Chapter 148: May He Be Better
Although Zhang Tianchen was very sick physically, he enjoyed it very much in his heart. He ate a full meal, and also used precious medicinal herbs, and the beauty was on the side, not to mention how pleasant it was.
He is a very good talker, and in a few words, he caused Miss Xiao to smile. Miss Xiao has never been far away, and she is very fascinated by the stories he tells of those who go north and south.
Zhang Tianchen told those rural stories vigorously, thinking that he would be able to win the favor of the young lady soon, so that he could blend into the mansion.
Who knew that at this time, a subordinate hurriedly came and said to Miss Xiao: "Miss, it's not good, Mu Gongzi seems to have an accident!" ”
Miss Xiao's face changed suddenly, where could she care about talking to Zhang Tianchen anymore, and went straight home. She heard from people that a woman went to Xiao Mansion to ask for help, and the token in her hand was a silver hairband she had given to Mu Feng. This headband is worn daily and cannot be easily transferred to others.
Zhang Tianchen couldn't help but be a little stunned, thinking to himself who this Mu Gongzi was, and he had ruined his good deeds.
Liang Wei was invited into the hall. Mu Feng did not return to the county on time, and Master Xiao was already worried. Now when I saw Liang Wei coming to speak, my eyelids jumped even more.
After Liang Wei told Master Xiao what happened, Master Xiao's anxious head grew larger after hearing this, and he paced back and forth in the room, muttering: "What should I do...... My wretched nephew......"
Liang Wei knelt down with a pout, fell to the ground and begged, "Please save Master Mu." Master Xiao is a good person with a safe life, and your good deeds are all in the eyes of God. ”
Master Xiao sighed and shook his head again and again: "Don't buckle my hat for me." I have done my best in the matter of the Mu family, and when he was displaced, I took him to the house to raise him like my own son, which is already benevolent and righteous. Now he has offended an official, and I am just an ordinary businessman, with no power or power, how can I compete with him. ”
Liang Wei said in a firm tone: "If Master Xiao can trust the little girl, beg for alms to let me go to the capital and sue the emperor!" I will definitely give Mu Gongzi justice! ”
When he heard the three words of the lawsuit, Master Xiao's face turned pale with fright, and he immediately refused: "No, the people sue the official like a son killing his father." If it is found out that it is my Xiao family who gave you the entanglement, the local officials may not be able to do anything to my Xiao family. I advised the girl not to mention it again, and to get some broken silver and go home quickly. ”
"Daddy!" Miss Xiao, who came from outside, obviously heard part of the conversation, she hurriedly stepped into the living room, and before she could stand still, she knelt down and begged, "Daddy, what happened to Brother Mu Feng?" Please, save him! ”
"Mu Feng has offended the government, and his father is helpless in this matter. Recently, you have been staying in the house honestly and not going out at will. After the wind and waves are calm, Daddy will find you a wishful husband. ”
"I don't want it! Dad, you know, I only have Brother Mu Feng in my heart, and if he has any accidents, I will never live in the world. ”
Miss Xiao's beautiful eyes were full of tears, her tender cheeks were pale, Liang Wei had guessed her appearance countless times on the way here, and her reaction when she heard Mu Feng's news.
or refusing to marry or avoiding suspicion or repentance, she has already conceived of the difficulty of asking for help, and has tried her best to think of countermeasures, but when Miss Xiao came with a plain white oil-paper umbrella, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.
The love mixed with remorse came unexpectedly, she originally thought that she was the only one who was willing to go to the soup for him, but now, Miss Xiao's determination to save people must not be a little less than her.
accidentally caught a glimpse of Miss Xiao's bright and sweet face, and Liang Wei's heart became more and more painful.
In terms of appearance, appearance, talent, and family background, none of her can compare to Miss Xiao, and the only relationship that can be taken on the stage has become a joke.
Under Miss Xiao's bitter pleading, Master Xiao finally agreed to save Mu Feng.
Liang Wei couldn't even be of any use, because Master Xiao took the most convenient path - bribing the county order.
Master Xiao found a substitute for the dead ghost, and it cost almost the entire Xiao family's financial resources to ensure that Mu Feng came out.
Before Mu Feng came out, he was afraid that Miss Xiao would be worried, so he asked the official for a new dress, and he dared to come out after tidying up his appearance.
Miss Xiao cried silently. She could see his steps clearly, it was a weak and extremely reluctant step, obviously wounded in prison.
Miss Xiao hugged him, supported him with another maid on the sedan chair, and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead for him.
He leaned on Miss Xiao's warm embrace, but what he thought in his heart was that it was still raining when Liang Wei was released from prison, and he had injuries on his legs, and the rain was so cold, he didn't know if he would fall ill.
In fact, he has been concerned about her, perhaps from the perspective of a partner, or from the responsibility of a man. He asked, "How is the girl who told you?" ”
Miss Xiao said: "She is a person who knows how to repay her kindness, you saved her in the suburbs, she has always been grateful, and even offered to go to Beijing to repay you in person." I've given her a few taels of silver to get her back home. ”
Liang Wei was afraid that the people in the government would recognize her, so she hid far away, watching Mu Feng and Miss Xiao hugging each other, watching them get into the sedan chair together, and she didn't feel a slight coldness on her face, and raised her hand to brush away the coolness from the corner of her eyes.
They are in love, they are a match made in heaven, and she should be happy for him.
She soon found Zhang Tianchen, who had been leaving marks all the way so that the two of them could go round in an unfamiliar city.
He saw Liang Wei pouring bitter water and talking noisily for a long time.
Liang Wei didn't need to listen to it at all, and replied without a ride, his eyes were dark and full of exhaustion.
Zhang Tianchen saw the difference in her and asked the reason. Liang Wei replied: "The son I met in the suburbs that day was the widow of Mu Fu back then, and we robbed him of his things back then. ”
Zhang Tianchen replied heartlessly: "Even if you don't rob it, others will rob it." The way of this world is to be more ruthless than anyone. Whoever is weak by nature can be deceived. ”
"But I seem to be in love with him." Liang Wei took out a jade bracelet from his arms. Over the years, she was hungry and full, and at the instigation of Zhang Tianchen, she successively lost a lot of jewelry, leaving only a bracelet.
"What's there to worry about, when my brother raises good people, he will open a piece of land on the mountain to be a soil emperor. Isn't it just a son, wait for me to take you captive to be the prime minister of the village, and if you don't obey, you will cut him. ”
Liang Wei shook his head: "Even if you tie him to my side, he doesn't love me, and I might as well die." He's there for the people he loves, and when he's happy, I'm satisfied. I just have to see that he is doing well, it doesn't matter if I am good or not. ”
