Pei Zhiheng originally planned to get her a veil, and wanted her to wipe it off.

Now it's all a little tense.

His face changed a few times, so he didn't let his expression lose control.

Ruan Jiao's nosebleed couldn't be stopped at all.

Even if you cover it, it will flow down your fingers.

There was a lot of scratches on the clothes and the quilt, and it looked like a murder scene.

Pei Zhiheng went to the kitchen to get cold water and rubbed it on her forehead.

However, the effect is not very obvious.

Wang Langzhong was called over anxiously, thinking that Ruan Jiao had some kind of emergency.

After taking his pulse, he was silent for a while, "It's just hot inside, did you eat too much tonic recently?"

Ruan Jiao suddenly remembered those three days on the mountain, and nodded honestly, "I ate more than half of the venison in the past three days."

Wang Langzhong nodded, "That's no wonder, eat more light food these two days, and I'll bring you some medicinal herbs that can clear away heat and fire and boil water to drink."

After sending Wang Langzhong away, Pei's mother's eyes were a little red.

She didn't say anything, but Ruan Jiao's kindness was remembered in her heart.

During this period of time, Ruan Jiao needed a light diet to get rid of the fire, so Mother Pei took Pei Zhiheng to eat with her and it became easier.

Although Ruan Jiao's eyes were a little green because she drank porridge and ate green vegetables every day, she couldn't bear to see the two of them suffer so much, so she didn't say anything, and planned to go to the kitchen to make a plate of meat and add vegetables to them.

But... she's not very good at this stove.

When the fire is burning, either too much firewood is added and it is a bit smoky, or there is too little firewood and it is about to go out.

Especially since she still has to worry about frying sugar on top, she is simply too busy.

Unexpectedly, Pei Zhiheng walked into the kitchen on his own initiative, sat beside her naturally, and stretched out his hand to help her add firewood and watch the fire.

Ruan Jiao froze for a moment, then looked down at him.

Pei Zhiheng raised his eyes to meet hers, "What?"

Under the light of the fire, his handsome facial features softened, and the orange fire light danced in his deep pupils, giving her the illusion that his eyes were gentle and affectionate.

Ruan Jiao couldn't help but raised her hand and patted her forehead.

I just wonder if I get along too much with him recently and have been captured by Shengshi Meiyan, otherwise why do I always have illusions when I see him recently?

Seeing Ruan Jiao hastily looked away, Pei Zhiheng curled his lips. The slender fingers that were supposed to hold a pen and a book, even if they were holding a dirty firewood, seemed to be some kind of rare treasure.

Probably because her mind was a little confused, when the sugar color was boiled, Ruan Jiao put the prepared ribs in, the heat instantly rose, and oily flowers splashed out and landed on the back of her hand.

Ruan Jiao gasped lightly, fortunately the splash of oil was not big, although it hurt a little, but it was fine.

However, Pei Zhiheng suddenly stood up, clasped her wrist, with a dignified expression, "Where is it hot?"

Ruan Jiao was taken aback by his sudden action, "It's okay, just one point."

Pei Zhiheng directly took the spatula in her hand, and said to her in a domineering and forceful tone for the first time: "Go and wash in cold water, and give me the spatula!"

Ruan Jiao went to wash her hands in the basin next to her, she couldn't help but sneak a glance at him.

In front of the dim stove, Pei Zhiheng stood upright with a particularly serious expression.

As if not cooking, but doing something very important, the whole body is tense. After the pork ribs in the pot are colored with sugar, add the onion, ginger and garlic seasoning at a time, briefly stir-fry until the aroma is released, and then pour in water.

After doing all this, Ruan Jiao saw that he had obviously relaxed, and couldn't help but let out a chuckle.

Pei Zhiheng turned his face to see her smiling there, his brows and eyes softened a little, and his eyes fell on the back of her hand, "Does it still hurt? Show me."

He came over naturally, stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and checked it carefully.

When gazing down, Ruan Jiao's eyes fell on his face, and her heart beat faster.

Noticing an obvious red mark on the back of her fair hand, Pei Zhiheng pursed his lips, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, "Jiaoniang, I plan to end this year."

Ruan Jiao froze for a moment, "What?"

He suddenly raised his head and looked directly into Ruan Jiao's eyes, "My health has improved a lot recently, and there is still more than half a year before Qiu Wei, I have enough confidence to take care of it, I don't want to wait any longer, I want to get fame, let me Both you and your mother are living a good life, there are slaves and servants and others to serve you, you don't have to suffer these hardships, it will be soon, so...you don't want to divorce me, okay?"

Being stared at by such hot and straightforward eyes, Ruan Jiao's heart beats abnormally for a moment.

It was as if there was some strange force in the dark that made her agree.

However, in the next second, a certain picture flashed in her mind.

Ruan Jiao's impulse dissipated instantly, she turned her face away.

——"Help, I really can't forget it! I can't look at him directly, what should I do?"

Pei Zhiheng was stunned for a moment, and when he realized what she was saying, the roots of his ears were instantly red to the point of bleeding.

The ambiguous atmosphere disappeared in an instant, and both of them fell into embarrassment.

At this time, Mother Pei came in from the outside, "What are you two doing? Why don't you wait for me to wake up and cook?"

Ruan Jiao withdrew her hand, her mind was a little confused, she was very grateful to Mother Pei for coming, she quickly walked over and hugged Mother Pei's arm, "Oh, my mother is busy these days, I think you have worked hard, so I want to make some meat for my mother and husband to supplement."

When Pei's mother heard this, she felt angry, "You! Didn't the doctor tell you to eat lightly recently? What else should we supplement? Can't we eat together in two days?"

Ruan Jiao shook her head, "There is no shortage of meat at home now, why did you ask you to accompany me! You eat, I can still smell it, pretend I ate it too~"

Mother Pei reached out her hand helplessly and tapped her eyebrows, "You are the only one who is narrow."

...

Lin Xiao and the others traveled day and night, and finally rushed back to the capital city years ago. He asked his subordinates to go home first, and went to the eldest son's study in the front yard by himself.

Knock on the door lightly, and after a while, a handsome young man came out, "Master let you in."

Lin Xiao nodded towards the servant Yuanbao before pushing the door open.

The fifteen-year-old boy was sitting behind the table, holding a book in his hand. When he lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes, he looked like the boy under Guanyin's seat.

But as a confidant, Lin Xiao didn't dare to look at him. He quickly lowered his head and knelt on the ground respectfully, "Master, when I arrived at Xinglin Village as ordered, I didn't see the girl surnamed Ruan. She and her The husband went up the mountain together, encountered an avalanche, and was buried under the snow. The subordinates searched the mountain for three days, but failed to find any trace..."

He clearly explained everything that happened in Xinglin Village, and then closed his mouth and waited for orders.

No one spoke in the study room for a long time. After a long time, the dumb voice with a bit of juvenile voice change sounded slowly above his head, "So, you came back before you were sure whether the person was dead?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao's lips tightened immediately, and he lowered his head even more, "This subordinate is incompetent."

"You are indeed incompetent!" A cup of hot tea was thrown directly on his head, and Feng Yuzhang's voice was filled with obvious anger, "How can I explain to you? What I want is that you see her die with your own eyes."

Lin Xiao swallowed, "Master, that mountain is really too big, it snows all day long, and the snow is several feet deep. She is just an ordinary village girl, and her husband is also a scholar with no strength to restrain a chicken. In the event of an avalanche, even if you survive for a while, you will definitely not survive if you are buried for three days.

The subordinates and others almost dug the place where their accident occurred three feet, but they failed to find their traces. If they were not swallowed by wild animals, their bones might not be found until the snow melts in the spring next year. "

Feng Yuzhang narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes fell on Lin Xiao's head for a long time, as if to confirm the truth of what he said.

After a while, he said lightly, "Go out and get twenty whips."

Originally on the way back, Lin Xiao was worried that if he failed to see Ruan Jiao with his own eyes, and executed her, he would anger his master, but now seeing that he was only punished with twenty lashes, he was relieved, knowing that today's incident was considered a serious crime. Passed, "Thank you, master, for your kindness."

After Lin Xiao went out, Feng Yuzhang stared at the book in his hand for a long time without turning the pages.

The door of the study was knocked again, and the servant Yuan Bao walked in, "Master, madam, she has a headache again."

Feng Yuzhang's face changed suddenly, he closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, put down the book, "I'm going to see my mother."

Lin Nanny, the steward of the main courtyard, sighed when she saw Feng Yuzhang, "Did the eldest son come to see his wife?"

Feng Yuzhang nodded, with a hint of worry on his well-behaved face, "I heard that my mother had another headache, so I'm a little worried."

Nanny Lin pushed the door open for him, "Young Master has a heart. Seeing you are so filial, Madam will definitely be a little happier."

Yong'an Bo's current wife is his step-wife, who is twenty years younger than him, and has a pretty face, which is quite adored by him.

It's a pity that she has been sick since she went to visit relatives at her grandfather's house sixteen years ago, and her health has not recovered, especially after giving birth to her eldest son Feng Yuzhang, she was so sick that she locked herself in the yard without seeing visitors. It's just that the eldest son, even Yong'anbo, is often rejected by her.

After Feng Yuzhang went in, when Lin, who was leaning on the couch, saw him, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

Nanny Lin withdrew, closed the door, and let the mother and son talk.

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Feng Yuzhang's eyes very quickly, and when he looked up again, his eyes were changed to a look of worry, "My son heard that his mother had a headache again, did he take medicine?"

"I'm fine, it's just an old problem." Lin shook her head, grabbed Feng Yuzhang's wrist, paused for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "Brother Zhang, you...you found it News about her?"

Feng Yuzhang shook his head lightly, "No, looking for someone now is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Mother can't be too anxious, but as long as they are still alive, they will be found sooner or later."

The light in Lin's eyes faded in an instant, and he lost the enthusiasm for Feng Yuzhang just now.

"You don't have to worry about me. If you still have something to do, go and do it. I'm tired too. I'm going to rest."

Hearing this, Feng Yuzhang exerted force with his hand hanging aside, but the expression on his face did not change at all.

He stood up and cupped his hands towards Mrs. Lin, "Okay, my son won't disturb my mother's rest anymore."

Seeing Lin laying down with his back to him, without saying anything, blood gradually spread in his eyes, and his face was full of gloom.

What sister? The slut born of her intercourse with a countryman is also worthy of being his sister?

All these years, she allowed the concubines in her father's backyard to grow bigger, raised the appetite of those bastards, and ignored him, and now she still wants him to help find that bitch?

She never thought about the consequences of her having an affair with someone else if his father knew about it?

Feng Yuzhang curled his lips coldly.

He is the eldest son of Uncle Yong'an, who will inherit the title in the future.

For so many years, she has never fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother, and she will not be able to become an obstacle to his succession to the title in the future.

Originally, he didn't want her to die.

But who told him to prepare the way for her, and she refused to go?

It's a pity that after Qiu Yang was sent back, he was completely stupid. He didn't know what happened in the beginning, and it was a waste of all his efforts to lure him there.

He has always liked to be safe, although Lin Xiao said that she would definitely not survive on the mountain.

But he still wants to get the exact news.

It seems that after the next year, have to send someone to confirm it again.

...

Ruan Jiao didn't know that she was being targeted. The Chinese New Year was approaching, and Ruan Jiao had nothing to do. She thought that the half pork she had left at home would not be enough for three people to eat, so she encouraged Pei's mother to set up a stall in the county to sell it. Fried meatballs, to make money for Pei Zhiheng.

When Pei's mother learned that her son was going to participate in Qiu Wei next year, she also panicked after thinking about the family's savings.

So she immediately agreed to Ruan Jiao's proposal, and even asked Pei Zhiheng to set up a stall next to them to sell Spring Festival couplets.

Pei Zhiheng had no choice but to follow suit, but although his calligraphy was beautiful and he sold it cheaply, there were too many scholars selling calligraphy on the street, and the money he sold was not as good as Ruan Jiao and Pei's mother selling meatballs Fraction.

They sold the meatballs on the street for three days in a row, because the meat was harvested from the mountains and had no capital, so they made a full two taels of silver this trip.

As for Pei Zhiheng, he sold a total of 120 coins.

Looking at the comparison between the two sides, Pei Zhiheng fell into silence.

He seems like a piece of shit.

On the morning of the 23rd, Mother Pei took the prepared offerings and took Ruan Jiao and Pei Zhiheng to worship her deceased husband.

Because there are no people on the battlefield, there are no bones, so there is only a clothes tomb at home.

Mother Pei was very silent in front of the tomb, and she didn't know if it was because of her mood that the sky, which had been sinking for a long time, suddenly began to snow heavily.

Although the three of them wore a lot of clothes when they came out, they were still blown through by the cold wind all the way home.

Even after drinking ginger water, Mother Pei still fell down.

The high fever persisted, and the person kept talking in his sleep in a daze.

Ruan Jiao suddenly remembered that when the dean's mother passed away in her previous life, she had such a high fever one day, and then she went away.

The scene in front of him seemed to overlap with the previous life.

She panicked.

Standing beside Pei's mother, she didn't take off her clothes, fed medicine and wiped her body.

Pei's mother was ill for two days, and she only served for two days. Seeing her haggard, Pei Zhiheng felt very distressed.

Seeing that she was going to keep vigil at night, Pei Zhiheng suddenly became angry, pressed her shoulders, and forcibly carried her out of Pei's mother's room.

Back in their room, Pei Zhiheng put her on the bed with a stern expression, "I still have me in this family, not just you, Jiao Niang, she is also my mother."

Ruan Jiao suddenly stopped.

Pei Zhiheng sighed, pressed her in his arms, and patted her on the back lightly like comforting a child, "Don't worry, it's okay, mother is just too tired during this time, and after experiencing Great sadness and great joy, this happened all of a sudden, didn't Wang Langzhong also say it, just let it out."

Pei Zhiheng knew that she was afraid of the cold, so he stuffed two Mrs. Tang into the quilt, and after coaxing her, he went to watch over Pei's mother.

Ruan Jiao was lying on the bed, looking at the bed curtain, her eyes were a little divergent, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Suddenly, a mechanical sound like a freeze sounded in my ear.

[Drip—Energy accumulation is complete...The data operation detection is normal...The intelligent voice system is loaded...The system is starting...]

Ruan Jiao was taken aback for a moment, thinking that she was hallucinating in a trance.

She sat up suddenly, looked around, and there was nothing unusual in the room.

Only there was an extra voice in her ear.

[Jiaojiao! Jiaojiao! Woohoo, I finally woke up! I didn't expect that you and the Zombie King had so much energy when they blew up. In order to protect you, I almost used up all my energy and almost exploded together. Fortunately, I successfully traveled through time and space at the most critical moment. It's a pity that my energy is too little I just had time to bring you into this world, and went dormant without even releasing the mission. 】

[Zombie King's dogecoin is really disgusting! If it wasn't for him, Jiaojiao, you wouldn't have to suffer such a painful self-explosion. 】

【You don't know how much I worried about you before going to sleep, Jiaojiao, woohoo, are you okay? Are you mentally healthy? I remember that I seemed to blur the memory of your death at the end, you don't remember it, do you? 】

[I didn't even have time to give you the script of this world, are you still used to it? You don't have a baby, so you haven't shown any signs, have you? 】

The system chattered a lot with Barabara, but Ruan Jiao didn't hear her answer.

It was a little uncomfortable with the whole body, and asked suspiciously: [Jiaojiao, why don't you speak? Are you too touched by what your baby did for you? 】

Although Ruan Jiao didn't really want to attack it, but this noisy system that popped up all of a sudden made her feel a little dazed.

Hearing its question, Ruan Jiao was silent for a moment, and then asked under the expectant eyes of the system, "What are you?"
