Chapter 920: Gotta hold on
When Mrs. Liu came to visit again, it was three days later, and it was only a quarter of an hour.
She brought a few steamed buns, and a cup of porridge, and handed it to Master Liu: "I don't know what he can and can't eat, but he didn't put anything on the side of the porridge, so he added a little salt." ”
Master Liu stuffed the porridge to Chu Yun, and said in a suppressed voice, "Hurry up and feed it." ”
Chu Yun nodded gratefully, did not shirk, and only hurried to feed Cheng Jinzhi.
It can be seen from the materials used in the steamed buns in the past that the Liu family is actually not rich, and the Liu woman should not dare to spend money indiscriminately, after all, it will cost some money to get through the door.
Today's porridge, in order to let the comatose Cheng Jinzhi swallow it well, it is not thick, Chu Yun fed it very carefully, for fear of wasting it.
No matter how bland the porridge is, it is better than the glutinous rice.
"Eat more and have more strength, and then hold on, let's hold on again, your daughter-in-law is still waiting for you at home." Chu Yun didn't dare to feed in a hurry, he was afraid that people would choke, and he was afraid of taking his time, so he couldn't finish feeding in a quarter of an hour, so he could only coax the injured like a child, and he didn't know how much he could hear.
The porridge with a faint smell of rice was unique in this foul-smelling cell, and someone in the next room was about to make a fuss, but was restrained by the person next to him covering his mouth.
The people who made trouble were all prisoners who were locked in early in the morning, and there were people who killed people and set fires, and after the rebellion in Shudi, no one cared about them, and they were all thrown inside to fend for themselves.
The one who stopped them and didn't ask them to make trouble was either captured together, whether they recognized Cheng Jinzhi or not, in short, they were saving the seriously injured brothers, and they couldn't let people do anything bad; Either it is an official who refuses to rebel, although he doesn't know the specifics, but if Master Liu wants to help, they will help.
Lady Liu packed up her things and left, leaving behind a small bottle of gold sore medicine.
Chu Yun has been a soldier for many years, and he knows a little bit about all kinds of external injuries, and when he first came in, he had no conditions, so he simply helped Cheng Jinzhi deal with it.
It is also thanks to Cheng Jinzhi's young age and good physique, otherwise, he would not be able to withstand such a rough way to deal with it.
The wound is half-healed, but it looks like a mess, Chu Yun still has those old words, asking Cheng Jinzhi to hold on.
The medicine powder fell on the injured area, Cheng Jinzhi snorted twice in a groggy manner, his eyelids moved, he opened slightly, and faintly saw a little light.
Chu Yun's mouth didn't stop: "It's just over the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you haven't married a daughter-in-law for a year, what do you want to have, what do you want your younger siblings to do?" ”
Cheng Jinzhi's lips spurted, the salty porridge left in his mouth was all bitter, he couldn't recognize the place he came from, and he didn't know who was on the side, he only understood the faint light.
It's moonlight, cold and alienated.
In my memory, there was such a smiling person who said that he would always look at the moon with him.
He agreed, and he deserved it sincerely and sincerely, without hesitation, and of course he had to make a promise.
He had to hold on, he had to go back and see the moon with her......
Hazy, Cheng Jinzhi fell asleep again.
Chu Yun lowered his eyes, looked at Cheng Jinzhi's injury, and did not say anything more.
The moonlight disappeared, but it was not a bright day, it was gloomy morning, and just after noon, it rained lightly, dripping and seeping.
It rained for several days, and a few embarrassed men drove the carriage into the county seat, found an inn, and shouted to rest.
Xiao Er was busy entertaining, and he muttered in his heart, it is not that it is a war and chaos at the moment, but it is a big gap from the peaceful and prosperous world, and there is a war ahead, how can there be merchants in such a small place as them.
The men seemed to be in a bad mood, and they sat in the lobby and ate a lot of wine, and they also talked about a lot of ins and outs.
They went south and north to turn their business, but unfortunately they were in the war, and they were delayed for several months in Shu and there was no way out, and this business lost a lot of money, I don't know if they were depressed or drunk, and there were two people with red eyes and drank alcohol.
The proprietor listened from the sidelines, and sighed at the end.
If you say that you will fight a war, aren't they the common people who suffer?
The county seat is so small, there is no business, and when there is a war, it is even more bleak, they are all begging for a living, and no one is easier than others.
The man at the head of the caravan said: "I encountered a robbery on the road two days ago, if it weren't for the fact that the brothers still have some skills, I am afraid that they will lose their goods and lose their lives, so I will go to the yamen to complain about this matter, do you care?" ”
The proprietor smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Our original county master, who refused to follow the army, was beheaded at the corner of the street, the new one, I am afraid that this kind of thing cannot be counted on......"
The man wiped his face and didn't give up any hope: "Just go and try it, try it." ”
In the afternoon, facing the autumn rain, a man went to the yamen to take a turn, shouting in his mouth to report to the official to catch the green forest, but his eyes were carefully looked at outside the door, and he couldn't help but miss it, he pretended to be pushed by the officials and lost his balance, and fell face down in front of the doorrail, squinting at the ground.
There was a blood mark on the ground, which was not clear, but they were "well-informed" and could tell that it was a mark left by the palm of the palm rubbing the ground.
The man knew it in his heart, and returned to the inn to find the one who started the fight: "Brother, seven or eight out of ten is here, let's inform Brother Yuan." ”
The head of the rush responded.
Jiang Muyuan wanted to find the place where Cheng Jinzhi was imprisoned, the soldiers in the battalion were not easy to move, Yuan Er and his subordinates, who were pretending to be caravans all the year round, were more active, so they took the job and searched everywhere according to the map.
In order to speed up the progress, the soldiers were divided into five routes, the fifth master personally led a team, Yuan Er also led a team, and the other three teams were led by the fifth master's cronies.
Their team was lucky, and when they found the third yamen, they had a "seven or eight out of ten".
It's just that this trip out, Shi Qi and they all stayed in Beijing, and Yuan Er was the only one who recognized Cheng Jinzhi's appearance, so he had to be recognized.
Yuan Er got the letter and hurried to this small county town.
The new county magistrate doesn't care about anything, and the people below are listless, but Rao is like this, and it is a fool's dream to want to get into prison during the day.
Yuan Er waited until midnight, and wanted to take advantage of the lax guard in the middle of the night and spend some silver to buy it in, but he didn't want to, before he could act, a woman went around the prison first.
The woman stayed in for a quarter of an hour and came out again, Yuan Er followed her all the way, and when she inquired about it at dawn, she learned that the woman's surname was Liu, and her father was in prison.
Yuan Er figured out what Master Liu was like, so he went to the door and gave a big salute to Mrs. Liu: "A brother in the family has been lost on the battlefield, I don't know if he is dead or arrested, I am looking everywhere, just arrived here, the eldest mother can go to prison, can you pick me up, let me also look for my brother." ”
Mrs. Liu was on guard, and when she heard Yuan Er make up a circle of stories, she also relented: "You should accumulate virtue for my father." ”
On the fourth watch, Mrs. Liu took Yuan Er to the mansion.
The little official guarding the cell looked Yuan Er up and down.
Lady Liu said: "My aunt's nephew, my father doesn't know how long he can last, he has no sons and grandchildren, I asked my nephew to send it." ”
