Being able to make Miss Meng stay, Xiaowan was the happiest of all. She pulled Ling Chaofeng and said, "My husband is such a good person."

Ling Chaofeng appeared to be displeased: "You didn't sleep last night, so you should go rest first. Taking care of the patient is more important, and you shouldn't tire yourself out."

At the other side, Ershan quietly went back to his room, but Aunt Zhang intentionally asked: "Ershan, why did you take his purse?"

Ershan hurriedly turned around, and his shy little brother blushed as he said awkwardly: "I caught her that day, I'll pick her up if she falls to the ground."

Uncle Biao said to his wife in annoyance: "Why are you teasing him?" Then, they chased Ershan to study, saying that even if it was lunch, they would send it over to him.

And on the seventeenth day of the first month, the sky had cleared in the morning and it was already snowing heavily. I heard that there were monstrous waves on the Baisha River, and those who were in charge of the government, those who were in charge of the county, those who could help along the way, had all gone up. After fishing for two days, there were no corpses to be seen.

In the afternoon, Ling Chaofeng went out against the snow and wind. Xiaowan was very worried and looked forward to see him back before nightfall, but Ling Chaofeng was fine.

"Next time, if you don't know how warm it is, then I'll let you see." Ling Chaofeng rubbed her hands together, his ice-cold fingers slowly warming up on his palm. He was both angry and pained, "Didn't I tell you to come back at night and wait here foolishly?"

"Such a heavy snowstorm, I'm worried about you." Xiaowan looked at her husband as if he had not seen enough. Even if he was angry and glared at her, she was not afraid.

However, Ling Chaofeng chided him: "Your sweet mouth is useless. You are not allowed to get sick, do you hear me?"

Xiaowan laughed: "I'm not tall, but I'm sturdy."

At this time, Aunt Zhang came over from the kitchen, and said while carrying the medicine, "Evening, let's go and feed the medicine to Miss Meng."

"He's coming." The Xiaowan ran over and came back, saying to his hubby, "Hurry up and go upstairs to change your clothes, I've already put all of these on the bed for you. Put them on a chair, I'll go and clean them later."

In the room on the second floor, Meng Lianyi was still unconscious. She was woken up by the Aunt Zhang and had to carefully feed the soup.

The Xiaowan pressed her forehead against the fire and laughed: "The fever has subsided a lot, but it's still warm, and needs to be taken care of. You burned your hands like a stove last night, and I was afraid you'd burn your head off. "

Lian Yi was extremely weak, and did not have the strength to converse with Xiaowan. However, this person kept smiling at her, and her beautiful big eyes were shining like pearls in the night.

"What's your name?" In her heart, Lian Yi finally opened her mouth as she envied this young lady for being able to live a carefree life.

"My name is Xiaowan, my husband is surnamed Ling, my father is surnamed Mu." The Xiaowan said passionately, "You can call me whatever you want. After the new year, I will be 18 years old. Miss Meng, how old are you?

Meng Lianyi turned her face away and ignored her. Seeing her like this, the Xiaowan did not say anymore and tucked her in. Just as she was about to leave, Lian Yi opened her mouth and said: "You know who I am, right?"

The Xiaowan said, "Let's guess, you are the Miss of the Lord Prefect. After all, only a bride passed by his door yesterday."

Lian Yi said: "If you want to send me back, let them come and pick me up."

"My husband said that when you recovered, you should decide where to go." Xiaowan's expression was gentle, "Don't let your thoughts run wild, first take care of your body, this disease of yours is no joke, you almost died."

Lian Yi sneered: "It's good that he died, but I don't want to die for them, so I fell into the water and unconsciously started swimming. I wasn't willing to freeze to death, and I didn't want to drown either, so I swam to the shore."

Xiaowan moved a chair over and sat down to listen quietly.

Seeing that she was quiet and did not say much, Lian Yi relaxed and told Xiaowan what had happened.

She wanted to commit suicide by jumping into a river, but she didn't expect her body's instinct and didn't want to die. Sadly, no one on board was really willing to jump into the icy river to save her. By the time they had to jump in, she was already behind the boat and had climbed onto the shore.

I walked along the river bank back to the pier, fainted in the woods, woke up, continued walking, and arrived here. Seeing that it was an inn, I wanted to find a place to stay, but I didn't expect that once I opened the door, it would be the person who caught me that day. Lian Yi coughed a few times, and continued, "I just want to take back the money bag that my sister gave me, even if she dies, I can still find her underground."

"Miss Meng, since you've survived, don't go looking for death." The little girl gently smiled and touched her hand, "Having revived, you better not disappoint yourself." "When one comes back from the dead, it would be great."

Xiaowan showed the words she had just learnt.

Lian Yi said in disdain: "Why are you always so happy, why are there so many happy things?"

Xiaowan said: "Do you feel more comfortable raising the corner of your mouth?"

Lian Yi was stunned, but Xiaowan gestured at her. She unconsciously raised the corner of her mouth, and in an instant, her heart became clear.

"I haven't smiled since my sister died." Lian Yi said, "She was forced to her death by her husband, but my father still wanted to send me there. When my sister had calmed down in the past, she told me to never go her way, but not only did my father not pity her, he also wanted to send me there."

"Is Eldest Miss being abused?" Anger surfaced on Xiaowan's face.

Lian Yi shook her head and said: "She had given birth to a daughter on the first year of marriage. From then on, her health was not very good, but her mother-in-law forced her to give birth to a son. He finally had a son two years ago, but he died three days later. "My father didn't shed a single tear, but when he rushed to the capital, he had already arranged for my marriage. The people there felt that my aunt would be better off with her sister's child than marrying someone else's child, so they agreed."

The Xiaowan said in heartache: "Are the eldest young miss's children still in the capital?"

Lian Yi laughed bitterly: "That is their family's incense, they will not treat it badly. I am willing to take care of a pair of children for my sister, but my sister repeatedly reminded me not to follow her path and not to be sent to the capital as a gift from my father. I hate that family to the bone. If I marry them, my life will be over. "

Hot tears rolled down her face as Meng Lianyi stubbornly wiped them away, but she could not stop coughing, causing her to lose half her life. Xiaowan hurriedly said: "When you're done, let's talk again.

It was like this until nightfall. When Xiaowan returned to her room to rest, she laid in Ling Chaofeng's embrace and listened to the sound of the wind blowing outside her window as she told her husband the story of the Miss Meng. She sighed with emotion, "

Ling Chaofeng smiled gently and teased: "Now when our manager speaks, he can change his words."

"What is a phrase?" The Xiaowan asked seriously.

"I really can't help but praise him." Ling Chaofeng tapped her on the cheek, "Idiot."

The Xiaowan was unconvinced and rubbed his body against her body, messily drilling into her clothes. Ling Chaofeng felt pain from being pinched and hurriedly grabbed her hands, saying fiercely: "You've grown in abilities, you're going to make a move now, right?"

In the blink of an eye, the young lady was stripped to nothing. She covered her face and curled up into a ball under his husband's body: "Husband, I don't dare anymore."

Ling Chaofeng didn't want to let go of her and kept her in his embrace, trying to scare her. He was just trying to scare her, how could he bear to hurt her?

Xiaowan timidly revealed her beautiful eyes through the gaps of her fingers, tenderly saying, "I want, I want …"

In the early morning, Xiaowan arrived in front of the door to clean up the snow with a glowing face. When she turned around, she saw Meng Lianyi standing in front of the window.

Xiaowan looked around cautiously, then ran back into the tavern and came upstairs saying, "How did you get out of bed? Don't stand by the window, you'll be seen."

"I'll get up and let you go." Lian Yi replied and then said embarrassedly, "Is there anything to eat, I … I'm hungry."

Aunt Zhang was carrying hot porridge as she entered the room. Smiling, she said, "Knowing hunger means getting better. You're still young after all."

Those who were sick, even though they were hungry, ate with all their might. After drinking two bowls of porridge, they were so tired that they leaned against their pillows and panted. However, they didn't forget to laboriously thank the two.

On the other hand, she reminded Xiaowan of that young lady who was captured by a large group of people last year. Xiaowan did not know how she was doing, and only hoped that all the good girls in the world would not be bullied.

Just like this, the Prefect's daughter stayed in the inn for four or five days. Her body gradually recovered, and her complexion was also returning to normal. When the medicine in the tavern was almost finished, Ershan took the initiative to go to the town to catch some medicine. The Aunt Zhang said that he was bored studying in his room and that it would be good if he went for a walk.

The doctor was an acquaintance of Ling Chaofeng, so he would naturally keep this a secret. However, when Ershan left the clinic with all those medicines, the patrolling Fast Catcher saw him and told him about the medicine. The smart Constable Li felt that something was amiss.

The county magistrate had to see the corpse and force him to send people to salvage the place. However, on such a cold day, how many people could be swimming in the cold river and look back, yet could not find the corpse? This caused several innocent lives to be taken.

If the county magistrate was suppressed by his superior, it would be hard to protect his Constable Li errand. He had both seniors and juniors, he could not easily lose his job, although he had a good relationship with Ling Chaofeng, but this matter, could not be casually resolved.

The closest place to where Miss Meng fell into the water was where she could land with only Ling Xiao Inn. However, they had all thought that she would not be able to come out of the water or would be washed away, so they had never thought that she would be able to run to the inn.

In any case, whether it was true or not, it was impossible to know by not walking around. If Miss Meng was really there, it would solve the problem.

Just like this, the county magistrate immediately reported the news to the magistrate, in order to prevent himself from sticking out and clashing with Ling Chaofeng. When Prefect Meng heard that his daughter might be missing, he immediately brought his men and rushed to the Baisha Town.

Night time, the entire family was eating dinner, there were many people coming from outside, a few Fast Catcher s rushed into the tavern, holding onto their swords, they stood at the door, and asked viciously: "Which one is Ling Chaofeng?"

Ling Chaofeng frowned slightly as he stood up. A few more people came in from behind, led by a very arrogant person, and beside him, were the familiar county magistrate and Constable Li.

"My daughter is in your shop?" Prefect Meng was angered until his face turned green, not giving Ling Chaofeng time to explain, he waved his hand, "Search him."

Everyone left the table. Xiaowan also rushed forward, just as she was about to ask Jade Ring to solve this problem, her husband grabbed her right hand.

Originally, Ling Chaofeng was afraid that the Xiaowan would rush forward to stop his from getting hurt by those people. He struggled a little, but Ling Chaofeng misunderstood that she had to go and stop him, so he said softly: "Don't move recklessly, if you want to keep her, you will know that this day will come."

Very quickly, they heard the lady screaming, and shouted "Let me go". Meng Lianyi was carried by two servant like men, and two middle-aged women followed inside, taking her in from both sides. Lian Yi's body was not fully recovered, and could not even struggle.

"Bastard!" Prefect Meng became angry from the embarrassment. He directly slapped his daughter in front of everyone, causing her to bleed at the corner of her mouth. She shouted sternly, "Are you trying to kill this old man? "What are you guys doing, take her back to me."

"Let me go, let me go!" Meng Lianyi struggled with all her might, but in the end, she was carried out to the carriage by a servant and stuffed into it.

Prefect Meng swept his cold gaze over the people in the store. Just as he was about to berate them, the county magistrate walked up and whispered a few words into his ear.

After the large group left, Ling Chaofeng released Xiaowan. He rushed to the door and just as he was about to make his wish, Ling Chaofeng walked up to her from behind and said: "Late at night, everyone has their own fate. Don't be sad, it's not like everyone can struggle through fate, our abilities are limited."

Xiaowan turned around and asked with tears in her eyes, "I was careful to hide her, how did I get discovered?"

Ling Chaofeng comforted her: "When I go and find out, Constable Li will give me an explanation."

Ershan stood at the side and said angrily: "Could it be that when I was going to grab the medicine, someone saw me?"
