Chapter 217: Difficult birth
There are as many as 100 kinds of strange medicines in Yingluo's hands alone, and she has not been able to subdue her fiancé, Mo Xiaohe is full of curiosity about that great god, as for these medicines, you can take some away and keep them in your hands for later use, but they definitely can't be used on Gu Zheng.
It is said that in the border city is only a small area, the larger the city, the more hidden the entrance to the black market, and ordinary people do not know that there is such a place for a lifetime.
The black market stipulates that you must leave before the sun sets, if you want to stay overnight, you have to go through very complicated procedures, and it costs a lot of silver, although Yingluo graciously retained, considering her husband, Mo Xiaohe still declined.
Before leaving, because of Yingluo's face, Mo Xiaohe brought out a large piece of sauce-flavored beef, she was very frightened at that time, but Yingluo waved her hand indifferently, "My territory, I am in charge, and the rules are used to break!" ”
The group was sent to the exit, not Dingxianglou, but in a deserted wilderness, the sky was already dark, standing on the hillside, only to see traces of cooking smoke in the distance, there should be a village there.
"I don't know where this is, every time the exit of the black market is different."
Wang Ze has already taken off his mask, his appearance is in line with the aesthetics of the Great Wu people, he is long and jade, exuding the bookish atmosphere of a scholar all over his body, elegant and graceful, wearing a silver robe, and a noble son's style, standing in the wild, very abrupt.
"Xiaohe, I have to thank you this time, otherwise I am alone, and I don't know when I will be able to buy the medicine."
Wang Ze thanked him for his kindness, and sent Mo Xiaohe and Gu Zheng to kneel, the hand holding the medicine bag was trembling all the time, and his excitement was beyond words.
"You're welcome, meeting is fate, maybe I need to ask you for help in the future."
Mo Xiaohe waved his hand, thinking in his heart, he always thought that men in this era would accept the idea of three wives and four concubines, it seems that there is still a good way, dare to fight, just like Wang Ze, he was almost so excited that he cried bitterly, with a son-in-law, his mother did not have to force him to take a concubine.
"I believe there will be a chance to meet, if you go to Dawu Kyoto, you will definitely go to Shilang Mansion to find me."
After Wang Ze finished speaking, he hugged his fists to the two of them, and said a lot of scenes, he should have been a guest in the east, but he was anxious in his heart, and wanted to go back to the inn as soon as possible to pack his bags, and go out of the city at dawn tomorrow and go straight to Dawu Kyoto.
After Wang Ze left, Mo Xiaohe sighed again, and Gu Zheng always hooked the corners of his mouth, he saw something, and he didn't break it, it was still the same sentence, as long as his wife was happy, no matter whether it was wrong or right, he supported it.
After a long time, she once again proved her innocence, because she had the same temper as Yingluo, the medicinal materials were given to her for free, and she didn't ask for silver, so she saved thousands of taels for that person at once, and Mo Xiaohe didn't expect Wang Ze to leave in a hurry not to mention the money, he didn't spend a copper plate to ask for the magic medicine for the child, but if he came out to mix, he always had to pay it back, and the days of Wang Ze's crying were still to come.
The sun sets, the twilight is heavy, walking on a mountain village road, blowing a cold wind, the village in the distance, in a piece of loess, there is a bit of thick and desolate charm, at this moment, Mo Xiaohe seems to have arrived in the northwest of Dayue, where there is a high slope of loess.
"The village in front is Taoli Village, in the northwest corner of the border city, and it seems that we have come out far away."
Gu Zheng took Mo Xiaohe's hand, wiped the thin sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief, and said with concern, "Lady, are you hungry?" ”
The road after dark is really not easy to walk, and Taoli Village is still a very evil place, there is a lonely grave behind the village, it is said that it is haunted at night, and the yin atmosphere is very heavy.
"Husband, how do you still know this?"
Mo Xiaohe trembled, leaning on Gu Zheng tightly, the wind was very strong, and she would cry wolf when she heard it, if she was left alone, she would definitely cry, and she would have her husband by her side, walking with him, and she felt very safe.
"Niu Dazhuang, who used to live in a shack with me, lives in Taoli Village."
It is said that Taoli Village is a cursed place, and unlike the surrounding villages, this area only has loess, which is difficult to grow, and the villagers cannot make a living from farming.
"And what do they live on?"
Niu Dazhuang, Mo Xiaohe has a little impression of him, he is tall and big, looks a little dark, has small eyes, thick lips, looks very honest, smiles, shows a mouthful of small white teeth, speaks in a strange tone, the person is quite good, Mo Xiaohe went to the city gate to deliver food, and several times Niu Dazhuang helped to find Gu Zheng.
"There are several brick kilns here by burning bricks."
The stickiness of the loess is good, it can burn bricks, and the people in the village have ancestral brick-burning skills, and their lives are quite passable. Every household in Taoli Village is a brick house, and they use bricks that they burn themselves.
After Gu Zheng finished explaining, he squatted down, patted his back, and said undoubtedly, "Lady, come up, I'll carry you over." ”
"Husband, no, I'm so squeamish!"
After walking for a day, Mo Xiaohe's legs and feet were sore, but she insisted on not letting her husband carry her, she could walk with legs, it was almost dark, and she couldn't see the people in the village, so she had to pay attention to the impact.
"When did you stop being squeamish?"
Gu Zheng stubbornly insisted, Mo Xiaohe couldn't resist him, and finally honestly lay on his back, and found that her husband was walking like flying, walking with the wind, without a sense of fatigue, she secretly slandered in her heart, is it that her husband dislikes her for walking slowly, according to her speed, she really has to go to the dark.
"Husband, if you have time in a few days, you have to go to the black market once, I promised Yingluo."
Even for the sake of sauce-flavored beef, Mo Xiaohe has to go again, Yingluo also likes to eat beef, she bought a few yaks from Da Yue, yak meat is several times better than ordinary cattle, for a foodie, this temptation is really difficult to refuse.
Gu Zheng's back was hard, Mo Xiaohe touched the smooth lines of his muscles, and his heart was happy, sure enough, there were no annoying people around, whether it was Xu Yanhui or Lao Qianpo, he lived with his husband, and the days in the mountains were the most comfortable.
"Yes."
Gu Zheng nodded in agreement, Yingluo's status in the black market is not low, that black token is very weighty, if you don't want to be in Sweetwater Village, it seems that going to the black market is also a good choice.
In fact, he was a little worried in his heart, although he believed in his own lady, but he inevitably had an inferiority complex because of his appearance, and he was afraid that under the same roof, after a long time, the lady would fall in love with Xu Yanhui.
Arrived at Taoli Village, it was already dark, there were more than 30 families in the village, and they lived relatively scattered, Gu Zheng remembered that Niu Dazhuang said that the iron fence used in his yard was the only one in the village.
"Let's go to Niu Dazhuang's house for the night."
According to what Niu Dazhuang said, Gu Zheng quickly found a place, and it happened that the lights were on at home, so he knocked on the door gently.
After a while, a tall man staggered out, his hair was already messy, his beard was unkempt, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and his eyes were a little cloudy, he saw Gu Zheng at the door, and cried, "Brother Gu, is the official coming to arrest me?" Woo, I'm not running away from servitude......"
"Da Zhuang, why are you at home?"
Gu Zheng was also stunned, after he saved the servant, he turned on the green light all the way, so he took advantage of the rest to borrow the village chief's ox cart and take the lady into the city to go shopping, and Taoli Village is some distance from Tianshui Village, it stands to reason that Niu Dazhuang has no time to go home.
"Woo ......"
Niu Dazhuang opened the door and cried, he got the news yesterday, the people in the village went to deliver a letter to him, his mother had fetal gas, and he was afraid that he was going to give birth prematurely. In fact, it was almost time, and he thought that it might not be a big problem, and he kept thinking about it when he went to work, so he found an excuse and secretly ran back.
If the lady gives birth to a child, Niu Dazhuang is ready to go back to receive the punishment, at most it is a whip, he is a gentleman, the skin is rough and the meat is nothing, maybe the lady can feel at ease when she sees him by her side?
Who knew that after coming back, his mother had a difficult birth, tossed for a night, his father and mother invited three midwives, the front and back villages were all searched, the three of them were powerless, saying that the fetal position was not correct, and it was a massage, and it was boiling brown sugar water, and the child had not yet been born, and the midwife asked him to be psychologically prepared.
"Woo, one corpse and two lives, the mother and the child are going to be gone!"
Niu Dazhuang was overly sad, his eyes were red, and he pulled Gu Zheng's sleeve, "Brother Gu, please, don't take me back, I have to accompany my lady to the last part of the road......"
"Lightly, husband, his arm wound hasn't healed yet."
Mo Xiaohe looked nervous, hurriedly stepped forward to separate the two, sighed, everything is fate, maybe Niu Dazhuang's wife and children should not die, met her, just an hour ago, Yingluo just stuffed her with a burden, there are all kinds of bottles and cans, if she remembers correctly, there is a decoction to induce labor, after taking it, the results are immediate.
