Fifty-fourth
Compared with the eagerness and excitement of Wen Qing and Cha Yu to see each other, Su Nianchi and Mu Tang, the pair of master and servant, were obviously much colder.
Others only thought that it was because Mu Tang had just entered the villa and had not served Su Nianchi for a long time, but in fact, the time she spent with Su Nianchi was not shorter than the time that Cha Yu had with Wen Qing.
It's just that Su Nianchi is cold by nature, and Mu Tang is also a cautious person, and he will not easily show his feelings to others.
What's more, after many years of companionship, the emotional tacit understanding is self-evident, and one look is enough.
Over there, Wen Qing and the tea stall held hands and talked, crying and laughing.
After confirming the surrounding environment, he began to whisper to Su Nianchi about the various things in the Tibetan Sword Villa for a period of time.
"In this way, Mrs. Wen is very sick." Su Nianchi groaned.
"Yes," Mu Tang nodded, "The onset of the illness was sudden, the illness was severe, and the cause was unknown." ”
"Did the old lady have any abnormalities before he was sick?"
"Someone came to look for it secretly, and after this person went, the old lady couldn't afford to get sick."
"Can you identify this person?"
"I'm a step late, he's already been victimized. Later, I ordered the Xuangong Shadow Detective to investigate, this person is just an ordinary farmer in a foreign country, his family is dead, and he is seriously ill, and his life is not long. A few months ago, he suddenly left his hometown for some reason, and no one in the same village knew where he went, so he must have come to the Tibetan Sword Villa to see Mrs. Wen. ”
Su Nianchi said lightly: "If he is just an ordinary farmer, why did Mrs. Wen meet him?" He was already seriously ill and had a short life, so why couldn't anyone even tolerate these days? ”
Mu Tang lowered his eyes and said: "But judging from the news tracked down by the shadow detectives, this person has lived in the village for decades, married a wife and had children, worked honestly, and is familiar with his neighbors, and there is nothing suspicious. ”
"He's lived in the village for generations?"
According to the villagers, this man had a rough life, he was sold several times when he was young, and he was exiled from the famine. It's just that the years are too long, and he is just an unknown person, so it's really difficult to verify. ”
"Continue to investigate, the old lady's illness must be inseparable from this person's experience in the first half of his life."
"Yes." Mu Tang lowered his eyes and answered.
Su Nianchi has been with her master and servant for many years, how can she not see her desire to speak and stop, and asks, "What's wrong?" ”
Mu Tang hurriedly shook his head, "It's nothing, I just thought that Miss would care more about the whereabouts of the Tiansheng Water Scroll and the Tibetan Wind Sword Spectrum." ”
Su Nianchi was silent for a moment and spoke: "I naturally care, but it's a little different." ”
Originally, she only wanted to win the Tiansheng Water Scroll or the Tibetan Wind Sword Spectrum, so as to return to the palace to serve the public, solve her father's worries, and strengthen the momentum of the Xuan Palace.
But now she has met Wen Shu. I only hope to find the treasure of the Tiansheng Water Scroll and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty King Mausoleum as soon as possible, so as to protect the foundation of the Northern Xuanxuan Palace.
After that, she can complete her mission, and she can unload the burden on her shoulders and just be an ordinary woman, living in seclusion with her beloved, and living carefree.
"What's the difference?" Makutang was puzzled.
Su Nianchi smiled faintly and was about to speak, but suddenly remembered something, "Master Wen said in his letter that Mrs. Wen's illness has improved, and you still used the words 'seriously ill'. ”
Mu Tang said lightly: "Master Wen just doesn't want you to worry about rushing, but there will be an accident." ”
"How is the old lady doing now?
"I'm not a close person, and I know it's very bad, but I'm just struggling to support the time."
Su Nianchi Huo Ran turned around, Mu Tang has always been steady and proper, and never said anything, if she said so, it would mean that Mrs. Wen was really seriously ill.
"Miss?" Mu Tang was surprised, not understanding why she left suddenly.
Su Nianchi didn't explain too much, and hurried out to find Wen Shu.
I happened to meet him and came to look for her.
"Ah Jing said, grandmother's illness has not improved, I will leave immediately, he will stay with you, and you will come back after dawn."
There was a tension and anxiety in his eyes.
He already knew.
"I'll go with you."
He was silent for a moment, and then he had made up his mind, "Okay. ”
He can't delay any longer, the next few days will inevitably be a non-stop rush day and night, Wen Qing may not be able to bear it, not to mention, there are tea stalls who don't know martial arts. But he knew she could.
She is the only person in this world who can stand side by side with him and face everything, and she is also the only person in this world who wants to bring to his grandmother and get her approval and blessing.
It's hard work, and it's not worth mentioning.
Wen Jing personally led his beloved horse "Chasing the Wind" to Wen Shu, and ordered someone to choose another good horse from the accompanying horses for Nianchi.
"Big brother, I know that you are concerned about your grandmother, 'chasing the wind' is very fast, this is also a good horse in a million, you and Sister Yi will take the first step, and I will take them to arrive."
Wen Shu didn't shirk it, and patted his younger brother on the shoulder, "Okay, I'll leave it to you." ”
Wen Qing heard the sound at this time, and also rushed out, and asked when she saw this, "Big brother, are you going to leave at this time?" It's so late at night. ”
Wen Shu said: "The eldest brother will go first, the second brother will stay with you, and you will leave tomorrow." ”
Wen Qing thought for a moment and changed her face, "But grandmother is not in a good condition?" ”
Although she is simple, she is pure and good because she is not deeply involved in the world, and she is by no means dull and stupid.
Wen Shu and Wen Jing glanced at each other, and were about to speak, but Wen Qing opened her mouth categorically: "I'll go with you, tea stalls, quickly, pack your luggage." ”
Wen Shu glanced at his sister's obviously haggard little face soaked in wind and frost, and persuaded: "Qing'er, the eldest brother will not stop to repair on the way, you can't stand it, just rush back as soon as possible with the second brother." ”
Wen Qing pursed her lower lip and said firmly: "Big brother, I know that you miss your grandmother, and so do I." I am also the blood of the Wen family, why can't I bear the hardships you have suffered? I don't have to rest, so I'm going to set out with you now. But 'chasing the wind' is fast, you don't have to wait for us, go back to see your grandmother first, your grandmother must be looking forward to you." ”
The two Wen brothers were a little surprised that their sister, who had always been delicate, could say such a thing, and Wen Jing couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Qing'er, you have grown up. ”
Then it turned out to be a parallel day, reluctant to give up day and night.
When I arrived at the Tibetan Sword Villa, it was a late night a few days later.
When the night guard outside the gate of the Tibetan Sword Villa saw Wen Shu and Su Nianchi, he exclaimed, "Why did Gongzi and Miss Zhuang come back at this hour, why didn't they see the second son, Miss and the other attendants?" ”
Wen Shu said: "They will arrive later, where is the old lady now, but he is still in the Sanqian Courtyard?" ”
"Yes," the guard replied, "and the little one will let people go to the owner and the lady, and the son is back." ”
Wen Shu nodded casually, not carelessly, and walked directly to the Sanqian Courtyard without stopping.
Su Nianchi paused slightly, and said to the guard: "It's already four watches now, don't disturb the rest of the owner and his wife, and wait until dawn to report it." ”
The guard knew that she was valuable, and that she was right, so he saluted, "Yes." ”
Su Nianchi nodded slightly, quickened his pace, and kept up with Wen Shu.
The three relocation courtyards no longer have the appearance of being closed and locked.
In the hospital, there are many fewer old people and many new people.
Mrs. Wen fell asleep, as if she was unconscious.
Jing Yang, whose beard and hair are all white, seems to be much older than the last time they met.
He didn't leave for a moment, guarding the side of Mrs. Wen's collapse.
Seeing Wen Shu and Su Nianchi, Jing Yang slowly got up, "You're finally back." ”
Before Wen Su and the others could speak, Jing Yang's face sank, and he commanded, "Come on, block the gate of the courtyard, from this moment on, no one will be allowed to enter or leave the Sanqian Courtyard." ”
