536. Extraten
After Nan'er heard Ouyang Xu's words, her face changed, and she finally knew that her identity was leaked, so it attracted attention.
Ouyang Xu is right, the dowry is the ultimate goal of those people. Now that the dowry has been transferred, Ouyang Xu is safe, so what these people want to deal with is themselves.
She didn't answer Ouyang Xu's words, seeing that his face was pale, but he was rushing because of his own involvement.
Damn, she should have asked about the situation a long time ago, and now that it's good, she can't find an excuse to leave.
"Who knows, those people may think that as long as they catch you, they will threaten the people of Ouyang Mansion, so they will do this!" Nan'er could only make an excuse indiscriminately, hoping that the groom could be as fast as possible.
I took them out, and now I want to separate, but it's not good, I can only go all the way to the capital, I hope there won't be too many waves on the road, otherwise, she really doesn't know how to deal with it.
Nan'er was in a heavy mood, so she kept pursing her mouth and poked her head out to check, and she didn't have the heart to say anything to Ouyang Xu, but her behavior made Ouyang Xu feel guilty, and she felt that she had burdened them.
These two people's hearts and minds are the same, and they just hope that they won't affect each other, but they don't know that they are inseparable from the first moment of entanglement.
The carriage was fast, but not as fast as the ...... that rode after it all the way Nan'er had no choice, she just wanted the groom to take Ouyang Xu and Forsythia first, and resist first, and they would meet in the next town. Her proposal is the most suitable at the moment, and Ouyang Xu also knows how high her martial arts are.
However, Ouyang Xu was resolutely opposed, and he would never allow himself to be separated from her, if Nan'er resolutely did so, he would get off the carriage directly, and Nan'er had no way, in order not to implicate the innocent, he could only let Forsythia and the groom get off the carriage and hide first, anyway, it was not them who were chased and killed, and there should be no danger.
With such an arrangement, the one who drove the carriage became Nan'er, but she couldn't do it at all, so she cut the rope of the carriage and took Ouyang Xu to ride out of ...... directly.
"Nan'er, I don't think we should go in the direction of the capital," all the way to avoid tracking, Ouyang Xu tried the second embarrassment in his life - the first time was because his father lost himself in order to help the emperor of the sea country, and then he met Ying Yanlian, who was not the princess of the protector at that time.
And now the embarrassment is something he hasn't tried for many years, and the exhaustion of his body and the injuries on his body make him a little unable to hold on.
"Not going to the capital?" Nan'er grabbed the reins and asked in some surprise.
"Yes, we will go all the way to the capital, and there will always be people who are following us on the way, so it is better for us to change the route, and not go directly from the capital, it will definitely catch them off guard," Ouyang Xu's mind turned quickly, and he looked at Nan'er and discussed.
Nan'er pondered for a while, thinking that it would take more than a month for the eldest brother and Sister Feng'er to get married, even if she changed her route, as long as she stepped up the time, it would definitely be too late, so she nodded and said, "Okay, listen to you!" ”
Sure enough, after the two people changed routes, there was a lot less trouble along the way, and it became cleaner.
Nan'er saw that there was no one chasing them anymore, so he took Ouyang Xu to a small village, planning to heal his internal injuries first, so as not to fall into the root of the disease, which is difficult to cure with money.
"Auntie, thank you," Nan'er helped Ouyang Xu into the house, and after packing up, she walked out with the silver and handed it to the woman with white hair stained on both sides.
"What's polite, your man's illness still needs to be well healed, seeing that face, it is extremely ugly, and you need to prepare some nourishment," the eldest lady nagged kindly, her eyes were full of love.
You man...... Such a title made Nan'er's face red, but she didn't know how to explain it to her aunt. Doesn't they have a relationship? But they snuggled up to each other along the way, even if they explained it like this, the eldest mother not only didn't believe it, but also thought that she had some idea in her heart and planned to leave people and run away.
If it's hard to explain, then you can only be silent.
"I know, it's just that I'm not good at cooking, auntie, I'll give you silver, you can help me buy some nourishing things, and help make them together!?" Nan'er blushed and said embarrassedly.
Mother said that women can not know martial arts, but they must not know how to cook, grabbing a man's appetite is just an excuse, and being able to take care of herself at any time is the greatest ability.
Her father and several brothers didn't want her to go out, not because they were afraid that she would be bullied, but because they were afraid that she would starve to death. Even if there is silver, it is useless for these barren mountains and mountains.
"If you are not good at cooking, you can learn, seeing that you are so young, you must have a baby at home," the eldest lady said with a smile: "The eldest mother's craftsmanship is rough, but you can eat it, you live here, the eldest mother teaches you,"
As soon as she heard that someone taught her how to cook, Nan'er wanted to burst into tears.
From the moment she was able to jump out of the kitchen, her mother tried to teach her some simple cooking skills, and the end result was ...... The kitchen was burned to the ground. Then it didn't work once, and then it didn't work a second time, but it didn't succeed and it was so good, and finally my mother finally gave up, saying that she was the kind of person who was born with no sense of cooking.
She can give the sword to the dancing sword light, but she can't hold the kitchen knife and cut a piece of meat well, which makes the whole family shout: Hell.
She glanced at the precarious thatched kitchen of the eldest mother's house, and was afraid that she would destroy other people's kitchens as soon as she entered, so she shook her head and said, "Auntie, I still have to take care of the people inside, so I won't study." This is the money to buy vegetables for you, please catch an old hen and stew it, and when the people inside wake up, they can drink it,"
"Okay, Auntie, I'll go," Seeing that other people's little hands are white and tender, and Auntie is not easy to force, anyway, people have silver, it must be a rich family, not bad at cooking.
Nan'er saw that the eldest mother didn't force it, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, afraid that the eldest mother would really insist, and she couldn't find a good excuse.
All the way over, they didn't have many joyful clothes on them. She just saw that the village here was very remote and the population was small, thinking that what she and Ouyang Xu were wearing was extremely incompatible with the people in the village, so she thought that after the eldest lady came back, she would let her make a few clothes, so as not to be inconvenient to enter and exit.
The eldest lady is also a real person, after buying the old hen, she even took out her own dry goods, stewed the old hen that was killed, and the fragrance came out far .......
"As long as we hide here and wait for you to recover from your injuries, and then rush back to the capital, it should be too late," Nan'er looked at Ouyang Xu's pale face and said with some guilt.
"It's okay, as long as the dowry is delivered, it will be fine," Ouyang Xu was worried about this matter, as for staying here with her, he was happy.
"Little lady, the chicken soup is ready," the eldest lady shouted at the door.
"Here," Nan'er replied with a head, turned her head to look at Ouyang Xu and said, "I'll go serve chicken soup first, you can sleep well after drinking, and take care of your body as soon as possible,"
"Well," although he said so, he didn't know whether those guards had sent the dowry to the capital or not, and he still had to go and see.
The chicken soup boiled by the eldest lady is not greasy and very fragrant, so that they even swallowed the bone and soup after sleeping in the open for several days, and almost gnawed down the pot, and the corners of the aunt's mouth have been closed .......
The two of them had eaten, rested for a night, and waited until the next day when Nan'er asked about the name of the place.
"Here, it's called Xiaohe Village, and there are only about 100 people in the village," the eldest lady replied with a smile.
"And how far is it from the capital?" She led the way indiscriminately, and when she saw a road, she walked away, completely unaware of what road she was taking, and now she is completely lost.
"Beijing?" The eldest lady narrowed her eyes and said a little funny: "It's funny for the little lady to ask, I rarely even go out to Xiaohe Village, how do I know how many roads it takes to go to the capital?" ”
"Huh?!" When Nan'er heard this, she couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
She didn't know, and Ouyang Xu definitely didn't know, he had been to the capital when he was very young, and he had stayed in Guquan Village for a while, and he hadn't been in Beijing since then, so he was definitely unfamiliar.
"Don't be sad, little lady, the eldest lady has never been there, but the village chief of Xiaohe Village has been there once, he is walking, and he must know that it will take a few days to go back and forth," the eldest lady said very enthusiastically.
Nan'er's eyes lit up, and she looked at the eldest lady and said, "Then the tired aunt will help ask, maybe when the injuries of the people in the house are healed, you have to ask the village chief to lead the way, and you will definitely give the round-trip rush fee," are all lost people, if she is allowed to lead the way, maybe, she will not be able to reach the capital for a year."
People who can get lost in the capital really don't have a sense of direction.
"That's a good feeling, I'll go talk to the village chief first,"
With the good news, Nan'er's mood also seemed to be much better, and she was cleaning up the clothes that her mother helped wash in the yard, and the smile on the corner of her mouth did not .......
"Bang," there was a sudden loud noise, and Nan'er was startled, and the clothes she had packed up and put on her hands fell to the ground.
"Don't give up," Ouyang Xuyu, who was also awakened, shouted worriedly. "Where are you? Say back to me? ”
"I'm outside, I'm fine," Nan'er's brows furrowed deeply, looking at the mountain not far away, and her heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Ouyang Xu, who came out in clothes, looked at her eyes and asked in a heavy tone.
"I don't know...... It seems that something has happened on the mountain," Nan'er said in an uncertain tone.
"It's too remote here, it's not something we're familiar with, don't go out easily, if there's anything, let the eldest lady do it," worried that she would be wronged by a girl's family, so Ouyang Xu completely forgot that the girl in front of her was a martial arts master.
"Well, I know," Nan'er nodded, thinking in her heart, what the hell was going on, why did this happen, and the people in Xiaohe Village were not frightened?
After the eldest lady went for a while, she came back happily and said that the village chief had agreed.
"Auntie, what's the matter with the loud noise just now!?" Nan'er asked curiously in a tentative tone.
"You say it's the mountains!?" The eldest lady looked back at the mountain shrouded in haze, and said with some hesitation: "I don't know, but I just heard from the village chief that this mountain didn't know who bought it, and I didn't know what to do on the mountain, anyway, it often makes such a sound." At first, everyone was not used to it, but then they slowly got used to it, and everyone didn't care anymore. ”
"Don't you know what's going on in the mountains?"
"No matter what we do, we are just ordinary people, who want to live a simple life,"
"But if something happens, you don't know anything, isn't it?" Nan'er didn't know how to explain to the eldest mother, in case something endangered them, it would be too late for them to find out later.
"This ......," the eldest lady's tone seemed a little hesitant, "what can happen to this?" They went into the mountains without telling us, only taking care of their own business, which should have nothing to do with us."
"Does the village chief know?" Nan'er always felt uneasy, as if something was about to happen.
"If the village chief knows, we should know," the eldest lady smiled and said with relief: "The village chief doesn't care about this matter, it's definitely not a big deal, so don't worry." Okay, it's time for me to cook,"
Nan'er saw that the eldest lady didn't care at all, and knew that she couldn't ask why, so she went into the house to discuss with Ouyang Xu.
"I followed my eldest brother and cleaned up a lot of bandits, who were hidden deep in the mountains, doing shady things...... The people on the mountain side of Xiaohe Village don't have any cats, and they won't hide and avoid the villagers, don't you say? Nan'er sat beside Ouyang Xu and asked.
Ouyang Xu looked at the girl in front of him who was talking with complicated eyes, endured the doubts in his heart, and said loudly: "Don't give up, we are fleeing, recuperating from our injuries, I don't want you to have an accident!" "If it causes unnecessary trouble, then he can't protect her at all, he really doesn't want to see her have the slightest bit of inappropriateness, it will drive him crazy.
If you are not injured, then if there is really any situation, you can go and investigate first. But now, he didn't want her to be in danger.
Nan'er understood what he meant, so she could only pouting and saying, "Okay, as long as it doesn't endanger us, I don't care about this matter, okay!?" ”
"Okay," Ouyang Xu smiled reassuringly and nodded.
Nan'er said that if she didn't harm them, no matter what happened, she wouldn't get involved. However, it endangered them, and if she didn't get involved, she would really be sorry for herself.
Living in Xiaohe Village, Nan'er hears the violent sound almost every day, because she is used to it, so she is also numb and has no feelings.
It wasn't until one day, when something happened to Xiaohe Village, that she felt that something was wrong.
"Aunt Hao, have you seen my family?" At the gate of the eldest lady's courtyard, there was a young woman lying on her stomach, shouting anxiously at the moment.
"Right? No, I haven't been out today, what's wrong? Is Zheng'er gone? The eldest lady sat in the yard and chatted with Nan'er, and when she heard Zheng'er Niang ask, she asked worriedly.
"Yes, I don't know where I've been, and I haven't even come back for lunch," Zheng'er Niang looked at the road at the entrance of the village with a worried face, and her eyes were red with anxiety.
"Go talk to everyone, let everyone help find it in the village, if you go to that house to eat, maybe you can," the aunt stood up and smiled and reassured.
"I've gone to several houses, and they all said that they didn't see Zheng'er," Zheng'er's mother's face was ugly, and she was afraid that something would happen to the good child.
"Auntie, you go to the village to find everyone to help you find it, and I'll accompany the eldest sister to the front to have a look," Nan'er couldn't bear her being so worried about being a mother, so she hurriedly spoke.
"Okay, be careful, there are puddles in this village," the eldest lady reminded, and then spread her legs and went to the village to .......
The eldest lady's home is at the entrance of the village, which is why Nan'er and Ouyang Xu will live here after they come.
"Eldest sister, when did you disappear from your family? Is he alone? Nan'er held the woman who was about to faint in front of her and talked to her, lest she couldn't hold on.
"He disappeared in the morning, saying that he went to play with a few children in the village, and several people came back, but he didn't come back," Zheng'er Niang staggered and said with difficulty.
"Have you asked the kids, do you know where they go to play?" Nan'er asked curiously.
"I asked, but they only said that Zheng'er didn't know where to go by himself, and they weren't with him at all,"
"How so?" Nan'er was a little puzzled.
Nan'er supported the exhausted Zheng'er Niang, who couldn't go far at all, and the stop-and-go was not as steady and fast as Aunt Hao's footsteps.
"Zheng'er Niang, everyone in the village has looked for it, but I haven't found Zheng'er," Aunt Hao said breathlessly, "I don't know where this child went, I was at home with the little lady all day today, if Zheng'er went out of the village, he would definitely pass by my door, and the kid would definitely call me," out of Xiaohe Village, her house is the only way, otherwise she will have to take the waterway."
"If he hadn't left the village, where would he go?" Zheng'erniang's face was full of fear, and she didn't dare to face the final consequences.
"This ...... We don't know, it's better to look carefully in the village, the village chief is already asking the children who went out with Zheng'er, maybe they can know something, "Aunt Hao knows that Zheng'er is the only seedling in their family, if something happens, but if it is a big deal, I don't dare to be a little sloppy."
Nan'er listened to the words of the eldest mother, so she helped Zheng'er Niang to go to the village together. She is now wearing coarse cloth clothes, her hair is not neatly combed, and in order to cover her appearance, she also deliberately made bangs, as long as she does not make a sound, she is no different from the women in the village.
It was the first time she had been to the village since she came. The villagers of Xiaohe Village all knew that there was a young couple living in Hao Damiang's house, but they had never seen them go out, so they only knew that they had not seen them.
When the villagers of Xiaohe Village saw a young lady helping Zheng'er Niang over, they knew that the person in front of them was living in Hao Da Niang's house.
"Zheng'er Niang, a few boys said that Zheng'er is going to the back mountain," the village chief said loudly when he saw Zheng'er Niang, who was about to lose his position.
