Chapter 7: Homecoming

Waiting for Wen Wenhai to check everyone's pulse, he said with a smile: "Your body is fine, there is a little bruise in the body, and the external injuries are somewhat serious. After speaking, he took out some small bottles from his arms, handed them to Zhang Cai, and said: "This brother's arm is broken, I can't do anything, there is some silver here, you can take it to the doctor, it shouldn't be a big problem." After speaking, he took out some scattered silver from his arms and handed it over, Zhang Cai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't dare." ”

At this time, Zhang Xiaohu, whose eyes were blue, said: "Take it, Dad, we have received so much from Engong, and we don't care about such a little thing, it is also a little bit of Engong's heart, you can take it." ”

Zhang Cai turned around and blamed his son and said, "I have already taken the silver that those people paid just now, how can I receive the favor of the benevolent prince again?" After speaking, he took out the silver ticket he had just handed out from his arms, counted it carefully, but he was startled, there were forty or fifty silver tickets out of ten taels of silver tickets, and it was estimated that Humpty Dumpty was in a hurry and didn't dare to count them and took them out.

At this time, Wen Wenhai handed the silver to Zhang Xiaohu and said: "This kid has a bold temperament, which is very much in line with me, take it, it is someone else who compensates you, this is what I give to you." ”

Zhang Cai saw that Zhang Xiaohu was holding the silver, and he didn't blame him, and told Wen Wenhai about the silver ticket, after all, it was a huge amount of money, Zhang Cai didn't dare to deal with it privately, and he was afraid that those people would turn around and find trouble again, silver is a trivial matter, and his life is a big deal. Wen Wenhai looked at this huge amount of money, and smiled bitterly in his heart, according to his thoughts, he would have asked Humpty Dumpty to pay more than a dozen taels of silver, but he didn't know that his sister's nonsense had brought a lot of trouble to the family. He didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he walked to the side and discussed with his junior sister.

Zhang Xiaohua accompanied the injured eldest brother, his mood was not at all calm, his cheeks and the corners of his mouth were still hot and painful, and the impact of being bullied by bullies and almost dying on him, far from seeing Wen Wenhai falling from the sky, the scene of cleaning up those vicious dogs without much effort had a profound impact on him, he had not yet come out of the shock and injury, his eyes were staring at the sword in Wen Wenhai's hand, and the seed in his heart seemed to be quietly germinating.

The two village girls stood behind Zhang Cai, not knowing what they could do to express their gratitude, they wanted to thank the woman in purple, but looking at her appearance, they didn't dare to come closer, they only watched from afar.

The result of Wen Wenhai's discussion with his junior sister came out quickly, his junior sister took out a small token from her bag and handed it to him, Wen Wenhai didn't answer, and said two more words, but didn't seem to convince her, shook her head, reached out to take the token, turned around and walked in front of Zhang Cai, and said: " Uncle, you can still take this huge amount of money yourself, even if we take it, if they chase you you have no way to return it, this is a token of our sect, it is my junior sister to give you, if they find it to claim back the silver taels, you can return these silver tickets to them, and the scattered silver I gave is enough for you to heal. But if they have other ideas, you can take this token to the Lotus Dart Bureau's station in the town, find their principal, and say that the owner of the token asked you to find them, and if there is anything, just tell them. ”

After speaking, he handed the token in his hand to Zhang Cai, Zhang Cai carefully took the life-saving brand, and looked carefully, this is a three-inch black brand, very heavy, I don't know what material is cast, the surface is two wonderful words, Zhang Cai does not know, the side of the word is painted with strange patterns, and the back of the brand is a text "Qing" that Zhang Cai knows, I think it is the mark of Wen Wenhai's sister. Zhang Cai cautiously held the brand in his arms, pinched it uneasily, confirmed the existence of the brand, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Wen Wenhai waited for Zhang to put away the token, and then hugged his fists and said: "Everyone, we still have important matters, so we won't escort you back to the village, you can come to me when you have the opportunity to come to Pingyang City in the future, and there will be a period later." After speaking, without waiting for Zhang Cai and the others to speak, he turned around and got up and left with the woman in purple, looking at their figures, it seemed that they were usually very fast, and they disappeared from Zhang Cai's field of vision in a blink of an eye.

Coming out of Luzhen, from beginning to end, the woman in purple didn't say a word to them, nor did she open the mask, so Zhang Cai's family didn't even know her name or what she looked like, they only knew that she spoke very nicely.

When the two of them walked away, Zhang Cai and the others retracted their eyes, and Zhang Xiaohua muttered, "These two people are running so fast." ”

Zhang Xiaohu said: "I don't understand, Xiaohua, this is the legendary light work." ”

Zhang Xiaohua asked, "Have you seen it?"

Zhang Xiaohu said: "I haven't seen it, guess, you haven't seen that they didn't run, but they are faster than they are running, and they are still holding swords, which is probably light work." Zhang Xiaohua blinked and didn't ask again.

The two village girls came over and thanked Zhang Caishi: "Thank you uncle for saving your life, if there is no uncle, we will ......" The two said, tears rolled in their eyes, and they were afraid of what happened just now. Zhang Cai waved his hand and said, "They are all peasant families, and it is appropriate to help each other." Let's not talk so much, let's get out of here first, after a long time, it is inevitable that someone will come. Which village are you from?"

The tall village girl said: "We live in Baligou, my name is Liu Qian, and she is my cousin Liu Yueyue. ”

Zhang Cai pondered for a moment and said: "Baligou is in the west of Lu Town, if you have to go back through the town, this situation is better not to go to the town, if, from outside the town, it will be late at this time, and it is estimated that you will not be able to get home before dark." Girl, we live in Guozhuang, in the north of the town, why don't you come to our house for a night and send you back tomorrow?"

Liu Qian looked at the sky and said, "Then it's troublesome uncle." ”

Everyone then got up, took advantage of the early hour, dragged the injured body and hurried away, striving to return home as soon as possible.

Thirty miles is not very close to Zhang Cai, who is not injured, and besides, they have to walk around from the east side of Lu Town at this time. Needless to say, the difficulties along the way were needless to say, and when they returned to Guozhuang, it was already dark, and Zhang Cai originally wanted to pass through the small bamboo forest next to the village without attracting the attention of others.

Guo Zhuang in the dark is no different from before, there are few people on the path in the village, and occasionally people pass by without paying too much attention to them. This made Zhang Cai, who had always been worried about seeing his family in embarrassment, relieved a lot, until he walked to the fence door of his small courtyard and saw the child fucking under the lamp, he completely relieved his heart.

When the group pushed open the fence door and Yuguan walked into the house, the scene in front of them surprised Guo Sufei, who heard the sound of the door and got up to greet her, she felt that she stepped forward to support Zhang Cai, and said anxiously: "Master, what's going on?"

helped Zhang Cai to the chair and sat down, and hurriedly came over to see the child, "Son, it's nothing serious, right?"

zuihou, only to see that there were two girls I didn't know, I didn't dare to ask, and looked at Zhang Cai with puzzled eyes. Zhang Cai smiled bitterly and said: "The child is damn, it's not a big deal, it's not clear for a while, this child's name is Liu Qian, and that one is called Liu Yueyue, and it's from Baligou." You first take Xiaolong to Lao Chen with Xiaohua to see his arm, and then talk about it when he comes back. By the way, let Xiaolong and Xiaohua wash their faces first, and say that they fell from a tree. “

Guo Sufei was puzzled, and hurriedly got hot water from outside, let the two brothers wash up, and fetch water for Zhang Cai, but Zhang Cai stopped her and urged her to see the child's injuries first. Liu Qian also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Zhang Cai.

Lao Chen is the old veterinarian of Guozhuang, he has been in Guozhuang for a lifetime, his medical skills are not bad, he not only treats livestock on weekdays, many people have a headache and brain fever, and they also come to him. At this time, Lao Chen stayed in his hut, let the child and his mother scald a pot of wine for himself, and just started pouring himself a drink, he heard someone banging on his door anxiously, and called himself loudly, it is estimated that someone in the village is sick, so he had to put down the wine glass in his hand and get up to open the door. Lao Chen opened the door and saw that it was Guo Sufei's mother and son, and said with a smile: "Big sister, come to knock on the door so late, is the little guy eating too much and having diarrhea?"

Guo Sufei carefully helped Zhang Xiaolong into the door, and said embarrassedly: "Uncle child, Xiaolong was playing on the eastern slope tonight, and accidentally fell from a tree and broke his arm. ”

As soon as Lao Chen heard that Zhang Xiaolong's arm was broken, his face immediately straightened, and he said, "What are you talking about, big sister, the child is such a big thing, even if it is too late, I have to get up." Hurry into the house and let me see. After saying that, Lao Chen took them to a clean hut for patients. At this time, Lao Chen's family also came in, Lao Chen asked her to light the oil lamp, and then asked Zhang Xiaolong to take off the sleeve of the injured arm, looked at it carefully, pinched it here and there with his hand, asked Zhang Xiaolong how he felt, and then obviously breathed a sigh of relief. said to Guo Sufei: "Big sister, don't worry, it's not a big deal, it's just a fracture, usually those cows and horses have more serious fractures than this, I can get it right, Xiaolong is wrapped up in me." ”

The old Chen family said uneasily: "Old man, you just drank, it's okay, right?"

Lao Chen patted his chest: "I've been seeing a doctor for most of my life, what is this wine? Besides, I haven't started drinking it yet, don't believe it, you go and see my wine jug." ”

In fact, Guo Sufei had already smelled the smell of wine on Lao Chen's body, but there was only such a doctor in the village, so he could only rely on him. Lao Chen found a few wood chips that were cut very flat, and took out a porcelain jar from the cabinet, opened the seal, and immediately exuded a pungent and spicy smell from it. Lao Chen first used his hands to seriously help Xiaolong align the broken bones of his arm, and then took out the ointment from the jar, applied it evenly to Xiaolong's arm, wrapped it with a white cloth, and fixed it with a wooden board. Xiaolong, who was in pain during the whole process, gritted his teeth and sweated profusely, and Guo Sufei wiped it with a towel in distress.

After all this, Lao Chen washed his hands and said to Guo Sufei: "Big sister, take the child back to rest, come over to change the dressing in half a month, it will hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, and you can't move your hoe for a long time." ”

Guo Sufei thanked her and left some copper coins, so she returned home with her two children.
