Chapter 21

When she secretly looked at Xue Lang, Xue Lang was also looking at her.He just thought that the little nun was really good-looking. Under the dim oil lamp, he could see that the little nun's fair skin seemed to have no pores, and her big eyes looked timidly but vigilantly. Looking at you, apart from the scab on the forehead, I really can't find any other shortcomings.

Xue Lang sighed, no wonder the group of beggars thought badly, because she was so good-looking.

"Brother, these steamed buns are really delicious." Xue Chen excitedly held up the steamed buns to show off to his brother.

Xue Lang's stomach also groaned inappropriately, he raised his eyes and saw Zhijin swallowing his saliva, only then did he realize that the two steamed buns in his hand belonged to her.He wasn't such a bad person, after all, he wanted to meet that person through her, and he didn't like eating alone, so he took out one and threw it over.The other wrapped it up and stuffed it into the corner behind Xue Chen.

Zhijin picked up the steamed buns, but didn't care about being polite, and ate them in small bites, looking at the other side with uneasy and slightly vigilant eyes.

Xue Lang pretended not to notice, but his stomach started growling, and his messy face was blushed, and he glanced away in embarrassment.After a while, he remembered something, got up and went outside.Seeing that Brother Gou's body was still lying there, he dragged him out of the Town God's Temple and walked towards the Sanqing River not far away.

As soon as he left, Zhijin felt uneasy again, someone died here just now, she was a little scared, she thought of Jinghai and Qingyu, their deaths were worse than this dog brother.And she was afraid that the beggar's accomplices would find her, so she wanted to leave for a while, leave here.But she also thought that the young man was trying to save the man who killed him. If the government came to arrest him, wouldn't it be ungrateful if he ran away?
After waiting quietly for a long time, until the kerosene lamp was extinguished and the surroundings were plunged into darkness, the boy did not come back. Zhijin hugged her knees and looked at Xue Chen in the dark, and then fell asleep in a daze after a while.

Even though she is very tired recently, Zhijin sleeps alertly.When she heard the sound of footsteps, she subconsciously hugged her body tightly and dared not move. Listening to the sound of footsteps, her nerves were tense, and her breathing became a little weaker.When footsteps came into the room, Zhijin controlled her voice not to tremble, and asked, "Who?"

The footsteps stopped, and it took a while before he said, "It's me."

Zhijin's defense suddenly relaxed, it was that boy.

Xue Lang walked up to his younger brother in the dark, Xue Chen was already leaning on the grass and fell asleep, Xue Lang covered his younger brother with an old blanket and fell asleep next to him.

In the dark night, there was a sudden silence.Zhijin heard the two brothers snore softly, and fell asleep peacefully.Opening her eyes again, it was already bright outside, and she was woken up by the noise outside.

Zhijin opened her eyes suddenly, the dilapidated door outside was closed, and someone began to knock on the door at this moment.

"Well, benefactor, someone has come to seek revenge." Zhijin was anxious, not knowing what name to call him.

Xue Lang opened his eyes, glanced towards the door, hurriedly pushed his younger brother to wake him up, pulled him and ran away, "Get out of the back!"

Zhijin froze for a moment, and quickly followed, if she ran too slow and was caught by those beggars, then she would be completely finished.

The door at the back was locked all year round, and it was already rusty and probably couldn't be opened.Before Zhijin could ask, Xue Lang had already jumped onto the wall, and reached out to pull Xue Chen.

"Hurry up, let's go." Xue Lang was a little annoyed. This little nun looked pretty, but why did she always react slowly, could she be a fool?It's not like that either.

Zhijin actually thinks that men and women are different, and climbing walls, in fact, looking indecent is not her strong point.But there were soldiers chasing after him, and it was too late to think about it. Hearing Xue Lang's words, Zhijin stretched out her hand and climbed up with all fours.For some reason, she suddenly remembered the first time she saw Qin Jin in Jiuru'an. At that time, she climbed the wall for steamed buns, and then saw Qin Jin outside the wall on the top of the wall.

Qin Jin was wearing an azure robe and not a military uniform at the time, and he was taken aback by him at the time, and he felt that Qiao Feng was a good person and Qin Jin was not a good person to get along with.But it was this person who seemed difficult to get along with who helped her repeatedly and brought her to the capital.It's just that the two have already parted, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to see each other again in the future.

Zhijin shook her head, shaking off those memories, walked to the base of the wall, and followed Xue Lang's footsteps to climb the wall.

It's just that her wall-climbing skills are as poor as ever, not even as good as Xue Chen's.After finally climbing up, the beggars also caught up.Xue Lang jumped down, and then urged Zhijin to jump down.Zhijin was frightened, closed her eyes and her heart skipped a beat.

The pain she imagined didn't come, she opened her eyes, only to see black eyes looking at her with anger, "Get up and run."

Zhijin got up quickly and ran away without looking back.

Xue Lang's face was full of black lines, and he felt that this nun was really weird, and it was not easy to grow so big.But now is not the time for him to think about these things, it is important to escape now.

A group of beggars dressed in rags chased after them with sticks in their hands, screaming and killing, while the three strangers galloped together in the morning light, casting long shadows on the narrow road.

Before the sky was completely bright, Qin Jin had already woken up.First, he went to the yard and punched for an hour before stopping.

The chief follower Zhouquan wrung out the sweat towel and handed it over, and asked respectfully: "General, the master is already waiting in the front yard, breakfast is ready, and is waiting for you to go over."

Qin Jin nodded slightly, wiped off his sweat and went straight to the front yard.

At the dining table in the front yard, Qin Yang, Qin Du and the others were already sitting there waiting. When they saw him coming, Qin Du, Qin Yu and Qin Meng all stood up and called big brother politely.

Qin Jin took a glance, satisfied that he didn't see Aunt Liu, first said hello to Mrs. Jiang, then nodded slightly to his siblings, glanced at Qin Yang, nodded lightly, and then sat down to eat.Qin Yang's face turned black, he put his chopsticks down heavily, and snorted coldly: "Do you still see me as a father? You don't even call me father!"

Qin Jin glanced at him indifferently, without speaking.Seeing his attitude, Qin Yang became even more angry, but he couldn't say it out loud. Although he was the father and Qin Jin was the son, which old man would be so unconfident in front of his son?He is not afraid of being laughed at when he speaks out, that is him.Originally, he wanted to burst out his temper, but when he saw him, he softened his temper unconsciously, and all his pride and honor for Lao Tzu were trampled under his feet.

The maid served breakfast, Qin Jin drank millet porridge, and suddenly remembered the days in Jiuru'an.At that time, the little nun would prepare ten steamed buns for him every time, and if she couldn't eat them herself, she asked her to eat them together.The little nun trembled, ate in small bites, and looked at him from time to time, like an abandoned cat timidly looking at strangers.

"Get some steamed buns." Qin Jin suddenly missed the steamed buns.

As soon as Jiang knew that his son had a big appetite, he ordered the girl to get it. After a while, the steamed buns came up. Qin Jin picked up one and sniffed it, then took a bite in disgust, and spit it out before swallowing it.

"Which cook made steamed buns?" It wasn't tasty at all.

Jiang was puzzled, asked the girl, and then said: "It's the original cook, or a gift from the emperor." The son is away all year round, and the food he eats should be worse than the one at home.Out of curiosity, Jiang picked up the steamed bun and ate it. He found it soft and delicious, not as hard to swallow as he said.

Qin Jin was stunned. During the past few days on the road, and more than half a month in the nunnery, he ate steamed buns made by little nuns. Could it be that he is used to eating them?
This habit is very bad, Qin Jin frowned, looked at Jiang, forced himself to eat a few more mouthfuls helplessly, then put down his chopsticks, "Zhouquan."

Zhou Quan secretly groaned, and just after a few mouthfuls, he heard the general's distraught voice, put down his things and hurried over.

Qin Jin raised his hand and put it down again, Zhou Quan looked anxiously, after a while Qin Jin said: "Bring Qiao Feng here."

Seeing that Qin Jin was frowning, Zhou Quan didn't dare to delay, so he took his orders and left.Jiang Shi was very surprised: "Why are you looking for Xiaofeng in such a hurry?"

No wonder Jiang asked.Qiao Feng is an orphan, and he grew up with Qin Jin since he was a child. Jiang Shi took pity on him and took good care of him.On the eve of the expedition three years ago, the Jiang family had arranged for Qiao Feng's housewife, and only waited for him to come back to get married. Now Qiao Feng probably went to his father-in-law's house, and his son would go to call someone, which is probably a bit unreasonable.

Qin Yang snorted coldly, showing his sovereignty, but the mother and son should not hear at all, which made him very embarrassed.Look at the eldest son who is getting more and more stable on the opposite side, and then look at the son and daughter who are staring curiously. Immediately blowing their beards and staring: "Eat well, what are you looking at!"

The three brothers and sisters who were watching the play hurriedly lowered their heads to eat, and the people at the table had several concerns, and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with the pillar of the family.

But soon they will know.

Qiao Feng had just arrived at his father-in-law's house, before he could say a few words to his future father-in-law, Zhou Quan hurriedly called him out. He also had a big head, and he didn't know what was wrong with the general.Followed Zhou Quan to the General's Mansion he was familiar with, and saw Qin Jin frowning sitting at the dining table staring at the steamed buns.The whole family stared at him with big eyes and small eyes.

"General, why are you looking for the last general?" Seeing that Qin Jin frowned, he thought something serious had happened.

Qin Jin raised his eyes and saw that Qiao Feng was wearing a moon-colored robe today, and he looked a little more refined. Thinking of his own thoughts, he asked, "Where is he?"

Rao Qiao Feng knew Qin Jin well, so he didn't understand who he was referring to at this moment. He was stunned, his eyes swept over the steamed buns on the table, could it be...

"The general is talking about the little nun?"

As soon as these words came out, except for Qin Jin who gave him a childish look, everyone else dropped their jaws.Nun, when did the pillar of their family have such a heavy taste?Seeing that I will be 22 during the Chinese New Year, I have not married a wife yet, and I am not a womanizer, could it be that I like nuns?The taste is also really heavy.

Jiang's forehead was sweating, and he secretly looked at his son. Seeing that Qin Jin's eyes softened a little, he was not angry, and looked at Qiao Feng to hear what he had to say.

Qiao Feng also felt that it was inappropriate to speak out, he hesitated for a while, seeing the general waiting for an answer, so he replied: "Yesterday, she was allowed to leave on her own."

"Go find it." Qin Jin ordered lightly.

"Looking for it?" Qiao Feng was surprised, "Yesterday, the general said, let her choose..." Finding the person just as soon as the person chooses to leave, isn't it good?

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Jinfei gave him a cold stare, and Qiao Feng shivered. It had been a long time since he felt cold stared at him.Knowing that the general might get annoyed if he asked too many questions, he didn't care about anything else, so he went out to help the general find the little nun.

After walking two steps, I suddenly heard the person behind him talking to himself: "I have to find it and make steamed buns."

Qiao Feng staggered, and hurriedly left the place of right and wrong.Feelings, their generals are looking for people for steamed buns.Qiao Feng burst into tears suddenly, he let his daughter-in-law, who had never been married, not be allowed to look at him, but he had to find a nun to steam steamed buns for the general...

...so heartbroken.
