Chapter 248 The Heroine’s Sister-in-Law in Exile 21 (2-in-1)
Liu Zong’s pupils shrank, and the hand under the pillow suddenly clenched the weapon. He said that he didn’t know what she was talking about, and his name was Liu Ying. , not Liu Zong, his body slightly arched, ready to explode at any time.
Lin Zhi looked at him: "Liu? That means you don't have a wife or a family?"
Liu Zong paused and thought of his wife who had worshiped in the capital, his eyes darkened. After a while, he still said: "Of course I already have a wife."
Although I don't know what her situation is like in the capital, and the two of them have not gotten along yet, but since they have come to court, she is the wife he is marrying.
Lin Zhi glanced at him: "It's quite honest. I was still thinking that if you don't recognize me, I will simply make peace with Li Shu and go back to remarry in peace." She looked at him with a smile in her eyes and the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Liu Zong's eyes were filled with doubts, but as he stared at her, who seemed to be in a good mood, something flashed through his mind.
I have an idea that is coming to my mind, but I can’t believe it.
"What did you say?" His tone was trembling.
Ling Zhi looked at his messy hair and face half-covered by beard: "You look like this, you are far from the handsome young man with the handsome face praised by people in the capital."
He raised his hand and grabbed the dirty bed that had not been cleaned for a long time, and then looked at the blood-stained cloth wrapped around his chest with a look of disgust on his face.
Liu Zong ignored her and stared at her: "Lin?"
The tone was full of disbelief.
Ling Zhi glanced at him and nodded lightly: "Yeah."
Liu Zong finally took a closer look at the woman in front of him. On their wedding night, he only lifted his hijab and saw a woman as big as a palm. Before she could take a closer look at her snow-white face, the imperial edict from the palace came down, and she had to leave the capital in a hurry and rush to the border... The woman in front of her had red lips slightly hooked, her eyebrows were picturesque, and she looked good.
Although she is wearing coarse linen clothes, you can still see her voluptuous waist, showing infinite charm in her dignity.
Vaguely, that inexplicable feeling of familiarity was confirmed.
"Doctor Guanglu, Master Lin's legitimate daughter, Lin Zhi?"
"It's me."
Liu Zong... was full of complexity and all kinds of doubts. He asked clearly, and finally turned it into one sentence: "Why are you here?" After asking, countless questions followed, and he asked eagerly, "Aren't you in the capital? My mother, my third brother, and my little sister, Where’s the sister-in-law?”
"How is your family now?"
Ling Zhi looked at him: "What do you think?"
Like a blow to the head, Liu Zong was shocked, pain gradually flashed in his eyes, and the eyes of a dignified seven-foot man She couldn't help but blush, and asked with difficulty, "Mom, are you here too, and my little sister."
Ling Zhi nodded: "They are all here. The Liu family was confiscated and exiled, and mother and little sister were both tortured on the way. After all the hard work, Liu Jing’s legs were also broken, and now he is in the village where he was sent to work, and he has to work hard every month.”
The weapon in Liu Zong’s hand fell to the ground with a clang, and he covered it with his hands. With a face on his face, he said in a muffled voice: "I should have thought of it a long time ago. There is a mole in the army. Dad and brother's battle plan was leaked. We struggled to support it, but in the end we were attacked by the people behind us. I wanted to save them. ”
"But there were too many enemies, and they eventually became farther and farther away. I watched helplessly as my elder brother fell and my father was killed."
"I was also besieged and lost consciousness."
There was a hint of sound in the voice. Expressing the suppressed pain: "Two months have passed since I woke up and secretly inquired about the news. There were new generals in the army, and my father and eldest brother became The sinner who tricked the soldiers to death... Your Majesty will definitely not spare the Liu family, but I thought you could at least save your lives and stay in the capital."
It is too far from the capital to the border, and it is difficult for the news to be transmitted in time. And since he woke up, he has been trying to find a way to find his father and eldest brother, hoping that they would survive like him.
But, I got the news that my father and eldest brother are really dead.
He wanted to ask, didn't his mother's family take her away? Could it be that her father, Mr. Lin, and the Yu family of the third brother's in-law family also watched helplessly as the third brother's legs were broken.
But fortunately, although the eldest brother is gone, the two children are protected by the sister-in-law and do not have to endure the hardship of exile.
He couldn't help but look at Lin Zhi. His sister-in-law had already remarried with her two children. She had no children and they had not consummated their marriage. Why not just go back to her parents' home? Or even go into exile all the way. I don't know how much it would cost. Strength, find him.
An inexplicable feeling rose from the bottom of my heart, a little sour and a little swollen.
Ling Zhi was silent after hearing his words.
"How did you find me? Also, since my mother and my younger sister and my third brother are all in the village, is it okay for you to come out?" As his wife, her status is naturally that of a prisoner, and she cannot be as upright as a person with an innocent life experience. Walk around as you please.
"Bibbed Li Zheng's son and came out under the guise of the salesman's sister."
This sentence contained a lot of information. Liu Zong was a little surprised. He looked at her. He had always thought that she was sticking to the rules. He didn't expect that the lady from the official family was completely different from what he imagined and could do such a thing.
He opened his mouth to continue asking.
Ling Zhi interrupted: "Are you sure you don't want to freshen up before talking to me?" She glanced at his miserable condition and said, "It's an eyesore."
Only then did Liu Zong remember that he had talked to her for so long while looking dirty, and his face turned red. Although he had been hanging out with those old and rough military gangsters all year round, he still loved to be clean. He didn't feel it when he was in a coma. It's really suffocating to smell it now.
It was just that the injury was too severe and it was difficult to move, so it turned out to be so ugly: "I'm sorry, but my injury is a bit serious, I'm afraid."
Ling Zhi turned to the outside of the house and pushed through the crack in the door. The boy who was watching said that if he asked him to help find two people, he would be given five copper coins. If the people he called helped, he would also be given coins. The little boy happily agreed and left.
The atmosphere in the room was tense just now. Xiaojia was scared and ran out along the wall.
Seeing her arrangement, Liu Zong silently agreed.
After a while, the little boy came over with two and a half boys. After hearing that he was really given a copper plate for the work, he happily started to boil water, poured it into the bathtub, and cleaned Liu Zong. The technique was rough and caused Liu Zong pain. He frowned and refrained from speaking.
After washing, I put on the clean and comfortable clothes she brought, and I immediately felt comfortable.
Seeing the scraper lying there, I thought about shaving the beard on my face one by one. After everything was done, I walked back to the room with the support of the two children.
The wooden house was also cleaned by several girls who came from behind, the beds were changed, the closed windows were also opened, and the dry mountain breeze blew in from the window.
The woman was sitting at the table, playing with some wild chrysanthemums in a broken jar.
There are also cloth strips and medicine bottles on the table, which are the medicines made by the Liu family.
"Sit down and let me take care of your injury." She said casually.
Liu Zong nodded and walked over and sat down beside him. The woman stood up and walked to him, neatly untied his belt, revealing several hideous wounds. One of them was cut from the chest to the abdomen, and the bones were clearly visible. .
"So serious?" "Not bad." It was precisely because he was seriously injured that after he disappeared, the traitor thought that he died somewhere unknown and did not send anyone to find him, otherwise he would not be able to live in peace. Long.
The woman's beautiful eyebrows frowned: "For this kind of injury, you just used the ordinary herbs just now? No wonder there is no sign of healing for so long." She took a look just now and found that those herbs were just a few kinds of farmers' herbs that are very common on the roadside. There are no healing herbs or better medicines that we all know.
It can be said that he did not die from infection, and it was all supported by his own strong healing ability.
But if you think about it, the person who saved him was just an ordinary peasant girl, and you can understand.
No more words, first re-sterilize with wine, then apply medicine to the injured area, and then wrap it with cloth. She is not a doctor and can only simply wrap it.
The two were very close. She leaned in front of him to clean the wound. Her beautiful facial features dangled in front of his eyes. Her cold fingertips touched his skin from time to time. His face changed visibly. Hong, he was sitting upright, not daring to glance around.
Only occasionally, I have to raise my hand or arm under her command.
While applying the bandage, Liu Zong almost hugged him from behind.
"Okay, let's do this for now. I'll see if I can find a doctor for you tomorrow." Lin Zhi His expression was as usual, and he didn't notice his changes at all.
Liu Zonggang was about to nod, then reacted: "No, I'm hiding here, if someone finds me."
"I'll find someone with a strict mouth."
Liu Zong didn't say anything. In fact, he also wanted to recover from the injury as soon as possible, but the injury continued to be bad and there was nothing he could do.
He didn't bring any money with him when he went to the battlefield, and the jade pendant that represented the descendants of the Liu family was not easy to sell. If he was discovered and traced here, there would be only death.
The girl who rescued him didn't have much money, so he couldn't bother her.
The two of them were silent for a while. Suddenly, Liu Zong noticed that her eyes fell on his face, as if he was observing her repeatedly. He suddenly raised his mind and rubbed the fabric on his legs nervously with his hands.
He is known as the Jade-faced Man. He is naturally outstanding in appearance and very handsome.
Because of the injury, he is now very thin. He looks like a frail scholar with a worried look in his eyes, but there is a scar on the side of his face, which shows that he is not actually weak, but a brave and skilled soldier who has experienced countless battles.
Comment: "You can still watch it."
Liu Zong breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. He was obviously not nervous on the night of the wedding, but now he was too nervous waiting for her to comment.
"By the way, when you come out, do your mother and third brother and younger sister know?"
Ling Zhi shook his head: "I don't know." Looking at him, "I followed the salesman to see you before. There are few injured men, but they are not you. I didn’t have much hope when I found this place today, but I didn’t expect to be lucky.”
Liu Zong was heartbroken. Although it was just a few words and he didn't mention the hard work she had to do to find him, he could still imagine how she, a woman raised in a boudoir, had to ask a salesman to help find someone, and risk her life. What kind of danger is it to follow a stranger and travel across mountains and rivers to find the husband who doesn't know whether he is dead or alive?
There are only a few women in this world who can do this.
"Thank you, please accept..."
"Ranagi Lang!"
With a bang, the wooden door was opened by a woman, and a pair of panicked eyes looked inside the room. , seeing his eyes light up, he rushed over: "Are you okay? Are you injured? I was cutting pigweed on the mountain just now, and I heard someone say that someone is coming to find you. I'm afraid it's a bad person, so hurry down the mountain, you..."< br>
Wanting to hold his face with both hands, Liu Zong turned away and said, "Miss Taohua, I'm fine."
The distant and indifferent tone made Taohua stop her movements. At this time, when she looked around, she realized that he was not only shaving He lost his beard and put on clean clothes, making him look handsome and handsome.
Amazement and obsession flashed in his eyes, but he immediately reprimanded: "Why did you shave your beard? What will you do if someone recognizes you like this? You have to know that in the whole village, I am the only one who is friendly to you. If anyone else finds out, they will definitely hand you over to the officers and soldiers!"
Seeing her anxiety, Liu Zong softened his expression and said, "Don't worry, I know the severity and won't be discovered."
< br>“That’s right.”
"This is my wife. She has been looking for me since my accident, and she happened to find me here today."
He turned to Lin Zhi and said, "This peach blossom girl is the one who saved me after I was injured." If it hadn't been for her, I would have died in the wild."
Ling Zhi looked at this girl, who had a delicate appearance, a wheat complexion, and a medium build. He looked at her with very wary eyes and said hello with a smile: "Peach Blossom. Hello girl, Thank you for taking care of my husband these days."
Taohua was shocked when she heard about Madam, and now she was even more shocked: "Madam?"
Liu Zong nodded: " Yes, please help me, Miss Ti, but I don’t need to trouble you anymore. Thank you for taking care of me during this period." As he said this, he felt relieved. He had been troublesome with Taohua before. She was still an unmarried woman and felt somewhat uncomfortable. Now she is finally better. .
Taohua looked sad, tears streaming from her eyes: "You don't want me anymore, and you want me to leave as soon as my wife comes?"
"I saved you, and you just drive me away like this?"
Liu Zong was shocked: "Miss Peach Blossom, why did I ask you to tell me, and I have already said that I have a wife..." Peach Blossom had already collapsed, turned around and ran away.
The door kept shaking.
Liu Zong turned to Lin Zhi and explained: "Believe me, Peach Blossom Girl saved me. I am very grateful to her, but I definitely did not do anything deviant."
Thinking of Tao Hua's performance just now, she felt a headache, "Ling Zhi, how much money do you still have on you? Tao Hua is the granddaughter of a barefoot doctor. It's very hard to collect medicine and take care of me. Life-saving grace must be repaid." It was very difficult to say, after all, to He had never done this before when a woman asked for money.
But they are husband and wife, so in order to avoid trouble, they have no choice but to speak.
Lin Zhi looked at him with some surprise. As a woman, her peach-shaped eyes and movements showed that she coveted Liu Zong, and she blurted out such words just now.
"Are you sure? I see that Peach Blossom Girl is interested in you, why don't you take her back?"
Liu Zong looked at her and was dumbfounded: "What are you talking about? She is innocent. Girl, I'm already married, how can I take her back? "What's more, it's just to save someone, why does he want to hook up with me? What's more, the Liu family has never had the habit of taking concubines.
"Don't talk nonsense. If it spreads, it will damage the peach blossom girl's reputation."
Ling Zhi looked at him for a long time.
Liu Zong hesitated to speak at this time and looked at her: "Could it be that you really want to make peace with me?" After thinking about it, "That's okay. You can return to Beijing after we make peace. You don't have to." I'm going to suffer here."
The Liu family is in a difficult situation now. She is a delicate little lady, and he has never thought about tying her up and suffering for him.
