Chapter 8: The Dead Man's Mother
Her husband sat in a wheelchair and ordered, "Go get my mask." ”
The mask was fastened on the table, and she picked it up casually.
I don't want to have a picture frame under the mask.
In the framed black-and-white photograph is a teenager in a military uniform.
The palm-sized goose egg face, the facial features are delicate as carving.
The lines of the face are soft like a woman, without a trace of edges.
Dai's eyebrows are crooked, but her eyes are very resolute.
Look at the face shape that looks like him!
Wrong!
This is her husband himself.
She looked shocked and looked at him mechanically, "Why do you have a face in your photo?" ”
Suddenly, she thought of the time when she had "flowers and candles in the cave room" last night.
She saw the corners of his lips raised under his mask.
This guy obviously has a face~
Otherwise, when you are born, you will have to scare the midwife to death.
Then the whole town knew.
But no one has ever said that the youngest son of the Wu warlord family is a faceless person.
"I'm afraid you won't recognize me, so I'll have to make it look like when we first met." He took the mask and put it on, bowed his head and said, "Listen to the matchmaker, you originally didn't want to marry me." ”
Chu Wanxi was stunned for a moment, "I didn't know that the little young master of the Wu family was you." ”
Could it be that his faceless appearance was deliberately "conjured" to show her?
That's still really "heart"!
There was a "bump", and another gunshot rang out outside.
The black leopard who is known for his short temper, Wu Sanye is impatient outside.
I'm afraid that if I wait any longer, I will shoot and "kill" in.
Chu Wanxi hurriedly pushed the wheelchair out and opened the door.
The cowardly eyes inadvertently touched the eyes of the warlord Wu.
When Warlord Wu saw her, he thought for a few moments, "This is the girl from the Chu family who you fancy and has to marry home, called ...... Chu ......"
"Chu Wanxi." Her husband said.
Warlord Wu raised his eyebrows and said with a big grin: "What are you kidding, how can a poor girl have such a name, people are clearly called Chu Daxi." I have a good memory......"
"Dad, her name is Chu Wanxi now." He said with a smile.
Warlord Wu is obviously a general who survived the rain of bullets, and he is full of iron and blood.
In front of her husband, her momentum weakened, "That name was really not good before, and it's good to change it." ”
Chu Wanxi pushed the wheelchair, and the father and son chatted all the way.
"What's the patrol looking for me?" Her husband asked.
Warlord Wu's eyes hesitated, "I heard that a female corpse was fished out of the river. ”
"What are you doing with me? The people under your command are really getting more and more unreliable. His voice was cold and frightening.
Warlord Wu sighed and pinned the gun in his hand to his waist, "Those people in the patrol room are the rabble that the officials left by the former county lord have changed their establishment, but they are not my people." ”
Her husband's tone was tough and questioning, "Then I don't dare to provoke you easily." ”
"The people in the town say...... The person who said that he caught it may be your mother. When Warlord Wu said this, his eyes were a little gray.
Her husband was very unhappy and said, "What should I do?" Recognize the corpse? When she died, I wasn't even born. ”
As soon as he said this, he had already arrived in the hall where he was meeting.
"Yo, isn't this a little master? I haven't seen you in a long time, how's it going? Are your bones better? "The man in the patrol uniform came over and asked for warmth.
Her husband didn't even raise his head, he lowered his head and played with his hands, "I can't die for the time being, cough cough...... Ahem......"
In front of people, he looks like a sick seedling.
The lips are white and almost transparent, and when I cough, I feel like I have to cough through my lungs.
"This is the young lady, you are only sixteen, and you are in your prime. It's good to find someone to be happy, to dispel the bad luck, maybe the body bones will be good. The man said.
He slowly raised his head, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, "The fortune teller said that I can't be cured of this disease, and I won't live more than twenty, and foreign doctors can't do anything." Marrying a woman is the top? ”
"Heng'er, how did you talk to Lord Patrol." Warlord Wu had obviously been conniving at her husband's confrontation with the patrol, but he still pretended to ask.
The patrol smiled and said, "It's okay, it's normal for young people to be young and vigorous." ”
When he said the last few words, there was a coldness in his tone.
