Yunni was dumbfounded, and turned her head to see the helplessness and bitterness in Wen Xi's eyes exactly like herself.

Xinghua sat on the chair, crying sadly, Yunni felt very uncomfortable, as if a dark cloud had been floating in her heart, so heavy that she couldn't breathe.

Wen Xi walked over cautiously, pulled Xinghua's sleeve and whispered, "Sister Xinghua...... Don't be sad, Brother Lu Ling...... Isn't it for your own good, worried about you, if you don't let you go? ”

Yun Ni also answered: "Yes, Sister Xinghua, think about it, if the elder brother of the Lu family goes by himself, the imperial court will definitely not let him go to the battlefield with a civilian official, and will definitely send someone to protect him!" If you keep up, maybe you will drag down the Lu family's brother! ”

Xinghua wept even more fiercely, holding the handkerchief tightly in her hand, and it was about to be torn.

The room was quiet only with the sobbing of Xinghua, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her voice was hoarse, Yun Ni couldn't, so she could only comfort Wen Xi softly, and let her cry, maybe better.

I don't know how long it took for Xinghua to cry out of strength, raised her red and swollen eyes from crying, and said in a hoarse voice: "What did you say...... I know. My husband was for my own good, and he was afraid that I would be in danger, so he deliberately looked at me coldly and let me stay at home. But in my heart, as long as I think that he is going to go to a foreign country by himself, and it is still like this, my heart is like an awl in a cone, and it is uncomfortable! ”

Yun Ni's eyes were full of distress, and he comforted: "I know, we know." Sister Xinghua, don't be sad, Brother Wu Song ...... early this morning. Joined the army and went...... In short, the more times like this, the more we should be strong, shouldn't we? Otherwise, how worried should people outside be? ”

Yun Ni's words slowly soothed Xinghua, in fact, she knew everything. It's just that I feel uncomfortable and hold it all the time. At this moment, when I met the two sisters Wen Xi and Yunni, I vented it, which would have been much better.

Wen Xi also nodded, his eyes were red, and he took Xinghua's hand and said seriously: "Yes!" Sister Xinghua, we should protect ourselves. Don't let Brother Lu Ling and his master worry! Surely they will be safe. Let's find a time, go to the temple on the Qinglong Mountain to offer incense, and pray for their safe return! ”

Wen Xi did mention a good building. Xinghua nodded in agreement, "Well, Sister Wenxi, Sister Yunni." You're right! In this village, who is not sadder than me? I should be strong! So be it. Let's go early tomorrow morning, husband and he will leave the day after tomorrow, and ask for a peace charm to bring to him before that, and I feel more at ease! ”

Yun Ni heard this, but was puzzled: "Sister Xinghua." Is the brother of the Lu family leaving the day after tomorrow? But Brother Wu Song and they will leave tomorrow...... How good is that? ”

Xinghua was stunned for a moment, then frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "That's the case." You go back now and ask Sister Xia Mei if you want to go now. Qinglong Mountain is only three hours away from us, and we will be able to rush back by tomorrow morning! ”

Yun Ni nodded, lifted the corner of her skirt and ran out, it was not too early, hoping to rush to Qinglong Mountain before the temple closed.

went home to wake up Xia Mei and explained the reason, Xia Mei had a trace of pain in her eyes, and she nodded in agreement. The two hurriedly prepared their things and joined the two girls next door, borrowed an ox cart from the villagers and set off.

Before leaving, Xinghua went to say goodbye to Su Shi, and when she entered the door, she saw Su Shi also sitting in front of the window in a daze, and her heart was inevitably sad. Cheered up and said, "Mother-in-law...... Sister Xia Mei and I wanted to go to the temple in Qinglong Mountain and ask for a peace charm for Brother Wu Song and her husband. ”

Su Shi came back to his senses, looked at the apricot blossom who was barely refreshed, and his apricot eyes almost turned into walnuts, but he still insisted on asking for a peace charm. Such apricot blossoms made Su's heart much better.

Lu Funian is older, and there is no him in this conscription, which is really a blessing in misfortune for the Lu family. If there is no man in the family, then there is really no master of the six gods.

Just thinking of his own son......

Su Shi, who was pleased with Xinghua's move, nodded happily and agreed, and took five taels of silver for her to donate as incense money. Xinghua wanted to excuse herself, but her lips paused, and she endured it again.

She is now a daughter-in-law, but it is not the time for her to show off with private money.

Bidding farewell to the Su family, the four girls got on the ox cart and invited the old man of the ox cart to drive them to Qinglong Mountain. The old man also sighed secretly in his heart, he has pulled a lot of people who have gone to Qinglong Mountain in the past few days, such a young girl, she also has a thought!

Yun Ni told the old man the reason why they only went out at this moment, because the team would leave tomorrow, so please ask the old man to speed up. The old man only came to this big mountain village a few years ago to settle down, and he was alone and had nothing to worry about. On weekdays, he relies on this ox cart to support himself. I knew that the Lu family in the village had a talent, and he also drank wedding wine when he got married.

At this moment, I heard that the lady on this car was Xiucai, and Xiucai had received the order, and when I was shocked, I also sighed at the same time, what a fate! I couldn't help but feel pity in my heart, but I made great efforts to speed quickly.

There are not many men left in the village today. The conscription requirement is for men between the ages of sixteen and forty-five, which means that there are only a group of children and a group of old men left in the village.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as Li Sheng, who is the village head, who will take over when he leaves? The court should also be on guard, in case this man leaves, what happens to the woman and child, wouldn't it be much more dangerous to have no man to organize and lead?

The soldiers are working the front line, and the wives and children behind them must also be taken care of by the court, otherwise, the army's morale will be unstable!

Therefore, there are a few young men left in the village, most of whom are the only ones in the family and have not yet married and had children. Originally, Wu Song was the back door opened by the county order and asked him to stay, but he didn't expect that he took the initiative to go.

The old man drove Xia Mei and them all the way to Qinglong Mountain, and the sky gradually darkened, fortunately, the old man had been driving for many years and was familiar with this road, otherwise it might be dangerous.

Xia Mei on the ox cart heard about the apricot blossoms, and she also sighed. Unexpectedly, the turning point of life came so quickly, and for Lu Ling, this was also an opportunity. If it weren't for the war, he would have to be admitted to the Juren, and then to the Jinshi in order to have a half-official position and go to other places.

This time, he was personally appointed by the emperor and took office, if he did a good job, when the war passed, if Dayu won, this will definitely have a bright future.

If you lose...... There's nothing to say about that, people are gone, what else to say?

Xinghua Mulu was worried, "My mother-in-law is not in a good mood when I come in, I am worried that my mother-in-law is in a depressed mood and will affect her body." ”

Xia Mei sighed and comforted: "Everyone is uncomfortable, and now that there is Brother Lu at home to take care of you, you don't have to worry." But when you're like this, you have to take care of your mother-in-law, and you don't want to be sad and sad in front of her, you know? ”

"Because Sister Su is worried about her son, it will be even more sad to see you washing your face with tears all day long. It's not good for you, if you have something, it's good to come and talk to Wen Xi and them. ”

Xinghua nodded thoughtfully and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Xia Mei." You're right, we should take care of it and don't let the husband worry about them! ”

Seeing Xinghua cheer up, Xia Mei was very relieved.

Thinking of his own situation, there was no joy in his eyes, and he turned his head to look at the top of the mountain, the temple was gradually revealed, and Xia Mei could even smell the faint smell of incense.

The old man sent them halfway up the mountain, and then stopped. "A few girls, this section of the car can't go up, I think it is the Buddha in order to test your sincerity, specially set up the road. Please be careful when you go up for yourself! ”

Xia Mei jumped out of the car, took out the silver taels from her sleeve pocket, and smiled at the old man: "Thank you, uncle, we know." I might have to stay here for the night tonight, so let's go up with us, right? It shouldn't be okay to leave the car here, right? ”

The old man took the silver coin, and was a little hesitant when he heard what Xia Mei said, "This...... Girl, I'll rely on this car to eat, and if there is a case, I won't be able to live. So the old man can't take risks, and I ask the girl to forgive me. ”

Xia Mei smiled lightly: "It's okay, the old man is not as good as this, this is only half an hour away from the town, I will give you fifty yuan, you go to the town to find a shop to stay for one night!" ”

The old man hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "Where do you use the girl, you give me money, there is no reason for this!" ”

Xia Mei couldn't help but put dozens of copper plates into the old man's hand, and persuaded: "Old Uncle Mo should be polite, you sent us here today for the sake of our husband to accumulate good karma." If the husband can return safely, we are already grateful to you, what can this little thing count? The old man is going to resign, it's not too early, the old man is going to set off. ”

The old man was poor by Xia Mei's words, so he reluctantly took it. He arched his hand and said: "In this case, I will leave first, old man, and I will wait here for a few girls early tomorrow morning, and then send you back." ”

Xia Mei chuckled and said, "It's so good, it's troublesome." ”

So it was decided, and the old man got into the cart and raised his whip and drove the ox cart down the mountain. Xia Mei and the others also walked slowly up the path. At this moment, the remnant sun on the horizon is leaving the last ray of light, the remnant sun is like blood, like crying, which makes people feel a kind of sadness in their hearts.

Standing at the top of the mountain, look around at the view of the towering peaks, all of which take on a hazy orange color in the setting sun. I heard the deep and nostalgic bell of the temple in my ears, and I couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of my heart: "The sunset is infinitely good, but it's just near dusk......"

After sighing, he took a few girls into the temple. At this moment, the temple was about to close, and Xia Mei made clear to the deacon disciple and expressed her desire to stay overnight.

The monks in this temple are all kind and kind, and the little monks are also peaceful and polite, which makes them feel a sense of peace in their hearts.

Therefore, I agreed to their request very smoothly, and heard that Xiucai's wife came to pray for blessings, and an elder in his sixties also came to preside over and consecrated peace charms for them one by one.

Xia Mei and Xinghua respectfully thanked them, knelt in front of the Buddha, and sincerely prayed for the Buddha's blessing.

The sun faded, and darkness fell. In the small temple on top of this small mountain, someone is praying for the comfort and sincerity of his sweetheart. The words that are difficult to open the heart are one after another, as if wandering between heaven and earth. (To be continued.) )
