Second-hand lady

Chapter 60

The child did not wake up, and Ru Cui was also a little worried, but on the second day, her breathing became more stable. The doctor said it was a good thing, proving that she had survived, but it was still dangerous, so she had to be taken care of carefully. As for when she would wake up , it is difficult to say.

The doctor said that the child was originally thin and malnourished, and there were traces of abuse on his body. I don’t know how old it was. This time, the injury was so severe that his body seemed to be hollowed out, and he was extremely weak. I still don't know if I can wake up.

After hearing this, Rucui knew that after the child's parents were killed by robbers, life would be very difficult later on, so she immediately felt pity for her.

Because of the child's injury, they stayed in Ningcheng for two days.For two days, Rucui stayed in the inn to take care of the injured child. Wen Liang went to the government house a few times, and soon heard that all the bandits near Rongguang Temple were surrounded by officers and soldiers. The people near Ronghua Temple were all rejoicing. I think this year will be a good year.Contrary to the joy of the common people, those local officials in the villages and towns near Rongguang Temple have colluded with the robbers. It is estimated that this year will be very panic.

The child hasn't woken up yet, Wen Liang sees that it will be New Year's Eve in a few days, which is a lot behind the original estimated time, and the road from Ningcheng to Pingjin is still two days away, Wen Liang can't help feeling a little anxious, not He is willing to spend the first year of his marriage with Miss Rucui on the road, and he also wants to take Miss Rucui back to his grandmother's house to show them.

Wen Liang thought for a while, and then went to ask the doctor if the child's current physical condition could go on the road.The doctor also knew that they were going back to Pingjin to visit relatives, so he pondered for a while and told them that as long as the road was not bumpy and the patient didn't have a fever again, then it was still possible.Another thing to say is that the child has been groggy and has not woken up. Wen Liang and the others are a little worried, thinking of going to Pingjin to hire famous doctors to treat him.Ningcheng is only a small city, and the doctor's medical skills are not comparable to those of Pingjin. I only hope that after arriving in Pingjin, the child can be cured as soon as possible. She hasn't recovered her sanity for a day, and she hasn't been out of danger for a day.

After getting the doctor's words, Wen Liang asked someone to pack a more comfortable carriage, which was padded with a lot of soft cotton and fur mattresses, so that she could go to Pingjin comfortably.

When they were packing up and preparing to leave, they did not expect that the Tan family who had been waiting for them for a long time would come to Ningcheng to pick them up in person.

The person sent by the Tan family in Pingjin is Tan Jichuan, the eldest son of the current eldest son of the Tan family, and the oldest descendant of the younger generation of the Tan family, who Wen Liang wants to call big cousin.

"Big cousin, why are you here?" Wen Liang looked very surprised.

At this time, their carriage stopped in front of the inn, and they were about to set off. Who knew that Tan Jichuan would suddenly appear with the servants of the Tan family.If it weren't for Wen Liang's outstanding memory, I'm afraid I wouldn't recognize this big cousin who hasn't been seen for several years, especially this cousin has changed too much.

Wen Liang didn't recognize anyone, but Tan Jichuan had a deep memory of this cousin.According to the Tan family, the cousin who looks so much like his aunt is the most beautiful in the world. He is so romantic and eye-catching, which makes the little girls fight for him regardless of their reserve, which is deeply in their memory.And because Wen Liang's face resembled his mother's, he became the darling of the ancestors of the Tan family, looking forward to his return every year.

And this time, Wen Liang will take Miss Rucui back to Pingjin to celebrate the new year by recovering from his illness. Firstly, he wants to avoid the rumors in Beijing, secondly, he is tired of the strong behavior of the Zhenguo government forcing him to divorce his wife and take concubines, and secondly, he heard that his grandmother recently After a serious illness, he kept chanting his name on the hospital bed, which made him feel sour and missed him a lot.Wen Liang also knew that as a descendant of the Wen family, it was extremely inappropriate for him to go to his mother's family to celebrate the New Year years ago. No matter how high-sounding his reasons are, it will make people sick.But he has always done things absurdly, and he feels that there is no shortage of such absurd things.

"Zixiu, long time no see, you still haven't changed much." You are still so beautiful.The eldest cousin teased unkindly in his heart, and then said: "According to what you said in your letter, you should have arrived in Pingjin two days ago, but you have not been seen. I came over to have a look."

Wen Liang felt guilty after hearing this, originally he didn't want them to worry that Fang had concealed the encounter with the robbers, and the child's injury was too serious, which made the couple feel a little flustered, so they forgot to send a letter first. Tan family.

Then Rucui also came over to greet her, and by the way, meet her eldest cousin.The eldest cousin of the Tan family is a stable man with a simple and honest face, but he is not really simple and honest. After talking to him a few words, he responded appropriately, giving him the demeanor of a disciple of a big family.

For this cousin, Tan Jichuan couldn't help but take a second look, and politely returned a salute with a smile on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.Miss Rucui knew cousin Tan's scrutinizing gaze, which was much better than the disdainful gaze of the Duke of Zhenguo's, so she responded with a smile, advancing and retreating gracefully, which made cousin Tan very surprised.Originally, I thought that a woman who was born as a maid would be a bit petty, but I didn't expect to be so calm.

Wen Liang naturally saw the big cousin's surprise, and smiled secretly in his heart, his maid was very calm towards everyone.

On the next journey, an extra cousin accompanied me, which added a bit of excitement.

Rucui and two maids took care of the injured child in the carriage, Wen Liang and Tan Jichuan rode forward together, and told him the reason for their delay on the way.At the beginning, Tan Jichuan was really worried when he heard that they encountered robbers in Rongguang Temple. After hearing from his cousin that traps were set up in the temple, and fierce battles with robbers in the middle of the night, he felt thrilled. Finally, he heard about the righteous deed of the injured child in the car to save people. endlessly.

If you ride a horse and gallop directly, you can travel from Ningcheng to Pingjin in one day, but now there is an injured person in the car, so the journey is extremely slow.

A day later, they arrived in a small town, where they fought their way to the top.

After Wen Liang carried the comatose child to the bed in the inn, he immediately asked the doctor from the town to show the child, because the child started to have a fever again.

Ru Cui eyebrows were a little worried, the doctor's statement was the same as Ning Cheng's, as long as the child is not awake, it is not out of danger.

After the doctor finished treating the child, Ru Cui asked the doctor to show Wen Liang again.

"Zixiu's illness is still not cured?" Tan Jichuan was a little dazed.

Rucui gave him a strange look, and replied: "Okay, but my husband has been seriously ill. I have been in a hurry for more than ten days and have not taken care of him. In addition, I have encountered too many things in the past few days. I am worried that he will suffer. I can't help it." Then he looked at a certain Wen who was coughing repeatedly because of choking on tea with a look of "Master Wen, you are so pitiful and you have lost weight and become more delicate".

Tan Jichuan's expression became even more strange, and then he gave Miss Rucui a weird look. When she took the maid to the kitchen to cook medicine and arrange Wen Liang's meal smoothly, cousin Tan couldn't help but move closer to his cousin, and said in a low voice: : "Zixiu, this cousin seems to be easy to deceive." How can such a simple temperament restrain those treacherous and powerful people in the town government's mansion?
Look, they were all fooled by the fox-like Wen, who even thought that someone who could ride a horse for half a day in the winter without any problems was still very sick.

Wen Liang coughed, and said very innocently: "Big cousin, she just cares about my affairs a little bit, other times...it's pretty good." It should be said that it is quite aggrieved.

Although Tan Jichuan could hear what he meant, but he had no contact with him and didn't know what he was referring to, but what is certain is that this cousin definitely has something special, otherwise she wouldn't be as cunning as a fox The cousin rushed to make the marriage in front of everyone.

After resting in the small town for one night, they arrived in Pingjin on time the next evening.

Pingjin is an ancient city with a lot of historical charm, and it is also the largest city in the central area of ​​the Great Chu Kingdom. Although it is cold and freezing, there are many people on the street, and because it is the 28th of the Lunar New Year, people who go to the city to buy New Year’s goods Not a lot.

The Tan family is located in a quiet alley in the east of Pingjin City, with a vermilion gate, in front of the gate there are two huge stone suanni, and not far away is a thick old tree. Still very green.

The gate was open, and there were a few young men waiting there. Seeing a group of carriages and horses approaching, the young men recognized the eldest young master riding on the horse at the front, and they all showed joyful expressions. The clever young men hurried back Go to the mansion to report to the masters and wives that the young master has returned with the young master.

Wen Liang raised his head and looked at the Tan Mansion. He has deep feelings for this place, even the mansion of Zhen Guogong where he was born is not comparable to that, and he spent the most difficult period of his life here.It can be said that if the government of Zhen Guo gave him only pain, then what the Tan family brought him was the warmth of family, although he knew that these were all due to his mother's relationship.

Wen Liang took a deep breath, and got off the horse with Tan Jichuan.

As soon as he got off the horse, he saw the elder of the Tan family coming out with two brothers, followed by a few female relatives who hurriedly followed, all looking at him with joy.

"Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Zixiu is back." Wen Liang stepped forward to salute the elders, and then greeted the female relatives behind him one by one with a smile.

Although the road is full of dust and fatigue, some people are naturally beautiful, which makes people unforgettable.Everyone saw such a handsome and flawless man, although he hadn't seen him for a few years, he was not as handsome as he remembered, and he couldn't forget it even if he wanted to, let alone a woman, even a man sometimes couldn't help it after looking at it for a long time Heart palpitations, especially when he greets people with a smile, no one can escape his charm.

So before the men could respond, the female relatives couldn't help but squeezed over. They all put on the airs of elders and pulled the man over. With choked faces and moved, they began to ask him how many years of life he had lived for a few years, and then they all looked at each other. Distressed to say that he suffered and so on, so that the original words of the group of elders blocked their throats, and they could only stare blankly.

This happened until Miss Rucui got out of the carriage. After someone noticed her, someone called out immediately.

"Where is Brother Liang's daughter-in-law?" The eldest aunt asked with a smile: "Brother Liang is the one we look up to, and we were unable to have a glass of wedding wine and see Brother Liang's daughter-in-law because of the long distance when we married our daughter-in-law. "There is regret in the voice.

Wen Liang took the opportunity to break away from the enthusiastic female elders, and hurried over to bring his daughter-in-law over, and asked her to greet the elders one by one.

"Okay, Brother Liang is back safely. The weather is cold, and the ancestors are still waiting. Let's go in first." The old master of the Tan family said.

The Grand Master's words were extremely dignified, and everyone responded obediently.

Wen Liang did not forget his future adoptive daughter, and hurriedly said: "Uncle, there is an injured child in the car, please ask the best doctor in the city to show her."

Several people were shocked when they heard that there were still injuries, but now is not the time to ask, Elder Tan reacted very quickly, and immediately ordered his servants to invite the doctor from Shun'an Hall in the city to come to the mansion.
