Cheng Junyao came back, but the hearts of the Cheng family were still not relieved.The occurrence of robbers on the border of the capital naturally needs to be reported to the government for resolution, but Guo Xinlian, who has not yet been found, is even more important.Not to mention that Guo Xinlian is a child of a relative's family, who had an accident in Cheng's family, and couldn't explain it to the Guo family, let alone resist the rumors outside, even if she was a child raised by her own family for many years, who would accept her appearance in a good manner? What's wrong?

While talking, the doctor also arrived, and treated Cheng Junyao.Cheng Junyao didn't suffer any serious injuries, except for some scratches and abrasions on her hands. The girl loves beauty, and after the wound heals, she can use some medicine to remove the scars. In comparison, it was more serious when she was frightened. The doctor told her A prescription for calming the nerves was prescribed.

Mrs. Cheng saw her granddaughter leaning pitifully in Liang's arms, and asked the doctor to wait here until Cheng Junze and Guo Xinlian came back, and at the same time said to Cheng Junyao: "Junyao was frightened today, go back and rest first! "

"Grandmother, my granddaughter can't feel at ease until my cousin comes back safely." Cheng Junyao shook her head quickly, "Grandma, don't worry about Junyao, Junyao is fine."

They went out together and encountered such a thing again. Mrs. Cheng also understood Cheng Junyao's mood at this time. She said she would stay here and wait for Guo Xinlian to come back, and Mrs. Cheng did not object.

In this way, almost an hour later, Cheng Junze came back with Guo Xinlian.

Guo Xinlian's condition looks worse than Cheng Junyao's, her face is pale, her cloak is gone, and her clothes are ripped and scratched, it's no better than Cheng Junyao who can cry out her grievances when she comes back. Guo Xinlian seemed to have only the weakness of the rest of his life after a catastrophe.

"Cousin—" Cheng Junyao persisted until this moment, and when she saw Guo Xinlian came back, she went up to her and wanted to hold her hand, but Guo Xinlian dodged subconsciously.Lu Hanzhi also noticed that Guo Xinlian was so weak that she couldn't stand up, but she even avoided the maid trying to help her, and couldn't help feeling cold. It seemed that Guo Xinlian hadn't been insulted, but she must have suffered a lot. Exciting, so that others do not want to approach.

"Pity girl—" Mrs. Cheng's heart ached when she saw it, and she stepped forward to hug Guo Xinlian.

Hearing Mrs. Cheng's voice, Guo Xinlian didn't run away.She was brought into Ningguo's mansion since she was a child, and the Cheng family would not treat her badly, but the only one she really trusted was Mrs. Cheng, her aunt. At this moment, being hugged by Mrs. Cheng, Guo Xinlian finally burst into tears, "Grandmother, Aunt, Lian'er is afraid—"

At Madam Cheng's age, she has taken a lot of things lightly, but she also loves the younger generation very much.Guo Xinlian usually lives in the mansion, and she often visits and jokes, and the forehead wipes that she sewed by herself during the year are often sent to her. The children who grow up around her are like granddaughters in the eyes of Mrs. Cheng .Mrs. Cheng is not very satisfied with the attitude of the Guo family, but she loves and cherishes Guo Xinlian. She only wants to find a suitable marriage for her, prepare a dowry for her, and marry her off well.

Now that the child has encountered such a thing and suffered such grievances, Mrs. Cheng's eyes are red with distress, "What kind of bastard is this, to do such a bastard!"

Mrs. Cheng accompanied Guo Xinlian to see the doctor, checked her injuries herself, watched her drink the medicine and fell asleep, and then asked Cheng Junze what happened.

Cheng Junze just took the teacup from Lu Hanzhi, held it in his hands to warm his hands, and replied: "My grandson found my cousin at a farmer's house outside the city, and they were forcing her to marry a man at the time. The grandson has already taken it, and it will be sent to Shuntian Mansion tomorrow morning!" As for why it was not sent overnight, of course he would be sent to an official if he committed such a thing, but he also had to take into account Guo Xinlian's reputation and let his family Let it out.

"So, it's not a gangster?" Ning Guogong was also waiting for the news, and he noticed this when he heard the words.

"My son hasn't had time to interrogate, but he doesn't look like a gangster." Cheng Junze shook his head. As for Cheng Junyao's mention that he met a robber, Cheng Junze didn't think it was strange. Cheng Junyao is a boudoir girl, so I'm afraid she can't tell the difference between the two, " It was a village outside the capital city, at the foot of Beishan Mountain, my son didn't know that there was such a village where unruly people gathered, some people stood guard at the entrance of the village, some pressed their heads to persecute them, and there were even those who shouted and made troubles in the bridal chamber."

Cheng Junze gasped when he thought of the situation in that village. If he hadn't been good at martial arts, had led the army for many years and brought people with him, he might have ended up in this village with a clear division of labor and a gathering of bullies.

Hearing what Cheng Junze said, everyone's expressions changed. Lu Hanzhi thought for a moment and said, "Is that village called Shangliang Village?"

"Hanniang knows?" Cheng Junze was a little surprised.

Lu Hanzhi said: "The fourth daughter of Zhang Hanlin's family married into Shangliang Village last year."

What Lu Hanzhi said, the men didn't understand much, but the women's family members all remembered such a thing.According to the custom of Da Chu, those who pass the Jinshi examination basically have to stay in the Hanlin Academy for a period of time. The official position of the Hanlin is not high, but it is also an official appointed by the court. The daughter of the Hanlin family is also a daughter of an official family. , It's no problem to say that it's about the same level.But the fourth daughter of Zhang Hanlin's family married into an ordinary farmer's family in Shangliang Village. At first, others thought that maybe this young man had outstanding talents, but after inquiring, they found out that he was just an ordinary hunter.

Lu Hanzhi knew a little more than others, and continued: "Before that, the fourth daughter of the Zhang family met with her friends and went to the temple to offer incense. On the way back to the city, the carriage broke down. At that time, my mother and I were passing by in a carriage. They went back to Beijing together, but they said it was too inconvenient to refuse. Not long after that, I heard that the fourth daughter of the Zhang family was engaged, and then married to Shangliang Village. I went to have a wedding with my mother, so I I heard people say that the carriage broke down that day, and it couldn't be repaired for a while, and then I ran into bandits, Miss Zhang Si was rescued by a hunter in Shangliang Village, so we got married."

The young man rescues each other with righteousness, and the girl agrees with her body. It sounds like a romantic and beautiful marriage, but when it comes to what Cheng Junze said, the fairy tale is full of dark colors.It was all the carriages that broke down for no reason, and it was all the time that the carriages broke down and they ran into the robbers. Is it really such a coincidence?Even thinking about it deeply, if Cheng Junze hadn't arrived in time today and brought Guo Xinlian back before the marriage ceremony, and Guo Xinlian was forced to worship with the other party and enter the bridal chamber, it would have been the Cheng family who had brought him back. What can I do now?Most likely, Guo Xinlian can only be married.

"It's too deceiving!" Mrs. Cheng slapped the table. One was her granddaughter and the other was her grandniece. They were all girls at the right age. She was worried about their marriage and their future, and she didn't insist on raising her granddaughter. The idea of ​​marrying a duke's family, but using such a despicable method to ruin a girl's life, she would never allow it no matter what.

"I was in a hurry to bring my cousin back today. My grandson didn't dare to fight. I'm afraid that after this encounter, the people over there have already tried every means to cover up their crimes." Cheng Junze's expression darkened.
