Chapter 1023: Four-legged Bugs

Four-legged bugs?

Liu Yunxiang didn't understand the origin of this name, but just thought that maybe these women had committed some crime.

Many inns were full, and they ended up at a more remote and shabby-looking inn, only this one had enough empty rooms.

The lame young man enthusiastically led them to the backyard, tied the camels first, and then led them to the front hall.

"You three must be tired from a long journey in the desert. I'll ask the kitchen to boil hot water for the three of you, but you'll have to wait a little longer, do you see if you have dinner or shower first? ”

Liu Yunxiang only felt uncomfortable covered in dirt, as did Zijin and Feng Zheng, and the three of them unanimously decided to take a bath first.

After the guy led them upstairs, he quickly brought two plates of snacks for them to fill their stomachs first.

Liu Yunxiang and Zijin were in the same room, Zijin washed his hands casually, and quickly put two pieces of dim sum in his mouth.

"This guy is quite thoughtful, but the furniture in this house is too shabby." Zijin looked at the furniture in this room, the corners of the table were all off, and the benches were swaying, but fortunately, they were still clean.

Liu Yunxiang didn't care about these things, so he first took a broom and swept the dust on his body.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, Zijin went to open it, and a young woman came carrying a large bucket of hot water. She didn't speak, nodded at them and carried her behind the screen.

She was tall, but thin, and it was a bit of a struggle to carry the big bucket of water. When she got to the tub, she wanted to lift it, but because she didn't have enough strength, she spilled a lot.

Zijin went over to help, picked it up with one hand, and poured it all in.

The woman nodded gratefully, and then went to carry the water again.

Zijin came out from behind the screen, walked to Liu Yunxiang's side, and whispered: "Girl, I saw that this woman had several bruises on her arms, as if she had been beaten. ”

Liu Yunxiang shook his head and didn't say anything.

After a while, the young woman brought in another bucket of hot water, Liu Yunxiang looked over, but he didn't go out of his way to look at it, but he still saw the wound on her arm with her sleeve exposed.

The woman was silent and walked directly behind the screen, and Zijin took the initiative to help.

Liu Yunxiang washed first, then Zijin, and Feng Zheng in the next room, the woman walked up and down more than a dozen times.

Zijin sighed: "I can't bear to be as strong as me." ”

After the bath, the lame young man came up to bring food, and the young woman followed, and because he did not make a sound, the lame young man almost hit her when he turned around.

"Didn't I tell you to go back to the house to rest, why did you come up again?" The young man seemed to be angry, but his words were full of distress, and he took the tray from the woman's hand and put the food on the table.

"If you have any orders, just shout outside, and we'll wait downstairs at will."

With that, the young man pushed the woman out. She was so hurt that she ducked from the wound on the woman's arm.

The young man frowned, "They beat you again?" ”

"Nope."

"Why didn't you call me?"

"Nope."

The young man angrily dragged the woman out of the house, as if he was going to settle accounts with someone.

Zijin sent them out the door, came back and whispered: "These two must be husband and wife, the man seems to be very good to the woman." ”

"What a good thing!" Feng Zheng pouted, "If it's really good, you can let others beat your daughter-in-law?" ”

Zijin smiled, "Then what if I am beaten?" ”

"Hmph, I can't spare him!"

Liu Yunxiang teased: "Yo, our junior is a good man." “

Zijin also smiled, "The best man in the world." ”

Feng Zheng blushed from laughing at them, and waved his hand, "I don't dare to be the number one in the world, after all, there is His Royal Highness." ”

At the mention of Yan Dusk, Liu Yunxiang couldn't help sighing, he was in the prison of Xiyue, and he was bound to suffer. It's just that with his resourcefulness, he should be able to save himself.

The three of them were eating, and they heard a noise in the backyard, which was quiet, and then there was a clang, as if something had hit the ground, and then the woman's cry.

Zijin opened the back window and looked down, and then said to Liu Yunxiang: "This family has a quarrel." ”

Liu Yunxiang didn't care, but when he heard the woman below scolding: "She's a four-legged bedbug, when I first married her, I didn't agree, you are confused, you have to marry her." Look, something is wrong now. ”

Hearing the insulting title of 'four-legged bedbug' again, Liu Yunxiang looked confused, got up and went to the back window to look down. There were four people in the backyard, presumably a family, and the older woman sat on the ground crying and pointed to the young woman who was being protected by the lame young man behind her, and took a 'four-legged bedbug'. Another tall and swarthy man, presumably a lame young father, was smoking with a cigarette stick. He took a puff and glared at the young woman.

"I want to see it, just hand her over, save this worrying day!" The man said coldly.

The lame young man protected his daughter-in-law behind him, "If any of you dare to report to the official, I will fight with whomever I want!" ”

"You white-eyed wolf, we raised you so big in vain, and your elbow turned out!" The middle-aged man was so angry that he wanted to beat the young man.

"She is my daughter-in-law, not an outsider, and she did all the work before and after, don't you say that you feel sorry for her, just forget it, and secretly beat her, is this what people do!"

"You stinky boy!" The middle-aged woman was so angry that she got up and punched her son, "I raised you for nothing!" Aren't you protecting her, you two get out together! ”

The young man took two steps back, and he simply threw the shovel in his hand to the ground.

"Okay, let's go now!"

So saying, he grabbed the young woman and was about to leave.

But the middle-aged woman regretted it when she finished speaking, and sat down on the ground and began to cry again.

"People say that raising children to prevent old age, what am I raising, and I don't want a father and mother if I marry a daughter-in-law! Oh my God, open your eyes and see why I'm so miserable! ”

Xu didn't want her husband to be embarrassed, but the young woman grabbed the young man and shook her head at him.

The young man made up his mind, "I'm going to take you out of here, so that you won't be able to sleep at night, and you won't be bullied by them." ”

The young man dragged his daughter-in-law and left, but the man caught up with him and grabbed him.

"Bunny, if you dare to go out of this house, I'll discount your other leg!"

The more noisy it got down there, the more stiff it became, and the movement became louder and louder, and finally got into trouble. The back door clanged, and the four people in the backyard immediately realized that something was wrong, and the young man wanted to hide his daughter-in-law, but at this time the officers and soldiers had already broken in.

"Your daughter-in-law is from the Twelve Tribes of the Southwest, right?" The leader asked aloud.

The middle-aged man didn't speak at first, and then saw the leader with a fierce face, so he had to nod.

"Our border city is getting rid of bedbugs, don't you know?"

"This ......"

"Or maybe you're in the same league with those bed bugs in the Southwest?"

"No, no! How can it be! We are noble Xianbei people! ”

The leader snorted and waved at the person behind him, "Tie up that bed bug and escort it to the entrance of the vegetable market!" ”
