Chapter 188: Be My Sister
In order to take care of Mingyue conveniently, Gu Zhirong and the others lived in the back wing of Guangming Temple. Xuanhe seems to be still immersed in the accident and joy of "the dead can be saved", he has to come over to see Mingyue several times a day, every time he sees Mingyue getting better little by little, he can eat, he can speak clearly, and even after ten days, he can walk around on the ground, he is amazed, but also Gu Zhirong has to fulfill his promise and copy part of the things on the "Medical Dictionary" to him. Of course, he was also very interested in those infusion things, so he had to force Gu Zhirong to say that after Mingyue's injury was healed, he would send all these medical devices to him for study.
Gu Zhirong felt very funny, but Xuan He deserved the title of "medical idiot", and this kind of perseverance really moved Gu Zhirong. So, in her spare time, she began to slowly translate the content of the "Medical Dictionaries" into words that they could understand, and in the past ten days, she actually copied about one-tenth of the content.
Because she was worried about the safety of the eldest prince, she spent a day crossing the desert five days ago, returning to Jiangzhou and returning to her uncle's house.
Although her uncle said in the letter that Master Lu was fine, the shock in her heart was indescribable when she saw that Master Lu's left hand, which had recovered from injury, could not even hold a small teacup.
It turned out that the arm of the eldest prince Lu was indeed injured, but it was far from as simple as it seemed on the surface. The knife cut off the meridians of his left hand, so even though the wound healed, because the meridians inside were broken, he couldn't pick up anything, so he couldn't use his strength.
Gu Zhirong couldn't say anything and asked him to seek medical treatment. You must know that this meridian is cut off. It is not a major surgery, as long as the broken meridians are continued and rehabilitated. The same can restore the function of the arm. Moreover, such an operation is not a difficult task for her.
However, the eldest prince of Lu did not agree. He has his own thoughts, seeing that the autumn is approaching, if he wants to continue the meridians, he will break his muscles and bones for a hundred days. Then he would have to recuperate for three whole months, in that case, wouldn't he miss the autumn season?
Gu Zhirong knew it well. moved by emotion, but still couldn't persuade him.
She still remembered that in the cold wind of Xiao Su, he said to her, "Ah Rong." I've been waiting for this autumn for too long. You have also waited too long and too long, do you have to miss it again? I don't want to do this, I don't want to watch you like this anymore in the Yuanning Hou Mansion to be careful and hopeful, and you will not be at peace every day. I want this autumn, I want to gain fame, I want to take you out of the Yuanning Marquis Mansion and live the life we want, do you understand?"
He told her so clearly. His heart, his expectations. Even if it's the price of a hand. What else can she say? Miss this time, wait another three years, and who knows what kind of variables will be in three years?
After coming back, Gu Zhirong cried a lot.
After that, he looked depressed, and no matter what interesting things he said, he never showed a smile again.
Ten days later, she went to the dock to see him back to Beijing. The cold wind lifted his colored robe, as in the past. She said to him: "A-Ting, you wait for me, your left hand is useless, then let me be your left hand and take care of you for the rest of your life." ”
Lu Fangting smiled, stretched out his hand to brush the broken hair on her forehead that was blown away by the river breeze, and said softly: "I know your intentions, I have always known them." ”
This year's Enke martial arts test, the child of the uncle's family, that is, Gu Zhirong's distant cousin Su Yu, also went to Beijing, so he walked with the eldest prince of Lu, of course, Gu Zhirong inevitably entrusted him to take care of the eldest prince of Lu, and Su Zi also agreed one by one.
drove the boat, and watched the boat carrying the eldest prince slowly sail out of sight and down the river. Gu Zhirong thought that from now on, she must be good to Master Lu, and she must be very good to Master Lu.
The wharf was windy, and Gu Zhirong stood for a long time, until he was cold. Lu Shui glanced at his young lady cautiously, and persuaded: "Miss, Master Lu, they have already gone away, let's go." Miss don't worry, didn't Uncle Wang say that he would send someone to protect him secretly, besides, there is a quasi-martial champion Su Gongzi by his side, what else does Miss have to worry about?"
Gu Zhirong thought to herself, yes, why did she forget that distant cousin Su Yu? I heard that this person studied under a famous family and was quite accomplished in swordsmanship, and I heard my uncle proudly mention that this distant cousin had almost no other party in Jiangzhou, so I thought of letting him go to Beijing to take the martial arts championship, get an official and a half position, and shine on the lintel. Thinking about it like this, I was worried about the safety of the eldest son on the road, but I was too worried.
She tightened the stone blue silk silver fox cloak on her body, turned around, and was about to leave, but saw another person standing on the edge of the river, a few steps away from her.
The man had a long and jade body, and in such a cold Jiangzhou, he didn't even have heavy brocade mink, but only wore a wide-sleeved robe with simple decorations. The river breeze blew, and the sleeved robe flew up, as if it was about to drift away.
He just faced her face to face, staring at her quietly, and his eyes under the mask were as deep as the turquoise river.
"Do you like him so much, like him so badly?" he asked sullenly, with a chilling winter snarness in his tone.
Gu Zhirong nodded affirmatively: "Yes." I owe him a life when he saved me with his life when I was young, but now he is burdened by himself and his left hand is gone, and I owe him another hand. ”
She sighed softly: "I owe him so much, I can't pay it off for the rest of my life." ”
When she said this, the young master had already turned his head and looked at the undulating river, and there was a heavy loneliness in his eyes. And his thoughts, like this river, could no longer calm down.
Perhaps, it's time to let go.
Because of that person, he can't participate in her past, or because of that person, she still can't participate in her present. Perhaps, even in the future, as long as there is that person, he will never have a chance to participate in her life.
It's not a bad thing to let go at this time. At least, give her what she wants. Moreover, she is such a goal-oriented person, what she wants, others can't give it, only to fulfill it.
"Can I hug you?" he said lightly, "From now on, you will be my sister, and I will take good care of you." ”
Lu Shui was stunned, how could this person make such a strange request?
Gu Zhirong smiled, she was not a rigid woman. No matter what, this young master has helped her too much, both in business and in the process of saving Mingyue. In her heart, he was more than an ordinary friend.
She walked over, hugged him gently, and whispered, "Brother." ”
For a moment, there seemed to be a heavy thought in the young master's eyes. He didn't say anything after all, hugged her gently, and then tightened the cloak on her body for her, and said softly, "Take care." ”
Gu Zhirong frowned, what he said...... Seems to mean goodbye, right?
She looked up at him, and her gaze fell on the half of the silver mask that covered his face: "Brother, is this going back to the capital?"
He nodded: "It's been too long to leave, it's time to go back." ”
Gu Zhirong's thoughts moved slightly, and suddenly an idea came to him: "That batch of goods must have been delivered to the Tong family's army, right?" I have always heard that General Tong is loyal and brave, and he governs the army strictly, since he has arrived at the border, and his brother is very familiar with General Tong, can you take me to see the iron-blooded heroism of the soldiers?"
The young master looked at her without blinking, and there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Gu Zhirong had lowered his head slightly: "Actually...... Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I saw that my brother did his best for the Tong family army, transporting medicinal materials thousands of miles away, so I thought, those border guards have been in the bitter cold land for many years, and there must be some hidden diseases, I'll go and see, by the way, see if I can help diagnose and treat it......" She raised her head and smiled quietly, "If it's inconvenient for my brother, then forget it." ”
The young master smiled with relief: "Who said that it is inconvenient for me, I will take you there tomorrow." (To be continued......)
