As he told his story, things about Su Jin'er began to come back to light.
It was during the cold winter three years ago that Xiao Nanlin took his wife to visit relatives in Yu County. Yu County is ten miles northwest of Hezhou.
There were scattered snowflakes in the sky that day, and the couple were sitting in the carriage.
Passing by a county town, when I was about to enter the town, I suddenly heard a noise.
Someone shouted: "This beggar woman has gone crazy again and hurt people. This time I can't spare her, drive her away..."
Someone else shouted: "Damn, this woman's martial arts skills are actually very good. Please ask someone with high martial arts skills to deal with her!"
Hearing these shouts, Xiao Nanlin ordered people to stop the carriage.
Xiao Nanlin got out of the carriage and saw dozens of people surrounding an abandoned shabby house on the roadside. The people also held sticks, shovels and other equipment in their hands. They surrounded a female beggar with unkempt hair and ragged clothes.
The female beggar held a stick in her hand and waved it towards the crowd.
She looked very frightened and kept screaming at the crowd with a crying sound.
"Don't come here! Don't hurt me...you all go away, go away..."
Xiao Nanlin took people there.
Xiao Nanlin said to an older man: "Brother, what's going on?"
The elder said: "This 'Hua Zi' came here half a month ago. During the day, she walked around as if looking for something. At night, she went back to this shabby house to rest. People saw her as pitiful and usually gave her some food.
Half an hour ago, Uncle Liu came to bring her food, but she insisted that Uncle Liu wanted to harm her and beat him seriously. When Uncle Liu's sons learned that they were angry, they came to teach her a lesson, but they were all injured by her.
.I didn’t expect her to be so powerful..."
At this time, a man took advantage of the female beggar's shouting and distraction and rushed towards him from the right with a stick. Unexpectedly, the female beggar noticed that the stick was swung towards him. The stick's shadow flashed like a snake's shadow and hit the man.
The man screamed in pain and fell to the ground.
Everyone quickly pulled him out.
Xiao Nanlin was the deputy general manager of the South Academy at the time, and he was usually taught by Su Qinghou, so his martial arts was naturally not weak. He was especially accomplished in swordsmanship. Xiao Nanlin saw that the female beggar used swordsmanship with a stick, and the swordsmanship was very exquisite.
It's very comparable to other people. It's just that the skill is insufficient and it's not perfect.
This surprised Xiao Nanlin.
From this, he concluded that this female beggar was no ordinary person.
Xiao Nanlin devoted himself to Buddha and immediately felt sympathy for this beggar woman.
At this time, the crowd became even more angry. People waved their instruments and wanted to rush in and beat the female beggar. The female beggar was even more frightened. Her body began to tremble.
Tears kept flowing from his eyes.
Xiao Nanlin stopped everyone.
Xiao Nanlin said to everyone: "Everyone, she didn't mean to hurt anyone. She is insane. In this case, leave her to me. I will handle the matter properly. As for the medical expenses of those injured by her,
Let me do it. Please let this poor woman go."
These people were not evil. It was only the beggar woman who injured her that aroused public outrage. Since Xiao Nanlin took over the matter, they no longer made things difficult for the beggar woman. Xiao Nanlin gave the injured some money, and the people dispersed.
Went.
The people surrounding her dispersed, and the beggar woman's mood became slightly more stable.
But she was still wary and hostile towards Xiao Nanlin and the others.
She pointed a stick at Xiao Nanlin to prevent him from getting close. Xiao Nanlin noticed that there was confusion in her eyes, as if she was blocked by fog.
The woman suddenly shouted to Xiao Nanlin: "Tell me, who am I?! Where do I come from?! Where should I go..."
The woman asked Xiao Nanlin how Xiao Nanlin knew.
In order to dispel the woman's alertness, Xiao Nanlin asked his wife to come down and talk to the woman.
Mrs. Xiao felt pitiful when she saw the woman, so she patiently talked to the woman to stabilize her mood. She also took off her cloak and put it on her body. She also asked someone to bring her food.
So the beggar woman finally relaxed her guard and hostility.
She smiled at Xiao Nanlin and his wife.
She said: "You are good people."
Although this woman has unkempt hair and a disheveled face, her smiling eyes are as beautiful as crescent moons, making her feel friendly.
Xiao Nanlin was shocked when he saw the woman's smile.
At that time, he thought to himself, when this woman smiled, her eyes looked exactly like Su Jin'er, the pearl of South Campus.
Xiao Nanlin initially planned to order someone to take this woman away from here, and then give her some food and clothes, which was considered benevolent. Now that he saw this woman smiling like Su Jin'er, loving her house as much as she loved the house, he no longer had the heart to send this woman away and let her suffer.
.
So the couple took the woman with them.
On the way, Mrs. Xiao cleaned up the woman, and the couple were stunned when they saw her appearance.
When the couple left Nanyuan, Su Jiner was more than ten years old.
However, a few years ago, Xiao Nanlin also met Su Jin'er once. However, there was someone protecting Su Jin'er that time, and Xiao Nanlin did not come close. At that time, he was very excited.
Although the beggar woman now looks pale and haggard, it can still be seen that she looks exactly like Su Jin'er.
Xiao Nanlin quickly asked the woman about her origins, but she couldn't remember anything. If she asked too many questions, she would become uneasy and fearful, and would become anxious. She would tear her hair and try to recall the past.
Xiao Nanlin didn't dare to ask anymore.
The South Courtyard was destroyed and Su Qinghou also disappeared from the world. Xiao Nanlin also knew these things.
Xiao Nanlin suspected that this woman might be Su Jin'er.
But then he thought about it, even though the Marquis had retired, Su Jin'er was the wife of Wang Linyi of the Southern Territory, so how could she be left in the world with no one to care for her brain damage.
Although the woman has excellent swordsmanship and looks exactly like Su Jin'er, Xiao Nanlin still can't believe that she is really Su Jin'er before there is conclusive evidence.
That night, she stayed at an inn, and Mrs. Xiao slept with this woman.
As a result, Mrs. Xiao got up in the middle of the night and ran to her husband's room next door. She looked excited and said, "Brother Yong, she is Miss! She is Su Jin'er!"
Xiao Nanlin hurriedly asked the reason.
Mrs. Xiao said: "She was talking in her sleep just now. She said I want to go home...my home in South Courtyard...someone bullies me, daddy, please bring my brothers from South Courtyard to save me...This shows that she is really a young lady!"
"
It turns out that this woman couldn't remember anything when she woke up, but she gave some clues through her sleep talking.
Xiao Nanlin was even more excited after hearing this.
Now, I am sure that this woman is Su Jiner!
The couple came to Su Jin'er's room and looked at the familiar Su Jin'er. They were so excited that they never fell asleep again.
After confirming Su Jin'er's identity, Xiao Nanlin gave up visiting relatives, and the couple returned to Xiao's house with Su Jin'er.
The couple took great care of Su Jin'er, even more than they loved their own children.
But because Su Jin'er was stimulated by the accident and could not remember the past, she became extremely sensitive and fragile. The blank space in the past made her even more anxious. She wanted to recall the past, but she couldn't. The more she thought about it,
Looking for an answer, but finding no answer.
This vicious cycle plunged her into a huge pain that was difficult for others to understand.
Her mood is also extremely unstable.
Sometimes he will be as crazy as a lunatic.
Xiao Nanlin and his wife decided that this could not continue.
Su Jin'er will be tortured crazy.
I just lost my memory now. If I go crazy again, I will be in trouble.
So the couple went to find famous doctors to treat her.
