Jin Yong was seriously injured.
A bag of lime fell on his head, preventing him from using any of his martial arts skills at all.
He was ambushed by a villain, and the murder weapon turned out to be his own!
Before Jin Yong's consciousness became blurred, his last thought was: Is the woman who ambushed and attacked him Xia Yujiao?
Before he could find the answer, he fainted.
Although Jin Yong was later rescued by passers-by and sent to the clinic in time, the wound was so long that the shallowest part was still an inch deep, and he had bled a lot. It was a 50-50 chance that he could survive.
Zhou caught a cold, sneezed a lot, and fell seriously ill.
However, she still thought that she had succeeded this time, and the heavy stone weighing on her heart was lifted, and she naturally felt much more relieved from the bottom of her heart.
Although this time the disease seems to be severe, it is not difficult to treat.
According to the doctor, there is nothing serious.
Just warm the middle and dispel the cold, then disperse the dampness to the body surface, and have a good rest for a few days.
First drink Ma Huang Gui Zhi Tang for a few days, and then have a cup of tiger bone wine after dinner every day. Drink this for a year or two, and even the bone pain will be cured.
Mrs. Wu had packed her bags and moved to the inn to accompany and take care of her sister-in-law Xia Yujiao.
Everyone in the Xia family spoke with one voice, saying only that the sister-in-law was missing. It turned out that she had gone into the mountains alone to pick mushrooms and wood ear mushrooms, but unfortunately she encountered a pack of wolves and was chased by them and fell off a cliff.
He was so frightened that he was taken aback. Now, he was staying at the inn in the town with his third sister-in-law, Wu, so that he could see a doctor and get treatment.
This excuse was thought of by Xia Daohua.
Because she still had several wolves stored in her space. If the need arose, she could always take out fresh wolf skins and wolf meat to prove her aunt's experience.
Of course, she didn't dare to say this out loud, but it would be very easy to "accidentally hunt" a few wolves when the time comes.
After hearing this, Zhou felt relieved.
Now that she had a reasonable excuse, Xia Yujiao wouldn't be subjected to too many rumors even if she didn't move for a while.
Zhou said to her family seriously:
“Yujiao is a good child, but unfortunately she has a miserable life.
After this experience, she's probably going to be an old maid in our Xia family for the rest of her life.
Don't worry, your father and I will take care of her as long as we live. As for when we reach Shoulu in the future, we will naturally make arrangements in advance.
We have to be frank today.
I don't care what outsiders do.
But among our family, if anyone bullies her because of this, or makes her angry, or gives her a hard time, or speaks in a sarcastic way in front of her, or says something nonsense...
Don't blame me, your mother, for not giving you face!"
Zhou's tone was serious with a hint of sadness at first, but as she spoke, it became a little mournful.
Everyone in the Xia family couldn't help but shiver when they saw Zhou's cold gaze.
Even Xia Youcai, whose face was almost engraved with viciousness, was no exception.
Each of them knew that the old lady's warning was not only to protect Xia Yujiao, but also to protect all the girls in the Xia family.
The customs of the Great Chu Dynasty placed quite strict requirements on women.
Although Beiguan Town is considered to have a tough and open-minded folk customs, it is still inevitably secular in some aspects.
At the very least, if a woman loses her virginity before marriage, it will be a black mark on her life that will never be erased.
If she died to prove her resolve, that would be fine. But if she dared to continue living, not only would she have to face countless rumors, but even the girls in her family would be implicated.
Every branch of the Xia family has a daughter.
The Xia family naturally did not want Xia Yujiao's affairs to implicate their daughter.
But, ask yourself, if your daughter encountered such a thing, could you bear to let her die?
Even Xia Youcai and Xia Yougui, the two most selfish members of the Xia family, might be shaken in their hearts, but they could not bring themselves to say the word "willing to give up".
After the old couple, especially Zhou, finished what they wanted to say, everyone in each room quietly returned to their own room, closed the door, and talked privately.
Xia Yougui and Erlang could not help but give Sun a warning, ordering her not to say anything about her sister-in-law, and not to spread the news outside.
If even a hint of it leaked out, I'm afraid Old Lady Zhou would remember it for the rest of her life.
Xia Yougui said to Sun with a serious face:
"As for this matter, just pretend you've never heard of it and just let it rot in your stomach!
No matter who spreads it, I can't let it come from you! Otherwise, my mother will be really angry, and I won't be able to persuade her. I can't make my mother angry to death, so I'm afraid I can only give you a divorce letter and send you back to the Sun family."
For the first time, Erlang agreed with Xia Yougui and quickly chimed in:
"Mom, my aunt didn't do anything wrong. She's just unlucky. You've always been a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. How could you bear to rub chili powder into her wounds?
Besides, if you reveal my aunt's affairs to outsiders, my grandma will definitely ask my father to divorce you!
By then, I won’t even have the face to plead for you.”
Sun nodded in agreement at first, but then she realized what was going on and became very angry:
"Hey, I'm telling you two, do you think so little of me?
No matter how eccentric I am, I have never done anything to show my worth, right?
If anyone dares to tell anyone about my sister-in-law, I will be the first one to not let her off and will tear her mouth apart!
Even if I don't care about others, my peach blossom, apricot blossom, and plum blossom, those three sisters will have to get married in the future!"
Even the Sun family has such awareness, let alone others.
Perhaps Xia Youcai lacked confidence in Jinhua, or perhaps he knew his daughters too well. After returning to town, he didn't even tell his two daughters the truth. Instead, he quoted the Xia family's external explanation:
"Your aunt was unlucky. She went into the mountains to pick mushrooms and encountered a pack of wolves. The wolves chased her and she fell off a cliff.
Fortunately, she was lucky enough to be rescued by a hunter in the mountains.
Unfortunately, your aunt was so frightened by the wolves that she lost her mind and can't even speak. She fell so hard that she can't move. Your third aunt went to take care of her.
Alas, I am such an unlucky girl, I am afraid I will never be able to get married in the future!"
Jinhua looked worried, but she was thinking anxiously:
"I wonder if this little aunt's matter will delay my remarriage..."
In room number one of the inn, there is a screen facing the door.
Behind the screen, Li Gan stood respectfully, his back bent and his head lowered, pointing to a hand-drawn map on the table:
"Look, here, here, and here, they've all changed."
