Chapter 254: Jiang Ruan's whereabouts
The wind blows fiercely down the mountain, and it is the most steep in the early morning, and in the wasteland overgrown with wild grass, there is a huge deep pit, and the pit is covered with straw, and there seems to be some tempting aroma.
Two young men dressed as hunters carried medicine baskets on their backs, and from a distance, they saw that the trap had been hit with a large opening, and it was deeply dented into it, and the movement seemed to be quite large. The young man who looked a little childish said: "Brother, look, is there a big guy here, my mother has been blessed these days!" ”
The slightly older young man couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face when he heard this, and said, "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”
This beast trap was originally set up to catch big guys, but on weekdays, there are mostly wild beasts such as wolves and rabbits in this place, and there are no big beasts, and this beast trap is just for show. Who knew that Lu Dao was so lucky today, and he turned out to be a big guy, and the two of them were naturally overjoyed in their hearts, and touched the sickle and bow and arrow behind them, and then they bent their waists towards the beast trap.
The younger one couldn't compare to his brother's patience, so he trotted all the way over after walking a few steps on the cat's waist, and couldn't wait to look down at the pit, so frightened that his brother hurriedly called: "Xiaoshan, you stand still!" Beware of things hurting down there! ”
The hill didn't move, but just drilled into it with all his might, as if to see what was inside. Seeing this, his brother was even more anxious, thinking that his brother's behavior was a little strange, and recalled that the hunters in the mountains said that some wild beasts would marry and pretend to be injured to attract people, and when people stepped forward, they grabbed people by the neck and dragged them into the hole. Xiao Shan Mo was not bitten by the beast in the pit, and the more the young man thought about it, the more suspicious he became, and immediately picked up his sickle and ran over there.
As soon as Lu Dao was halfway run, Xiaoshan raised his face, looked back at his brother, and said in a disappointed tone: "Brother, it's not a big guy, it's a woman inside." ”
The young man's movements stopped abruptly, and he froze for a moment, and walked quickly forward to take a look inside. Sure enough, by the daylight outside, the pit was still littered with thick straw laid out for cover outside, and on the straw lay a man who looked like a woman.
The two brothers looked at each other, and at the last of all, the older brother said, "Bring people up first." ”
The hill slipped, and the two brothers, one outside the pit and the other in the pit, managed to get the woman out. Xiaoshan climbed out, sat on the ground, and said, "I'm tired to death, brother, is this person dead?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense." His brother stopped his brother's nonsense, and stretched out two fingers to probe under the woman's snort, although it was very weak, but there was still a snort. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, but fortunately, his life was still alive. Seeing this, Xiaoshan got up with a grunt: "Brother, is she dying?" Why don't you wake up? ”
The young man thought for a moment and said, "If we carry her home, it will be a human life." ”
Although Xiaoshan was reluctant, he still followed his brother home. When the brothers returned home, they just walked to the door of the house, and a fat woman with a headscarf came out, and when she saw them, she was also stunned and said, "Dashan, why did you come back with Xiaoshan?" Did you drop something? As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a woman on the back of the mountain, and said, "This ......." ”
"Brother picked up a woman who was going to die on the road, let's take a look." Xiao Shan Wu said to himself.
"Oh, God is pitiful, Dashan, you quickly carry it to my house and let this girl lie down, Xiaoshan, you quickly go to Dr. Wang." The woman was obviously also a warm-hearted person, and urged her son to carry the girl to her bed quickly.
Doctor Wang came over soon, he is the only doctor in this village, and it depends on him for any headache and brain fever in the village on weekdays. Most of the people in this village are simple, and when they learned that the Dashan family had picked up an injured girl, they hurried over. After checking the pulse of the woman on the bed, Dr. Wang twisted his gray beard and said: "This girl fell from a very high place, fortunately, she encountered some branch hanging on the way, so that it would not fall too fiercely, so there was a scratch on her arm. The worst one fell into your brother's trap and was only a skin wound. It's just that the doll in her belly is a little dangerous, but fortunately, she has taken a lot of fetal protection medicine before, otherwise she is afraid that it will be difficult to save the gods at this moment. It's just that the doll in her belly is not all out of danger, and she is very weak now. Xiaoshan Niang, the old man prescribes a few prescriptions for the fetus, you let Xiaoshan go to the mountains to collect some medicine for this girl to drink, and pay attention to replenishing her body, pregnant women pay the most attention to recuperation. ”
Xiaoshan Niang didn't expect that this woman was pregnant, and when she heard that Dr. Wang said that she fell from a very high place, she thought that she was a hard-working woman who committed suicide when she met a negative person. Thinking about it, he felt three points of pity for the woman on the bed, and thanked Dr. Wang for letting Dashan Xiaoshan go to collect medicine.
……。
As if falling down from a long distance, Jiang Ruan was dazed for a moment when she woke up, and her first action was to lower her head to touch her lower abdomen, fortunately, the child was still there. She settled down, and then she had some doubts, after the worst memory, she was lured by Yuan Chuan in the dark night, and fell from a very high place into the abyss, and she should be dead. Why, this is the world after death?
Naturally, this is not the world after death, and she quickly understood. Raising his eyes and looking around, this is a small mud house of a farmer's family, which is somewhat similar to the one who lived in Zhang Lan Zhuangzi at the beginning. It's just that it's brighter and more spacious, ventilated and tidy, the quilt is a blue and white quilt, embroidered with lotus leaves, the stitches are fine, and the material is more comfortable but ordinary material.
She looked around in a daze, the door was pushed open with a "squeak", and a woman with small feet in a blue cloth jacket walked in from the outside, her face was a little wide, but she had a kind smile on her face, the smile was very honest, she came in with a bowl of black medicine, and she was also surprised to see that she woke up, put the medicine bowl aside, sat on the edge of the bed first, looked at her and said, "Girl, you are awake." You slept for three days and three nights. ”
"Ma'am, this is ......." Jiang Ruan asked with a smile, stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, not to mention that this woman looked like an ordinary peasant woman.
"You fell into my son's pit, and he carried you back. Our village doctor checked your pulse, you are very weak, but fortunately the child is fine. This is a fetal protection medicine, you should drink it first. We are here in Qingping Town. It's good if you call me Sister-in-law Gui, but it's not a lady. ”
This woman smiled heartily, and there was a kind of sincerity in her words, which made people feel good when they looked at her. Jiang Ruan noticed that she still had the calluses left over from farm work on her hands, smiled slightly, didn't say much, called Sister-in-law Gui in a kind way, and took the bowl and drank the medicine in the bowl. After that, he said to Sister-in-law Gui: "Sister-in-law Gui saved my life, she is my life-saving benefactor, great kindness, and there is no way to repay ......"
"Don't talk about that!" Sister-in-law Gui was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "This is all human life, how can you see death and not save it, the two of the mountains did not save you for anything in return, girl, you are still very weak, it is better to stay here to recuperate." Since you fell into the beast pit in the mountain, it is also fate. You don't have to be stubborn. After thinking about it, Sister-in-law Gui said again: "It's just where the girl's family lives?" The girl disappeared suddenly, and the family must be in a hurry, do you want to ask someone to bring a letter to the family? ”
Jiang Ruan's expression changed, and his gaze deepened suddenly. Yuan Chuan naturally wanted to make sure that she died cleanly, and when she fell off the cliff that day, Yuan Chuan may not have sent someone to look for her, will she find this place, if so, wouldn't it hurt these people?
The way she wrung her eyebrows was seen by Sister-in-law Gui, thinking that she really had something to think of, and said cautiously: "What difficulties does the girl have, if there are difficulties, it is better to live here, the people here are very good, girl, I have lived for most of my life, I have never seen anything, and I have encountered a lot of suffering, but I still have something I want to say to the girl." This world is not easy, but after all, it is good to live, and at any time, don't give up your life easily. ”
Jiang Ruan didn't understand the meaning of Sister-in-law Gui's words at first, until Sister-in-law Gui covered her lower abdomen with one hand and said, "What's more, you still have a child, even if there is anything wrong, the child is innocent." You are the mother of the child, you have to raise him. ”
Jiang Ruan finally understood why Sister-in-law Gui said this, and thought that she was unladylike when she met someone, so she wanted to commit suicide by jumping off the cliff. As soon as her mind moved, she smiled at Sister-in-law Gui and said: "It's not a secret, it's not true, Sister-in-law Gui only knows one and doesn't know the other, after my parents died, someone who had a marriage contract with me married me, I was pregnant, but I found out that he wanted to swallow my family's property, and even wanted to kill me, I absconded at night, and was forced to jump off the cliff by them, and I didn't want to come here." ”
She said this casually, she had not seen these things in her previous life and this life, and when she said it, she only taught Sister-in-law Gui to be stunned, and said indignantly: "There is such a wolf-hearted and dog-hearted person!" Girl, don't be afraid, let's sue the official, there will be no justice in this world! Let's go, there are also scholars in our village, and they will immediately write a complaint to sue the official! ”
After Jiang Ruan finished speaking, she kept carefully observing Sister-in-law Gui's expression, confirming that Sister-in-law Gui's expression was not a fake, she put her mind at ease, shook her head, and showed a wry smile: "It's useless, he has people in the court, and those people are protected by officials and officials, and they won't make decisions for me at all." Besides, I'm not like a snake now, I just want to give birth quietly, but he won't let me go easily, I'm afraid that you will also be affected. ”
"Then don't worry," Sister-in-law Gui shook her head and said, "Our place is very hidden, and it was originally for the sake of escaping the world that the people in the village took us to hide here." The people outside don't know that there is a place for us, and this place is only a way to climb up through the rattan from the outside world, and it is impossible for the negative person to find this place. ”
Jiang Ruan just wants to know whether it is safe here, and when he heard this, he was a little comforted in his heart, with Yuanchuan's temperament, he must have sent someone to look for it at that time, since he didn't find it here for three days and three nights, it means that this place is also very hidden. She smiled slightly and said, "Then bother Sister-in-law Gui." ”
"You're welcome," Sister-in-law Gui said, "I haven't asked the girl's name yet." ”
Jiang Ruan said: "My name is Ruan Niang. ”
"Ruan Niangzi." Sister-in-law Gui said: "It's a good name, looking at the girl's expression and bearing, she is a girl from a big family, I just hope that you don't dislike us here." ”
Jiang Ruan shook her head again, exchanged a few words with Sister-in-law Gui, and Sister-in-law Gui told her some more words and left first.
Sitting on the bed, Jiang Ruan fell into deep thought, I don't know what the situation is outside the Dao now, she wants to send news to Xiao Shao, but who knows if the people from the Dao Yuanchuan will be guarding outside. Although she has not been found for the time being, she may be waiting for her to fall into the net. Besides, it's not safe to run around with a child now, so it's better to rest and wait for the child to be born before thinking about it, and by that time, the matter of Yuanchuan will be solved.
It's just that Xiao Shao must be worried again, and Jiang Ruan is a little worried.
After Jiang Ruan woke up, because her body was still very weak, she didn't go out for a few days, and it was Sister-in-law Gui who brought the meal to the bed for her to eat. Sister-in-law Gui was originally a farmer, but it was very good to Jiang Ruan, the two brothers in the mountains and mountains often caught pheasants and hares when they went out hunting every day, and Sister-in-law Gui also changed the method to make up for Jiang Ruan's body. Treating a stranger like this will be very touching to anyone.
On the third day, Jiang Ruan went out. Sister-in-law Gui rushed a piece of clothing for Jiang Ruan to wear for several nights. Sister-in-law Gui's figure is much fatter than Jiang Ruan, and Jiang Ruan can't wear her clothes. Sister-in-law Gui's man died early, she brought up the two brothers from a young age, I heard that Sister-in-law Gui liked her daughter very much when she was young, and she probably regarded Jiang Ruan as a daughter gifted by the top.
She took the new clothes to Jiang Ruan, which happened to be a begonia red cloth skirt, although the material was not particularly good, but it was also comfortable. The begonia flowers embroidered on it are also very fine, and Sister-in-law Gui said: "This was given by relatives who were doing business outside during the Chinese New Year a few years ago, and I can't pass on this material, so your young girl's family is dressed just right." ”
Jiang Ruan bowed, washed his face again, combed a fallen horse bun, and then thanked Sister-in-law Gui with a smile. Sister-in-law Gui was stunned for a moment before she said, "Ruan Niang, you are so good-looking." ”
Sister-in-law Gui can see that this woman is good-looking, but Jiang Ruan stays on the couch on weekdays, looking haggard and pale, no matter how beautiful people are, they don't look very energetic. Now that the condition is better, the whole person is in good spirits, and once he washes his face and puts on bright clothes, it is really different. Sister-in-law Gui was happy in her heart, probably happy that she had picked up the treasure, and she was anxious to let the big guy see how beautiful Jiang Ruan was, so she pushed Jiang Ruan out with some childishness, and said with a smile: "You also go outside for a walk, be careful in the house all day long." ”
Dashan and Xiaoshan were boiling medicine in front of the door, and Xiaoshan said angrily while fanning the fan: "Mother doesn't care about us lately, and most of the chicken soup stewed yesterday was served to that woman." Brother, do you think she's a vixen, why did she fascinate her mother? ”
"Nonsense." Dashan was angry and funny: "That's not how the fox spirit is used. As soon as he looked up, he was about to teach his younger brother a few words, but he saw his mother pulling a woman in red out of the house.
The woman's lips were red and her teeth were white, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, although her expression was gentle, but she was bright and incomprehensible, like the essence of heaven, the goddess of the nine heavens, and her crimson clothes were even more lined with snow. Seeing him look over, the woman smiled slightly, and the curvature of the corners of her lips made Dashan stunned, and she was at a loss all of a sudden.
"Big mountain, this is Ruan Niangzi, this is the big mountain and the small mountain." Sister-in-law Gui looked at Dashan and Xiaoshan and smiled. Xiaoshan, who originally came to look displeased, was also stunned when he saw Jiang Ruan, and for a while he stammered a little: "Mother...... Who is this? ”
"This is the girl that your eldest brother rescued," Sister-in-law Gui said, "I can't come back yet." ”
Jiang Ruan stepped forward and saluted the two brothers, saying, "Thank you two little brothers for saving your life." ”
The big mountain is only sixteen this year, and the small mountain is only thirteen. It's not an exaggeration to call a little brother, but both Dashan and Xiaoshan immediately blushed. Don't blame them, they have never seen such a beautiful woman, and she is not as beautiful as any woman in this village. Originally, they thought that Chen Xiaomei, who could recite poetry all year round, was the most beautiful, but Chen Xiaomei seemed really worthless in front of this woman, and she couldn't be compared at all.
The two brothers watched together in a daze. Sister-in-law Gui was a little funny, so she said, "Okay, don't look at it, let's go, Ruan Niang, I'll take you out of the city to have a look." ”
The two brothers rescued a fairy, and the news spread throughout the village that day. Many people want to see each other when they come to visit and give some food gifts, but Jiang Ruan listens to Gui's sister-in-law, and walks around the village more on weekdays, which is good for the children. The air here is fresh and there are many trees, and if there is anything bad, there are people watching everywhere you go.
Jiang Ruan is pregnant and already pregnant, which is also something that cannot be concealed. At first, everyone thought that she was pregnant and her husband should come soon, but there was no movement for so long. Some people who couldn't hold back asked Sister-in-law Gui what was going on, Jiang Ruan didn't let Sister-in-law Gui keep it secret, and Sister-in-law Gui told the truth. Everyone immediately felt embarrassed and sympathetic to Jiang Ruan's experience, and at the same time, it was difficult to understand that ruthless man, such a beautiful woman was born, and her temperament was so gentle, how could anyone be willing to hurt?
For a moment, someone had a thought in his heart. If Jiang Ruan stayed here all his life, he would have given birth to such a beautiful girl, and if he could be married by himself, he would really be lucky for three lives. So every once in a while, someone sent things to Xiao Sanniang's house, and asked Xiaoshan to send things to Jiang Ruan, which was naturally courteous. The young man often took Jiang Ruan to his house for dinner, and Jiang Ruan was always very warmly received here.
Sister-in-law Gui was very happy, she thought that there were many excellent young men among them, since she could take care of Jiang Ruan for a lifetime, if Jiang Ruan could marry her, the child in her belly could be regarded as having a father, so she should say goodbye to the past completely and start a new life. It's just that Jiang Ruan is very gentle to everyone, but she doesn't seem to have that kind of meaning, Sister-in-law Gui thinks that Jiang Ruan is too deeply injured and it will take some time, so she is not in a hurry, and only lets Jiang Ruan pick it well.
Jiang Ruan naturally knew the kindness of these villagers, and the admiration of those young people was in her eyes, but she had no mind at all. It was just a casual lie, but I miss Xiao Shao more and more these days, I don't know how he is now, if he can't get his news, he must be very anxious, but his belly is getting bigger day by day, and I am afraid that he will give birth in two months.
She sat in front of the door and made some clothes with Gui's sister-in-law, and what she made was the little clothes she made for her children. In those days of house arrest, I didn't dare to make clothes because I was afraid that people would find out. Now as the belly grows bigger day by day, it is time to make some children's clothes. Sister-in-law Gui has chosen very good and comfortable materials, which will not rub the delicate skin of children. Jiang Ruan was doing it with her, and Sister-in-law Gui said: "You also made small clothes for men and women, I like my daughter, do you like a son or a daughter?" ”
Jiang Ruan was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "I think, it would be nice if it was a son." "If he is born like Xiao Shao's son, he is also a handsome and picturesque child, but don't inherit his father's cold temperament, it would be nice to be lively. However, if Xiao Shao can teach him martial arts, Xiao Shao should also be willing.
"I think it's good to have a daughter, if the daughter looks as beautiful as you, then the person who asks for marriage is afraid that the threshold of your family will be broken." Sister-in-law Gui said with a smile.
Jiang Ruan also laughed, Xiao Shao should want to have a daughter, he looked indifferent on the surface, but in fact he was careful, if there was a daughter hanging on his neck every day and spoiling him, Jiang Ruan thought about it, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
When Sister-in-law Gui saw her laughing, she thought she had thought of something happy, so she also laughed: "Hey, I said that if it is a dragon and phoenix fetus, it is the best, and a son and a daughter are also lively......
As he was talking, he saw Dashan jumping back with a load of firewood, and Dashan Niang hurriedly went to pick up firewood and put it in her own warehouse, and said to Dashan: "You talk to Ruan Niangzi, I'll come over immediately." Dashan stood in front of the door, scratched his head, and looked at Jiang Ruan a little shyly.
He didn't expect that the woman he rescued would be so beautiful, and the young men in the village envied him, and asked him to bring some small gifts to Ruan Niangzi every day. Dashan can't speak and always likes to sneak a peek at her. He knew that Ruan Niangzi was a member of a large family, and the masters who read the most in the village praised Ruan Niangzi as a talented woman. She can recognize a lot of words, has a gentle temperament, and does not have the twists of ordinary daughters, she is very generous, how to look good.
Dashan is also a young man who is just starting to fall in love, and it is normal to like beautiful girls. Besides, this girl was rescued by herself, and the story is not full of things that like to say with her body. Dashan Zhilu said that Ruan Niangzi had a vicious husband, who was still hunted down and killed while pregnant, and her heart was distressed, thinking that there were such ruthless people in the world. But he was stupid, and he didn't know how to please Ruan Niangzi, so when his mother asked, he just looked at Ruan Niangzi and smiled innocently.
Jiang Ruan saw it, but only smiled slightly, looked at Dashan and said, "It's hard work little brother today." ”
When Dashan heard this, he was even more at a loss, scratching his head and saying, "It's not hard, hehe, it's not hard." ”

Haha......ha
