Chapter 154 The Cooked Sister-in-Law Flies Away
Speaking of meals, Wen Lier began to talk to her family about how good Chef Li's cooking skills were.
Wen Zhiyan joked, "Don't eat yourself into a fat pear again."
Wen Lier glared at him: "Brother is annoying, I won't turn into a fat pear!"
Liang Yuhe interjected, "She looks better when she's a little fatter. Li'er has only just lost weight."
Wen Li'er shook her arms and shook her head repeatedly: "I don't want to be fat, Li'er is just right now!"
Seeing her daughter acting like a little girl, Liang Yuhe couldn't help but laugh: "Well, Li'er looks good like this too."
Wen Zhiyan and Wen Tingkuan just laughed on the side.
The whole family is happy.
Wen Li'er suddenly asked, "Brother, why haven't you gotten married yet?"
Wen Zhiyan is nearly two years older than Wen Lier. Wen Lier now has a son, Xiaoxiao, but Wen Zhiyan is still unmarried. This is totally unacceptable.
Wen Zhiyan's face froze when he heard this.
He secretly glared at Wen Li'er, but was seen by Wen Tingkuan.
Wen Tingkuan glared at him in return: "You're already old and still refuse to get married, and you still have the nerve to glare at your sister!"
Wen Zhiyan's mouth twitched slightly. It was too much for him at his age.
Liang Yuhe also urged Wen Zhiyan: "Mother will find a few more young ladies for you. You can't delay any longer. Only when you get married sooner can we feel at ease."
Wen Zhiyan pursed his lips and did not respond.
A figure in purple flashed through his mind, and his heart felt bitter.
Wen Li'er was still feeling guilty about causing her brother to be accused, so she secretly glanced at him and saw a different emotion in his eyes.
Wen Li'er's eyes lit up instantly.
Brother, does he have someone he likes?!
Why didn’t he tell his mother?
When Wen Lier thought of this possibility, she felt extremely anxious and really wanted to know!
A palace maid came over and reported: "Your Highness, the meal is ready."
Wen Li'er nodded and walked towards the dining hall with her family.
As they walked, she took her brother to see the autumn chrysanthemums that were in full bloom next to a pavilion, and then secretly asked him.
"Brother, do you have someone you like?"
"Which girl?"
"Is she good-looking?"
"What kind of temperament?"
"How are the relationships at home?"
"Younger or older than you?"
Wen Zhiyan: "..."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wen Li'er pretended to call her parents over.
Wen Zhiyan was practically terrified of her and said helplessly, "I don't know her name, nor do I know where she comes from."
Wen Li'er was dumbfounded: "Then how did brother like me?"
Wen Zhiyan couldn't stand his sister's entanglement, and he was also confused in his heart.
He then told her about his encounter with the girl in purple that day.
Wen Li'er was stunned after hearing this.
"Brother, did you look at the girl's body at that time?!"
Wen Zhiyan emphasized that he wanted to sew the little girl's mouth shut.
"I had no choice! It's inconvenient for her to bandage the wound herself!"
Wen Lier thought, an arrow hit the chest and an ankle was injured, he had been examined from head to toe.
The role of a hero saving the beauty fell on the older brother.
But he was so stupid that he didn't even ask where the girl came from!
"Brother, you you you you you..."
Wen Li'er was heartbroken!
Wen Zhiyan was a little embarrassed.
At that time, the girl in purple was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to die.
Even if he asked again, the other party might not tell the truth.
——
More than a year ago.
Wen Zhiyan accompanied his father to a place a hundred miles outside the city to check the land taxes.
It lasted for three days, and we stayed in farmers' homes at night.
That night, the farmer's ten-year-old son went fishing in the river with his friends and did not return for a long time.
The aunt was very worried and went out to look for him with an oil lamp.
Since we are staying in someone else's house, and Wen Tingkuan and Wen Zhiyan, father and son, are kind-hearted people.
The two of them also carried an oil lamp each and went to look for it separately.
When Wen Zhiyan found a peach orchard, he called the boy's name several times.
There was no response, but he heard hurried, messy footsteps and the groan of someone falling to the ground.
He followed the sound and saw a woman in purple falling to the ground.
There was a long feather arrow stuck in her chest, and her face was as pale as paper.
After a moment of surprise, he stepped forward and prepared to help the man up.
The other party was like a frightened deer, took out a dagger from his sleeve and waved it at him wildly.
Wen Zhiyan hurriedly explained that he was just out looking for the farmer's son and happened to meet her.
The girl in purple finally calmed down, but she lost all her energy and was about to collapse again.
He stepped forward to support the person and wanted to take her to find the barefoot doctor in the village.
But the girl in purple said she was the doctor.
But there were assassins chasing her, and she couldn't find a safe place to treat her wounds.
Hearing this, Wen Zhiyan wanted to take her back to the farm where they were staying, but the girl in purple shook her head and refused.
She said that if she stayed with that farmer, the lives of the whole family might be in danger.
The situation was so serious that Wen Zhiyan didn't dare to take any risks. He had to find a cave and carry the person in.
Why should I hug her? Because the girl in purple’s ankle has swollen like a bun.
If I continue to walk with such force, my legs will probably be broken.
She also said that after the assassins killed her servants, they had already followed her through the peach forest.
In this case, naturally, I didn't dare let her walk slowly anymore.
He hid the people in front of the cave and erased all traces as he walked, so the assassins did not come looking for them.
And the girl in purple was indeed a doctor as she said.
He watched her pull out the arrow from her chest with his own eyes, and she almost fainted from the pain.
But she gritted her teeth, skillfully cleaned her wound with a red-hot dagger, and sprinkled medicine powder on it.
However, when she tore off the hem of her skirt to bandage it, she was really unable to do it herself.
Wen Zhiyan offered to help, but she was embarrassed on her pale face and firmly refused.
But her strength was no match for a grown man like him.
Wen Zhiyan bandaged the wound on her chest with force, took off her shoes and socks, and straightened her foot bones.
After he did all this, the girl in purple was so angry that she ignored her.
He asked her where she was going, what her next steps were, and what he could do to help her.
The girl in purple hesitated for a long time, took off a jade pendant hanging around her neck, and wrote something on the white silk handkerchief with charcoal.
She asked him to help her hand the things to the doctor at the nearest post station and someone would come to pick her up.
Wen Zhiyan was not very confident about leaving a girl alone in the cave.
But the girl in purple insisted, so he could only disguise himself at the entrance of the cave and then hurried back to the farmer's house.
The farmer's boy had already returned home. He and his friends didn't catch any fish, so they went to the mountains to catch rabbits, so they came home late.
After Wen Zhiyan briefly explained the situation to his father, he cut the reins connecting his carriage to the horses and took the horses away.
In Dayan State, there was an inn every thirty miles on the official road.
Their village was only twelve miles away from the nearest post station.
In less than three quarters of an hour, he personally handed the jade pendant and white handkerchief to the doctor of the post station.
After reading the words on the handkerchief, the other party's face changed drastically. He hurriedly wrote a letter and handed it to a subordinate, and whispered something to the other party.
Then the doctor from the Jiabu Department brought more than twenty postmen and hurried to the cave with Wen Zhiyan to take the girl in purple away.
Before leaving, the girl in purple hesitated for a moment and gave the jade pendant to Wen Zhiyan as a thank you gift.
And then, naturally, nothing happened.
Wen Zhiyan guessed that the identity of the girl in purple was not simple.
Originally, he didn't take this matter to heart.
However, when A Niang was looking for a girl for him again, the purple figure appeared in his mind.
None of the women she met was as brave or strong as her, and their eyes were not as beautiful as hers.
Thus, an idea came into his mind.
If I must marry, marrying the girl in purple seems like a good choice.
After having this thought, he remembered that he didn't know the girl's name or who she belonged to.
After hesitating, Wen Zhiyan went to the post station again.
He wanted to find the doctor from the imperial carriage who had gone with him to pick up the girl in purple.
But I learned that the other party was promoted and transferred to another place.
No one knows where it is.
In this way, there is no way to find out the whereabouts of the girl.
——
Wen Li'er was so upset when she heard this.
My dear brother.
You like the girl, but you realize it too late.
You don’t even know where she comes from or what her name is, what are you thinking about?
Wen Li'er couldn't help but swear.
More than a year has passed, and according to my brother's description, the girl in purple has reached marriageable age.
Where can I find this?
Even if we find her in the end, she would probably already be a mother of two children...
Wen Li'er took a deep breath.
I couldn't believe it, the sister-in-law she cooked actually flew away...
