CHAPTER XLIV

The two of them jumped out of bed, grabbed their clothes, and ran to the window.

The scene outside the house scared the two of them out of a cold sweat!

I saw a group of zombies rushing towards the villa area, and there were almost a dozen of them, and they were chasing Lao Lu...... No, there's another!

Before she had time to think about it, Julia pulled Yin Zhen: "I'll go get the weapon, you go get the key!" ”

The two acted separately, Julia grabbed a firewood axe and handed it to Yin Zhen, while she took a crowbar on the coffee table in the living room. Yin Zhen opened the courtyard door neatly, and saw Lao Lu running this way.

"Thank goodness you're back!" He finished quickly, looked back and shot another zombie.

"Lao Lu, you lean back, leave it to me and Julia here!" After Yin Zhen finished speaking, he shouted at Julia again, "Guard the door!" Don't let the zombies rush in! ”

At this moment, the axe in his hand had already neatly cut down two or three zombies, and beside Yin Zhen, the middle-aged man brought by Lao Lu also moved very quickly, and he hit the head of a zombie with a baseball bat in his hand, helping Yin Zhen temporarily relieve the danger around him.

There are two more new forces, and they have the confidence to go home, Lao Lu and they are no longer as panicked as they were at the beginning, the zombies fell one after another, and the last two remaining were broken by Yin Zhen and Julia one by one, and their brains were shattered.

The attack paused, and the four people looked at the zombies all over the ground in front of them, panting, and they were a little stunned for a while.

Lao Lu was the first to come back to his senses: "Let's go back to the house first, and then I'll clean them up later." ”

Julia had time to look at the visitor, and when her gaze fell on the other party's face, she couldn't help but be taken aback.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Brother-in-law? She whispered, "How are you?" ”

The person who came was about thirty-seven or eighteen years old, half a head shorter than Yin Zhen, with a wide black and yellow face, ordinary facial features, and a taciturn appearance.

"Long time no see, Julia." The man looked up at her, with no expression on his face.

Listening to that tone, there was no enthusiasm for reuniting after a long absence and escaping death.

Julia glanced at Lao Lu's back before explaining in a low voice: "He is Shao Tianming, Daddy's son-in-law......"

Yin Zhen then understood.

"Yin Zhen." Julia said, "He's just here, too. ”

Yin Zhen was a little nervous, he still didn't know how to greet the comer. The other party's gaze stayed on his face for a long time before he nodded: "Hello." ”

"Come in, what's the old talk about outside the door?"

Hearing Lao Lu's voice, the three of them hurriedly entered the courtyard, and Yin Zhen carefully locked the courtyard door again.

"Daddy, didn't you say you're waiting for us at home? Why did you run out again? Julia grumbled, "We were unlucky when we got home this morning, and we didn't even have a helper. ”

When Lao Lu heard this, he was also a little displeased: "You are, Tianming and I shouted from one end to the other, and our voices were broken-I obviously saw the upstairs window open, thinking that you were home, but I didn't know that you didn't come out after shouting for so long." What are you two hiding in the house? ”

As soon as he asked, the two of them suddenly became embarrassed.

Julia coughed first: "Dad, you don't know, we were unlucky yesterday, the river breeze blew all night, and Ah Zhen fell into the river......"

Next, she briefly told Lao Lu about the process, but she didn't mention the encounter with the killer.

Lao Lu nodded after listening: "No wonder." I went to the mint house just after dawn to get the soil in order. ”

The mint house is the villa of three in the back, because the roof is mint green, so they call it the mint house.

"How did you meet my brother-in-law?" Julia asked.

It turned out that Lao Lu was preparing for spring plowing in the mint house today, but when he heard the commotion of zombies, he climbed up to the second floor to take a look, not far from the door, a group of zombies were besieging a living person. When he came down to help, he realized that the man was his son-in-law.

"At first, I pulled him into the mint house and wanted to hide for a while, but there were too few weapons in the mint house to hide for long, so I simply ventured back."

Julia felt a little strange, so she turned her head and asked Shao Tianming, "Brother-in-law, why did you come here suddenly?" What about Yuanyuan? ”

Shao Tianming was asked by her and lowered his head.

Seeing him like this, Lao Lu also became nervous: "Tianming, what about Yuanyuan?" Why didn't she follow you? ”

"Who's Yuanyuan?" Yin Zhen asked in a low voice.

"Daddy's granddaughter." Julia said.

"I had a falling out with Sjepan and them, and they took Yuanyuan away." Shao Tianming said with red eyes, "Sjepan refuses to give me back the child." ”

"This brute!" Julia was so angry that she slammed her fist on the table, "Daddy, we have to settle accounts with Sjepan!" Get the kids back! ”

Lao Lu pressed Julia and said in a deep voice: "Don't get excited, discuss this matter slowly, Julia, go boil water and cook." ”

Julia held back her anger, she said to Shao Tianming: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, stay with us first, Yuanyuan will definitely be able to find it back!" We've got to fight Sjepan! ”

Shao Tianming wiped his eyes and nodded.

That night, Yin Zhen and Julia were cooking dinner in the kitchen, according to Julia: there is one more person, and it is a relative, so things have to be prepared more sumptuously.

Yin Zhen was very confused, he asked Julia, since Shao Tianming is Lao Lu's son-in-law, since he is still with children, why didn't he come to settle in the villa area? But to hang out with that villain of Sjepan?

After he asked, Julia's eyes dimmed, and she sighed softly: "Shao Tianming doesn't want to come over." Now, if it weren't for the child's accident and he came to ask for help, I think he planned to have no contact with us for old age and death. ”

"Why? Why wouldn't he come? ”

"He hates Daddy in his heart," Julia whispered, "it's all because of Lu Lingβ€”Daddy's daughter." ”

"What happened?" Yin Zhen asked again.

As soon as he asked, Julia's eyes were a little evasive, and she said: "Maybe it's because Lao Lu and him had a disagreement in the direction of Lu Ling's treatment, and later Lu Ling passed away, and Shao Tianming blamed his father-in-law for the loss of his wife." In fact, when I saw Shao Tianming today, I was also very ashamed, if it wasn't for Lao Lu who delayed my work on me, Lu Ling might have ......"

Yin Zhen remembered what Julia said before, and he couldn't help asking, "Didn't you say that she died of illness?" ”

After a while, Julia nodded slightly: "Well, liver cancer, I did liver replacement surgery, and the result is still ......"

Although the fire was not bright enough, Yin Zhen could also see the tiny teardrops on Julia's eyelashes. He took Julia's hand and let her lean into his arms.

It was as if something had changed, and both of them clearly perceived it, so even words were no longer needed. The scene that was interrupted before was still in Yin Zhen's heart. Julia would not refuse him, he thought, the only thing he needed to do next was to get Lao Lu's approval.

Come to think of it, Lao Lu will not disagree.

That night, the atmosphere at the table for four people was a little dreary. Although Shao Tianming let go of his suspicions and took the initiative to come to his father-in-law for help, the past was still between them, and even Yin Zhen, an outsider, felt it. What's bad is that he's not a person who can liven up the atmosphere, so he has to get stuck in it for some reason.

It was Julia who spoke first, and she said, "I haven't seen the circle in years. She's grown taller, hasn't she? ”

Shao Tianming nodded: "It's almost to my shoulder." ”

"That's good." Julia sighed, "When I see a child, I feel that there is still hope. ”

Who knows, Shao Tianming glanced up at Julia: "You can also give birth to one." ”

The whole table went silent.

Yin Zhen felt embarrassed, but heard Shao Tianming say again: "Julia, Yu Jin is still waiting for you." ”

As soon as he said this, Julia's face turned white!

Yin Zhen was curious: "Who is Yu Jin?" ”

Shao Tianming closed his mouth. Lao Lu's face was a little ugly, and Julia's face was even more ugly.

After a while, she suddenly whispered, "It's my husband." ”

Yin Zhen looked at her in surprise!

Shao Tianming sighed: "I thought you wouldn't admit this a long time ago." ”

Julia smiled coldly: "Is he okay?" Not dead yet, huh? ”

Shao Tianming frowned: "He is your husband, Julia, is it appropriate for you to say this?" ”

"I wish him an early trip to heaven." She raised her head calmly, "A man who sold his wife as a slave to Sjepan for a mouthful of food is not worthy to live in this world." ”

Shao Tianming shook his head: "That's a misunderstanding, Julia, he didn't plan to do that." You really misunderstood him. Yu Jin is not that kind of person. ”

"I know better than anyone what kind of man he is." Julia said lightly, "I don't need anyone to tell me what happened in the past. ”

With that, she picked up the bowl and went to the kitchen.

That night, Julia found Yin Zhen in the kitchen, and she told Yin Zhen that she didn't mean to hide it.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ My dad and I have long since thought that person didn't exist. She said in a difficult tone, "If Shao Tianming hadn't come over today, I wouldn't have wanted to mention this person." ”

Yin Zhen just lowered his head, wiped the water on the kitchen counter, and didn't make a sound.

The kitchen was dark, except for a finger-sized candle on the wall cabinet that was beating a blurred light.

Seeing that he was silent, Julia already understood a little in her heart, and she was a little sad: "Are you blaming me?" ”

Yin Zhen stopped and didn't turn around and said, "I just didn't expect that I had to call an outsider to inform me about this kind of thing." ”

"And what do you tell me to say?" Julia said in a trembling voice, "I told you earlier: I have a scumbag husband, I have been separated from him for more than three years, and I originally met the criteria for divorce, but now even the Civil Affairs Bureau does not exist - did you tell me to say that?" ”

Yin Zhen turned around and looked at her: "However, Shao Tianming said that it was a misunderstanding......

"Do you believe him or me?! Who is Yu Jin, is there anyone who knows better than me? ”

Yin Zhen glanced at her: "No one knows better than you, you know everything, but you don't want to say it." ”

"I can't tell you this kind of thing in the first place!"

"Well, I'm mistaken, I'm still an ignorant little girl."

Now, Julia can hear the taste!

She sneered: "Do you think I'm an innocent girl in the boudoir?" I'm sorry, but you're not so blessed! ”

Yin Zhen frowned and said, "Why do you talk like that?" ”

Julia nodded: "I know what you're thinking, men and women are different, plus different backgrounds, so it's no problem for you to have three wives and four concubines, but I, if I have been married, I am a fish's eye, and I am worthless." ”

"I didn't say that!" Yin Zhenyi threw the rag in his hand, "I'm not happy that you even hide this kind of thing from me!" ”

Julia's heart ached.

"I said, I don't like pretense." When Yin Zhen said this, his voice was lowered, "You hide such a big thing from me, how can you trust you when you tell me to do it in the future?" ”

"But I don't think it's the time to talk about that." Julia couldn't help but argue, "It's not like I'm not going to tell you all the time, I'm trying to wait until the time is right......"

"Do you want to wait for your husband to come to the door and tell me if you can't hide it?" Yin Zhen looked at her coldly, "At that time, the time is ripe enough, but what have we become?!" ”

Julia smiled bitterly, "Well, it's my fault to say it." Since you think so, then I don't need to defend it. Thankfully, you didn't have time to get out of the water. Congratulations. ”

After saying that, she turned around and left, leaving Yin Zhen alone in the kitchen, staring at the candlelight without saying a word.
