After returning to the room, Su Man said that her arm hurt and asked Chunyu to rub it with medicinal wine. Then she said that she had sprained her waist and asked Dongyu to massage her.
Whether the strength was light or heavy, or the medicinal wine was thick or thin, Su Man always had something to say.
After all this trouble, when Su Man said she wanted to rest for a while, the two of them left quickly, fearing that Su Man would cause trouble again.
The door was closed. Su Man looked out through the bed curtains. After making sure that the two of them didn't notice her, she immediately unfolded the paper.
"One day without seeing you feels like three years"
???
Su Man read it over and over again and had to accept this cruel reality. There was only this one line of words on it.
Su Man was speechless. What the hell is this? I spent all this time trying to get this?
Even Su Man, who was calm and composed, was still irritated. "It's okay if he's just being extravagant at other times, but why is he still being extravagant at this time?"
She crumpled the paper into a ball, angrily lifted the bed curtain and planned to throw it into the incense burner to destroy it.
"Ma'am, where are you going?"
Beside the bed, Ao Xi stood with his arms folded, smiling like a cat that had stolen some fish.
"My dear lady, why are you saying that your husband is being extravagant for no reason?"
It turned out that Ao Xi had just planted the flower when he was bored. He had been waiting there since he sneaked into the South Garden, and only followed Su Man when she appeared.
In other words, Su Man spent a lot of time and effort to get a useless note.
Su Man suppressed the urge to curse and smiled, "So the village chief had a plan in advance. It was me who was stupid."
Ao Xi smiled. He raised his hand and lifted the end of Su Man's hair. "If you say my wife is stupid, then there are no smart people in the world."
If Ao Xi had done this in the past, it would have been uninhibited and romantic, but now...
Su Man looked at Ao Xi's beard and the color on his face that she didn't know how it got there, and only four words came to her mind: very eye-catching.
Fortunately, Ao Xi also knew what was important and what was not. After a few jokes, he turned to talk about the rescue plan.
"The Fang Mansion is heavily guarded. Even I took three days to find this place. It's fine if I'm alone, but if I bring you along, it will be extremely dangerous. If we get caught, not only will you be unable to escape, you'll also be charged with colluding with bandits. Then, neither the Fang Mansion nor the Xia Family will tolerate you."
Su Man heard the probing tone in Ao Xi's words and squinted her eyes at him, "Why? The village chief finds me too troublesome and doesn't want to take me back with him?"
Ao Xi was caught off guard and was stunned for a moment. He smiled awkwardly and said, "My lady, what are you talking about? How could I possibly abandon you?"
Su Man was not fooled by him. Her face was expressionless. "Master, there is no need to test me. Since the day I entered the Black Wind Village, I have already decided that I belong to the Black Wind Village. Unless you doubt me, I have nothing to say. Since ancient times, women have been like duckweed, hoping to find a lifelong support. I thought I had found it, but I didn't expect..."
Having said that, Su Man sighed softly.
This move of turning the tables not only made Ao Xi lose all his suspicion, but also made him feel uncomfortable. He blamed himself for repeatedly testing Su Man's feelings even though he knew her feelings. He quickly coaxed her, "My lady, don't be sad. This is all your fault. When I return to the village, I will definitely apologize to you."
Although Ao Xi was active in the Black Wind Village, in terms of love, apart from going down the mountain with his brothers to hang out with a few female confidantes, he had never seriously experienced such a gentle and soft knife. He didn't dare to say anything else and seriously discussed the plan with Su Man.
"Although it's difficult to hide during the day, once night falls, the guards at Fang Mansion will increase threefold, and there will be special people watching during shift changes. If you want to leave, you have to wait until after noon."
This was similar to Su Man's previous guess. She nodded and said, "Okay, the village chief is a martial arts master. Although it is dangerous, I believe that the village chief can get me out."
Ao Xi was delighted, but before he could say anything, Su Man changed the subject, "But I can't leave now."
Ao Xi almost snapped his waist at this turn of events, and when he spoke again, he was tinged with anxiety. "Is it because of what I said just now? I was blinded by greed just now. My wife, please don't blame me. I will never say such nonsense again. From now on, no matter what my wife does, as long as you don't speak, I won't believe anyone else."
"The village chief has misunderstood. I am not leaving because I am angry with you. It is because if I leave, it will alert the enemy, and it will be difficult for us to investigate Master Zhou."
Ao Xi thought for a few seconds before reacting, "Investigating Master Zhou? What did my wife learn during her time at the Fang Mansion?"
"Yes, Master Zhou..."
After a moment, Su Man told Ao Xi everything she had learned and her own guesses in the past few days.
Ao Xi's expression was also solemn after hearing this, and it was obvious that he also smelled the conspiracy behind it.
"So, while Fang Qingshan hasn't turned his attention to Black Wind Village yet, let's first check if there are any suspicious areas around. If I suddenly disappear and Fang Qingshan sets his sights on Black Wind Village, it will be difficult to do anything then."
Ao Xi knew that Su Man was right, but he was still a little worried about leaving her here alone. "Since Fang Qingshan has become suspicious of you, what if he wants to do something bad to you..."
"Not for the time being."
Su Man said firmly, "At least I still have a father who walks around. Even if he doesn't care about the Xia family, he is afraid of rumors. It's not too late for me to leave after you find out the news."
After a brief struggle, Ao Xi agreed to Su Man's proposal, "Okay, I will find out the news as soon as possible and come back to pick you up. Take care of yourself."
"rest assured."
"I..."
Ao Xi suddenly fell silent, listened carefully, and whispered, "Someone is coming. I'm leaving first. Wait for me."
