Chapter 68: Concealment (2)

During this period of time, Ling Yuanhang did not return to Feicheng, anyway, Xiliang City could not be recovered in a day or two, and the most important thing now was to take care of his little wife.

Aru had been silent since she returned from the funeral that day. Sometimes Ling Yuanhang would find that she was in a silent daze, sitting there for half a day and half a day without moving. Sometimes she stretches out her hand to look at her little hand.

Ling Yuanhang wanted to ask her what she was thinking several times, but every time he wanted to ask, he always saw her frowning. So he didn't dare to ask again, lest he draw out his wife's sadness. Ling Yuanhang had no choice, so he went to find the old doctor Sun who treated Yaru.

Dr. Sun is already more than ten years old, and he has seen all kinds of patients. He knew about Yaru's situation, so he said to Ling Yuanhang: "General Ling, Mrs. Ling is depressed. Some women will have this situation if they are stimulated before and after giving birth, and this should be because of the tragedy of the battle that day, plus seeing so many of her subordinates die in battle. She probably couldn't handle the pressure. You should get her out of the shadows of that war as soon as possible. Otherwise, she will aggravate her condition, and it will be difficult to treat. ”

Ling Yuanhang asked, "What will happen to that serious situation?"

Dr. Sun sighed and said, "In severe cases, there will be suicidal thoughts, or mental delusions, which are so-called mental problems. You'd better let her vent her frustration. When she is over the confinement period, try to find a place for her to shout out or cry. Doctor Sun suddenly remembered something, and he said: "I remember, Madame knows martial arts, you can find someone to accompany her to practice." Anyway, no matter what method is used. Go back and think about it yourself. Heart disease is not a cure that can be cured by medicine. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been in such a situation. ”

Ling Yuanhang thanked Dr. Sun and returned home, seeing Yaru sitting there as usual looking out the window, her little face getting smaller and smaller. Xinghong and Peach Red are also sad and at a loss.

Ling Yuanhang let the two girls out, he walked up to Yaru gently, gently took her in his arms, and said softly, "Ru'er, tell me if it's okay to talk." ”

Aru looked back at him, speechless.

Ling Yuanhang was not discouraged, he continued: "Ru'er, I'm worried about you now. If you have something to say, you can feel better when you say it. ”

Aru stared at him for a full minute, and then she asked, "Is there something you're hiding from me?"

Ling Yuanhang's heart suddenly steady, he said to himself, and then he smiled at Yaru: "How can I hide something from you? I am not by your side every day, you can see everything." Even if you have something, you smart girl can't hide it. ”

Aru murmured, "He came to my dream again, and this time the brothers also came to my dream, and they surrounded him farther and farther away from me. ”

Ling Yuanhang felt sad in his heart, he knew that Yaru was talking about the child who had no chance. Aru had told him more than once that she always dreamed of the child coming to hers. Ling Yuanhang sometimes wants to burst out: Ru'er, that's our child, that's why he always comes to your dreams to find you. But he didn't dare to say it, he was afraid that Ru'er would collapse even more.

Yaru suddenly asked again: "Did the doctor say that I can go out tomorrow?"

Ling Yuanhang said, "Yes, you can go out tomorrow." You're basically cured, so I'll take you out to see the snow tomorrow. It was snowing heavily outside the day before yesterday. ”

Aru's eyes looked at him meaninglessly: "I have a feeling that when I was unconscious, I felt as if I had lost something very important. But I thought about it and thought about it, but I didn't know what I had lost, but the feeling was strong. ”

Ling Yuanhang smiled and said, "Yaru, you are sick this time, why are you so sentimental." Nothing. What you think the feeling should be those brothers and sisters who died. I know you're a loving person, and you've never seen them as inferior. I know you're sad, but you can't be resurrected from death. Since they have died for you, you should live well and live well. And let them not give their lives in vain. ”

At the mention of those who died, Aru's tears fell again. She said bitterly: "They all died for me alone, if I used my life to save these ninety-one lives, I would be willing to change them." ”

Ling Yuanhang didn't speak, but tightly hugged this thin little body in his arms. His wife was a kind person, and she would not think that those people should die to protect her just because they were just guards in the house. She just thought it was alive, and those people were her family and siblings.

Ling Yuanhang didn't know that after he and Yaru got married, some of Yaru's words and practices were imperceptibly affecting him, an authentic ancient person. Gradually, he felt that all of Aru's feelings and practices were reasonable.

In fact, what Ling Yuanhang didn't know was that Yaru had already guessed another thing, that is, she was likely to lose a child she was conceiving. Her tiredness that day was not only due to tiredness, but also because of her sudden abdominal pain, and then a stream of heat gushed out from below. She thought her aunt, who had been delayed for two days, was coming. But in the past month, Mayor Guo's wife has often come, and every time she comes, she has instructed her not to go out to blow the wind or go out. And she found that she drank millet porridge and poached eggs every day, of course, the fish and meat were never broken, she always heard the girl say, who sent an old hen today, who sent a fish, some eggs, anyway, this period of time almost every day someone sent something. The people of Guojiazhen showed great love for her.

Aru is not an ancient boudoir lady who doesn't know anything, she is a soul from the twenty-first century. There are many descriptions of women's pregnancy and childbirth in the TV series and novels she watches. She felt that the meal she ate seemed to be the confinement meal mentioned in the book. Don't let her go out, let her go out after a month, this seems to be the rule of confinement. The child she dreamed of also made her conclude in her heart that it was the child she had lost. Aru is a reborn person, which has led her to move from pure atheism to the side of theism, and her own experience has led her to believe in the existence of spirits in the world. In addition, her menstrual affairs have always been very punctual, but this time she was several days late, but she herself did not show any signs of pregnancy. This time, when she went to the border, she did not follow the married woman by her side, so these girls who served her personally did not understand, thus ignoring the fact that she might be pregnant. Now she remembered that her aunt, who suddenly came to her and what she thought was late, should be the unlucky child who came into her body and made her lose it.

So after she was mourning the loss of so many of her siblings, she added the pain of losing her child. She repeatedly tested Ling Yuanhang and the girls around her, but they all avoided talking about children. She also knew that they didn't want her to know the truth, because they didn't want her to suffer the pain of losing their son, so she had to pretend to be confused to fulfill their good intentions. But the more this happened, the more depressed and uncomfortable her heart became, she wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry. She keeps things in her heart, doesn't want to talk to anyone, and thinks about things in her own world every day.

The next day, Aru was able to go out. The first thing she did was to pay her respects to the dead guards. Ling Yuanhang accompanied her, followed by Guan Long, Guan Hu and the guards of the County Prince's Mansion.

The ninety-one people were buried on a higher slope, not far from Guojia Town, not far from Guojia Town's cemetery. Names were erected in front of the graves of ninety-one people, and Ling Yuanhang had them all carved tablets. Eighty-one brothers are buried on the left, and ten sisters are buried on the right. There are also ashes of paper money that have been burned not long ago.

Ling Yuanhang inserted incense, then lit it, and the girl and the guard poured ninety-one bowls of wine and sprinkled them in front of their graves. The couple personally burned paper money for them. When the prayer was over, Aru said, "Let them go down, I want to sit here and talk to them." ”

Ling Yuanhang waved his hand to Ling Yi and asked him to bring the people back to Guojia Town first, and he could accompany Yaru here. Guan Long, Guan Hu and Xinghong also retreated. But none of them left, they just stood there and waited.

Yaru sat there, her eyes staring vacantly at these snow-buried graves, and muttering, "I didn't know that such a thing would happen, I wanted to know that Duoyan would come, and I wouldn't stay here again." If I had taken you back to the capital, you wouldn't have died here to protect me. It's all my fault, it's my fault. The more she spoke, the more tears flowed.

Ling Yuanhang's eyes were moist when he heard it, he came over and patted Yaru on the shoulder, wanting to persuade him, and remembered Dr. Sun's words, it was best to let Yaru cry, so he silently accompanied him beside him, listening to her remorseful whispers and crying. Suddenly, he heard Aru's voice getting louder and louder, like a river bursting its banks, and the raging tears fell in large drops. Yaru finally vented her pent-up emotions for a month in this whisper.

Yaru's outburst cry spread far away, and Ling Yi and the others heard it, and tears flowed out again. Those are ninety-one living beings, and they are brothers and sisters who get along day and night. In the past month, in addition to practicing martial arts desperately in the courtyard, they quietly recalled their voices and smiles. They also knew about the situation of their princess this month, and they were also anxious. Now that the princess has finally cried, it's good to cry. The princess cared so much about their subordinates, and they were also very moved. They had never heard of the master being so sad about the death of his guard. In the future, they will not hesitate to go to the soup for such a master.

Ever since Aru wept so much at the grave, her spirits had gradually improved. She no longer looked at a place in a silent daze, but her words were still few. Ling Yuanhang knew that he still had to give Yaru some more time. So he said to Aru, "Ru'er, come with me back to Feicheng and stay there for a while." My father has written to the emperor, asking me to personally send you back to Beijing. When the emperor received a letter, we set off. ”

Yaru nodded and said, "It's okay, but there are two people to guard here, one is to guard the house, and the other is to go to the grave of these people." ”

Ling Yuanhang said, "Okay, I'll arrange it." With that, he went out and arranged things.
