Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 192 It's okay, I'm here
Pingcheng.

It leaked late at night and the wind was biting.

White lanterns fluttered in the wind, and the soul-calling bell hanging on the eaves sounded a sweet sound, which became clearer and clearer in the empty and silent streets.

"Husband, where is the eldest girl?"

The people standing guard under the lamp saw the guards sending Bai Jing back and hurriedly greeted him.

"Fifth Young Master, I'm offended." The guard unblocked Bai Jing's acupuncture points. He had been suppressing the emotion that was just waiting for the dike to be broken, and it completely exploded at this moment.

He pushed the guard hard and started to curse.

But looking at the women who gathered around him, he still suppressed his emotions, not wanting to worry them because of himself, but his face turned red and his forehead was covered with veins because of his efforts to endure it.

Fifth sister-in-law Cui thought he was uncomfortable, so she quickly stepped forward to support him: "Husband, does the wound hurt?"

Bai Jing shook her head and squeezed out two dry words from her blocked throat: "It doesn't hurt."

Ms. Cui was frightened and asked with a choked voice: "Then what's wrong with you?"

Bai Jing took Cui's hand and took a few deep breaths before her mood calmed down.

He looked at everyone, and tried his best to keep his tone calm under the concerned eyes of everyone: "We collected a total of 10,000+ corpses, but Xiaoqi was not seen. Mingwei stayed in Yinshan and continued to search for Xiaoqi."

"Didn't find it?" Yu Jiao's expression was very complicated, indescribable, like crying, laughing, and relieved, but then it was mixed with a bit of panic.

could not find it?

Alive or no bones left?
Bai Jing nodded: "But we found Xiao Qi's jade pendant. The jade pendant ribbon was cut off by the blade. I guess it was dropped by Xiao Qi when he was fighting with someone."

Yu Jiao took a deep breath: "So my husband was on the battlefield at that time, so I accidentally left my jade pendant behind, but my husband's body could not be found. Mingwei thought that my husband was still alive, so she went to look for it all night..."

Bai Jing nodded again, his expression was very solemn, worried, frightened, worried... but there was no trace of joy.

No one showed any expressions of joy. Perhaps for them, the only way to avoid despair is to not give up hope until the dust settles.

Yu Jiao's mood was not excited at all.

She was so calm, like a soulless body.

Seeing her like this, Bai Jing couldn't help but comfort her: "Seventh brother and sister, if you want to cry, then cry out, don't hold it in."

Yu Jiao shook his head: "Thank you for your concern, Fifth Brother. Now is not the time to cry."

Bai Jing was speechless for a moment, and suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Everyone in the audience seemed to be soberer and stronger than him.

He alone is shackled by the feeling of guilt and finds it difficult to escape.

The second sister-in-law, Mrs. Ren, saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she changed the subject: "The night is cold and windy, have you made sufficient preparations for your night trip?"

Bai Jing thought for a while and said, "Mingwei left in a hurry, I'm afraid he wasn't fully prepared."

Yu Jiao took over the conversation: "It's better to prepare things to keep out the cold, hot water, and charcoal fire. When Mingwei comes back, she can warm up in time. I'll prepare them for her."

After saying that, Yu Jiao went down.

Mrs. Cui looked at Yu Jiao's leaving figure and couldn't help but let out a sigh.

She asked Bai Jing: "Are you hungry, husband? The porridge is hot on the stove. I will help you go there. After dinner, I will change your husband's dressing."

Bai Jing did not refuse and returned to the room with Cui.

Bai Xiuying was lying on the bed recovering from her injuries, while Xiao Chuanyi was keeping vigil in the mourning hall, where there were only a few sisters-in-law.

The third sister-in-law, Mrs. Gao, looked worried: "Is the eldest girl okay? It's a cold night. She is alone in the mountains looking for her seventh brother, but we can't help."

The fourth sister-in-law, Mrs. Zheng, also had a worried look on her face: "That Yinshan Mountain... It makes my hair stand on end just thinking about it now. Will the big girl be scared?" The sixth sister-in-law, Mrs. Yang, clenched the handkerchief in her hand: "It's useless to worry, what are we doing? I can’t help you, and I don’t know when the eldest girl will come back.”

Ms. Ren comforted everyone: "Don't think blindly. All we can do is trust the eldest girl and wait for her to come back. If there is still no news tomorrow, we will think of other ways."

Several sisters-in-law nodded in unison.

Third sister-in-law Gao said: "Fifth brother has not recovered yet. Today he went to Yinshan Mountain again. He needs to be taken good care of. For the time being, we can only rely on spreading justice. I will prepare more charcoal fire/hot soup for him. Don't let him go." He was freezing."

Fourth sister-in-law Zheng quickly answered: "Third sister-in-law, I will go with you."

The sixth sister-in-law, Yang, glanced at the second sister-in-law, and then said: "Today, the people gave us some pieces of mink skin. I went to make them into cloaks for Chuanyi to wear. It is cold and he is young. I am afraid that his body will not be able to bear it." .”

Mentioning Xiao Chuanyi, Mrs. Ren's eyes were full of heartache: "I will go with you."

So, everyone dispersed.

In the mourning hall, Xiao Chuanyi knelt respectfully in front of the soul. After listening to the guard's report, he kowtowed three times seriously: "Grandfather, father... please bless my eldest aunt to find my seventh uncle and return safely."

……

late at night.

A clear and cold crescent moon hangs in the distance in the sky. The moonlight is cold, illuminating the surrounding fields into a silvery silence.

The cave in the heart of the mountain is dark and humid, with moss-covered rock walls and deep and narrow entrance, but no cold wind can blow in.

At the bottom of the cave where he could not see his fingers, Bai Mingwei curled up on the ground, unconscious.

Feng Qingchen reached out to touch her forehead, but accidentally got the blood on her hand.

His forehead was hot. When he wiped the blood he had left with a handkerchief, his fingertips seemed to be on fire, making his fingers tremble.

"It's okay, I'm here."

Feng Qingchen said softly, with a solemn promise in his faint tone.

When he fell, he protected Bai Mingwei in his arms at the most critical moment, causing injuries on top of each other, leaving him covered in bruises.

Such a height and unexpected surprise still caused both of them to faint.

However, he woke up first, but he didn't care about the scars all over his body, and found Bai Mingwei immediately.

The darkness was no obstacle to him. He moved to Bai Mingwei's side and held Bai Mingwei in his arms, who was unconscious at the bottom of the cold and wet cave.

"Looking at you, I know you are trying to be brave. You even said it was a minor injury and didn't care about it. Are you feeling hot now? Really, you should be beaten..."

Feng Qingchen stretched out his finger and lightly flicked Bai Mingwei's forehead.

The person in his arms was trembling slightly, and his whole body was hot, as if he had been fished out of water.

He carefully pulled on his cloak and reached for the medicine bottle.

"Mother..."

The person in his arms groaned, but suddenly stretched out his arms to hug him.

He was startled, his back stiffened, and he did not move for a long time - for fear of startling the sleeping person, and also as if he was worried that he would wake up from a sweet dream prematurely.

Sensing this change in his heart, he raised a helpless smile on his lips.

Even though he knew it was just an accident and he was mistaken for someone else, he was still stunned by it.

Obviously, he seemed to be crazy. He was so disturbed by this small hug. Where was the calmness and self-control he had in the past?

This little woman, this little woman, could always easily step on his weak spot and make him defeated.
