That night, Li Zheng gathered the people in the village and began to help Shen Qiao arrange the mourning hall for the Zhou family. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Because Shen Qiao's family only had their mother and daughter, and they didn't have their own coffins like other families, so Zhou was carried back and placed on a wooden board.

It wasn't until the next day that Li Zheng would go to the next village to buy coffins for the Zhou family.

Shen Qiao had no spirit and didn't speak all the time.

Ngawang went after the only one, and he did not return.

Therefore, everything outside is taken care of by Gu Xuan.

Fortunately, it was a man who came to the Shen family, otherwise, he would definitely be frightened when he saw the corpses of the Shen family.

Li Zheng asked the villagers to load the bodies of the killers onto an ox cart and pull them deep into the back mountain to throw them away.

The villagers are simple, but for this kind of fellow villagers who killed them, they don't care if the corpse will be eaten by wild beasts when thrown into the back mountain.

In fact, this is also a favor that Gu Xuan asked Li Zheng to help.

Shen Qiao had been in the hall, sitting next to Zhou's corpse, looking at Zhou, without a single glance.

She didn't cry anymore, her eyes were red.

Even the older uncles and grandparents who wanted to step forward to comfort them couldn't bear to step forward.

Almost two hours later, Shen Qiao's house was arranged, and most of the villagers went back, only Li Zheng stayed with his daughter-in-law, and Qingyan Niang and Dr. Sun next door.

Seeing that Gu Xuan was done, Doctor Sun finally had the opportunity to come forward and bandage his wounds.

"Gu Gongzi, do you think this funeral needs to be done in a big way? In my opinion, Shen Qiao's mother and daughter have no relatives, so the people in our village can ask for a set of gongs and drums. The rest of the things, the people in our village have come up with ideas. ”

On a table in the courtyard, Dr. Sun was dressing Gu Xuan with medicine, and Li Zheng was sitting on the side and said.

Gu Xuan's wound was stabbed by the medicine, and he frowned and said, "Uncle, you can decide this matter!" I don't know anything about Qiaoqiao, so I'll have to trouble you about this. I don't have to worry about the silver, I have it here. ”

Li Zheng shook his head and said, "It doesn't cost much silver for us to help in the village together, but it will cost a little to buy a coffin in the next village for a while." ”

Li Zheng said, looking at the hall, Shen Qiao was motionless, Qingyan Niang was holding a bowl of things and was persuading her to eat, then sighed and said, "Gu Gongzi, Qiao Qiao is now fatherless and motherless, it is really distressing to watch." No matter what you plan to do next, I hope you can take her with you, or she'll be alone...... Alas......"

Doctor Sun bandaged Gu Xuan and told him not to go near the water for a few days.

Gu Xuan nodded, thanked him, and said to Li Zheng: "Uncle, don't worry, I will take Qiaoqiao wherever I go in the future." If she is willing to stay in Taiping Village, I will accompany her. ”

At this moment, Gu Xuan really thought so in his heart.

If Shen Qiao said that he would stay in Taiping Village in the future, he would definitely accompany her. It's just that he's going to have to wait until he's done what he didn't do last night.

"That's fine. Okay, Lao Sun, let's go back and rest for an hour, Gu Xuan is watching here. ”

Li Zheng got up and said to Dr. Sun beside him.

Gu Xuan also got up and sent the two of them outside the courtyard.

It wasn't until he saw the two of them walking away that Gu Xuan returned to the house.

"Auntie, I'll come! You're coming over for the night, so let's go back and rest! Tomorrow, many things will depend on the help of my aunt. ”

Gu Xuan took the bowl in Qingyan Niang's hand and said.

"Alas~"

Qingyan Niang didn't say anything, sighed, then nodded to Gu Xuan and left.

There were a few tables lit with oil lamps on the table that had just been set up in the courtyard outside the house, and Qingyan Niang extinguished them by the way when she left.

"Qiaoqiao, you can eat some!"

Gu Xuan dragged a stool over and sat aside.

Shen Qiao did not respond.

She was like a log, soulless, and sat still.

Gu Xuan sighed, put down the bowl and went to the kitchen.

Just before the fire that Qingyan Niang burned just now was not extinguished, Gu Xuan put the pot up and boiled the hot water.

Shen Qiao's body was really embarrassed.

The blood that Zhou shed just now, she was stained with a lot of it.

Gu Xuan had to let her wash it, otherwise, it wouldn't be good for people who came tomorrow to see it like this.

After boiling the water, Gu Xuan took the basin, poured it, added some cold food, took a handkerchief, and brought it to her with one hand.

"Qiaoqiao, wipe your body, you have blood all over your body, wipe it clean and change your clothes!"

Gu Xuan used the hand that had collected the injury to pull Shen Qiao.

Shen Qiao still didn't move.

If Gu Xuan hadn't been able to hear Shen Qiao's breathing clearly, he would really have thought that there was a dead man sitting in front of him.

"Qiaoqiao, then I'll wipe your face?"

Seeing this, Gu Xuan asked in a low voice.

Shen Qiao still didn't answer.

Gu Xuan was helpless, soaked the handkerchief, then squeezed out the water, walked to Shen Qiao's side and gently wiped her face.

His movements were very light and light, as if he were wiping a beloved treasure.

Then there was the blood stain on his neck, Gu Xuan went back and forth two or three times, and the basin was already blood-red.

Shen Qiao's face was wiped clean, but there were still blood stains on his body and hair.

Seeing this, Gu Xuan didn't know what to do.

He went out and poured water, and then prepared to boil another pot and let Shen Qiao wash it.

When you're done, come back again.

He stepped forward, put the stool close to Shen Qiao, then hugged her in his arms, and said, "Qiaoqiao, it's okay." You still have me. Don't be sad, no matter what happens in the future, I will not leave you, you are not alone. ”

Shen Qiao let Gu Xuan hold him, and his body didn't move.

Gu Xuan was anxious, distressed, and his eyes were red.

"Qiaoqiao, don't be like this, okay. I'm very sick of you like this. It's all my fault for not protecting my aunt. It's me who is careless, it's me who is careless. Can you tell me a word? ”

Gu Xuan's voice was a little hoarse.

"Gu Xuan, are you injured?"

Shen Qiao finally spoke.

Because Gu Xuan was holding her, the injured arm happened to be in the direction that Shen Qiao's head was close to.

With such a force, the wound was automatically opened.

The white gauze that Dr. Sun used to bandage him just now had blood stains soaked out.

"It's okay, Jojo, I'm fine. It's a minor injury. ”

Hearing Shen Qiao speak, Gu Xuan straightened her in surprise and said.

"Gu Xuan, I want to take a bath."

Shen Qiao said again.

"Good, good. I've boiled hot water for you. I'll bring the barrel to your house in a while, and you wash it, and I'll keep watch over my aunt here." ”

Hearing Shen Qiao say this, Gu Xuan hurriedly said.

"What about Ngawang?"

Shen Qiao continued.

"Ngawang ......"

Gu Xuan hesitated.

He didn't know whether to tell Shen Qiao whether he should tell Ah Wang to arrest the rest of the people.

Just now, Shen Qiao must have seen the corpse in the courtyard when he came back with the person who carried the Zhou family back.

"Is there still a mouthful?"

Seeing Gu Xuan's hesitation, Shen Qiao asked.
