Quick Wear: Explosive Change! The cannon fodder female supporting role is done with it

Chapter 261 Exiled Man's Sister-in-law 34
When Lin Zhi heard what Liu's mother said, she was thinking, could she be pregnant? A flash of joy flashed across her face, and she decided to go to the city tomorrow to find Zhang He to check her pulse.

Counting the days, it has been more than ten days since I came back, almost full term.

"You must have suffered all this time and your body is exhausted. I'll buy you a chicken and cook it for you to replenish your body..." Mother Liu was still talking, not thinking about anything else.

"Second sister-in-law!"

Liu Jing suddenly interrupted, looking at her with his dark eyes: "Are you free? I have something to ask you."

Liu's mother saw him smile and said, "Jing'er is back." After hearing what he said, she asked him what he wanted to see his second sister-in-law about. However, Lin Zhi narrowed her eyes and saw that Liu Jing's question was not a trivial matter. She comforted Liu's mother and nodded, "Okay."

The two of them left the yard. Liu Jing, still leaning on his crutches, walked to a bamboo forest behind the house and turned to look at the woman.

Lin Zhi picked up a bamboo leaf and held it in her hand: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Liu Jing did not hesitate: "Second sister-in-law, can you tell me who you were looking for after you came to the border, but second brother?"

Lin Zhi was surprised: "Didn't you ask about this? No."

But deep down I was thinking, why are you asking about this again out of the blue?

Liu Jing stared at her closely. "If it's not him, then who is it? Second sister-in-law went out frequently, and she didn't come back for more than ten days a few days ago. She also stayed with that man the whole time? A man and a woman are alone, and Second sister-in-law doesn't care about her reputation at all."

Lin Zhi...looked at him: "Why, do you think I'm ruining your reputation and want to drive me away?"

Liu Jing: "Yu Wan told me that my second brother is still alive."

Lin Zhi was surprised for a moment, and then she understood. Yu Wan was reborn and naturally knew that Liu Zong was still alive, but in the plot she had not told Liu Jing. Even after the Liu family was rehabilitated and she married Liu Jing in a grand ceremony, the new emperor bestowed the title, but gave it to Liu Zong, who was two years older than Liu Jing.

Her maidservant once complained to her privately, saying that it was Liu Jing who led troops in battle and made more contributions, so why did His Majesty bestow the title on Liu Zong?

There was dissatisfaction in her tone. Yu Wan was silent for a while before she lightly scolded the maid for talking too much, but did not punish her.

It was not until later, after Liu Zong's death, that the title fell to Liu Jing, and her son became the heir.

Thinking about it carefully, she was probably not very satisfied with His Majesty's arrangement, and even felt that the existence of her brother Liu Jing blocked Liu Jing's way. She treated Liu Zong with respect on the surface, but actually wished he would die soon.

But now, Liu Jing inexplicably no longer trusts her in this life, and is extremely wary of her. No matter what she does, she will not get a good response, and all her plans will go down the drain.

So, she used this matter as a bargaining chip, hoping that Liu Jing would be grateful to her and change his attitude.

"Really? Where is he?" Some even speculated that Yu Wan had probably sent someone to look for Liu Zong, but unfortunately the person had already left after being rescued by her. However, there was still Tao Hua, so it was possible that she could find him.

Seeing her surprised expression, Liu Jing frowned slightly and said, "She will go look for him... but I don't think she will find him. If my second brother is still alive, he would have been saved by my second sister-in-law."

Lin Zhi raised her eyebrows to see what he could say.

Liu Jing said seriously: "Second sister-in-law, that person must be my second brother."

Lin Zhi looked away and took two steps to the side, saying, "You go to the city every day, so you don't go there to drink tea or listen to opera to while away your time, do you? You are so capable that you can't find your second brother, so how can I find him?"

Liu Jing shook his head: "The coffins brought back at that time only contained my father and my eldest brother, and my second brother only had a few pieces of underwear. They said that he was brutally killed by the Xiongnu king, so I believed it. But now I think about it, although my second brother is not as strong as my eldest brother in fighting ten people, he is very intelligent. How could he be killed so easily?"

"It's just that Black Mountain is too big, and it's been three months, and General Ling is particularly vigilant, so I think it's very difficult to find someone."

"But my second sister-in-law is different. She will definitely have her own way."

Lin Zhi... Huh? "Second sister-in-law, you found my second brother, but you didn't tell me. Are you afraid of leaking the news?"

"Or maybe, Brother doesn't want you to tell us."

Linzhi...you kid, you insist on guessing like this. Obviously you are sure that I have found the person and you don’t believe what she said before at all.

"I heard what mother said. Is the baby in my second sister-in-law's belly my second brother's flesh and blood?"

Liu Jing's words were firm, and his face showed that he was certain of the truth: "I know Second Sister-in-law is a person who is not so casual. She would never do anything to let Second Brother down as Yu Wan said. But Second Brother is also like that. How can Second Sister-in-law bear all this alone?"

"Now that I know, I will definitely protect my second brother's flesh and blood, and will never let anyone attack you, my second sister-in-law, so that the child can be born safely."

"My second sister-in-law is already pregnant. She can no longer eat coarse food with us. I will go to the city to buy some meat tomorrow so that she can have a good diet."

He smiled at her and asked, "Second sister-in-law, do you think it's feasible?"

His words were confident, but there was clear trepidation in his eyes, and his hands were gripping the cane so tightly that their pupils turned white, as he nervously waited for an answer.

Lin Zhi looked at him and suddenly said, "Yes."

Liu Jing suddenly lost his voice: "What?"

Lin Zhi repeated, "Yu Wan is right. Your second brother is indeed still alive. I found him in a village near Black Mountain."

He lowered his head and touched his belly. "If there is really flesh and blood in my belly, it must be your second brother's."

With a bang, Liu Jing lost control of the crutch in his hand, and he fell to the ground without any stability. He was so painful that his face turned pale, but he reached out and grabbed Lin Zhi's skirt, raised his head, and breathed rapidly: "You, are you telling the truth?"

The dim sunset glow illuminated his astonishingly bright eyes, which were full of disbelief.

Lin Zhi nodded: "Really? I asked you for nearly 400 taels of silver notes. After I arrived at the border, I took the money and asked the peddlers to help me find you. They walked the streets and alleys and were very familiar with this place. So after a lot of effort, they finally found your brother."

This matter will not be told to Liu's mother and Liu Xiaomei, but as the current head of the Liu family, Liu Jing must be told so that things can be done more conveniently.

"What about him? Is he seriously injured? Where is he now? Has a doctor been found? Why did you come back alone and why didn't he come back..."

He grabbed her excitedly and kept asking questions.

Lin Zhi pursed her lips and looked speechless. Liu Jing suddenly didn't dare to ask, "Second sister-in-law, is my second brother okay?"

Lin Zhi shook her head slightly: "It's fine for now. I found a doctor for him and he is recovering well. He can move around without any problems, but..."

Liu Jing was worried.

"He didn't let me tell you he was still alive, for fear that you would be happy for nothing."

She looked at him and said, "You came to the city to try your best to find evidence and redress the Liu family's injustice. Your second brother is the same. Although he knows that mother and you are sad, he has already prepared to die and will leave as soon as his injuries recover."

"I stopped him so hard that he managed to keep the baby for another half a month."

"Before he left a few days ago, he said that if he died, he should be considered dead along with his father and elder brother. Don't tell you, so as not to add to your sorrow."
