"Let me do it."
Shen Zhixi took the towel from Yuanyang's hand, and Yuanyang was about to change the water. The basin he brought earlier was already stained red with blood.
“Tangshu.”
Shen Zhixi sat down in front of the bed and wiped the blood from Tang Zhou's back while resisting the discomfort in his stomach.
When she first rescued Tang Zhou, he was covered in blood. At that time, she wiped the blood off Tang Zhou's body with her own hands. At that time, she didn't feel sick at all.
This is enough to explain the problem, and...
And thinking about it carefully, her menstrual period this month has been almost half a month late.
Regarding the pregnancy, I was inseparable.
"Tang Zhou." She read his name again, lowered her head and looked at his profile seriously, "I will raise the child well, don't worry. When I go home, forget everything. I would rather you hate Me, don’t worry about me, because it’s useless even if you worry about me anymore, I will cut off everything and forget you completely.”
As she spoke, she reached out and gently stroked Tang Zhou's face with her fingertips.
"Thank you for shielding me, but I'm just an ungrateful bad woman. I even want to see how you regret showing your sincerity after knowing that you were tricked by me. Don't take it to heart, I just want to see you." I just made the same mistake you men often make, but at least I have one more advantage than you men, that is, I can take away the child, unlike you, who let a woman get pregnant with a child and then walk away. irresponsible."
She lowered her eyes and smiled, her smile bright.
Every time she said a word, her eyes would become colder, as if she had become a bad woman who deceived people's feelings. No matter how good Tang Zhou was to her, she had no special affection for her.
Although she said it was ruthless, in the end, she still stayed in front of the bed all night.
That night, she never left.
When he really couldn't hold it any longer, he would lie in front of the bed and squint for a while, but he would soon wake up secretly and pay attention to Tang Zhou's condition. He even forgot to wipe the blood on his face.
After dawn, Yuanyang came over and called her.
"Miss, you should sit here all night and rest for a while. Breakfast will be ready soon. After eating, I will go back to the city immediately to find the doctor."
Shen Zhixi nodded, but when he stood up, he almost fell down due to dizziness.
She took Yuanyang out and went to a place far away from the main house, and said carefully: "You have to call the doctor, and you have to ask Mother Cui to bring someone over. The bodies of the bandits over there have to be disposed of. I I also have something to discuss with Mother Cui.”
"Okay, I understand, miss."
"You should be more careful on the road. However, we haven't seen any other bandits after a night. It should be safe. But just in case, we still have to ask Mother Cui to send some people over. We will set up defenses in the past two days. This area is in case there are any more bandits at night."
Yuanyang nodded and took note, but his expression changed immediately.
"The lady said, these two days?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Shen Zhixi didn't understand what she meant.
Yuanyang curled his lips and asked hesitantly: "Just... just these two days, that is, after these two days, you won't need it anymore, right?"
Hearing this, Shen Zhixi turned away and did not respond for a long time.
She looked towards the main house and answered solemnly after a long time: "I have said before that as soon as it is confirmed that she is pregnant with the child, she will leave immediately. If she wants to keep Tang Zhou, she cannot let him continue to live in this place, lest his eyes get better." Find us by looking for the clue of the bamboo house."
"I understand." Yuanyang nodded slowly, with a slumped face.
Shen Zhixi couldn't see her look like that, frowned and turned away, as if looking at her twice more would mess up her mind.
After the meal, Yuanyang drove the carriage out.
Tang Zhou didn't wake up for a while. Fortunately, the injury on his back didn't get worse. After Shen Zhixi scrubbed it, he applied hemostatic medicine again. At the moment, he could only prevent him from bleeding, otherwise excessive blood loss would be fatal.
Otherwise, we can only wait for the doctor to deal with it.
Shen Zhixi sat in front of the bed, having barely slept all night, so he dozed off from time to time.
When Yuanyang came back with his men, Tang Zhou still didn't wake up.
Shen Zhixi gave up the room and asked the doctor to apply medicine and bandage to Tang Zhou before going out to find Cui's mother. Mother Cui pulled her and asked her over and over again about her recent reactions, asking her how many times a day she vomited, whether she had chest tightness, and whether she didn't want to eat anything she saw.
Cui's mother has given birth to children before and is more experienced than Shen Zhixi.
After hearing this, she slapped her thigh and said it was done, saying that the child was definitely here.
"If I really come, then I have to ask Mother Cui to find me a place to live as soon as possible in the past two days. I should say find a place for Tang Zhou. It should be far enough away from here that he can't find it again. But also It can’t be an uninhabited place, it’s better to be a small village with simple folk customs. After all, his eyes haven’t healed yet, and he’s... injured. If he’s alone, he’ll have to fend for himself.”
Shen Zhixi sighed heavily, her eyes lowered from beginning to end so that no one could see the emotion in her eyes.
"When the time comes, send him there late at night so that no one will see him. Leave some money for him. If they see the money, people in the village will be willing to take care of him."
"But what if someone has bad intentions and sees him blindly grabbing money but abandoning him?" Cui's mother asked.
"No." Shen Zhixi tugged his fingers and said with furrowed eyebrows: "He is good at martial arts, and ordinary people can't take advantage of him, unless..."
Unless he doesn't want the money himself.
After thinking about it, she continued: "But it doesn't matter. There are notices offering a reward of 10,000 taels of gold to find him everywhere. There will always be someone who can recognize him. Such a large amount of money is enough for ordinary people to live a lifetime of food and clothing. They will definitely Take him to the government to receive the reward. Even if there is no notice in the remote mountain village, we can quietly send the notice there..."
"But aren't you afraid that the people who seriously injured Tang Zhou will find him again?" Cui's mother asked again.
"No." Shen Zhixi sighed again as he spoke. The more he spoke, the more uncomfortable he felt. "If all the troubles had not been resolved, they would not have dared to issue such a big announcement to Tang Zhou. In that case, even if you want to search, you will only search quietly to avoid missing traces and letting Tang Zhou be found by bad guys, so..."
Seeing that Shen Zhixi looked gloomy and out of sorts, Cui's mother brushed the fine hair from her forehead and touched her face.
"Miss, think about the children who will be born in the future."
"Yes." After hearing the word "child", Shen Zhixi gained strength again. She raised her eyes and smiled at Cui's mother, "So, now I only need Cui's mother to help me find a safe place to live, and there is nothing else to do." .”
Over there, after the doctor finished treating Tang Zhou's injuries, he was led here by Yuanyang.
When feeling the pulse, Shen Zhixi was extremely nervous.
Finally, the doctor looked happy and congratulated: "Congratulations, madam, on your happiness."
