Exile opening: I won with the Universal Maker

Chapter 21 Struggling
When Shen Yuexi saw the official messenger, she became nervous for no reason.

As soon as she saw the official, she subconsciously wanted to run away.

The officer passed by her, and she was tense all over, not daring to breathe.

Turning his face away, he walked quickly to the mule cart not far away.He heard a yamen servant behind him say:

"Just post it here."

Her eyebrows twitched, her feet stopped, she stopped in place, and turned around to look.

One yamen servant took a brush and applied a layer of paste on the wall, while the other yamen servant unfolded the rolled-up notice in his hand and glued it to it.

And Feng Zhang happened to be standing next to the two yamen servants, and his curious eyes were cast on the notice.

On the notice, Xiao Zhuo's portrait is clearly displayed.

Shen Yuexi suddenly felt icy cold all over her body. It was obviously a hot summer day, but she seemed to have entered an ice cave, and her legs trembled uncontrollably.

She wanted to open her mouth to stop Feng Zhang, but she just opened her mouth without making any sound.

Only then did she notice that Feng Zhang's body with his back to her was obviously stunned, as if he was suddenly frozen in place.

Feng Zhang must have found out, he must have recognized the person in the portrait as Xiao Zhuo.

Shen Yuexi's mind was in a state of confusion, and the notice said that if information on fugitives was provided, once confirmed, a reward of one hundred taels of silver would be given.That's 100 taels of silver, and she didn't sell that much for two tiger skins. Wouldn't Feng Zhang be tempted?
The Feng family was originally poor, and 100 taels of silver was very attractive to such a poor family.

Now she can't stop Feng Zhang at all, two yamen servants are standing in front of Feng Zhang, she stares at Feng Zhang closely, waiting for his answer, maybe it's a trial of death, maybe it's a bright future.

A yamen servant saw that Feng Zhang was in a daze, so he walked over quickly, looked him up and down, stretched out his hand in front of him, and asked:

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Yuexi clenched her fists tightly, looked at Feng Zhang with her eyes motionless, with a rare solemnity on her face.

As long as Feng Zhang opened his mouth and said that he knew this person, and that this person was in Daliang Village, everything would be over.It's too late for her and Xiao Zhuo to run away, no, maybe Xiao Zhuo can run away earlier, but she definitely can't run away, as for whether Xiao Zhuo will turn around to save her, that's God knows.

Feng Zhang didn't speak, and was still standing there in a daze.

The yamen servant who asked the question was obviously impatient, and stretched out his hand to push Feng Zhang: "Why have you been standing here in a daze, do you know the person above?"

Feng Zhang seemed to be awakened by the servant's words suddenly, and turned to look at the servant.

Shen Yuexi supported the protruding crossbar of the carriage with both hands, and made a gesture of fleeing. As long as Feng Zhang dared to confirm, she would run away immediately. As for where to run, of course it was the village.

"No... Guanye, no," Feng Zhang's dark complexion turned red, he touched the back of his head and said, "This bandit is quite handsome, I have never seen it before in the country, and I was taken aback for a while."

To Shen Yuexi, Feng Zhang's words were like the sounds of nature.

She raised her head, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, this Feng Zhang, she and Xiao Zhuo did not save it in vain.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly slid down the carriage.

At this time, her face was covered with sweat, which slid down her cheeks, and the sweat on her back had already soaked through her clothes.

Still, she was in such a happy mood.

The yamen servant shouted to Feng Zhang angrily: "Since you haven't seen it, you should do whatever you want and don't just hang around here."

After finishing speaking, the two yamen servants walked away along the street.

Feng Zhang walked quickly to the mule cart and untied the rope.Stretching out an arm, he said to Shen Yuexi: "Miss Pei, get up quickly, we still have to ask the doctor to see your husband."

Shen Yuexi looked up at Feng Zhang, and saw that his forehead was densely covered with beads of sweat, obviously also frightened by the scene just now.

The time between the yamen servant posting the notice and Feng Zhang's return was extremely short, but it was so long for the two of them.

She waved her hand and stood up by herself holding the door frame. When she calmed down, she didn't get in the car, but walked forward side by side with Feng Zhang.

Walking to a place with few pedestrians, Feng Zhang turned to look at her, and said calmly:
"Miss Pei, my life, Feng Zhang, was saved by your husband and wife. No matter who your husband is, he is my benefactor. I, Feng Zhang, will never do anything to betray my life-saving benefactor. What I saw today, I take it for granted. I don't know."

Shen Yuexi was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect him to say that, and then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

But she still had to explain something, she looked around twice, saw that there was no one around, and then said in a low voice: "Brother Feng, my husband is not a bandit, he was wronged..."

"I know it all," Feng Zhang raised his sleeve and wiped his forehead, and he returned to his usual honesty, "My life was saved by your husband and wife, and besides, I have also seen bandits, just by watching Mr. Pei's words and demeanor, It is impossible to get involved with bandits."

Shen Yuexi understood.

Although Feng Zhang is rough and honest, he is not stupid.Even he could tell that Xiao Zhuo was not a bandit.

"Besides, you gave me 20 taels of the tiger skin you sold today. It's enough for me and my mother to spend a year or two. My mother has always taught me that to be a human being is to be grateful."

Shen Yuexi raised her eyebrows and looked at him, wanting to raise her hand to pat him on the shoulder, but she didn't come down.Realizing that this is ancient times and men and women are different, they put down their hands again.

The corners of her mouth curled up, looking at the scorching sky, the birds were chirping, and she suddenly felt that this hot day was extraordinarily refreshing.

Feng Zhang didn't distinguish between high and low status, he only judged right and wrong, and he didn't give the 20 taels of silver to the wrong person.

But even so, her and Xiao Zhuo's true identities cannot be known to outsiders. For Feng Zhang, the more he knows, the less safe he is.After all, their enemy is the emperor who is aloof.

The two of them came all the way to the south of the city. The house that the pharmacy clerk pointed to was not that big, and it looked like an ordinary house.An ox cart was parked at the gate of the house, and an eight or nine-year-old boy was sitting on it, making a cage for crickets out of willow branches.

Shen Yuexi walked up to the little boy and asked, "Little brother, does this car belong to Doctor Hua?"

The little boy said without raising his head, "You're looking for grandpa to see a doctor again, right? Wait at the door, grandpa will come out soon. Don't bother me making the cage."

Shen Yuexi saw that he was serious about weaving, so she stood in a cool place aside, lifted the fence, and looked at the gate of the house.

Not long after, the gate of the house opened, and a woman as fat as a bucket went out with a hale and gray old man carrying a medicine box.

The fat woman said to the old man: "Doctor Hua, I have to go back to take care of my husband, so I won't be far away."

The old man looked up at Shen Yuexi, and said: "No need to send, no need to send, I have patients here who need to be treated."

After the woman closed the door, Shen Yuexi hurriedly walked up to the old man and gave a salute.Before he could speak, Doctor Hua asked, "Don't be too polite, just tell me where the patient is, and I'll go there right away."

Feng Zhang asked curiously: "Doctor, how do you know that we are here to find you?"

Dr. Hua stroked his beard and said with a smile: "For a doctor, look, hear, and ask everything, hope is the first. I saw this girl staring at me eagerly, so she came to see me. You came here specially to wait for me. See the patient's condition. Is it more serious?"

Shen Yuexi found out that she and this doctor Hua are also people who have fun, without her, it would be more lip service.

"My husband encountered bandits and was shot in the back with an arrow. It has been a few days."

Doctor Hua nodded and walked towards the cart, asking as he walked, "How is his diet and daily life? Does he have a fever? Is there pus and blood in the wound?"

Shen Yuexi told Doctor Hua everything about Xiao Zhuo's situation.

Dr. Hua nodded and said, "Since we're in Daliang Village, let's start now. Baby, come and drive the ox cart for grandpa. Twenty miles away, let's eat there at noon."

The old man left as soon as he said it, and he was so happy that he didn't even mention the medical expenses.

Reluctantly, Xiaotong put down the half-made cricket cage, and said, "Next time, I will let my elder brother and the others drive for you. He runs here and there every day. How can my father be so leisurely?"

Feng Zhang asked, "How many older brothers do you have?"

"Two, the two who are working at the counter of the pharmacy, my elder brother and my second elder brother." Xiao Tong helped Doctor Hua into the bullock cart, and then sat in the driver's seat.

"Then what about your father, why don't you see him?" Shen Yuexi was also a little curious, why the child's father didn't do anything.

"My father doesn't go anywhere, he's just a lazy person," Xiaotong said with a chuckle, "it's not like grandpa, so grandpa let him sit in the clinic in Baohetang to dawdle."

Shen Yuexi and Feng Zhang looked at each other.

It turns out that the arrogant guy in Baohetang is actually the son of Doctor Hua...

But those are trivial matters, the most important thing is finally invited a doctor who can treat Xiao Zhuo's injury.

A stone in Shen Yuexi's heart fell to the ground.
