Chapter 558: Dark Birth
558
The market is still bustling and lively, with laughter and noise everywhere.
Wei Yining sat on the horse's back, and Zhong Ye led the horse and walked unhurriedly.
"Who do you think sent those people?" Zhong Ye asked Wei Yining.
"Most of them are the Xu family," Wei Yining said, "Presumably they counted Xu Zhixi's death on my head." ”
"As I thought," Zhong Ye said, "these killers are not something ordinary people can afford. ”
"Originally, I thought that I would not settle accounts with me until I returned to the palace, but I didn't expect it to be so soon." Wei Yining smiled bitterly.
"The Xu family has always been domineering and strong, and they will not give up until they are glared at, not to mention that their young lady is dead." Zhong Ye said disdainfully: "There is simply no virtue at all." ”
"I hope they will be merciful and let me have a safe and peaceful year." Wei Yining said.
"Does the wound still hurt?" Zhong Ye turned around and asked her, even if Wei Yining was on a horse, Zhong Ye could still look at her level.
"Much better, no more bloodshed." Wei Yining's tone was relaxed.
"Then loosen the strap," Zhong Ye said, "Otherwise, your arms will stiffen after too long." ”
"Grandpa Zhong," Wei Yining suddenly lowered: "I'm really sorry." ”
"What's wrong?" Zhong Ye smiled and asked, "What is there to be sorry for?" ”
"I can't make the clothes I promised to make for you," Wei Yining said regretfully, "I can only wait until the injury is healed." ”
"There's no hurry," Zhong Ye said softly, "It's a long time coming." ”
Zhong Ye did not send Wei Yining back directly, but took her to the family medical clinic for bandaging.
He was prescribed some painkillers and new medicines.
"Don't get water on the wound, don't eat spicy and fishy things," Lao Langzhong said with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and earnestly admonished: "The wound will itch when the wound scabs over, don't scratch it." This official, you have to take care of your little wife, otherwise you will have a scar. ”
"Uh...... Doctor, you're mistaken. Zhong Ye was afraid that Wei Yining would be ugly, so he hurriedly explained.
However, this man was middle-aged and had his ears back, and he didn't hear Zhong Ye's words clearly, so he said to himself: "The sword has no eyes!" You must be careful, you are an official who knows martial arts at first glance, and you have to teach your wife how to dance the sword, which is not fun. ”
Zhong Ye and Yining couldn't help but smile when they looked at each other, the two of them didn't explain why Wei Yining was injured, this Lang Zhong also worked as a storyteller, and he was especially good at making up stories.
It was already late at night when I came out of the hospital.
There were still food stalls along the street that had not been collected, and Zhong Ye stopped to buy a bowl of bone broth wontons.
"When I was a child, if I was injured, my mother would always make me something delicious." Zhong Ye said while carefully feeding Wei Yining wontons: "She said that when she has an injury, eat hot rice and drink hot soup, it won't hurt so much, and the wound will heal quickly." I remember when my mother brought me into Beijing, I was only five years old, and we came in as soon as I opened the city gate. It was still raining that day, wet and cold, and I was crying out that I was hungry, and I happened to come across this wonton stand. At that time, my mother had no money on her, so she exchanged a handkerchief for a bowl of ravioli. Our mother and son finished eating the bowl of wontons before entering the palace. After so many years, the taste of his wontons has not changed. ”
Wei Yining looked at Zhong Ye, there was a layer of water in his eyes when the lights were on, Wei Yining had also lost his relatives and experienced hardships, and understood what a bowl of hot soup meant to poor and hungry people.
"Grandpa Zhong," Wei Yining asked cautiously, "Can I go and worship Mrs. Tai?" ”
Zhong Ye was a little surprised, and said after a little coming back to his senses: "I'll talk about it when you recover from your injuries." ”
When Wei Yining finished eating the wontons, Zhong Ye wrapped her cloak tightly again, and then led the horse to send her back.
Wei Yining paid attention to Zhong Ye's always trying to let the horse walk on a flat place to reduce bumps, so as not to hurt his wounds, and his heart couldn't help but warm.
I don't know when it will be, as long as Zhong Ye is here, Wei Yining will feel extremely safe.
Will let down all vigilance and be carefree like a girl of the same age.
"Grandpa Zhong, you have to do me a favor." When he arrived at the door, Wei Yining whispered to Zhong Ye.
"How?" Zhong Ye's voice also lowered unconsciously.
"My grandmother will be frightened when I know about it like this, and besides, it's so late, the people in the house have already gone to bed, they must think that I will live in my stepmother's house and not come back." Wei Yining said: "So please send me into the courtyard quietly, don't alarm people." ”
This is easy for Zhong Ye.
The five-flowered horse was casually thrown on the street, and Zhong Ye carefully escorted Wei Yining to the door of the house.
"Thank you, Grandpa Zhong." Wei Yining smiled and returned the cloak to Zhong Ye with a playful look: "I'm going to go in and sleep." ”
"You still have to be careful with your wounds, and if you have something, ask someone to send me a letter." Zhong Ye was always uneasy.
"Uh-huh." Wei Yining replied obediently: "I remember." ”
Zhong Ye couldn't help but reach out and touch her head again: "Go to sleep!" ”
Wei Yining cautiously pushed open the door and entered.
However, Zhong Ye did not leave, he came to the top of the highest main house in the courtyard, and silently guarded it under the starry sky until dawn.
The next morning, Xiao She'er got up and found that the young lady had returned at some point.
"Girl, when did you come back yesterday? Why didn't you wake me up? Xiao She'er asked aggrievedly: "I thought you wouldn't come back!" ”
"I didn't wake you up when I came back a little late," Wei Yining said with a smile, "I can't bear to see you sleeping so soundly." ”
"Oh, girl, why are you hurt?" Xiao She'er couldn't help but be shocked when she saw that Wei Yining's middle coat was stained with blood.
"Quietly, don't let anyone know." Wei Yining motioned to her and whispered: "It's just a skin injury." At that time, you said that I accidentally fell on the arm when I got up the horse, and it was okay to raise it for two days. ”
Xiao She'er has always been simple, and she listens to whatever Wei Yining says, so she doesn't ask more.
found a new set of Chinese clothes for Wei Yining to change into, and helped her finish grooming, and went to Mrs. Zhu's side to say goodbye.
Mrs. Zhu was also surprised to see her, but Wei Yining covered it up with a few words.
"Grandmother, Sister Lan Shan, they have to let me stay for a few days, I want to ask what you mean." After breakfast, Wei Yining asked Mrs. Tai.
"What is there to ask for here, you just went over, and their family is not an outsider, a relative inside and out." Mrs. Zhu said: "You don't have to worry about me and Hong'an, there are people in the family who serve." ”
Wei Yining first agreed to Wei Laner and others, and secondly, he was afraid that he would be seen by his grandmother for a long time at home. Going to Wei's house for a few days is just enough to recuperate from her injuries, but before going to Wei's house again, she has to go to Shao Nan and Shao Yang and ask them to help ensure the safety of Mrs. Zhu's wife He Wei Hongan.
Because I don't know if the Xu family will do something more frustrating, we have to be on guard.
