Chapter 4: The Savior

He shook his head at me, his face heavy.

He...... Aren't you blaming me?

That's not right, if I hadn't done it, oh no, it was my sword that did it, and I would have died now.

I told my husband what had happened, and when he saw that my face was finally not so terrible, I breathed a sigh of relief.

He took some clothes to wipe the blood on the ground, and quietly took a lot of water, wiped it over and over again, and when he saw that the room was restored, he said, "I'll bury her." ”

"Oh, I'll go too."

"That's inevitable, you won't lie, what if you miss it."

My husband's voice was still the same as usual, if it weren't for his solemn face, I really thought it was nothing, and after seeing it like this, I might have caused trouble.

No, it was the sword, but it helped me, and if it hadn't been for it, I would have died.

Thinking of this, I walked to the sword, picked it up, and prepared to put it back into its scabbard, but I don't know if it was an illusion, I vaguely saw that the tip of the sword was shining.

It's really my talisman, and I have to take it with me.

Seeing that I had the sword at my waist, my husband only glanced at me and said no more.

Wrapping Zhou Guilan in a ball, he pulled me out of the room.

"Brother, have you seen my mother?"

I met Qifeng, who was extremely flustered, and he suddenly found that my husband was startled, and his hand holding me seemed to be a little stiff.

"I didn't ...... No. ”

The husband was a little stumbling when he spoke, and he seemed to realize his gaffe: "You go to the neighbor's house and ask." ”

"My mother has never been like this......"

There was already a faint choked sound in Qifeng's words.

My husband was anxious, and he didn't comfort Qifeng, but pulled me out hurriedly.

I heard Qifeng muttering behind mean, "Why are these two people so weird today." ”

My husband held my hand tightly, walked towards the unknown place for a long time, and looked around vigilantly, only then did he let go, and he rarely let me help.

He whispered, "Let's hurry up and make a sound." ”

"Why are we like this?"

I am really dissatisfied with his actions, first, Zhou Guilan wants to kill me, I am just defending, even if I say this, I am not wrong; The second is that the person who this sword helped me kill, even if I want to find the murderer, it has nothing to do with me.

"Do you think people will believe what you say about sword killing?" The husband said in a low voice, "This is ridiculous. ”

"Do you believe it?" I asked casually.

He said categorically: "I believe it! ”

When it was all done, my husband took me on this endless dark path, and he told me not to tell anyone about it, and let it rot in my stomach.

I let out my usual "oh", and with the torch in my hand, he saw the saber at my waist and whispered, "Well, let's throw it away, listen to you, this sword is a little strange." ”

"What's weird?" I was busy protecting it, "If it weren't for it, you wouldn't be able to find me now!" ”

He suddenly smiled: "Yes, it's your savior." ”

When we were about to get home, we heard the voices of He Qing and Qifeng from a distance, they shouted Zhou Guilan at the top of their voices, but how could there be news?

As the sound continued to sound, families began to come out, and it didn't take long for the front of the house to be much more lively.

After all, Zhou Guilan is a well-known tigress with too many enemies, and I listened to their whispering voices and deduced that most of these people came to see the excitement.

He Qing and Qifeng knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the villagers, begging them to help find Zhou Guilan.

Seeing that the two of them were so pitiful, the people around them also agreed.

"Let's look for it, too."

My husband took my hand and said.

"Why?" I wondered.

"If we don't look for it, we won't be able to sleep this time, and it will arouse suspicion." He lowered his voice.

Unexpectedly, it was impossible for me and my husband to find it overnight, but the cat lay all night looking at the stars behind the straw pile in the field.

I wanted to sleep, but my husband didn't seem to be sleepy at all, he didn't seem to notice my sleepiness, but told me a lot of things, and I responded in a daze.

But there is a sentence that I remember very well, because his reaction was a little big.

He asked, "Qiu'er, if I die, will you be so indifferent?" ”

"I don't know." I replied truthfully.

He suddenly got up and pressed against me, his eyes staring at mine, as if trying to see through something.

Xu was overwhelmed by him, and I even felt that the atmosphere was depressing.

In order to relieve myself, I narrowed my eyes and smiled at him, who seemed a little disappointed and hugged me tightly: "Qiu'er, if it weren't for you, I would have died." ”

"Why?" I asked, puzzled.

He suddenly laughed: "It's good that you're like this, at least you won't be sad." ”

"Qiu'er, you probably don't have a heart......"

After saying this, he stopped speaking.

When it was finally over, I looked at the already bright sky, closed my eyes and began to fall asleep.

When I woke up, I was already lying on the kang at home, and it was burning warm, and it was very comfortable.

While he was working as a husband on the side, he asked, "Are you hungry?" ”

Actually, I'm not hungry, but I haven't eaten anything since I woke up yesterday, so I still nodded.

The husband said guiltily: "I forgot yesterday. ”

He brought out the food from this stove, and there were four dishes for the first time, as well as chicken and fish, and he took out a few pancakes and added two bowls of rice porridge.

He wasn't very hungry, but instead he sketched out my gluttony, and took a deep breath at the food: "It seems good." ”

"Taste it, I did!"

My husband handed me a fish with chopsticks and fed it to my mouth, and as soon as the fish entered my mouth, it was really tender and delicious, and I couldn't help but admire.

He grinned.

"Is yesterday's business over?" As I ate, I asked about the day.

After all, yesterday's husband looked so abnormal, I still want to know, what to do next.

"It's over."

After the husband said that, he changed the topic.

Sure enough, as the husband said, all this is over.

Without Zhou Guilan's home, it is really a lot cleaner, and many people in the neighborhood have come to He's house to walk around.

However, some things have changed, the first is that my husband has taken me with me wherever I go from then on; The second is that the housework falls on him; The third is my unlucky father-in-law, who has been rumored to be a Ke Niangzi in the village, and I am afraid that it is hopeless for him to continue the string.

Seeing that my husband was busy, I couldn't bear it, and wanted to help him share it, but he still refused, but since then, we haven't separated from each other, after all, as soon as Guilan died this week, he also felt that no one was embarrassed for me, and there was always someone to take care of this family.

This spring goes to winter, and the year passes very quickly, and the small days are also harmonious and beautiful.

I've also learned a lot of human skills, and sometimes I can guess people's intentions, which makes me secretly happy.

And Qifeng worked hard, he was admitted to Xiucai, and he was selected to be promoted, and he was able to become an official, and his husband was extremely happy, he has paid a lot for his family over the years.

The strange thing is that my husband's temples are already a little gray, and from time to time he asks me to help him pull them off, but I don't......

Not only that, but he touched my stomach from time to time.

Seeing his series of strange actions, I was a little amused: "What are you doing? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, the two of you are fine."

Listening to him say these words, I understand that he probably wants to have a child, after all, in the blink of an eye, many people who are so old with him, dolls can play soy sauce, and Qifeng is about to leave home and go to work, and the family will be a lot more deserted.

"It can't be that you can't give birth!"

I said deliberately.

"You!"

My husband was choked and speechless, but he threw me down with a wicked laugh......

When Qifeng was about to leave, we learned that he invited himself to be an official in the county.

As soon as I heard this, I knew that my father-in-law was angry and had provided him with education for all these years, in order to let him get ahead and leave this small place, but he invited himself here, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

Sure enough, as soon as Qifeng's voice fell, his father-in-law was already angry and hammered his chest, scolding: "It's against you!" ”

At this time, Qifeng is no longer the young boy he was back then, now he is more steady, he is proud of the spring breeze, and raised a glass to me and my husband: "Thank you eldest brother, thank you sister-in-law for taking care of me all these years, Qifeng did it first as a respect!" ”

As he spoke, he raised his head and drank the wine, then got up and said, "It's inconvenient to drink more on business, and there will be a period later!" ”

I saw his resolute back, and I always felt that he had a lot of words to say.

The father-in-law scolded Qifeng's back angrily on the side: "What a white-eyed wolf! ”

After Qifeng left, he didn't contact us again, and I originally wanted to follow him to the county to take a look, but now I look at it, I still don't want to stick my face to other people's cold butts, so I pressed this matter in my heart.

In the end, there is an official in the village, and the neighbors all come to the house to say hello, so I naturally have to say hello, Jiuchen's gossip naturally can't be said, but I thank these villagers for their kindness.

About half a year after leaving Qifeng, a small official suddenly came to the house, saying that Qifeng sent him.

I hurried in and asked, "But what message do you have to deliver?" ”

The little official tried the salute to me, and then said about the matter: "He Zhi County asked me to send someone to invite the master to the county seat, saying that I can't let my father suffer here." ”

"Oh."

I got up and called my father-in-law out, and told him everything, and when he heard it, he just took him away, and was very unhappy, and sat on the chair and scolded Qifeng: "This unfilial son! Who was the one who provided him with the study and scientific examination back then! ”

The little official was just the one who passed the word, so naturally he didn't dare to say anything, and he was at a loss on the side.

"Qiu'er, pack up your things, call Jiuchen again, let's go together!"

"Daddy~"

I screamed softly, after all, if people don't want us to go, it's better not to go, and now that I think back to the past, I feel a little sorry for Qifeng, but I regret that I didn't.
