The night at the end of autumn came very early, as if the sun had set in Xishan in the blink of an eye. Takita Town is also surrounded by a layer of shadow.
When Ye's arrived in Takita Town, he did not live in an inn, but in a farmer's house. Because Shangda feels that living in an inn is prone to accidents, it is safer and safer to stay in a farmer’s home early.
Shangda didn't come back until midnight, and when he entered the house, he met Ye's and said, "We have to wait two days before we can pass the Tiger Mountain with the refugees."
Ye's had some doubts, and asked, "Did something happen?" Before Shangda went out, he explained that he could cross the Tiger Mountain on the day. When he came back, he said that it would take two days to leave, and something must have happened.
Shangda said in a low voice: "Lu's group was caught by the bandits, and the bandits and his wife demanded a ransom of 200,000 taels. With this, not only the government has conducted strict investigations, but they have also been careful one by one when they crossed the Tiger Mountain. Check."
Ye's face changed, and he said, "Then can we go there safely?" Yuxi would pay out two hundred thousand taels of silver to redeem Lu Xiu. That was because Lu Xiu took two sons with him. She is alone now, Yuxi may not use the money to redeem her.
Shangda said, "Don't worry, as long as you follow my instructions, there will be nothing wrong." Yeh's disease has been ill for so long and has not gotten a good rest. He has lost a lot of bones. In addition, the disease has not healed, and his face is sallow, as long as he puts on shabby clothes, it is no different from those hungry people. The only trouble is not Ye's, but Li's mother. Mother Li's body is well maintained, with a face of wealth, she hasn't lost much weight after such a long journey. Mother Li at this meeting did not look like a suffering old lady even if she was wearing shabby clothes.
Mother Li was a little panicked, and said, "What should I do?" Mother Li thought that the meat that was raised all over her body was a blessing, but she did not expect that one day she would have her life in danger because of this.
Shangda said, "Let the big grandma pass first, and you will pass after two days. At that time, I will arrange an identity for you. Even if you are caught by bandits, we will send someone to redeem you." Those fierce tiger mountain generals Mother Li was arrested, and at most she thought she was an old lady from a wealthy family. As long as the arrangements are in place, at most a ransom of one hundred and eighty taels will be paid.
Seeing Mama Li's face pale, Shangda said, "Don't worry, these bandits are just asking for money. As long as someone pays a ransom, they will let them go." Bandits also need to be credible. If the arrest is taken and the ransom is not released, no one will pay the ransom if the hostage is arrested, so Shangda is not worried about the safety of Li's mother.
With a look of guilt on his face, Ye's said: "Mother Li, I'm hurting you."
Although Mama Li was afraid, she didn't blame Ye's family: "What did the grandma say? I stayed here willingly. Besides, Brother Shang also said that nothing will happen."
Shangda found a local man in Luliang City with the surname Humang. This man has an old lady who is not married. I couldn't live in my hometown. I heard that Yanzhou Cheng had a better life, so I wanted to take my old mother to the northwest to find a way to survive. He sold all his belongings and collected enough tolls.
Shangda found him, Xu paid a lot of money, and asked him to send Ye clan to the Tiger Mountain. Hu Mang felt that although it was dangerous, as long as he passed the customs smoothly, not only would the mother and his wife not worry about their lives in the future, but also marry a house wife. Hu Mang almost did not hesitate to agree.
But here comes the problem again. The bandits in Tiger Mountain are all human beings. Not only do they investigate carefully, they also have to make the people who cross the mountain speak. Yeh's spoken Beijing dialect, and he would be exposed as soon as he opened his mouth.
When it came time to prepare for the day of the Tiger Mountain, Shangda said: "When you go to the Tiger Mountain, you must never speak, you know?" Ye's is like this. Unless someone knows her, no one believes this is what it used to be. Mrs. Guo Gong.
Ye's body is weak, and after a short walk, he can't walk anymore. Seeing that they were already behind the group, Hu Mang knelt down and said that he wanted to carry Ye's back.
As far as Ye's education is concerned, let alone let men carry it, even if other men touch it, it won't work. Ye's immediately shook his head towards Hu Mang, indicating that he didn't need it.
Hu Mang could force Ye's back on his back regardless of Ye's wishes. They have fallen behind the others, and they will delay the people in front of them. Even if they pass the Tiger Mountain safely, they will not be able to reach the nearest village. Then they will sleep in the wild and encounter wild animals. Up.
Ye's family didn't dare to resist. There were so many people next to him. Once they resisted, they would definitely arouse people's suspicion. No matter how important the fame is, no life is important. I believe that even if the husband and mother-in-law knew about it, they would not dislike her.
When approaching the investigation, Ye's pretended to be dizzy. The leader asked Hu Mang: "Who are these two of you?" Hu Mang and his mother are not only very thin because of malnutrition, but also have a sallow face, which is about the same as Ye's who is not fully ill.
Hu Mang explained the identities of the two, and then took out the toll. Hu Mang's mother watched the bandit reach out to take the money, and said to Hu Mang, "Let your wife come down?"
Hu Mang did not dare to resist and put Ye's down. As a result, Ye's fell to the ground softly. This is not a pretense, Ye's was stunned by the sun.
Reckless his mother said something.
The bandit became impatient and waved his hand and said, "Past, hurry over." Ye's current appearance is too deceptive.
After the Tiger Mountain, it is the boundary of the northwest, and there are also defenders guarding here. Hu Mang boldly found the general of the defending army.
Guarding the border was a confidant of Liu Yongnan, and the person who heard that it was from Shangda did not dare to delay, and immediately sent the person to the county seat.
When Han Hao got the news, he immediately went to recognize the person, and saw that it was the Ye clan. He immediately fulfilled Shangda's promise and gave Hu Mang a hundred taels of silver.
Qiu cried too hard to see Ye clan who was unconscious. Along the way, their family really suffered too many crimes.
Han Hao said, "Old lady, the doctor has already seen it. The eldest lady is not in danger of life, as long as she raises it for a while, she will be fine. The grandmother of the fourth aunt's grandmother is best at conditioning people's body. Madam will be able to take care of her body soon." In fact, Ye's condition is very serious, and these words are all relieved by Han Hao.
Lu Xiu also persuaded: "Mother, don't cry. If the sister-in-law wakes up and sees you crying, she will definitely be sad. Although the road has been a little bitter, you don't have to worry about it in the future. It's worth the pain. Yes." At least, the family went to the northwest safely.
Qiu Shi wiped his tears and said, "You are right, when your sister-in-law is in better health, we will go to Gaocheng." Fortunately, the two places are not far away, and you can get there in about ten days by horse-drawn carriage. This will be different from before, the road is safe, no longer worry about bandits and robbers.
One day later, Yuxi got the news and knew that Ye's had arrived in Suiyuan. Yuxi said to Han Jianming, "Brother, sister-in-law has arrived in Suiyuan, but the situation is not very optimistic. Brother, you put the things on hand and go to Suiyuan!"
Han Jianming's face turned pale and said, "Your sister-in-law is in danger of life?" This will make Han Jianming particularly regret. Knowing that Ye's body can't stand it, let her stay in Baoding to recover. Although it is dangerous, it may not be able to catch it.
Yuxi hurriedly shook her head and said, "Liu Yongnan only said that his sister-in-law is very ill, and did not say that she is in danger of life. But I think if you can be with her at this time, she will definitely make her sister-in-law very happy." This person is in a good mood. , The body gets better and it will be soon. She was able to recover so quickly from the previous trauma, not only because of the effect of the elixir, but also because of Yun Qing.
If Ye's just got sick, Han Jianming would definitely not leave what he was doing and go to Suiyuan. But what Yuxi said just now made him a little nervous: "The doctor in Suiyuan is definitely not good at medical skills. I'll take a doctor over."
Yuxi nodded and said, "Big Brother, I have already asked Dr. He." Yuxi has chosen a five-entry house for Han Jianming. It's just that Han Jianming is in Gaocheng alone, so Han Jianming is staying at the Governor's Mansion for the time being. ,
Han Jianming said: "Then I'll be on the road when Dr. He arrives!" There is no delay for a moment. If the delay deteriorates, it is too late to regret.
Yuxi also hurried back to the backyard to get a packet of powdered medicine, and said to Han Jianming, “Sister-in-law is weak. When she wakes up, you can divide this packet of medicine into three for him to drink.” A small packet for a normal person, three words for a patient It's almost divided.
Han Jianming took it and said, "Yuxi, thank you." Needless to say, Han Jianming knew it was a good thing.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "Brother, what can the family say to you? I only hope that my sister-in-law will be safe." My sister-in-law will suffer this crime, and she is also responsible.
Han Jianming nodded and said, "Don't worry, your sister-in-law will be fine."
Mother Quan knew that Yuxi had sent two packets of powdered medicine out, and she felt a little distressed, and said, "You still have to stay a little longer, don't give this thing anymore. Give one package, one less."
Yuxi said: "Sister-in-law will suffer this crime because of me. If there is a long and two shortcomings, I will be guilty for the rest of my life." Now there are not many meat Ganoderma lucidum left, Yuxi no longer eats it now, keep it just in case.
Mother Quan disagreed with this statement: "They came to the Northwest of their own accord, and you did not force them to come. What is your guilt?"
Yuxi said: "I won't be anymore." Seeing that Mother Quan wanted to say something, Yuxi hurriedly changed the subject and asked: "Did you tell Zhang Liniang about the thing I mentioned to you two days ago?"
Grandma said: "Liniang did not agree. She said she would never marry again in this life. It is normal to not want to marry after suffering such injuries." Grandma originally trained Zhang Liniang to be a helper for Yuxi. of. Now Zhang Liniang assists Mama Qu in managing the house affairs, and when Mama Qu retreats when she is old, she will be able to go up.
When Yuxi saw this, he didn't say anything. Zhang Liniang herself disagrees, and Xu Daniu probably gave up on it. R8
