Chapter 539: To see people in life, and to see corpses in death
Xiao Wu went out, and after He Mai cleaned up the small stove room, he breathed a long sigh of relief and went upstairs.
The guest room was on the third floor, and after He Mai went upstairs, she saw that Liulang and Yan Xing were discussing the itinerary for the next few days, so she turned around and went to Zhong Xiangsi's house.
Compared with discussing things such as the itinerary, the man's family is more adept, and He Mai is also more willing to pack up with Zhong Xiangsi, sew and mend clothes and pants, and chatter about the whispers of the mother and daughter.
"Where is Little Five?" Zhong Xiangsi glanced up at He Mai and asked.
"The candy fell on the horse, and she went to get it." He Mai gently sat down next to Zhong Xiangsi, "Mother, how are you doing lately?" ”
Zhong Xiangsi said nonchalantly: "It's very good!" Okay, ask me what this is for? I've been around you all the time, and you can see it, I'm fine, haven't I? ”
He Mai said: "Mother, I heard my father say that when you were in the White Night Barracks, you had to follow Lang Zhong at all times. We've been in the wind and snow for a while, are you really okay? ”
"What's the matter?" Zhong Xiangsi looked at He Mai with a smile, "My mother had some physical conditions before, but before she came to Yuan Fengcheng, she was almost cured." You, don't worry about your mother, take care of yourself, just add less trouble to your mother. ”
He Mai saw that a fine line had appeared in the corner of Zhong Acacia's eyes, and the broken hair between the sideburns didn't seem to be thicker than it was a while ago, and he felt a little guilty in his heart, "Mother, when we get to the western suburbs, Liulang and I will definitely honor you well, and we won't let you worry about it anymore." ”
"Do you think your mother is old?" Zhong Xiangsi put down the clothes he had sorted out in his hand, raised his hand and touched the corners of his eyes and cheeks.
"Mother, you're not old, you're not yet forty years old, what's old?" He Mai hurriedly said.
"It's almost ...... It's almost time to be confused. Zhong Xiangsi looked very open, and smiled indifferently, "Mother's life, although it is not a day of fine clothes and food, but with your father's side, she is also a lady, and she does not worry about food and clothing, and she is chic for a lifetime." Mai'er, a woman's life, if she can find a man who loves her, even if her life is hard, it will be worth it. Mai'er, although you have had miserable tribulations in the first half of your life, you have probably given you an excellent Liulang, which can be regarded as God's mercy. ”
Zhong Xiangsi's warm hand touched Hemai's soft hair, "You remember, from now on, your father, mother, and even Mu He will be worse than your Liulang, and the person closest to you will always be your man." ”
He Mai's heart was shocked, "Mother, who said that?" You're just as important as your dad! ”
"Silly boy, we always have to leave before you." Zhong Xiangsi shook his head with a smile, "What my mother said to you is about experience. In the future, when Mu He grows up, you have to tell her this as it is. However, the premise of this must be to find a good man, if you encounter that indiscriminate gangster, you as a father and mother have to come forward and clean up the scourge for your daughter. ”
He Mai was dumbfounded: "Mother, it's too early to say this, how old is Mu He......"
"Twenty years, but in the blink of an eye, ......" Zhong Xiangsi touched his beautiful and delicate face, and some beauties sighed in the twilight, "When I first married your father, I was just like you, a simple-minded girl, I didn't think about anything, even after giving birth to you, I still didn't grow up much...... That's it......"
Zhong Xiangsi didn't want to show a sad scene in front of her daughter, and looked at the dark and gloomy sky outside, "It's a young year, why didn't you hear any movement outside and set off firecrackers?" By the way, what about Little Five? Why haven't you come up yet? ”
"Yes, why hasn't Xiao Wu come up yet?" He Mai was stunned.
Their mother and daughter chattered in the house for a while, and they also had time for a stick of incense, even if they had time to drive a horse to the town to buy a stove candy, why hadn't Xiao Wu come back yet?
Zhong Xiangsi frowned, walked quickly to the window, lowered his head and glanced down at the street facing the street, and then, his face changed suddenly!
"Mai'er, let's go!" Zhong Xiangsi grabbed He Mai's arm and dragged her to the door.
The rain of arrows rushed into the room with a fierce firelight, and the beds, tables, tables, and floors ...... In an instant, it was filled with burning arrows.
The mother and daughter reacted quickly, and when they rushed out, they saw Yan Xing and Liulang in the next room also rushing out.
"Officers and soldiers are coming!" Zhong Xiangsi shouted.
"The main entrance is full of ambushes, we have to get out of the backyard!" Yan Xing commanded in a hurry in the chaos.
As soon as the family of four walked towards the staircase, they saw a group of officers and soldiers who rushed up to them, and the leading officers and soldiers shouted: "The criminals Yan Xing, Chang An and their families will be arrested quickly!" ”
Yan Xing's cold face was angry, and with the power of thunder, the heavy foot that flew up swept towards the railing at the staircase.
The railing snapped and smashed completely into the group of officers and soldiers.
"Let's go!" Yan Xing let out a loud shout and ran with his family to the stairs on the other side.
The officers and soldiers behind him quickly chased after him, and He Mai heard the officers and soldiers behind him shouting: "If you want to see people alive and die to see corpses, chase me!" ”
Zhong Xiangsi also heard this, and scolded with hatred: "The little emperor has a long ability, it seems that he can't get along with us!" ”
"Acacia, now is not the time to talk about this, Mai'er and Liulang, you go to the stable, your mother and I are blocking the pursuers, if you can grab two horses, come to the back door to pick me up and your mother, if not, we will meet at the crossroads!"
When He Mai felt that this was too dangerous and really inappropriate, he saw Liulang retreat from He Mai and Zhong Xiangsi, and said without saying anything: "My father and I are blocking the chasing soldiers, He Mai, mother, you are careful!" ”
"Go!" Yan Xing drank.
The front and back of the post station were already surrounded by officers and soldiers, and even the backyard was surrounded by crossbowmen, aiming arrows at every exit of the post station.
Finding the wanted Yan Xing and Rokuro on the third floor, a large number of crossbowmen aimed their arrows at the third floor, ready to release their arrows at any time.
Yan Xing grabbed an officer and soldier in front of him, and shouted at the window on the third floor to attract attention: "Yan someone is here!" If you want to take my life, go up! ”
He Mai, who went down to the backyard on the first floor, sweated for Yan Xing, "Dad, this is too dangerous!" ”
But she also knew in her heart that if she didn't, if she attracted everyone's attention, let her and Zhong Xiangsi arrive at the stable safely?
Zhong Xiangsi's face darkened, and she was naturally extremely worried about Yan Xing's comfort, but at this time, where was there any other choice than to lead the horse and escape as soon as possible?
The mother and daughter sneaked into the stable and saw four or five officers and soldiers surrounding the stable, but there was no shadow of Xiao Wu.
Zhong Xiangsi took out the soft sword from his arms, used the hilt of the sword as a weapon, and rushed into it like a dragon, knocking four or five officers and soldiers unconscious in an instant.
Zhong Xiangsi took two horses, and when he saw He Mai looking up at the third floor of the post station, he didn't leave for a long time, so he hurriedly shouted, "Mai'er! ”
