Jiangshan is a matchmaker: Husband, please stay

Chapter 78
Pushing open the courtyard door, I saw the little boy staring at him with a pair of eyes that had lost the slightest expression, bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and his death was miserable.

She trembled in shock, took two steps back, and finally let out a cry after a while, "Little boy..."

"Ah, it's a war, it's a war, run away..."

Shouts came one after another, from this end of the town to the gate of Zhou's courtyard.

A member of the Liang family had already stepped forward and grabbed Liang Xiaodie, "Miss, hurry up, there is a war, we have to go out to avoid it."

"What nonsense, it's just recovered, and now it's a war?" Liang Xiaodie was frightened out of her wits by a series of shocks, her trembling arms grabbed the servant who rushed over, her face as big as a palm was completely bloodless.

"Really, it's true, miss, the housekeeper just received the news, let's go, the carriage is ready."

Miss Liang trembled all over in shock, she didn't care much, she turned around and grabbed Mr. Li and was about to run, but she still couldn't bear to let Su Jiu, who was lying on the ground without a soul, "Hey, can you go, there is a war , do you want to die here?"

Su Jiu's head buzzed, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He looked at Liang Xiaodie and shook his head after a long while, "I won't leave. I'll wait for Zhou Xiang to come back. Why did the boy die?"

"Hey!" Liang Xiaodie stomped her feet, and was about to grab Su Jiu, "Go, I will fight with you, now I can't do nothing now, the boy must have been killed by the enemy, I will take you for refuge. "

"I won't go, I won't go." Su Jiu pushed Liang Xiaodie away, and then pushed Young Master Li, "Hurry up and go!"

"Master Li is mine, so I will naturally take him away." Liang Xiaodie still didn't forget to be jealous at this time, and shook Su Jiu's hand away.

"Miss Su, leave here with me!" Mr. Li comforted.

"No, I don't, I want to know how Xiaotong died, I can't go."

"Hey, Miss Su, I didn't see who it was, I just saw a man in black running out, and then Xiaotong... Miss Su..."

"coax!"

In the distance, a burst of dust was instantly raised, and the flames shot into the sky, as if someone had ignited gunpowder and blown up the entire town, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains.

Liang Xiaodie stomped her foot and pinched Su Jiu, "I'll take you home, it should be that I'm still worried about you at this moment. Mr. Li, are you willing to come with me?"

Mr. Li shook his head, "I'm going to take a look at my friend's house, I'm afraid something will happen."

"Okay, let's get together after the matter is over, hey, Su Jiu, hurry up!" Liang Xiaodie pulled Su Jiu's wrist with great strength, lifted the hem of her skirt, surrounded by servants and maids, run away.

After getting into the carriage, a large number of refugees fled around the town one after another. In an instant, the Liang family's carriage was submerged in a group of fleeing people.
The carriage drove quickly, and the servant who was driving kept turning his head to report the situation ahead to Liang Xiaodie. For a while, it was barbarians wielding knives and stabbing people, for a while it was refugees fleeing, for a while there were soldiers chasing them, and they did not see the scene outside the carriage. Su Jiu and Liang Xiaodie could already feel the noise and panic outside, and even heard shouts resounding all over the field.

I thought that the battle was far away from me, even if it was a frontier fortress around her, I would not be involved in the fight, but I didn't want to, after a few days, those riotous barbarians once again affected my side.Su Jiu clasped the door tightly, trying to sit up straight.

Liang Xiaodie was so frightened that she shivered all over, shrank into a ball, and said to Su Jiu with concern, "Don't be afraid, I will be at Youxia Mountain in a while, and I will send you home safely."

"Thank you!" Su Jiu whispered.

"Thank you. I don't need it. I just feel a little sorry for being strict with you a few times. In fact, I don't really want to target you. I just don't want to see Brother Zhou Xiang being snatched away. You also know that he treats me badly on weekdays." Whether it's cold or not, I'm very anxious, and because the Zhou family and the Liang family have no relationship at all, it's really difficult to get closer, but..." Liang Xiaodie looked at Su Jiu lightly, and said, "However, It's not needed now, because I know that I can't force others to be difficult, so... don't blame me for doing it to you in the past."

Su Jiu didn't listen to Liang Xiaodie's apology at all, he couldn't get over the death of the little boy just now, and repeated it in his heart again and again, those terrified eyes seemed to be telling her something that only the little boy knew.

Su Jiu nodded, "I know."

"It's good to know, just don't worry, the little boy was killed by the barbarian, brother Zhou Xiang will definitely avenge her."

"Barbarian?" Su Jiu was surprised.

"Yeah, who would it be if it wasn't a barbarian? The town has always been very safe. There aren't even thieves, let alone murderous bandits!"

"..." Su Jiu lowered his head and remained silent, thinking why Manzi just killed the little boy and escaped, why didn't she see any of them? !

At noon that day, the carriage finally arrived at Ranger Mountain.

"Su Jiu, I'm leaving first. You're home, go home quickly, don't come out and run around, I'm going to take refuge too."

Before Su Jiu recovered from his panic, he nodded blankly to Liang Xiaodie, "Thank you!"

"Thank you, I'm leaving because you're not bad!" Liang Xiaodie looked at the flames on the other side of the mountain, shrank her head, and growled at the boy who was driving, "Go, let's go!" Let's take refuge."

Liang Xiaodie wanted to say something more, but Su Jiu ran away without waiting for her to speak.

The mountain village of Youxia is still peaceful and peaceful, without the slightest impact of the war inside. On the way, I met a country man carrying a hoe to dig sweet potatoes in the field. Seeing Su Jiu rushing away, they all frowned, "This girl, you are so wild!" very!"

"Hey, if you don't run away at this juncture, how many sweet potatoes can you dig out from those fields?" the man asked to the old man beside him.

"It's good to be able to dig a little bit, so I can have something to eat when I escape. Let's go, I escaped before dark. This is not a place for people to stay."

The two of them gradually drifted away, Su Jiu also came out from there, and vented his grievances at the two of them, "I thought we were fine here, hmph, two money lovers, caring about the sweet potato, beware of being caught as a pawn." Coolie, oh, I have to go home quickly. Xiaoshan...father...mother..."

Running all the way, Su Jiu called anxiously all the way, and saw his own small yard from a distance, with green smoke curling up inside, and a busy little figure.

"The hill!"

"Sister, you're back." Xiao Shan came out with a soup bowl in his hand, "Hurry up and eat, it's already cooked."

"Where are father and mother?"

"Father and mother escaped, and I will stay and wait for you to go together. Father said that we have a refuge in the next village and told us to go too."

"When did you escape? Did you hear about the barbarians making trouble?"

"Yes, I knew you would come back because of this matter, so I will stay and wait for you."

"Then the Liu family... are they still looking for trouble for us?"

"It's all right, don't worry, sister, let's eat, and we can go on our way after eating."

"Tell me, what's going on at Liu's house?"

"Hey..." Xiao Shan smiled mysteriously.

"Say it, don't make sister worry."

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with the Liu family."

"Nonsense, the Liu family is so troubled, how can it be all right? Tell your sister the truth. Now because of the war on the frontier, you can't take care of both sides. You can make it clear." Su Jiu was anxious. Because of one thing after another, his mouth was full of blisters.

"Because I wrote a letter to the lord, and the deputy general said that we are sure to be fine and reassured us. He also told us to take refuge in the army, but I refused."

"Write a letter? To Nie Wuhuan? Oh, bastard...you, you are so confused..."

"What's the matter? Sister, the prince should know about such things, otherwise you told our family to escape from the Liu family while fleeing?"

"I, no, I, hey!" Su stomped his feet in a drunken air, "I don't want to have anything to do with Nie Wuhuan. Doesn't your doing so mean that I have to get involved with him? How can I repay such a favor?"

"Sister, the lord is so kind to you, what are you resisting? I don't care, I sent the letter anyway, how simple this matter is, as long as the lord can settle it with a word, why bother to make the family suffer along with it?" ?!"

Su Jiu was helpless, Xiao Shan also said it was right, it would be better to write a letter to ask Nie Wuhuan to settle the matter, but he didn't want to be involved with Nie Wuhuan again because of this matter, especially since her heart had already been broken. I have made up my mind not to have close contact with Nie Wuhuan.Now it seems that it has backfired.

After eating the tasteless food, Su Jiu choked on a mouthful of dry steamed buns, and said to Xiao Shan, "Little boy is dead."

"What?" Xiao Shan stared at her in disbelief, "Sister, you said Miss Xiaotong is dead, don't scare me, Miss Tong is Brother Zhou's maid, how could she die?!"

"It's true. I saw it with my own eyes. I was too frightened at the time, so I didn't take care of it. Now that I think about it, why didn't I drag the boy into the room. Hey, Xiaoshan, go back with my sister. Carry the little boy into the house, and when Zhou Xiang comes back, we have to help him take care of the little boy's offspring, otherwise I will feel uneasy."

Remembering that the little boy was still talking to himself with a smile just a moment ago, and that such a big living person died there in the blink of an eye, Su Jiu couldn't believe that was the truth, but when he thought of the big eyes of the little boy, he felt lifeless and terrified. Looking at himself, Su Jiu felt a chill in his heart, unable to sit still no matter what.

"Sister, what happened? Could it be that the barbarians really broke in? But why did Miss Xiao Tong..."

Xiao Shan only heard the elders say that the war had started, but he didn't see Manzi's figure, so he still didn't believe it. Now when he heard it, he felt weak and couldn't help himself because of the tension.

"Sister, I'm very scared, but I still have to go. After all, Miss Xiaotong is very kind to us, why don't we go now!" Xiao Shan said to Su Jiu pretending to be calm while holding the soup bowl and almost knocking it over because of fright.

"Well, pack it up, pack it up, let's go there now." Su Jiu patted the oil in his hands, got up, straddled the package and pulled the hill to leave.

"Sister, was it true that Miss Xiaotong was killed by a barbarian?" Xiao Shan didn't care too much. He threw the soup bowl and ran forward, not forgetting to ask, "Sister, you can't be mistaken, are you lying to me?"

"What did you lie to you? I was also scared. Hey... I don't know what's going on. Things were a little messy at the time. Now that I think about it, it's a bit weird. No matter how much it is, let's go and have a look."

"Oh, let's hurry up, or it will be dark, and I'm afraid it will be unsafe."

"Yes, let's go!"

"Hey, sister, what do you think is going on there?"

Following the direction pointed by the hill, Su Jiu looked around, and his heart sank.
