"Well, as soon as the owner left, more than a dozen people broke into the inn, shouting that they wanted to stay in the hotel for dinner. We explained that the proprietor was not open during the marriage period, but they did not listen, and only shouted for good wine and food to be served, and wanted to beat people. It just so happened that the dragon catcher was passing by and came in to stop them, so they gave up.

The dragon catcher asked people to stay in the yard, lest anyone make trouble again. I didn't think about it, and there was another one who wanted to see the owner. The two sides fought, and it was difficult to separate for a while.

At this time, County Lieutenant Mu came, looked at the person's physical examination form, and said that if that person could win him, he could take him directly to the owner without waiting for a set of steps such as changing the green card and the red card. So the two flew away from the wall, and they didn't know where to compete. The dragon catcher was not at ease, and also chased after him, but he didn't know if he had caught up. ”

Sun Chenxian patiently explained.

I was even more confused: "Who is that hard break?" Have a medical check-up form? He also signed up? ”

"Hmm." Sun Chenxian nodded: "Didn't the owner say that he wanted to go out for a walk, as soon as he left, he came, saying that he wanted to sign up for marriage, I registered it for him, and gave him a physical examination form to let him go to the Rejuvenation Hall."

Generally, those who go to the Rejuvenation Hall don't wait for three or five days, even if there are fewer people now, at least they have to wait until the next day. But he returned in less than a quarter of an hour. I saw that his physical examination form had Dr. Li's signature and seal, so it shouldn't be fake. You say, how can he be so fast? ”

Hearing him say this, I also remembered the whole process of my participation in the marriage campaign. There is no such thing as absolute fairness in this world. Isn't it also because Du Xiuzhen gave me the back door, saving me the time to make an appointment for a physical examination, and because Mu Niangzi treated me differently and successfully got the purse?

"Since he's registered, he should know where he came from, right?" I asked, with a flash of inspiration in my head, wouldn't it be another fine work?

"Oh, he said that his hometown is in Chang'an, and he has been displaced since the Anshi Rebellion, and he just arrived in Xiangzhou City this morning. He wanted to settle down here, so he joined the marriage campaign. He ......"

"Chenxian, Chenxian! And the stone went to clean up the backyard. The leaves all over the ground have nowhere to stay. Fauber's voice came.

"Oh!"

Sun Chenxian replied and ran to get busy. The doubts in my heart can only be put aside temporarily.

Today's registration is almost over, and it won't take a few days for all the people who have signed up to basically complete the assessment, I don't know who I will give the purse I returned, and I don't know who Mu Niangzi will end up with.

But none of this has anything to do with me, I have become a flowery man in her heart eating in a bowl and watching the pot. My relationship with her may be considered a friend, or just a simple business partner.

I came home in a daze and cleaned up some of the tofu stuff as usual. A gust of wind blew, and the hands that had just been soaked in the well water were even more cold and numb.

Looking at the fallen leaves rolling on the ground in the courtyard, I couldn't help but feel a little sad. Isn't a man's life like a leaf? Budding with the spring breeze, growing up in the summer rain, withering in the autumn wind, and then, covered by snow, gradually turning into dust.

The breath of winter is really getting closer and closer, and it is only the beginning of the unitary time, and the sky has already begun to darken. I came to the courtyard gate and looked down the path, but I still didn't see A-Niang.

"Brother Li? Why are you standing here? Without waiting for A-Niang, Yang Mosheng came back, and he looked into the courtyard: "What?" Hasn't the aunt come back yet? ”

"Nope." My heart rose to my throat, thinking of what happened to Wang Jiajia, I was really a little panicked, A-Niang wouldn't have something wrong.

"Didn't the aunt tell me where she went?"

I shook my head: "I didn't elaborate. She embroiders some female red every day and walks the streets and alleys to sell, at most she goes to Yunyin Nunnery to make incense, and there are no relatives in the city, she will not go home until dark. ”

"Don't worry too much about it yet, maybe something will be delayed."

Something delayed? What's up? My heart trembled, if Yang Mosheng is really meticulous, then he said that A-Niang has something, which means that they have done something to A-Niang. Could it be that they also tied up A-Niang?

I grabbed Yang Mosheng and tried to suppress the anger in my heart: "No, A-Niang will be fine." Brother Yang, can you accompany me to find it? ”

"Okay."

I carried the lantern out of the courtyard, and stopped for a moment in front of Wang Jiajia's courtyard, thinking about it not to alarm their father and daughter first.

"Brother Li, slow down." Yang Mosheng trotted a few steps to catch up with me, and because it was dark, his steps were a little messy.

"It's so late, A-Niang still doesn't know where she is." I looked at the ink-stained sky, and my heart was flustered.

Is A-Niang really missing? Does it have anything to do with them? Looking at Yang Mosheng's weak appearance, I should be able to subdue him, but I don't know if there are any guards hiding him around at this moment. He is a fine work, I forcibly asked, will he hand over A-Niang? No, it would definitely reveal my identity and ruin Xiao Mu's plans.

"Who is it? Jianghu? ”

Just as I was in a hurry, a familiar voice came. I fixed my eyes on a figure staggering towards us.

"A-Niang, A-Niang." I rushed over and grabbed her hand: "Why did you come back at this time?" ”

"Ahh My feet. As soon as Ah Niang took a step, the whole person turned upside down towards me, and by the faint light of the lantern, I could see that she was sweating profusely.

"Auntie is okay, right?"

"What's wrong with the foot?" I asked, leaning over and looking back, I couldn't see the injury, only the smell of blood.

"Caught in the trap of the beast and wounded."

"Come, A-Niang, I'll carry you. Brother Yang. I handed the lantern to Yang Mosheng and carried Ah Niang on his back: "Where have you been?" How do you step on a trap? ”

"Probably Shen Shichu, I don't know who is so lacking in virtue, and deliberately asked someone to pass on the word to me, saying that you had an accident outside the West City Gate. I didn't believe it at first, I went to the door of the Jianghu Inn, I really didn't see your figure, I asked Ah Wu, he pointed to the west, and said that you have something urgent to go.

I rushed out of the city, looked around and didn't find you, and was about to go back to Wang Fatzi for help, but I stepped on the fallen leaves, and there was actually a trap buried in it. It's obviously a path, who would set a trap there? Isn't this intentional to hurt people? ”

A-Niang was moaning and talking about what had happened, and at the same time she scolded people indignantly. I realized that A-Niang had moved back from outside the city step by step with an injury, and along the way she also found herbs by herself, smashed them with stones and compressed her feet.

She said that at the beginning of Shen Shichu, Wang Jiajia and I were waiting for the county government to pass on Mu Niangzi to question, of course, not at the Jianghu Inn. Ah Niang must have learned through Ah Wu that I had been out for a long time and had not returned, so she went out of the city to find me in a hurry, and stepped on the trap in a panic.

All this time is so cleverly calculated. Are they warning me? Let me know their methods and let me worry that they will be bad for the people around me at any time......

Yang Mosheng held a lantern in front of him, turned around and asked pretendly: "In this way, it is definitely not the hunter's doing, I don't know if the eldest lady has offended people on weekdays?" ”

"Where can this be? Who can I offend? How boring and harmful should this person who kills a thousand knives be so harmful! Ah Niang was furious, and muttered in her mouth that the ancestor of the person who injured her had greeted all eighteen generations.

I carefully observed Yang Mosheng's reaction, and it didn't seem to be too much of a ripple. Maybe he is just calm on the surface, but he doesn't know what his anger has become in his heart. Hehe, dare to be angry but don't dare to send! It's so detailed, it's really a nest.

"Well, it's here. Allison! Allison! Seeing that she was almost home, A-Niang patted me on the back and stopped at Wang Jiajia's door.

"Mother. What happened to you? Wang Jiajia asked in surprise with an apron around her waist.

"It's fine, I accidentally hurt my foot. Come, this is the longevity lock I asked you for when I went to Yunyin Nunnery in the morning, come, wear it. A-Niang said, got off my back, leaned on the courtyard door, and put a walnut-sized copper lock on Wang Jiajia's neck.

"Thank you, mother, it's so beautiful." Wang Jiajia boasted, carefully put the longevity lock into the collar, and held A-Niang with her hand: "Are you seriously injured?" I still have gold sore medicine at home, I'll put it on for you later. ”

"Okay, okay, it's okay. On your birthday, I still want to make you something delicious. Didn't expect ......"

"Hehe, mother, it's okay, I'm old, don't worry, I will never treat myself badly. I just made noodles and cooked longevity noodles for a while. Mother, you haven't eaten it yet, I'll just cook more. ”

Wang Jiajia put A-Niang's arm on her shoulder, helped A-Niang jump back to the room, brought water again, cleaned the wound, and applied medicine. Wang Fatzi also came over to greet him, and ate longevity noodles together, which can be regarded as accompanying Wang Jiajia to spend his life.

I felt so embarrassed, as if I was a transparent person. The ugly girl was so big in a flash, and the increasingly confident temperament on her body had already overshadowed the scars on her face. The girl who has been sticking to me since I was a child, the girl who has always been full of my eyes, didn't even look at me tonight, which made me extremely disappointed, and I felt that my whole heart was colder than the cold wind outside the house.

……

When I woke up the next day, the most important thing for me was to check on my mother's injuries. Yesterday, I saw Wang Jiajia cleaning her wounds, and I felt that the injuries were quite serious, although A-Niang endured the whole process without moaning, but the sweat on her forehead and her trembling body all expressed her pain.

"A-Niang, A-Niang, are you awake? Are your feet better? I knocked on the door and called.

Unexpectedly, A-Niang didn't react.

I pushed harder, but I still didn't respond.

"What's wrong? Isn't the aunt in the house? Yang Mosheng also came out of the room and patted the door: "Auntie, are you in the room?" ”

Still no movement...... A-Niang...... My heart trembled, could it be......

Without thinking too much, I kicked it off. The door finally opened, and A-Niang was still lying motionless on the bed.

"Why is it so hot! A-Niang, A-Niang, wake up! I looked at A-Niang's burning face, panicked for a moment, and shook her body vigorously.

"Water ......," A-Niang muttered, her eyes moved, but she didn't even have the strength to open her eyes and look at me.

"Auntie! Ma'am! Yang Mosheng also looked anxious and shouted on the side.

"Auntie, it's okay, I'll send you to the doctor!" I lifted the quilt, grabbed a coat and put it on my mother, and ran out with her on my back.
