Even if you are reluctant, you still have to let the old lady settle down.

The poor old lady died, but the two brothers of the Ji family knew nothing. Yesterday someone came to announce the decree, and they have not yet recovered from the shock and grief of their father's beheading. My father talked to them every day and made big fuss, but he committed such a capital crime. Yingzhong was originally studying hard, waiting for the title of the gold list one day, but now it is like this, whether it is life or death is still unknown.

Outside came the jailer, bringing food and drink.

"Hurry up, eat a good meal before leaving, you will feel good on the way."

When did the jailer be so generous? The two brothers looked at the food and did not dare to act rashly.

"Heh, are you still afraid that I won't be able to take the drug? Do you like to eat or not, if it weren't for the explanation of the deputy director, you still want to eat these? Phew! As he spoke, the jailer made a gesture to take the food away.

"Don't, don't ......" Yinghong was anxious, they hadn't eaten a full meal since they entered the prison, they had been hungry for a few days, and finally saw these meals, even if it was poisonous, he ate them! At least be a full ghost.

"That's right, if everyone dies, no matter how good things are, they won't be able to eat them. Mrs. Ji is also stupid and ridiculous, the living can't eat enough, but she still spends money for the dead......"

When the brothers heard the jailer like this, they only felt that it was wrong": What did you say about the living and the dead? ”

"Don't you know yet, Mrs. Ji is dead......

"You don't talk nonsense!" Yinghong's eyes turned red when he heard this, and he went up and grabbed the jailer's collar.

"What are you doing! Look for death! The jailer got angry, pushed Yinghong away, and with a whip he came down, shattering the dishes, and the whip carried over Yinghong's cheeks, and in an instant the skin opened and flesh opened, and a deep blood mark appeared.

"Hiroyuki! Are you okay! Yingzhong desperately protected it, but how did a weak scholar confront the violent jailer, he was kicked hard by the jailer and rolled aside.

The jailer was still angry, it was always others who knelt and begged him, and when someone grabbed him by the collar, he threw up the whip in his hand and was about to draw it to Yinghong.

"Dude, don't be angry." Another jailer stepped forward to stop him, shaking his head at the whip-wielding jailer. According to the will of God, these two people are to be sent to the frontier, and they must not die in prison, and when the time comes, they will not be able to eat and walk around.

When the jailer heard this, his anger was nowhere to be released, and he still swung two lashes at the people on the ground.

Yingzhong saw that the situation was not right, so he hurriedly turned over and protected Yinghong, two whips came down, he bit it in pain, and there were two deep blood marks on his body, which was shocking.

"Big brother! You're fine! ”

Yingzhong lay on Yinghong's body, curled up in pain, but pretended to be relaxed: "I'm fine, manly man, but I will be whipped twice." ”

The leading jailer looked impatient, and a few people picked up the Ji brothers and took them out: "The food has been spilled, don't eat it, hurry up and get on the road." ”

The two brothers hadn't even recovered from the bad news, and let the jailer push them forward. Every time Yingzhong took a step, the clothes on his body were stuck to the flesh and blood, but all he was thinking about now was the news of the old lady's death, and the manly husband actually shed tears on his face. When he was pushed out of the dungeon door, he suddenly saw a bright light coming in from outside, and he couldn't help but squint, unable to see the road ahead.

Yingxiu had been waiting anxiously in the long pavilion outside the city, and saw two familiar figures from a distance, dragging heavy chains on their feet, and couldn't help but feel sad.

When they got closer, Yingxiu saw the shocking whip marks on their faces, and was sad, "Brother Hong, you ......"

"Second sister don't cry, it's just a skin injury"

"You must take care of yourself on the road, the hope of the Ji family is all on you, and your mother and sister are still waiting for you to save you." The bitter cold outside the fortress is very tolerable, and it must take amazing perseverance to survive. Yingxiu took out the silver and counted the two escorted officials, and asked again.

"Okay, okay, it's not endless, let's go!" The officials began to urge.

Yingxiu couldn't bear it anymore, so she had to say goodbye with tears, and the entire Ji family saved her alone, hoping that the Bodhisattva would bless the Ji family.

When Yingzhong and Yinghong turned back again, they could only see Yingxiu's black figure, standing alone on the high slope, they still couldn't help but tell her the news of the old lady's death, although sooner or later she would still know, but she couldn't say it in person, the second girl suffered too much, which made people feel distressed.

In the prison, the old lady's body was dragged out of the prison in a cry, and Ying Ning lay on the door and looked miserably, but she couldn't get it back.

The two jailers wrapped the straw mat on the old lady's body at will, put it in the grass pile at the back of the prison, and it was over, waiting for the old lady's relatives outside to collect the body, and the coffin money was still all greedy by them, and Mrs. Ji didn't know anything in the prison.

When it was night, a group of officials suddenly came to the prison, grabbed the daughter of the Ji family, blindfolded her, and went outside.

Ying Ning was completely blinded, she was scared but didn't dare to cry, she bit her lip tightly, and was pushed forward by the official messenger, she was just meat waiting to be slaughtered on the board at this time. It was pitch black in front of him, and the cold wind in the night kept blowing on his face, carrying a thin rain thread straight into his neck, and now he couldn't take care of it, and Ying Ning was only thinking about what would happen to him now. And Yingyao's trembling cry was getting farther and farther away from her.

Ying Ning was panicked at this time, her heart seemed to jump out of her throat, and she could only prick up her ears and listen to the movements around her. After walking in the wind and rain for a long time, finally someone spoke, the voice was sharp and impatient, it was estimated that she had been waiting in the wind and rain for a long time, and when she saw someone coming, she sighed, what a pity, and then pushed her into the carriage.

Where would those people pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, Ying Ning was pushed to the car board as soon as she stumbled, just waiting for the pain to come. But she seemed to have fallen on someone, and the girl below couldn't help but gasp in pain. Is there anyone else in this carriage? What exactly are they going to do?

Yingning's hands were tied behind her back, and she couldn't get up at all, when the carriage suddenly ran again, and had to press on the girl again.

"Don't move, I'll help you bite the strip open." Suddenly, the girl spoke.

The carriage was bumpy, and Ying Ning had nowhere to focus on her stomach, and she didn't dare to use her chin against the girl, for fear of hurting her, so it took a lot of effort for Ying Ning to gently bite off the strip of cloth on her face.

Lifting the strip of cloth, I saw a small, narrow carriage, and there were more than two people in the carriage, and at a cursory glance, five or six were crowded.

Suddenly, Yingning heard her mother's voice sound: "Ning'er? Ning'er, are you there? ”

"Mother!" Yingning turned around and saw that her mother was kneeling on the board outside, thankfully not letting them separate.

"Can you untie the ropes from my hands?"

The girl knew that Yingning was talking to her, and shook her head: "I broke free, and my hand was hit with a dead button, and there was no way at all." ”

Ying Ning lowered her eyelids, the rope couldn't be untied, she couldn't get up, and the girl under her must have been numb by her. Ying Ning turned over vigorously, ready to roll over from the girl. Unexpectedly, as soon as the carriage bumped, she was thrown out, rolled out of the door, and almost fell off the carriage. Fortunately, she stuck her foot in time, her body deviated from the direction because of inertia, and her head "banged" and hit the wooden rafters on the side, which hurt her teeth, and felt the hot and humid liquid flowing down her forehead, down her cheeks and to her chin.

When Mrs. Ji heard the sound, the first thing she thought of was Yingning: "Sister Ning? But what's wrong? ”

"No, it's okay......" Ying Ning didn't dare to say, for fear that her mother would be sad, and she didn't know if this forehead would be broken in the future, but it was okay to break the appearance, so as not to cause trouble in the future.

"Are you alright?" The girl worried, she felt a lightness on her legs, and it must have been the girl who had just pressed on her to get out.

In this case, Ying Ning didn't expect that there would be strangers worried about her, she smiled and shook her head, suddenly thought that the other party was blindfolded, thought about it and asked, "Where are we going to be pulled?" Are you also prisoners? ”

When the girl heard Ying Ning ask, her face was also full of sorrow: "I don't know where to go, they said that my aunt stole something and was beaten to death, and I was sent to prison by a group of wicked people......" Her face was full of pain, and it was an unbearable memory.

"Don't be sad, you are also a fallen person at the end of the world, what is your name?"

"You're as miserable as I am? Oh, no," the girl probably thought she had said the wrong thing, "I mean, what happened to you?" ”

Yingning said: "My father committed a capital crime, and our whole family went to prison......"

Sure enough, they were all poor people, and the girl knew that she had provoked the other party's sadness, so she quickly introduced herself: "My name is Wen'er, what is your name?" ”

"My name is Yingning."

"It's such a nice name, and it's very good-looking if it's a person."

Yingning Wan'er was laughed at by Wen'er's innocence and cuteness": The girl laughed, the name was just given by her parents, how could it be associated with whether she was good-looking or not. ”

"Otherwise, where would the man come from as his name suggests?"

Ying Ning couldn't answer for a while, and it sounded like she was reasoning": Wen Xiao is curling plum blossoms, and Tao Zhang's thousands of silver sweat are horizontal, that girl must be a person who dares to love and hate? ”

"Although I don't understand your crepe words, girl, I am right to dare to love and hate you." Wen'er smiled.

It's a pity that the carriage is dark and can't see clearly, Yingning thinks that Wen'er should have a pair of eyes that can talk and laugh.

And someone in the corner spoke, "It's really heartless, and I don't know if it's life or death in the next moment, but you laugh out loud and attract people from outside, don't bother us." "It's a girl, too, older than them, and sounds like fifteen or sixteen years old.

Ying Ning took a closer look, and there were four people in the corner of the carriage, in addition to the one who had just spoken, there were two women in their thirties and a girl who was not in time, all of whom were blindfolded by the five flowers, and they must have been implicated and imprisoned in the family in distress. But I looked around, but I didn't see my aunt and sister-in-law.

Wen'er couldn't get used to the tone of the woman's voice, she was so miserable that she didn't dare to speak, didn't she let others speak.

But the carriage was silent at last, and no one spoke any more, except for the galloping of the horses' hooves and the sound of the rain growing louder, and for a moment the wind was fierce, and the cold wind rolled up the curtains, and the rain mixed with the snow washed in, and the woman by the window was drenched in a large area, and shivered in the cold night. The rain beat on the tent of the cart and also on the hearts of the people, and the people in the cart were in trepidation, and they did not know where the carriage was going with them.

In the early morning of the second day, I could only see from the water droplets on the grass that it had rained heavily last night.

When Yingxiu received the news and came to the outside of the prison and saw a straw mat wrapped in a corner somewhere, she couldn't cry anymore, and was barely standing by the maid. Jia Xiuheng couldn't bear it, and hugged his wife and didn't let her see it.

Yingxiu fell into her husband's arms and cried bitterly, crying so dark that she fainted to death.

Jia Xiuheng fought hard, hugged Yingxiu into the carriage, and sent her back to Jiafu. I ordered someone to buy a good official wood and place the old lady.

When Yingxiu woke up, she pushed the maid away and got out of bed regardless of it, just saying that she wanted to find the old lady, Mrs. Jia was not at ease, sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her, and said some comforting words that people could not be resurrected.

When the old lady's mourning hall was set up in the nunnery, Yingxiu was helped by her husband to the old lady's coffin, knelt for three hours, and said some unfilial words about her granddaughter while crying.

There were very few guests who came to mourn, all for fear that they would be implicated in the Ji family's affairs.

Jia Xiuheng made a long sacrificial text, which was read sadly and made people cry. Yingxiu is more and more grateful to her husband, if she doesn't have him, she really doesn't know what she should do.

The old lady's deceased ritual was done for three days and three nights, and Yingxiu also kept watch in front of the spirit for three days and three nights, and waited until the night of the last day of the old lady's first seven, just after reciting the Tibetan scriptures and putting on incense, Yingxiu was about to get up from the futon, and suddenly felt a cramping pain in her lower abdomen, and a hot current flowed down her thighs.

"Young grandma! You...... You ......" The maid on the side was so panicked that she couldn't speak, and before Yingxiu could react, she fell down in front of her.

The mourning hall was in a panic.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, the young grandmother has a miscarriage, and the fetus is only a month ......"

Yingxiu was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. Xiu Heng just sent the doctor out, and Mrs. Jia hasn't recovered from the doctor's words for a long time, and their first grandson is gone? Whether it is a man or a woman, Mrs. Jia is extremely distressed.

Yingxiu didn't want to open her eyes, she really wanted to sleep like this all the time, her lower abdomen was still aching, her whole body was weak, she didn't know anything about her pregnancy, her negligence killed her first child......

Mrs. Jia stayed for a day, and she couldn't support it and went back to the room. Xiu Heng sat on the edge of the bed, watching his wife cry silently again, from last night to now, he was sad and distressed before the water entered: Xiu'er, don't be sad, there will still be a child gone, you must take care of yourself. ”

Yingxiu shook her head, not wanting to speak, it was all her fault, and she should pay for it.

"You don't have to be like this, you are uncomfortable, I am as uncomfortable as you, who knew that this child came so quickly, and your family suffered like that, no wonder you ......"

……

Yingxiu turned over and gave Xiu Heng a back.

Jia Xiuheng sighed, he tried to persuade him for a while, but it was still useless. He doesn't know what his weight is in Xiu'er's heart, without a child, isn't there still him?

"You have a good rest, don't cry anymore......"

Xiu Heng originally planned to go back to sleep in the ear room, but he was relieved not to let Yingxiu go, so he spread a quilt on the couch next to the bed, blew the lamp, and lay down.

Yingxiu opened her eyes, and it was pitch black in front of her. Xiu Heng is a good one, she just can't face him for a while......
