but let Mei Wu Niang and Yun Niang look at her. Her eyes were as open as water, and she looked over like this with a gentle smile.

After coming back to life, except for last night, Mi Yuyan was almost extremely restrained, trying not to show off the aura of a former military leader. However, these two days she had to show this side, because these people actually have potential with her. The same goal is to quickly twist them into a rope with him so that they are willing to follow him through this mountain of swords and seas of fire. The only way is to let them see the light first.

Some light comes from working hard in the long darkness, going through all kinds of hardships, and finally finding the dawn. Now Mi Yuyan doesn't have so much time to wait slowly.

There is also some light that illuminates people's hearts. No matter when, he is there. No matter what hardships and obstacles you go through, he can illuminate your way forward, point you in the direction, and let you finally walk through those muddy swamps. , reaching the other side of blooming flowers.

Mi Yuyan can only be such a light now, a light that makes people feel confident and full of power!
