Pingcheng.

It is getting late and the snow is still flying.

When the guards escorted the fifth sister-in-law and the seventh sister-in-law back to Pingcheng, they happened to meet the deputy general who was escorting the fifth young master Bai Jing.

The lieutenant general did not recognize them as the fifth sister-in-law and the seventh sister-in-law, but he recognized that they were the female relatives of the Bai family, so he said: "Two madams, Miss Bai has found the fifth young master, but the fifth young master is weak and is currently resting in the house...

"

Before the deputy general finished speaking, the fifth sister-in-law rushed out in one stride.

Yu Jiao saluted seriously to the deputy general: "Thank you, general."

She didn't ask if she only found Fifth Brother.

Because she didn't want to seize the illusory possibility, and in the end, if her wish failed, she might not have the courage to face it again.

Fifth sister-in-law Cui rushed all the way to the door, where the Bai family was already gathered.

Everyone was crying and looked worriedly at the person on the bed.

Thinking that the deceased person was still alive in front of her eyes, Ms. Cui was stunned. She couldn't help but cover her lips with her hands, and her tears fell down.

"Husband! Ah Jing..."

Mrs. Cui ignored it and ran towards Bai Jing holding up her skirt.

Her pace was fast at first, then gradually slowed down.

In a short distance, she walked away from the feeling of being out of reach.

It's as if I'm worried that if I walk too fast, I'll find out it's just a phantom in the end, or I'm worried that if I walk too slow, my husband will disappear.

After confirming that the already emaciated man was the young man who made her cry heartbrokenly, the fifth sister-in-law couldn't bear it any longer and cried out: "Husband..."

The tears were so urgent that they blocked her vision.

The mixture of sorrow and joy left her speechless.

She just choked with sobs, staring at her Ah Jing, walking closer step by step, and then regardless, she picked up her skirt and ran away again.

She never knew she could run so fast.

When she came to Bai Jing's bed, her face was already flushed from running, but what was redder than that face were her eyes filled with tears.

"Husband..." Ms. Cui stretched out her hand tremblingly, but she didn't know how to start.

The man in front of him had an unshaven beard, unkempt hair, and a skinny figure. The skin on his hands was also ulcerated, like a rotten corpse that had just been fished out of the water.

Ms. Cui's eyes were stung, and tears welled up.

She summoned up great courage and slowly opened the quilt.

When she saw Bai Jing's disfigured feet, she couldn't bear it anymore. She trembled her lips and asked in a hoarse voice over and over again: "Why is it like this? Why is it like this..."

The confused expression was really asking her husband why he was like this, but those tearful eyes were actually feeling sorry for her husband.

How did it become like this?

She remembered that her husband, although not as gentle and handsome as her uncle, was still a handsome young man.

It was a beautiful time of spring at that time.

Willows are hanging over the embankment, and green grass is growing beside the river.

The young man galloped on his horse, arrogant and arrogant, as if he didn't know the hardships and hardships in the world, and was confident that he could overcome the thorns with a single sword.

So high-spirited and high-spirited.

With just this glance, she had no way out, and she shamelessly created various chance encounters with this handsome young man.

Until her shadow fell in the young man's eyes.

The red candle vomited tears and was turned into a red wave.

They got married naturally and spent the best two years of their lives.

But where does the person lying on the bed still have the charm of the past?

What exactly had he gone through to torture a young man as bright as a jade pearl into such an inhuman appearance?

Ms. Cui burst into tears and carefully stroked Bai Jing's scarred face, her voice hoarse: "Does it hurt..."

Does it hurt?

Is she stupid?

How come it doesn't hurt?

Mrs. Cui fell on the bed and cried loudly: "Husband... Ah Jing... God, if possible, let me bear it for him!"

Her husband is still alive, she should be happy.

However, my heart still hurts so much, like a knife stabbing me. It's really unbearable.

Bai Xiuying and Bai Jing share the same mother, and they feel no better than Cui, but seeing Fifth Sister-in-law so sad, she still drags her body covered with scars and bends down to help Cui: "Sister-in-law, don't cry, it's a good thing that Fifth Brother is alive."

Although I say this, how can I say that the feeling of being cut by a knife is gone?

With the eldest brother Zhuyu in front and the seventh brother jumping behind, the fifth brother has never been the most outstanding man in the Bai family, but Bai Xiuying knows that the fifth brother has a lively mind and has his own beliefs and ideals.

At that time, the fifth brother was also a young man with a white horse and light fur coat. He was as good as a jade. There were few better people in the world than him, right?

It's so embarrassing to look like this now.

Sister-in-law Wu stubbornly leaned beside the bed and refused to move away.

She couldn't bear to look at her wrongly, because she was afraid that her husband would be gone if she looked at him wrongly.

The second sister-in-law, Ren, also came to help her: "Fifth brother, the doctor said that the fifth brother's life is not in danger. He is fine. He just needs to rest for a while. Don't worry..."

"At least the fifth brother is still alive..." Mrs. Ren burst into tears.

At least the fifth brother is still alive, but her husband, her A-Zhang, has become a cold corpse.

Ms. Cui burst into tears: "Second sister-in-law, sixth sister, please leave me alone and let me accompany Ah Jing well. I want to accompany him well. I will never allow him to leave my side again. Never again..."

Mrs. Ren earnestly advised: "Fifth brother and sister, the ground is cold and your health is important."

Mrs. Cui seemed not to have heard anything, and was still lying on the edge of the bed, looking at her husband who was no longer in human form, crying over and over again.

"Susu?"

After a while, Bai Jing woke up.

The inhuman torture in the mine had already made Bai Jing almost lose his mind. When the hole was first unlocked, he was so dizzy again.

His reaction was much slower. He raised his head blankly and looked at the tearful woman lying next to him. His eyes were full of surprise: "Why is Susu here?"

His voice was so weak.

These words seemed to go around in his mouth for a long time before they came out.

Like a fatherless bird, he looked around blankly, and finally focused on Bai Xiuying: "Is it Sixth Sister? What's wrong with you? Why is there a bandage on your body? Where am I?"

Xiao Chuanyi hid behind Cheng Bi. He knew that if his fifth uncle saw him here, he might understand everything.

He hid very well and did not let himself be discovered. He only peeked at his fifth uncle from time to time.

Everyone was at a loss for words and didn't know how to answer.

Mrs. Cui choked with tears: "This is Pingcheng. We couldn't worry about the men who were going to fight, so we came here."

"Look at you, there's nothing good about you. Didn't you promise me that you would take good care of yourself?"

Bai Jing's mind seemed to be spinning very slowly, and he needed time to digest the information.

After a long time, he stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from the corner of his wife's eyes, but he scolded: "Nonsense! It's so dangerous here, what are you doing here?! Where is the uncle? Why didn't he send you back?"

Then, he looked at Bai Xiuying again: "You are still so naughty. Look at your injuries. Did you fall while riding a horse, or what happened?"

Bai Xiuying turned her head and wiped her tears. Seeing the fifth brother's eyes falling on the seventh sister-in-law, she tried her best to keep calm and found a lame excuse: "I fell off the horse. The seventh sister-in-law also injured herself in order to save me."

.”

Bai Jing scolded: "You know how to get into trouble, have you ever thanked your seventh sister-in-law?"

Bai Xiuying nodded with tears in her eyes: "Well, Sixth Sister thanked me properly and apologized to everyone."

Bai Jing didn't speak anymore, and seemed to be still trying to regain her consciousness.

He was still so weak, so weak that he felt tired even after speaking a few words.

Seeing that he didn't pursue the matter, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, no one could bear to let this bruised man know the truth, so they all hid it with a tacit understanding.

Even if I can't hide it, I should at least wait until he gets better.

Otherwise, how could he accept this cruel truth?

The guard brought boiled medicine and a bowl of thick millet porridge.

Mrs. Cui quickly picked up the porridge bowl, blew away the heat carefully, took a mouthful and handed it over: "Husband, eat something first."

Bai Jing had already swallowed her saliva when she smelled the fragrance.

But he didn't gobble it up. He opened his mouth obediently and accepted his wife's feeding.

His eyes never left Cui's side. Although he didn't say it, he must have missed his wife very much.

So much so that after enduring those dark days, while eating the porridge handed to him by his wife, there was a smile on his eyes and brows.

No matter how terrible things I have experienced, now my wife is here, my family is here, and there is hot porridge and a hot bed.

He is not a weak person, he knows that those sufferings are not worth mentioning, the happiness in front of him is precious, and he should not worry his relatives.
