However, Gu Yueyan found out from feeling Su Zhenbei's pulse that the poison in his body seemed to be controlled by something. It didn't disappear, but it didn't break out either. (Of course it was the life-extending pill produced by the system, hehe!)
After treating Su Zhenbei's injury, Gu Yueyan tore off the mugwort warming patch given by her mother-in-law. She did as her mother-in-law said and left it for a while. She unexpectedly found that the thing had become hot.
She put two mugwort warming patches, one on Su Zhenbei's lower back and the other on his lower abdomen.
As smart as Gu Yueyan was, she had noticed something was wrong when Su San and Su Zhenbei woke up one after another. It was all related to the third brother Su Sinan. Before this, the third brother was holding the younger sister Su Mibao.
Now, my mother-in-law has brought so many strange and good things again.
Just now, my mother-in-law was staying close to my younger sister, whispering something to her from time to time.
Thinking back...
How did my mother-in-law know that my stepmother would kill my younger brother tonight? And the matter of Aunt Seven...
And that old fox from Qianyin Pavilion actually gave goat milk to my little sister?
All of these flashed through Gu Yueyan's mind.
Su Mibao, the youngest sister of the Su family, is a strange child.
Gu Yueyan looked at her mother-in-law who had already sat back next to her grandmother and was whispering something to her. The mother-in-law took out something from her wide sleeves and stuffed it into the mouths of the children under the cloak one by one.
It seemed like there was a cornucopia in my mother-in-law's sleeve, as if many things could grow from it.
But who is Gu Yueyan? She is patient, steady and shrewd.
She saw through it but didn't say it, but at the same time, she believed more and more that her decision was right. Leaving the Gu family, taking her younger brother with her husband's family, even if it was exile, it was a kind of happiness.
Gu Yueyan touched the wound on her face, which had already been healed by Hua Shan. But such a long and deep wound was bound to leave a scar.
From then on, she was a woman with a scar on her face.
Gu Yueyan lowered her head and looked at the unconscious, wounded but still incredibly handsome man - her husband.
Even if he became an exiled prisoner, he was still Su Zhenbei, such a beautiful and proud person.
Would he marry a disfigured woman?
If he wakes up, gets better, and doesn't despise her, then she will be with him for the rest of her life, even if they have to travel the world and make the world their home.
If he disliked her, she would wait until she healed his wounds and arrived at the place of exile before leaving.
after all,
He and she, at first, had a political marriage arranged by their parents and matchmakers.
(Haha, the eldest sister-in-law was really wrong this time. She didn’t know that her husband treated her like more than just a parent.)
Gu Yueyan made up her mind to protect everyone in her husband's family with her medical skills during her future exile, because she loved this family so much, and this family gave her something that the Gu family never had - family affection.
It's late at night, and only the wind is wandering around the world.
At dawn, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the dungeon, the shouting of officials, the cracking sound of whips hitting people, and the crying and screaming of men and women...
Sumi was startled and opened her eyes. She saw that the cell door opposite was opened and a group of people were driven in like pigs.
The men wore shackles and the women were tied together with ropes.
"Hurry up and eat quickly. We'll be on the road in half an hour."
The officer shouted, and several jailers came in carrying wooden buckets.
The jailer shouted and kicked the prisoners who were sitting or lying on the floor in the cell.
With a few clangs, five large wooden bowls were thrown to the ground. The fat jailer used a spoon to stir the bucket, then scooped some into the bowls. It was a kind of vegetable paste with a mixture of yellow and green, giving off a smell of overnight stale food.
"It's time to distribute steamed buns. Each adult gets one, and each child gets half a bun."
The thin jailer carried a wicker basket and distributed black steamed buns to everyone.
Hey, they actually gave us breakfast before we set off? Sumi looked at the suspicious color on the big wooden barrel. She had every reason to suspect that this big wooden barrel was actually a pig feed barrel. The soup with a whistling smell inside might be the soup left over from feeding the pigs last night.
Even though it is a big prison, it is still under the feet of the emperor. Giving the exiled prisoners a meal before they set off so that they have the strength to walk can be considered a kind of humane care.
This money was sent from the Ministry of Revenue to the Ministry of Justice. After being stripped off layer by layer, there would probably not be much left when it came to the hands of the person who actually managed the food. After scraping off another layer, it would be good enough to give him some pig soup. Anyway, once the exiled criminal left the prison, he would never come back.
Su Mi pouted. No, she had to find a way to give her family something good to eat before they set off. Otherwise, the old, weak and sick in the family would faint before they even leave the capital if they set off on an empty stomach.
Sumi felt a little regretful now. She should have woken up earlier and given her family something to eat before the jailer came. Now with so many people watching, it was not easy to sneak some food.
"Ah—my head."
A woman in the cell opposite cried out in pain.
Sumi looked up and saw that because the people on the other side had just arrived, men, women, young and old were all rushed directly into the cell opposite without being separated.
A man wearing a wooden yoke on his head was picking up a black steamed bun. When he bent over, the yoke hit the head of the woman next to him. The woman immediately covered her head and blood flowed out through her fingers.
Oh no, how could I forget something so important?
Sumi's pupils trembled and she shouted, "It's over."
After eating, they would set off. Men over ten years old would be put in shackles. Among the seventeen people in their group, Dad, Big Brother, Steward Su, and Su San all had to wear shackles.
Sumi quickly opened the mind-reading option. She clicked on one-way, so she could hear the thoughts of everyone around her. As for two-way mind-reading, she chose blood relatives, so anyone who was related to her by blood could hear her thoughts.
She remembered that the original book said that several major events happened on the day the Su family was exiled. They almost didn't make it out of the capital alive.
Today, she has to be extremely careful.
"Rabbit, can you transform?"
Su Mi felt that if she wanted to protect everyone in the Su family by herself, she would not be able to do so.
"Master, yes."
"Then you turn into a rabbit pattern and lie on my little hat."
The rabbit was also excited, as it could finally go out and see the world with a legitimate reason.
Sumi is wearing a baby rabbit hat. Because Sumi is born in the Year of the Rabbit, she was wrapped in a rabbit embroidered swaddling cloth and a rabbit hat at the 100-day banquet. The baby is afraid of cold, so the pink rabbit hat has a circle of white fox fur. There is a vivid little white rabbit embroidered on the hat. She is holding a gourd and smiling innocently.
The rabbit came out, and outsiders could not see any changes. But if you really look closely, you can see that the rabbit seems to be alive. It turns out that the rabbit's eyes are inlaid with rubies, which will emit a dazzling light in the sun. At this time, in the dim dungeon, a deep light is emitted, as if a pair of eyes are looking at the world.
"Hey, where are you touching?"
Su Mi twisted her head and saw the fat jailer put his hand into Lu Xianglian's prison uniform...
