Chapter 140: Heart Knot
Ah Jian didn't take all the gold and silver in the box, but directly picked the most practical silver ticket and hid it in his arms, and was just about to bury the box again, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a small wooden box.
The small wooden box was locked with a delicate little lock, and it was not known what it contained.
However, he thought that according to the character of the second master, maybe this wooden box contained his most valuable treasure, and it didn't take up space anyway, so he simply put it in his arms.
buried the box again, and Ah Jian didn't dare to stay, so he slipped back to the village.
He walked all the way into the village with his head down, and no matter who he met along the way, he did not dare to greet anyone, but walked with his head bored, and when he returned home, he went straight to the back room.
The wife leaned on the head of the bed, and when she heard the movement, she forced herself to get up to check, but she was a little surprised to find that it was her husband who came back.
"Why are you back here?"
She didn't actually know what Ah Jian was doing for a living, but she understood that her husband earned a lot of money from his job, otherwise where could she afford to buy those expensive medicinal herbs, which made her barely survive for so many years.
But the more she understood this, the more she felt sorry for her husband, if it weren't for her as a sick man, maybe his life would be fine.
"Husband, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as she saw Ah Jian, the woman keenly noticed the problem.
Although she was sick in bed and her body was weak, she did not lose her five senses, but her sense of smell was much more sensitive than that of ordinary people. At this moment, she smelled the unusual fishy sweetness of Ah Jian's body, and it was mixed with the smell of earth.
What's going on here?
For a while, the woman was uncontrollably thinking, and she only felt that Ah Jian had done something terrible.
"Are you hurt?"
"No, it's fine."
Ah Jian didn't expect his wife to ask such a question, and was stunned for a moment, then he waved his hand again and again, indicating that he was fine. "It's not me, it's just a brother who accidentally got injured while working. I guess it was because I was close to him and blood sprayed on me. ”
Ah Jian did have blood stains on him, but it was not his own blood, but when Zhao Jingxuan killed those bandits, some of them splashed on the table, and he accidentally stained them.
"Really? But how do I feel so abnormal? ”
The woman looked at her husband suspiciously, trying to see through the truth of the matter.
Ah Jian was panicked by her staring, hurriedly raised his voice, and said in a rough voice: "What, don't you even believe me now?" ”
"No, it's not, don't get me wrong."
As soon as the woman heard Ah Jian ask this, she understood that he was angry, and hurriedly explained, trying to calm his emotions.
She didn't know that the reason why Ah Jian was so angry was not because he was angry at her distrust, but because he was just angry that he was useless.
He felt that if he could be stronger, maybe everything would not happen today, and he would still be able to live in seclusion with his wife in this village, without any problems.
But now he wants to break such a stable life, and he has to leave here with her.
After all, they had lived together for a few years, and Kin felt that this was his home, his second home, but now he had to flee from here.
"Clean up, we'll get out of here tonight."
"How ......"
The woman didn't expect Ah Jian to suddenly say something amazing, and when she heard the words, she was shocked for a moment, and looked at Ah Jian in disbelief. "We're fine here, why are we leaving all of a sudden?"
"Could it be...... Are they chasing after you? ”
Thinking that her family might have found the village, the woman's face turned white and she was so nervous. Douda's cold sweat instantly dripped down her forehead, and she was like a leaf in the wind, crumbling, as if she would fall from the branch into the dirt at any moment.
Ah Jian didn't expect that this incident would have such a big impact on his wife, and he was also shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug her.
"Lady, are you alright? Could it be that there is something uncomfortable? ”
Ah Jian said that he was going to pick up his wife and run out, for the first time in so many years, he saw his wife like this. In the past, although my wife's body was very weak, she would be out of breath if she couldn't go far, and she usually ate little, and if she ate a little more, she would be nauseous and uncomfortable, and the whole person looked sick.
Many people chewed their tongues behind their backs, saying that his wife would die in a short time, but he didn't believe those people's words at all.
Over the years, he has earned a lot of money, taking his wife to see a doctor and grab medicine, and he is not stingy with any expensive medicinal materials, just to maintain her life.
Even though his wife lingers on the sickbed, Ah Kin never regrets his efforts, he feels that it is all worth it!
However, he had never seen his wife like this, and he was immediately frightened.
Could it be that his wife is also going to leave him?
Thinking of this, Ah Jian hugged his wife harder.
"It's them...... Is it coming? ”
The woman took a deep breath and tried to calm down, and the man's embrace dispelled some of her uneasiness, so that she could fully express her thoughts.
"No, you're wrong."
Ah Jian couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he knew his wife's thoughts.
He knew that this was always his wife's knot, and the two of them ran out without hesitation despite the opposition of their families, although they were very happy when they were together, but the guilt in their hearts could not be changed.
His wife's illness is getting more and more serious, and she has seen many doctors, and the doctors' statements are similar, saying that she is depressed and has something on her mind, so she will always be depressed and unhappy, and she has become what she is now.
Although Ah Jian was very unconvinced by the judgments of these doctors, his heart was dripping blood all the time as he saw his beloved woman getting haggard day by day.
"They've probably forgotten about us a long time ago. After so many years, if you want to look for it, you have already found us. ”
Ah Jian comforted his wife, and then continued: "Actually, there is something wrong with the job I am doing, and we have to live in a different place. ”
"Oh, I see."
Hearing that it wasn't the family who came to her, a trace of disappointment flashed in the woman's eyes, but it was more relaxed. Because she didn't know how to deal with the relatives she had betrayed.
Surely they won't forgive her!
"So, why are we in such a hurry? It's just work, it's okay to be late, right? ”
The woman's perception is still very keen, and she always feels that although Ah Jian comforts herself so much, there are many loopholes in her words, which makes her uneasy again.
"It's fine, nothing serious. If you don't want to, we can go back in a few days, it's the same. ”
Ah Jian smiled, not wanting his wife to be upset because of this, so he was busy calming her emotions.
