An Ran once heard from his grandfather that Ding Changhe's grandfather was plotted and fell from the mountain, suffering multiple fractures and internal injuries.
By chance, he was rescued by Grandpa An who went up the mountain to collect herbs. He didn't make a sound during the bone setting process. Grandpa An exclaimed, what a man he is.
He stayed at An's house for ten days to recuperate, and then left alone. When he came to thank him again, he and Grandpa An decided to marry Ding Changhe and An Ran.
Grandpa Ding Changhe was away at war all year round, and the whole house relied on Mrs. Ding. When Mrs. Ding was alive, the house was peaceful.
However, Mrs. Ding got sick and died when she moved with Mr. Ding. Later, the Ding mansion was handed over to the Ding Han family, and things happened from time to time.
At that time, Old Master Ding told Ding Shengkang and Ding Changhe that Ding Han's lack of thought in doing things would sooner or later cause trouble for the Ding family.
At that time, Ding Shengkang was infinitely ashamed. He was the one who insisted on marrying her, and he didn't expect it to be like this.
An Ran saw Ding Changhe like this and secretly thought, maybe it was Ding Han who did something again. ?.?????.???
Ding Changhe sat in the chair, his face a little gray. "My grandfather fought all his life to build the foundation of the Ding family. My father and I fought bloody battles on the frontier for many years to achieve this military success. I want to revitalize the Ding family, but the biggest headache for me is not outside, but mine. Mother."
Ding Changhe looked at An Ran intently, and when he saw that An Ran was silent, he said, "Sit down."
After An Ran sat down, Ding Changhe saw An Ran with her hair disheveled and a plain face, looking very delicate under the light.
When he lowered his head, he saw that the wrist on the table was red again, "I'm sorry, I hurt you this afternoon. An Ran, what should you do if you encounter this situation?"
An Ran was shocked when Ding Changhe actually apologized to her.
An Ran kept her face blank and said softly: "She is your mother. You can do anything and say anything to her, but others can't."
Ding Changhe also knew that he had a headache just because she was his mother.
Ding Changhe was silent for a while and said softly: "Do you know that the situation has been unstable in the past few years."
An Ran nodded, "I have a feeling that the border areas and beyond the Great Wall are not peaceful either. Last year there were disasters and many people died."
An Ran raised her head and asked, "Can you tell me whether things will change in the next few years?"
Ding Changhe raised his head and glanced at An Ran, a little surprised, but still said: "It should be possible, the prince can't wait."
"You and the prince are not in the same camp."
Ding Changhe looked at An Ran and said, "Yes, so the Ding family is very dangerous and you must be careful."
An Ran also looked directly into Ding Changhe's eyes, "What do you want me to do."
The corners of Ding Changhe's mouth turned up slightly, smartly.
"If I am ordered to go on another expedition, I still want to entrust you with the affairs of the house." He was worried about leaving it to others.
An Ran was unhappy.
Ding Changhe also knew that An Ran would not agree so readily.
"Within my ability, I will keep Xiao Shitou safe and pave the way for him in the future."
"Even if Xiao Shitou succeeds in the future, it will be for your Ding family to honor your ancestors. What kind of conditions do you have?"
"Then what do you want, just say it."
An Ran raised her eyebrows and looked at him, "Then I'll tell the truth. Don't fall out."
This is so direct.
Ding Changhe also raised his eyebrows and said, "Say it, I'll listen."
An Ran said: "I don't want to go back to live in the Ding family. You also know how your mother treats me. She is the elder, and I can't contradict you. But you and my father-in-law are not at home. I can't control this family, so you still let me and my little one." Let Shitou live in the country."
"You hate the Ding family so much."
"I can't say, it's just not worth it."
Ding Changhe looked at An Ran deeply for a few more times before turning and leaving.
That night, An Ran couldn't sleep well. She lay on the kang alone and thought a lot. She fell asleep in the middle of the night.
But just after dawn, the door was knocked again.
Sister Chen opened the door and shouted "Ah", "Grandma, come over quickly and take a look, something happened to uncle."
An Ran didn't sleep well last night, and his mind was a little groggy, but this voice woke him up.
Dashan lay motionless on the ground, and Ding Changhe was covered in blood. He would have fallen down if he hadn't been holding on to the courtyard door.
An Ran hurriedly stepped forward, moved the person inside, and closed the door again.
He supported Ding Changhe and asked, "What's going on?"
Ding Changhe shook his head, pointed to the chair, and An Ran hurriedly helped him go over and sit down.
At this moment, Da Shan, who was lying on the ground, moved, struggled to sit up, leaned against the courtyard wall, breathed out, and said: "Finally got rid of it."
Seeing how embarrassed the two of them were, An Ran hurriedly said to Sister Chen, "Go and boil some hot water and bring my medicine box."
Because Xiaoshi was often injured, Anron prepared some medicine to stop bleeding and reduce swelling, as well as gauze.
Sister Chen boiled water and brought two more bowls of water. After they finished drinking, Ding Changhe said, "I was attacked on the way back last night."
An Ran was silent for a moment and said, "You are considered powerful now, and there are still people targeting you."
Ding Changhe said: "Because of this, occupying an important position, I want to be pulled down even more."
An Ran said: "Go inside first. If you are injured, see if I can help you with the medicine. If it doesn't work, you have to go back to Fucheng."
Ding Changhe was really embarrassed at this time. An Ran helped him up and slowly entered the main room.
After taking off his clothes, he saw that he had been stabbed in the shoulder and had several stab wounds on his body.
An Ran cut off the clothes sticking to his flesh and wiped away the bruises with warm water.
The wound was deep, so An Ran took a needle and thread to stitch it up.
Fortunately, it's only the shoulder area.
Apply medicine and wrap it in gauze.
