Chapter 109: Accidents

After a long while, Zhao Zhi stopped crying, the powder on her face was already so mushy that she couldn't look at it, and her hair was unkempt. She must have come to this nunnery often, and when she called through the door, the old nun brought a basin of water with a wooden basin, and she washed her face, put her hair back together, and sat down again.

After washing off the fat powder to reveal her original appearance, Xiao Dong realized that her face was not very good, there was no blood, and it seemed that she was waxing yellow.

"Are you alright?"

Zhao Zhi nodded: "It's like this after production, it's not very good to say that it's good, and it's not so bad." ”

At this time, giving birth to a child is really a step in the ghost gate for a woman.

"It's best to take care of it seriously, and falling ill is a lifelong thing."

Zhao Zhi smiled reluctantly, with irony: "A life is too long, who knows what tomorrow will bring." I'll take care of the moment now. ”

There is a question buried in Xiao Dong's heart, but now he can't ask this familiar and unfamiliar face.

She and Zhao Zhi had also discussed her future before, what did Zhao Zhi say at that time?

I don't remember it clearly, it seems to be the same sentence, a life is so long, who knows what tomorrow will be.

At that time, she was coquettish, and said that sentence with a little carefree.

Now, the words are still the same, but they seem helpless and indifferent.

If King Jingjun hadn't rebelled, then everything today should be different. Zhao Zhi should not marry to such a far away place and live so aggrieved. When they meet, they will have endless words, how is your husband, how is my family. What you usually eat, what I usually use. There are also things they have done together, places they have been, and people they know together.

But if, are two words that do not make sense.

Because if it's fake, it can't be changed if something has already happened.

Zhao Zhi didn't ask about the capital, how the other people in the Jingjun Palace, the Queen Mother, and the Emperor didn't ask.

Maybe she has a grudge in her heart.

Maybe she didn't know how to ask either.

The capital is her hometown, but she can't go back in her life.

Her relatives are no longer there, and those who are still there are no longer her relatives. Whether it is the emperor or the king of An, they can all be regarded as her enemies.

"Don't talk about that." Zhao Zhi asked her, "How are you doing?" ”

"It's good. After I got married, I lived on the street at the east end of Yongxingfang, not far from the palace. ”

Xiao Dong didn't want to describe his married life too much.

said this in front of Zhao Zhi, even if she didn't want to show off, people who heard it would feel uncomfortable.

"It's so far from the capital to Suizhou, and the road is difficult to walk. By the way, you didn't meet the bandits, did you? ”

Why didn't I encounter it, not only did I encounter it, but I almost couldn't get out. However, Xiao Dong only said: "Fortunately, it was safe along the way." ”

After the incident of Fenglindu, Xiao Dong knew why the Fifth Duke asked them to find Langzhong. Probably this road is not very peaceful and other places have heard of it, if you don't trust Qin Lie, others are coming, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get things done, and I don't know how many twists and turns there will be in the middle.

"The terrain in front of us is dangerous, and it's not very peaceful. The officers and soldiers also went to suppress it, but unfortunately the mountain road was difficult to walk, and I heard that they had not been able to find out where the old nest of those strongmen was for several days, and finally returned in vain. ”

Zhao Zhi couldn't stay long, so she came in a hurry and left in a hurry. Xiao Dong still didn't ask the sentence he wanted to ask in the end.

Xiao Dongmu sent her away, only to notice that she was wearing a dark purple dress, the color looked dull and old in the shade of the tree, just looking at the back, like a lifeless half-old woman who had passed away.

I thought about it before, but after seeing it, my heart was more uncomfortable than before I didn't see it.

Qin Lie waited aside, tearing off the broken leaves under his feet, and the dwarf flower tree on the side of the road was about to make him bald. It can be seen how bored he was just now.

When he saw Xiao Dong, his eyes lit up, and he quickly threw down the leaf he was rubbing in his hand, dusted off his robe, and strode over.

"Are you going back?"

Xiao Dong raised his head and looked at him seriously.

Perhaps it has just experienced such a dull depression that I feel more and more that the simple happiness of the present is so precious.

"Hmm."

She took the initiative to stretch out her hand and grabbed one of Qin Lie's hands: "Don't sit in the sedan chair, let's go back." ”

Qin Lie was a little flattered. Xiao Dong has always been gentle and reserved, and asked her to take the initiative to get close to him outside, which has never happened.

Hao Lie smiled so hard that his eyes were crooked into willow crescents: "Let's go from the north, it's not the same road as when we came just now." ”

The branches of the trees on both sides of the road were densely foliage, and the sunlight penetrated through the tops of the trees, sprinkling small spots of light on the stone slabs, round, pointed, thin, long, and the leaves moved, and those bright points of light also jumped and moved in the ground.

"The winter in Suizhou is not as cold as the capital, and the summer is not as hot as the capital." Qin Lie slowed down his pace, and said while pointing out the scenery on both sides of the road: "Generally, at the end of this month, there will be a few rains, and the weather will be cool. ”

There are local girls carrying baskets walking by, Xiaodong's clothes are completely different from them, although they came out today to dress very simply, it still seems to be delicate and elegant, very eye-catching. The girls did not hide their curiosity, stared at her loudly, and after reading it, she looked at Qin Lie again, and walked over with a giggle, Xiao Dong couldn't understand what they were saying, and asked Qin Lie in a low voice. Qin Lie's smile looked triumphant, and he leaned closer to her ear and said, "They said that you are good-looking, and they also said that the two of us are very compatible." ”

It's really straightforward.

Xiao Dong turned his head to look, and there happened to be a girl who also turned her head to look at her, the two looked at each other, Xiao Dong nodded and smiled, the girl waved her hand, said something crisply, and turned around and ran away.

"What did she say?"

"She calls you little girl."

Xiao Dong looked down at himself: "I should ...... Bigger than her, right? ”

"But you were born petite than them."

That's right, when we passed by just now, those girls were taller than her.

Xiao Dong was a little unwilling, and twisted a handful of the meat on Qin Lie's waist: "People want you to care so much, why don't you catch up and take a few more looks." ”

Qin Lie just smiled, held Xiao Dong's hand tightly, and continued to walk forward. There are also half-grown children who come over to peddle business, pine nuts, fried rice, and sugar gnocchi wrapped in large green leaves. Xiao Dong took a bag of sugar gnocchi, and Qin Lie counted the copper coins to the child. But she wasn't in the habit of eating on the street — even in her previous life. I always feel that my hands are greasy and sticky, and it is too uncomfortable. The bag of sugar gnocchi was taken all the way back to the boat and given to the swallows. She was very happy, took it apart and ate it, and boasted: "Well, this one is crispy and fragrant." Auntie, you can also take me ashore for a walk. ”

Xiao Dong smiled at her and said, "When you embroider that handkerchief, I'll take you there." ”

Yanzi suddenly lowered his face: "Then what should I do...... There are two days left to arrive in Suizhou. ”

Hu asked her, "Did you see it?" How is she now? ”

"Not so ......"

Hu nodded knowingly: "Women don't have the support of their mother's family, and they always have a hard time." Her situation is like this again, I think that the Zhang family didn't drive her out, and she is already a very kind person. ”

Yes, if you change to another family, you are afraid that you will continue to keep this kind of daughter-in-law and cause trouble to your family, you can divorce your wife for any reason.

Swallow whispered, "Shall we go back tomorrow?" ”

To be honest, she is homesick, but when she gets home, what she did will be revealed, and she will be punished. burned down the house and ran out—

In the past, his uncle had scared her, and if he was disobedient, he would lock her up until she got married.

The word marriage is so far away that it seems like it will never come.

The swallow was sullen and held her cheeks to look out, and she was not even in the mood to eat the sugar lumps.

The Hu family has gotten along these days, although she thinks that this little girl is too wild, but she is not bad, and comforts her: "Your aunt is pregnant, your uncle is happy, and he won't be too heavy on you." ”

Yanzi only looked at the people passing by the window, and only heard the second half of Hu's words.

"What is my uncle happy about?"

"Your aunt has a baby."

Swallow blinked: "Then, I'm going to have a younger brother and sister?" When was it born? Is it a man or a woman? ”

"It's going to take another half a year." Hu said: "Whether it is a man or a woman is now only known to the Bodhisattva. But everyone will know about it when they are born. ”

"It's good to have a sister, I'll take her to play."

Hu Shi smiled: "Your uncle is not young, it is better to have a son." Now that he is in the next child, your uncle is in charge of teaching, and when he is old, his son will also use it. ”

The swallow's head shook like a wave drum: "No, my uncle must also like his daughter, the boy is so naughty, having my brother and the two of them is enough for my uncle to have a headache." ”

Hu Shiqiang couldn't help laughing: "You also know that your uncle has a headache." ”

Knowing is knowing, but they are still naughty.

Swallow was a little embarrassed: "Actually...... I also tried to persuade my brother to come, but they wouldn't listen to me. Hey, if my aunt has a daughter, she must look like her, if she is like my uncle......"

What she said was very reasonable, and even Hu Shi nodded in agreement.

Xiao Dong looked at the old and the young to discuss this issue, and sat down with a slight smile. They didn't start a group, they called vegetables from the shore, and Xiaodong felt that there was an eggplant that tasted very good, so he moved a few more chopsticks. Hongjing came in and called Hu out, and after a while, Hu came in from outside, his face was a little solemn: "County Lord, there is something troublesome." ”

Xiao Dong glanced at Yanzi and stood up: "Go over there and say." ”

They stood still behind the screen, and Hu whispered, "Zhao Zhi is here, holding a child, and saying that he wants to see you." ”

"Holding a baby?"

"Yes."

"Who else?"

"No one else."

This thing is so unusual, Xiao Dong said, "Let her come on the boat, I'll ask her what is going on first." ”
