[Comprehensive] Cannon Fodder Terminator

Chapter 249 - The 27th Cannon Fodder -

Tao Mi smiled in her heart, as long as someone who knows a little bit of knowledge knows that she is just a fallacy, only a half-assed Ying Huada can't react.

"Okay, let's keep working hard, or it's like some people say that you're going to starve to death. You know that only hard work will pay off. People who can only recite poems and don't even understand the meaning , Of course I'm going to starve to death." Said Tao Mi walked to Liu Lantong and continued to do the work in hand.

Liu Lantong winked playfully at Taomi, it was really interesting, Ying Huada was unlucky to meet Taomi, but it was his own fault, he could memorize a few poems and use them indiscriminately, now he is lucky, he must have been ridiculed.

Everyone else started working, and there was only one person, the first person to talk to Ying Huada just now. Her name was Ma Yinghong, and she was also a girl from Lingxi Village. Well, there is not only an older sister in the family, but also a younger brother.

The family values ​​boys over girls, she is not the first, nor is she the youngest, she is not valued at home, but she does have a cheerful appearance outside, she can say a few words to anyone she sees, no other girl should Some are afraid of life.

She likes Ying Huada, but she has never told anyone about it. She just likes Ying Huada's temperament of a scholar, which is completely different from other boys, so every time Ying Huada comes, she They would take the initiative to talk to him, in order to let Ying Huada remember her.

She was very happy that Ying Huada came today, and she still talked to him as before, but she didn't expect Taomi to talk about Ying Huada like that today, and said that he doesn't work hard in limbs and doesn't distinguish grains, he is a scholar, and he has to share What does Qing Wugu do, and he doesn't farm the land, so only those people who don't know how to make progress would rather plant the land in the soil for a lifetime. When she grows up, she must leave Lingxi Village.

I heard that there are brick and tile houses in the county, but she has never seen them before, and she will definitely live in a brick and tile house in the future.

She glanced at Taomi's direction with a complicated expression. At this time, she was chatting and laughing with Liu Lantong, and she lowered her head and was busy with her work.

What Taomi and Ying Huada said did not hide anything from anyone, and there were quite a few people present. Shen Cheng and his wife naturally knew about it, and they asked when they returned home at noon, "Fang Fei, I heard that you and Ying Huada had a quarrel today. ?”

"Dad, where did you hear that? It's not a quarrel, it's just a matter of disagreement. I successfully said that your daughter won him. Looking at his appearance when he left, he seemed to be running away. I think it was But I feel ashamed as a little girl." Taomi said triumphantly, in the eyes of Shen Cheng and his wife, she is just like a young daughter who is young and competitive.

"That's good. It's better not to quarrel. Although Ying Huada's child is not good at farming, he still has some knowledge. Our ten villages and eight stores are only this educated person."

Shen Cheng was a bit regretful when he was talking, Tao Mi also lowered his head and began to eat, Shen Cheng represented the thinking of some people in this era, they yearn for knowledge but dare not do anything, they can only silently admire those who have knowledge People, if it wasn't for Shen Cheng and others who turned a blind eye and just relied on Ying Huada to hold the book and say something sad, would he still be able to live safely until now?

In the afternoon, the sun was very hot, so Shen Cheng didn't let Tao Mi go to the field with him. Shen Cheng was the village head, a cadre in the establishment, and he was paid every month, not short of a few centimeters from the little girl.

Taomi thought for a while, and went out to go up the mountain. Yesterday she was with Liu Lantong and didn't have time to feel it carefully. Today she felt it, whether there is really aura.

She was originally a cultivator, and her desire for spiritual energy was like a fish's desire for water. She quickly reached the top of the mountain, sat under a tree, and repeated the movements she had been familiar with before.

With luck all over her body, after half an hour, Tao Mi managed to feel the presence of spiritual energy again, and because of this spiritual energy, she felt comfortable all over.

Hehe, although there are few auras, as long as she has them, she will not be afraid of anything. Her requirements are not high, as long as the auras can be used to transform the tendons and wash the marrow with the cooperation of the elixir, of course it is the kind of High-grade pills are not the kind of pills that improve the physique of animals in the space.

There have been several worlds without spiritual power, and Taomi can’t remember when the last world with spiritual power was. She sat on the top of the mountain all afternoon when she was happy, and ran down the mountain in a hurry when the sun was about to set , The speed is much happier than when I went down the mountain with Liu Lantong yesterday, so I simply take it all because she absorbed the effect of spiritual power.

It's nightfall, and Taomi has been doing weekly exercises in her body. Although she hasn't successfully drawn Qi into her body yet, and she hasn't washed her marrow yet, what should be done should be done, right?

Just after dinner and entering the room, I heard Shen's mother's voice from outside, "Lan Tong is here, Fang Fei is in the room, go in."

"Okay auntie."

Liu Lantong grabbed Taomi's arm as soon as she came in, "Go, I'll take you to a place."

Speaking of which, Liu Lantong dragged Taomi out, and talked to Shen's mother in the yard, but Shen's mother didn't care. They have been running around in this village since they were young, and now they don't have to worry about being in danger. .

Liu Lantong pulled Taomi all the way to the river, the sky was already dark, Liu Lantong pointed to the fish in the river and said, "Look at the fish here."

"Fish here? What's so strange?" It's normal to have fish in the river.

"I'm talking about the species in this fish. It seems that there are a lot more. I heard from my grandfather that there were only Hualien in it before. Now it seems that there are not only Hualien."

Hearing what Liu Lantong said, Taomi also set her eyes on the river surface. According to the afterglow of the sun, it can be seen that the fish active below the water surface are indeed not only Hualien, but also carp, and even a small amount of silver carp. You can also see a few loaches drilling around.

A few years ago, during the famine, the wild boars on the mountain ate everything, not to mention the fish in this river, many of which were killed. Later, the old village chief said that this river belongs to the public property, and no one is allowed to fish in the future. , although there are a few petty thieves who go to steal fish, but it can be regarded as no one hunts them wantonly, and the number of fish has gradually increased in the past two years.

Shen Cheng carried out a large-scale fishing every summer and distributed the fish fairly to everyone, but he never noticed when the fish inside changed.

In the memory of the original owner, the only fish caught last year was Hualien. Why are there so many kinds of fish suddenly?

"Lan Tong, what do you think?"

"I came to ask you because I didn't know. These fish are so big, they don't look like newly put fry, and who has spare money to put fry in at this time." Liu Lantong pointed in the direction of the village entrance Said, "Our creek is downstream. I suspect that these fish all swim from upstream. I dare not do it alone, so I want you to go and see with me."

"Just say that you are looking for me to embolden you, why not?"

"Hey, then are you going with me or not? Don't you feel sad when I got lost and was eaten by the big bad wolf." She just came here for only a week, and she has never been out of the village. It looks like this The river is not short, so what if she can't find her way back.

Tao Mi smiled, "Okay, I will go with you tomorrow, but it may be in the afternoon, and I will go to the field in the morning."

"I know, I know, I'm going to the field in the morning, so it's settled, I'll come to you after lunch tomorrow."

The natural world is a very miraculous existence. After tens of millions of years, a single-celled organism can become a variety of organisms. It was once mentioned that all things belong to one family. This is not unfounded.

In the morning, Taomi went to the field as usual, Ying Huada didn't come today, I think he won't show up for a while, but it's true, after losing such a big face, how could someone like him want face again.

In the afternoon, I walked along the creek with Liu Lantong. I had already left the village, but I still didn't find anything. It was still early in the weather, so the two of them kept walking like this.

Seeing that it was getting farther and farther away from the village, and there was no one around, and there was nothing else except the creek, "We... this is going up the mountain."

"That's right, I never thought that this brook actually flows down from the mountain."

Liu Lantong thought that Taomi might not know what was going on with this creek. Looking at the creek next to it, it was no longer as wide as in the village. The types of fish in it were probably similar to those in the village. kind.

"Forget it, let's go back. We are not scientists who study geography, and we can't find any clues. Anyway, we can have more fish to eat when fishing in summer."

Liu Lantong said a little decadently, she originally wanted to find out where these fish came from, and after she found out, people in Lingxi Village would be able to eat more fish, it seems that her efforts were wasted, nothing Not found.

Tao Mi nodded, the two of them were about to walk back, when they saw a person from a distance, staggering, as if about to fall down, were they drunk?

"I'll go take a look."

As Liu Lantong said so, Taomi still went with her. If he was really a drunk, it didn't seem good for a little girl to go and see by herself.

When I walked in, I saw that there was indeed a man lying on the ground, wearing a green military uniform and carrying a big backpack on his back. Was it a soldier?Liu Lantong turned him over, his face was miserable, his mouth|mouth was dry and cracked, and he was still holding a water jug, Taomi saw that it was out of water, if he hadn't been holding this just now, she wouldn't have regarded him as an alcoholic.

"Is he suffering from heat stroke?" Liu Lantong looked at Taomi and said doubtfully, it's not yet the summer solstice, and the weather is not hot yet, why did he faint.

"Maybe it's due to lack of water." It doesn't look like heatstroke.

"Lack of water?" Liu Lantong said in shock. They were walking along the creek, and the distance from here to the creek was only a few hundred meters. If they were all dehydrated, then this luck was out of luck.

Taomi took the water bottle to the stream and filled it up, and secretly replaced the water with the water in the space. Who knows if the water will be dry, even if it doesn't save people, it can't hurt people.

When she came back, the man had already opened his eyes, but he was too weak to get up, Taomi gave the water bottle to Liu Lantong, Liu Lantong fed him a few sips, but he was still a little unwilling, and kept turning his head, Taomi He said, "The water is clean."

Seeing that he was doing well, Liu Lantong asked, "Why don't you find some water to drink?"

"None of those are mine."

"Ah?" Liu Lantong felt that his head was a bit insufficient. He didn't drink the brook water, not because he disliked the dirty water in the brook, but because these were not his. What's the reason?

This sentence suddenly broke into Taomi's mind, this sentence suddenly broke into Taomi's mind, this is what soldiers in this era of feelings think, this stream is not his, so he doesn't drink the water in it, 666.

Liu Lantong also thought about it and suddenly smiled, and threw the water bottle into his arms, "You drink it if you don't drink it, just find a way to return the water you drank to the people, let's go."

Taomi and Liu Lantong left, Wang Liguo looked at the kettle behind for a while, and finally unscrewed the lid of the kettle, drank all the water in it, then looked around, finally stood up like a normal person, and followed Tao Mi and Liu Lantong walked in the direction they left.

As soon as Taomi and the others arrived at the village, they were told that the son of the old Wang family who was a soldier had returned. The two of them looked at each other, it couldn't be such a coincidence.

Oh, by the way, she remembered that during the life of the original owner, Liu Lantong married a soldier in the village, and Lingxi Village now has hundreds of households, many people went to join the army back then, and they either returned or died Over there, now only the sons of the Wang family are soldiers.

Could this be the person Liu Lantong was going to marry in the future? I have to say that their meeting was very good, but the man just now was a little dull.

"You don't understand, dullness is a man's characteristic. In ancient times, it was called Chunliang, in this era, it was called obedient, and in the future, it is called stupid and cute. In every age, people like this kind of man, and they are very popular." Mimi's voice rose at the right time , Tao Mi disagrees.

"I also like stupid and cute ones, but I don't like the ones that are too simple." Just like that, I was almost exhausted and didn't drink water, just because of some so-called principles, although this kind of principle is very worth advocating in this era, But she still likes little wolf dogs, she is simple to her wife, and like a wolf to outsiders, she can protect those who need protection.

"Oh, time has changed. The kind of person you mentioned is called scheming in this era. No, it is called scheming in any age. It can't be said to be stupid and cute at all."

Well, no, no.

Tao Mi and Liu Lantong went home separately, and there was no dream all night.

As the saying goes, spring rain is as expensive as oil. It can be seen that the busy season in spring is short, and the spring rain is precious. In the blink of an eye, all the seeds have been sown in the land, and rural people have time to relax after the busy season.

Originally, Taomi didn’t need to go to the ground every day, so she went to the top of the mountain every day. She was going to wash her marrow these days, but there was no suitable time, but now that the busy farming is over, someone came to the mountain to find someone There are no more wild animals. Although those people are also sneaky, it is not good for her to be discovered.

"Guess what I found?" Mimi flew out from a distance and said,

"what?"

"I saw a dark river, just walk along the stream at the entrance of the village, there is a dark river, you don't want to wash your marrow in the space, you are worried that there is no place for you to wash your marrow, I think there That's right."

"Really? Then you can go and have a look."

Taomi followed the creek and found the dark river that Mimi mentioned. It was under a hill and narrower than the creek at the entrance of the village. However, the water flow was not very fast and there were many fish in it. The reason why there are so many fish at the entrance of the village is that they all swam from here.

Just now she saw several big rocks at the entrance, which were originally blocked by the stones, and these fish could not swim. This year's spring has more rain than previous years, and the stream has more water, so some fish can swim over.

"More than that, let me tell you, I also found some big rocks over there. It seems that those fish were originally tied between these two piles of rocks. This is a dark river and no one found it, so they were preserved. , Over the past few years, it has grown exponentially because no one has salvaged it."

Mimi talked on the sidelines, Taomi nodded, and thanks to the unusually large spring rains this year, these small fish were able to swim out, and were later caught and eaten by humans, and the food chain continued without breaking.

I stayed in the dark river for an afternoon, and just after dinner, I was dragged by Liu Lantong to chat together. The two sat under a tree like this, watching the sunset in the distance, and talked about many things. Over the past month Since then, their relationship has gotten better and better, and it is rare for Taomi to meet someone who is more like-minded.

"By the way, today I heard Xiaoyu and the others say that Ma Yinghong and Wang Liguo are going on a blind date. I think Ma Yinghong seems to like Ying Huada quite a bit. How could she agree to go on a blind date with Wang Liguo?" Liu Lantong looked at the sky and said casually.

"How do I know this, but I think it's impossible for her and Ying Huada." Not to mention that in the memory of the original owner, there was no such thing as Ma Yinghong between her and Ying Huada. Da was told by her that she hadn't been to Lingxi Village for a long time.

The distance between the two villages is not far, nor is it close. If Ying Huada hadn't come here, Ma Yinghong would have been gossiped if he took the initiative to find him. You should know that the public's comments can kill you at any time. alone.

"Why?" She could tell that day, although there were several people around Ying Huada at that time, but Ma Yinghong was the first person to talk to Ying Huada, and she could see the red heart in her eyes. come out.

Tao Mi smiled, "I'm guessing too, who knows what will happen in the future."

Tao Mi looked at Liu Lantong, and found that she was staring at a certain place, and followed her gaze, "Hehe, Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here."

Liu Lantong dragged Taomi to hide behind a house some distance away, and saw that Ma Yinghong and Wang Liguo had already walked over and stood under the tree they were sitting on just now, "Comrade Ma Yinghong, if you have anything to say to me, just let me know." explain."

"I don't want to have sex with you." Ma Yinghong raised her head, hesitated, but she still spoke while looking at Wang Liguo's face.

"Ok?"

Seeing that Wang Liguo didn't understand very well, he said, "I don't want to date you. I already have someone I like. This time it's a blind date arranged by my parents. I have no choice but to agree to try it with you. I hope you can understand. "

"I understand, but..."

"No, but, I know you are very good. You are the only soldier who came out of our Lingxi Village. It's my fault. I'm not good enough for you. You just need to go back and tell your parents that you don't like me, is that okay? "

There was pleading in Ma Yinghong's eyes, and Wang Liguo couldn't bear to refuse, but there were so many things that a person couldn't bear to refuse in his life, he couldn't refuse all of them.

Wang Liguo scratched his head, "But I have already told my parents that I am very satisfied with you, how can I go back on my word?" Seeing what the Horse Shadow Queen wanted to say, Wang Liguo then suggested, "Why don't I tell my parents that it is you?" If you don't see me, can you see it?"

"Okay, as long as we can get along with each other, we can do whatever we want." Ma Yinghong has no ability to think now because she is not with Wang Liguo. Naturally, Wang Liguo does whatever she wants, and she didn't see Wang Liguo's seriousness in a flash. He and Liu Lantong could see clearly because of their perspective, "Thank you, you are a good person, if I don't have someone else in my heart, I will definitely marry you."

"It's okay, but I still want to wish you happiness." Wang Liguo said generously. Just as he was about to leave, a voice came from the side, "Did you look for me?"

Ma Yinghong smiled when she saw the person coming, "You are really here, I thought you would not come."

"Who is this?" Wang Liguo asked with interest when he saw Ying Huada's literary eyes.

"He is Ying Huada, the most educated person in our villages." Ma Yinghong said with her head lowered, and everyone could see that she was shy.

Wang Liguo nodded knowingly, stretched out a hand and said, "Hi, I'm Wang Liguo. I'm often in the army. I haven't been back for a long time so I don't know you. I'm sorry."

Ying Huada glanced at Wang Liguo's hand, but ignored it. He turned to look at Ma Yinghong, "Why did you ask me to come? If it's okay, I'll leave first."

Ma Yinghong looked up at Ying Huada, then at Wang Liguo next to her, and said hesitantly, "I, I'm looking for you, actually, actually..."

"I'm leaving first, you guys talk slowly." Wang Liguo saw that Ma Yinghong was embarrassed to say it because he was present, so she turned around and left after saying that. When she left, she took a special look at where Taomi and Liu Lantong were. Apparently they've been spotted.

Liu Lantong put her finger to her mouth, and Wang Liguo left with a silent smile.

The conversation between Ying Huada and Ma Yinghong was still going on. Ma Yinghong looked around and walked two steps into Ying Huada, "Today my parents arranged for me to have a blind date with Wang Liguo."

"Oh, that's great. I wish you happiness. If you need to name your child in the future, just come to me. Since we have met for a while, I will definitely help you name your child. A name that represents the beautiful development of our new China."

As Ying Huada didn't say a word, Ma Yinghong's delicate red face turned whiter, she raised her head and looked at Ying Huada in disbelief, and said after he finished speaking, "You think I'm looking for You, just for this matter?"

"Otherwise? Comrade Ma Yinghong, you can talk about any difficulties you have. If I can't help you, I will definitely go to Village Chief Shen and the others to help you."

Ma Yinghong didn't know whether the person in front of her really didn't know or pretended not to know, "I don't have any difficulties. I came here to tell you that I like you. I won't be with Wang Liguo because of you."

Ying Huada immediately took two steps back as if he had been greatly frightened, "Comrade Ma Yinghong, what are you talking about?"

"I said that I like you. I will not be with Wang Liguo because of you, but my parents will definitely let me go on a blind date with another man again. Can you come to my house to propose marriage? I know your family is not rich. We The family will not ask for too many bride price."

In this day and age, to be able to say these words is not bold. Tao Mi looked at Liu Lantong and saw that she was frowning with a look of disapproval. It seems that there is nothing wrong with trying to pursue her own feelings. What she disagrees with is the person Ma Yinghong likes.

The conditions here are obvious, Wang Liguo's parents are still alive, and Ying Huada has an elderly grandma, the Wang family has lived in Lingxi Village for several generations, and Ying Huada has only been here for a few years, and there is another one who can only read poetry Compared with the soldiers who went to the battlefield, Wang Liguo must be in better condition. After they get married, they will be married in the military, and they will be protected by the state.

Liu Lantong was thinking here, and Ying Huada's education of Ma Yinghong had also begun, "I always thought you were a good girl, but I didn't expect you to be like those women, to say such shameless words, Do you know that the most beautiful woman in China is the reserved woman in ancient times, what is the difference between a person like you who can say such things, and an ancient prostitute?"

Ying Huada's words were not cruel, and Ma Yinghong burst into tears in an instant, "You, you, how could you say that about me, I am not the kind of person you said at all."

The sun was setting and the night was sinking. Ma Yinghong's back running away was a bit bleak, but Ying Huada didn't seem to say that he hadn't had a good time yet, but he couldn't catch up, so he just watched and left. Turning around, Liu Lantong's face appeared in front of his eyes, "What are you doing, girl?"

"I'll teach you a lesson." As Liu Lantong said, he hit Ying Huada on the stomach all of a sudden, and he was silenced all of a sudden. He bent down and covered his stomach, unable to say a word, Liu Lantong's But he didn’t stop talking, “What do you say is that the most beautiful women are reserved women in ancient times? You might as well say that those women are the accessories of your men. Three obediences and four virtues. How many good women have been delayed by the feudal society? There are people like you."

"I didn't..." From his voice, it could be heard that he was in pain, but he was still able to speak, which showed that the pain was not enough.

Liu Lantong pulled his collar and punched him on the shoulder, which made Ying Huada fall down again, "Dare you say you didn't? Then you used to go to the hospital with a book every day. What is the purpose of the field? You also specially go to our little girl, don’t you want to show your charm? Now Ma Yinghong is fascinated by your charm, but you are here to preach, can you stop being a bitch again Set up an archway again?"

"You are rude..." What are these words, it is really unbearable, unbearable.

"I'm rude, that's because I'm only rude to people I don't dislike." He kicked another corner of the leg that was about to stand up, and this time Ying Huada went straight forward and fell to the ground.

Originally, Liu Lantong wanted to watch him kneel down, but his waist was too soft, his back was not straight enough, and he didn't have the anger that a literati had, so he became what he is now, and it has nothing to do with her.

"Fang Fei, let's go."

"Oh good." Taomi looked like she had just recovered from the shock, and walked behind Liu Lantong, but pierced a silver needle about one centimeter into Ying Huada's body where no one else could see. .

Ying Huada felt a pain in his waist, thought it was just a flash, got up and glanced at the direction Taomi and Liu Lantong left, and walked in the direction he had just come.

"No wonder you are friends with this Liu Lantong. Her personality is really similar to yours, and her thinking logic is similar to yours. Isn't this called congeniality?"

"Hehe, this is called like attracts like and divides into groups." If they share similar tastes, then he has followed her for hundreds of thousands of years, so what are they?

Liu Lantong didn't see it when he called Ying Huada, it was the village again, and Ying Huada went straight home to apply medicinal wine without meeting anyone.

So no one knew that Liu Lantong beat Ying Huada, and he couldn't stand being beaten by a woman younger than him. Such a thing, like Ying Huada, who wanted face, would not talk about it.

The next day, Taomi had just finished her breakfast when Liu Lantong came to her angrily, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's not Ma Yinghong." Liu Lantong looked out the window. Shen Cheng's parents were chatting with others outside the yard. She knew that her embarrassing thing was known, so she told her that she saw Ying Huada fall down and all kinds of embarrassing scenes. Who knew that not only was she not happy, but she showed a look of concern. Seeing that she wanted to care about him secretly, it really pissed me off."

"Well, it's enough to be angry." It's okay for a woman to pursue love, but she also needs to have some dignity. She doesn't just rush forward regardless of her own feelings when she sees someone good, let alone Ying Huada is not that good. .

Tao Mi poured Liu Lantong a glass of water, "As a friend, you are enough for Ma Yinghong, don't be angry with yourself anymore."

"I now understand what it means to be sad and angry about my misfortune. People like Ying Huada are a cancer of feudal society. It is precisely because of women like Ma Yinghong and men like Ying Huada that more and more A lot.” In fact, when you think about it carefully, not only in this era, but also in the 21st century, the social status of women is still not as high as that of men. Although equality between men and women has been advocated all the time, how many people are truly equal?

Don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about cheating. Once a woman is found cheating, she will be abused by everyone in the society. As for a man cheating, although he will be accused of cheating, it is far from It is far less than a woman has to bear. After a while, life will continue, and no one will mention it at all.

She has been collecting folk songs in her previous life, and she went to places with simple folk customs, but even in places with simple folk customs, there will be one or two moths. She didn't care at all at that time, but now she has to care, because she came here It's not for collecting folk songs, but for those who really want to live here. Everyone here is her neighbor, and Ma Yinghong grew up with the original owner, and has a friendship with her.

Liu Lantong sighed silently. Although she wanted to help Ma Yinghong very much, if she wanted to die, then it had nothing to do with her. After all, it is better to teach someone how to fish than to give him a fish.

"Fang Fei, let me ask you a question. If you know that there will be no good results, do you need to persuade your friend not to jump into the fire pit?"

Tao Mi looked at Liu Lantong strangely, "How do you know that there will be no good results, can you predict the future?"

Liu Lantong was discouraged. Although she couldn't predict the future, her experience told her that Ma Yinghong and Ying Huada would not have good results. But thinking about it from a certain perspective, there will be so many male chauvinists in future generations. Those women were able to accept it, and it is the same now.

On the other hand, Ma Yinghong and Ying Huada can also be regarded as Zhou Yu's fight against Huang Gai. They are both top-notch, and although they are a little bit weird together, they are still a good match.

Just as Liu Lantong exhaled, she heard Taomi ask suspiciously from the side, "Lantong, what do you mean by 'exquisite' and 'wonderful'?"

"Huh?" Liu Lantong's pupils widened in an instant, did she say it?

His eyes fell on Tao Mi, and she looked at her with a puzzled face, as if she really didn't know, "Did I just say that?"

Tao Mi nodded, "You said it, otherwise how would I know the meaning of these two words?"
