The young couple from the farm fights back

Chapter 116 Zhou Chunfeng recognizes his wife's handwriting

Zhou Chunfeng, who was sitting sideways at the table, put down the half-drunk medicine in his hand and raised his hand to signal.

Xiao Ce handed the prescription and the letter to him. Zhou Chunfeng looked lazy and unfolded the letter in front of him.

It wasn't until he recognized the handwriting on the letterhead that he was completely stunned.

The soldiers holding the white pigeons in their hands were waiting to be rewarded the moment before, but they inexplicably received the anger from Deputy General Zhou and felt a slight chill on their necks.

"Who told you to shoot the pigeon?"

Everyone:...

Boom~

The soldiers were so frightened that their legs went weak and they knelt down. "Please forgive me, Lieutenant General Zhou. I didn't know I couldn't shoot this pigeon."

The main thing is that no one told him that pigeons cannot be killed!

Seeing this, Xiao Ce seemed to have guessed something, "Could this letter be..." the lady who is proficient in medicine and is waiting for Lao Zhou in the countryside?

"Haha~" Zhou Chunfeng clenched the letter and prescription in his hands. It was the first time he laughed so happily since he left home.

The fog that had been weighing on my heart for days dissipated, and I felt a sense of relief in my laughter.

She's still alive, great! His wife is still alive.

"Could it be something?" Xiao Chao's head was full of question marks. He saw that Lao Zhou seemed to be possessed by a ghost, with tears in the corners of his eyes as he smiled.

Deputy General Hong was even more confused.

At this moment, Xiao Ce still had something he didn't understand. He raised his lips and laughed, raised his hand and patted Xiao Chao's shoulder: "This letter is probably written by my sister-in-law."

Xiao Chao: ...

"What? Lao Zhou's wife?" Is this true?

Deputy General Hong was even more confused after hearing this. Why would Zhou Chunfeng's wife release a carrier pigeon? What did it mean?

Xiao Ce was overjoyed: "Great, great, God is helping my rebel army. Quick, take the prescription written by my sister-in-law to the military doctor. Even if Yanzhou is a ruined city, I will turn it into treasure."

Deputy General Hong: "Yes, sir."

After Lieutenant General Hong responded, he saw that Zhou Chunfeng was still holding the prescription tightly. He felt that this man seemed to be grinning like an idiot, and wondered if he should ask him for it.

Zhou Chunfeng finally stopped laughing, handed the prescription to Deputy General Hong, stood up and bowed, saying, "I need to hurry back to Shili Village. I beg Master and Second Master to let me pass."

Xiao Ce knew Zhou Chunfeng's feelings. How could a man not think of his wife and children at home when he was fighting in the world? When Xiao Ce thought of his wife and children who had died unfortunately, the pain hidden in the corner of his heart was magnified.

However, deep down, he was happy for Lao Zhou: "It's time to go back and visit. Now that you're home, there's no reason not to see your wife and children. I heard that your sister-in-law was already pregnant when you joined the army. I'll give you two days, so go and come back quickly."

"Thank you, sir."

If the soldiers hadn't shot the pigeon, he could have contacted his wife through letters. But that didn't matter. The rebel army needed to rest in Yanzhou City for a few days. If he rode as fast as he could, he would be able to reach Shili Tun before noon tomorrow.

She has worked hard over the past year!

Late at night, Jiangli Courtyard.

Jiang Li was startled in her sleep by the sound of soft footsteps coming from the corridor outside the house. She opened her eyes immediately. Perhaps because of what happened throughout the day, she did not dare to let her guard down even when she was asleep.

Jiang Li first stretched out her hand to protect Lan Jie'er beside her, and said softly: "Who."

"Lady~"

Hearing Yuan Niang's low voice coming from outside the door, Jiang Li's tense heartstrings relaxed a little, knowing that Yuan Niang came to look for him at this time, it must be that the island master woke up.

She calmed herself down, propped up her tired body, picked up the coat beside her and put it on, lit the candle on the table, and opened the door.

"My lady." Yuan Niang bowed and said anxiously, "Ming Wu has come to tell you that the island master has woken up and wants to see you."

Jiang Li nodded, turned around and picked up the medicine box on the table: "Please help me look after my sister."

"Please rest assured, my lady."

Such a big thing happened in Jianglin Pavilion today. Before the island master woke up, many people on the island could not sleep that night.

Jiang Li came to the front yard carrying a medicine box. Seeing Ming Ye and Fang waiting there, Ming Wu hurried forward and bowed, "Madam Li, the island master wants to see you."

"Okay." Jiang Li said, and then gestured to Ming Ye and his wife, "Ming Ye will come with me. You, Ming Ye's family, will stay in the yard and watch over me."

"Yes, ma'am."

Even without torches, the summer nights weren't dim enough to see the road clearly. The moonlight stretched the shadows of the peach branches, and the evening breeze brought a hint of coolness.

The black-clad guards currently guarding the Jianglin Pavilion were among the few loyal men who had not been tortured and lost their minds by Baimian. They saw the newcomer from afar and respectfully bowed to greet him.

"Lady Li."

Jiang Li nodded slightly, motioning Ming Ye to follow her in: "Don't wait outside, come in with me."

Ming Ye dared not disobey: "Yes, my lady."

The two black-clad guards naturally wouldn't stop them.

Not to mention that Ming Ye was once the leader among their guards. Even though he was removed from the position by the island owner, everyone can see the contributions Ming Ye made today and his loyalty to the island owner.

Besides, it was Lady Li who gave the order, so they didn't dare to stop her.

Ming Yang and Ming Shi led the brothers to guard outside the bedroom. When they saw Jiang Li coming, they all bowed and greeted her politely: "Madam Li."

"Island Master has woken up. Is there anyone in the room to serve him?" Jiang Li asked casually.

Ming Yang nodded: "The two sisters-in-law from the Ming Wu family and the Ming Shi family are waiting on the island master inside."

"Okay." Jiang Li carried the medicine box and walked up the stairs in front of him alone.

The Mingwu family heard the commotion in the house and came to the door to greet them: "Lady Li, you are here."

Jiang Li nodded and asked, "Island Master awake? Have you prepared food?"

"Yes, there's chicken soup simmering in the kitchen. I just served the island master a small bowl of shredded chicken porridge."

"it is good."

Jiang Li understood, walked through the outer room, opened the bead curtain and approached, and saw the island master lying on the couch with a listless look on his face, but still trying hard to stay awake, with the Mingshi family guarding him.

"Madam Li." The Mingshi family bowed respectfully.

Jiang Li put down the medicine box and saw the island master slowly raising his hand towards her. She quickly reached out and shook it: "Master, are you feeling better?"

The island master laughed dryly twice, and said with a smile: "My life has run out, what else can I do?"

Upon hearing this, the Mingshi and Mingwu families turned away dejectedly, wiped the moisture from the corners of their eyes, and suppressed the sobs in their throats without daring to make a sound.

Jiang Li placed her fingertips lightly on the old woman's wrist pulse, knowing that she could not keep the old woman alive.

The island master saw the sadness in her eyes and couldn't help but hold Jiang Li's hand. He smiled and said, "Well, it's enough for me to live to this age. I called you here at this time because I wanted to talk to you for a while."

Jiang Li couldn't hide her deep melancholy. The old man before her had been so kind to her and her children, and even more so to her original self and her mother. If the island owner hadn't adopted her, Liu, still an infant, would have died in the wilderness, let alone been lost and abducted at the age of seven.

"You two should step back first." The island owner gestured to the two people serving at the bedside.

"Yes, Island Master."

After the two people from the Mingwu family and the Mingshi family left the room, the old man stared at Jiang Li's eyes with a sick and lifeless look.

"I know you are not her!"

hum~

The old island owner's words were unexpected, yet also expected.

As early as the first meeting with the old island owner, Jiang Li guessed that the old lady had seen something.
