But after a while, all the butterflies were thrown at Yan Qingqiu's feet, without a single one missing.
Seeing Lingxian coming in, she said, "Since you came here with such sincerity, you should use your own strength to find someone. You are using some opportunistic methods. I really despise you."
"Do you also let An Yan do things without using energy?" Yan Qingqiu wanted to know about this.
"That's natural, otherwise what's the point?" Lingxian said as a matter of course.
"Okay, I'll go out and look for her right now. I don't believe I can't find her." Yan Qingqiu said as he strode out of the house.
Lingxian was very happy to see Yan Qingqiu leave, so that she could be alone with Li Rongsen, but he didn't even raise his eyebrows, as if he was thinking, or maybe just in a daze.
"What are you thinking about?" Lingxian sat down in front of Li Rongsen.
"What does it have to do with you?" Li Rongsen asked her back.
"I want to know, isn't it okay?" Lingxian smiled at him, hoping that her smile could attract him.
But it was obviously in vain, Li Rongsen didn't react at all.
Lingxian was a little frustrated when she saw that Li Rongsen ignored her, but she also knew his character. It had always been like this, and it was not easy to win his heart. He loved the word loyalty the most and was an extremely responsible person, so she could still start from these two points.
Li Rongsen slightly turned his body. He was not used to having a woman next to him staring at him.
Lingxian lowered her eyes and said, "See if there is anything missing here. I will tell them to do it."
"No shortage." Li Rongsen replied.
"Don't be polite to me. You are a guest when you come."
"Didn't you just say that you wanted us to be your servants?" Li Rongsen thought that his memory was not bad.
Lingxian laughed and said, "You are different from him."
"I don't like it when someone snubs my friend. Either I do the same, or forget it."
The smile on Lingxian's face began to stiffen. She stood up and said, "There is some connection between us, but you don't remember it. But I always hope that you can come and continue our relationship."
Li Rongsen didn't say anything.
"I didn't lie to you. We had a deep connection and were almost going to get married, but you were kidnapped and now you've become like this. You should be suspicious of the people around you, especially that guy named Yan Qingqiu. He has bad intentions." Lingxian said as she conjured up a scene in front of Li Rongsen's eyes.
That was the scene when Li Rongsen had been here before, indicating that he had been here before and had a connection with this place.
But Li Rongsen still lowered his eyes and said, "You can go out now."
Lingxian put away his illusion and couldn't help feeling depressed. He was really a stone that wouldn't listen to anything. But then he thought that he didn't need to be so anxious. They couldn't find An Yan. This was her territory after all, and she had the final say. So he left first.
Li Rongsen then stood up and looked around. Since he came here for An Yan, he naturally had to find her.
An Yan didn't know they were here. She just planted the Youyue Grass with the old woman. Today she planted a large patch of it and they could collect it when the moon rose at night. But she didn't know how many plants there would be.
I planted a large area yesterday, but only harvested one by night.
The conditions here are not good, so it is difficult to make the Youyue grass bloom. It all depends on An Yan's will to barely produce one or two plants.
The old woman came over and said to An Yan, "How many plants do you want to collect?"
"One hundred and eight will do." An Yan answered her, and stood up and walked to the other end of the wooden rack to knock on the wood, saying, "Let's see if we can harvest a few more tonight. I'm making some adjustments."
"I can't believe a girl like you can do so much, even making a table."
"This is still a small matter." An Yan chuckled.
The old woman came over and said to her, "I'm going out to get some water and will be back in a moment."
"Let me help you. I'll fetch two more buckets so you don't have to go out every day." An Yan said as she stood up. She saw that she was old and it was hard for her to fetch water by herself.
The old woman smiled and said, "I would like to bring back a few more buckets, but there is no place to store water."
"Wait a minute, I'll make a few wooden barrels." An Yan said as she went to the corner to pick up wood, and then started making wooden barrels, making four in one breath.
"I see that you are very valuable, and I thought that you must have someone to serve you, but I didn't expect that you are so good at work." The old woman really admired An Yan.
"Wait for me for a moment, I'll make a shoulder pole." An Yan said as he picked up a large wooden stick and started polishing it.
The old woman went inside to get some dried sweet potatoes and started soaking steamed buns. She said to An Yan outside, "Why don't you just eat and go over to fetch water? You'll save yourself some energy later."
An Yan turned her head to look inside and sighed inwardly, thinking that the conditions here were really harsh. It would be strange if she had any strength after eating these things all day long.
But the old woman was used to it after all, and she didn't dare to make any other requests, for fear that Lingxian would get angry and make her suffer.
An Yan asked her: "Can't we get some vegetables or something like that?"
The old woman was startled at first, and then said, "There is a yard nearby with vegetables, but I never go there. First, I don't know how to cook, and second, it is a forbidden area."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Tell me where you are, and I'll pick some vegetables for dinner."
"It's not far from here. It's on the way to fetch water."
"Okay, you can show it to me later."
"That is a forbidden area. No one can enter." The old woman said to her seriously.
But An Yan never ignored these, and she was sure that no one would find out. Eating dry sweet potatoes all day long made her feel so dry that she always wanted to change her taste and eat some fresh vegetables.
Seeing that she was silent, the old woman thought she was afraid, so she called her over to eat, saying, "Come, eat, it will fill your stomach at least."
"Let's go fetch some water for a while." An Yan said as she put the ready-made shoulder pole on her shoulder and picked up the two empty buckets. It felt pretty good.
The two of them went out together to fetch water.
This is a strange place, like a desert. It is not too far from the house to the place where water can be obtained. There is only a small path. There are no trees around and no pedestrians passing by. It seems to be isolated from the world.
An Yan and the old woman carried the load back and forth several times, and it was almost time for dinner, with the sky filled with sunset glow.
An Yan looked up and said, "The sunset here is really beautiful."
"You'll get bored if you see it too much," said the old woman.
"Where is the forbidden area you mentioned?" An Yan asked her as she put down the burden on her shoulders.
"Why, are you really going?"
"Do you want to eat vegetable hotpot?" An Yan asked her back.
The old woman was naturally greedy. Anything other than dried sweet potatoes and steamed buns would attract her. She looked around and said, "If I'm discovered..."
"I won't say that you told me. I will bear everything on my own." An Yan assured her.
"In that case, I'll tell you. From the place where we were fetching water just now, take the well as a reference, step back fifty steps, and then stamp your feet three times, and that place will appear."
"Is that so?" An Yan wanted to know if there was anything special that needed special attention.
The old woman said, "You will hear some strange noises when you go in, but don't worry. He won't come out to hurt you because he is locked in the house and can't come out. Just pick the vegetables and leave. Don't let the maids inside find you."
An Yan secretly took note of it, then picked up the bucket and said, "Let's go back first."
