Chapter Thirty-Eight: There is a great possibility of a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs
Xiao Zhi ran to the gate of the palace to know that it was yesterday to sue the royal complaint, but he didn't know where Xi Hongdou was, and when he was spinning around in place, Xu Min, who was about to leave the palace, saw it.
"Young Master Xiao? You've come out of Zhao's prison! Xu Min stepped forward to say hello.
Xiao Zhi also participated in the palace banquet before, and Xu Min recognized Xiao Zhi.
"Are you ......?" Xiao Zhi didn't recognize the official in front of him, so he asked.
"It's in the palace below, I've seen Xiao Gongzi at the palace banquet before, and Xiao Gongzi is a noble person who forgets things a lot, and he doesn't remember being below." Xu Min said.
Xiao Zhi sighed, and then asked, "I don't know if my father-in-law knows about yesterday's lawsuit?" ”
"You know, I'm still the superintendent." When Xu Min said this, Xiao Zhi hurriedly asked, "What about that person?" What about the girl who sued the royal court yesterday? Did something happen to her? Is the injury serious? She ......" a series of questions asked Xu Min so much that she didn't know how to answer, and finally Xu Min hurriedly said: "I know, and then she was taken to Xinglin Hall." ”
As soon as Xiao Zhi heard that he was in Xinglin Hall, he ran away without saying a word, wanting to find Xi Hongdou as soon as possible.
Xu Min saw that Xiao Zhi was so nervous and Xi Hongdou, so he smiled, in the end, there is a lover who can eventually become a family.
Xinglin Hall was not far from the palace gate, Xiao Zhi ran all the way over, and almost scared the patients to death as soon as he entered the door.
"Red beans! Where are you? Xiao Zhi shouted, and then asked the guy in the store: "Is there a girl named Xi Hongdou who is treating her injuries in your Xinglin Hall?" ”
When the man heard this, he said, "Yes, yes, but who are you?" ”
"I'm her fiancé!" Xiao Zhi said: "Let me meet her!" ”
When Chunlai heard that it was Xi Hongdou's fiancé, coupled with Xiao Zhi's prisoner clothes, he also knew that this person was the person who Xi Hongdou had to step on the nail board to save if he gave up his life, so he immediately said: "In the back hall!" Then he led the way and led Xiao Zhi into the back hall.
Walking through the courtyard, Xiao Zhi finally came to a side room, pushed the door in, and saw Xi Hongdou taking medicine.
"Huh? Who is it? Fang Sisi saw that a man had come to the back hall, and hurriedly put down the medicine bowl to call someone.
"Xiao Zhi, you were released so soon?!" Xi Hongdou looked at Xiao Zhi although he looked quite sloppy, but he had left Zhao Prison anyway, and his nail board this time was not stepped on in vain.
Chunlai also came over at this time and told Fang Sisi about the situation, and Fang Sisi was speechless: "You are also fateful, there is a woman who is really willing to do such a stupid thing for you!" After speaking, he put the medicine bowl in Xiao Zhi's hand and asked Xiao Zhi to feed the medicine.
Xiao Zhi fed Xi Hongdou medicine spoonful by spoonful, looking at Xi Hongdou's hands wrapped in a thick cloth, and even more so on his feet, not to mention how much pain he felt in his heart.
"Didn't you go? Why do you have to go? Xiao Zhi said, fortunately, Xi Hongdou is still here, even if he is really lame and paralyzed in the future, he will take good care of Xi Hongdou for a lifetime, as long as people live, it is better than never seeing him in the future!
Xi Hongdou smiled bitterly: "You can't really watch your family die." "She's just too soft-hearted, otherwise she really doesn't want to care, and now she hurts everywhere.
Xiao Zhi sighed, and said, "I just released it, I'll go home first, and then let the carriage come and pick you up." ”
"Huh? Staying at your house? Not good! Xi Hongdou felt that it was not good for her to live in someone else's house now, Mrs. Xiao had always felt that she was a small family, and if she did something frivolous, she would not be welcomed.
Xiao Zhi asked rhetorically: "What's wrong?" You are now the great benefactor of our Xiao family, you are injured like this now, if our family is not well taken care of, then will my Xiao Zhi still be human? ”
"That's what I said, but ......" Xi Hongdou still didn't feel good.
Fang Sisi entered the door at this time and said, "Your small package has still not been found, and the people from the yamen came and said that no one picked it up." ”
Xi Hongdou listened, a little deflated, all her belongings were gone, and in order not to burden herself before stepping on the nail board yesterday, she threw the small bag on the ground, and she never saw it again. Although she gave Fang Langzhong a diagnosis fee before, she couldn't keep living here for nothing, and Fang Langzhong said that she would be able to go to the ground in two months at the earliest, which ......
"Come with me first, everything will wait until your injuries are healed, and when the time comes, you have to move out to live, and I can't tie you up, right?!" Xiao Zhi said, Xi Hongdou's package was lost at a good time.
Xiao Zhi hurriedly went home to prepare first, and when Fang Sisi saw that the person was gone, he said with a smile: "Your fiancé is also very concerned about you!" ”
Xi Hongdou smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.
In the afternoon, Xiao Zhi came to pick up people, this time he changed his clothes, and the people were washed, and finally regained his old spirit.
He picked up Xi Hongdou, put it in the carriage first, and then turned around and thanked him.
"Hongdou's foot is very likely to hurt the muscles and bones, these days must be made up for well, and the bones can also grow well, so as not to leave sequelae in the future. Didn't you see how terrifying that scene was at that time, if it was my daughter, I wouldn't let her suffer that kind of sin even if I died a hundred times! Fang Langzhong said: "If you have a conscience, you must treat her well in the future!" "Xiao Zhi is also the second ancestor of the famous fight in Kyoto City, although he has not heard of the robbery of people's daughters, but he is also a powerful child after all, and it is very likely that he has a wolf heart and a dog's lungs.
Xiao Zhi nodded and said, "I know, thank you, I'll leave first." Then he got into the carriage too.
On the carriage, Xi Hongdou was lying on a specially paved fur, and he was not awkward under him, but he couldn't move when he made a sound.
Xiao Zhi deliberately asked the coachman to drive slowly, don't have bumps to make Xi Hongdou suffer, a drive of incense, and he was stunned to slowly and leisurely shake three incense sticks on the road before arriving at Xiao's mansion.
Picking up the person and getting out of the car, Xiao Zhi was cautious, and Mrs. Xiao also came to the door to greet people, although she was not very satisfied with Xi Hongdou, but Xi Hongdou was the benefactor of the Xiao family, and she had to take good care of Xi Hongdou to take care of the injury first.
Xiao Zhi directly let Xi Hongdou live in his yard, and he lived in the study, and the maids and servants in the family also resumed their work normally, and they could take care of Xi Hongdou, but Xiao Zhi was still not at ease, and accompanied Xi Hongdou in the yard all day long.
When he needed to change the dressing, Xiao Zhi still invited Fang Langzhong, and when the gauze wrapped around his hand was removed, looking at a few black holes, Xiao Zhi felt very uncomfortable, and Mrs. Xiao felt pain when she looked at it.
When it was time to change the medicine on his feet, Xi Hongdou said, "Otherwise, you can go out and wait." "The flesh on my feet is all messed up, and I'm afraid of leaving a shadow on everyone.
"No, I'll just wait here." Xiao Zhi said, Mrs. Xiao didn't leave.
Fang Langzhong uncovered the gauze little by little, the closer he got to the flesh, the more difficult the gauze became, the blood and gauze were sticking together, and with a little force, Xi Hongdou's legs were so painful that he twitched.
By the time all the gauze was removed, Xiao Zhi's face was already iron-blue.
Mrs. Xiao really couldn't stand it anymore, so she hurriedly went to wait outside the door first, thinking that this Xi Hongdou was really desperate.
Xi Hongdou looked at Xiao Zhi's expression and said, "I said that I would let you go out, you have to watch it." After reading it, she looked like she was going to cry, which made her quite embarrassed.
In front of Fang Langzhong, Xiao Zhi didn't know what to say.
Fang Langzhong changed the medicine and re-bandaged it, and then left the prescription with painkillers and left first, Mrs. Xiao gave the consultation fee, and asked the subordinates to follow to grab the medicine, Xiao Zhi and Xi Hongdou were finally able to be alone for a while.
Xi Hongdou said: "Actually, it's okay, you give me good food, good drink, and good maintenance, it will definitely be good and fast." ”
Xiao Zhi touched Xi Hongdou's face and asked, "How did you survive?" "Ten years ago, he was still young, and he had seen someone sue the emperor, and he had a shadow of that bloody and miserable appearance, so he said that he would not let Xi Hongdou step on the nail board.
Xi Hongdou smiled and said, "When I left, I drank a bowl of anesthetic, but the pain was actually acceptable at that time. If she hadn't had that bowl of anesthetic, she might not have had a second foot if she really stepped on the first foot, and she would have run early.
Xiao Zhi knew that Xi Hongdou was deliberately saying this, just because he was afraid that he would be sad, and he didn't say anything comforting or guilty for a long time, and Xi Hongdou's suffering would not relieve half of the pain at all with what he said, and it didn't have much weight to say it.
"Take care of it first, I'll go to the kitchen, whatever you want to eat, I'll get it for you!" Xiao Zhi said, at this time, it is better to do something practical.
Xi Hongdou smiled, now he can't eat big fish and meat, Fang Langzhong also specially instructed not to eat fishy hair, otherwise the wound will be rotten.
"I want to drink mung bean porridge." Xi Hongdou said: "It's a big jujube or something, a dessert." "Eating something sweet can also relieve anxiety.
Xiao Zhi nodded, and hurriedly went to the kitchen to get porridge.
The Xiao family was almost raided before, so Xi Hongdou sued early, otherwise there would be nothing at home now.
After knowing that Xi Hongdou had come to sue the royal complaint, he thought about how right it was to take the risk of accompanying Xiao Zhi to the Xi family to propose marriage at home.
Xiao Zhi found a cook in the kitchen and asked him to boil the porridge, and basically put everything that could be put into the porridge, and the mung bean porridge became eight-treasure porridge.
"Why is it so slow?" Xiao Zhi couldn't wait and hurriedly urged.
"If this porridge is boiled quickly, the grain will be hard inside, and it will hurt your stomach if you eat it!" As the cook spoke, he asked the girl who burned the fire to fan the flames, and the small stove had to take his time to cook the porridge.
Xiao Zhi was in a hurry, he took the pu fan and fanned the wind, listening to the sound of gurgling in the pot, Xiao Zhi was finally in a better mood.
At noon, Xi Hongdou fell asleep, and when he woke up, he saw Xiao Zhi leaning on the bed frame and holding his arms and falling asleep.
The weather is a little hot, Xi Hongdou feels uncomfortable on her hands and feet, and she also has sweat on her body.
Xiao Zhi woke up at this time, and when he saw that Xi Hongdou was also awake, he came over to help put a few pillows.
