In the small village, the chessboard is dotted with several courtyards, and there are several loess paths in between.

The woman stepped forward with a smile, took the burden from the man's hand, and saw the two people standing behind her man, the woman in red was lying on the man's shoulder weakly, and the woman was shocked.

"Who are these two?" The woman was suspicious that her man was well-known in the village for his warm-heartedness, but it was the first time that she had brought an outsider home.

"Oh, these two were met last night when I was sheltering from the rain in the temple, and when I saw that they were pitiful, I brought them back, let's go, go home first," the man said and smiled honestly, picked up the burden and walked home. The woman saw that the man was having some trouble carrying the woman on his back, so she helped her behind her and walked slowly towards the house.

On the road, there are old people sitting in front of the courtyard gate basking in the sun, and they look curiously when they see people coming from afar.

"Yo, it's Da Zhuang, this is going to the city to make a lot of money again," the old man with a bare scalp not far away saw Li Dazhuang carrying the basket, and he grinned early, revealing the gums that were missing two front teeth.

"What's the seventh uncle, reselling some mountain goods is just enough to supplement the family," Li Dazhuang smiled and scratched his head, "Your old man is really blessed, and the sun is warm today." "

"No, it suddenly rained so heavily last night, and I still thought that it wouldn't be sunny today, who knew it would be a sunny day," Uncle Li squinted his eyes like an old cat in the sun, and at this moment he saw two strange men and women standing behind Li Dazhuang, "Da Zhuang, why do these two descendants look like this?" "

"Last night I was sheltering from the rain in the temple, and I happened to meet these two people, this girl is sick, the two of them are homeless, blame the pitiful, I will bring them back," Li Dazhuang pointed to the woman on Lin Daimo's back who was still in a coma. Uncle Seventh also worked as a wild wanderer for a few years, and he also had a good understanding of the symptoms, and when he looked at it, he knew that this girl was weak, so he waved his hand and said, "Come back, my old man will also go over to take a look later." "

After turning another street, Li Dazhuang stopped at a stone-built gate, and the simple bamboo gate blocked the door obliquely, and Aunt Li only stepped forward and pushed it aside. A few chickens and ducks in the courtyard leisurely looked down for food, and they all cooed when they saw the living. There was a huge jujube tree on one side of the yard, and its branches almost poked into the eaves. The three adobe houses are lined up, and although they are extremely simple, they are very clean by the owner.

Aunt Li pushed open the door in the middle and led Lin Daimo through the hall to the side room, only to see that the room was simply furnished, only a wooden bed was placed, and a large box was placed in the corner of the room, on which a stack of clean coarse cloth clothes was stacked.

Lin Daimo put Lu Mengjian on the bed with the help of Aunt Li, Xu touched the sore spot, and the painful Lu Mengjian snorted lightly. Aunt Li saw that Lu Mengjian's face was surprisingly red, and she reached out to touch it, only to feel that it was hot and scary, "Why is this girl burning so badly!" Zhong'er and his father, is Uncle Seventh here? "

Li Dazhuang just put the flat pole in the courtyard, washed his face indiscriminately, and replied to the room: "Not yet, I'll go and ask for it right away." Before the words fell, I heard the voice of the seventh uncle from outside the hospital, "Come, come, cough cough, the old man is old, and his body and bones are not good......"

In the countryside, there is no big family, so the seventh uncle sat directly in front of the couch, put his hand on Lu Mengjian's wrist, and after a few breaths, the originally slightly smiling face gradually frowned.

"Uncle Seven, what's wrong with her?" Aunt Li saw that Uncle Seven frowned, and knew that something was wrong, so she asked softly.

"Tsk, this girl originally had injuries on her body, the wounds were a little infected, and then she suffered from the cold," Uncle Seven shook his head helplessly, "The old man, I am not good at medicine, so I can only prescribe a pair of medicines to eat first, and the rest, let it be fate......"

Lin Daimo leaned coldly on the corner of the wall and rubbed his shoulders, although this woman was very light, but along the way, half of his body was numb. He had no intention of rescuing Lu Mengjian, but now he felt that benevolence and righteousness had been exhausted, and it had nothing to do with him whether Lu Mengjian could survive or not, so he just watched indifferently as everyone in front of him circled around her.

When Aunt Li saw that he was expressionless, she thought she was extremely sad, and she was very sympathetic to him in her heart. I heard my man roughly mention that this person was homeless, and then saw the woman on the sickbed, and felt that the two of them were pitiful, so he discussed with Li Dazhuang, "Zhong'er and his father, I think these two people are pitiful, why don't you leave them in our house for a few days, and wait for the woman to recover before making plans?" "

Li Dazhuang originally had this intention, and nodded again and again, "Then let them live at home first, these two are also pitiful, they passed away as soon as they became their own father, and they were taken out of the family property by their adoptive mother." "

"Adoptive mother?" Aunt Li glanced at Lin Daimo in the corner of the wall and lowered her voice, "Even an adoptive mother can't be so ruthless, really, alas!" Seeing that this child looks so gentle, he doesn't look like a person who has endured hardships, and the days to come will really be enough for them to survive," Aunt Li lowered her voice and sighed softly.

"But no," Li Dazhuang opened his mouth, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the woman on the bed moan lowly: "Pain, it hurts......" Aunt Li heard the sound and walked quickly to the bed.

"Girl, you finally woke up, don't cry, don't cry, where is the pain, come and talk to your aunt," Aunt Li held the woman's hand, and saw that tears were rolling down from the corners of the woman's eyes, and couldn't help but comfort her softly. Lu Mengjian heard this gentle and kind female voice, and his heart quieted down, but as he regained consciousness, the pain in his body became more and more obvious. She has been in good health since she was a child, and even bumps are rare, but now she is suffering from such severe pain, every time she moves, it is like a heart, and tears can't help but drip down the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Aunt Li motioned to several men in the room to avoid going out, and then untied Lu Mengjian's thin layer of clothes, and before the clothes were completely removed, she saw that her legs were bruised and swollen. And just the friction between the clothes and the skin has made Lu Mengjian painful. Aunt Li's movements were extremely gentle, but they still caused Lu Mengjian to gasp in pain.

"Girl, bear with me," Lu Mengjian nodded tearfully, looking at the purple waist and legs, Aunt Li was ruthless, turned Lu Mengjian over, and when her back was presented in front of her, even Aunt Li couldn't help covering her mouth and rushed out of the door with tears in her eyes.

Li Dazhuang had never seen his wife so out of shape, thinking that there was a conflict in the room, so he rushed to the room, but was pulled by Aunt Li. Lin Daimo also felt strange, so he walked to the middle of the room, and just walked to the door of the side room, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

I saw the woman lying on the bed, from the back to the thighs, bruises, bruises and bloodstained whip marks, which looked shocking, and a large area of skin had already become swollen, and some parts had ulcerated and suppurated. The whole back was hideous, which was in stark contrast to her fair and delicate face.

Outside, Li Dazhuang had quickly invited the seventh uncle who had gone away to go home and hid outside to avoid suspicion. Aunt Li stopped her tears, saw Lin Dai Mo standing at the door, walked slowly to the front and said, "This little brother, what did that girl do wrong to let people use such a cruel punishment?" "

Lin Daimo shook his head, only then did he think of being indecent and ignore it, and suddenly covered his eyes and turned his back.

"What a black heart you have to have to be so ruthless!" Aunt Li said, picked up the handkerchief and wiped her tears, and heard the seventh uncle coughing lightly outside, only then did she think of her purpose for this time, "Little brother, I know that you have just gotten married, but it is not a way for your lady to drag it down like this, do you see if you can ask the seventh uncle to take a look at it, prescribe a prescription for the symptoms, and heal the girl's injuries as soon as possible?" "

Lin Daimo thought about it carefully, Aunt Li was probably worried that she would mind the body of the "lady" being seen by others, so she was worried. After thinking about it again, he had no feelings for this woman, and the matter of getting married was even more absurd, so he nodded and agreed without hesitation.

Seeing that the man agreed, Aunt Li walked into the room, and carefully covered Lu Mengjian's waist down, only revealing part of the back skin, and then invited the seventh uncle into the door, the two stood in the room and were silent for a long time, and the seventh uncle finally sighed and walked out.

"Uncle Seven, what's wrong with that woman?" Seeing the reactions of several people, Li Dazhuang kept scratching his head outside the door, and when he saw the seventh uncle coming out, he stepped forward and asked.

"Alas, what a wickedness!" The seventh uncle took a puff of the dry cigarette in his hand, sat on the threshold for a while, and then raised his head and said, "Da Zhuang, where did you pick up this woman and send it back!" "

As soon as these words came out, Li Dazhuang didn't react, which shocked Lin Daimo's heart, "Isn't this woman's life difficult to protect?" "

"Uncle Seven, what are you talking about, isn't that woman just having a high fever, how can we see death and not save it!" Li Dazhuang's face turned red, and he saw his own lady behind Uncle Seven with red eyes, "No matter what, people have brought it back, so we have to try our best to save it!" "

"Seventh Uncle," Lin Daimo finally walked into the courtyard, and also called Seventh Uncle like Li Dazhuang, "Please be sure to do your best to save Neiko, you don't have to worry about the silver two," Lin Daimo took out all the remaining broken silver from his pocket and handed it to Seventh Uncle.

Lu Mengjian's back injury, Lin Daimo could see it clearly. When he carried Lu Mengjian and walked out of the gate of the Lin family, he thought that this woman was disabled, but he didn't expect that she was seriously injured, and he carried her on his shoulders so roughly, thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel guilty.

The seventh uncle weighed the silver taels in his hand, but his face was still embarrassed, "It's not that I don't want to save this girl, but the injuries on her body are too serious." Originally, this wound could be directly soaked in herbal medicine, but now the wound has suppurated, and if you take a medicated bath, it will inevitably cause infection and aggravate the injury. However, I heard that there is a Jinchuang medicine for sale in the Chinese medicine shop in the city, but how can we ordinary people afford to use the Jinchuang medicine? "

"These silver taels, I'm afraid they can only buy three days' supply, alas, it's really ......" Uncle Seven had already stuffed the silver taels back into Lin Daimo's hands. Lin Daimo has been rich since he was a child, and he has never been troubled by expenses, but at this moment, he looked at the meager silver taels in his hand, and his face turned red.
