Chapter 92 I Will Avenge Myself
There are no villages in the mountains, so we rest in the woods beside the official road at night.
It's not bad here today. There are two woodsheds for hunters to rest. Although they are broken, the wooden floors are better than mud.
Yu Tiannan went to urinate and found a rabbit in the grass nest. With Jiang Yi's consent, several people went to catch it.
There was a hunter among them, so he knew a way. He blocked all the rabbit holes, leaving only one, and then smoked it.
Yu Tiannan borrowed another net bag from Feng Aoqing and filled it with fat rabbits.
They roasted the rabbit over the fire and ate it, saving the skin.
"Brother, this leather can be exchanged for silver later!"
"What's the point of exchanging it for silver! Leave it to Mr. Xing and Miss Yue to make hats and gloves. It will be cold if you go further north! I tell you, watch out for the fire. If you burn your pretty fur, I will beat you up!" Yu Tiannan commanded.
"Oh, then don't sell them. Let's save some and put them together to make coats for Mr. Xing and Miss Yue!"
"Yes, yes! You have a good idea! Let's go!" Yu Tiannan sat up from the fire.
"Brother, where are you going?"
"Go catch a few more! Miss Yue has gained weight, so we need two more!"
"Uncle, I'm not fat." Yuebao, who was watching the roasted rabbit, corrected with puffed cheeks.
"Ah, yes, Miss Yue is not fat, just right, just right, it's the rabbit that is too small." Yu Tiannan touched his head and quickly changed his words.
He only muttered in his heart, how can you still gain weight in such a hard exile? It's also amazing.
The Mo family had lost a loved one and had no interest in this matter, so they just drank some porridge and left it at that.
Tired from walking, Xingbao and Yuebao, who had eaten their fill, were in their father's and mother's arms respectively. They were still calling out "Jingtao" even when they fell asleep, and this call brought Feng Aoqing to tears.
She put the child down and walked out of the house. Mo Beiyuan also put the child down and followed her out.
"Ao Qing, don't be sad. Han Lang and I think the murderer might be the same group as the ones who attacked us last time. Jing Tao might have discovered their whereabouts and was silenced."
Mo Beiyuan looked at Feng Aoqing crying silently and felt distressed.
"You probably don't know how much she loves you. She listened to you, took care of grandma, took care of the princess who no one else wanted to take care of, and took care of two children who have no blood relationship with her. She did whatever you asked her to do, but she never got anything in return. Even if you showed her even a little pity, now she has lost her life, I don't know if it was worth it."
"You don't know how much Feng Aoqing loves you. If you call her name once, she will be happy for three days. If you come into the yard to drink a cup of tea, she will be happy for half a month. She is not a good person, but she has never hurt anyone. She also poured everything into you. In the end, she was killed by your mother and sister. I don't know if it was worth it."
"You may be worthy of the Emperor, the Princess, even the people, the whole world, but you are truly unworthy of these two. Even if you die, you will never be able to repay this debt."
"You don't have to have any thoughts or fantasies about me anymore, because I can't be the third person besides them, because you don't deserve it."
"From today on, please treat me as a stranger. Also, I will avenge Jing Tao myself."
Every word hit Mo Beiyuan's heart hard. He couldn't explain a single word because every word Feng Aoqing said was true.
Isn't the purpose of marriage to gain more power?
Whether it’s the royal family or the scholar family, who isn’t like this?
Before meeting Feng Aoqing, he had never had any expectations for his marriage. He didn't know that the person by his side would make him so happy.
But now, just like Feng Aoqing said, he doesn't deserve it.
From the next room, bursts of coughing came, almost non-stop.
"Brother, are you sick?" Zuo Sheng saw that Ma Chengji was about to cough out his lungs, so he took a cup of hot water from the stove and gave it to him.
After taking a sip of water, the coughing became even worse.
And now I not only have a cough, but I also feel a burning sensation in my stomach and some pain in my abdomen.
Really sick.
"Let Madam Mo come and take a look!" Jiang Yi suggested, noticing that his expression was not right.
Ma Chengji felt very uncomfortable, but he had always been mean to Feng Aoqing, so he didn't know whether she was willing to come for treatment.
Zuo Sheng went to call Feng Aoqing, and Feng Aoqing followed him without hesitation.
Mo Beiyuan was too embarrassed to follow Feng Aoqing anymore. He glanced at Mo Mingyuan, and Mo Mingyuan followed him out.
Feng Aoqing asked about the time of onset and how it felt, and carefully examined the tongue and fundus of the eyes, and pressed the abdomen... The examination was very thorough.
"Could it be an epidemic?" Jiang Yi asked worriedly.
"No, if his condition was so serious, the rest of us would have had symptoms a long time ago." Feng Aoqing answered affirmatively.
"Why is that?" Ma Chengji asked.
"It must have been soaked in dirty water before and got a bacterial infection."
Since no one understood what the disease was, Jiang Yi asked, "Can it be cured?"
"If it's a disease, it can be cured. I'll go get some herbs."
"That's good. It's late at night, so you better be careful." Jiang Yi asked with concern when he saw Feng Aoqing was not modest at all.
"Don't worry, I'm here!" Mo Mingyuan hurriedly followed him out.
After a while, Feng Aoqing came back and started cutting and boiling medicine in their room. Then she boiled a bowl of black, strange-tasting water for Ma Chengji.
When Ma Chengji saw this, he didn't dare to drink.
"Master Wei." Feng Aoqing called out.
Wei Ze took the bowl and took a sip without saying a word.
Everyone felt relieved when they saw it.
Because Feng Aoqing and Mo Mingyuan drank, they would definitely think that the two of them went outside to take the antidote, and Wei Ze did not leave. They did not know in advance that Feng Aoqing would come to see a doctor, so they definitely did not collude with each other.
Only then did Ma Chengji drink the medicine with peace of mind.
After drinking a cup of tea, all the symptoms of cough and abdominal pain were relieved.
"The young lady is really amazing. She can cure any disease. If she were a man, it would be incredible." Yu Bang praised.
"We have to pray for our own good now that we have dealt with their family. We'd better get to Hantian Valley and report as soon as possible. Do you think they can't escape? We can kill them at will, so who can stop us?" Zuo Sheng said with a click of his tongue.
"I heard that Lord Han came here to convey the eldest princess's order." Yu Bangshen said mysteriously.
"Shut up, this is something we can talk about! Do you want to lose your head?!" Chen Hetong kicked Yu Bang.
Yu Bang chuckled and quickly stopped talking.
Ma Chengji felt much better, breathed a sigh of relief, and ate half a bowl of porridge.
When he got up the next day, everything was back to normal. He thought to himself, it's amazing, it was cured with just one dose of medicine.
However, in the afternoon, Ma Chengji started coughing again.
He saw that it was a relapse, so he went to find Feng Aoqing himself.
"Cough, cough... Did you deliberately hold back and only give me one dose of medicine?!" Ma Chengji said angrily.
"I didn't tell you yesterday that it's normal to have symptoms recurring within three days. Just take another dose today. However, it will only be effective if you start to have abdominal pain. Otherwise, you'll still have abdominal pain even if you take it."
