Chapter 93 Little Lady

Following the rules, Lu Xun turned around and bowed to Jiang Chengjia first, "See your wife, your wife is healthy."

He lowered his head and knelt on the ground with his fists.

Jiang Chengjia raised his eyebrows, took a few steps back and said, "General Lu is polite."

Lu Xun then stood up and said, "The Lord is waiting outside. Madam, come with me." He walked forward with a few steps expressionlessly, stretched out his hand and greeted him.

Jiang Chengjia said nothing, nodded, and headed for the outsider of Linhe Inn.

When I arrived at the door, I saw that the director of the inn seemed to be receiving someone from Ning Nanyou.

Today, he changed into his favorite black-clothed python pattern Yunjin Quhe robe, covered with a light gray robe with bamboo forest pattern, and a small crown with a mysterious Yin carved leaves. This outfit made him look so full of energy. Jiang Chengjia's face showed some weirdness. Ning Nanyou only wore this garment twice in front of her, and later moved from Luoyang to Linhe. He had been wearing casual clothes and had never dressed up so carefully. Why is it so grand today?

She was puzzled and quietly moved forward. She was about to call him, but she heard a gentle and delicate voice coming from the front.

"How could Brother Zhao lose weight so much..." The low greeting was filled with concern, which made Jiang Chengjia, who was standing behind Ning Nanyou, suddenly stunned and became strange. So he moved a few steps to the right and looked over there, and saw a delicate little lady appearing at the door.

Jiang Chengjia was a little surprised.

This little lady looks younger than Ning Nanyou. She is about twenty years old, but for some reason she calls him Zhaodi. Her black hair is combed into a fallen horse, and she is obviously married to a woman. Her appearance is very beautiful, especially her eyes are outstanding, and she treats people as if she is robbed of love. She is very good in shape, and her plain-colored curly skirt cannot hide the maturity that is about to emerge, and adds a bit of different flavor to her. She holds a small and delicate hand in her hand, with golden silk as the edge, and is buckled with clusters of crabapple flowers, and is gently swaying.

She seemed to notice someone looking at her on the right side, so she immediately withdrew her gaze that had been staying on Ning Nanyou, turned around, and looked in the direction of Jiang Chengjia.

Looking at him, Jiang Chengjia was slightly lost.

The young woman asked softly, "Who is this?"

After a moment, Ning Nanyou's warm voice came to his ears, "This is my inner son."

Jiang Chengjia was stunned again and looked at Ning Nanyou with some surprise. He was always cold to her, but he treated her coldly today.

Then, the young woman lifted up her skirt slightly and bowed to her. Her eyes settled on her face, and she showed a kind smile: "It was my younger brother and sister. I heard it a month ago. It was spread throughout the city of Nanyang. The wife of the Marquis of Huaiyin had the appearance of Yu Rilihua. When I saw it today, it really made people fall in love with me, and even I was so happy."

Jiang Chengjia bowed slightly, returned the greeting, but did not speak. She was waiting for Ning Nanyou to introduce her to her, but she saw that he had not even looked at her, turned her head and talked to the woman again.

"Sister Jun is quite tired when walking. Why not take a break in the inn first? I will take you to the mansion with my mother later." Ning Nan was very gentle and treated this woman very gently, even better than her attitude towards her.

Jiang Chengjia felt a little unhappy, but she couldn't say anything.

The young woman smiled and nodded, "I was about to visit my aunt. Brother Zhao, please go with peace of mind, so my aunt and I wait in this mansion."

Ning Nanyou nodded, took the hand of Jiang Chengjia who was stunned and said softly, "Let's go?"

Jiang Chengjia woke up, looked up at him, and nodded silently. She held his hand gently, and when she passed by the young woman, she clearly felt a hint of hostility coming from the woman. She was surprised in her heart, turned her head and glanced at the young woman. Seeing her smiling kindly at her, she couldn't help but question whether she had hallucinations.

The young couple got on the carriage, and the servant drove forward. Lu Xun hurriedly said goodbye to the young woman before chasing her.

Ning Nanyou had just rested for a few days and refused to listen to Ji Xianzhi's advice. He insisted on going out at this time. The wound on his chest was tightly bandaged, and he couldn't stand the wind. But the sun was very strong, and he was not airtight. The inner collar inside was naturally wet with sweat. The salty sweat beads rolled into the wound, and a scorching pain came. He leaned on the long couch in the car in discomfort, and it was uncomfortable to sit no matter how he sat.

Jiang Chengjia vaguely guessed that he was hot, so he poked his head out of the window, asked for a fan from Qianshan, quietly moved it over, and fanned the wind for him.

Ning Nanyou was closing his eyes, suddenly he felt a cool breeze coming in front of him, so he opened his eyes, watching Jiang Chengjia leaning against the car window, leaning slightly towards him, swaying a fan to drive away the heat, but there was already a dripping sweat on his face, and his heart moved slightly, stretched out his sleeves to wipe the sweat beads from her forehead, which slid down from both sides of her cheeks, and said, "Does my head still hurt today?"

She shook her head and smiled softly, "Yesterday, Lord Jun came to see me. I don't know why I had a good sleep at night. After a sleep, it didn't hurt this morning."

Ning Nanyou paused and smiled, "It seems... it's all my fault for A Luotou's failure a few days ago."

Jiang Chengjia's face turned red and said softly, "Your Majesty is not serious."

He became happy with her slightly red cheeks. When he woke up in the morning, he easily swept away the irritability and breathed comfortably.

The carriage stopped one after another before long.

Until Lu Xun outside the car called out softly, "Lord, we're here."

They set off and came out from behind the curtain.

Ning Nan was very sad and was very careful when getting on and off the car. Ji Xianzhi personally put the stomp on his feet for him and slowly helped him walk down. Jiang Chengjia, who was following behind, also took care of him carefully.

After getting off the car, the group came to a quaint and dilapidated plain house. Jiang Chengjia looked at the surrounding environment. This house was placed on a pile of weeds and trees, and piles of stones were lying in front of the door of the house, blocking the desolate path that was stepped out by someone.

Several people walked slowly into the courtyard with their feet under their feet. They opened the door and creaked, and a heavy smell of blood came to their faces, which made Jiang Chengjia cover his nose.

Seeing this, Ning Nanyou gently pulled her and pulled her behind her.

Lu Xun walked in front. The yard was full of rotten wood, with dense weeds and flowers. He could only vaguely see a winding path under his feet, leading to the closed door opposite, and there was not even a screen wall in front of the yard.

The yard is so dilapidated that it adds a layer of gloom, not to mention the strong bloody atmosphere inside.

Lu Xun and Ji Xianzhi went to the house first. When Ning Nanyou led Jiang Chengjia to the dusty wooden door, they pushed open the old and decaying lattice door and shouted inside, "The lord and wife are here. The rest are retreating first."

Then he heard a serene sound from inside. Jiang Chengjia saw five or six figures crawling out of the large window in the house, and disappeared in a short while.

After the movement in the room stopped, Lu Xun put down his blocking hand.

Jiang Chengjia then followed Ning Nanyou into the house.

It was dark and gray, and with its strong blood, this room looked like a cell of a death row prisoner.

There were weeds piled up everywhere in the house, and a "squeak" sound was heard. Ning Nanyou's face suddenly changed, and his voice and expression trembled, "Uncle Ji."

Jiang Chengjia didn't react and turned his head to look at him, but saw that he had rushed outside the house at some point, his face pale.

Ji Xianzhi frowned as he heard the slight movement inside, glared at Lu Xun, "How did you do it? Didn't you say that... the lord can't see the round-haired animal?"

Lu Xun scratched his head, his strong body trembled slightly, and he said a little embarrassedly, "Before the lord came, I had ordered someone to clean it up... But maybe this is the suburb... so there are particularly many mice."

Ning Nanyou hid far away from the room again, feeling that his breathing was not smooth, so he waved his hand at Ji Xianzhi, "Uncle Ji accompanied Aluo, Lu Xun went outside with me."

Lu Xun was named, so he had to follow Ning Nanyou obediently.

Ji Xianzhi stayed in the house, worried about Ning Nanyou's situation and looked solemn.

Jiang Chengjia was a little confused and asked Ji Xianzhi, who was standing beside him, "June...are you afraid of round hair animals?"

No wonder he was so afraid of the rabbit in the forest before, and he was yelling to kill it because he was afraid?

Ji Xianzhi nodded and reached out to ask forward, "Junhou thought he couldn't get in anymore. So he asked the old slave to accompany his wife to the inner room to see General Shi An."

Seeing that he was talking about the topic, she nodded along and then took a step towards the room.

The two of them turned around and came to a partition full of torture instruments.

Jiang Chengjia walked carefully inside and found Shi An, who was dying in the dim corner, lying on a pile of straw and wrapped around his body.

"General Shi An, you are going to see your wife. The wife is here, but you are closing your eyes and turning a blind eye?" Ji Xianzhi broke his strange and silent identity and said mockingly at Shi An who was lying motionless inside.

The people on the straw heard the sound and twitched all over, as if they could not move.

After a while, he seemed to want to struggle to sit up, opened his dark eyes, and hid in the dark to look at Jiang Chengjia.

Jiang Chengjia stared at her eyes, without any fear on her face, and said calmly: "I heard from the Lord and Hou... General wants to see me?"

The man squirmed, opened his lips and said, "Thank you, Madam, for your condolences to come to see me in this sinister and terrifying place."

As soon as his voice came out, Jiang Chengjia was very surprised.

Shi An's voice was already hoarse, with a rustling sound in its dryness, so low that it almost made people unable to tell what he was saying.

"I don't have to thank me... If it weren't for the Lord, I wouldn't want to come to see you." Jiang Chengjia showed disgust and turned his head, not wanting to look at him.

Ji Xianzhi and the other side observed silently without saying a word.

Then Shi An said, "Can you please... take a step back? Let me say a few words to my wife?"
