After the retreat was completed and the number of dead and wounded was reported at various marching points, Xia Housi finally returned to the camp tent and knelt on one knee and kowtowed, "General." ”

Shen Qiyuan was wiping the sharp blade, and after listening to the movements in his hand, he paused slightly, and then moved again, and the bright blade reflected his deep light, "Get up." ”

Xiahou Si thought about the beginning of the war, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he hesitated before getting up, and only said: "This battle did not last long, because there were not many dead and wounded, but the morale of the army was not stable, and there were faint rumors that the general wanted to abscond back to Beijing........."

Shen Qiyuan said saved, and then put the polished blade into the sheath, and the sharp blade scraped the metal to make a scalp-tingling sound, and then saw Shen Qiyuan look back and look at him with those pale and weak eyes.

"I have to ask you for one thing........."

Although the words were not finished, Xia Housi had already understood, but he still continued to listen, "You lead a small group of people to take Ding Chen back, and go to the cliff where the third girl fell to find her........"

At this point, Xia Housi had already heard a choked voice, and when he raised his head, he saw that his eyes were already wet, trembling and shining in the flickering candle flame.

Xia Housi was stunned.

Shen Qiyuan ignored it and took a deep breath, "If you find it, ........ her Shipped over......... If you don't find it........ and he made a mound for me in that place......... And write 'The Tomb of Shen Qiyuan's Dead Wife', and when I return triumphantly, I will go to her again. ”

Xia Housi didn't know how Shen Qiyuan said this, and he didn't know why Shen Qiyuan changed his mind, maybe it was because he saw the battlefield fighting, saw so many soldiers and generals with bright eyes because of his arrival, or thought that among these people, there were still wives and old women waiting at home........

But no matter why, Xia Housi will not ask, because there is a law of both in the world?

Yes, Xiahou Si received the order, and soon led a group of people and horses to go quickly.

Shen Qiyuan climbed the stairs and looked into the distance, seeing the dusty sky, a sad and helpless look gradually appeared on his face, but his back was still straight, as if nothing could override him.

But Shen Qiyuan knew....... Something is festering from the inside........

Outside the capital, barren mountains are all over the wilderness, the vegetation is clustered, and sometimes there are a lot of rare and exotic grasses, so there is a small village that breeds here, I don't know when it started, but it has been rare for people to come, and they all make a living by selling some firewood or selling some herbs.

Because of the need for manual work, it is the best livelihood for these people, and it also creates that there are few women here, and because of the poverty of the village, even if they propose marriage, few families are willing to marry their daughters.

The Wang family was worried about where to find the daughter-in-law, but he didn't expect his eldest son Wang Fugui to find a woman when he went up the mountain to buy medicinal herbs the day before yesterday, and thought it was a corpse, but he didn't expect it to be alive, but the injury was very serious, and he is still lying in bed and unable to fall asleep to this day.......

But how can the daughter-in-law who picked it up for nothing be thrown away, let alone look so smart?

"Rich ...... I'm going to collect medicine for your daughter-in-law again? ”

The old man with a dry cigarette at the mouth of the street squinted slightly and grinned.

Wang Fugui scratched his head and nodded a little shyly.

Wang Fugui has always been silent, and everyone ridicules this kind of thing, and everyone will be more or less shy, so the old man didn't tease him much, but after saying a few words, he let Wang Fugui go.

Wang Fugui saw the vast mountain road in front of him, and couldn't help but tighten the back basket on his shoulders and climb up, I don't know how long it took, and when he came back, he was already sweating profusely.

Before I could wipe it, an old woman rushed out of the entrance of the village, crying and crying with joy, "Where have you been, you dead baby!" ”

Wang Fugui pinched the hoe and shouted, "Mother," and then seemed to think of something, and asked directly: "Is there something wrong with that girl?" ”

"There's no accident, there's no accident, the gourd with a saw-mouthed mouth can't say a good word," the old woman glanced at him, "It's your daughter-in-law who has woken up, why don't you go back and see your daughter-in-law quickly!" ”

When Wang Fugui heard this, he hurriedly ran back, but as soon as he reached the door, he suddenly heard a sound of broken porcelain.

Wang Fugui's heart tightened, and he quickly pushed open the door, and saw the woman in the deep linen cloth lying on the bed, and her ten fingers were struggling to lean against the things on the ground.

"What are you doing?"

The woman's misty eyes were slightly open, as if the sky full of stars fell into Wang Fugui's eyes, which made his heart beat rapidly for no reason, and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted and went up to help her.

But the woman said in a faint voice, 'thirsty'.

Wang Fugui hurriedly shouted at the old woman: "Mother, she is thirsty." ”

The old woman said again and again, hurriedly grabbed the door and went out, looking at digging a bowl of water, as soon as she got out of the kitchen door, Wang Fugui ran over in a hurry, ready to reach out and take it.

The old woman withdrew the clear water into her body and glared at Wang Fugui, "Bring it to your daughter-in-law, and ask her what her name is by the way!" ”

The word 'daughter-in-law' bites very hard, and then there seem to be words, but it seems that there are none.

Wang Fugui frowned slightly when he heard this, nodded vaguely, and then took the water and handed it to the woman.

The woman was probably too thirsty, holding the water and drinking it, but although she was extremely thirsty, she also took small sips, yes, and from Wang Fugui's point of view, it was just a clay bowl that lacked a few mouthfuls, but it was held in her hand by the slender ten fingers, as if holding Qiongju, beautiful as a carving, as clever as a heavenly workmanship.

The woman finished drinking, put the bowl down, and the eyelashes like butterfly wings fluttered, and the rippling light swept towards him, "Thank you......."

The sound was like a string, and it was like the sound of gurgling water, which made Wang Fugui's heart stirred........ The hand that held the bowl couldn't help but tighten, and his face became cramped, "No thanks........"

As if remembering something again, Wang Fugui licked his dry lips, "May I ask the girl, what is your name.........

The woman's young and beautiful face turned, the corners of her mouth tugged slightly, and then drooped down, "I don't remember........"

Wang Fugui was a little surprised, and before he could say anything, he heard the woman say again: "May I ask what is the name of the eldest brother?" Where did you find me? ”

Wang Fugui wanted to answer, but suddenly heard the sound of the door being vibrated open.

The two couldn't help but look at that place, and saw that it was an old woman with wrapped feet, and came in with a smile on her face, "Chunhua, you can sleep well when you wake up, mother-in-law still has something to say about your husband.........

The woman was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang Fugui with autumn-like eyes, "Is my name Chunhua?" ”

Wang Fugui spoke, and the old woman interrupted the conversation between the two, and hurriedly pulled Wang Fugui outside.

As soon as the door closed, Wang Fugui couldn't wait to shake off the old woman, "Mother, what are you doing?" ”
