Lu Sheng felt very uncomfortable. He knew that even if they got married, he would never win her heart.
He put his things down and wanted to get close to her, but she moved further into the bed and didn't move.
His hand was stretched in the air, but it didn't fall down after all.

That day, Lu Sheng went to the fields as usual, and Qin Shuang stood at the gate of the courtyard looking outside.
During this time, she has been observing.
Yansheng goes to school very early in the morning, and A Niang also gets up very early in the morning. Except for meal time, she spends most of her time in the main hall or in the courtyard.
A'niang watched her closely, the gate of the courtyard was always locked, and the wall was reinforced very high, so it was almost impossible for her to climb out.
She sighed slightly. If the situation continued like this and her belly got bigger, she wouldn't be able to run away at all.
Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door, "Auntie Cheng, is she there?"
A'niang was doing embroidery in the yard. When she heard someone knocking on the door, she hurried over.
“Here it comes!”
When the door opened, it was Tiedan'er's grandmother next door.
"What's wrong? Aunt, is there something urgent?" Seeing Tiedan's grandmother in a hurry, A'niang asked quickly.
Tiedan'er's grandmother walked in and before she could catch her breath, she quickly grabbed A Niang's hand and said, "Hurry up and leave. I don't know what's wrong with my Tiedan. He's crying and making a fuss. It's like he's been possessed by evil spirits. Didn't you make a prescription for reducing fever for Yansheng before? Can you help me take a look and see if Tiedan is confused by the fever!"
"Oh, really? Why is it so serious?!"
After hearing what Tiedan'er's grandmother said, A'niang did not dare to delay and quickly took off her apron and walked out with Tiedan'er's grandmother.
Listening to the conversation between the two people getting farther and farther away, Qin Shuang looked at the half-open door in front of him and fell into deep thought.

In the afternoon, the sky was slightly dark. Qin Shuang was walking alone on an unfamiliar road, feeling a little nervous and a little scared.
She left in a hurry and didn't bring many things with her. She was afraid of alerting the enemy, so she didn't dare to ask too many people. She could only walk around aimlessly with her head down.
She was not very familiar with the roads in the village. She only knew that the village was not big, but it was surrounded by mountains. Moreover, she had no idea how to get out of the village, nor did she know which mountain to climb to reach the town.
Just when she was at a loss, suddenly, a middle-aged man carrying a hoe appeared in front of her. He was wearing a straw hat and muddy boots, and it was obvious that he had just finished working in the fields.
Qin Shuang thought about it, and finally mustered up the courage to step forward, "Old man, please tell me how to get to this town?"
She thought that asking for directions was much better than just walking blindly. If she continued to walk like this, she might not be able to leave the village by morning.
The middle-aged man raised his eyes and looked at her. "Who are you?"
Qin Shuang quickly replied, "I'm a passerby, I came here to pick herbs, I want to return when it gets dark, I don't know how to get to the town, so I'm asking you!"
She forced a smile, but she became more and more nervous.
"Oh!" The man raised his head and smiled, "Are you from another place?"
Judging from their accent, it doesn't sound like the people here.
Qin Shuang nodded, "Yes!"
The middle-aged man looked at the high mountain behind him and said, "Climb over that mountain, take a small path, then climb over two high mountains, pass through a forest, turn around the back of the forest and take two small paths, and you will arrive."
Qin Shuang was confused for a moment. Why was it so far away?
