Cold and warm depend on each other

The moment the door opened, Su Zhe slid forward.Liu Tongxi was exhausted and could barely support her.Xue Wanxiang immediately opened her arms, and Su Zhe fell into her arms with a shivering whole body.

"Azhe." She called her, her voice full of tears and joy.

"Mrs. Su." Together with her, Liu Tongxi supported Su Zhe into the room, and temporarily placed her on the bed regardless of the dirt on her body.

Su Zhe closed his eyes tightly, as if unconscious.There were large areas of blood stains on the clothes, most of which had turned dark brown.

Xue Wanxiang held her palm with trembling fingertips, the palm was warm, she felt relieved, looked back at Deputy Chief Liu, only to see that he was also in a mess, so holding back tears, she first poured a cup of hot tea at the table.

Liu Tongxi took the tea and drank it all in one gulp. He took a breath and said, "I know Madam has something to ask, but it's a long story. It's getting late now, and I have my wife and children watching over me. I'll go home first. Come visit Su Shaoxia tomorrow."

He said and bowed his hands.Xue Wanxiang got up and sent him to the door, he thought for a while, then turned around and said: "Madam Su, Su Shaoxia's injury looks serious, but it should not be a hindrance. You don't want to send Su Shaoxia to the government office, there are some things... ...I'll come tomorrow and talk to you in detail."

Seeing his solemn expression, Xue Wanxiang thought of what happened in the government office during the day, so naturally she agreed.

After Deputy Chief Liu left, Xue Wanxiang took the money left over from making embroidery and buying brocade robes, without counting them, and gave all of it to the kind mother-in-law.The mother-in-law was still waiting to decline, Xue Wanxiang said: "If it weren't for my aunt's vigilance, I would die in the government office today, let alone other things. This money is not much, it is always my heart, auntie sees pity, please accept it .”

The old woman refused, but she collected the money and thanked her: "There is hot noodle soup in the food box, you should eat some at least. Su Shaoxia is inseparable from others. If there is anything else, you can tell the old woman again, boil some hot water and ask a doctor for help." Yes, running errands can always do it for you."

Tears welled up in Xue Wanxiang's eyes, she nodded and said, "Okay. Thank you, ma'am."

Back on the bed, Su Zhewu hadn't woken up yet, Xue Wanxiang looked at her blankly, with a smile on his face.After a while, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, poured half a basin of hot water into the copper basin on the wooden shelf, brought it to the bed, twisted a hot towel, and carefully wiped the mud and blood stains on her face .

A delicate and handsome face slowly revealed its original appearance in her hands.Su Zhe's eyebrows are very good, different from his thin willow-leaf eyebrows, Su Zhe's eyebrows are more handsome, when he smiles, his eyes are crooked, like a crescent moon, and occasionally he looks innocent with his head up, becoming a little girl. child.

The warm handkerchief slid over her eyebrows, her cheeks, her high nose bridge, and the soft lip line.Xue Wanxiang's fingertips paused, the handkerchief in her hand was slightly cold, she withdrew her hand, and sat sideways on the side of the bed, still looking at the person in front of her.

You are finally back.

She sighed slightly, feeling happy that the dust had settled.

Changed the hot water several times, wiped Su Zhe's body and long hair, and tried her best to change her into clean clothes. When she opened the close-fitting underwear, she thought she would be shy and blush, but she didn't.

She only saw new wounds on her shoulder and arm.The scars have scabbed over, but the hideousness is still there.The tears that had been endured for a long time suddenly fell unscrupulously and dripped on Su Zhe's round shoulders.With red eyes, she sniffed and wiped away the little bit of water stain, leaned over and supported her neck, helped her to turn sideways, and put on her moon-white coat.

As the candle was approaching, Xue Wanxiang put down the dark blue bed curtain and got into the quilt.Xu was too tired, Su Zhe never woke up.She lay down beside her, closed her eyes, opened them again after a while, turned her head and stared at her quietly.

Outside the window is the vast blue sky with bright stars.Xue Wanxiang stared at the moonlight for a long time, and the wind in the courtyard was rustling.She slowly closed her eyes, then forcefully opened them again, confirming that the people around her were still there, and her heart felt a little more at ease.The eyelids drooped, again and again, and I didn't know when I fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, Xue Wanxiang found that she was holding Su Zhe's arm, and her forehead was on her shoulder.Her face flushed slightly, and she turned to avoid it.Fortunately, last night, in order not to disturb her injury, she purposely slept on the other side.

A thin light shone on the bed curtain, Su Zhe's eyes were still closed, showing no sign of waking up.Xue Wanxiang leaned forward and tried to call her: "Azhe."

Su Zhe's eyelashes didn't even tremble.

Xue Wanxiang suddenly panicked.

But yesterday, Deputy Chief Liu clearly said that although the injury looked dangerous, it shouldn't be a problem.She had no choice but to sink her breath and wait patiently.

Although she was not born into a rich family, her father taught her to read and write, and her mother taught her needlework since she was a child. No matter which one, it requires a lot of patience.She asked herself that her temper had already been tempered, so that the flat gold embroidery method that considered the most kung fu could be done more delicately than ordinary embroiderers.

only now...

The warm winter sun shines through the shadows of tall trees, casting dappled light in front of the window.Xue Wanxiang sat on the edge of the bed, gently stroking Su Zhe's calloused fingers, feeling that the time was so long that it stagnated.

Days are like years.

At about the middle of the corner, Liu Tongxi finally knocked on the door, Xue Wanxiang's eyes lit up when he saw him, and hurriedly invited him into the room.

Liu Tongxi walked to the side of the bed, carefully watching Su Zhe's expression.

Her clothes had been changed, and the strong smell of blood had turned into a pleasant fragrance. Her originally handsome face was still pale, and she didn't know whether it was because she lost too much blood when she was injured, or her life was hanging by a thread these days.

"Has Su Shaoxia not woken up?"

"Hmm. What's wrong with her? Do you need a doctor? You... What happened to you in the west of the city?"

Seeing her anxious tone, Liu Tongxi raised her hand and said in a calm voice, "Madam Su, don't worry. Su Shaoxia is poisoned, but the poison has been cured temporarily."

"Poisoned?" Xue Wanxiang was stunned, and then asked again: "Was it when you were catching the thief?"

Liu Tongxi glanced at her, a little secretive. "Yes. Neither."

No matter how clever Xue Wanxiang is, he still can't discern the mystery from these few words.But she knew she couldn't blame Deputy Chief Liu. If he didn't say anything, it would be because of his difficulties. Su Zhe was rescued by his desperate efforts.Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, suppressed the pain in her heart, poured a cup of tea, and said slowly: "Master Liu, thank you for saving my husband back. I heard from the official that in order to save my husband, you have never Jumped off a cliff."

Liu Tongxi took the tea, but shook his head and said: "My life was saved by Su Shaoxia. That day in the dense forest, if it wasn't for Su Shaoxia's help, I would have died by the knife of the thief. The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, not to mention It's a life-saving grace. Mrs. Su..."

Xue Wanxiang also poured a cup of tea for herself, and Wen Yan looked at him with a small porcelain cup.

He thought for a long time before saying: "This speech is only between you and Su Shaoxia and the three of us."

Xue Wanxiang put down the teacup and nodded solemnly.

"In the jungle west of the city, we hunted down four bandits in total. Su Shaoxia beheaded two of them with his own strength. But because of this, his arms and shoulders were injured. We were all on the edge of the cliff at that time. Now, besides Brother Su, the one with the highest martial arts is Gao Leize, he is the guard of Master Zeng's family."

Hearing this, Xue Wanxiang suddenly interjected and asked: "But the one who always follows your young master?"

"Yes. He is the son's personal bodyguard."

Xue Wanxiang listened, and smiled coldly: "He must have done something to Ah Zhe."

"How do you know?" Liu Tongxi looked at her in surprise, she shook her head, signaling him to continue.Liu Tongxi took a sip of tea before continuing: "Su Shaoxia was the closest to the cliff. It was raining heavily at that time, and the mud in the dense forest was everywhere, so her feet were naturally slippery. Su Shaoxia killed the bandit leader, and the bandit also scratched her arm with a knife. Maybe her feet slipped. I heard Gao Leize yelling to be careful, and rushed over while yelling. I hurried to help, but I saw that he didn't seem to be pulling Su Shaoxia, but...but pushing her Bundle!"

Xue Wanxiang got up suddenly, her complexion changed in an instant, her heart was anxious and angry, she turned her head and saw Su Zhe lying on the bed in a daze, motionless, she was so uncomfortable that she wanted to make such a high base Ze Lingchi!

"The situation at that time really didn't allow me to think too much. I rushed forward and wanted to hold Su Shaoxia. I never thought that the road was wet and slippery, and I usually fell!" Liu Tongxi said, taking a big sip of tea, looking at Mrs. Su His face was full of fear and fear, he couldn't say any words of comfort, so he continued the preface: "Fortunately, there is a big tree growing horizontally on the cliff, Su Shaoxia is falling on the big tree, watch me fall, drag me Saved me, saved me again!"

Thinking of the thrills at that time, Liu Tongxi couldn't help but feel lingering fear, and he took a moment to finish his sentence.

He was a little dazed when he fell, but Su Zhe reacted quickly and grabbed him to prevent him from falling to his death.The big tree is always more than ten feet away from the top of the cliff. In normal times, with Su Zhe's lightness skill, it is not a bad idea to try to climb up, but unfortunately, her arms and shoulders were injured, and the continuous heavy rain made the mountain wall wet and steep. It's slippery, I can't hold my hand at all.The two had to lean against the big tree and rest for a while.Thanks to the continuous rain, they would not die of thirst on the edge of the cliff.

Liu Tongxi closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, and after an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyes and saw a strange expression on Su Zhe's face, which seemed to be mocking and desolate, so he hurriedly asked what happened.Su Zhe didn't hide it from him who lived life and death together, and sneered that someone poisoned her.

Poison?Before falling off the cliff, it was clearly fine!Liu Tongxi immediately thought of Gao Leize.

Su Zhe said: "I have the good medicine for the detoxification of the teacher with me. I have just taken it, but the poison is difficult to eradicate, and now I have lost all my internal strength. Brother Liu, you will definitely be able to go out after the rain stops. Please run for a while, Mr. General The promised money will be given to my wife. My wife..." She paused, turned her face to prevent Liu Tongxi from seeing the emotion in her eyes, and managed to stabilize her voice: "My wife's home is in Linhuai City, please help Brother Liu Hire a proper car and send her back."

When Liu Tongxi heard her speak like this, she felt as if she was asking for help.He felt uncomfortable, and wanted to say a few words of comfort, but there was nothing unclear about the current situation.

Su Zhe slightly lowered his eyes and lowered his voice, as if sighing: "My wife is kind-hearted. If she knows that I have been murdered, she will definitely be sad. Don't tell her that I was poisoned, as long as... ...As long as the carriage is arranged for her, she will return to her natal family."

Liu Tongxi persuaded: "Young Xia Su, you are very skillful, and this cliff is not an abyss. You will be able to get out after you have rested. You said Mrs. Su would be sad when she knew you were killed, but if you can't go back, Isn't she sad!"

After hearing this, Su Zhe didn't say anything.

The valleys and cliffs should be silent, but there are big drops of rain hitting the forests, mountains and rocks, echoing endless vastness and vastness.Su Zhe closed his eyes and sighed softly: "Maybe she will be sad. When she returns to Linhuai City... she will get better..."

In the inn, Xue Wanxiang listened to Deputy Leader Liu repeating these words, feeling in a trance that a torrential rain a few days ago had suddenly wet her heart.
