089 Jiang Mengliang was injured
When Jiang Xiaonian returned to the town, he saw that everyone was gone, so he asked curiously, "Mother, where have they gone?" ”
"Just now, the Tang family sent someone to say that Master Tang has something to do temporarily, and he can't get out, so he will leave tomorrow, so let's go to Uncle Qian's house today to spend the night."
Jiang Xiaonian nodded and said to Zhou Huihui what Li Tiezhu meant.
It just so happened that Jiang Mengliang came back dejectedly.
"Master, what are you doing quietly? In the blink of an eye, there was no shadow. ”
Zhou Huihui had just looked for Jiang Mengliang for a long time, and she was so anxious that she heard Zhu Changfei say that he was going in the direction of the town, thinking about whether he wanted to buy something, and he didn't say a word to her.
Jiang Mengliang sighed and said, "I went to Bibo Lane and wanted to say goodbye to my father." ”
Zhou Huihui saw his expression and knew that the result was not good, so her tone softened, and asked, "Did you tell them?" ”
"My sister-in-law didn't let me in."
Zhou Huihui had long expected such a result, and comforted him: "Don't you care too much, don't they always be like this?" ”
In fact, Jiang Mengliang went this time, not because Jiang Li deliberately embarrassed him and didn't let him in, but because the old lady meant.
The first few times they had already suffered a lot of losses, thinking that Jiang Mengliang had come to sue again this time, for fear that they had intercepted the two taels of silver given by the old lady and would be exposed, so they simply blocked him out of the door.
"Dad, I met Uncle Tiezhu just now, he asked us to help take care of Erzhu's eldest brother and take him with him, let's go back and pick him up quickly."
Jiang Xiaonian knew that Jiang Mengliang was in a low mood at the moment, so he hurriedly changed the topic.
Zhou Huihui also hurriedly took over the topic and told Jiang Mengliang about the Tang family's postponement of the trip.
When Jiang Mengliang heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, let's go back and pick up people first." ”
Then he took a mule cart and hurried home.
Because they were not in a hurry, the two of them swayed slowly on the road, and more than an hour later, they appeared in Wangjia Village.
The two went straight to their house, and as they said before, after they left, they would let Li Erzhu live in.
As a result, I looked around, but I didn't see anyone.
I had to run to the thatched house at the foot of the mountain again, but I didn't see Li Erzhu.
The two had to go home and wait slowly, and by the way, they took out the prepared dry food for lunch.
After waiting for another two hours, he still didn't see Li Erzhu's figure, and Jiang Mengliang was a little anxious.
It's an hour to get to town at the earliest, and if you kill a little more time on the way, it's getting dark.
The two had to go door to door to ask if anyone had seen Li Erzhu.
After asking several families, I finally got news from him, saying that he was going to the mountains.
After an hour or two of searching around, the two finally found Li Erzhu with a blank face, and he was still carrying a basket of freshly ripe oranges with a slight cyan color.
"Brother Meng Liang, Xiao Nian, aren't you leaving? How did you come back again? ”
Jiang Mengliang took his hand and dragged him forward: "Don't say more, come with us, we met your brother in the town, he asked you to go to Shitan County with us, and he will look for you there in the future." ”
"Oops, my oranges!"
"Don't care what oranges, don't want it, go quickly, it's going to be dark."
The three of them sat on the mule cart and hurried back.
After spending so long, Zhou Huihui and the others must have been worried about dying.
At this time, the sky was already a little dark, and the mule cart was not as fast as the carriage, and Jiang Mengliang looked anxious.
Just as he was about to put his leg on the mule and run for it, a large wave of men suddenly appeared in front of him.
"What's going on? Why so many people? ”
Jiang Xiaonian and Li Erzhu couldn't help but poke their heads out and look out, there were about a dozen people in front, two people in front of them were riding horses, and the people behind were running.
And behind more than a dozen, there were many people chasing after them, and Jiang Xiaonian estimated that there were thirty or forty people.
"Dad, leave them alone, let's pull over and rush over."
Looking at the people in front of them, they looked like beggars, but they were riding two horses, which was really strange.
Jiang Mengliang was a coward, and a wave of unknown people suddenly appeared in front of him, and his hands trembled a little with fright. Hurriedly pulled over in the mule cart and gave them the avenue in the middle.
I thought that the two groups of people would fight and would not harm the pond fish, but I didn't expect that when I passed by the group of beggars, one of the horseback leaders suddenly waved the knife in his hand and slashed directly at Jiang Mengliang's chest.
Jiang Mengliang instinctively dodged back, but he was still slashed, and a big hole was cut on his chest.
"Daddy!!"
"Brother Meng Liang!"
Li Erzhu's eyes were quick, and he quickly pulled Jiang Mengliang, who was falling backwards, into the mule cart.
The mule was a little frightened and ran forward like crazy, so that the mule cart was not attacked again.
But after running some distance, he stopped and didn't go any further.
And the initiator behind him showed smugness on his face, and shouted at the pursuers behind: "Come and chase!" Kill one of your people when you see it! ”
Xiao Jinhe in the back looked resentful, in order not to startle the snake, they did not ride out on horseback, and finally found the enemy hiding in the shadows, but they chased all the way and did not catch up.
Jiang Xiaonian looked at Jiang Mengliang, who was lying in the mule cart bleeding profusely, and was so anxious that tears fell straight down.
Because Jiang Mengliang dodged, the knife was cut from his left shoulder to his chest, but he still cut a knife three or four inches long.
She hurriedly took out the hemostatic medicine and wound medicine from the space and applied it to Jiang Mengliang's wound.
He pulled out a white cloth and wrapped it tightly around the wound, fixing the powder.
Jiang Mengliang's face was still pale, and he didn't know if it was caused by excessive bleeding or pain.
After treating the wound, Jiang Xiaonian stood up with red eyes and said to Li Erzhu: "You drive the mule cart to the town, send my father to the best hospital in the town, let them use the best medicine, you must revive your father, you don't have to worry about the silver, my mother will find a way." ”
Li Erzhu was very self-blaming in his heart at the moment, if Jiang Mengliang hadn't come to him, such a thing would not have happened at all.
Seeing Jiang Xiaonian about to get out of the car, he hurriedly asked, "Sister Xiaonian, where are you going?" Aren't you going with me? ”
"I have something to do, I'll come to meet you when the time comes, you take my dad away first."
With that, he jumped out of the mule cart.
Li Erzhu looked at Jiang Xiaonian's back as he gradually disappeared into the night, gritted his teeth, and drove the mule cart to the town.
Jiang Xiaonian ran wildly all the way in the direction where the beggar fled, and it didn't take long for him to see two groups of people confronting each other in front of him.
Obviously, the pursuers who were more numerous just now became the side with fewer people, and they seemed to have fallen into the trap of the other party.
Judging from the arrogant words of the person just now, the other party should not be from Hongguo, and it is very likely that it is a soldier of Jinguo who infiltrated Hongguo.
Jiang Xiaonian's eyes were red, she didn't care if the two countries were at war, but she couldn't hurt her father!
