In the room, Sister He Xiu bent over, carried the child on her back, and sidestepped the blade of the kitchen knife, and the disemboweled, broken belly fish scales on the board.

Alas, this fish is dead and not the freshest, I hope that Lang Zhong will not mind.

She was very quick with her hands and feet, and in a moment she had already packed up the fish and salted it in wine. It just so happened that the baby on her back woke up and cried. She hurriedly cleaned up the cutting board, untied the child, sat on the small bench next to her, put the child on her lap, untied the placket, and let the child take the nipple.

When the child was quiet, she sat there in a daze, a little dazed.

She was originally the daughter of a small family in Hejia Village, because she was a little bit beautiful, her parents were happy to see her, and they were determined to marry her "well", and the bride price was really greedy. After coming and going, she was already over sixteen years old, and the family still couldn't find a "buyer" for her, and when she turned around and looked at her again, she was cold-eyed.

She does all the work at home, washing clothes by the river, carrying water at the well, and unintentionally falling in love with someone. And that person also likes her. That man is willing to work hard and sincere, but his parents are dead, his family is poor, not to mention marriage, if the intimacy between the two is discovered, I am afraid that there will be no place for that man in this village. The man was helpless, determined to go out into the world and make a fortune and come back to ask her to be a mother-in-law. And Sister He Xiu gave him her body in order to let him walk with peace of mind. But who knows, only that once, she has his flesh and blood.

Once the lover is gone, there is no news, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. And she hid it until three months, and she couldn't hide the fact that she was pregnant. Under the anger of the family, they beat her to death and forced her to tell who the adulterer was. She didn't say anything, and ran away in panic. If the family knows that the child's father can't squeeze any oil and water, their mother and son will not survive.

Fleeing to the river, she was overtaken by those men. When the sticks and the poles were thrown together, and the foul language and spit stars were flying, she curled up on the ground, protected her belly, and looked up, and saw a man sitting by the river.

"It's him! The child is his! ”

From that day on, she shouted out the seven words in a hurry, burning her conscience all the time. The man heard her cries for help. He came over and stopped the stick for her, and in order to protect the flesh and bones in her belly, she grabbed him by the sleeve and shouted those words!

That man, without opening his mouth or making a confession, pushed away two or three strong men. Pull her to your side. The man didn't mind that she would take revenge, and he didn't know how many sticks he had suffered, so he beat all those people so that he didn't dare to go any further, and he gave her a silver tael to "redeem" her from her biological parents.

Even, after all this, the man came over and knelt on the ground. She wept bitterly, begging him for forgiveness, and stretched out her hand. The man's hands were cold, and there was not a trace of flesh left. The bones hurt.

She had already been beaten to the point of fetal gas at that time, and if he hadn't rented a house for her to settle down, extended medical advice, and sheltered from the wind and rain, she would still not have survived today.

Regardless of his past suspicions, he saved the lives of their mother and son. And all she can do is take care of his three meals, add or subtract clothes, wash and sew such trivial chores, and let him bear the notoriety of "adulterer" in vain. It cannot be eluted. This kindness is to be a cow and a horse for a lifetime, and she can't pay it back.

She wanted to erect an immortal tablet for him. A lifetime of worship, but ...... He couldn't speak, and she couldn't read.

Until now, she didn't know his name.

Sister He Xiu untied the child's swaddling clothes, changed his dry diaper, and re-wrapped it. In his sleep, the child is laughing.

If this Lang Zhong can cure his illness, even if it is to ask her body for her life, there is nothing wrong with it.

Sister He Xiu suddenly sighed in her heart. The gentleman who seemed to be very capable had already been sick for a long time, but she did not serve tea, which was too lazy. Thinking of this, she quickly washed her hands, found the most decent cup at home, poured two cups of cold boiled water and sent them over, and apologized shyly: "I'm really sorry, there is no tea at home." Sir, you drink saliva to moisten your throat first, and the meal will be fine in a while. ”

With that, she withdrew, leaving the two in the room to continue staring wide-eyed.

――――――――――――――

As soon as she came and left, Feng Jinjie was in the right place, and seized the opportunity to immediately ask: "Master Lu, I can't imagine that in a few years, you will marry another Mrs. Ru." The person I was looking for became two, and I found out the whereabouts of the adults several times, but I thought I was looking for the wrong one. ”

He didn't know that Lu Dongli and Sister He Xiu were not a real couple, but he was depressed, and his tone couldn't help but be a little ridiculed. He wanted to grab the stick and knock open the elm head of the man in front of him. Since you are no longer afraid that your identity will affect people, and you can even do it with fake couples, why do you still refuse to see Wanzhen, and let the two people be separated by thousands of miles, hard and desolate?

Even Lu Dongli's heart was like ashes, and after listening to Feng Jinjie's words, his face still changed slightly. Some embarrassment, but also some guilt.

He didn't really understand how he could have walked through at that time. At that time, he was in a state of confusion, he didn't know how to hide from the wind and rain, he was hungry, cold, thirsty, and didn't know how to eat, and the only thing he could remember was that everywhere he went, he had to find the best local wine to drink. Just because he vaguely remembers that he once promised a person that he would live, and that he would drink all the world's best wine in his place.

It's just that some things are already deeply rooted in his blood, just as natural as breathing, and there is no need to think about it. His mind was numb and sluggish, and he didn't actually listen to the insults and beatings, and Sister He Xiu's screams for help. But before he realized what he had done, his body instinctively reacted and stood in the way of those people.

As for the woman blaming him, it took him a long time before he came back to his senses slightly. But no matter how degraded he was, he finally couldn't see death without help.

When the matter was over, the woman wept bitterly and kept kowtowing to him. Crying so sad, desperate and ashamed, he was about to walk away, but finally walked over.

She is pregnant. Such a way to cry...... If he leaves her alone, the lives of this mother and son will be silently gone.

Sister He Xiu would rather be instructed and abused than stay away from the village. He rented another house nearby to house her. Originally, it was too long to wander. He had forgotten how to get along with people, and he was completely unable to adapt to this seemingly stable life. He thought that when Sister He Xiu's injury healed and the fetus was stable, he would leave her a little money and leave.

But...... As the days passed, he gradually realized how difficult it would be for a woman who had no support and a bad reputation, pregnant with a child, to live in the eyes of contempt and contempt around her. But she had no husband to protect her. Without the love of a man, he withstood all the pressure alone, did everything possible to protect his children, endured all the contempt and humiliation, but still insisted on staying in a place where he could connect with his beloved.

Night after night, the woman who forced a smile during the day. In the nightmare, I cried and called a name over and over again. Lu Dongli realized that when a woman is pregnant, she misses her husband so much and needs her man so much.

The effeminate woman, dragging

legs, one by one, walked to the door and sat on the threshold. Looking at himself from afar, he did not move for a long time. Lu Dongli finally clearly understood that it turned out that a woman was waiting for her lover alone. It feels so bleak, so hard.

He began to miss Su Wanzhen irrepressibly and his wife.

I miss the woman who smiled and packed for him when he went to the front line to go to the border, passed the book for thousands of miles, and never reported good news but not bad news.

―

In the capital that he couldn't protect and couldn't take care of, he gave birth alone, raised his son alone, and leaned on the door every day to see him return.

Thinking of Su Wanzhen. I felt that the heartache was irrepressible, and I knew that in this life, she was so much.

remembered Su Wanzhen...... How could he abandon the poor woman in front of him.

He stayed. Stayed in this tiny. seems to belong to his home, staying with this woman who has actually been with him for more than a month, but he has never been familiar with her.

Sister He Xiu has always insisted that it was Lu Dongli who saved her mother and son, however, as Feng Jinjie later asserted, in fact, it was Sister He Xiu who saved Lu Dongli by mistake.

Since he rented a house for Sister He Xiu to live in, how could he, a benefactor, stay outside every day and let the wind and rain blow? Do you want a pregnant woman with a wound to come to him all over the world? He doesn't go home to sleep at night, can Sister He Xiu sleep? If he doesn't move his chopsticks first when eating, can Sister He Xiu eat with peace of mind? He drank even less wine. If he is drunk outside, do you want to let Sister He Xiu, who has a big belly, drag him home.

If it weren't for Sister He Xiu, according to Lu Donglian's original way of ruining himself, he would not have survived the day when Feng Jinjie found him.

――――――――――――――――

Just as the water brought by Sister He Xiu in front of him, Lu Dongli wet his fingers and quickly typed on the table.

"Master Lu doesn't need to mention the three words, the name of the road guide I am using now is Xue Yongze. Sister Xiu was saved by me unintentionally, and the husband and wife are commensurate, just for convenience. ”

"I see?" Feng Jinjie smiled slightly: "Mr. Xue is in trouble to save the beauty, it must be a good story, please tell me in detail." ”

Lu Dongli really didn't understand, it stands to reason that Sister He Xiu's affairs have nothing to do with the person in front of him at all. I can't speak, and it's really inconvenient to explain things, but since this person can find himself without a clue, he wants to come...... should also have the ability to find the person Sister Xiu is looking for.

He thought for a moment, and finally wrote on the table again. As concise as possible, Sister He Xiu was pregnant before marriage, and later her lover He Yong returned to her hometown and returned to the village, but she misheard people's words, thinking that Sister He Xiu did not abide by women's morals and married a foreigner, and the person was nowhere to be found, so she left gloomily.

After a long time, Sister He Xiu, who lived in a neighboring village, knew that her lover had returned, but the two missed it within easy reach, and she was still regarded as a woman with a negative heart and a watery Yang Hua, and she fainted on the spot. When she woke up, she cried to death, and when she wiped away her tears, she stood up, but she bowed down in front of Lu Dongli again, this time, begging him to take her to find her lover.

She has a big belly, and no one knows what kind of official He Yong is and where He Yong, who came and goes like a dragonfly, but she still has to go to him.

Feng Jinjie watched him write and write, his brows gradually wrinkled, and finally said suddenly: "This matter is really Lu ...... Mr. Xue's is not. Since Xiu'er has a mountain alliance and a sea oath, you should be called brother and sister, why are you called husband and wife? searched all the way, that is, found someone, how is the reputation of a daughter's family called? When you meet a lover, how can you say it clearly? ”

You two brothers and sisters have been commensurate for so long, why have you made me depressed for so long!

Lu Dongli has bitterness and can't speak. Is he willing to be commensurate with the woman next to him? However, when they lived near Hejia Village, everyone recognized the identity of the two of them as adulterers and adulteresses, and in order to avoid causing trouble to He Yong when they returned to the village in the future, Sister He Xiujie also acquiesced in others' identification of their identities. After leaving Hejia Village, he wanted to change his name, but he and Sister He Xiu couldn't communicate, besides, he only had a person Lu Dongjue gave him at the beginning, if he didn't attach Sister He Xiu to his name as a wife, where would he go to prepare relevant identity documents for her? This way through the state, renting a house, without the name of the couple, there will be countless inconveniences.

Fortunately, there is no need for him to say this, the clever person of the Wind Festival is angry, and he should have understood it, and he patted his chest with a smile and said, "Don't worry!" Now that I have found you, I will do it for you, so that you can rest assured. It's not a big deal to find someone, he has a name, and he knows that he is a new little military attaché, and it is not difficult to find this person by using the relationships left by Feng Gongzi before. He Xiu, she and you don't want to be husband and wife anymore, I will take care of the other paperwork for her. In the future, I will be with you, and I will hire one or two servant women to help, and the suspicion of this lonely man and widow will be gone early, so that I will find someone in the future, so that there will be no suspicion between the husband and wife. ”

He said a few words and arranged to stop, Lu Dongli was also comfortable and relieved, and went to a big heart disease. Since Sister He Xiu gave birth to a child, he has been a little uncomfortable, going out during the day every day and coming back very late, trying to minimize the time spent with Sister He Xiu, also for her good. In the past, Sister He Xiu was pregnant with a child, and it was easy to remove suspicion, but now that the child is born, if the confinement is also full, the two get along for a long time, and in the future, they will find a lover.

Now that this person has made arrangements, the hope of finding someone is just around the corner, and Sister Xiu's innocent reputation can be worry-free, so I feel relieved.

Looking at Lu Donglian's relieved appearance, Feng Jinjie didn't feel funny, this stupid person, no matter what he looked like, what he thought in his heart would always be someone else.

"Mr. Xue. I am entrusted by Mr. Feng, I must protect Mr. thoroughly, and plan for Mr., I don't know where Mr. wants to go in the future, and what are Mr. plans for the future? ”

Lu Dongli was silent. After a long time, he wrote on the table again: "Leave Zhao State." ”

Feng Jin nodded: "It's not difficult. Although the imperial court forbids the sea, I have a way to contact those private ships. It's just that there is no need to leave in a hurry, before leaving Zhao Kingdom, we still have to meet with the two of us first. ”

Lu Dongli's face changed slightly, and his fingers froze on the table.

Feng Jinjie immediately explained very thoughtfully: "Naturally, it is Mrs. Lu and Mr. Lu. ”

He didn't look at Lu Donglian's gloomy and sad eyes, he just smiled and patted Lu Dongxuan's hand comfortingly, completely forgetting to pay attention to his too close movements, whether they were too natural.

However, when Lu Dongli heard the words Mrs. Lu, he was also moved, and he didn't notice that the posture of Feng Jinjie at this moment was not at all like a stranger who was entrusted to come to help.
