Since Jing Yi has already worshipped his master, of course he will fulfill his obligations as an apprentice. She cleaned up, helped the master into the carriage, and then took the master home.

When Jing Yi helped the master into the house, Song Yuancheng and Qiao Hong were very curious.

Song Yuancheng stood at the door and asked, "Childe, who is this?" ”

Jing Yi said: "This is my master, Mei Lao. Song Yuancheng, you drive the carriage to the backyard and take the things to the house. Qiao Hong, you go and clean up the main house on this side of the old courtyard and give my master a place to live. ”

Song Yuancheng and Qiao Hong hurriedly did what their son-in-law requested.

The furniture in the main room is ready-made, and Qiao Hong has a new set of bedding.

Mei Huanzhang looked around and felt that this courtyard was really good.

Jing Yi said: "This is the courtyard where the men in the family live, you can live here." My mother and I lived in the yard next to it. The two courtyards are connected by a door, and it is easy to come and go. ”

Mei Huanzhang nodded, "You look at the arrangement, I can live anywhere." ”

Jing Yi helped the master into the main landlord's house, "The master lives in the main house here, and the two male servants in the family also live here, if you tell them to do anything." ”

A new futon was laid on the kang, and Jing Yi helped the master to lie on the bed and rest.

Mei Huanzhang observed that the room was very clean and tidy, and the decoration was very elegant, and it should be very good to live here.

Jing Yi covered the quilt for the master and said, "Master, you take a rest first, and I'll go and tell my mother about my apprenticeship." ”

Mei Huanzhang was also a little tired, and nodded, "You go." ”

She turned her head to Qiao Hong and said, "Qiao Hong, you go boil some boiling water and get some warm water for Mei Lao to drink." Mei Lao is injured and still taking medicine, so he can't drink tea. You take care of it more. ”

Qiao Hong nodded, "Don't worry, Childe, I will take care of Mr. Mei." ”

Jingyi arranged for the master to go to the new hospital to find her mother, and she had to tell her about her apprenticeship.

Liu Shi saw his daughter coming and said, "I heard Qiao Yan say that you brought back another patient?" This is what you met halfway through and picked up? ”

Jing Yi laughed when she heard this, "Mother, look at what you said, it seems that I have a habit of picking up people." ”

Liu Shi glanced at his daughter, "Didn't you pick up another one?" ”

Jing Yi said: "Mother, I have worshipped this old gentleman as a teacher, and he is now my master." One day as a teacher and a father for life, the master is injured, I can't ignore it, of course I have to take his old man to his home to recuperate. ”

Jing Yi didn't want to tell her mother too much, especially since she was going to take over the affairs of Tianling Pavilion, so as not to worry her mother.

Liu said: "Why do you worship a master? What the hell is going on? Tell your mother about it. ”

Jing Yi said: "My master just lost his daughter, and he thinks I am like his daughter, and he sees that I am a good seedling for martial arts, so he wants to accept me as an apprentice." He is also quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and I want to learn his Tianling swordsmanship. ”

Liu always felt that what his daughter said was unreliable, "I'm going to meet your master." ”

This Jingyi has no objection, and her mother will have to meet with the master sooner or later.

Liu asked again: "By the way, what is the name of this master you worship?" ”

Jing Yi said: "Master, his name is Mei Huanzhang. ”

Liu Shi was stunned when he heard this, "What did you say was your master's name?" ”

Jing Yi looked at her mother, whose face had changed a little, and said, "My master's surname is Mei, Mei, whose name is Huanzhang." ”

Liu couldn't help but speed up his steps when he heard this.

Liu came to the old courtyard and entered the main house, and asked Qiao Hong to report before entering the house.

Jing Yi asked Qiao Hong to prepare the ingredients for cooking, and there was no one else in the house. They are also easy to talk.

As soon as Liu entered the room, he was stunned when he saw the person sitting on the kang, and carefully looked at the person opposite.

And Mei Huanzhang was also stunned when he saw Liu.

Liu said with tears in his eyes: "But cousin Huanzhang? ”

Mei Huanzhang looked at Liu Shi in a daze when he heard this, raised his finger and pointed at Liu Shi in disbelief, and said, "You are Cousin Han?" ”

Ryu nodded with tears in his eyes.

Mei Huanzhang hurriedly got up and got off the ground, with tears in his eyes, "Cousin Han, I heard that there was an accident in the Jing family, you and your niece are wanted, I sent people to look for you everywhere in Yiguo, there is no news, I didn't expect us to meet here." ”

Hearing this, Liu's tears flowed, "We are desperate in the Wing Country, so we have to flee to this Jin Kingdom." What about you, where did you leave home in the first place? How come you are also in the Jin Kingdom? My aunt has always been thinking about you, and she was talking about you before she died. ”

Mei Huanzhang sighed and said: "Back then, I took Xiao Tao to leave home and came to this Wing Country, where no one knew our identity, and we got married here." ”

Liu asked, "Where is the cousin now?" ”

Mei Huanzhang was silent for a moment and swallowed and said: "Xiao Tao was injured at the beginning, she has not conceived a child since we got married, and then we don't have any hope." But when Xiao Tao was thirty-four years old, she suddenly became pregnant, and she was so happy that she had to give birth to the child even when she was older. It is very dangerous to give birth at an advanced age, Xiao Tao's body is weak, and it is the first child, and it is difficult to give birth when giving birth, and she will go after giving birth. ”

Mei Huanzhang fell into the sadness of the past and cried, wiped his tears and continued: "Xiao Tao gave birth to a daughter for me, I was a father and a mother, I raised the child like a jewel, and then got married. But it didn't take long for the son-in-law to die, and the daughter was killed. I'm alone now. ”

When Liu heard this, he also cried sadly.

Jing Yi stared at where the two of them forgot to reminisce, sad and weeping, and forgot that she was beside her.

Jing Yi looked back and forth at the two of them and said, "I said, should you tell me what the hell is going on?" ”

Liu Shi wiped her tears from her tears when her daughter said this: "Brother Yan'er, this is your aunt's grandmother's eldest son, you have to call your cousin." ”

Jing Yi didn't expect that he had saved someone, and he recognized that a master was still a relative.

Mei Huanzhang felt that the world was really impermanent, and sighed: "I didn't expect that the savior who saved me was my niece." I also took my niece as an apprentice. We don't have anyone else in this fate. ”

Liu nodded, "Yes, I didn't expect your two uncles and nephews to meet, it's really fate." ”

Liu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Cousin, do you know that something happened to the Jing family, do you also know about the situation in Yiguo?" What happened to the Liu family, have you been affected by me? ”

Mei Huanzhang's expression sank when he heard the Liu family ask about the situation of the Liu family, and he sighed and said, "I also heard from my subordinates that after the Jing family's accident, I have been sending people to pay attention to the news from the Yiguo side. After learning that your mother and daughter had escaped, they sent people everywhere to look for you, but there has been no news. After you and your niece escaped, the government has been wanted by the government. Because he didn't catch your dog emperor, he got angry, so he implicated the Liu family.

I got the news that the Liu family was impeached for harboring fugitives, and the emperor sentenced the Liu family to exile. The Liu family was exiled to a place called Yuanling County in the southernmost part of the Wing Country. ”
