Chapter 44: Wake up
"Geng Cheng and his wife were sentenced to compensate all the money to Peach Blossom, and they were beaten with thirty boards to follow suit, and now the two of them have really become poor eggs, and that Wang Ergou is miserable, not to mention that he didn't get anything and suffered fifty boards, and when he was carried out, he didn't have much breath, and he estimated that he wouldn't live long!"
As soon as she talked about the ending of this Wang Ergou, Aunt Wang felt very relieved, and even said that he was completely to blame.
And Lin Taohua, who has been wronged and bullied, is bitter and happy at the moment, how painful it was before, how happy it is now, and took nearly one hundred taels of compensation silver from Geng Cheng and his wife.
Three days later, she personally came to her home to thank Chu Xinyun, and brought a lot of thank-you gifts such as vegetables and fruits.
"Sister Chu, if you hadn't helped me this time, I'm afraid I would have to carry such a reputation for the rest of my life, this is a little bit of my heart, please don't dislike it!"
As he spoke, he took out ten taels of silver and stuffed it into Chu Xinyun's hand, and the latter returned it without thinking about it, and said with a smile: "I will accept this vegetable and fruit, but I can't accept this silver, you are alone now, and you have to plan well in the future." ”
Lin Taohua nodded, touching her belly that had not yet fluctuated, and her eyes softened: "I decided to give birth to this child, and I will guard my mother and live a good life with him in the future." ”
After experiencing this incident, the villagers of Xiaoli Village always felt a little lower in front of Lin Taohua, especially after she offered to be willing to be widowed for Geng Daniu, the villagers' faces were even more ashamed.
She also took advantage of this opportunity to pick up the old mother who stayed in Chujia Village, and the villagers even took the initiative to help with the placement.
Chu Xinyun looked at the slowly setting sunset in the west, smiled, and said in his heart: The days will always get better and better.
"Xiao Yun, it's time to eat!"
"It's coming!"
There was fish for dinner today, which was sent by the peach blossom people, and Chu Xinyun came here to eat fish only a handful of times, and when he saw the big grass carp swimming in the wooden barrel, his mouth couldn't help but drool.
This grass carp weighs almost three pounds, and it is perfect for making grilled fish, and the slightly fried fish meat is poured with a slightly spicy sauce, and finally simmered slightly with charcoal fire to taste, the taste is very suitable!
With the addition of various vegetables, the two of them were very satisfied with rice.
This can be the little three who come to the ticket to report the situation, although they are usually used to eating and sleeping, but who doesn't want to eat well?
At the same time, he also realized one of the reasons why the boss didn't want to leave here.....
After Chu Xinyun rested, Xiao Shu summoned him down from the tree.
A few days ago, he asked Xiao San to secretly stare at Dexing Building, and today he took the initiative to come and seem to have found something.
"Boss!" Xiao San jumped down from the tree with a light movement, and his eyes couldn't stop glancing at the kitchen, he saw it just now, there was still a lot of fish left.......
Xiao Shu didn't understand what he meant, and asked, "But what did you find?"
Xiao San straightened his face and said, "I have been lurking near Dexing Building for the past few days according to your instructions, and just last night I robbed a letter that was sent to the capital, which is related to Miss Chu. ”
After speaking, he took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Xiao Shu: "You look at it." ”
Xiao Shu also took the letter unceremoniously, opened it at a glance and browsed through the ten lines, and after seeing the three words Chu Xinyun, his pupils shrank slightly.
Xiao San whispered: "Boss, this shopkeeper Chen turned out to be King Jing's person, and it seems that he is still preparing to attack Miss Chu, do you see if I am ....." He made a gesture to extinguish his mouth.
Xiao Shu put down the letter and his face was gloomy and terrifying: "Hold your troops for the time being, he shouldn't know that this letter was robbed by us, continue to send people to squat near Dexing Tower, and report to me immediately if there is any situation, and strengthen the number of secret guards around Xiao Yun, since he wants to send someone, then I have nothing to be afraid of!"
Xiao Yun is his biggest rebel, and he will kill all those who want to hurt her mercilessly!
At this moment, the shopkeeper Chen was still drinking like a small wine, he didn't know at the moment that the target he wanted to arrest already knew his plan, and he was still secretly satisfied that his plan was seamless.
During this time, he has been coracting with King Jing, and reported all the things about Chu Xinyun, and King Jing immediately discovered the preciousness of the sugar recipe, and immediately ordered him to observe it carefully.
And what happened after that made King Jing in Kyoto very interested, Chen Shopkeeper wanted to kill him and seize Fangzi, but King Jing's intention was to let him arrest people and send them to the capital on a later date.
Shopkeeper Chen naturally understood what his master meant, but he had come into contact with Chu Xinyun and knew that this woman's temperament was soft rather than hard, if she would rather die than obey, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the prince at that time?
In the past few days, he has recruited a group of killers from other state capitals to come, and he has made some assertions between his words, saying that if he can be caught, he will live the best, but if that person desperately resists, there is no problem if he is not alive.
This time the situation was very serious, Xiao San conveyed the meaning of Xiao Kill after going back, and everyone who was not motivated heard that it was related to King Jing, so they immediately set off without saying a word, and said that they must protect Miss Chu well.
It would be better if I could get a little information about King Jing by the way......
In this way, of the seven secret guards who came to Qingshui Town, three stayed near Dexing Building to investigate the news, and the other four went to Chujia Village to lurk beside Chu Xinyun and prepare to face the killers who came to attack at any time.
As the party concerned, Chu Xinyun had no mercy at all, ate and drank every day, went to the field to observe the growth of peppers and sweet potatoes, and came back to make some food for Xiao Shu, and lived a peaceful and moist life.
It's that she wonders if she's been a little tired lately, otherwise how could she always hear the sound of swallowing saliva inexplicably every time she cooks?
That night, the wind was gusting outside, Chu Xinyun hurriedly beckoned Xiao Shu to move all the things that were dried outside, the weather in this summer is like this, the day is fine, and the night may bring you a pound of rain.
Sure enough, it started to rain outside as soon as the things were tidied up, and Xiao Shu stood at the door and looked up at the dense rain curtain, his face was extremely solemn.
He had a gut feeling that tonight would not be a quiet night.
Sure enough, when approaching Zishi, the five figures broke through the dripping rain curtain and rushed straight into the courtyard!
"Wow.."
Hearing the noisy sound of rain in Ruo's ears, Chu Xinyun, who was sleeping in a daze, turned around and continued to sleep.
And at this moment, in the courtyard, three figures fell into the rain curtain, and the dazzling blood red flowed down the rain.
Xiao Shu sat in the dark room, and after a long time, he heard the ticket report from the junior: "Boss, five came, and two were lost"
"Is there a living mouth?"
"Nope."
"Clean up."
"Yes!"
In the days that followed, such attacks continued twice, until what they were doing secretly that night was seen by Chu Xinyun, who got up to drink water!
"You... You ......" Chu Xinyun stared blankly at the two groups of people fighting each other in her yard, and before she could react, a figure rushed towards her!
"Xiao Yun!!" Xiao Kill hurriedly blocked her in front of her and learned to hit the soft sword that flew into the stab, but he didn't expect this person to throw a ball of powder in his face the next moment, Xiao Kill was caught off guard and sucked in several mouthfuls.
"Ahem!" Xiao Kill Ge Ran felt his head dizzy, and looked at Chu Xinyun's figure turned into two.
"Xiao kill? What happened to you? Xiao kill?" Chu Xinyun hurriedly helped him up, and the secret guards who were fighting with the others were also panicked and stabbed several times because the boss was raided, and the originally evenly matched scene instantly had no advantage!
"Don't fight, take someone and leave immediately!"
With the order issued by the other party's killer leader, after the killer hidden in the shadows secretly lingered, Chu Xinyun couldn't react and was covered by a handkerchief, and fainted in the next second.
The killers immediately picked it up, and a few dodges disappeared from view.
"Xiao Yun! cough cough..."Xiao Shu wanted to catch up, but his body was weak and he couldn't use his strength at all, so he could only watch them rob people, and his heart was extremely resentful!"
When Chu Xinyun came first, she found herself in a completely closed room, and after a few seconds of trance, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have been kidnapped again?
She hurriedly got up to check, and found that there was nothing on the four stone walls except for some straw piled on the ground and an oil lamp.
"Hmm...."Just when she was at a loss, she suddenly heard a faint moan in her ears.
She walked slowly in search of the voice, and saw a petite figure in the messy pile of straw.
Is there anyone else here?
Chu Xinyun cautiously leaned over, and when he opened the straw, he found that it was a familiar face!
This child seems to be the boy he saved with cardiac resuscitation at the entrance of the hospital three months ago?
How did he end up here? Chu Xinyun was puzzled for a while.
Xiao San knew that something was wrong when he received the signal, and immediately rushed to Chujia Village, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Xiao Shu who fell to the ground, and when he saw his blue lips, he knew that he must have been poisoned, and then took out the antidote pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
and used his luck to force out the poisonous cord in his body, and Xiao Kill woke up after half a pillar of incense.
The first thing he did when he woke up was to ask, "Where's Xiao Yun?"
Xiao San looked serious and apologized: "It was we who underestimated the strength of the killer that caused Miss Chu to ......"
Xiao Shu rubbed his swollen and aching temples, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Take my token, you can arrange everything, I will see Xiao Yun tomorrow morning!"
Seeing Xiao Shu's cold expression, Xiao San knew that this matter was difficult today.
He took the identity token, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what is this King Jing doing is not good, he has to kidnap Miss Chu, is this reverse scale something that ordinary people can move? Don't you want to weigh your own identity with your hands?
He was very worried about the future situation of Shopkeeper Chen for a while, after all, in his impression, the boss was never a benevolent person.
After receiving the task, Xiao San took people to Dexing Building, although their number was not enough at the moment, but with this token, let alone Chen's shopkeeper, even if King Jing came, he had to obediently open the door and let them go in to search.
Chen's full name is Chen Lide, and he has been with King Jing for many years, and he was sent to such a far place from the capital this time purely because he was demoted by King Jing because he made a mistake in doing something.
That's why he wanted to see that he could return to King Jing as soon as possible with Chu Xinyun's matter, after all, if he wanted a place, he couldn't do it in such a remote place.
Yunlai County, Qingshui Town, is too far away from the capital, and the news that the capital can know for the first time, he has to be half a month late to know, it is really inconvenient for him to work for King Jing!
The previous failures made him very angry, but fortunately, this time they finally lived up to expectations and got people over, Chen Lide went to see her when Chu Xinyun was not awake before, and when he saw this familiar face, his heart finally fell.
But at this moment, he didn't know what he was about to face, and he was still arranging the carriage that would leave tomorrow, preparing to send people to the capital immediately.
Chu Xinyun found the little boy he had treated some time ago in the secret room, and at this moment his face was flushed and he was muttering"
mother, mother, mother, mother", she immediately noticed that something was wrong with him, and hurriedly picked up the straw and hugged the person out.
