Chapter 223 Above the Forgotten River
"Look, who is on the opposite side?" Finally, someone noticed the figure opposite him and shouted.
"Is it a young master?" Murong Yanyan stood up and put her hands on her forehead to look at the other side, but the distance was too far to see clearly.
The fruitless man salvaging in the lake heard the movement on the shore and quickly turned around and swam to the other side.
At this time, someone pulled out a small boat from the grass beside her. Murong Yanyan was the first to jump on the boat. Everyone stopped her and had to let her go.
It's just that the lake is too big. From here to the other side, it feels like centuries have passed.
"Mother..." When the clay figurine saw Murong Yanyan, she immediately cried and rushed over. The stench all over her body couldn't help covering her nose, but Murong Yanyan hugged the clay figurine into her arms, and tears flowed down.
"Puer, is it really you? My son suffered, and my mother thought she would never see you again..." Murong Yanyan hugged Huo Jingpu, who was covered in black mud, for fear that he would disappear in front of her eyes again.
"Wow, mother, I'm wrong. I won't worry you anymore." Huo Jingpu's tears rushed out of his little black face with two white marks.
"Good son, let's go back first," Murong Yanyan hugged Huo Jingpu and stepped on the boat.
Thinking of the scene in the muddy water just now, Huo Jingpu still had a heart palpitations.
After Youyou ran to find someone for help, he only felt that he was getting deeper and deeper. There was something pulling his legs under the Buddha's water. The more he struggled, the more he couldn't escape. Soon the mud flooded his chin. He shouted for help, but there was no one around him. Gradually, his whole body was surrounded by mud and water. In the water, he held his breath, but soon couldn't hold it. He didn't hold it for a moment. With a slight gasp, the muddy water choked directly into the trachea along the nasal cavity.
The feeling of suffocation made him more and more panicked. He struggled hard in the water. Finally, his eyes were dark and he didn't know anything.
When he woke up again, he found that he was lying on a reed, covered with black mud. He thought he had died like this. Unexpectedly, when he stood up, the other side of the lake was already full of people.
Above the Wangchuan, under Sangzi. It turned out that life and death were just for a moment. Huo Jingpu looked at his hands regretfully. He died like this. He didn't know how sad his father and mother would be. He kept making them angry and worried about themselves, but when he really thought of leaving them, his heart was full of guilt.
So when he saw that the ferry was coming, it was Murong Yanyan, and the sadness in his heart could no longer be suppressed.
Seeing Huo Jingpu's return alive, the family members who had been worried were finally relieved. At least, their lives were saved.
The man who was originally sent to guard the lake looked at the lake in a dazment. After he left for a while, such a big thing happened! Knowing that he could not escape the punishment, he jumped into the water with a plop and wanted to find a shortcoming, but was picked up by the family next to him quickly.
"Please, let me die. If it hadn't been for me, nothing would have happened..." The man knelt on the ground with tears on his face and despair.
People on the shore sighed and shook their heads without saying anything. In any case, this is a life. How can they watch him die?
Murong Yanyan helped Huo Jingpu slowly walk down the boat.
"I'm here, mother. I'm sorry for giving birth to you. The next son will definitely repay you well." Huo Jingpu gently let go of Murong Yanyan's hand.
"Puer, where are you going!" Murong Yanyan held her son.
"Mother, don't worry, even if I drink Meng Po soup, I won't forget my mother," Huo Jingpu smiled and cried. He thought he was no longer in the world.
"Silly son, you live well, what nonsense do you say! Go back with your mother and be obedient," Murong Yanyan's tears remained again.
Huo Jingpu looked around numbly and found that this was the back garden of Huo's house. Only then did he realize that he was not dead!
"Mom, I'm not dead! Youyou, he must be scared," Huo Jingpu reminded Murong Yanyan in a word. If it hadn't been Youyou to rush to ask for help, I'm afraid they didn't know the news.
The family dodged left and right one after another. In the chaos just now, everyone obviously forgot the existence of Youyou.
"Youyou!" Huo Jingpu saw Youyou lying in the sun from afar and rushed over. He saw Youyou with a painful face and closed his eyes tightly.
Everyone gathered around, and Murong Yanyan hurried to her.
"He hasn't recovered from poisoning a few days ago, and today he was so shocked again... Come on, take him back to the house first!" Murong Yanyan did not hesitate. On the one hand, she sent someone to invite the doctor, and on the other hand, she led everyone back to her house. As for the man guarding the shore, the rescuer was worried, so he simply took him back and left one person to guard the shore.
Lu Mengji's body was gradually recovered due to a continuous medicinal bath, and the wound was itchy all over, but he couldn't scratch, so he told Green Ring to go out with her to divert his attention.
The green ring couldn't persuade him, so he had to follow Lu Mengzhu with Chuntao on the left and right.
When the sun was strong, most of the maids hid in the shade of the trees and gossiped. It happened to be about the ** that was just made in the house. He was talking about the news that Huo Jingpu was almost drowned, but it happened to be heard clearly by Lu Mengji.
Green Ring followed Lu Mengjian worriedly and saw that she had no reaction, and finally let go of her hanging heart. Just now, Mingyan also specially notified the Green Ring by Huo Shuangcheng, so as not to let Lu Mengzhi know this letter as much as possible, so as not to affect Lu Mengzhi's recovery from injury. Who would have thought that these long-tongued hooves would talk nonsense about things in this place!
Lu Mengjian quietly returned to the small courtyard, but packed up a few leisurely clothes and handed them to the Green Ring.
"Youyou has lived with the godmother for so long, and I don't know if it's better now. It's not convenient for him to see me now. Please take these two clothes and walk around. By the way, say hello to the godmother for me. Master Pu, give these two paintings to him. Lu Mengji said solemnly and handed it to the Green Ring.
The green ring took over the things and retreated in response, but his heart became more and more worried. He took things and went to Qinxinyuan first.
"I always feel that the matter of Pu'er falling into the water is not that simple. Since she doesn't say it, you don't have to say more. Go to the third lady and bring all the words to her, just say that Miss San is very worried. When her body gets better, she will go to visit." Huo Shuangcheng frowned and motioned the Green Ring to leave. But the suspicion in my heart is getting stronger and stronger.
According to the man guarding the lake, before the accident, he suddenly felt uncomfortable, so he had to leave for a while, but in this short time, Huo Jingpu and Youyou came to the lake.
And the bruise on Huo Jingpu's calf also shows that this matter is clearly intentional, but in this Huo's house, who dares to be so bold to attack the young master?
What's more, Huo Jingpu is still young and should not offend others. As for Youyou, it is even more incredible. Obviously, the poison on his body has almost been discharged, but this time there are signs of poisoning, which can be poisoned in full view of the public. This man is really bold!
It seems that the other party is ready, so Huo Shuangcheng can no longer let the other party come.
After the Green Ring returned from Huo Shuangjiang, he was a little worried. Although it was just Huo Jingpu fell into the water, if it was investigated, there were many doubts. Especially after Huo Jingpu drowned, who rescued him, and why did he put him on the other side of the lake?
All these mysteries are also lingering in Murong Yanyan's heart.
"Do you think someone wants to use Pu'er to deliberately attract everyone to poison Youyou?" That night, Murong Yanyan frowned and half lay in **. Seeing Huo Shuangjiang lying like nothing, she closed her eyes and pushed him coquettishly.
"Why do you think so much? Nowadays, people are fine. However, Youyou's child is also pitiful," Huo Shuangjiang pulled Murong Yanyan into his arms and thought of Huo Shuangcheng's discussion with him during the day.
"Yanyan, today, the eldest brother mentioned something about the third girl," Huo Shuangjiang stroked Murong Yanyan's hair and thought about it and planned to discuss it with his wife.
"You mean Meng Jian, what's the matter?"
"In fact, it's not a big deal, that is, you know that Kang'er married a wife in the countryside at the beginning. The wife was Meng Jian, but later, because Aunt Xue arranged Kang'er's marriage with Qin's wife, the eldest brother decided to divorce Meng Jian. But now the eldest brother regrets a little. He wants Kang'er and the third girl to be together again, but because Kang'er has married Qin's wife, the third girl can only be Kang'er's concubine..."
Before Huo Shuangjiang finished speaking, Murong Yanyan suddenly sat up and rowed Huo Shuangjiang angrily, "Your brain is in the water. How can you say this kind of thing? Besides, I think the third girl is very good. I don't want her to be a concubine. I don't agree."
"Yanyan, don't worry. I don't agree with the eldest brother, so I want to see what you say. After all, there is a relationship between Kang'er and the third girl. Although we now recognize the third girl as the goddaughter and let her live well in Huo's house, after all, it's not her own home. Although she doesn't say it verbally, she is afraid that she doesn't want to stay here. In addition, she has been poisoned these days. If she really wants to leave, how can we keep her? How can I explain it to Kang'er in the future?
"Since the eldest brother promised Kang'er that he would see the dream pen when he came back, but what if the dream pen doesn't want to stay? Are you going to put her under house arrest? After Huo Shuangjiang finished speaking, Murong Yanyan also fell silent. She also knew that Huo Shuangcheng had always attached importance to promises. Since she promised Kanger, she would definitely do everything, but for Lu Mengzhi, this was inevitably too reluctant.
"If you want Meng Jian to stay at ease, you should really give her a feeling of home, but the eldest brother doesn't want her to live in our courtyard, and we can't. In this way, if the third girl can marry Kanger, it is also a good choice. But what about Mrs. Qin?
