Chapter 80: Redemptive Love
Facing Mu Sha's invitation, Zhao Min glanced at Zhang Wuji, and Zhang Wuji nodded immediately.
The two then followed Musa to the small courtyard in the mountains where their family lived.
Zhang Wuji looked around, although it was very simple, it was very clean. And the surrounding courtyard walls are made of bluestone, which is very reliable. And in the middle of the small courtyard, there is a small wooden house. There is also a sheepfold for sheep. There were also a few goats inside.
Musa shouted to the house, "Abba, Ah Lang, our benefactor has arrived. ”
At this moment, an old man with a cane in his hand slowly walked out of the house.
Zhang Wuji looked the old man up and down, although the old man was older, he was very tall, and he looked like a typical Mongolian man. It's just that his leg seems to have been broken. I can only walk on crutches.
It's just that the black jade intermittent paste is gone. I haven't made it again. Even if you wanted to save him, it would be difficult to save him.
The old man looked at Zhang Wuji with a smile, as well as the beautiful girl beside Zhang Wuji.
Then the old man saluted Zhang Wuji with Mongolian etiquette and said, "Thank you to the benefactor for saving the little girl." The old man has thanked his benefactor here. ”
Zhang Wuji hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and then said: "Dad doesn't have to be like this, it's just a gesture of effort." ”
At this time, a strong man carrying firewood on his back came to the gate of the courtyard.
He looked at Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min in the courtyard, looked at Mu Sha, and then said with a smile: "There are guests at home?" ”
Mu Sha hurriedly introduced him: "Ah Lang, this is the benefactor who saved me!" ”
Zhang Wuji looked at the man. He was strong and strong, like a strong man in the countryside, but he had a piece of white silk wrapped around his forehead.
Hearing this, the man hurriedly put down the dry firewood on his back, threw down the firewood knife, and then knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you for saving my mother's life!" Please be bowed by the villain. ”
Zhang Wuji also hurriedly helped him up, and he said, "Hehe, this brother is really too polite. ”
Zhao Min looked at the appearance of this family of three, and then asked, "Brother Wuji, what happened before?" How did you save this sister? ”
Hearing Zhao Min's question, Zhang Wuji was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Mu Sha, and then at Mu Sha's husband, and he replied with some embarrassment: "I'll tell you this when I go back!" ”
Mu Sha saw Zhang Wuji's concerns, and she replied casually: "That's the case, half a year ago, I was forcibly captured by the Mongolian cavalry and used as a camp prostitute. After that, I escaped, not wanting to be captured by the Han army again and become a camp prostitute. It was Eun Gong who saved me when he was in camp. Also gave me a coil to come back with. ”
"What!" After Zhao Min listened, his brows furrowed, and anger appeared on his face.
Of course, Zhao Min knew that there was a system of camp prostitutes in the Mongolian military camp, but the father and son of King Ruyang had been lying to her before, and the camp prostitutes were all hired for money. But Musa told her that it was a robbery. Of course, Zhao Min was a little angry.
If the other Mongol armies were like this, she wouldn't have to be so angry. And the troops that attacked south before were their own father and brother, and Musa's tragedy was caused by them. Now that I see this devastated girl, where do I still have the face to face her, I am naturally very angry.
Zhang Wuji looked at Mu Sha's husband.
Musha's husband also replied: "Engong doesn't have to mind, when I married Musha, she told the truth." It's not her fault. Naturally, I don't dislike her. ”
After listening to the couple's words, Zhang Wuji smiled and said, "It seems that I am living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Hahaha. ”
Musa's husband said happily: "Since we have met Engong today, then we should do our best to be a landlord." I also asked Engong to sit down for a while, and Musa took out the wine I bought two days ago. I'll get a few more good dishes. ”
Musa nodded happily. Then the family warmly invited Zhang Wuji and the two to sit down.
And Zhang Wuji didn't refuse, and then Mu Sha and his wife began to work hard, and after a while, a few wild dishes. There are meat and vegetarian dishes, vegetables and meats, and even some Mongolian-style delicacies such as milk tea are placed on this small stone table.
During the meal, Zhang Wuji chatted and asked about what happened to Musha later.
Mu Sha also answered Zhang Wuji's question truthfully.
Since Mu Sha left Zhang Wuji, she started her journey north back to Sichuan Long alone. During the period, it was very difficult to eat and drink.
But because she disguised herself as a beggar, and pretended to be dumb, she begged all the way, and no one embarrassed her along the way.
It wasn't until she came to the relatively peaceful territory of Bashu that she used the silver given by Zhang Wuji to buy new clothes. Then she met a caravan that had gone to Guanzhong to do business, and the shopkeeper of the caravan saw that she was pitiful, so he asked her to go with them.
Along the way, she helped everyone wash their clothes and cook, in return. Returned safely to the vicinity of Hanzhong.
When she returned home, her home had been burned down by the Mongol army, so she searched for her father's whereabouts.
Fortunately, God had mercy on her, although her father was injured and had a broken leg. But he was taken in.
And the person who took in Musa's father was Musa's husband's family.
Mu Sha's husband is a local Han Chinese, surnamed Wang, but because the father and son have been collecting firewood for a living, this man was named "Wang Qiao".
Mu Sha and Wang Qiao are childhood sweethearts, and although the two families are not world friends, they are also blind neighbors.
Wang Qiao's father died early, and only his mother was in the hall. Although the family is a poor woodcutter, they have a good heart.
And Musa's father was picked up by Wang Qiao's mother at the risk of her life.
It's just that their family is poor, and Musa's father was robbed by the Mongol soldiers again, and there is no money for him to treat, so this leg is crippled.
However, Daddy Musa is also grateful for their kindness, and saving his own life is already a great kindness. Where else will it take care of.
After Musa returned, she finally found her father here after several inquiries. For Musa's safe return, Wang Qiao, as a childhood sweetheart, is the happiest. And Wang Qiao has liked Mu Sha very much since he was a child, so he proposed to Mu Sha under the help of his elders.
Although he had this intention before, he never dared to confess because he had no self-confidence. But the joy of this loss and recovery made him open his mouth.
But Mu Sha did not agree to come down immediately, but told Wang Qiao's mother and son the truth about what happened to her. told the honest and honest Wang Qiao that his body had already been ruined by countless men. It's no longer possible to get married.
But despite this, Wang Qiao did not dislike her. As he himself said, the fault lies with the Mongol court, not with his lover.
Moved by this sincerity, Mu Sha agreed to Wang Qiao's marriage proposal. So the two became close under the witness of their elders. After marriage, the two lived happily.
But the only sad thing is that Wang Qiao's mother passed away some time ago. However, the mother saw that her son had a family, and she left without regrets.
After listening to this story, Zhang Wuji sighed: "If there is still true love in the world." ”
However, Zhang Wuji didn't want to mention these unpleasant things anymore, but Zhang Wuji noticed a little, and then asked, "That's right!" Brother Wang has been working as a woodcutter in the mountains for a long time, can he be familiar with the terrain path in the mountains? ”
