In the past few days, Ling Xiao has always been with Zheng Jiangde and Bai Ziyi, either drinking tea or appreciating paintings, and he is a gentleman. Even when Zheng Zhi occasionally met Bai Ziyi, he always saw Ling Xiao standing beside him. Zheng Zhi couldn't help but think several times, if this was seen by outsiders who didn't know, they would think they had some dragon yang fetish. Speaking of that Ling Xiao too, what is he doing with Bai Ziyi?

On the day of Ren's death, the county magistrate arranged for carriages and horses to wait outside the door early in the morning. Bai Ziyi and Ling Xiao each drove their tall horses and walked ahead. Zheng Zhi really didn't want to sit with Zheng Rui and stared at her, so she found a reason to squeeze in a carriage with her mother.

When walking to a wilderness with uneven roads, the carriage suddenly bumped, and Huang was about to fall off because he didn't sit down because of his weak body, Zheng Zhi, who was on the side, immediately instinctively grabbed her, but he was turned out of the carriage because of his unstable center of gravity.

"Stop! Zhi'er, how are you? Huang was anxious to get out of the car to see what was going on. At this time, the nurse in front of the carriage also rushed over and helped Zheng Zhi up, wanting to see if she was injured, but was stopped by Zheng Zhi, "Nurse, I'm fine, can you go and see your mother?" The nurse hesitated and had to go to see Huang as she said, but fortunately Huang was only frightened and was fine.

At this time, Zheng Zhi quietly moved her feet, and found that a piercing pain came from her ankle, which seemed to be sprained when she fell down just now.

When Zheng Zhi was thinking about what to do next, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and when she looked up, two horses had already come to her. Bai Ziyi and Ling Xiao had quickly dismounted and came to the eyes.

Bai Ziyi saw Zheng Zhi, who was covered in mud and mess at this time, and took out a brocade from his arms and gently wiped Zheng Zhi's face and hands, "How are you?" You okay? Zheng Zhi nodded.

Bai Ziyi wanted to help Zheng Zhi get into the carriage, but Zheng Zhi shook her head very slightly. Turning back to her mother and nurse who were waiting for her, she said that she would not take the carriage if she was afraid of falling again, and turned to look at Bai Ziyi pleadingly. Bai Ziyi is a smart person, and he understood Zheng Zhi's intentions in an instant, and said to Huang, who was still worried in the carriage: "Huang's mother-in-law, Zheng Zhi is estimated to be bored after staying in the carriage for a long time, so let her ride a horse with me to relax, and I will definitely protect her." Huang was relieved.

Zheng Zhi waited for the curtain of her mother's carriage to be lowered before slowly and with difficulty to move her steps, Bai Ziyi saw it in her eyes, walked over and suddenly hugged her, "If it hurts, just tell me." ”

In the surprised eyes of Ling Xiao and the others, Zheng Zhi was hugged by Bai Ziyi and put on the horse. When the horse passed by Zheng Rui's carriage, Zheng Zhi saw Zheng Rui opening the curtain to look in her direction, because of the light, she couldn't see Zheng Rui's expression at this time.

Ling Xiao then also hit his horse to follow, glanced at Zheng Zhi in front of Bai Ziyi's arms, and pulled a meaningful smile, "Brother Bai, I can't see that you are so temperamental." ”

Bai Ziyi smiled back, "Cheap is a filial daughter, since she has something she wants to hide, her husband has to help her." “

Zheng Zhi lowered her head and tried to shove her head down, she didn't want people to see her face as red as a tomato.

"Hahaha, Brother Bai, but this little grandmother of yours seems to have sprained her ankle, and if she doesn't heal it soon, I'm afraid it will be swollen and unbearable."

"It's hard to find a doctor in this wilderness, and I don't know how to treat medicine, so I can only endure it first, Zheng Zhi." Bai Ziyi's last note was soft, and he said to Zheng Zhi.

Zheng Zhigang wanted to nod, but Ling Xiao's voice followed: "Brother Bai, I am proficient in the treatment of bruises." My brother loves to get into trouble on weekdays, and the doctor in the house often treats his injuries, and I have learned a lot of treatment techniques. I'll teach you later, and you can give your sister-in-law a massage. “

After walking for a while, there are gradually residents crowded, and there is a small temple not far away, named Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple. After Bai Ziyi asked Zheng Jiangde, he ordered people to get out of the car to rest, and Zheng Jiangde led everyone into the temple to offer incense. And Zheng Zhi, Bai Ziyi and Ling Xiao made an excuse and found a wing room in the temple.

Bai Ziyi gently put Zheng Zhi on the bed and took off her shoes and socks. Zheng Zhi's ankle was swollen like a steamed bun.

"Brother Ling, what do you think will be done?"

Ling Xiao quickly turned his head and glanced at it, then turned his head away, and said lightly: "You want to eliminate the silt immediately, now Brother Bai, you see me gesture and follow ......" Ling Xiao gestured in the air, and Bai Ziyi followed Zheng Zhi's injured ankle.

"Hiss......" Bai Ziyi didn't control his strength well, and Zheng Zhi couldn't help but scream in pain.

"Does it hurt?" In front of him was Bai Ziyi's worried face, and over his shoulder, Zheng Zhi found that Ling Xiao also turned his head to look at her.

Zheng Zhi felt a little awkward, thought for a while and said, "The concubine's injured foot may not be healed for a while, so don't bother Xianggong and Ling Gongzi, and then find a doctor to treat it when you return home." ”

"No way!" Bai Ziyi and Ling Xiao spoke at the same time, and after speaking, the two glanced at each other.

Ling Xiao naturally patted Bai Ziyi's shoulder, "Ah, I said Brother Bai, you are a businessman genius in Nanzhili, why is it difficult for you to rub your feet now." ”

Bai Ziyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling Xiao and smiled chicly, Zheng Zhi saw Bai Ziyi smile like this for the first time. Usually the smile she saw him was gentle and calm.

"Isn't it because Brother Ling didn't teach well?"

When Ling Xiao heard this, his face twitched, "It's really hard to take advantage of talking to you." “

Bai Ziyi shook his head with a smile, looked at Zheng Zhi's swollen feet and thought for a while, and then said to Ling Xiao: "I'm really not good at this, now I can only bother Brother Ling to help a bunch of cheap people." ”

Ling Xiao didn't expect Bai Ziyi to say this, her face couldn't help but turn red and black, "I can understand your worries, but you can't rush to the doctor, how can I help my sister-in-law...... How will my sister-in-law deal with herself after passing it out? “

Zheng Zhi was also startled after hearing Bai Ziyi's words, and then felt a little lonely, Bai Ziyi didn't mind others getting close to her?

Bai Ziyi looked at the expressions of these two people and sighed, "Listen to me, it will take at least a few hours to return home, and Zheng Zhi's injury can't be delayed." Brother Ling, since you know how to massage, it is the best policy to treat the injured as soon as possible, and the doctor does not have to avoid suspicion. As for the rest, I'm here to accompany Zheng Zhi, and I'm afraid there will be any gossip. ”

Zheng Zhi wanted to speak again, but Bai Ziyi's warm hand had gently attached her eyes, preventing each other's gaze.

In the dark, Zheng Zhi felt that her ankle was held by a cold and slightly trembling hand, and after a burst of massage and rubbing, the pain was relieved a lot.

"Well, it looks better now." Bai Ziyi's voice came, and at the same time, he lowered the hand attached to Zheng Zhi's eyes. Zheng Zhi gradually saw Bai Ziyi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and her face was as gentle as usual in a burst of dazzling sunlight. But there was no trace of Ling Xiao in the house.

The subsequent memorial service went smoothly, and Zheng Zhi's injured foot was swollen little by little. Ling Xiao hurriedly left alone after paying tribute to Ren, and it was useless for Ren Zheng Jiangde to stay.

Zheng Zhi got back into the carriage on the way back. Huang brushed Zheng Zhi's sideburns, and said with a gentle smile: "It is said that the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple is very effective, and I made a wish to the Bodhisattva when I was incense, hoping that the Bodhisattva would not think I was greedy." In order to show my sincerity, the fifteenth day of the new year will be my fasting day in the future. ”

"What did my mother wish? Can you fast? Zheng Zhi was a little strange, although her mother had also worshiped Buddha in the past, it was the first time to see her make a wish to eat fast so solemnly.

"Silly child, how can you say that you have made a wish to the Bodhisattva? I'm much better now, and it's okay to fast once in a while. ”

Zheng Zhi moved her body and got closer to her mother, feeling the faint fragrance on her mother's body, just like when she was a child.
