"By the way, Mr. Wang, I forgot to tell you that my wife is a descendant of the Luyang Wei family, so her attack is inevitably a bit harsh, and she is the only one who has the antidote to the poison she made. So next time you help Miss Lan'er, Be careful not to get accidentally hurt by her."
"You..." Wang Zhaofu was already frightened by Xie Luo. When he heard that only Xie Luo's wife had the antidote for this poison, he didn't care so much. He was so frightened that he immediately stood up and held on tightly. Shelo.
"Xie Luo, is your wife at home right now?"
"Oh, my wife is at home right now, but she is petty and only cares about me. If she knew that I was beaten with a military stick because of this today, I'm afraid she would be very distressed." Xie Luo Just making it up.
The bearded man and others listened on the sidelines, and they could hardly suppress their laughter.
Wang Zhaofu was already panicking. He pulled Xie Luo's sleeves and said tremblingly: "Like this, Xie Luo, I don't care about you hitting me anymore. Let your wife take out the antidote quickly, okay?"
"What? Didn't you say that the injury on your face was not caused by Lan'er?" Xie Luo asked knowingly.
Wang Zhaofu cried and sat down on the ground: "I... didn't I just see Miss Lan'er as beautiful? I was just blinded by lard for a while."
"Fengshen, look at your brother-in-law." Governor Ding obviously understood the whole story and kicked Wang Zhaofu on the shoulder. "Come here, take Wang Zhaofu down and give him a hundred military sticks."
"What...what's going on?" Wang Zhaofu didn't understand, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, please help me."
Feng Shen looked at Wang Zhaofu who still didn't know he was wrong when he was about to die, and he covered his eyes with hatred.
"The governor is wise." The bearded man and others complimented happily after hearing this.
The governor waved his hand: "You don't have to compliment me. I almost misunderstood Xie Luo."
"Feng Shen, why don't you apologize to Xie Luo quickly?" the governor said sternly.
Feng Shen knew that the matter had reached this point and there was no possibility of reversing it. He could only step forward and hugged Xie Luo: "Xie Luo, I did not find out about this matter and wrongly blamed you."
Xie Luo glanced at Feng Shen with a cold look, and replied calmly: "Master Feng, you are too polite."
"Okay, now that the matter has been explained clearly, let's let it go!"
The governor said to Liang Qingshan: "Xie Luo has been wronged in this matter today. I will hold a banquet here tonight and invite the brothers from the Pioneer Camp to drink and eat meat."
"Thank you, Lord Governor." Everyone cheered happily as they did not expect that the Lord Governor would be able to enjoy the wine.
Even Ding Zhangtai, who was timid just now, was very happy: "Dad, I want to stay too. I want to eat meat and drink wine with brother Xie Luo."
"Okay, this is how you look like a man." The governor said to Liang Qingshan, "Qingshan, you said that the Pioneer Battalion lacks a deputy commander, so let Xie Luo take over."
"Okay, that's what I mean too." Liang Qingshan put his arm around Xie Luo's shoulders, "Congratulations, brother."
"Lord Governor, I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Xie Luo bowed.
He is just a fugitive, how can he serve in the army?
"Whatever is wrong, I, Yazhou, have the final say. If I think you can do it, you can do it!"
Just when he needed to attract talents, God sent Xie Feng's son. It was God who helped him!
Not to mention the deputy commander of the small Pioneer Battalion, no matter how big an official you are, no one else dares to say anything!
"Thank you, Lord Governor!" Xie Luo bowed and saluted.
Governor Ding nodded with satisfaction, stared at Xie Luo seriously and said, "He is indeed Xie Feng's son, and his demeanor is no less impressive than Xie Feng's back then!"
…
That day, near dusk, Xi Jin and Lan'er finally completed General Gu's clothes.
Xi Jin put away his clothes and looked outside the door. Xie Luo hadn't come back yet, so he started to feel a little absent-minded.
Lan'er, who was standing by, was also a little worried, but looked at Xi Jin's heavy face and said nothing.
"Sister Jin, I'm going back to prepare dinner first. Brother Xie should be back soon. You can go about your business!" Lan'er left Xi Jin's house with a heavy heart.
"Okay." Xi Jin put away the needlework on the table and looked at the burden Xie Luo brought back. He couldn't help but think wildly. Is something really going to happen to him?
Xi Jin was deep in thought when he heard footsteps coming from outside the house. Xi Jin quickly went out to open the door, only to see a woman standing outside the house.
"Zhao Qiaoniang?" Xi Jin looked at the woman outside the house, "What's the matter with you?"
Zhao Qiaoniang raised her head and looked at Xi Jin standing at the door of the house. She was wearing a lotus-colored skirt.
The evening glow fell on her, making her look even more noble and elegant.
Zhao Qiaoniang lowered her head subconsciously, letting her hair cover the birthmark on her face.
"You asked my brother to pick mugwort for you?" Zhao Qiaoniang asked.
Xi Jin was slightly surprised and asked, "Is Ji'er your younger brother?"
"Yes." Zhao Qiaoniang handed over the basket in her hand, "This is the mugwort you asked Ji'er to pick."
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll get the money." Xi Jin took the mugwort from Zhao Qiaoniang's hand, went into the house, took the money and handed it to Zhao Qiaoniang along with the basket, "This is Ji'er's wages."
"Where's Ji'er?" Xi Jin got up late today and didn't know if Ji'er had come in the morning?
"Ji'er is at home."
Zhao Qiaoniang raised her head and looked at Xi Jin. Originally, Ji'er wanted to send mugwort to Xi Jin herself, but after hearing Ji'er say that it was for Xie Luo's wife, she decided to find out more.
"The wormwood is everywhere at the foot of the mountain. Your house is obviously closer to the foot of the mountain. Why do you let Ji'er pick it?" Zhao Qiaoniang asked.
Why is this Mu Xijin so kind-hearted, giving Ji'er such an easy opportunity to earn money?
"This is between Ji'er and I." Xi Jin didn't intend to say more to her, "Do you have anything else?"
"I..." Zhao Qiaoniang stroked her face and asked hesitantly, "Are you really good at medicine?"
Xi Jin immediately understood her purpose, and without asking any questions, he stepped forward, took her hand, felt her pulse, and took a closer look at the birthmark on her face.
"Wait." Xi Jin went back to the house, quickly wrote a prescription, and walked out again.
"Take it." Xi Jin handed her a prescription and said in a serious tone, "This is a prescription to cure the birthmark on your face. Take it twice a day and take it on time. After forty-nine days, the birthmark on your face will fade away." It's eight or nine, and the rest will have to be covered with makeup, or you can wait until I get better at my skills."
Zhao Qiaoniang raised her head in disbelief: "Why do you want to help me? I did that to you."
"Of course it's for Ji'er's sake!" Xi Jin looked at Zhao Qiaoniang coldly, "Ji'er has always told me that it's not easy for his sister. She has suffered a lot for her. Ji'er is a good child. I hope he It would be easier to live.”
When Zhao Qiaoniang heard this, her face was half ashamed and half moved. She bowed to Xi Jin and said, "Mu Xijin, I owe you."
"Little things." Xi Jin waved his hand nonchalantly.
After Zhao Qiaoniang left, Xi Jin came outside the courtyard gate again and looked in the direction of the village entrance.
The sun has set, why hasn't Xie Luo come back?
"Sister Jin, sister Jin." Lan'er ran over panting, glared at Zhao Qiaoniang as she left, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"
She just saw Zhao Qiaoniang running towards Sister Jin's house at her door. She was afraid that Zhao Qiaoniang would bully Sister Jin, so she ran over in a hurry.
"It's okay." Xi Jin asked Lan'er, "Is the bearded man back?"
"No." Lan'er has always been worried. She doesn't know if Big Beard and Brother Xie will be embarrassed by Wang Zhaofu?
