To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 136 I am his wife

  Shi Yan folded his hands on his chest, with a gloomy expression: "Instead of worrying about your beard, why not worry about your current situation."

   "Nothing is as important as my beard, what on earth have you guys done?" The bearded man obviously couldn't accept the painful blow of waking up with his beard gone, and roared heart-piercingly.

   As for the situation?

   Is there anything worse than losing your beard?

Ko'er was not happy: "What else can you do, isn't it just to cut your beard. After all, you are going to be sent to Jinlinwei Prison. Could it be that you want to use your beard to cover up your appearance? Let me tell you, you have committed a crime. It's impossible to escape..."

  Jin Linwei?

  The bearded man was shocked by these three words, and heard what the delicate little girl said about committing a crime——

  He jumped up suddenly: "Who committed a crime!"

  Hong Dou curled her lips: "Yo, it's not you who co-authored and robbed us on the way to Beijing."

  The bearded man blushed suddenly: "What I robbed was real money!"

   It was that idiot Xiao Qi who robbed Elbow.

  Wait, what about Xiaoqi?

  The bearded man looked around, his face turned from red to blue: "What are you doing to Xiao Qi?"

   "Don't worry, that black boy is fine. It's you, come with me." Shi Yan stretched out his hand and pressed the bearded shoulder.

  Whiskered man tried his best to break free, but found that the hand that seemed to be floating lightly on his shoulder weighed a thousand catties, and he couldn't get free at all.

   "You really didn't hurt Xiaoqi?" The bearded man asked, not caring what was going to happen to him.

   "Why do we hurt a half-grown child, he is a victim." Shi Yan said coldly.

   Victim?

  The bearded man heard something wrong: "What victim?"

  Shi Yan pointed to Xiuyue who was standing in the corner: "Hei boy is her nephew. He has been lost since he was a child, and he has been unable to find him for many years. It turned out that he was snatched by you bandits and became a little bandit—"

   "Nonsense, Xiaoqi is obviously Uncle Yu's nephew—" the bearded man retorted excitedly, realizing that he had made a slip of the tongue and shut up suddenly.

   "Which one is Uncle Yu?" Shi Yan asked.

  The bearded man kept silent.

  Shi Yan sneered: "Since you don't want to talk about it, follow me to Jinlinwei. I think you will be happy to talk about it when you get there."

  Whiskered man's expression changed suddenly when he heard Jin Linwei.

  Even though he is a bandit, he also knows how powerful Jin Linwei is. If he enters, there will be death and no life, and he will suffer all kinds of inhuman torture.

   "You guys, why did you send me to Jinlinwei?" The bearded man panicked, "Even if I am a bandit, why don't you send me to Shuntian Mansion?"

  He is a bandit, so he is not qualified to go to Jinlinwei.

  Hongdou chuckled: "Why? Just because our girl's father is the commander of the Jinlin Guard. Why don't you be sent to the Imperial Prison of the Jinlin Guard? Why don't the fat go to outsiders' fields?"

  Keer tugged on the sleeve of the red bean: "That's not how the fat and water don't flow to outsiders."

  The bearded man was already frightened, and murmured: "The female devil is the daughter of the commander of the Jinlin Guard?"

  Shi Yan increased his hand strength to slap his beard soberly: "I advise you to explain the ins and outs clearly. Anyway, you are dead or alive, and the black boy will be taken care of by his aunt in the future. Do you think it is necessary to hold on?"

  The bearded man is right, if Xiao Qi is that ugly woman's nephew, and he is Xiao Qi's eldest brother, then they become a family.

  Why did he hold back?

  At this moment Luo Sheng walked in.

   "Xiu Gu stays here, you guys go out first."

  After Hongdou and the others went out, Luo Sheng sat down calmly, and said to Xiuyue: "If you want to ask anything, just ask."

  Xiuyue hesitated for a moment.

  Luo Sheng smiled: "Do you need me to go out too?"

  Xiuyue struggled for a while, then slowly shook her head: "Girl, you don't have to go out."

  Luo Sheng's lips deepened into a smile.

  Frozen three feet is not a day's cold, Xiuyue bears the secret of the survivors of the destruction of the palace, and she is very wary.

   And this small trial, it can be seen that Xiuyue already has a certain trust in her subconsciously.

  Perhaps, Xiuyue hopes more than anyone else that she is Princess Qingyang.

   "Tell me about Uncle Yu." Xiuyue tried her best to speak calmly.

"Uncle Yu, he took the initiative to defect to our Heifeng Village twelve years ago. He said he was separated from his family, and a grown man didn't know how to feed a baby, so he went to the village to find a way to survive... Uncle Yu is capable of writing and martial arts, I know Uncle Yu taught me a few big characters..."

  Luo Sheng and Xiuyue listened quietly to the bearded man's story about "Uncle Yu", and gradually outlined the man's appearance.

   "He, he can use leaves to play music?" When hearing this, Xiuyue couldn't help breaking the silence.

   "That's right, Uncle Yu is very powerful, even an ordinary leaf can play a nice tune." The bearded man's eyes lit up, and he had fallen into blind worship of "Uncle Yu".

  Luo Sheng suddenly discovered that the bearded man was a bit ugly after losing his beard, but he looked like he was in his early thirties at most.

   "How much older is Uncle Yu than you?" With this discovery, Luo Sheng asked.

  The bearded man withdrew his thoughts and smiled embarrassedly: "Uncle Yu is only eight years older than me."

  Eight years older?

  Luo Sheng frowned.

  She remembered that Xiuyue's fiancé was in his early twenties twelve years ago, and if he was still alive, he would only be thirty-three or four-year-old.

   "You—" Luo Sheng frowned and looked at his bearded beard.

  The bearded man was even more embarrassed: "I'm actually only twenty-five..."

  Luo Sheng was always calm and composed, but he was rarely startled, and couldn't help but take a deep look at the bearded man.

  Are you only twenty-five years old? This is really not like ah.

  The bearded man was obviously no stranger to such gazes, and he dared not speak out with a dark face.

  When he grows a beard to cover his handsome face?

  When he was seventeen, he was often mistaken for thirty, so he grew a beard in anger.

   "Can you sing the tune he often plays?" Xiuyue asked tremblingly after being silent for a long time.

   "Let me think about it." The bearded man recalled and hummed.

  It was a ditty song that went to nowhere after being sung by the bearded man, but the sweetness and sadness in it couldn't escape.

  Xiuyue had tears in her eyes, and asked tremblingly, "He, when did he go?"

  The bearded man also became sad: "Uncle Yu went there five years ago, and he specifically told me to take good care of Xiao Qili before he went. Where did you hide Xiao Qi?"

  He looked at Xiuyue with suspicious eyes: "Are you really Xiao Qi's aunt? What's the relationship with Uncle Yu?"

  Xiuyue covered her face with her hands, her shoulders were trembling all the time.

  She didn't make any sound, but with a big heart like a beard, she could sense the grief from the bottom of her heart in the ugly woman in front of her.

  The bearded man fell silent.

  Luo Sheng didn't make a sound either.

   After such a long time, Xiuyue slowly put down her hands, revealing a tear-stained face.

  She said softly, "I am his wife."

  At this moment, Luo Sheng's eyes suddenly got wet.
