It was cold, and the water in the bath bucket quickly cooled, so Gu Zheng went to the stove to pick up another bucket and let Mo Xiaohe soak in the hot water to dispel the cold in his body. With her husband here, Mo Xiaohe just cooperated mechanically, her mind was clear, if the news was true, the couple would have to plan for the future to prevent the two countries from suddenly going to war and killing them by surprise.

"Don't think about it so much yet, let's talk about it after the New Year."

Gu Zheng found two dry cloth towels, took his wife out of the bathtub, quickly wrapped them in cloth towels, dried herself, and sent them to the bed.

"Lady, you cover the quilt, I'll wring your hair dry, don't sleep yet, be careful about the cold."

Mo Daya was hot noodle soup in the stove, I heard that the lady was hungry, Gu Zheng was a little anxious, if it wasn't from Licheng yesterday, he would be fine at home, no need for the lady to freeze on the mountain overnight, he touched Mo Xiaohe's forehead with his hand, and drank ginger soup to sweat, still a little hot.

"Well, husband, I'm fine, I took the pill given by Yingluo, it will be much better."

The couple chatted a few words, and when their cousin made noodles, Mo Xiaohe ate a big bowl to warm his stomach, and then fell asleep.

It rained all day, and the hills were silent, and the village was no longer noisy, except for the sound of rain beating on the eaves and window lattices.

Gu Zheng went next door to see his uncle Li Dazhuang's leg, the treatment was timely, and the rest of the body was not seriously injured, because the room at home was limited, he temporarily stayed next door to recuperate, and when the yamen issued a notice, he planned to rent a carriage and send people back to the town.

Around Mo Zi, the sound of the rain gradually became smaller, Mo Xiaohe turned over, his arms were pulled forward, the bed was empty, the inner room was so dark that he couldn't see his five fingers, and there was a rustling sound in a trance, which made her heart tighten, and she whispered, "Husband, is it husband?" ”

In the darkness, a low and hoarse voice came, "Lady, it's me." ”

Then, a candle was lit in the house, Gu Zheng put the candlestick on the table, poured a cup of hot water, "Why did you wake up?" ”

The oil lamps at home, all the lamp oil was sent to the mountain for lighting and saving people, only two or three candles remained, last night the wind was strong, the candles were lit and immediately extinguished, there was no use, so it stayed.

On rainy days, everyone in the village is making up for sleep, no one goes into the city to buy, and almost every household cooks in the dark, and can only rely on a little spark in the charcoal basin to illuminate.

"Sleep all day, sleep too much."

Mo Xiaohe groped for the pill at the head of the bed, took another pill with hot water, and leaned on Gu Zheng's arms, "Is my cousin asleep?" ”

"She didn't sleep all night, I asked her to go back to the room to rest, Li Er's matter, leave it to me to deal with, solve it as soon as possible, and it is also her concern."

Gu Zheng always felt that Mo Daya was an eyesore, and it was very awkward to have an extra outsider between husband and wife, but before he had to go to work, it was okay for someone to accompany his wife at home, and in the future, he had to find a way to marry someone off.

My own lady is soft-hearted, and Mo Daya is always lonely, what if she wants to live with them? Their husband and wife can't help, so it's better to find a good family for Mo Daya.

"Husband, what do you mean?"

Mo Xiaohe raised his head and carefully observed the expression on his husband's face, under the reflection of the candle flame, it flickered and dimmed, and the side face with scars was hidden in the shadows, and his emotions could not be seen, only his eyes could be seen, bright and deep.

Gu Zheng doesn't like to meddle with things the most, and suddenly found this topic, Mo Xiaohe was very uncomfortable, but she also understood that this is not a modern society, women can live a wonderful life without marrying, as the so-called widow has many rights and wrongs in front of the door, and the widow in the village has always been the object of gossip.

There is a good-hearted man in the village, who passes by to help the widow carry firewood, and he will also be tongue-stricken, and rumors will spread, in case he is young and widowed and has no children, there is no hope in the future.

"Yesterday I went to the city to meet people from Licheng, and I happened to meet an old friend."

Gu Zheng thought about it, his old friend was met on the way to darts a few years ago, he was bold and righteous, and he often went to Dayue to darts, and that person had been picking up life and death darts, and he could be regarded as saving a lot of family assets.

The flame on the candle became weaker and weaker, Mo Xiaohe got up, picked the heart of the candle with the wire, and lit the incense that Xu Yanhui left to calm the nerves, she stretched out her delicate little hand and gently stroked the outline of Gu Zheng's face, "Life and death dart?" ”

"Yes."

Ordinary dart masters are running around all year round, that is, to earn a silver for running errands, barely able to make a living, if you want to make money, you have to hang your head on the belt of your pants, work hard, and pick up the dart master of life and death, usually very capable.

The goods to the people, the goods are lost, the head of the gambling on their own items, the delivery is priceless treasures, the owner is afraid that the dart master can not do his best, if he bets on his own life, in order to live, he must also ensure that the goods are intact.

"Husband, I didn't understand before, how did you save your belongings by walking darts, it turns out that you are walking life and death darts!"

Mo Xiaohe held Gu Zheng's hand nervously, she had heard of the ferocity of the mountain bandits, and the government was helpless against those outlaws, and on the way to the north, they had also met.

The village under the mountain was slaughtered, those people's machetes were full of blood, and there were round eyes on people's heads.

Even if Gu Zheng has martial arts, which of those people is weak? It's all about licking blood from the knife, and the dense wounds on his back are the best proof of this.

"Lady, I promise that I will not take the dart of life and death in the future."

Gu Zheng wanted to mention the family affairs of Mo Daya, but he wrapped himself in, and faced the interrogation of his own mother, he had a headache, he was once alone, and no one cared about life or death, who cares? And now it's different, he won't be desperate, he is reluctant to leave her alone.

"Then I continued, I don't know what my old friend's name is, nicknamed Xu Tietou, when he was walking a dart, his head was slashed by a mountain bandit, and as a result, the mountain bandit's knife cut a gap, but his head was fine......"

was about to say something light, but Gu Zheng found that the more he said, the more Mo Xiaohe frowned, he seemed to have said something that shouldn't have been said?

"Husband, you want to match Xu Tietou and my cousin, can this be reliable?"

Mo Xiaohe ripped off Gu Zheng's clothes, leaned his cheek on his fiery chest, rubbed it, and listened to his messy heartbeat, "Could that person be rude?" And age, who else is in the family, do you know that my cousin has been married, and she has had a miscarriage......"

"Xu Tietou is two years older than me, and he married the daughter of a hunter in the village in his early years."

Gu Zheng was a little itchy, he lowered his head, held Mo Xiaohe's little hand to prevent her from touching it, and continued, "He is also a poor man, his father and mother left early, and there are two sisters in the family, because his father and mother are partial to him, the two sisters are not only not close to him, but they are almost like enemies." ”

Speaking of which, the two elder sisters are not smart, and if they encounter trouble in their parents' house, they will still rely on their younger brother to help them in the future and treat them as enemies, which will not benefit them at all.

"And then, is his wife dead?"

His husband will definitely not let his cousin be a concubine, there is no father and mother at home, Xu Tietou and his two sisters don't move around, and there is little trouble, if it is a worry-free family, Mo Xiaohe thought, maybe you can consider it.

"No, after his father and mother died, he left a few acres of land, and he felt sorry for his two sisters, so he secretly made his own decisions and divided the land equally between the two."

Gu Zheng shook his head, so Xu Tietou's wife made a big fuss with him and went back to his parents' house several times. There is no land at home, and you have to live, if you are a man, you can't let your woman starve, Xu Tietou is hard and began to work in the town, and later was favored by the martial arts master of the martial arts hall, he went to learn a few tricks, slowly came into contact with the dart game, and walked the life and death dart.

I can only go home twice a year, each time I live for ten days and half a month, and the money is given to the lady, Xu Tietou just wants to try his best to make up for it, seeing his wife wearing a muslin dress, silk, and rubbing rouge gouache, no matter how hard he is outside, it is worth it. The money that his wife squandered was all exchanged for his life.

"Then one time he came home, and the villagers saw him and gave a hint that he was cuckolded."

Xu Tietou was stubborn, he didn't believe that his mother would do that kind of thing regardless of his reputation, he stayed at home for a few days, pretended to leave, and that night, he secretly sent back, just caught the rape in bed. Gu Zheng could imagine a man's anger, and in the end, Xu Tietou didn't say a word, ignoring her mother's crying, he only wrote a letter of reconciliation, threw all the money to the woman, and packed up a small burden and left.

Xu Tietou never goes home, there must be responsibility, but her wife must take the lion's share, a man can't accept being cuckolded, his wife has committed seven crimes, and he can divorce his wife, but he chose to divorce, and left a lot of money, benevolence and righteousness, he is a man.

"Later, when I met him a few times, he was always alone, and occasionally went to the market to do some small business."

Xu Tietou walked the dart of life and death, fell into the root of the disease, it rained on a cloudy day, sometimes his legs hurt, the money he had accumulated by himself, if he lived a dull life, the second half of his life would be enough, and now he wants to find a person who knows cold and hot, and his wife and children are hot on the kang.

"I told him what happened to Mo Daya, and I also said that if she doesn't care well, she is likely to have no children in the future."

Gu Zheng felt that Xu Tietou was a man, and when the rest of the men heard this, they would definitely change their complexion, but he didn't, he walked through the life and death dart, and after so many years, the most important thing in life is to be comfortable, comfortable, whether there are children or not, it all depends on the will of God.

"Okay."

Mo Xiaohe agreed, she was not too anxious before, someone from Licheng sent news, in case the two countries went to war, she must first properly settle her relatives, Xu Tietou will be capable, righteous, and wealthy, which is a good reliance.

"I told him to invite him to come to the house for a drink."

Gu Zheng was relieved when he saw that his wife agreed, and didn't tell Mo Daya first, so as not to be too careful, it was better to just do it first, contact and contact, in case the two of them could produce sparks.

"Discuss with me what else you said, it turned out to be cut first and then played!"

As soon as Mo Xiaohe finished speaking, before the second half of the sentence could be spoken, Gu Zheng blocked his lips, "Since you can't sleep, let's do something to pass the time......"

The candles flickered, the bed curtain was removed, and the couple embraced each other all night......

The next day, after the rain, the sky is clear, the sky is like washing, in winter, it is rare to have such a good weather, the sun shines on people warmly, and there is no feeling of summer heat, Mo Xiaohe dismantled and washed the sheets at home, and dried them all in the yard.

"Xiaohe, I heard that there is a disturbance on the mountain, and the village chief's house is also noisy."

Mo Daya went to buy lamp oil with her aunt next door Sun Tzu in the morning, and by the way, she bought some mountain goods, mushroom fungus, for stewed meat to eat, she put the basket in the stove, "The people who came to serve the servant said that the yamen didn't treat people as people, and the two sides fought!" ”

After the rain stopped, the yamen sent a lot of people to move stones, found the last few corpses, no one survived, the yamen insisted, being hit by a stone, it is a death, Li Dazhuang has done good things in his previous life, and he has taken shit luck, tossing and not tossing, it is an effect.

Such disregard for human life finally aroused the anger of everyone, the two sides tore up, and someone went to the mountain to inform that the person who took the lead in making trouble was going to be arrested, and the quarrying could not be stopped, and the manpower had to be increased recently.

"That's right."

Mo Xiaohe's eyes fluttered, Da Wu was in a hurry to strengthen the city wall, the purpose was to prevent Da Yue from suddenly sending troops, maybe it was really not far from the war, she lowered her head, hid her stunned expression, and deliberately changed the topic, "What is the matter with the village chief?" ”

"It's not just money, you gave the village chief a hundred taels, the people in the village don't know how to hear about it, they went to the mountains to work hard, the village chief waited next to him with a broken pot, didn't make a difference, he took the lion's share, of course the people in the village were not happy!"

Wealth is moving, and when it comes to interests, who is willing to give in? There are so many families in the whole village, one or two families are provoking, and the rest of the people have to follow suit, and they are looking for the village chief to explain the law.

"No matter what he is, he wants to have a good reputation even if he is greedy for money, how can he make any good thing!"

Mo Xiaohe raised his eyebrows, beat the quilt with a stick, under the baking of the sun, it was warm, it didn't rain, there was a lot less cold air, it seemed that he could sleep well at night, he thought of Xu Tietou that his husband said, that person couldn't say when he would come to the door, look at his cousin's gray and sudden dress, what if he dies in the light?

Mo Xiaohe married Gu Zheng, mainly because her aesthetics are different from those of Da Wu, in her eyes, her husband is a man, a real iron-blooded man, handsome enough to make people nosebleeds, and in that regard, he is really strong!

"Xiaohe, why are you blushing? Is the fever still not gone? I'll do the work. ”

Mo Daya stared at her cousin suspiciously, and was about to step forward to probe her forehead, Mo Xiaohe hurriedly took a step back, as long as she thought of her husband, she always thought of some pictures that she didn't want to do and was not suitable for children, she was so ......

Calming down her emotions, Mo Xiaohe touched her cheek with her hand, it was a little hot, she rubbed the corner of her forehead, "Cousin, your dress is before you got married, and you look a little old." ”

"In the village, who pays attention to me, what are you doing when you wear so fresh, and do you fall into the hands of people? Everyone in the village knew that I had been dismissed. ”

Mo Daya shook her head indifferently, she is not an unmarried little lady, she pays attention to dressing up when she goes out, she still has to work at home, wear darker colors, so as not to be too obvious after getting dirty, and this dress is muslin, it is very comfortable to wear, she came to Sweetwater Village in a hurry, only two sets of change of clothes.

"It's not right to think so, cousin, whoever said that if you are divorced, you will be disgraced, you will dress up every day, and when the old pious woman comes back, she must be so angry that she vomits blood when she sees you glamorous, you know, her son who has suffered from the plague is the one who is about to go to prison!"

Mo Xiaohe rolled her eyes, and used her three-inch tongue to fool Mo Daya, although her cousin is not a beauty, but there are no ugly women, only lazy women, as long as she does a little modification, she will definitely stand out among the aunts, sisters-in-law and little ladies in the village.

She moved a chair and let Mo Daya sit under the tree, and went to the town a few days ago, and specially bought pigments that can dye her hair, and her cousin looked old because she was too sad, and most of her hair was white, dyed black, and it was different immediately.

There is a fabric bought a few days ago at home, sky blue, this color can make people whiter, she tossed to the stove again, and adjusted a secret recipe for the Mo family's beauty, although the medicine tastes pungent, but after using it, the face is tender and smooth, just like a peeled egg.

"Xiaohe, what is this, it seems that his face is covered with a layer of mud!"

Mo Daya only showed a pair of eyes, and the taste was weird, as if her face was smeared with a layer of cow dung, she saw that her cousin was the same, if she wasn't afraid of laughing, the things on it fell into her mouth, she must have laughed out loud, the image was too funny!

"This is our ancestral magic medicine, and I will be ten years old immediately when I put it on my face, cousin, I spent a lot of money in order to get enough medicinal materials!"

Mo Xiaohe really didn't lie, there were two flavors of medicinal herbs before, and the shop couldn't buy them, or she inadvertently mentioned it to Yingluo, the other party's gift, otherwise she wouldn't be able to make it up in a short time by herself.

The Mo family's recipe is reliable, Mo Xiaohe absolutely trusts, before she drank the decoction, her breasts were almost flat, and in a short period of time, it became bumpy and convex, she had observed the queen mother at close range, that figure was really unattainable, no wonder it could tie a man's heart.

The two sisters chatted, the door opened a crack, Gu Zheng just came back, and happened to meet Xu Tietou who came to visit, the two pushed the door and entered, and were so shocked by the scene in front of them that they couldn't speak.

"That's embarrassing!"

Mo Xiaohe's face is black, she is also a crow's mouth, saying Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, this is covered with a mud-like mask, strange, how to see people?
