Chapter 1743 - 1743 Sour
My Entire Family's Gone Haywire!
1743 Sour
Ah âJiâ er was right. The quicksand Army had set up a trap. Seeing that the cloud Sea Army behind them didnât chase after them, Gu Xin felt a little regretful.
She now felt that she understood Angel a little more. If it werenât for the fact that the life-and-death situation between the two sides was imminent, she felt that she could take the time to anger Angel to death.
It was already night time when they returned to the city. General Ying came to welcome them with a few Deputy generals.
âThird miss, general Chi is still alive!â The one who spoke was a Deputy general from the Peng family. He was so grateful that he was about to cry.
âStill not awake?â Gu Xin asked as she got off the horse.
âNo, no, I didnât. However, the maidservant beside the third young lady said that her condition was stable for the time being. Iâm not feverish, but Iâve used up too much energy and need to rest for a while.â The Deputy general said excitedly.
âYes, Iâll go see him!â Gu Xin nodded and asked someone to bring her to Peng sanlangâs place.
Cheng huaijin didnât follow.
Peng sanlang was arranged to stay at Gu Xinâs place. The great Zhou Army returned first. Peng sanlangâs body was already clean. However, there was not a single part of his body that was uninjured. He was wrapped in cloth.
Xinxin, you stabbed your sword so deep and didnât kill him. How did you do it? â Princess Jinghe asked curiously when she saw Gu Xin enter.
Gu Hui and the others who stayed in the city already knew about the incident at the city gate tower. They felt that it was simply unbelievable.
âThird brother Pengâs heart is different from our looks. The hearts of ordinary people grew on one side, while he grew on the other. Therefore, ah âJiâ er and the others must have thought that third brother Peng was dead. After I stabbed him just now, I immediately fed him medicine and then quickly got someone to bring him back for treatment. Thatâs why he didnât die.â Gu Xin explained.
What she said was the truth. However, Peng sanlang was still alive partly because the position of his heart was different from others. On the other hand, Gu Xin had the Jade bead. As long as she was still breathing, the Jade bead could keep her alive.
âIs it different? How did you know?â Princess Jinghe asked.
âIâve heard grandma Xiao mention it. Grandma Xiao had said that not everyoneâs heart was on one side of the world. There were a few people who had their hearts on the other side. She had used third brother Peng as an example. She had also heard Grandpa Peng mention it before. I thought that Grandpa Peng wouldnât lie about this, so I gave it a try.â Gu Xin explained.
Princess Jinghe nodded her head and touched her face. She then touched herself and felt that what Gu Xin said was true.
Gu Hui gave Gu Xin a deep bow and Gu Xin jumped in shock, â âBig sister, what are you doing?â
âThank you, Xin Xin, for saving sanlangâs life,â Gu Hui said. This bow of mine represents the Peng family.â
Gu Xinâs heart ached. big sister, youâre speaking as if youâre only a member of the Peng family and not of the Gu family. Sigh!
Gu Hui patted her shoulder and said, â itâs all the same. Iâm a member of the Gu family first. Iâm a member of the Peng family later. Youâre my third sister, and heâs my husbandâs third brother. Donât be unhappy.â
Gu Xin let out a breath of air and went forward to check on Peng sanlang.
After the examination, she called her maidservant and wrote a prescription for her to get the medicine from yingshi Yuding. She also instructed her on how to take care of Peng sanlang and what to pay attention to.
After she was done, she left with Gu Hui and the others and went to Cheng huaijinâs place.
Cheng huaijin didnât look like he was in a good mood, and anyone could tell.
