Chapter 176 Sibling Compatibility
Since the old doctor has something for sutures, Chu Nanzhi doesn't have to worry about it any more. Thinking of Deng Tuzi, she said to Li Ce: "You can get some angelica."
Ma Defu echoed with some worry: "Tomorrow, the old man will let his nephew and those two sons open the way and accompany Li Langjun back to Luyan Port, otherwise it may be dangerous to meet jackals."
"No, no, it's just a few wolves, they can't do anything to me."
Li Ce smiled arrogantly.
Chu Nanzhi firmly believed in this point. She remembered that Li Ce once entered Broken Dragon Mountain alone, and with the big knife in his hand, killed more than ten wolves who were besieging. In terms of bravery, it is not comparable to ordinary people.
I think this is why Lin Jinxiao insisted that Li Ce come out with him.
But since Ma Defu opened his mouth, she had to accept his kindness, and said with a smile: "Sanlang, you'd better let them go with you. It's good to have a companion on the way."
The heart of harming others is indispensable, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. Three strong men are missing, especially his nephew Ma Laifu.
Otherwise, it is not easy to take care of Deng Tuzi and beware of this family.
Li Ce pursed his lips and nodded in a daze:
Protecting his sister-in-law is his unshirkable responsibility, but he is really not happy with two oil bottles.
But since the sister-in-law opened her mouth, he is not easy to disobey.
At dinner, according to Chu Nanzhi's instructions, Madfort prepared a clear soup hot pot for her, which contained mushrooms picked from the mountains and dried chili peppers, and then sprinkled some salt and the exclusive sauce made by Maliu's. Nan Zhi finally got her wish and ate the hot pot of her dreams.
This group of hunters did not eat game less on weekdays, but it was the first time they ate cow offal. The crispy tripe, tender bezoar throat and chewy tendon won the family's favor.
Ma Laifu realized at this time that Chu Nanzhi did not lie to him.
Thinking about how she defended herself in front of her uncle just now, she was very moved.
It's a pity that such a smart, talented, and good-looking woman married into a wife early. It's really a pity.
While eagerly serving Chu Nanzhi vegetables, he kept secretly sad in his heart. This eagerness made Chu Nanzhi feel a little panicked.
Ma Defu saw the embarrassment on her face, and explained from the side: "Although my nephew is a bit naughty, he is not a frivolous person, and he is quite arrogant. He looks down on all the ordinary women at the foot of the mountain. So I haven't married yet, but I have to find a talented and knowledgeable woman as my wife, I feel very helpless."
After finishing speaking, he put down the bowl and chopsticks and couldn't help being sad for a while, and then continued: "If Miss Chu doesn't give up, you can treat him as your own brother. He has no other advantages, but he can protect his shortcomings."
Hearing this, Ma Laifu glanced lightly at Li Ce who was beside him, and couldn't help but smirked: "Brother Li respects Mrs. Chu as sister-in-law, and I also want to call you sister Zhi, is it possible?"
"of course."
Chu Nanzhi saw that his face was serious, so she had no choice but to accept it.
Ma Laifu was very excited when he heard that, he patted his chest fiercely, and vowed: "Sister Zhi, don't worry, this call is not in vain, as long as it is about my sister, I will go up the mountain of swords and down the sea of fire, my little brother."
"Laifu's words are serious."
Chu Nanzhi looked at him with trepidation: "Since we are siblings, we should take care of each other."
"Yes, yes, sister Zhi taught me the lesson."
Ma Laifu was as obedient as a meek lamb, and happily scalded her belly.
After dinner, the sky gradually darkened, and the Ma brothers placed torches at the entrance outside the village to resist the invasion of wolves.
Ma Liu led the two daughters-in-law to pack out the two thatched huts next to Deng Tuzi for Chu Nanzhi and Li Ce to rest, and repeatedly told them not to go out at night, and then left with peace of mind.
Chu Nanzhi was lying on a somewhat old wooden slum, thinking about the Deng Tuzi next door, who just met by chance, and this guy actually handed over all his belongings to himself, which is surprising.
Thinking about the situation in Nanhua Mountain that day, he and his companion killed several men in black without any effort. What a formidable character.
Moreover, she probably inspected the arrow clusters she took out today, and they were unusual, finely crafted, extremely sharp, and looked like military arrow clusters.
This guy just donated two thousand taels of silver to Ma Defu casually, and such a free and easy temperament of spending a lot of money is not something that ordinary people's children can do.
"Baiyu people?"
Reminiscent of my previous guess about his identity, if he is really from Baiyu, then he should be the enemy of the Dahe Empire.
He sneaked into the Dahe Empire without fear of life and death, and what's his plan lurking in Nanhuaguan?
This made Chu Nanzhi more and more curious, and couldn't wait to know what kind of secrets Nanhua Temple hides, which is worth his risk.
The Third Eldest Princess, Lin Luochu, asked Priest Tanhua to amass money wantonly, but she only kept it in view, which shows that she is not doing it for her own selfish desires, and I am afraid there is some secret hidden behind it.
Then why are they collecting money, and what is the secret that Lin Luochu is willing to die to guard? These are the answers she is looking for.
With a lot of confusion, she slowly closed her eyes: right now, she can only place her hopes on Deng Tuzi and see if she can hear something from him.
This deep mountain and wild forest is no better than Chu's family. Although she was very sleepy after rushing for this day, she did not dare to sleep soundly. She was awakened several times at night by the crackling sound of burning torches outside the house. She tossed and turned until dawn, listening She didn't get up until there was movement outside, and saw that Li Ce and the Ma brothers had packed their bags.
"Sister-in-law, try not to move around when you stay in the mountains, everything is waiting for me to come back."
Li Ce came over and spoke first.
Don't worry about anything else, he thought his sister-in-law wouldn't be in a hurry when he went to Haikang County, even though the apprentice in the house suffered such a serious arrow wound, he just pulled out the arrow cluster yesterday and was alive and well, such a strong physique is probably not What ordinary people can do.
Besides, he saw that the fellow was quite attractive, comparable to his elder brother, and he was also worried that this apprentice would abduct his sister-in-law while he was away.
He has to go back and tell his brother what happened here.
Ma Laifu came over with a self-made bow and arrow on his back, a spear in his hand and said with a smile: "Sister Zhi, you can stay in the mountains without worry, we will **** Brother Li to get everything."
"Okay, you guys go and come back quickly."
Chu Nanzhi exhorted, and after saying goodbye to each other, they saw several people leaving in a hurry.
The hut began to emit a strong smell of ginseng soup. The family received 2,000 taels of silver from Deng Tuzi yesterday, but they were very attentive, and they cooked the ginseng soup so early.
Chu Nanzhi pursed her lips and smiled, and went to the kitchen to ask for some clear spring from the mountain to wash up. After that, Dengtuzi coughed slightly from the room.
