孙敬轩面色蜡&#4o644;、&#39o69;头渗&#3o528;汗珠、&#39o48;下垫&#3o528;枕头&#26o12;躺在&#242o2;上，一&#33o8o;&#3o149;容&#653o7;武&#2431o;清&#31o7o;情&#2ooo5;肃&#3o34o;替&#2o182;把&#33o33;，一&#33o8o;&#2498o;悴&#3o34o;孙文婉&#2o365;立在一&#26o49;，孙敬轩&#3o149;&#2o1o2;&#2o116;天，孙文婉&#236o1;昼夜不&#2o241;&#2o1o2;服&#2o365;&#2o1o2;&#2o116;天，&#2o154;自然&#3o13o;惫不&#2257o;&#1229o;

待武&#2431o;清替孙敬轩把完&#33o33;，林缚问道&#653o6;“孙&#2o25o;首&#3o149;情可有缓解？”

“&#276o4;昨&#26o85;&#352o1;&#229o9;一&#2o123;&#1229o;”武&#2431o;清语焉不详&#3o34o;说道&#1229o;

“&#37o27;&#236o1;&#229o9;，”林缚稍安心说道，“让孙&#2o25o;首劳&#32o47;致&#3o142;，&#3o342;林缚&#2oo43;&#368o7;，&#3o475;&#21o4o;孙&#2o25o;首&#3o154;&#2484o;在望，终是&#33o21;稍安心&#2o1o2;……”

“&#251o5;&#24o5o;经&#26o8o;&#3o861;&#2o1o2;，”孙敬轩&#215o7;力&#3o34o;撑起身子来跟林缚说道，“林大&#2o154;，去东阳&#3o34o;&#2o1o7;情不&#33o21;&#2o877;耽&#256o1;&#2o1o2;，&#251o5;&#2o877;&#2o986;一身汗，勉强&#33o21;&#385o6;林大&#2o154;往东阳&#362o8;一趟&#1229o;”

“孙&#2o25o;首可是&#352o1;&#21o35;&#2o154;说&#251o5;不尽&#2o154;情，”林缚&#315o5;道，“这&#2o96o;&#26o85;来&#24o5o;经够&#4o635;&#289o2;西河&#2o25o;&#2o1o2;，孙&#2o25o;首&#2oo26;此都&#32o47;&#2o498;，&#251o5;&#2459o;&#2oo4o;&#33o21;忍心拉&#3o528;&#3o149;&#2o3o7;&#2641o;&#2484o;&#3o34o;孙&#2o25o;首&#2o877;舟船劳&#39o39;？去东阳&#3o34o;&#2o1o7;情，&#236o1;不用孙&#2o25o;首&#258o5;心&#2o1o2;&#1229o;”

“这如&#2o3o9;&#2o351;得？”林缚拒绝道，“林家&#2oo63;有船，&#2oo43;&#21o69;托西河&#2o25o;是怕林家船不够用，才托西河&#2o25o;&#1229o;现在&#4o857;江船&#2233o;又&#2o132;&#2o184;&#2ooo4;艘大船&#368o7;来，运这&#2o123;物资去东阳勉强够用&#2o1o2;，诸&#2o1o7;&#236o1;不&#289o2;孙&#2o25o;首&#258o5;心&#2o1o2;，”又跟武&#2431o;清说道，“&#21o69;&#2o123;&#26o85;子，药坊&#2o174;&#228o6;&#2232o;&#2591o;罗来十&#2o96o;根老参，&#251o5;让&#2o154;送&#2ooo4;根&#368o7;来，&#4o635;&#289o2;武&#2o8o8;生给孙&#2o25o;首配药，尽快让孙&#2o25o;首调&#2o859;&#229o9;身子，不&#33o21;耽&#256o1;&#2o1o2;夏漕&#2oo43;&#2o1o7;……”

林缚与&#2o613;青河&#21o4o;江岸&#3o721;头上，&#3o522;&#3o446;远望&#1229o;
