71. Chapter 71

In the dark underground underground dungeon, Lao Xue took advantage of no one to watch, grabbed the railing of the cage with both hands, and stepped on the wood closest to the water surface with two feet. Mama Jiang next to him also did the same.

It's actually very strenuous, it doesn't last long, and it can only be done when no one is around. But at least it can suspend the fate of the legs being wasted. There are not many people in the Li family's water prison and they are not very strict, just to prevent people from escaping. So as long as they can hold on, two people will still use this method.

Glancing at Mama Jiang, who was sweating densely on her forehead, Lao Xue cheered her up on the side, "If you hold on for a while, someone in the capital will definitely come to check." ”

The reason why Lao Xue has such confidence is because of his affirmation of the friendship between himself and Xue Jian. He knew that as long as he didn't send back the news for a few days, Xue Jian would definitely not be relieved of him. When the time comes, call people to Nanzhili, just check, you can know the general reason, and then try to rescue. Therefore, he is more relieved that he can be rescued than Mama Jiang. Since he was in the water prison, Lao Xue has been thinking about how to save his life. As long as you survive this period, there is always a chance to survive.

Although Xie Liangqing is the daughter of the Xie family's big house, with the Xie family's ability, I am afraid that she will not tear her face with the Li family to save people. If you want to stand on the court for a long time, it is not enough to rely on your own power. People live for a lifetime, not alone, and there are parents, wives and daughters. Regardless of the side, only the parents at home have passed away, and they need to go home to worry. If you come back after three years, if you don't stay in the emperor's heart all the time, you have to rely on the people you make friends to walk the way for you. Otherwise, it will continue to be consumed, or go back to his hometown directly to be a farmer.

Naturally, some people can also rely on their ability to lean towards the government and the opposition to force the emperor to win the favor and avoid the worries of the past three years. But the scholars in the world will bury people alive with spittle stars. After a hundred years, it is not himself who writes history books, and when the time comes, a pen is pinched in the hands of others, and he can't help himself how he wants to write. Not to mention that the emperor will be liquidated after the autumn at that time, it will really be a matter of pride, and he will lose everything.

The Xie family watched themselves fall day by day, how could they easily offend the few officials who were good friends with them. For the sake of the family, it is not a big deal to give up a daughter.

Mama Jiang held such a thought, and when she was imprisoned in the water prison, her heart was full of despair. She hadn't seen it, and she hadn't been through the water prison. But I have also heard and seen it in the market. She's just a subordinate, a servant. If both feet are wasted, then no one will want to sell them, and I am afraid that I will beg for a living in this life. Later, it was Lao Xue's idea, although she had less strength as a woman, but with the idea of being able to live, she survived in the end.

Originally, Mama Jiang's figure was still a little fat, but after a toss these days, the whole person has lost a lot of weight. She laughed at herself with Lao Xue: "It's good now, when I go back to the Xie family, I'm afraid someone will have to come with me to ask for a prescription." ”

Lao Xue's ears moved, and he heard the sound of someone coming outside. He quietly came down from the railing, and then went over to help Mama Jiang, whose hands and feet were frozen, down. Lao Xue leaned into Mama Jiang's ear and said: "This relationship is good, I can't guarantee it, when the time comes, you can make a fortune by selling it." ”

Mama Jiang glanced at Lao Xue and couldn't help but laugh. This person is really, at such a time, he can still have this ridiculous mind.

She bent down to touch a handful of dirty things from under the water and wiped some of her face. and wiped it on Lao Xue's face - this is to make the two of them look more miserable, so that no one can find out the ingenuity that the two of them are using in secret.

Old Man Li came in, and when he saw Lao Xue and Mama Jiang leaning weakly against the fence, he hurriedly asked someone to open the cell door quickly. "Hurry up and invite me out of the two distinguished guests!"

Lao Xue and Mama Jiang glanced at each other, and their eyes radiated brilliance.

The Li family will not let people go for no reason. They also saw Mrs. Li from the crowd. It can be seen that someone from Beijing is here.

The subordinate who was holding the key to guard the water prison was yelled at by Old Man Li, and even the key was almost unstable, so he finally shook his hand and opened the door, and sat on the slippery muddy ground on the edge of the cell.

Just now Old Man Li said, these two are nobles. He usually bullies people.

My life is at rest.

Two of the four subordinates helped Lao Xue and Mama Jiang out of the water prison.

Old Man Li smiled, rubbed his hands and asked, "Can the two distinguished guests still stand it?" I'll call the doctor to show you both right away. After saying that, he turned around and glared at Mrs. Li fiercely, "What are you doing in a daze?!" Why don't you go to the doctor! ”

Mrs. Li bit her lip and said in a while, "The one who was raised at home was taken away." Now that the whole house is fenced off outside, where can I go to find a doctor? ”

Lao Xue leaned all his strength on the two subordinates, and said weakly: "The doctor of the Rejuvenation Hall gave me some medicine, but I don't know where the old lady took it away." ”

The grandmother who was holding the old lady Li hurriedly said: "I have all stored it in the old lady's warehouse, all of them are here, and no one has touched them." ”

"Hurry up and get it." Old Man Li instructed, "Place the distinguished guests in the east wing, and hurry up to clean up the house." Then let people tell the official guarding the door, saying that someone in our house is sick and wants to ask a doctor to come to the door. They can't die without help, can they? ”

After the order, he thought again. Just now, Lao Xue mentioned the Rejuvenation Hall, presumably there must be a familiar doctor there. It's better to invite the doctor yourself and let people have a good relationship. After thinking like this, he asked, "Dare to ask......" He looked at Mrs. Li and asked her with his eyes, what is this surname?

Old Madam Li didn't know, so she had to shake her head.

Old Man Li had no choice but to say: "This eldest brother, which doctor from the Rejuvenation Hall is better?" ”

I wanted to use the title to stretch the relationship between myself and Lao Xue, but since I don't know, there is no way.

Lao Xue groaned for a while, and he was a little hesitant. If Dr. Shan is called, I am afraid that people will be involved in this lawsuit. There are old and young, and they also open a life-saving hospital to feed people, in the end, they are locals, if they can't bring down the Li family this time, and wait for others to relieve themselves, he will suffer. But Cuinong is still hiding in the Rejuvenation Hall, and I don't know if the little girl's illness is better.

Just as he was hesitating, Lao Xue saw Old Man Li's eyes on him. Nervous and panicked. He was immediately blessed to his heart, and when he understood, he said: "Please also ask the house to trouble, and call Doctor Shan from the Huichun Hall." ”

Old Man Li responded with a smile, turned his face to his subordinates and said in a hard voice: "Have you heard it?" Don't go yet. ”

The little guy slipped away.

Mama Jiang didn't understand it before, but now a group of people are connected with the master, hugging themselves and Lao Xue to the east wing of the main house, and no matter how much they don't understand, they can understand. She threw a look at Lao Xue, and the two tacitly agreed.

Lao Xue is no better than Mama Jiang, he doesn't stay in the back house all day long, but passes through the world outside, and he can think of more things. If he just knew their identities, then Old Man Li would not have bent his waist like this, it must be that the Li family is in danger now, and after changing their attitude, let them intercede. Otherwise, why didn't you kill the two of them immediately, and when the time came, Jingzhong came to find someone, and he insisted that the person was not in the house, even if the emperor was there, it would be useless. You can't just press a murder charge on someone without any evidence.

Lao Xue smiled in his heart, if he does too much injustice, he will kill himself, even if he can talk about some things, it is impossible to change the final outcome. The Li family didn't figure this out before, and they were powerful and prosperous in Nanzhili, but now, they can't think of it.

"The two of you will sit down for a while, the next person has already gone to ask for Doctor Shan, and it will be there in a while." Old Man Li felt that there was a smell of decay in the water prison on his body, and he wanted to change his clothes but didn't dare. He really didn't look down on Mrs. Li like that, for fear that after he left, he couldn't help it for a while, and he would offend people again when he opened his mouth.

Lao Xue nodded, pretending to be silent, crooked on the couch and closed his eyes without speaking. Mama Jiang only closed her eyes and rested, and didn't say anything to the Li family.

Mrs. Li wanted to rebuild her relationship with Mama Jiang, but seeing that others didn't want to take care of her, the anger in her heart also came up. After all, isn't he a subordinate? After Xie Liangqing married into the Li family, all the dowries went to Mrs. Li's hands, including the deed of sale of the dowries.

A subordinate who should have relied on his own snort, but now he has become a "distinguished guest" in the house, and Mrs. Li's nose is almost crooked.

On the other hand, the little guy who was looking for a single doctor in the last Huichun Hall, after talking to the guards and stuffing enough silver, finally sneaked out of the gate of the Li family. However, he ran away in vain, and Doctor Shan was not in the Rejuvenation Hall at all.

Although he saw that he was from the Li family, the little medicine boy's face was not too bad, and he only said: "Doctor Shan went to Feng Xiang's mansion for a consultation." If you want to find someone, you can sit in the hall for a while, or go directly to the Feng Xiangfu. ”

The little guy can't make up his mind, and the master of the house is still waiting for him to go back to his life. In the end, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and went out of the medical hall to Feng's mansion.

When the little medicine boy saw him leaving, he sneered, turned around and went into the medical hall.

Doctor Shan didn't go to Feng's Mansion to visit the doctor at all, but to complain. He also took Cuinong with him. Although the injuries on Cuinong's body are not good, he can also walk and speak, his medical skills are not very good, and he needs to hand over people to her master's family to worry about them. Furthermore, for the sake of Lao Xue and his cousin's family, let the adults make decisions for themselves.

Cui Nong was originally a descendant of the Xie family, not to mention Xie Liangying, but Old Madam Wei had also seen it, so she recognized it as soon as she saw someone. After the three of them cried, they asked each other about Xie Liangqing's situation, but they didn't know the follow-up, and they were very sad.

Mrs. Cao sent Dr. Shan to Feng Xiang's study to meet people and returned. When she saw that the three masters and servants had tears on their faces, she couldn't help laughing and said, "I have something very happy here, do you want to hear about it?" It was good to stop the tears on his face. ”

Xie Liangying asked, "What is it that makes Madame so happy?" ”

Mrs. Cao looked at Xie Liangying narrowly, and said, "Ordinary foreign men can't enter the back house, and I will make an exception for you today." She turned to the side, revealing the person behind her, "How can you thank me?" ”
