Chapter 18 Panic
Seeing Ding Wan'er disappear, the smile on Ye Ziqiu's face receded, and her eyes sank into the house.

Today I was a bit tired after doing work, I lay down after eating early, but I couldn't sleep, thinking of Qi Tianci from time to time, and finally fell on Ding Wan'er's matter again.

Looking at Ding Wan'er's appearance, one could tell what she was scheming about. Although she lived a new life, she would not be much smarter because of it. It was just that she took a detour in her previous life, and now she can avoid it. You'll have to wait until something happens to find out.

After being dazed until late at night, Ye Ziqiu felt sleepy, but he didn't want to hear the conversation between Ye Zhengliang and Mrs. Zhang next door in a low voice.

The night was quiet, and the rustling sound became very clear.

"Father, I want to go to Qi's family and explain the marriage clearly. Even if we don't get married in autumn, we can't delay her."

After Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, there was silence for a while.

After hearing this, Ye Ziqiu became energetic and didn't know what was going on with him. When he heard about himself and the Qi family, he couldn't help but pay attention.

After a while, Ye Zhengliang's voice came again. He heard a little melancholy, and sighed slightly. Ye Zhengliang used to have a good relationship with Qi's father, and he always wanted Ye Ziqiu to marry him, but after Qi's parents, Zhang never allowed it. , Thinking about it, I felt sorry for the child, so I didn't mention it again in the end.

Now when it comes to retiring, I still feel very uncomfortable, but I also know that I can't argue with Mrs. Zhang.

"God-given that child is a good child, but his life is hard. If it weren't for that situation, I really want to marry Qiu'er. Hey, forget it, you can figure it out!"

Now that Mrs. Liu is the head of the Qi family, Ye Zhengliang is naturally speechless as a man, so this matter can only be handled by Mrs. Zhang.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang said kindly, "That's fine, I'll go over there tomorrow and clarify the matter."

Thinking that he would not hear anything more, Ye Ziqiu opened his eyes and looked at the pitch-black roof, and heard Ye Zixia's shallow breathing, and there seemed to be ripples in his heart, an indescribable feeling, The mood is unknowingly irritable.

Ye Ziqiu pulled the quilt over his head, trying to make himself fall asleep as soon as possible, but he didn't want Ye Zhengliang's voice to ring again.

"Mother, since you want to withdraw from the marriage, you have to pay back the original dowry. The tiger skin has already been pawned by your mother, so that's all. I will give the money to the Qi family, so that they can live more comfortably."

Hearing about the betrothal gift, Ye Ziqiu raised his ears again and pursed his lips.

In the next room, Mrs. Zhang was also stunned for a while, and after some consideration, she said unnaturally: "Didn't Brother Qi give you the tiger skin back then? It's just an excuse to say it's a bride price, and you really have to pay it back. "

Mrs. Zhang hesitated. She didn't mean to be greedy for other people's things, but the price of these things is quite high. Although they have a little savings now, 100 taels is not a small number.

"Her father, why don't we pay back half of it, no matter what, we don't have half of it."

Although Zhang's words are good, Ye Zhengliang disagrees. They are sorry for the Qi family in the first place, not to mention that Qi's father was responsible for it back then. Otherwise, he might have been in the tiger's mouth long ago. How dare he do such a thing now .

Before, he hadn't thought about his daughter's affairs well, and he also thought about her daughter's time to get married, so he was procrastinating like this, but now he couldn't procrastinate any longer.

"Okay, that's it. How much money is left in the family? Let's see how much it is. I'll go hunting in the mountains tomorrow and then make up."

The Zhangs whispered a few more words, and Ye Zhengliang began to talk about sleeping, but there was no more sound.

Ye Ziqiu frowned tightly when he heard this, feeling uneasy all the time, so he fell asleep in such a daze that it was almost dawn.

This sleep was deep, Ye Ziqiu opened his eyes again, the sky was already bright.

Thinking of what she heard last night, Ye Ziqiu was startled, hurriedly dressed and ran to Mrs. Zhang's room.

"Mother, what about father?"

Mrs. Zhang was embroidering a piece of handkerchief, and said without raising her head, "Your father has gone up the mountain."

Uphill
Ye Ziqiu felt uneasy, and she didn't know where the uneasiness came from. Normally, Ye Zhengliang would go up the mountain every now and then, but nothing happened.

Only this time, she had a bad premonition, and when she panicked, she felt her hands were shaking.

Seeing that her daughter did not speak, Zhang raised her head and saw her pale face, trembling violently, "What's the matter, Qiu'er?"

Nervously, Mrs. Zhang put down the things in her hands and came over to support Ye Ziqiu, "Qiu'er, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Zhang only thought that Ye Ziqiu was sick, and pushed him to sit on the edge of the kang, "Lie down for a while, and mother will call Uncle Li here."

Uncle Li is a doctor in the village, and the villagers basically turn to him for medical treatment. Mrs. Zhang saw her daughter like this, so she went to the ground to look for shoes when she was busy.

Ye Ziqiu came back to her senses, took a deep breath, and held onto Mrs. Zhang, "I'm fine, mother, and you don't need to look for Uncle Li."

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang observed Ye Ziqiu for a while, seeing that she was really fine, so she felt relieved.

"You scared the mother, what's the matter?"

Facing Mother's questioning, Ye Ziqiu kept silent. Could she say that she suspected that something happened to Father this time?
It wasn't today that Ye Zhengliang broke his leg in the previous life, but she just had this premonition.It also needs a lot of money, and Ye Zhengliang went up the mountain, so he must still have to pay for it.
No, she has to find a way.

Ye Ziqiu hid her emotions and stood up, "Mother, where has Zixia gone? I have something to do with her. I'll go out and see."

Before Mrs. Zhang could say anything, Ye Ziqiu walked away quickly. She didn't know what to do, how to stop it. Going up the mountain would definitely not work. She was a weak woman, let alone save Ye Zhengliang. Safety cannot be guaranteed.

But she couldn't just let her sit and wait for death.

Unknowingly, Ye Ziqiu came to the entrance of the village without any idea in his head, and when he looked up again, he found that he had already reached the foot of the mountain.

Looking at the dense forest in front of him, Ye Ziqiu felt for the first time that this place was like a man-eating beast, opening its mouth to devour the people who entered.

Although Ye Zhengliang only injured his leg in his previous life, Ye Ziqiu knew that his leg had suffered from a disease, and he has been lame ever since.

"What are you going to do?"

Ye Ziqiu was pulled back to his senses by the cold voice, turned around abruptly, and saw Qi Tianci who frowned at him.

To say that although the two of them are married, it means that they played together when they were young. Over the years, the number of times they met can be counted on one hand. Recently, no matter where they go, they can meet each other.

Ye Ziqiu looked flustered, shed tears at some point, and after wiping, it was full of water.

"what happened to you?"

Qi Tianci looked at the girl in front of him and actually cried. It wasn't the first time he saw her cry, but that time it seemed capricious, but this time there was no sound at all, but it made people's heart ache even more.

The moment Ye Ziqiu saw Qi Tianci, a thought flashed through his mind, and he stepped forward a few steps and grabbed his hand tightly, "Qi Tianci, can you help me, my father has gone to the mountains, you Can you help me find him?"
