The carriage went very fast. Li Biao's driving skills were very good. Although it was fast, Jiang Miao didn't feel the bumps. There were no people on the empty official road. Jiang Miao opened the curtain because she felt it was stuffy in the car.
After leaving the boundary of Zhenjiang Prefecture, the scenery outside gradually becomes brighter. Unlike the desolation of Zhenjiang Prefecture, although the surrounding prefectures are also suffering from drought, it is not that severe.
Crops have been planted in the fields, the green wheat seedlings have grown to calf height, and the poplar trees on both sides of the official road are green and tall, creating a lively scene.
Li Biao was dazzled. He had not seen the green trees and red flowers that he was used to for more than half a year.
Li Biao felt complicated in his heart and was in a daze. He almost drove the carriage into a ditch, but Jiang Miao kept staring outside the car and saw this thrilling scene.
"Li Biao, rein in your horse quickly, it's about to fall into the ditch!"
Li Biao suddenly came back to his senses and saw that the wheel was about to sink in. He was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat. He grabbed the reins with his hands and stopped the car hard. The horse made a long "neigh" and raised its two front hooves.
Lift up.
Jiang Miao was unprepared and suddenly bumped into the car. Her back hurt from the collision. She frowned and held the handle of the car tightly.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
Li Biao called out worriedly outside the car door, his tone timid and cautious.
After all, he was distracted while driving and almost got into an accident. If Jiang Miao was hurt, not only would Shen Yanqing not let him go, but Li Biao himself would not be able to forgive himself.
Jiang Miao sat down in the car. She held her head and managed to suppress her dizziness. She almost encountered a car accident. She was still a little frightened. She reluctantly replied after hearing Li Biao's words.
"It's okay, what happened just now?"
"I'm sorry, madam, I was a little distracted looking at the crops outside just now..."
Li Biao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that nothing happened to Jiang Miao.
When Jiang Miao heard his words, she paused while kneading her temples. She saw the lush wheat seedlings outside through the curtains, and then thought of the wasteland of Zhenjiang Mansion. The contrast was so strong that Jiang Miao could understand why he was distracted.
"You drive carefully, and when you get the sweet potato seedlings and Zhenjiang Prefecture starts planting crops, everything will be fine."
"Why."
When Li Biao saw that Jiang Miao not only did not blame him, but also patiently comforted him, his eyes couldn't help but heat up, and this tall and thick man almost shed tears.
He wiped it roughly with his sleeve and agreed angrily, his eyes fixed on the road, not daring to be distracted while driving this time.
Furong Town
As usual, Shen Yingxue sold out the snacks and closed the shop and went home. The business in the shop has been as good as ever recently.
The best-selling foods right now are candied hawthorn slices and other appetizers. After all, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and people are getting restless, so they want to eat something refreshing to relieve tiredness.
She walked home with the silver in her arms and a smile on her face. She didn't go far when she was stopped by someone. The man was wearing tattered linen clothes, his hair was dirty and tangled, and half of his face was covered tightly by his loose hair.
Reality.
He stood in front of Shen Yingxue, and Shen Yingxue could clearly smell the stench on his body. Shen Yingxue couldn't help but take out a handkerchief from her sleeves and cover her mouth and nose, her slender eyebrows frowning tightly.
Zhou Shui'an noticed her disgust, and his numb eyes suddenly turned violent.
"Madam, I have had such a hard time waiting for you!"
His voice was hoarse and cold, with strong hatred. Shen Yingxue was startled and stepped back quickly.
"Zhou Shui'an, why is it you?"
She crossed her arms across her chest in a defensive manner, which deeply hurt Zhou Shui'an.
"I'm here to take you home, come with me..."
With that said, he stepped forward to catch Shen Yingxue. Although Zhou Shui'an was thin, the man's strength was not something Shen Yingxue could compete with.
Her arm was clamped, and the man's hand was so hard that Shen Yingxue felt that her bones were about to break. She turned pale in pain and used her other hand to break him.
"Let me go, I won't go with you..."
"You are my wife. If you don't come with me, who will you? Yingxue, my mother and I miss you very much. We both know that we were wrong and we will never think about taking a concubine again, so Yingxue, come home with me." .”
Zhou Shui'an looked a little crazy and kept repeating that Shen Yingxue should go back with him. Shen Yingxue was afraid and struggled even more with her hands.
"I won't go back. Zhou Shui'an and we have already reconciled. If you pester me again, I will report it to the official..."
"Crack!"
"Bitch!"
When he heard the word "reporter", Zhou Shui'an's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty red light, and his expression became more and more crazy. With a loud bang, his big hand slammed Shen Yingxue's face. He glanced around cautiously from the corner of his eye and relaxed when he found that there was no official official. One breath.
Shen Yingxue's face was red and swollen from the beating, her mouth smelled of rust, and blood oozed from the corners of her mouth.
Her eyes were full of fear, obviously she didn't expect Zhou Shui'an to suddenly go crazy, how could the polite man in the past turn into such a crazy and violent look now.
"You hit me?"
They had been married for five years and Zhou Shui'an had been touched by her finger. Now that they were divorced, Zhou Shui'an seemed to be a different person, full of gloom that was scary.
"I was wrong. When I heard the reporter, I subconsciously hit you. Yingxue, please forgive me. I'll let you fight back, okay?"
Zhou Shui'an took her hand and hit him hard on the face. Shen Yingxue couldn't get away from him, and her palms were numb from the beating. Zhou Shui'an's face was red and swollen, making him even more crazy.
"Enough!"
Shen Yingxue felt furious, and when he showed no signs of stopping, she quickly spoke to stop him.
"Madam, have you forgive me?"
Zhou Shui'an stared at her longingly, not missing any of her expressions, while Shen Yingxue's eyes dodged.
"Let me go first."
"I don't. Let's go home. Mom has already cooked dinner..."
Zhou Shui'an didn't seem to notice her rejection, so he kept talking to himself and pulled Shen Yingxue towards Zhou's shop.
Shen Yingxue was terrified in her heart. She knew that if she was taken away by Zhou Shui'an, she would never be able to get out again with his current madness.
"Help, someone is kidnapping me, please help me..."
Shen Yingxue shouted in despair. There was no one on the street at noon. Shen Yingxue shouted for a long time and only a few people looked over.
"This is my wife, she is having a conflict with me..."
Zhou Shui'an smiled at the people around him, and pulled her tighter with his big hands. Where others couldn't see, his eyes looking at Shen Yingxue became colder and colder, and Shen Yingxue couldn't help but shiver.
"He is not. We have already reconciled. Please kind-hearted people please help me report my official status..."
Zhou Shui'an's anger was too strong, and the two of them obviously knew each other. The people around them didn't want to cause trouble, so they turned away as if they hadn't heard. Shen Yingxue felt desperate in her heart. Could it be that she was really going to be kidnapped by him today? Home?
"Madam, I told you, you can't run away!"
Looking at the pale woman, Zhou Shui'an's eyes became more and more proud.
