Chapter 104: Late-Night Narrative

Regarding the second aunt Li's worries, Lan Yi naturally knew why.

She shook her head affirmatively: "Second aunt, I'm fine, I've been tied up and thrown in the carriage after planting the drug, but the amount of drug in the baby is large, and I just woke up." ”

Li Shi breathed a sigh of relief, touched the baby's little face, and hurriedly ordered: "These gang should suffer a thousand knives, and they will also kill such a small child!" Hungry for a day, right? For the second family, you go to cook two bowls of poached eggs, and for the third family, you go to boil water and bring it in. ”

Everyone moved when they heard the sound, Li Shi took Lan Yi's arm and looked at the scars all over her body, distressed but also glad, when a woman encounters this kind of thing, it is a great luck to be able to come back, and it is nothing to suffer some flesh injuries.

"Thanks to the second boy of the Zhou family this time, we have to thank them when we go back."

Lan Yi nodded, comforted Yu'er, who was hugging her, and fed the two children some warm water after Liu came in.

The baby was conscious, his movements were fine, and he was hungry after a day of eating, Chen fed him a poached egg, and Lan Yi and Yu'er also ate some. Liu then boiled hot water, bathed the two children, and placed them on the kang.

Lan Yi looked at the three Dafu who were sleeping on the side, and said, "Second aunt, two brothers and sisters, you go back and rest, it's not too early." ”

Li shook his head: "I'm here tonight, the second family, the third family, you take the children back." ”

Lan Yi persuaded: "Second aunt, it'll be fine when we come back, the second uncle hasn't eaten yet, you go back to cook for his old man, don't be in a hurry anymore." ”

Li Shi thought about it and nodded: "Eat the poached eggs and go to sleep, I'll come over tomorrow morning." ”

The three of them picked up the three sleeping children, and Liu asked uneasily: "Sister-in-law, do you really need us to accompany you here?" ”

Lan Yi smiled and nodded: "It's okay." ”

After everyone left, Lan Yi coaxed the two children to sleep, after all, Zhou Weiji was still waiting to hear about her and the enemy's family, and it was not good to make the family wait for a long time.

The baby's medicinal power was still there, and he fell asleep soon, and Yu'er hugged Lan Yi and choked for a while and fell asleep.

Lan Yi put on a clean coat, endured the pain and went to the kitchen to cook a big pot of duck soup rice noodles, beat four poached eggs, and when the fragrance wafted, Zhou Weiji knocked on the open wooden door of the kitchen.

He had freshened up and changed into clean clothes.

Lan Yi turned around and smiled: "Brother Tuesday came in and sit, I cooked some rice noodles, and the second brother made do with it." ”

Zhou Weiji nodded, and Lan Yi turned around to serve rice noodles. Because the right hand is not good for rope, and the left hand is not used to using chopsticks, I did not fill a bowl of rice noodles after clamping it several times.

Seeing this, Zhou Weiji walked up to her: "Let me come." ”

With that, he reached out and pulled out a pair of chopsticks from the side, neatly served two bowls of rice noodles, and brought them to the table.

The two of them did not speak, but each bowed his head to eat. Lan Yi was full after eating half a bowl, but Zhou Weiji returned the bowl a few times, and after drinking a pot of rice noodles and soup, he embarrassedly wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand: "Brother and sister smiled." ”

"Is there enough food for the second brother? Do you want me to cook some more? Although she knew that the occasion was not suitable, Lan Yi couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth, this Tuesday brother is big, has a lot of strength, and has a lot of appetite.

Zhou Weiji shook his head.

Lan Yi looked at the dishes and chopsticks on the table, this place is not a place to talk: "Brother Tuesday, Yu'er and the baby are sleeping in the house, I'm a little worried, let's go to the West House to talk?" ”

Zhou Weiji nodded.

Lan Yi turned around and picked up the oil lamp, took Zhou Weiji into the West House, and put the oil lamp on the small kang table, "Second brother, wait a minute." ”

She turned around and returned to the east house with the oil lamp, saw that the baby and Yu'er were sleeping sweetly together, and touched the foreheads of the two of them, and only after seeing that they were both at normal temperature did she turn around and return to the west house, and reached out to pour tea for Zhou Weiji.

Zhou Wei took a step faster, filled the teacup, and said in a deep voice: "Brother and sister, turn off the lights." ”

Lan Yi was stunned, what to do when the lights were turned off?

Zhou Weiji saw her stunned expression, and was inexplicably a little happy: "If those two still have accomplices, it is easy to be noticed if the oil lamp is still on in the middle of the night." ”

Lan Yi reacted, nodded and blew out the oil lamp.

After the oil lamp went out, the hazy moonlight cast the mottled shadows of the old locust tree on the window paper, and the sound of chirping insects seemed to be clearer. Lan Yi gradually adapted to the darkness, although she couldn't see the expression on the face of Zhou Weiji, who was sitting across the table, in the haze, she saw him sitting cross-legged and upright, and he had an awe-inspiring aura of a soldier, which made people feel at ease, which was different from the psychological feeling that he had wanted to see several times before.

"Brother Tuesday, the matter of our mother and son is very simple, I will talk about it first, and then if you have anything you want to ask, please speak up, I will not hide it."

Zhou Weiji nodded. Lan Yi squinted, this person really likes to nod and shake his head, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to see this black light.

"Things have to start from the sixth day of March last year, when I, the baby and the baby's mother fell from the mountain south of Qingshan Town, Dongpingmei County for some reason. The baby is fine; My head hit the stone and I woke up remembering nothing; The baby's mother was pierced through the heart by the stone, and she only had time to explain a few words. ”

Lan Yi remembered the scene at that time, and still remembered it vividly, and Zhou Weiji, who was opposite, heard this, grabbed his knees with both hands, and leaned forward slightly.

Lan Yi paused, and then continued: "The baby's mother asked me to make spring peaches, and according to my dress at the time, I should be the maid of the family." She asked me to take her fake household registration and run away with the baby, so that I was careful to be caught up by the enemy. I asked her who the enemy was, and she only intermittently said that Wang Tiangui had murdered their family for money. After the baby's mother died, I buried her in a cave with the fake household registration and more than 100 taels of silver found from her, disguised as a woman to avoid the pursuers and fled all the way to Beigou Village to settle down. ”

Zhou Weiji listened carefully to what Lan Yi said, and looked at her with burning eyes in the misty moonlight.

She was ordered to be in danger alone, evaded the pursuit with her young son in distress, and escaped safely to Huang County and rescued Yu'er. She lost her memory and did not panic, and bravely held up the portal with her two children. She lived a positive and optimistic life in such circumstances, helping the people in the village to earn money, but she never thought of relying on others.

Another point, she is not a widow, she is not Wang Linshan's wife, she has not yet married!

This information echoed in Zhou Weiji's mind several times, and his heart was filled with a strange feeling, and he wanted to scream, but he couldn't.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, the corners of his mouth curled up and showed a gentle smile.

Lan Yi naturally couldn't feel all the thoughts in Zhou Weiji's heart, and then said: "Brother Tuesday, when I woke up in the carriage, I heard them say what jade pendant they were looking for. When the baby's mother died, she carried a round hollow carved cloud Baifu flower jade pendant, which was this piece. ”

Lan Yi took out the jade pendant and handed the letter to Zhou Weiji along with the household registration: "This is the household registration I took from the baby's mother and the letter written to her by the baby's father, you can take it back and take a look." ”

Lan Yi didn't expect the lights to go out, and she was going to let him watch it here.

Zhou Weiji calmly stretched out his hand to take it, took the jade pendant in his hand and looked at it for a while, and then returned it to Lan Yi, and the letter and household registration were put into his arms.

Lan Yi continued: "There are two more things to tell the second brother: the baby's father only mentioned in the letter that someone bought his subordinates on the road and wanted to harm him, and he sent Butler Wang to go back first to protect the baby and her mother, but did not mention who bought it. Before the baby's mother died, she said that Wang Tiangui was their enemy, but she didn't have time to say the evidence. Today in the carriage, the two of them just said that they wanted to find Yu Pei and arrest me and go back to ask about the whereabouts of Yu Pei, but did not mention Wang Tiangui's name, saying that the 'second master' asked them to find it. ”

"The second thing: I have already inquired with Xia Shun and Liuzi, the baby's father should be Wang Mingzhe, the uncle of the Wang family, a big merchant in Meixian County, and the 'second master' in the mouth of the two thieves should be Wang Mingzhe's brother Wang Mingli, this is all I know."

Zhou Weiji nodded, straightened out Lan Yi's words in his heart, and said, "What my brother and sister said makes sense. I will examine the two thieves carefully tomorrow morning, and I will know the details. ”

Lan Yi said: "There is Second Brother Lao. ”

Zhou Weiji clenched his fists, and then asked, "Listening to my brother and sister, you haven't seen Brother Linshan in Meixian?" ”

"I can't know what happened before the amnesia, I guess I haven't seen it before." Chun Tao is Yirou's maid, mostly in the inner house, Wang Linshan is just a scholar from other places to Mei County, and it is impossible to see it. Besides, if they have an intersection with Wang Linshan, and Steward Wang is afraid that someone will find him, then the fake household registration will be meaningless.

Zhou Weiji slightly let go of his fist, and was angry that this girl was too bold: "Brother and sister, is there something wrong with you doing this." If Brother Lin Shan is still alive, what will you do when he returns? ”

But to really marry him?

"Brother Tuesday, I've considered this possibility, it's not big. The clothes and jewelry on the baby's mother are exquisite, and she is as beautiful as a fairy in the sky, and her speech and actions show that her family background is extraordinary. Such a housekeeper must be safe to make a fake household registration, if there is a little problem, how dare he let the master and servant come with the child? Steward Wang must have made proper arrangements, a few days before our mother and son arrived in Beigou Village, there were two merchants from Dongping Prefecture who came here to look for Wang Linshan, I think they were sent by Steward Wang to pick up people, but we missed it because we had a situation on the three of us and delayed for a while. Steward Wang has not sent anyone over for more than a year, and he is afraid that he is also lacking in skills. ”

Zhou Weiji listened to Lan Yi's soft and hoarse voice to analyze the situation one by one, interlocking and reasonable, so he nodded. Fortunately, the two of them missed it, otherwise how could he be neighbors with this little woman, mother and son.

"I already know what happened, you should rest sooner. I'll be guarding outside tonight, and I'll send someone to protect you secretly tomorrow, so my brother and sister can rest and recuperate at home. ”

Lan Yi looked at the confused figure opposite, and didn't know what to say to be grateful, so she had to say dryly: "Brother Lao Er's bothered." ”

Zhou Weiji nodded, looked at her and asked, "Since you are not Lin Shan's daughter-in-law, is it appropriate for me to call you 'brother and sister' again?" ”

Lan Yi was stunned, what does it matter what to call it?

"Well, I am grateful to Lin Shan for providing shelter for our mother and son, and I am also grateful to Second Uncle Wang's family for taking care of us. In any case, I am now the surviving person of Wang Linshan, his wife, and I should burn paper for him every year to worship, and I don't want to flee again with my children unless it is necessary. ”

Zhou Wei nodded stiffly, she was very satisfied with her identity as the surviving person of Wang Linshan?! What she said before was that she wanted to be widowed and grow up with her two children sincerely?

Lan Yi's words made his heart sullen and uncomfortable, and Zhou Wei was extremely annoyed, how could he be like a hairy young man, and his mood was up and down by what she said in a few words!

He took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and took out two small medicine bottles from his arms and placed them on the table, the snow-white porcelain bottles glowing softly in the hazy moonlight.

"Brother and sister, this bottle is a medicinal wine for treating bruises, you use it to rub the wound, don't be afraid of pain, push the bruises away to get better quickly; This bottle is wound medicine, you first clean the wound and then wipe it on, do not touch the water again these days, and do not scratch it, and wait for the wound to scab off before leaving a scar. ”

Thinking of the abrasions on Lan Yi's face, the strangulation marks on her wrists, the bruised shoulders, and the injured abdomen from kicks, Zhou Weiji couldn't wait to kill the two people in prison!

Lan Yi looked at the porcelain vase, a little flustered in her heart. Although he and Zhou Weiji are neighbors, they don't have much intersection, Lan Yi has always known that he has a slight affection for him, but she clearly refused.

It's not that he's bad, it's that he's young, his identity is not clear, and he doesn't take emotional matters into account. She didn't have before, and she couldn't now, the enemy was imminent, and she didn't want to accept him at this time, so that she felt that she was using him to get through the crisis.

Lan Yi has a habit of emotional cleanliness and doesn't want it to get a trace of dust.

Thinking like this, Lan Yi always felt that she should say something to listen to, so she blurted out the words that came out of her mouth: "I caused trouble to the second brother this time, and I Lan Yi remembered this kindness in my heart." In the future, if the second brother has any difficulties, my mother and son will definitely go to the soup and never give up. ”

Zhou Wei smiled very lowly, even if there are difficulties, where is he willing to let her go to the soup? She said it well!

"My brother and sister's current name is Lan Yi? It's a perfect fit. Rest early, it's going to be dawn. ”

The word "Lan Yi" spit out from his mouth, Lan Yijing couldn't help but feel a little sour, and his name seemed to have not been called for a long time: "Brother Tuesday, after the second thief comes back from the interrogation tomorrow, you can knock on the door directly." There was a lot of inconvenience at night, and it also delayed the rest of the second brother. ”

Zhou Wei stiffened, it was indeed inconvenient to do this.

Lan Yi sent Zhou Weiji out, and saw that he was very agile when he turned over the wall, she looked left and right at the quiet courtyard, and the dark night seemed to be overwhelming.

After taking a hurried bath, Lan Yi poured the medicinal wine in the porcelain bottle into the palm of her hand, gritted her teeth and pushed her shoulders and abdomen hard, and rubbed the wound into heat; She also carefully smeared the wound medicine on the abrasions, which supposedly would not leave a scar, but it was better to be careful.

Zhou Weiji was dressed in black, his eyes were hidden among the branches of the sycamore tree, paying attention to the movements around him, although he had not rested for a day and a night, but he was not sleepy. R1152
