A few hours later, the sticky rain finally subsided, and a refreshing wind blew from the earth. The drizzle dropped like beads in the mountains and jungles, and the beads splashed, blowing towards the world and scattered on the way.
The stove was turned on in the kitchen of the small courtyard, and the strong aroma of barbecue wafted out. Xie Zhong sat outside the north courtyard, smelling the fragrance, greedy and shaking his head.
The young woman passed by holding a wooden basin full of blood. Seeing him sitting like this, she stopped and whispered: "Sir, you are still sick. You should go back home and have a good rest."
Xie Zhong raised his eyes to look at her and suddenly smiled: "You are the only one who still cares about me."
The young woman bowed her head respectfully.
Xie Zhong pointed to his face and said to her: "Are these places still hurting?"
The young woman said: "Sir, I'm almost healed and the pain is gone."
"Hey, that guy Chang Yi is good at everything, but he has a bad temper. How come he doesn't know how to show mercy to others?"
"Sir, Changyi is..."
"Oh, it's Qian Fengrong. His nickname is Changyi, and I gave it to him."
The young woman's face turned pale uncontrollably.
Xie Zhong smiled: "Don't worry, don't you still have me? I will be here from now on, and I will protect you."
"...Thank you sir."
"What's there to thank you for? Thank you for taking care of me these days, otherwise I would have died of illness! By the way, what's your name? Who's your mother?"
"The slave family has no name. Because her surname is Liu and she is the seventh in rank, she is called Liu Qiniang."
Xie Zhong touched the beard on his chin, thought for a while, and said, "Otherwise, if you give my last name Xie and call me Xie Qiniang, I will recognize you as my goddaughter!"
The young woman was startled and raised her beautiful eyes to look at Xie Zhong: "Sir, you mean..."
"Be my goddaughter, and we will be a family," Xie Zhong said with a smile, "With this identity, when I return to Chang Yi in a few days, do you think he will still dare to touch you?"
The young woman was in disbelief and her lips trembled. Suddenly, she put the wooden basin in her hand on the ground and knelt down to kowtow: "Thank you sir, thank you sir!"
"No, no, no, no, no, no," Xie Zhong helped her up, "Don't call me husband anymore. It's time to call me godfather instead!"
The young woman raised her eyes and looked at him, opened her mouth, but couldn't shout for a while.
Xie Zhong said: "However, my godfather has a favor that I need you to do for me now. Do you think you are willing to help me?"
The young woman paused and said, "Godfather...what do you want the slave family to help with?"
Xie Zhong smiled slightly and said: "Kill people."
Before it got dark, Zhuo Xilie sent someone to deliver a piece of meat.
There was a rabbit leg and half a roast chicken on the plate. As soon as they were placed on the table, the aroma of the meat immediately filled the whole room.
Xie Zhong was packing his clothes, and the person who came to deliver the meat had a sloppy attitude, spoke perfunctorily, and left after scribbling a few words.
As soon as he left, the gentleness and kindness on Xie Zhong's face disappeared without a trace. He narrowed his eyes, his eyes became cold and angry, and then looked at the rabbit legs and roast chicken on the table.
Just at this time, Xie Qiniang came in with soup and medicine from outside. Xie Zhong said: "Qiniang, you are here just in time. I am not feeling well. Please take away the rabbit legs and roast chicken on the table."
Xie Qiniang looked at it and was stunned: "Sir, do you really want to give such a large piece of meat to the slave family? Then you..."
"Hey~!" Xie Zhong frowned and interrupted her, "Why do you call me me?"
Xie Qiniang pursed her lips and whispered: "Godfather."
"That's right," Xie Zhong said with satisfaction, "Since I am your godfather, you can eat this meat. It's so greasy that I can't eat it either."
Xie Qiniang responded, put down the medicine respectfully, and said, "Daddy, drink the medicine first."
Xie Zhongdao: "What I told you before..."
Xie Qiniang clasped her hands and said, "The slave family has already complied with the request. They drank all the wine."
"Okay," Xie Zhong said, "then you can go down with the meat."
"yes."
Xie Qiniang looked at the meat on the table, swallowed her saliva, felt a little timid, but still took it away.
When she went out, she deliberately put the meat on the ground, turned around and closed the door before continuing to pick up the plate and leave.
Xie Zhong looked at the closed door and said coldly: "Rabbit meat, chicken, how can human meat smell so good?"
He doesn't eat human flesh, but he likes to watch people die.
Early the next morning, Xie Zhong was woken up by himself coughing.
Dragging her weak body to open the door, Xie Qiniang was already busy in the yard.
Seeing Xie Zhong coming out, Xie Qiniang came over immediately: "Godfather!"
Xie Zhong put his hands behind his back and said, "How many of them are awake?"
"Not yet, I just got up and went to the hut, then went back to sleep."
Xie Zhong nodded: "It seems that I drank too much yesterday."
Xie Qiniang's voice became softer: "Godfather, the effect of that medicine...isn't it strong?"
"I am in such a miserable state, how can I bring any strong poison? Take your time, we are not in a hurry."
"Um... By the way, godfather, the hot water is ready. Can I bring it to you?"
Xie Zhong laughed: "Okay, go get it."
"Um!"
Seeing Xie Qiniang leave quickly, Xie Zhong himself felt funny. Things like status are useful.
He didn't pay anything, just promised to be a godfather and goddaughter, and the woman served her even more diligently than before, and she was still willing to do so.
Xie Qiniang quickly brought warm water over. After Xie Zhong finished washing, he took the dry handkerchief she handed him to wipe his hands and said, "I want to go for a walk among the households in the nearby villages. Would you like to come with me?"
Xie Qiniang wondered: "I'm afraid the slave family won't be able to go. If they wake up, the slave family will have to go and take care of them."
"That's right. Thank you for your hard work. One day, your godfather will make sure you live well and wear gold and silver!"
Xie Qiniang's eyes brightened, she lowered her head and said, "Thank you very much, godfather. Qiniang will definitely do a good job for godfather!"
Xie Zhong patted her thin shoulder kindly and left with his hands behind his back.
The weather is very good today, the clouds are clear, the sky is light blue, everything is bathed in the warm sunshine, the wind blows through the treetops, and the birds sit and sway comfortably on the branches.
Xie Zhong took two sticks of incense and went to the nearest villages.
He wandered around with his hands behind his back, walking slowly and leisurely, and greeted everyone he met with a smile. The villagers who met him had seen him often in the past few days, and now they regarded him as someone from this area.
Xie Zhong bought some common medicine and two meat buns, and then he would go wherever there was excitement.
Seeing the people in front forming a circle, Xie Zhong also squeezed in.
A woman was beating a little girl, calling her wild and running around.
The girl was beaten until she cried loudly. The woman's hands became harder and harder, grabbing the little girl's hair and hitting her everywhere.
Xie Zhong looked around and found an old man whose clothes were of better quality than the others.
He quietly moved next to the old man, shook his head, and sighed one after another.
The old man was attracted by him and asked curiously: "You man, why do you keep sighing?"
Xie Zhong sighed again: "If you beat someone like this, you won't be beaten to death. This method won't work. I have a better method."
"Method? What method?"
Xie Zhong smiled and whispered in the old man's ear. The old man raised his eyebrows: "Bind her feet?"
"It's them," Xie Zhong said with a smile, "This method has been around since ancient times, but it must not be thrown away. As a woman, you have to stay at home and watch the door and serve us men!"
After saying that, he picked up the things in his hands and left with his hands behind his back, looking happy.
