Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter Thirty-Four Rainbows and Shallow Ripples

"Third sister." Yulian called softly.

"Hmm..." The little lady looked up at her, and found that the eldest sister seemed to have nothing to say, so she continued to silently look at the surrounding carved buildings and waterside pavilions with those bright eyes. The setting sun hangs on the curved corridor in the air, coating it with a layer of beautiful golden brilliance, and two rainbows are reflected in the big eyes of the little lady.

The third sister must have never been out of Hedong, maybe even their small village.

Gaoping, Hedong, because it is the main battlefield area on the northern western front, has been fighting for many years. Drought, locusts, military disasters, and rampant taxes. In such a place, in a village, Sanmei must have never seen such a scenery as Tokyo. Not to mention comparing it with Hedong, this other courtyard of the Fu family can be regarded as a good house even in Tokyo.

The third sister watched so intently that even Yulian ignored her.

Seeing her eyes, Yulian suddenly saw herself a few years ago, when she walked into Li's house in the river. At that time, it was the first time I saw such a bright and beautiful place; I thought that such a place was full of sunshine even in the corners.

The little girl's heart is not deep, and Yulian seems to have empathized with her at this time from the eyes of the third sister.

Yulian sighed softly, and said softly: "Third sister, maybe some paths are predestined, will you grow into a girl who is completely different from me..."

The little girl raised her head, not quite understanding what Yulian said, she looked a little dazed.

The courtyard is very quiet. In the vast backyard, there are only two people, Yulian and Sanmei; there are also Brother Shao and Lao Huang who are in the outer courtyard. There are only four people in the whole mansion. Not to mention anything else, it's a lot of work to clean up.

Guo Shao had no parents, no children, not even a wife, brother or even relatives, so his population was extremely thin. Otherwise, there may be relatives and relatives at this moment to share all this, and at the same time help to enrich the house. But in the current situation, the Guo Mansion is empty.

Yulian reserved a room for Third Sister next to the main house facing the pond in the back garden, and told her: "You will live here from now on, this room belongs to you, clean it up."

The third sister seldom speaks, and occasionally she speaks a few words in the Hedong dialect.

Yulian came out of that room, and wanted to think about how to take care of the yard, Brother Shao didn't have time to take care of it. But for a while, she only felt disturbed, and she felt very tired before it was dark. Walking to the edge of the pond with lotus leaves, she took a look into the water and subconsciously reached out to touch her cheek.

Today's mood is really ups and downs. In the morning, she was really the most exciting and dazzling time in her life, and she is still in a dream, and she has not fully recovered; those scenes that can only be seen in fantasies and dreams, she has experienced all of them in one morning! She looked at herself in the water, always feeling as if she was in a dream. Brother Shao suddenly fulfilled what she thought was an illusory and impossible scene, and she hardly had time to prepare mentally... Although such a wish is so superficial, like a rootless weed in a pond, Yulian still thinks it is very precious and worth remembering.

But why did he fall into this inexplicable sadness in front of him?

Maybe it's hearing that their parents are dead...they really haven't had a good day; maybe it's seeing a father sell his daughter.

At this moment, Guo Shao's voice was suddenly heard: "What are you thinking?"

Yulian hurriedly turned around, only to see Brother Shao walking towards the pond. She quickly smiled, trying to show that she was very happy, but her eyes couldn't be concealed, and there was a little sadness in her eyes.

Sure enough, Guo Shao looked into her eyes carefully: "Why, are you still angry about that? This kind of person is out of sight and out of mind, just ignore it when you drive him away."

Yulian shook her head, suppressed her forced smile, and frowned slightly. The gentle willow-leaf eyebrows, naturally without any trace of trimming, look a bit thick; there are some thin and miscellaneous hairs at the bottom of the eyebrows, which make the eyebrows look a bit rough. Yulian's hair seems to be more developed, and the hair is also delicate and thick.

She was silent for a while, then said, "I'm not thinking about that person."

Guo Shao finished his work for the day, and it was the time when the city was resting. Now that he was free, he became very patient, and his tone was soft: "Then what are you thinking?"

Yulian said: "I will never forget what Guo Lang did for me today."

"En." Guo Shao responded casually, without paying too much attention, and looked at the beautiful orange-yellow ripples on the lake with great interest. Full of natural style, it can make people forget that they are in Tokyo, the capital city.

But immediately I heard Yulian continue to say: "I will repay you. You can treat me as a thing, a thing that you can control as you like...but it only belongs to you, you can't sell me!"

Guo Shao turned around in surprise: "Why do you say that, I won't sell you."

Yulian pursed her lips, "If one day you have to, or get bored, let me die. I just want to live for the last time, I'm really tired..."

"Yulian!" Guo Shao was moved.

Yulian's eyes were full of sadness like the setting sun: "It would be great if I were the third sister... I know I can only be one of your things, but I don't want to be sold again."

Yesterday in that blacksmith's shop, just after reuniting with her, she had already spoken in a confiding tone. Guo Shao found that he didn't fully understand at the time, and he was not a person who was good at talking too much, so he didn't respond, but agreed to her request.

Now she confided in this way for the second time, suddenly Guo Shao seemed to understand: people in ancient times would not say anything too directly, and she confided so boldly, is it actually a confession?

Guo Shao stood there stunned, suddenly at a loss.

The silence fell again, the garden became quiet, and the emotions drifted away gently in the breeze, falling on the water surface and forming circles of shallow ripples.

Guo Shao was moved in his heart, but he didn't know what to say, how to comfort her... Could it be that because he became a military commander, after a few years, he had been completely assimilated and became a pure martial artist?

"Alas..." Yulian sighed softly, and it was obvious that she was very disappointed. Women are always prone to emotions. Before, they were so happy and excited because they had been sulking for several years, regained their self-esteem, and realized their fantasies; they were depressed in less than a day, and seemed to be depressed.

Guo Shao was really suffering and couldn't tell, so he touched his forehead. At any rate, I had eaten a lot of ink in my previous life, so why was my stomach blank on the spot?

Seeing that he stood there in a daze and seemed to have nothing to say, Yulian showed a reluctant smile and said softly, "It's okay, I'll cook for Guo Lang." Guo Shao wanted to say that he really wanted to see her smile from the heart, not such a forced smile. But say this innocuous words?

"etc."

Guo Shao was stunned for a while, and finally regained his composure. He pointed out a dandelion not far away to Yulian.

Yulian looked over as she said, and she saw a plant that had already bloomed with white flowers. When the breeze blew, the small white petals with seeds floated into the air one after another. She didn't know why Guo Shao was suddenly interested in a small grass. Just wondering, his voice sounded next to his ears: "The dandelion grows from the cracks in the stone. It used to be a seed, just like those white flowers floating in the air; where it will fall depends on where the wind blows...

It is very small and cannot choose where it falls; if it is unlucky, it will be like that one falling into a barren rock crevice. But it can choose to survive and grow hard, with only a little water. Look, even if it grows in the crevice of the rock, doesn't it also grow green leaves and bloom beautiful white flowers? "

"Guo Lang..." Yulian carefully looked at his face and his eyes, and suddenly felt that she had been in the blacksmith's shop for many days, but she didn't fully feel everything about him. This man who is often frightened by his armor sometimes has such a gentle face.

Guo Shao's voice became low, as if he was afraid of being eavesdropped by Dandelion, "I understand what you are thinking, you are always struggling with what is wrong with yourself. I want to tell you, it's okay. In my eyes, you are like a beautiful Dandelion. Although you are a bit unfortunate, you have been very tenacious for so many days."

Yulian obviously understood, the blush and shyness on her face had fully revealed her heart. Guo Shao said that she is very good, and it is a convincing compliment, which means that he likes her and does not dislike her.

"Do you really think so?"

Guo Shao nodded without hesitation.

Yulian is actually very smart, she should be able to understand it right away, because this kind of tactful way of confessing is the beginning of her...

"I will repay you." Yulian said quietly with a red face. The words from yesterday seemed to be in the ears, and they were suddenly connected together.

She seemed to want to know Guo Shao more and more. During dinner, her eyes revealed that her thoughts were all on Guo Shao. Now she may not only want to know about Guo Shao's surface, but also want to understand what's inside him.

"Do you have a sister?" Yulian finally couldn't help asking him again.

Guo Shao didn't answer because he didn't know how to answer.

...

Back in the room after dinner, Guo Shao finally saw how she wanted to repay him. She didn't even comb her hair after taking a bath, and slipped into Guo Shao's room quietly in her middle coat.

Just now Guo Shao was sitting on a chair, playing with an inkstone beside him, wondering how much this thing would be worth in modern times. Suddenly seeing Yulian come in like this, she immediately stayed there. It was getting dark outside, so a candle was lit in the house, and she was still unkempt in the middle of the night.

Guo Shao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling nervous immediately. In ancient times, there was indeed no chance to get close to women. All of a sudden he seemed to have forgotten all the experience of his previous life, and he was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe out.

Yulian approached with a blushing face, clutching the hem of her clothes as if waiting for something. But Guo Shao found that somehow, his hands and feet were out of control, as if they were covered with glue, and he couldn't even move. He just sat there staring, like an idiot.

Yulian also seemed very nervous, unable to say anything, she glanced at Guo Shao quietly. After waiting for a while, she gently grabbed his hand. Her palms were a bit rough, but there was a refreshing fragrance on her body.

She tremblingly held Guo Shao's right hand, slowly grasping it into her skirt, and placed it on her smooth leg. In the quiet night, her heavy breathing could be heard at this time.
