reborn child bride

Chapter 204: Hostage (2)
Shen Ji actually wanted to show up and say hello to him, but Mrs. Wei said that you had let the wind out that you were sick, and Mrs. Ma and others sent someone to deliver supplements. If you are a guest, you don't know what the outside world is like, so you have to give up.

As soon as Fatty Hu settled down, A Ling came to find him accompanied by Old Zhao.When Wei Ying went out, half of the young and strong family members were taken away.The rest are guarding the home in the periphery.Usually the old Zhaotou accompanied A Ling and other girls to go out.

"Greetings to Fat Master!" A Ling knelt down and saluted.

Fatty Hu waved his hand, "No, no. What does your grandma want to ask me?"

"Grandma will see you after she's polite. She asked Fat Master, what did Master invite Fat Master to do?"

Shen Ji, who was perfunctoryly told by Wei Ying once to "send someone to pick you up after you settle down", knew that Fatty Hu was coming at this moment, so of course he would not take it lightly.

Fatty Hu glanced at A Ling, "Your father asked me in the letter that if something happened to him, he would immediately send your grandma and aunt to the house in the capital, so as not to be murdered by the wicked." For this, he had already spent money. After buying the network and manpower, if there is really something to do, as soon as you hear the wind, you can take Shen Ji and others on the road.Ma Zhixian and others who have to be on guard must be wary of public opinion and official discussions after all, and dare not attack them immediately.And those robbers, as long as they have enough money, will naturally give way.Wei Ying had no money in hand, so he sent the contract document of the painting and calligraphy shop to Fatty Hu.For a prosperous shop in Beijing, the price is very objective whether it is sold or rented.Fatty Hu held it in his hands, planning to return it to him or send it to Shen later.But Shen Ji thought that Wei Ying took the two shops and the contract documents of [-] acres of land to exchange for military pay (to Qiu Chengming).

After hearing A Ling's return, Shen Ji said in distress: "Could it be that I can only wait at home when I come here, it's too tormenting." Unwilling and helpless, but this is the way of the world, women can only wait for news at home .And Wei Ying's retreat was so fully prepared, it only showed that he was not sure this time, and it might not be as good as what he told himself.A strong dragon can't beat a local snake. In Nanyuan County, a place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, Mazhi County has been operating with that bandit for many years, and it is no different from the Tu Emperor.Can Wei Ying and Lin Xiaowei beat them?
Shen Ji thinks too much all day long, doesn't think about food and drink, his energy is getting worse and worse, and he looks no different from a real patient.

Aunt Wei asked for a lottery and came back, and she won the lottery.Shen Ji tried his best to smile, there was also news about this mass suppression of bandits outside, but everyone had different opinions.The delivery of Wei Ying's letter was also delayed for many days, and they hadn't received any letter these days, so they didn't know what the situation was like.

Faced with Shen Ji's state, Aunt Wei became suspicious.She was not like this when she was waiting in the capital.Now I don't even care about eating.Aunt Wei also knows Shen Ji very well, as long as she has the conditions, she will definitely never tire of eating and loving.Just like her father was bored in the study all day long, she occasionally still has the mind to go out in the streets and alleys to find delicious food.And by such a coincidence, Fatty Hu came at this time.

Shen Ji waited for nearly ten days, and his emotions were about to collapse.When Aunt Wei questioned her, she grabbed her hand and told the truth about the trip.

"You two children, why are you hiding everything from me. In the worst case, let's not be this official..." Aunt Wei knew it was impossible after she said this. For Wei Ying, being an official has long been a thing of the past. It's that simple.It was still the concept that I had instilled in him since childhood that he must excel in the imperial examinations.Ever since he was seven years old and they settled down in the small village, Aunt Wei, who could not even read, knew that the only way to avenge his biological mother was to become an official. Only those who win glory can be truly valued and do what they want to do.

This road, Wei Ying walked better than she expected.She knew that Wei Ying's father was a well-known scholar who was good at reading, but he was awarded a Jinshi but not an official because of his poor health.She never doubted that Wei Ying would be good at reading.What she has been worried about is that she can't afford to support him to read.This problem was solved later with Sister Ji.Wei Ying passed the Tanhua exam and entered the Imperial Academy directly.But there are accidents in the sky and people have misfortunes and blessings overnight, and he was demoted here overnight.Now they have to face such a life-and-death test.

"The emperor resigned as soon as he was demoted. Brother Wei said that this is not acceptable, and it may cause disasters. Moreover, being an official is necessary to avenge his mother. Brother Wei is not only interested in revenge, he wants to be an official. I want my name to be left in the history books." Shen Ji pinched the bridge of his nose to calm himself down, "Auntie, maybe he is really a person who does great things, and he will turn bad luck into good fortune and make good fortune in death. Let's not worry too much."

Aunt Wei could only say at this time: "I hope so." She went to the room where the Bodhisattva was worshiped to burn incense, and Shen Ji followed for psychological comfort.

"Bodhisattva, please bless Brother Wei to be safe and sound. In the future, believers will do good deeds for the rest of their lives."

A Ling came in from the outside, "Grandma, Mrs. Ma invited a doctor she knew well to give you a pulse diagnosis, and she was accompanied by Manager Wang from the Ma residence."

Shen Ji raised his eyebrows, pretending to be sick was what Wei Ying had planned before he left.Otherwise, Mrs. Ma will not be able to refuse any invitations.Although the face was not torn apart, the two sides have actually reached a life-and-death situation.The previous pretense of harmony is naturally useless.However, Mrs. Ma is the wife of Shangfeng. If she invites her, Shen Ji can't refuse even if she uses the reason of touching the queer card.So, being sick is a good excuse to stay indoors.

However, Mrs. Ma invited someone to take her pulse, and it was not easy to refuse before the dust settled.

"Come in, please." Shen Ji could only say.She went back into the house, took off her coat and leaned against the head of the bed.Aunt Wei meant that she was indeed in a bad condition, and it was best to ask a doctor to come and see her, but let alone someone recommended by the Ma family.It's better to invite Dr. Lin, who runs a pharmacy on the street, to come over to the house later.This Dr. Lin is also called a benevolent doctor. He sent free medicine to the shed made by Shen Ji on the embankment so that they could boil it for civilians and soldiers every day to avoid contracting the epidemic, so he can be called a relative. cooked.This time Shen Ji pretended to be sick, which was also his doctor's order.Naturally, the medicine boiled in the yard every day was also taken from him.

The doctor's footsteps were heard outside, and A Ling came in to report again.Shen Ji looked at Aunt Wei who was anxious and couldn't sit still, and the latter stopped running around the room and came over and sat down on Shen Ji's bed.

A Ling invited the doctor in, took Shen Ji's right hand out from the tent, and covered her wrist with a silk handkerchief.The doctor stepped forward and sat down, stretching out his hand to take the pulse.Shen Ji felt a strong pinch on his veins, and then reached into the tent to pinch her neck.

"What are you doing?" Aunt Wei yelled, and stretched out her hand to pull the doctor. A Ling even turned around and picked up a stool and threw it on the man's back.It's just that both of them are women, so what kind of ability can shake the fake doctor who is attacking Shen Ji at this moment.Aunt Wei was kicked to the side of the screen, knocked down the screen, and did not get up for a long time.The stool in A Ling's hand shattered on the man's back, and she was knocked to the ground by the man's backhand.And Shen Ji's neck was pinched, and his eyes were almost turning white.
