Chapter 87 Foot Injury

After Jing Lan carried Liu Xi back to the small courtyard, she saw Mr. Hai coming, so she went to find Uncle Jing Jiu first.

The door of Sansheng Pavilion broken by Liuxi has been repaired. Jing Lan sat on the seat, listening to Uncle Jing Jiu's talk, and looked at the repaired door from time to time.

The spies outside Haicheng brought good news today.

One is that the Ye clan and other races joined forces to attack the three states under the jurisdiction of Wei Jianbai, and the other is that the imperial soldiers and horses were defeated in the territory under Wei Jianbai's jurisdiction. .

"Puff! Puff!"

Another white pigeon flew over from outside the pavilion. Uncle Jing Jiu caught the white pigeon and took out the letter from the white pigeon's letter bag.

Jing Lan was stunned, "Where does the joy come from?"

Uncle Jing Jiu replied truthfully, "The spies saw a Wei family army retreating from Longling and heading northwest." After a short pause, Uncle Jing Jiu said in a deep voice, "It must be Liu Su who the young master met in Longling this time. That army."

"Did Liu Su go back too?" Jing Lan asked again.

Uncle Jing Jiu shook his head, "It's not written in the letter, but I can let the spies keep watching. If you see Liu Su going back, report it immediately."

"Thank you Ninth Uncle." Jing Lan nodded, now it was a false alarm, the Ye clan and the foreign race sent troops at this time, it was regarded as a solution to the danger of Haicheng.

One cannot be passively beaten all the time, Jing Lan thought, she should take advantage of this respite to plan something, if the Wei family soldiers dare to come again next time, she will not be so passive.

"There are also the ashes of my sister-in-law's mother and my little uncle. Choose an auspicious day to bury the ashes, and then set up a separate small ancestral hall next to the ancestral hall, and set up a spiritual tablet for them." Jing Lan thought of another important thing.

Uncle Jing Jiu nodded, "Leave all these things to Uncle Jiu, don't worry, young master, I will definitely do it properly."

"En." Jing Lan nodded.

"Little Five! Come out! I have something to ask you!"

Just at this moment, Jing Tan's voice sounded outside the Three Provinces Pavilion.

Jing Lan gave Uncle Jing Jiu a wink, "Uncle Jiu, go get busy, Second Brother must have something important to do with me."

"Yes, young master." Uncle Jing Jiu bowed his head and stepped back.

Jing Lan walked out of the Sansheng Pavilion, and just smiled at Jing Tan, "Second brother, why..."

"Xiao Wu, you are already the Patriarch of the Donghai Clan, you are no longer a child!" Jing Tan seemed to be angry, "You want to take risks, can you bring a few more guards?"

Jing Yuan noticed that Jing Tan's tone was not kind, so he hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Wu, the second brother is only angry because he is worried about you."

Jing Lan smiled, "Third Brother, it's okay, I know Second Brother is not really angry with me."

"You can still laugh?!" Jing Tan asked sharply.

The smile on Jing Lan's face froze, "What's wrong?"

Jing Tan took a deep breath, "The last time Xiaosi took you to Youyou Island to fool around, it wasn't because sister-in-law tried her best to save you, you and Xiaosi were going to stay on Youyou Island! This time you..."

"Second brother!" Jing Lan knew what he was angry about, she stopped Jing Tan in a solemn voice, "I didn't mess around this time, I went to Longling with my sister-in-law for business, not for sightseeing!"

"She married into the Jing family, she didn't come to protect you." Jing Tan said hoarsely, and looked at Jing Lan disappointedly, "If the elder brother is still here, do you think he loves his sister-in-law?"

Jing Lan clenched her fists, "I'll say it again, I'm not fooling around in Longling this time!"

"Really?" Jing Tan was extremely disappointed.

Jing Yuan hurriedly took the opportunity to smooth things over, "They're all brothers of my own family, so speak up if you have something to say, but don't fight!"

"Hit him?" Jing Tan smiled wryly, and told Jing Lan word by word, "If you continue to behave like a child, you will kill your sister-in-law and everyone who cares about you!"

Jing Yuan turned Jing Tan around, "Second brother, this is too serious!"

Jing Tan glared at the third brother, "As an elder brother, can't I say a few words to Xiao Wu?" Suddenly, he sensed that Jing Lan was about to leave, so he stepped forward to stop Jing Lan, "Did you listen to what I said?"

"I'll go see my sister-in-law." Jing Lan didn't want to argue with him.

Jing Tan took a step forward, his eyes were fiercer than ever before, "Jing Lan, you said that your sister-in-law killed everyone in our Haicheng in her previous life. In my opinion, those things are just ridiculous. It's just a nightmare of yours. There should be a limit to nonsense, do you have to kill your sister-in-law to stop your nonsense and speculation?"

"Second brother means that I deliberately took my sister-in-law to Longling, hurt her on purpose, and wanted to kill her in Longling?" Jing Lan was also angry this time, raising her eyebrows and said sharply, "If I survived With such a heart, when my sister-in-law is facing the zombie general to the death, I should give her a slap, she will definitely not come back alive."

Jing Tan was speechless.

Jing Yuan was terrified when he heard this, "Zombies appeared in Longling?!"

Jing Lan said seriously: "Longling's feng shui has been broken, it is already a dangerous place, that place is too evil, if it is not necessary in the future, don't take risks there."

Jing Yuan widened his eyes and nodded.

Jing Lan took a deep look at the second brother, and didn't say anything to the second brother. She raised her hand and patted Jing Yuan's shoulder, "Third brother, I'll leave this to you first."

"En." Jing Yuan nodded.

Jing Lan sighed softly, the matter of Haicheng was an explanation to Uncle Jing Jiu, she really should go and see Liuxi.

After watching Jing Lan walk away, Jing Tan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say to his third brother, to break the slightly embarrassing tranquility at this moment.

"Second brother, he is our little five, you and I grew up watching him, he won't do that kind of sinister thing." Jing Yuan patted Jing Tan on the shoulder and reminded: "Second brother, I also respect my sister-in-law, and I am also worried about her when she comes back from injury, but..." He paused, looked left and right, and finally said what was in his heart, "You seem to care too much about your sister-in-law."

Jing Tan trembled, and hurriedly said: "Nonsense!"

"I hope it's me talking nonsense." Jing Yuan thoughtfully, "If my mother finds out, she'll beat you up at worst, but what about my sister-in-law? She's been married for only a few months, and she has fallen into disrepair." Charming Second Uncle, who has a bad reputation for not obeying women's morals, how do you let her live in Haicheng in the future?"

Jing Tan had no words to refute.

Jing Yuan smiled and said: "Second brother, you are not young anymore, you should find a second sister-in-law earlier."

Jing Tan's eyes dimmed slightly, no one knew what he was thinking at this time?

That's all for Jing Yuan's words, the second brother is not a brash young man, he knows what to do and what not to do.

"Let's go, continue to teach me how to ward off evil spirits!"

"Ah."

Jing Tan followed Jing Yuan to the place where evil spirits were warded off, feeling a strong sense of unwillingness lingering in his heart.

The eldest brother married her, not to make her a widow in Haicheng for the rest of her life.

If one day, Liu Xi is no longer the eldest brother's wife, and he is no longer the second son of the Jing family, it would not be a sin for him to adore her and want to marry her, right?

Jing Lan came to Liuxi's small courtyard, and as soon as she reached the door, she heard Mr. Neihai's sigh.

She stopped at the door and signaled the maid waiting at the door to keep quiet.

"What's the matter?" Aunt Hong asked hurriedly seeing Mr. Hai's complexion.

Mr. Hai frowned, and then looked at Liu Xi's bruised feet, and when he looked at Liu Xi's face, he saw the fine sweat on her forehead, which showed that this girl had been enduring the pain of broken bones in her feet.

"Young Madam, if you feel pain, it's okay to hum." Mr. Hai felt uncomfortable, and picked up the bamboo splint beside him, not knowing how to fix Liuxi's bone.

Liu Xi smiled lightly, "I've also endured the piercing pain, and I can also endure this little pain."

Aunt Hong stroked the back of Liu Xi's head distressedly, "Silly boy, you are just a girl, hum when you feel pain, don't bear it."

"The pain of broken bones..." Mr. Hai didn't know how the girl could hold back the pain. He put down the bamboo splint, and found Mabosan from the medicine box, "Let's use Mabosan first." .”

Liu Xi nodded, "Don't let Ah Lan know that I was seriously injured, or she will feel even more guilty."

Standing outside the door, Jing Lan shuddered suddenly. She never expected that Liu Xi was enduring the pain all this time. She didn't grunt the pain, and even joked with her. It turned out that she was just afraid of her guilt.

A sour feeling lingered in her heart, and Jing Lan only felt a throbbing pain in her heart.

"Xi'er, why are you so stupid?" Aunt Hong shook her head and sighed.

Liu Xi squeezed the little rabbit in her hand, and said with a smile, "Don't blame her, it's also because I underestimated the danger of Longling. If it wasn't for Ah Lan, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back alive."

Aunt Hong gritted her teeth and said: "If he plays with you again in the future, you come to Aunt Hong, and Aunt Hong will take care of him for you!"

"Okay..." After Liu Xi finished speaking, he looked seriously at Mr. Hai who had prepared the soup, "Sir, tell me the truth, my feet can be cured, right?"

Mr. Hai did not answer immediately.

Liu Xi understood, "Will he become crippled?"

"Hai will do his best to heal the young lady." Mr. Hai could only say this to Liu Xi.

Liu Xi nodded in relief, "Mr. Laohai is here."

Aunt Hong couldn't believe what she heard, "What do you mean?"

Mr. Hai offered the Mabotang to Liuxi with both hands, and explained: "Young Madam was hit by that hammer, the inner force spread to the arch of the foot, and cracks appeared in all the bones, and some small bones could not bear the inner force shock and they were already broken... "

"Aunt Hong, I will get better." Liu Xi smiled at Aunt Hong, raised her head and drank the soup.

Tiredness came slowly, Liu Xi pillowed in Aunt Hong's arms, and gradually fell asleep.

With tears in her eyes, Aunt Hong carefully laid Liuxi flat, and said to Mr. Hai: "Sir, Xi'er is a poor child, everything depends on you!"

Mr. Hai nodded heavily.

"Mr. Hai!" Jing Lan walked in suddenly, her eyes were reddish, she stared closely at Mr. Hai and said, "She can't be limping anymore. If there is any magic medicine in this world, tell me, and I will find it!"

When Aunt Hong heard what Jing Lan said, she also said anxiously: "Sir, tell me, I can go find it too!"

Mr. Hai thought for a while, "In the north, there is a mountain called Guimenguan at the junction of Dongfuzhou and Nanyuezhou..." He stopped abruptly in the middle of his words, and shook his head violently, "No, that's just a mountain. According to legend, no one knows whether ghost doctors exist or not."

"I'll go!" Jing Lan nodded heavily.

Aunt Hong quickly grabbed her sleeve, "You stay at home obediently! You are the head of the house..."

"Aunt Hong, if I don't go this time, I will be in trouble for the rest of my life." Jing Lan held Aunt Hong's hand, "Sister-in-law was injured because of me. I will go to the ghost doctor and come back if I can't find me. I promise Be careful."

Looking at Jing Lan's childish face, Aunt Hong was still worried, "Aunt Hong will go with you."

"Sister-in-law still needs Aunt Hong to take care of you." Jing Lan chuckled confidently, "Aunt Hong, believe me, I am not a child anymore, I know that I am the head of the Jing family, and I know what responsibilities lie on my shoulders." The determination between his eyebrows is very similar to that of Jing Xiaohai back then.

"One month, come back if you can't find me." Jing Lan made another promise to Aunt Hong.

It's not that Aunt Hong doesn't believe in Jing Lan, she just doesn't trust Jing Lan. After all, Xiao Wu is the only blood of Su Rou and Jing Xiaohai. She blamed herself for failing to protect Jing Duo.

"I'll take a few guards, I promise, I won't fight recklessly, only a few of them will come back safely, okay?" Jing Lan said again.

When Aunt Hong heard this promise, she felt relieved, "As you said, only a few people will go, and only a few people will come back safely."

"En!" Jing Lan nodded heavily.

Mr. Hai hastily dug out a pack of medicinal powder from the medicine box and handed it to Jing Lan, "There is a lot of miasma at the gate of hell, the young master brought this poison that can prevent the miasma."

"Thank you, Mr. Hai." Jing Lan took the powder with both hands.

Her eyes fell on Liu Xi's face, but the words of instruction were addressed to Aunt Hong, "She is also an unruly person, Aunt Hong should take good care of her, lest she worry about me and come looking for me again."

Aunt Hong sighed deeply, "I know."

For Xi'er to be Xiao Wu's sister-in-law, she is doing her best.

"Xiao Wu." Aunt Hong called her again.

"Ah."

"Don't lose your childish temper with Xi'er in the future..."

"it is good."

Jing Lan answered simply, took a deep look at Liu Xi, and said in her heart, "Next time you try to be brave like this, I'm not going to lose my temper." Her gaze finally fell on the little rabbit tightly held between Liu Xi's fingers. Feeling that the light in her eyes has become much gentler, if she hadn't thought of Aunt Hong's presence, Jing Lan would have covered the back of her hand, held it lightly, and said softly, "Wait for me to come back."

Aunt Hong had never seen Jing Lan have such a deep and gentle gaze, she couldn't help being stunned, she always felt that Jing Lan's gaze on Liu Xi was different from before.

Probably she was thinking too much.

Xiaowu will only be seventeen in three months, and the relationship between men and women has not been resolved, and Liu Xi is Xiao Wu's sister-in-law. A few days ago, this little girl was always at odds with Liu Xi, so there must be no other wrong thoughts. yes.

It was inconvenient for Jing Lan to stay here for a long time, so after a few more instructions, she left in a hurry.

Aunt Hong suddenly realized a very bad thing for Liu Xi. Jing Duo was dead, and her eldest sister-in-law was in full bloom, but the younger uncles Jing Tan and Jing Yuan in Haicheng had grown up, and some suspects had to be avoided. up.

No wonder Jing Lan said that she must stay and take care of Liu Xi.

People in the world always like to spread malice on women. A clean girl like Liu Xi has lived in Haicheng for a long time, and she is afraid that she will get a bad reputation.

People say that a daughter is worried when she grows up, but Aunt Hong now feels that her son is also starting to worry about others when he grows up.
