Ling Jiheng helped guard outside at first, and when Chi Xingyue had almost changed, he turned over and got on the ox cart.
He wrapped the quilt around her and asked, "Are you cold?"
Chi Xingyue nodded and handed the hot water bottle in his arms forward.
Ling Jiheng didn't answer and changed his pants, shoes and socks.
As I got closer, I heard Chi Xingyue muttering, "So I have a secret weapon, I'm not afraid of the cold.
If it were an ordinary girl, she would definitely get menstrual cramps after torturing herself like this in the snow."
Ling Jiheng paused, feeling that Chi Xingyue had paid a heavy price this time.
After putting on his clothes, he held the person in his arms without saying anything.
It’s not that I’m not grateful, but the gratitude expressed in words is too light.
He couldn't think of how to express his love for her for a moment.
Chi Xingyue reached out and replaced the water in the teapot with spiritual spring water, added some ginger slices, red dates, and brown sugar, and put it on the small stove.
He wiped his hands with a towel, took out a portion of walnut cake from the space, and shared it with Ling Jiheng.
Only after everyone had changed their clothes and the chicken soup on the fire had boiled did everyone get out of the car and each person took a bowl back to the car.
The chicken soup is delicious, but not very filling.
Especially for those who have been hungry for two days and are extremely exhausted, it is just like filling their teeth.
There are other foods in the carriage, but the most important thing right now is to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.
The snow at the bottom of the cliff was already thick, and it had been snowing for several hours. If we didn't leave now, we would be unable to leave.
Take out the frozen hard cakes and steamed buns from the secret compartment and toast them over the fire. When they are softened, you can eat them.
He ate five or six of them at once, and used up all the food in the car before he could barely suppress the hunger in his stomach.
Ling Jiheng got off the car and fed the old cow water and grass.
The water is the spiritual spring water from the space, and the fodder is bean straw brought from home.
The old cow mooed, as if it was also very hungry.
Only after they finished eating and rested for a while did Ling Jiheng call everyone to set off together.
The way down the mountain is difficult to walk on, and the way up the mountain is no less difficult.
Especially on snowy mountain roads.
Ling Jiheng, Ling Jiyi, and Ling Yi and others all got down to push the cart.
Only Chi Xingyue, Doctor Cheng, and the two injured people remained in the car without moving.
Huff huff, huff huff.
The few of them were very strong, and the old ox had a stable chassis, so it took an hour for the ox cart to get on the official road.
But their shoes and socks were wet again.
I parked the car on the side of the road, got in the car to change clothes, and then drove to the nearest county town.
Finally, before dark, we found an inn to stay in.
Ling Jiheng generously requested a few upper rooms and asked the waiter to prepare hot water and meals.
The conditions here are not as good as those in Yunrou County. Hot water is charged extra and the food is not very varied.
Ling Jiheng didn't care, as long as he could eat his fill and get a good night's sleep.
After settling everyone down, he and Chi Xingyue entered the space.
I took off my thick cotton jacket and went to the bathroom to take a good shower.
Then go to the cafeteria to have a private meal, and finally go to the household registration department to check Ji Ke's information.
"He didn't lie." Chi Xingyue concluded.
Pointing to a message above: "He went to the bottom of the cliff to join the army!"
Ling Jiheng also found it incredible, but was grateful that the other party happened to be there.
The two returned to the office and slept on a small bed of 1.2 meters.
It only took two seconds for me to fall asleep and I didn't wake up until the next morning.
Perhaps because they were all nervous during this period, Ling Yi, Ling San, Doctor Cheng, and Ling Jiyi all slept in.
Only Ling Wu, who was assigned to keep watch at night, got up at dawn to buy them breakfast and clothes.
And prepare food and other things for the old cow.
It was already mid-morning when Ling Jiheng came out of the house.
The sky wasn't snowing anymore, it was just gloomy.
The snow on the ground was not frozen solid, and it was inconvenient to travel, so the few of them just stayed there.
This stay lasted until mid-December. Seeing that the ground was frozen solid and the sky had cleared up, Ling Jiheng packed his luggage and prepared to go home.
After a period of rest, Ji Ke's injuries healed.
Ling Jiren was almost recovered and could move around, but he was not very agile.
When I heard that I was going home, I was so excited.
He was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. After getting on the ox cart, he kept introducing his family to Ji Ke.
Ji Ke was a little reserved, afraid that the Ling family would dislike him.
Ling Jiren said, "Don't worry. My father, mother, grandparents, second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, and third aunt are all doing well."
Ling Jiyi wanted to talk about Gu Youlian again, but his brother was in a good mood and he didn't want to disturb him.
Alas, another day that ends in vain.
The return journey went smoothly and the car arrived at Qingshan Village on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month.
The moment Ling Jiren got off the car, everyone in the village was shocked.
They all thought that Geng Suhua was crying so miserably because something happened to the eldest grandson of the Ling family.
Who would have thought that the man would come back alive with all his hands and feet intact.
The old lady didn't expect that her eldest grandson was really found by her second grandson. She looked him up and down and her eyes were a little red.
Geng Suhua couldn't stop crying.
She cursed Zhou Jiajun for not looking for her son carefully, which made her think her son was gone and she almost followed him.
Ling Weiyuan patted his shoulder: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Ling Jiren glanced at Wan Chunqin who was standing in the corner, wiping her tears secretly, and felt that something was wrong.
It was not until I was surrounded and escorted back to the house that I realized someone was missing.
"Mother, where is Lian?"
No matter how twisted you are, you should come out and greet him now!
Geng Suhua stopped crying, and even the others' bodies stiffened for a moment.
Ling Jiheng asked someone to take Ji Ke downstairs to wash up. Only when there were no outsiders around did the old lady tell him about Gu Youlian's affair.
"It was me who made the decision for your parents to divorce her. If you want to blame someone, blame me, the old lady!"
Ling Jiren was stunned for a long time. Upon hearing this, he quickly replied, "How can I blame my grandmother? It's her, she, who has no self-control!"
Ling Jiren never thought that he would lose his wife just to join the army.
Some are sad, some are lost, but more of it is disbelief.
Is it that the Ling family treats her badly? Is it that I am not indulgent enough to her? Is it that the child is not obedient enough?
Why did she betray herself and the Ling family?
Could the people from the Gu and Ma families really treat her well?
"So, is she doing well now?"
Geng Suhua and the old lady looked at each other and finally chose to tell the truth.
"The day I learned of your 'death', Gu Youlian was so emotional that she almost had a miscarriage.
After signing the divorce agreement, your father personally sent her back to the Ma family and gave her medicine and money.
But the leeches from the Ma family approached Gu Youlian just to suck blood from her.
The money was spent on buying food, but nothing was given to her to eat.
I just boiled two doses of medicine and fed them to the patient, but they didn't work, so I just ignored them.
Youlian only stayed there for seven days before she died.
They even came to the house to make trouble, and Erzhu Yinbao beat them out.
After the Gu family learned of Youlian's death, they also made a fuss.
After seeing the contents of the divorce letter, he went to settle the score with the Ma family.
I don’t know how it was resolved later.”
Ling Jiren nodded with a lost look on his face: "Alright, let's do this!"
