Chapter 222: The Daughter of a Good Man (30)

The town, the place of governance.

The prison was just a small courtyard with five rooms, the middle one was an office, the one on the right was the one for prisoners, and the one on the left was the kitchen.

The rest was a place for the servants to rest.

The second room on the left.

Mei Zhixiong was talking to Zhang Xiaodong and Yan Youli.

They had just changed shifts with another group of people, sitting and chatting.

Zhang Xiaodong took a sip of tea and wiped his sweat, "The weather has been cooler recently, but it's still a little hot." ”

It's already after the autumn harvest, so the sun isn't as hot as it used to be.

Yan Youli threw him a handkerchief, "Your clothes are dirty like that, and you wipe them with your clothes, and even wipe them black." Now, use it! You'd better find a woman, what are you sloppy about? ”

"Women are in charge, wouldn't it be better for me to be free alone?" Zhang Xiaodong pursed his lips.

Mei Zhixiong took the knife and wiped it slowly, "Although I am comfortable alone, I am still lonely in the end." You're not young anymore, how can you do without a woman and a baby? ”

When he said this, he thought of his own lady, and he unconsciously had a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at the blade.

Zhang Xiaodong shuddered for a moment, "Huh~ The head thinks of his sister-in-law again, right?" ”

Mei Zhixiong came back to his senses and patted him with a smile. "You'll know it when you have a mother-in-law."

Zhang Xiaodong sneered, with disdain on his face.

But in fact, he also wants to find a woman to start a family in his heart.

But first, I didn't meet the one I liked, and second, I was afraid of meeting a tigress.

"Is Mei Guan here?"

A delicate voice rang out.

"Boss, I'm looking for you." Zhang Xiaodong pouted.

"Here we are." Mei Zhixiong put the handkerchief in his handkerchief and put the knife back into its sheath.

————

"Lady!" Mei Zhixiong ran out in a hurry.

He knew from the mouth of the messenger that the lady of the Lu family had gone to make trouble at home, and his own lady was so angry that her stomach was uncomfortable, and her head was suddenly dizzy.

After asking Yan Youli to help ask for leave, he hurriedly ran back.

His speed was very fast, so when he arrived, it happened to be Dr. Yang's diagnosis and treatment.

"Be quiet! Your lady is fine, just drink a few pills. A woman next door reminded.

Mei Zhixiong saw a group of people surrounding here, and he didn't know why.

When he heard her speak, he thanked her.

"Thank you, auntie."

"You don't just want to thank me, you have to thank them for the rest. You don't know how ruthless the Lu Wangs are! actually set fire to the murder, if we hadn't found out in time and rushed in, I was afraid that Mei Niangzi would be burned inside. ”

"Phew! Don't say bad things! Mei Niangzi is fine! One person listened to her words and immediately spoke to stop her.

"Huh? Look at my mouth! The woman patted her mouth embarrassedly, "Don't blame Meiguan, I'm not very good at talking." ”

Mei Zhixiong looked at the people in the room and resisted the urge to rush in.

He shook his head at the woman, looking grateful, "Where is the aunt, thank you for saving my lady this time!" ”

As he spoke, he bowed to the end.

Where had the woman seen such a scene, and hurriedly waved her hand.

"Out of the way, out of the way."

"We just helped, we didn't do anything."

"Mei Guanren usually helps us a lot, this is what we should do."

"Yes, yes, Mei Guanren don't be polite, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, we should help each other."

"As long as you don't blame us for smashing your lock and wetting your firewood." Someone joked.

A crowd laughed.

Mei Zhixiong was grateful, and bowed deeply.

He had already noticed the extinguished pyre in the corner, and the hay that was left with only black ashes.

He couldn't imagine what would have happened to the lady if it hadn't been for these people who came in and put out the fire?

Seeing that Dr. Yang had finished his examination, Mei Zhixiong also came back.

The group picked up their buckets and beckoned them to leave.

When they left, everyone was in a good mood.

If you do a good deed and get people's sincere gratitude, even if you don't get any actual benefits, it makes people feel happy.

Because Dr. Yang had expected it, he prepared a few fetal pills before coming.

At this time, after the diagnosis was completed, he reduced the medicinal materials a little and handed them to Qiu'er.

Qiu'er went to decoct the medicine, Mei Zhixiong followed Dr. Yang out, and asked carefully.

Doctor Yang sighed that the Mei family lady was ill-fated, and he was afraid that the child in her womb would really have one or two, so he patiently talked a lot to Mei Zhixiong.

Mei Zhixiong wrote them down one by one, sent him out, and bowed and thanked him.

Seeing Dr. Yang leave, Mei Zhixiong picked up the broken lock on the ground, closed the courtyard door, and entered the house.

Sitting on the edge of Jiang Ru's bed, he put Jiang Ru's hand in his palm and held it tightly.

Luckily, it's okay!

When Jiang Ru saw Mei Zhixiong coming back, he slowly opened his eyes and pretended to have just woken up.

She reached out and touched the bottom of her nose.

Hiss! It hurts!!

[Oh my God! Why is it pinched so hard? If you have an enmity with me, you won't break the phase. 】

Eleven comforted: [Don't worry about the host, it won't break the phase, it's not completely broken, it's just pinched and swollen, and it's expected to disappear in two or three days. 】

Jiang Nina is so tired.

"Lady, are you awake?" Mei Zhixiong saw Jiang Ru open his eyes and stood up happily.

Jiang Ru got up, he hurriedly went to help, and thoughtfully put a pillow on her back.

"Lady, there are uncomfortable places."

Jiang Ru was in a trance, and when she saw Mei Zhixiong, she seemed to have finally come back to her senses.

Her complexion changed instantly, and she grabbed Mei Zhixiong's arm tightly, "Official! It's on fire! It's on fire! Hurry up and put out the fire! Fire! ”

"Don't be afraid, the fire is gone." Mei Zhixiong saw that her face was pale, her whole body trembled, and her heart ached.

Jiang Ru's nails dug into his flesh, and he didn't withdraw his hand, but Eleven carefully patted her back and comforted her.

"Extinguished?" Jiang Ru's eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe it.

"It's extinguished, and the surrounding aunts found out, so they ran in to help extinguish it."

"But the door is locked." Jiang Rune said, "I opened it several times, but I didn't open it." ”

When Mei Zhixiong heard this, his heart immediately ached so much that he couldn't breathe.

Qiu'er, who rushed over when she heard the voice, also heard her words.

In an instant, Qiu'er's body shook.

She locked the door, and she knew it best.

She leaned against the door frame, her face full of fear.

She could imagine that after her mother found out that it was on fire, she ran out and wanted to escape, but the door could not be opened.

My mother has been pulling it inside, but she can't pull it open.

The door is locked.

She had never been so grateful for the neighbors who lived around her.

They were the ones who saved my mother.

Although they are sometimes annoying, they run over to put out the fire as soon as it catches fire.

Qiu'er's mood fluctuated, so she didn't go in, but turned her head and continued to boil fetal pills.

She thought as she boiled the medicine.

This is what my mother said.

Although it was just a gesture for the neighbors and aunts, it was a great kindness to me and my father.
