My delicate husband
Chapter 165: Trapped in the Snow
Zhang Xiaomo told Lan An that Zhang Xiaohua is living a good life now and has let it go. Lan An is very happy to hear that. After all, she is Zhang Xiaomo's sister, and Lan An hopes that she can live a good life.
The snow never stopped falling since it started, and it continued on and off for a week. Lan An and Zhang Xiaomo had run out of their medicines. There was no other way, so Zhang Xiaomo planned to go to the county town in the heavy snow.
Lan An disagreed and was worried, but the medicine could not be stopped. Lan An's situation was special now, so there was no other way, so he could only ask Brother Man and Brother Xu to accompany Zhang Xiaomo on the trip.
Lan An is now bored and starts making purses. Zhang Xiaomo is really jealous when he learns that Lan An gave his first purse to Brother He. Although Brother He was asked to put the household money in it, Zhang Xiaomo is still very unhappy. He personally asks Brother He for the purse back and puts it in a small box at home, which is the box for the most important things in the house.
Guo Ge'er still insisted on making cotton clothes, which happened to be a good opportunity for him to accompany Lan An. Zhang Xiaomo was now worried about Lan An and firmly disagreed to let Lan An stay alone. When leaving, he repeatedly told Guo Ge'er to take good care of Lan An.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the snow on the road had already reached Zhang Xiaomo's calves. Looking at the increasing snow, Brother Man and Brother Xu were a little worried, and Zhang Xiaomo also frowned.
"Brother Man, speed up."
"Okay, Master."
When he arrived at the county town, Zhang Xiaomo did not stop for a moment and went directly to Chunqiu Hall, but unfortunately, Doctor Zhu was not there.
Seeing that the snow was getting thicker and thicker, it was becoming more and more difficult for the carriage to travel. Brother Xu and Brother Man both wanted to persuade Zhang Xiaomo to go back to the village first, but Zhang Xiaomo refused. The road would definitely be closed for a while, and he had to find Doctor Zhu to get medicine today.
County Magistrate Wu did not expect that he would receive a letter from Brother Xia. He opened it with great joy, but when he saw the content of the letter, he was already in a bad mood, and now his mood became even worse.
Brother Xia was quite surprised to receive Zhang Xiaomo's letter. He was also a little heartbroken when he learned what Brother Wu had done. He really treated Lan An as his younger brother, but he didn't expect that his relationship with Brother Wu would cause Lan An to almost lose his life, and it was a double death.
Brother Xia knew what Brother Wu wanted to do, and he also condoned it, but the Lan Euan incident sounded a wake-up call for him. He could no longer involve innocent people. No matter how bad this country was, it belonged to his Xia family, and he could not be a sinner who was ashamed to face his ancestors.
Brother Xia wrote a letter to Brother Wu, not blaming him too much, but using their affection to force him to become a gentleman.
Brother Xia also said that he wanted to work with someone who could help him. He wanted to see peace and prosperity. If Brother Wu still wanted them to go back to the way they were before, then he should take control of the Wu family and replace his father's position.
When Brother Wu saw the letter, he just smiled bitterly. He knew that Brother Xia was forcing him to give up their feelings, forcing him to be a loyal minister, forcing him to save the country, and forcing him to give up his plan.
Brother Wu knew without hesitation that Zhang Xiaomo must have written a letter to Brother Xia. He smiled bitterly. It was his fault for touching the person Zhang Xiaomo cared about the most. But he just wanted to have the person he liked. He didn't think he had done anything wrong.
Brother Wu handled government affairs patiently, and he also admired Zhang Xiaomo's scheming and means. This winter was indeed very cold and snowed heavily. Although preparations were made in advance, houses in some villages still collapsed.
The snow in the county town was very deep. Brother Wu had already asked his lawyer to arrange people to deal with the snow. The end of the year was approaching, and he had some government affairs to deal with. Brother Xia's letter also made him determined not to hide in this small county town anymore.
Because the streets of the county town were full of yamen runners, the news of the avalanche in Luyu Village quickly reached the county town. When Brother Wu heard the news, he did not delay and immediately called the doctor from Chunqiu Hall and all the yamen runners to help.
Zhang Xiaomo came to Chunqiu Hall but did not see Doctor Zhu. After asking around, he found out that he had gone to Luyu Village. After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaomo decided to go to Luyu Village to find Doctor Zhu despite the dissuasion of Brother Man and Brother Xu.
Lan An was also a little worried at home. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and it would not stop for some time. Zhang Xiaomo had been in the county town for so long and had not come back yet. He must have encountered some trouble. Lan An was inevitably a little distracted. His fingertips were pricked by the needle, and the dark green bamboo leaves were stained red. Lan An was a little upset. It seemed that he had to embroider again.
Guo Ge'er was a little nervous when he saw Lan An's finger still bleeding, so he quickly asked Lan An to deal with it. Fortunately, it was not very noticeable, otherwise he would definitely be scolded when Zhang Xiaomo came back.
"Ah, Ange, your hand is bleeding, bandage it quickly."
"Brother Guo, it's okay. It's healed thanks to the bandage."
"Are you worried about my brothers?"
"The snow is so heavy, I think the road will be closed."
"It's okay, he should be back soon."
Aunt Li made some soup and Lan'an drank some. The floor heating in the inner room was warm and Lan'an felt a little sleepy, so Guo Ge'er coaxed Lan'an to sleep.
When Guo Ge'er came out of the room, he saw Brother Kong walking around anxiously in the yard. Guo Ge'er shivered in the cold wind.
"Brother Kong, why don't you go inside and warm yourself by the fire?"
"I'm just worried. It's been so long since I left."
"It's okay, just wait a little longer. Come in quickly and don't catch a cold."
Guo Ge'er tried to persuade him a few more times, but Brother Kong still refused. Guo Ge'er did not insist. He planned to roast some potatoes. It would be nice to eat a hot and sticky potato in winter.
