Chapter 053: Those Truths
Originally, after talking about the inn with Chen Wenzheng, it was still early, and Chen Qiuniang estimated that she would go to the market to take a turn, and there was plenty of time. Who knew that he would encounter such a danger and almost lose his life. After a battle with the thieves, Chai Yu was sent to the hospital to be processed, and the sun was already sinking.
Although Chen Qiuniang felt that it was very undesirable to leave Chai Yu alone in the hospital, she also had to take care of the old and young in the family, not to mention that she was even more afraid that Chen Quanzhong would come back and stir up the family again. For Chen Quanzhong, she must meet in person for a while. Therefore, she agreed to Lu Chen's construction, and repeatedly asked the doctor of the medical hall and Jiang Fan to help take care of her life, and then left with Lu Chen.
At the entrance of the medical hall, there was a carriage with two horses driving side by side, and the carriage was decorated with lanterns with the words "Zhangfu", and the decoration was very gorgeous. Lu Chen beckoned Chen Qiuniang to get into the carriage and said that Liu Cheng was waiting at the entrance of Liuhe Town.
Chen Qiuniang did not refuse, silently got into the carriage, slumped on the soft cushion in the car, had no strength at all, and didn't think about what happened today.
The carriage was bumpy, the whole person was in a daze, and suddenly woke up with a spirit, and the carriage had arrived at the entrance of Liuhe Town. Chen Qiuniang jumped out of the carriage and saw Liu Cheng standing under the archway at the entrance of the town.
"Brother Cheng." Chen Qiuniang shouted.
Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment, looked at her for a moment, then smiled uncomfortably, and then said, "It's not early, get in the car." He said as he jumped into the carriage himself.
Chen Qiuniang was waiting to get into the carriage, but found that Ma Si's car was parked aside, and Ma Si was weaving straw shoes by the carriage.
"Fourth grandfather, why are you still here? Didn't I tell you that I was going to be late, so that you could go back first? Chen Qiuniang was very surprised.
Ma Si glanced at her, then let go of the man in his hand, and said, "You are the one I brought to Liuhe Town, and I have to bring it back, otherwise there are three long and two short, how can I explain to your grandmother?" ”
When Chen Qiuniang heard this, she also knew that Ma Si was worried about her safety, and she would definitely not trust irrelevant people. Even if Liu Cheng asked him to go first, he insisted on seeing Chen Qiuniang.
"Let the fourth grandfather worry, Qiu Niang really shouldn't, I'm sorry, the fourth grandfather." Chen Qiuniang was very guilty, she was only worried about Chai Yu's injuries before, and she really didn't care about these details.
Ma Si waved his hand and said, "It's not early, you and Xiaoliu Langzhong take the carriage of Zhangfu, let's go back to Liucun quickly, don't let your grandma wait in a hurry." So he said that, he went straight to his horse.
Chen Qiuniang said "um" and jumped into the carriage of Zhang's mansion. Zhang's carriage is richly decorated, with a double horse-drawn set, and I heard Lu Chen say that Zhangfu sent a carriage to send him back in order to thank Liu Cheng for saving his life to the second son. There was also a ten-man escort horse team, still carrying bows and arrows, holding swords in their hands, riding tall horses. The person who led the team was Jiang Hang, who was extremely elegant, but his face was calm, which made people feel strict.
Chen Qiuniang got into the carriage, this carriage was more spacious than the one that Lu Chen picked her up just now, it was covered with soft cushions, even the backrest was very soft, and there were neatly stacked red satin quilts on the side, probably because she was afraid that people would accidentally fall asleep in the carriage and catch a cold. As for the safety measures, the carriage is very secure.
Chen Qiuniang sat opposite Liu Cheng, and when she saw Liu Cheng as if she was thinking about something, she pondered to herself, and she didn't want to disturb, so she rested on the soft backrest. Today's ups and downs, after a few turns before the ghost gate, she was already tired, as soon as she touched the soft cushion, coupled with the rhythmic sound of the carriage, she only felt that her consciousness was scattered, fluttering, as if she was about to fall asleep.
Suddenly, Liu Cheng spoke, and Chen Qiuniang sobered up a little, but she didn't know what he said before, so she had to ask: "What?" ”
"You—" Liu Cheng said a word, but just looked at her and didn't continue.
"I'm sorry, I was in a trance just now, and I didn't hear what Brother Cheng said." Chen Qiuniang was very embarrassed.
Liu Cheng shook his head and said, "Forget it." ”
"What's wrong? Brother Cheng is not a person who spits out. Go ahead. Chen Qiuniang asked, feeling that Liu Cheng was strange these few times.
Liu Cheng pursed his lips, lowered his head, as if he had made up his mind, and asked, "Qiu Niang, what is the relationship between you and that, the second son?" ”
Chen Qiuniang didn't expect that the doctor was benevolent and obsessed with medicine, as if Liu Cheng, who was not stained with earthly dirt, would gossip about her and Zhang Ci, and when she heard him ask about it, she couldn't help but let out an "ah". Seeing this, Liu Cheng said eagerly: "I'm sorry, I was abrupt, I shouldn't have asked." ”
"Brother Cheng is too worried. If there is anything I should not ask, I know that you also care about me. Chen Qiuniang said something decent, thinking that Liu Cheng must know about the several battles with Zhang Ci in the past few days. Zhang Ci, a child of a family who is interested in the village girl, is often staged, and Liu Chengting must be worried about her.
"It's nature. It's just that I'm always uncomfortable asking you this. Don't ask, I'm not sure. Liu Cheng was at a loss, only lowered his head, and didn't look at Chen Qiuniang.
Brother Cheng can be so honest, Qiu Niang is very happy. I have nothing to do with that Zhang Ci. It's just that I came to your house that night to apply medicine, which probably alarmed him, and I think I don't want to be an ordinary village girl, it's a little interesting, so three times, I got acquainted with it. You don't know, people always test me, thinking that I am deliberately clever to approach him, and I scolded him, and I have long stopped contacting him. Those who are powerful are very hateful. Chen Qiuniang replied. In my heart, I remembered what Jiang Fan was talking about, and some temptation was mostly related to Zhang Ci.
I don't know what that guy is trying to do. Chen Qiuniang frowned.
"Oh, that's very good. It's just that on that day, Jing Liang was originally escorting him back, and then I was temporarily added. That Jingliang's medical skills are very good, there are many things that I can't understand in detail, he explained it clearly in a few words, he is enough to send the second son back to the house, but he temporarily added me-" Liu Cheng suddenly said such a thing.
Chen Qiuniang was a little strange, so she said: "The second son's injury must be very strict, I am afraid that the carriage will be bumpy and cracked, even if Jing Liang is a famous doctor, he is also a person, so they asked his brother to go with him, but it is actually for the sake of insurance." ”
They say the same. But Zhang Ergongzi was in good spirits all the way, and kept asking me,-" He said this, stopped and looked at Chen Qiuniang deeply.
"What's wrong? What do you ask? Chen Qiuniang asked. Intuition has guessed the big board.
"Ask about you." Liu Cheng spit out these four words a little reluctantly.
Chen Qiuniang was stunned, Liu Cheng meant that Zhang Ci specifically called him, just to ask about her? This is not scientific, it is easy for the people of Zhangfu to investigate her, why bother asking Liu Cheng, it must be Liu Cheng who is too worried.
"Brother Cheng, you're too worried. What kind of spies don't have in Zhangfu? If you want to investigate me, to put it mildly, even the spies in the world must know about the last few times I went to the hut. Chen Qiuniang refuted Liu Cheng's determination.
"This, too." Liu Cheng also felt that Qiu Niang was reasonable, "However, you said that he swore a curse with you and swore that he would not have any contact with him, but why did he deliberately let you take Zhang's carriage back to the village today?" ”
"This, alas, is a long story." Chen Qiuniang sat up straight, and simply told Liu Cheng about today's affairs except for Jiang Fan's task.
Liu Cheng was horrified when he heard this, and hurriedly pulled Chen Qiuniang's pulse, and repeatedly confirmed that she was fine, so he ordered her to lie in the carriage for a while, saying that she was so frightened that she could only recover her vitality if she fell asleep immediately.
Chen Qiuniang had this intention, so she lay down on the side of the carriage and pulled the quilt to cover it. The quilt has a floral fragrance and smells good.
Tired, sleepy, and frightened, Chen Qiuniang's thoughts paused, her consciousness was scattered, and she just wanted to sleep well. As for the questions about Zhang Ci that she tried so hard to understand, she couldn't get together.
So, she simply didn't want to, closed her eyes for a moment, and sank into a dream.
