The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands
Chapter 236 Drunkard, Night Fright
Qin Fang was moved:
"Give Yaya a brighter life?
Can I?
Qin Fang has had a hard time since her husband died.
With her daughter, she not only had to work in the mountains, but also had to learn to make traps and hunt like her husband.
Occasionally, if I was lucky enough to hunt something good, I could go to the market to exchange it for some money to buy things for my children.
Even though she worked so hard, she still faced many difficulties.
At this moment, Qin Fang was both excited and worried when Jiang Wumei reminded her of this.
Jiang Wumei saw through Qin Fang's thoughts and reminded her with a smile:
"Sister Qin, don't worry about anything else. If you're willing, wait until my injury heals, and I'll take care of the rest for you."
Qin Fang hurriedly thanked her. When she rescued Jiang Wumei, Qin Fang knew that her family was of extraordinary background.
Right now, if she could help herself, Qin Fang would naturally be willing to do so.
Her daughter Yaya is almost nine years old now, and in a few years, she will be old enough to get married.
Even for the sake of her child, she didn't want to miss any hope.
The rain continued to fall.
Jiang Wumei completely let down her guard towards the mother and daughter, and became more and more relaxed talking to them.
That night, Jiang Wumei drank the medicine with Qin Fang's help and lay down. She listened to the sound of rain hitting the trees outside the window and slowly closed her eyes.
The bed beneath them was covered with thatch and the bedding was hard, but the mother and daughter could give it their best.
Jiang Wumei has a strong ability to adapt, so in this situation, she can only adjust herself as quickly as possible.
Sleepiness gradually came over Jiang Wumei. She calculated the distance and estimated how long it would take Zhao Qi and the others to find this place. Her eyelids became heavier.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, a dark shadow suddenly rushed outside the house, followed by the sound of dry firewood being knocked over.
Jiang Wumei was startled, and the sleepiness she felt disappeared without a trace. She stood up and called out alertly:
"Sister Qin, is that you?"
There was no response from outside the house, but Jiang Wumei heard unfamiliar footsteps.
Jiang Wumei frowned, her expression turned cold, and she said coldly:
"Who's outside?"
Still no one responded.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Wumei propped herself up and leaned towards the bed, reaching under the pillow where there was a pair of scissors that she had asked Qin Fang for yesterday.
Jiang Wumei knew that being rescued didn't mean she could rest easy.
She was not sure whether Zhao Qi found her first or the assassins.
Although these scissors can't do anything big, they can be used to threaten the assassins and prevent them from harming Qin Fang and her daughter.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wumei's eyes were cold as she stared at the closed wooden door and gripped one end of the scissors tightly.
In the suffocating silence, the door of Jiang Wumei's room was pushed open with a bang.
A dark shadow filled with the smell of alcohol rushed into the room. There was no light in the room. Before Jiang Wumei could fully react, the dark shadow staggered towards the bed.
"Qin, Qin Fang, you, you stinky bitch.
"I'm willing to sleep with you because I respect you. If you don't obey tonight, don't blame me for turning my back on you!"
The drunkard threatened with his tongue, and Jiang Wumei smelled a disgusting odor coming from the black shadow.
Thinking of the difficulties Qin Fang mentioned, Jiang Wumei's dark eyes were as cold as ice in the coldest days of winter, staring at the sloppy man who was approaching.
Just wait for him to take a few more steps forward and then poke out his eyes.
He was just a scoundrel, and she could kill him even if she had difficulty moving.
Qin Fang was afraid that this kind of person would continue to pester her, so she helped to get rid of him.
The drunkard Sun San kept walking forward. Today he lost money in a bet with his brother.
Watching his brother take the money he won from him into the brothel, Sun San was so angry that he went out to drink alone.
As he drank, he felt angry and thought of the cheap mother and daughter who lived in the wild forest.
When Qin Fang's husband was still alive, he was caught and beaten up several times by her husband for his frivolous words.
The most serious incident was when my leg was broken and I had to stay at home for two or three months, unable to go out and gamble.
Now, her man is dead and Qin Fang has been alone for a long time. What's wrong with letting him sleep with her?
So, Sun San, who was obsessed with lust, came back from drinking in the town and went straight to the thatched house where Qin Fang and her daughter lived in the rain.
Tonight, he had to sleep with the woman no matter what.
This was not the first time Sun San had done this.
I also know which room Qin Fang's is.
He climbed over the earthen wall and sneaked in. Seeing the slender figure swaying on the bed, the evil fire in his heart burned more and more fiercely. Even though he was so drunk that he could hardly stand steadily, he rushed to the bed in a hurry.
As soon as his hand touched the edge of the bed, he leaned forward with a foul mouth. In the dim light, Sun San seemed to find that Qin Fang, who was usually as thin as a bamboo pole, had gained some weight.
This excited him so much.
I didn't expect that after not seeing her for a few days, Qin Fang looked beautiful again.
After he gets her done today, he will beat drums and gongs tomorrow to announce it everywhere, telling people in the surrounding villages that Qin Fang is with him.
He just couldn't believe that after this, Qin Fang wouldn't go home with him obediently, do his laundry, cook for him, and work in the fields to earn money and serve him!
Sun Sanmei shuddered and stretched out his dirty hand to reach for the bed. However, before he could touch the woman, his entire palm was suddenly pierced by a sharp weapon.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"
The man's shrill screams startled countless birds outside the house.
"Don't be afraid, sister. I'm here to save you!"
After telling the children not to come out, Qin Fang rushed in holding a torch and a kitchen knife, but her legs went limp with fear at the scene before her.
Sun San covered his eyes which were cut by the scissors, and rolled on the ground wailing, like a toad in a gutter, struggling and howling continuously.
On the bed, Jiang Wumei's hair was not even a hair out of place. She held a pair of blood-stained scissors tightly in her hand. She smiled at Qin Fang and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, sister, I just injured a pervert.
From now on, just listen to me and I will make sure nothing happens to you and Yaya."
Meeting Jiang Wumei's gentle gaze, Qin Fang shuddered all over and felt inexplicably frightened.
The sister she rescued didn't seem as gentle and harmless as she appeared.
After several days of heavy rain, the sky gradually cleared up.
After the fright that night, Qin Fang faced Jiang Wumei with a caution that she herself did not even realize.
Jiang Wumei saw it but said nothing.
People are always wary and awed by things beyond their cognition, and Qin Fang's attitude towards her was within her expectations.
Under the care of Qin Fang and her daughter, Jiang Wumei was gradually able to walk and her condition improved.
But the situation is less optimistic elsewhere.
Not to mention Zhao Qi and the secret guards who were so anxious that they were smoking, even Tianqi who was thousands of miles away seemed to be affected by Xu Junjun, who was absent-minded the whole day.
When Xu Junjun pressed his finger while cutting the medicine for the third time, he took a deep breath, held the bleeding finger in his mouth, frowned and muttered:
"what happened?
I've been feeling restless these past few days, always feeling like something's going on. Could it be that something's happened to Niao Niao?"
Jun Xiaochen returned home early today. After receiving the news that Wei Dong would arrive in the imperial capital tomorrow, he went to Xu Junjun's yard in person to look for him.
Just as he reached the door, he saw another wound on Xu Junjun's finger, and Jun Xiaochen frowned slightly:
"Why are you so careless?"
Hearing the voice, Xu Junjun looked up and saw Jun Xiaochen striding into the room.
Before she could react, the man grabbed her bleeding fingertips and looked at them closely.
“Are you feeling unwell?
This king has noticed that you haven't been behaving as well as before these past few days."
Jun Xiaochen said with accusation:
"I told you to take the antidote two days ago, but you refused to listen. If this leaves hidden dangers, it will be too late for you to regret it."
Xu Junjun pulled back her fingers forcefully, rolled her eyes at Jun Xiaochen, and lowered her head to continue working.
"What nonsense! I was just distracted while doing something. It has nothing to do with the antidote.
If you have nothing to do, please ask for me how long it will take for Weidong and the others to return, so that I don’t have to ask my personal guards eight hundred times a day.”
Jun Xiaochen glanced at the messy medicinal herbs in the room, walked to Xu Junjun's side, picked up a ginseng and played with it:
"Weidong sent a message today, and it will arrive at the palace tomorrow evening. If you are anxious, I will order them to come look for you as soon as they arrive tomorrow."
Xu Junjun's face immediately lit up with a smile. She moved closer to Jun Xiaochen, gently took the ginseng from his hand, and said flatteringly:
"I'm a little anxious. I'll trouble you to speak to me tomorrow, Your Highness."
In Tianqi, Jun Xiaochen has absolute say. One word he says is equivalent to half a month of her grunting and panting.
Don't take advantage of the bastard.
As a leader in this field, Xu Junjun would naturally not miss this shortcut.
Looking down at Xu Junjun's bright little face, Jun Xiaochen's amber eyes smiled and he deliberately asked:
"Are you free to have dinner with me today?"
In the past few days, Xu Junjun was determined to stay away from him, both openly and secretly. Even if he wanted to accommodate her, after he came back from dealing with court affairs, the two of them had no chance to spend time together.
Today, taking advantage of this incident, Jun Xiaochen didn't believe that Xu Junjun could still hide.
Seeing the woman in front of him was stunned for a moment, then nodded with her neck stiffened, Jun Xiaochen glanced at her finger that was no longer bleeding and made an immediate arrangement:
"Then you bandage your finger first. After that, we'll go to the front hall to have dinner."
Jun Xiaochen has never had such patience with any woman. If it were someone else, he would have walked away long ago. Why would he spend so much effort and effort to please her?
Having followed his elders in distributing and making medicine since childhood, this injury is nothing to Xu Junjun.
Waving towards Jun Xiaochen to indicate that everything was fine, Xu Junjun walked in front of him.
When Jun Xiaochen was at home, the kitchen staff worked with full concentration.
Knowing that the prince would be dining with Miss Xu today, several chefs in the palace carefully prepared more than a dozen exquisite dishes according to the tastes of the two masters, vowing to make the prince satisfied today.
I don’t know whether the prince is satisfied or not, but Xu Junjun is quite satisfied.
Apart from anything else, the chef of the Regent's Palace was an expert in cooking. He specially prepared several spicy and delicious dishes to cater to the two masters. Jun Xiaochen hardly touched the dishes, but Xu Junjun nodded repeatedly while eating.
Finally, he strongly recommended one of the dishes, Crispy Double Peppers, to Jun Xiaochen.
This dish is made with chicken breast and tender rabbit meat. It tastes fresh and spicy, and is full of meaty aroma. It is deeply loved by meat lovers like Xu Junjun.
Jun Xiaochen doesn’t like spicy food, but seeing Xu Junjun recommending it with excitement, he took a piece just to give her face.
When he put it in his mouth, the spicy and numb tastes hit his taste buds violently, making him raise his eyebrows slightly and look at Xu Junjun who was looking expectant.
"Well, I was right, this dish is really good."
Jun Xiaochen nodded and gave his evaluation:
"Just like you, it's unforgettable."
If you savor it carefully, you will find that this spicy taste is just like her, which is as bright as a flame. It is unforgettable and cannot be ignored.
Xu Junjun frowned and stared at Jun Xiaochen unhappily.
"Are you praising me or insulting me?"
Jun Xiaochen curled his lips:
"This king never harms others."
The implication, of course, is to praise her.
Xu Junjun's expression improved a little. She stopped arguing with Jun Xiaochen and continued to eat with her head down.
Maybe it was because he was infected by Xu Junjun's good appetite, or maybe it was because more people were eating together that people's appetites increased, but Jun Xiaochen ate one more bowl than usual tonight. He finished half of the dishes on the table before putting down his chopsticks and waiting for Xu Junjun to finish.
Only after Xu Junjun touched her bulging belly and put down her chopsticks did Jun Xiaochen order people to clear away the dishes and chopsticks.
After finishing their meal, Xu Junjun and Jun Xiaochen rinsed their mouths with tea, then got up and went back to their house to digest their food.
The two of them walked along the nine-curve corridor of the palace, one in front and one behind, with a friendly attitude.
Jun Xiaochen lagged behind Xu Junjun by half a step, following her pace, and looked at her satisfied expression as he walked forward.
It was evening and a breeze was blowing. The hair on Xu Junjun's cheek was blown up by the breeze. A few strands of long black hair gently disturbed Jun Xiaochen's palm that was hanging down at one side, bringing a slight itch and stirring someone's heart.
Jun Xiaochen's fingertips moved lightly, and the cold long hair entangled with his fingertips. He lowered his eyes to glance at it, and finally let go, letting the long hair drift in the wind.
Xu Junjun was completely unaware. Seeing the Wei Zi flowers blooming in the garden, she quickly took a few steps forward and ran to the flowers, unconsciously keeping a distance from Jun Xiaochen.
A hint of pity flashed across Jun Xiaochen's eyes, but he didn't show it on his face. He walked forward and stood behind Xu Junjun, who was bending over to smell the flowers, and said:
"If you like it, I will have someone cut it off and put it in your room."
There are good things everywhere in Prince Jun Xiaochen's mansion, from the big carved beams and painted buildings to the small flowers and trees, all of which are good things that cannot be found outside.
Xu Junjun naturally knew it.
However, facing Jun Xiaochen's proposal, Xu Junjun still refused:
“No need, the flower should stay on the branch and be appreciated by more people, which is the only way to respect its blooming.
It would be boring to watch it alone in the room."
Xu Junjun fiddled with the peony petals with her fingertips, looked left and right, and walked around the garden before leaving with Jun Xiaochen.
The two of them spent an hour together today for the first time ever. As soon as it got dark, Xu Junjun made an excuse to go back to her room.
Jun Xiaochen saw through it but didn't say it out loud. After sending Xu Junjun back to the courtyard, he turned around and went to the study to handle some business.
The next day, in the evening, as Jun Xiaochen said, Wei Dong really led his men back to the imperial capital in a dusty manner.
When Xu Junjun, who had been waiting at the gate for a day, saw this, his expression was indescribable.
This Wei Dong was just ordered to pick up someone, so why did he come back like a wild man who had been living in the mountains for half a month?
Messy hair, shiny black coat, if it weren't for the pair of bright eyes that remained unchanged, Xu Junjun would not have recognized that the man in front of her was Wei Dong.
Xu Junjun was just about to go out to greet people when he saw two people getting off the horses behind him and suddenly retracted his foot.
Weidong brought back a young man and woman, who looked to be no more than 27 or 28 years old. Compared to Weidong's disheveled appearance, the two men were full of energy, and their eyes looked around curiously, full of curiosity and exploration.
Seeing that their clothes were somewhat exotic, with many silver ornaments on their bodies and silver collars around their necks, Xu Junjun supported his chin and looked into the distance.
Gu insect.
Poison.
The way these two people were dressed was somewhat like people from the Miao area in later generations. She should wait for Jun Xiaochen to return home and ask him in detail.
In order to avoid bringing bad luck to these people, it is not appropriate to carry out subsequent work.
Xu Junjun looked for a while, then quietly left the mansion and returned to her own yard.
Now that everyone is back, she doesn't have to rush.
