Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 209: The Merchant's Daughter Wants to Marry the General 06

After seven days, the big bump on Xie Rong's head had almost disappeared, but it still hurt when touched.

Shen Guli would come here every day and ask, "Have you recovered your memory today?"

After a week of taking herbs and supplementary food, Xie Rong was able to get out of bed and walk. He looked at Shen Guli, who was concerned about him, and said, "During my lunch break, I seemed to have dreamt about something about myself!"

"Oh, really? What did you dream about?"

"I don't remember clearly, it seems like I was from the military." The only thing I remember is the various drills in the army and the fighting on the battlefield.

"I am a soldier, I am not a bad person!" Xie Rong looked into Shen Guli's eyes and said to her very firmly.

Shen Guli nodded in agreement. But this doesn't mean he is a good person. At least his existence is likely to bring disaster to others.

Otherwise, why would he be chased to the point of falling off a cliff and almost dying?

"I asked people to inquire in the town, but there is no news of anyone looking for you, and you are not on the wanted list of the government. There are no strangers coming in and out looking for people within the ten kilometers below the mountain recently."

In order to provide cover for his superiors, Xie Rong led away the pursuers, and in the end he was the only one left, and then he slipped and fell off a cliff.

Those people didn't want to kill him in the first place. When they saw him fall off the cliff, they didn't even have time to take another look at him. They turned around and retreated. So the pursuit they were worried about now didn't exist at all.

Although he knew that no one was going to kill him, he still had to put on a good show to avoid being caught in the act and being discovered. Therefore, Shen Guli specifically asked Ah Niu to go to the town every day to gather information.

Shen Guli was not worried that Xie Rong's amnesia would delay his return, because his superiors who had escaped the encirclement had sent people to look for him, but that would take more than a month.

Xie Rong was choked by Shen Guli's straightforwardness. He had already said that he was not a bad person, so how could he be on the wanted list of the government?

But it’s a good thing that the little girl is so cautious. At least he can stay here and heal his wounds with peace of mind.

Shen Guli was also unambiguous, "Just rest assured and recover here. Even if someone comes to hunt you down, as long as they enter the territory of my villa, I will know it immediately. Then I will hide you in the back mountain. The back mountain is so big, and there are hidden caves, so I will definitely not find you."

Xie Rong bowed and said, "Thank you Miss Shen for saving me."

It turned out that Miss Shen did not despise his unknown identity, and she even thought of a way out for him. It was not what she had said before that she would throw him out if he got into trouble.

No matter how many thanks he said, it would not be enough to express her great kindness to him. Xie Rong secretly swore in his heart that when he recovered, he would repay Miss Shen for her kindness as long as he could do it.

In this way, Xie Rong rested in the farm for another month, and often dreamed about things about himself in the middle of the night.

The mansion where he grew up, the strict rules of life in the military camp, the cruel and brutal battlefield, and the many people around him.

Relatives, friends, comrades-in-arms, superiors, and Miss Shen Guli.

But the memory of Miss Shen always makes Xie Rong feel a little helpless.

He actually dreamed that after he recovered, he brought Miss Shen back home and married her. After that, he went to fight on the border for several years, and he met Miss Shen only a few times.

The point is, she would be his wife.

Although he hadn't seen her for the past week, Xie Rong couldn't help dreaming about her.

He dreamed of Shen Guli wearing a phoenix crown and a red robe and worshipping heaven and earth with him, and dreamed of the inexplicable resentful look of Miss Shen, who became his wife, when she looked at him again, and her empty eyes when she was sick in bed. Every time, Xie Rong couldn't help sweating and waking up in the middle of the night.

In the candleless room, Xie Rong turned over and sat up. He felt that something was wrong with him. Why did he dream about Miss Shen again and again?

Thinking of the dirty jokes those big-time soldiers in the barracks said, he doubted in disbelief whether he was just as they said, having become sensible and beginning to desire women.

Has he come to his senses?

Xie Rong thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. In his dreams, except for the affectionate smile in Miss Shen's eyes on the wedding day, when they met again, those beautiful eyes always made him afraid to look at them for too long.

After finally making it to dawn, Xie Rong got dressed and went out to do some boxing. He worked up a sweat and the depression in his heart was relieved a lot. He finally felt relieved.

After taking a cold shower and changing his clothes, Xie Rong left the yard. Since he was able to walk normally, he went to the kitchen to fetch his meals three times a day.

He was penniless and living in someone else's farm, and he was too embarrassed to ask someone to send someone to serve him. Although Shen Guli insisted on leaving Hongguo in the front yard to take care of her, he would definitely do everything he could do himself.

Shen Guli kept the red fruit as a face-saving measure. As for whether Xie Rong would use it or not, that was his own business and Guli would not force it.

Before reaching the Chuihua Gate, Xie Rong saw Miss Shen, whom he had not seen for many days, coming towards him, dressed in flowers and willows, followed by two maids, as if she was about to go out.

Xie Rong stopped where he was, watching Miss Shen walking towards him step by step.

She wore a warm apricot-colored floor-length skirt with gold-thread embroidery, a smoke-blue brocade chest wrap, and a short blouse made of moon-colored satin embroidered with a jade rabbit.

As he got closer, Xie Rong could see that the hem of her skirt was outlined with golden osmanthus, and the cuffs of her blouse were embroidered with delicate cloud patterns.

Xie Rong lowered his eyes in time to prevent himself from peeking impolitely.

"Miss Shen, are you going out?"

"Yes, where is Mr. Xie going?" A few days ago, Xie Rong learned his name in a dream and told Shen Guli.

Shen Guli agreed to help him find out his background.

He was just a third-rank general. He might be well-known in the capital or the border areas, but in Yonghe Prefecture, especially in Qishan Town, the most remote area of ​​Yonghe Prefecture, it was not easy to find anyone who had heard of his name.

However, Shen Guli calculated that the people looking for him would be here soon.

"I'm going to the kitchen to get breakfast. Where are you going, Miss Shen, so early in the morning?"

Xie Rong stood in front of Shen Guli against the morning light, casting a large shadow. Shen Guli raised her head slightly, "Today is the Ghost Festival. I heard there is a parade of gods in the town, and I want to join in the fun. It may not be safe at night, so I can only set off in the morning!"

"Isn't today only the 14th of July? Tomorrow is the Ghost Festival!"

Shen Guli smiled playfully, "You probably don't know this. The fourteenth is the day when the ghost market opens, and releasing river lanterns is the best way to reach your deceased relatives, so the long street is the busiest tonight. The fifteenth is the day when the ghost market closes, and every household holds a worship ceremony on this day, so the street is not so lively."

When Xie Rong heard such a statement for the first time, he just thought that country people really know how to have fun.
