Gong Fujiao Daughter-in-law

Chapter 46
Hearing this, Xie Zhiyun felt sympathy for Wei Ningshu.

She frowned slightly: "A two-year-old child shouldn't have so many memories. I remember that your mother was Wei Shi who married you when you were five years old. At that time, the eldest sister should be raised by her, right?"

Wei Ji nodded.

He never looked back from the window, the flickering lights cast shadows on his face.

Wei Ji's voice was low, but there was an indescribable softness.

"Although the two-year-old has no memory, her body will tell her to protect herself."

"At that time, my mother had just married into the family, and the elder sister admitted to giving birth again. It took a long time for the elder sister to open her heart. The only luck was that the mother was pregnant at the time. Seeing how gentle the mother was to the newborn brother, the elder sister finally Accept mother."

When Wei Ji talked about his youth, he only talked about Wei Ningshu, never about his past.

Xie Zhijun listened quietly, and sighed: "Because of this, the eldest sister doesn't want to marry?"

Hearing this sentence, Wei Ji turned his head and looked at Xie Zhiyun seriously.

His eyes are deep, with flickering light in his pupils, which is quite intriguing.

Xie Zhiyun didn't know what he was thinking, but he could hear his words clearly.

"That's not the case. The eldest sister actually had a fiancé once."

"What?" Xie Zhiyun was very surprised.

Thinking of Wei Ningshu, Wei Ji couldn't help but sigh.

He is seldom depressed, but for this younger sister, he will worry about her.

"My eldest sister is very afraid of strangers, but she is not afraid of Chen Qing and her two sons who have been with her since she was a child. They are two childhood sweethearts, and Chen Youzhi is a gentle and handsome young man. When Fang was sixteen, the two families also made an engagement..."

Xie Zhiyun's complexion changed slightly, and his heart also felt uncomfortable.

Wei Cang left Taixing in his early years and followed Chen Qing from Yezhou. Chen Qing was the shepherd of Yezhou at that time, and Wei Cang was just a soldier beside him.

This experience can be called a legend.

Later, Wei Cang followed Chen Qing from birth to death for more than ten years, and saved his life many times. He was promoted from the captain of the personal guard all the way, and finally became the defender of Yezhou City, holding most of Chen Qing's army in his hands.

However, just four years ago, Daqi attacked, and Chen Qing led the army to the battlefield. At that time, Wei Cang and Wei Ji went to Yandang Mountain to suppress bandits, and Yezhou City was half empty.

At this moment, the former Wucao Ministry of Taiji Mountain was eyeing Yezhou, which no one dared to provoke, and secretly attacked, trying to capture this rich Yezhou.

As long as they can take Yezhou and occupy this city, they will no longer have to live a hard life in Taiji Mountain.

There were ten thousand bandits in this group, and they were all desperate and cruel murderers. Many of them were defeated by Chen Qing or Wei Cang, and they hated them to the bone.

Those ten thousand people went straight to Yezhou all the way, taking advantage of the two shifts changing at night, they fought desperately and entered Yezhou.

Thanks to the well-trained elite soldiers in Yezhou, they quickly organized troops to resist.

But desperate people are irrational.

They burned, killed and looted all the way, the city cried loudly, Chen's army resisted desperately, but at that time there were only 8000 guards in the city, and they had to disperse the guards around the gates, so there was not enough resistance troops that could be mobilized.

In the end, these people killed in front of the Yezhou Mufu.

Fortunately, the members of the Wei family followed Cui Ji back to their mother's house in those few days. Only the second wife and Mrs. Li stayed in the Wei mansion. The second wife was quite decisive, and when she heard the movement, she called the soldiers to close the gate, and she couldn't get out. .

And Yezhou Mufu suffered disaster.

At that time, Chen Qing's eldest son and second son Chen Youzhi took up their long swords and fought their way out of the State Shepherd's Mansion, saving the female relatives in the mansion with their own lives.

The men of the Chen family will die on the battlefield even if they die.

When Chen Qing hurried back, only the corpses of his two sons and the devastated Yezhou were left.

That night Chen Qing went crazy, and because of his grief, he didn't pay attention to the long sword stabbing behind him, so he died together with his two sons.

When Wei Cang and Wei Ji rushed back, everything was over.

Wei Cang lost his best friend, lost the coach of Yezhou, and Wei Ningshu lost the boy who grew up with him.

Wei Ji's voice was full of sorrow: "Big sister was desperate to marry Youzhi's memorial tablet, to be a widow, but it was Uncle Chen's wife who stopped her with a word."

"Boniang Li said at the time that all the Chen family members died in battle and made great achievements. They died for the people of Yezhou, and there is no need to add another living memorial archway."

"The Chen family only wants living people, not the memorial archway. Now that there are no living people, only she is left as an old woman. What's the use of asking for the memorial archway?"

Xie Zhiyun was shocked physically and mentally.

She only experienced one war when she was young, which was the Shangyuan Lantern Festival 13 years ago, but all her memories of that day were lost, and she couldn't remember it at all.

Later, Langhuan also had a crisis, perhaps because of the blessings of the stars, the Xie family has never suffered, and Xie Zhiyun has never seen the cruelty of war with her own eyes.

But just now, Wei Ji just said a few words, and Xie Zhiyun clearly smelled blood.

It was engraved in the history books, just a few descriptions.

But countless human lives, blood and tears piled up into suffering.

Xie Zhiyun only felt that her heart was heavy, that there was a big stone firmly pressing on her heart, almost making her breathless.

Wei Ningshu's past was piled up in so much suffering, she couldn't get rid of it, couldn't break free, those past pains, those people who left, locked her in the past forever.

Xie Zhijun sighed: "I see."

She didn't hear it herself, her voice was already a little choked.

"I will tell my mother well, she is so gentle, she will definitely know what my sister is thinking."

Wei Ji turned his head to look at her, but only saw her side face with eyes half downcast.

Her face is small, but the palm is big, and her chin is slender and gentle, sliding across a beautiful arc.

When looking at her like this, he could feel the tenderness on her body, but under this tenderness, Wei Ji could feel a little bit of depression.

It was the past he said just now that made her sad.

She has never been a cold person. She occasionally speaks cold words, but her heart is softer than anyone else.

"Thanks a lot."

Wei Ji paused, and said, "Thank you too."

Xie Zhiyun paused in her heart, she raised her head and looked at Wei Ji in surprise.

Only now did Wei Ji see that her eyes were already flushed, but she held back her tears.

Wei Ji stretched out his hand, and before she recovered, he lightly touched her eyes.

His fingertips were rough, with layers of calluses, rubbing against her immature face, and even made a rustling sound.

Xie Zhiyun frowned slightly, raised his head back, and reached out to knock off his arm.

"What to do? Don't use your hands."

With this movement, Xie Zhiyun turned his head away, not letting her see his red eyes.

"There's nothing wrong with not getting married," Xie Zhiyun paused, "I'm the elder sister-in-law, I can make the decision, and I will raise her in the future."
