Guangxin City.
In the alley in the east alley of Guangxin City, the woman saw Sister-in-law Lu holding a child in one hand and carrying a basket in the other, busy working, and couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law Lu, where are you going?"
"Aunt Liu, it's you!"
Sister-in-law Lu looked up and was surprised to find that the person speaking was her neighbor Aunt Liu.
Pointing to the front, he said with a smile, "I'm about to go to the street to deliver food to the child's father!"
"Oh I got it."
Aunt Liu nodded, suddenly enlightened.
Then he looked at the child and praised, "This child's father married you. He is really lucky!"
Sister-in-law Lu's lips curled up and she smiled inwardly, but she looked a little embarrassed on the outside. She lowered her head and replied, "Look at what Aunt Liu said, she is too flattering to me."
Perhaps she could see her embarrassment, but Aunt Liu did not stop there, but continued, "Auntie did not say this alone. No one in Dongxiang knows that the Lu family has a good wife, no matter how small the job is.
He is proficient in all aspects of hard work and making money to support his family. If Lu Dalang hadn’t married you, he might not be as promising as he is!"
…
Aunt Liu praised her so much that Sister-in-law Lu was at a loss and hurriedly found an excuse to leave, "Aunt Liu, I am busy delivering food to the child's father, so I won't talk to you anymore."
"Hey! Why are you leaving now?"
Aunt Liu looked at her leaving figure, whispered softly, and then waved to her, "Sister-in-law Lu, walk slowly!"
The child that Sister-in-law Lu was holding was the child that Ling Yun and Yang Sanniu had saved that day. Because of the last accident, her husband Lu Zixing was worried about her taking the child out to sell, so he took over the burden of selling.
come over.
She came here precisely to deliver food to her husband.
Sister-in-law Lu is a reckless person. Because Lu Zixing wants to take the imperial examination, she is responsible for everything in the family. She not only has to take care of her children and husband, but also goes to the streets to earn money to supplement the family income. It can be said that she is a hard worker.
My husband, Lu Zixing, was a scholar. He barely passed the county examination three times and became a child student. However, he was not so lucky in the government examination and failed many times.
Sister-in-law Lu came to her husband and put the vegetable basket at his feet, "Lang Lu, this is the meal prepared for you. I'll watch it. You can eat first!"
Lu Zixing glanced at the vegetable basket at his feet, shook his head slightly, and sighed, "Hey! I'm so hungry that I really don't want to eat!"
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Are you worried that the food is not to your liking? If the food is not to your liking, I will go back and make it again for you."
Sister-in-law Lu frowned. Although she was illiterate, because her husband was a scholar, she could hear some of her husband's literate words over time.
Lu Zixing shook his head, "No! No! It's not that my wife's food doesn't suit my appetite, but it's actually my husband who can't appetite me."
Sister-in-law Lu paused and asked in confusion, "Why is this? Could it be that the things were not sold today?"
Sister-in-law Lu didn't think much about it, thinking that he had nothing to sell, which made her feel depressed. But this was not the first time this happened, so why should she worry about it.
Of course, Sister-in-law Lu was also aware of her husband's temperament. She was a scholar and did not like merchants, but after the accident that day, she was worried that she would do it alone, so she took it upon herself to take over the burden of selling.
Who would have thought that as a child, he couldn't save his face, and except for acquaintances who would take care of him, he had almost no business to speak of, which led to a drastic decline in business, which was terrible to watch.
Lu Zixing couldn't make any money, so she began to complain about herself and doubt her abilities. She said that this was a typical case of trying to save face and suffering.
But as a woman, how could she dare to speak so bluntly, and because her husband was so proud, she had no choice but to comfort her, "Lu Lang, it's normal for things not to sell. You don't have to worry too much."
"Why!"
Lu Zixing sighed and said nothing.
Sister-in-law Lu curled her lips and said rather displeasedly, "Speak out if you have something to say, why hide it? If you ask me, you scholars are troublesome. My family has to beat around the bush every time they say something. You are not tired of it."
Sister-in-law Lu has always been straightforward and will say whatever she has to say, so when she heard these words, Lu Zixing's mouth dropped and he was immediately speechless.
After a long pause, he pursed his lips and said, "Madam, this is not the reason for my husband."
Sister-in-law Lu was stunned, "What is that?"
Lu Zixing said solemnly, "Mr. I just heard that something happened to our Lord Zhizhou."
"What?"
Sister-in-law Lu was shocked and said in disbelief, "Lu Lang, what you just said was that something happened to our Lord Zhizhou?"
"Um!"
Lu Zixing nodded silently.
Sister-in-law Lu opened her mouth, lowered her head and said to herself, "How is it possible? How could something happen to our Lord Zhizhou!"
He turned around and raised his head, "Quickly tell me, what happened to our Lord Zhizhou?"
In Sister-in-law Lu's impression, she had never met Mr. Zhizhou, but she knew that it was Mr. Zhizhou who destroyed Heiyun Village and eradicated the Yang Mansion.
These two things alone were enough to make her think of Lord Zhizhou.
Now that Heiyun Village has been destroyed, most married women go home to visit their relatives. They no longer have to worry about being in danger on the road. The Yang family has been destroyed. Women take to the streets and no longer have to worry about being oppressed by Yang Zhengde... The new magistrate has only been here for a few months, but in just a short time
In a short period of time, you can do things that you can't do in Zhizhou.
Although she was a woman, she was aware of Lord Zhizhou's kindness to them. Now when she heard her husband's words, she couldn't help but panic.
Lu Zixing told the news he heard in detail. After hearing this, Sister-in-law Lu was shocked and at a loss. She even swallowed, "Lu Lang, what should I do? How could our Lord Zhizhou be suddenly hit by an arrow?"
Lu Zixing stood up quickly, took Sister Lu's hand, and comforted her, "Madam, don't worry. My husband heard that Lord Zhizhou has been recuperating at the Shangsi County Government Office. I think there shouldn't be any big problems."
Sister-in-law Lu's mood gradually calmed down, and she turned to look at Tujiabao. She gritted her teeth and said, "This... Tujiabao is really abominable. He dares to hurt our Lord Zhizhou. If it weren't for a woman from the Nu family, I would have to seek justice!"
…
When the news of Ling Yun's injury came back, there was an uproar and indignation in Guangxin City. Especially those who had received Ling Yun's favor wanted to pick up their swords and go to Tujia Fort to demand justice.
In the small courtyard, the man hesitated for a long time, and finally picked up the sword box that had not been opened for many years. He gently passed the sword box with his right hand and whispered softly, "Old man, I haven't seen you in a long time. How are you?"
Suddenly, an old woman pushed the door open and happened to see this scene. She couldn't help but be shocked, "Ke'er, you... what are you going to do?"
The man was startled and turned around and said, "Mom, you...why are you back?"
It turns out that this man is Li Ke, and the old woman is her mother Pan.
As for why he was like this, it was because after hearing the news about Ling Yun's accident, he thought about it over and over again, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. He dug out the dusty sword box and headed to Shangsi County.
Pan stepped forward and grabbed his hand, nervously saying, "Ke'er, why are you holding the sword box, and what are you going to do?"
Li Ke calmed down and said with firm eyes, "Mom, my child needs to go out for a while."
When Mrs. Pan saw her son's firm gaze, she knew that he had made up his mind. For the first time, he did not refuse, but said calmly, "If you want to go, you must tell your mother what you are going to do, and make her feel at ease."
Li Ke shuddered and opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
After a long pause, he looked at Tujia Fort in the distance and said, "Mom, something happened to Mr. Zhizhou. I'm going to seek justice for Mr. Zhizhou."
Pan's eyes were moist, "Okay! Well done to me, Ke'er. Mom supports you. Mom is waiting for you to come back at home."
