The familiar people around me are gone, but this life still has to go on.

Zhong Xiaoshu was in a very depressed mood since he came back from sending off his relatives that day, he was often distracted, and he couldn't be interested in doing anything, so he simply slept deeply for two days.

But in my dreams, I didn't dream of Zhao Linglong's figure.

Sometimes I slept until mid-morning, and after waking up, I couldn't help but remember the time when Zhao Linglong came to annoy herself every day, and it was always just dawn.

At that time, I thought she was arguing that she was sleeping, but now I don't have a chance to dislike it.

Another friend who came to talk left, not to mention that this time it was even more far away, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to see each other again in the future.

A few days have passed in a blink of an eye, Zhong Xiaoshu sat on the couch and looked out the window, thinking about Zhao Linglong in her heart, and she didn't know where she had gone now, and whether she had encountered any difficulties.

Thinking like this, even Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't help but secretly laugh at himself, when did he become the character of this old mother.

"Xiao Shu, it's time to eat." Yin Zhige stood outside the door and reminded him, which brought Zhong Xiaoshu back to his senses.

Zhong Xiaoshu nodded and followed Yin Zhige to the dining room.

Yin Zhige knew that Zhong Xiaoshu was in a low mood in the past two days, so he said something interesting while sandwiching food into Zhong Xiaoshu's bowl.

The atmosphere during the banquet finally became more harmonious, but Nianwu hurriedly ran in with a letter.

"General, ma'am, there is a letter from home, it is urgent." Nian Wu ran fast, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Zhong Xiaoshu and Yin Zhige glanced at each other when they heard this, and they both saw surprise and worry in each other's eyes.

Some time ago, Wanniang just sent a letter home, and there is no reason to write a second letter in such a short time.

What's more, it's still an urgent letter to the family, something big must have happened.

A sense of foreboding arose.

Nian Wu didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly stepped forward a few steps to put the family letter in front of Zhong Xiaoshu and Yin Zhige.

Sure enough, after opening the envelope, the above sentence made the mood of the two of them fall to the bottom in an instant.

"Zhige, Xiao Shu, return to my hometown as soon as possible after seeing the letter, my mother Guo suddenly fell seriously ill, and the doctor has said that it may be difficult to cure, and there is not much time."

With just such a short sentence, both of them were stunned for a long time.

Nian Wu looked at the looks of the two of them, and he also knew that Xu was a bad thing.

Yin Zhige has a very good relationship with his mother Guo, and since the death of his father, the two brothers have been more filial to their mother.

Seeing such news now, Yin Zhige couldn't accept it in his heart.

Although Guo is old and in poor health, he knows that this kind of thing will happen sooner or later, but he still can't be calm.

However, Zhong Xiaoshu was the first to react, and hurriedly grabbed Yin Zhige's hand and said: "Zhige, we will leave overnight now, I will go and tell them to prepare the carriage, and you will enter the palace first to explain the situation to the emperor." ”

Yin Zhige pursed his lips and did not refuse, and immediately rode a fast horse to the palace to report.

By the time Yin Zhige came back, Zhong Xiaoshu had already packed up the salute that the two of them were going to bring, and the carriage had already stopped outside the general's mansion.

After all, both of them are leaving this time, and there has to be someone in the general's mansion to watch, so Zhong Xiaoshu left Nianwu in the mansion, and he left with Yin Zhige.

Although it was late at night, neither of them had the heart to sleep along the way.

Yin Zhige was originally a person who was not good at words, and he was even more silent at this time.

The night was long, and the only thing was the sound of startled birds flapping their wings from time to time outside the car.

Although there is a stove lit in the car, it is already deep winter, and it is extremely cold at night.

Zhong Xiaoshu took a blanket and covered Yin Zhige's body, and said in a low voice: "It's a long way to go back this time, even if it's a few days to whip up, you might as well rest for a while, you have to take care of your spirits." ”

Zhong Xiaoshu held Yin Zhige's hand, and she could clearly feel the sweat and slight trembling in Yin Zhige's palm.

Yin Zhige's eyes were full of worry and decadence, as if the high-spirited young general had aged a few years in an instant.

"I'm not sleepy, if the lady is sleepy, just rest for a while, and I'll call you when you get to the post station." Yin Zhige shook his head and said.

Yin Zhige didn't have the heart to rest, and Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't sleep.

She married into the Yin family on the first day she came to this world, although she is not a very wealthy family, but in the end she is also very loving.

Mother-in-law Guo has always been a loving person in Zhong Xiaoshu's impression, and when she was in the Yin family, her mother-in-law treated her as her own daughter.

At that time, I felt that my mother-in-law was much better than Zhang Cuiyun and Zhong Xiaodi.

Now that he has learned the news of Guo's serious illness, Zhong Xiaoshu's heart is also uncomfortable.

"The last time my mother wrote to me, she also told me some scattered things, presumably my mother-in-law was fine at that time, how could she be seriously ill." Zhong Xiaoshu said worriedly.

Yin Zhige shook his head.

That's exactly what he wants to know.

Obviously, his mother's condition has always been stable, and there have been no problems in the past few years, why did she become seriously ill in just ten days?

The two men were silent for a moment, and there was silence in the carriage.

I don't know how long it took, Zhong Xiaoshu fell asleep groggily.

Xu has too many things on his mind, maybe it is because the carriage is bumpy along the way, Zhong Xiaoshu always can't sleep steadily.

The dream is full of some strange nightmares, but I can't get rid of it.

I finally woke up after a few tosses.

Zhong Xiaoshu only felt very dizzy, and after waking up for a moment, he realized where he was.

"Xiao Shu, are you awake?" A hoarse male voice sounded beside him.

Zhong Xiaoshu turned around and saw Yin Zhige's haggard face.

I haven't slept all night, Yin Zhige's eyes are already full of red bloodshots, and even the stubble has faintly popped out.

Zhong Xiaoshu looked at Yin Zhige distressedly: "You haven't slept all night?" ”

Yin Zhige nodded lightly.

"How can you do this, there are still a few days to go back, if you don't take a break, there are many things to do when you go back, and your body can't hold it."

"It's okay, there have been people who have suffered more than this in the previous wars," Yin Zhige forced a smile, "I'm going to enter the city ahead, and you're hungry all the way, why don't you find a restaurant to eat and rest before you continue to hurry." ”

This man still cares about himself at such a moment, how can Zhong Xiaoshu not be moved?

But Zhong Xiaoshu is not a hypocritical person, and he can distinguish priorities better, so he shook his head and said: "Don't be so troublesome, buy some dry food and take it with you on the road, it's important to hurry now." ”

When Yin Zhige heard this, he glanced at Zhong Xiaoshu gratefully, and responded after being silent for a while.
