Chapter Two Hundred and Seven: Just at Hand
In the previous life, there was a great drought in the north, and the four major families in Jiangling only came to the Jiang family, which also became a reason for Nangong Sheng's anti-witch, which can be regarded as planting a bomb for the Wu family.
That's why she had to go to the Northland in person no matter what.
Even if he can't change Nangong Sheng's opinion, he can still make a contribution in the north, and when Nangong Sheng proposed to oppose witchcraft again, the government and the opposition, and even the whole country, will never let it go.
This was her idea, but Zeng remembered why she thought the same as her.
"It's me who underestimates you, but Shi Yue has never been a mistaken person for the sake of beauty, since he has mentioned it repeatedly, I have also seriously thought about it, and what I have said is naturally to count, if Miss Xue can get the position of the witch master, I don't mind giving you a chance." This is a reward for your success in praying for rain. ”
Xue Ling thanked, "Okay, thank you Your Highness Eldest Sun." ”
Nangong Sheng didn't seem surprised by Xue Ling's agreement.
Xue Ling had already bandaged him, "Pay more attention these two days and don't touch the water." ”
"Miss Xue and the technique seem to be a little different, this is also the Xue family's witchcraft?"
Xue Ling shook her head, "This is taught by my mother, and it is mostly used to deal with external injuries." ”
Nangong Sheng didn't say much, "Thank you today." ”
Jiang Xu drove the carriage and returned along the way he came.
When I came back from the mountain road where the canal was repaired, it was already evening.
She went to see Zeng Yi first.
At this time, Zeng Yi's heat subsided a little, and the whole person was much more energetic, leaning against the window and reading.
Hearing Xue Ling coming, he put down the book, "Today has been smooth." ”
"Hmm."
His gaze fell on the hem of Xue Ling's skirt, and the dust-stained clothes on it changed color.
"Just come to me? I thought you'd go back and get some rest. ”
"It's the same when I go back to rest. How are you doing today? ”
"Much better."
Xue Ling had already neatly stepped forward to check Zeng Yi's pulse.
"Your Highness," he asked hesitantly, "have you been embarrassed?" ”
Xue Ling raised his head and glanced at him, "Naturally not." ”
Zeng Yi didn't say much, just looked at her.
Xue Ling stretched out her hand to probe Zeng Yi's forehead, there was still some temperature on her forehead, but it had dropped a lot, she put her mind at ease, "It's still a little uncomfortable, you still have to continue to take the decoction, I'll change the medicine for you." ”
Zeng Yi looked at her, "Are you so patient and gentle with every patient?" ”
Xue Ling looked at him puzzled, not just why he asked.
Zeng Yi smiled, "It's good to be your patient." ”
"Or don't,"
When Xue Ling was preparing the plaster, Chang Shan said cautiously, "Tomorrow is the tenth day of the third month, which is the sacrifice day of my wife, if Miss Xue has time, can you accompany my son-in-law on a trip." ”
When Xue Ling heard this, her heart finally softened uncontrollably, and when she said it, it became another sentence, "You have other important things to do tomorrow,"
Chang Shan sighed, "Yes, tomorrow, the Zeng family will be exiled, and I will go to see him off." I've already found a driver of the carriage, and I can help my son get on and off the carriage, but my son's injuries have not healed, and the place where my wife is buried is a little far away,,"
Zeng Yi heard the two of them talking, and couldn't help but interrupt, "Changshan, go and prepare." ”
Once again, there were only two people left in the room, Zeng Yi took the initiative to say, "Changshan has just been a little difficult for a strong man, you don't have to take it to heart, it's not far, I don't need you to go this way, and I also know some medical skills." ”
Xue Ling was a little hesitant, but at this time, she finally made up her mind and said, "Tomorrow, I can accompany you." ”
"I can, but Mrs. Zeng definitely wants to see you, Mr. Zeng, it's better like this, I have nothing to do tomorrow, I'll go with you." I can't help much, but I can take care of your injuries. ”
Zeng recalled that some historical materials have not been reached, "How embarrassing is this." ”
"So, take your medicine well, and if you don't have a fever tomorrow, I'll go with you." How is it? ”
"Thank you."
Zeng Yi was young in the end, he took medicine and slept for a while, and sure enough, he no longer had a fever.
It's just that the right leg is still injured in the end, and it will hurt even if you exert a little force.
The carriage stopped at the door.
Xue Ling sat in a carriage with him.
The drive is a bit far.
The road was very gentle at first, but gradually it became a little rough.
Xue Ling sat in the car, only to feel that the outside of the carriage was becoming more and more secluded, and when the curtain was lifted, he only felt that the road had become narrow, and it could only be used for one carriage to walk.
If you have another car, I'm afraid you won't be able to go.
When a woman from a large family dies, she is often buried in the ancestral grave of her husband's family.
Mrs. Zeng has never abandoned her as a wife, and she is buried in such a remote place, Xue Ling seems to be able to feel the powerlessness of being a child.
Xue Ling didn't ask much.
Instead, he silently lowered the curtain.
He looked at her, she was indeed completely different from other girls, this indifference like water made his heart move.
Zeng Yi peeled off the curtain and pointed halfway up the mountain, "My mother is buried over there." ”
Xue Ling looked over, there was no decent cemetery, where was an ordinary hillside.
"Do you know what it's called? Here are ten thousand burial posts. ”
He smiled coldly, "This is the place where the plague is kept, almost all the dead are buried here, and my mother is the same, there is no grave, there is no cemetery, the corpses are pushed together, and they are burned clean." ”
When he mentioned the past, he couldn't help but dim a little, and his eyes dimmed a little.
"The Xue family set up a mound for my mother, but every year on the festival day, I still come here to incense my mother. After all, this is where my mother returned to her roots. ”
The carriage stopped, and the slope was already overgrown with green space, and there was no longer half a trace of the year, but many things had already been engraved in my mind and lingered.
"Mrs. Xue must hope to live a safe and happy life."
"Well, I've rarely come back over the years, but every time I come back, I come here to have a look. ,”
Xue Ling wanted to echo a few words, but finally didn't speak.
Xue Ling glanced at it and got out of the car.
It was very luxuriant, Xue Ling took a small bench and put it away, and then helped Zeng Yi to sit down.
Zeng Yi looked at the branches and leaves all over the mountain, "This time I came, I don't know when the next time I came." Thank you for coming with me. ”
Xue Ling's heart was a little touched, she saw a lot of gentleness in Zeng Yi's eyes, "No need to say thank you." ”
Zeng Yi smiled warmly, "Well, speaking of which, I haven't been here a few times in the past ten years, and the last time I came,"
He seemed to remember something again.
There was no word for a long time.
Xue Ling squatted down and burned the paper money for him.
Zeng Yi looked at her, almost close at hand, such a scene was like a dream.
