Chapter 191 Helping people and not letting them go
Chapter 191 Help people and don’t let them go
Xiaoxiao was rushing to grab a bite to eat, while Su Jinxiu wanted to find out about the situation near the village.
Without saying a word, he took a basket and walked out with Xiaoxiao.
On the way, Xiaoxiao also briefly introduced the situation of the village to Su Jinxiu.
There is a secret passage leading in and out of the cottage, and only the eldest brother, second brother and a few others know about it.
Except for that way out, everything else is a dead end.
Su Jinxiu was listening attentively and wanted to ask a few more questions.
Behind them, Shouhou called to them.
"Xiaoxiao, this woman's origins are suspicious.
Why are you leading her around the village? What if she is a spy sent by the imperial court?
If something happens to the cottage, can you bear it?"
Xiaoxiao looked at the thin monkey and pursed his lips.
"Second brother, it was the eldest brother who asked me to take my sister around.
Sister is not a bad person, don’t say that to her."
The thin monkey saw no one around, touched his chin and stepped forward.
"Your brother is careless, how can he think so much.
He has never been down the mountain, so how can he know who is at the foot of the mountain?
In this way, you hand people over to me.
Go back and I'll just tell your brother."
With that said, he stretched out his hand to grab Su Jinxiu.
Before he could touch Su Jinxiu, Xiaoxiao grabbed his hand.
On the surface, although there is still a bit of timidity, he refuses to give in.
"If second brother wants to ask sister something, he can do it in front of me.
Big brother asked me to watch my sister carefully, but I can’t leave her to you."
It took a lot of force, but the thin monkey's wrists hurt when pinched.
"You, you stinky girl, let go..."
"Hey, isn't this the second in charge?
What are you doing this early in the morning?
I see that the second boss has been looking bad recently. Is it because he has been working too hard?
Go to the kitchen and I'll steam a bowl of egg custard for the second master."
The second mother twisted her body and came from behind.
Looking at Su Jinxiu, he gave her a fierce look.
Xiaoxiao let go of his hand and Shouhou took a step back.
"Okay, Xiaoxiao, today you treat your second brother like this for the sake of an outsider.
I remember, don’t ask me for help in the future.”
He gritted his teeth and turned away.
The second mother saw this and hurriedly followed.
After the person walked away, Xiaoxiao patted his chest.
"Ouch, I was scared to death.
My second brother is so fierce, I thought he would beat me.
Don't be afraid, sister, I usually only listen to my elder brother.
I won’t let my second brother take you away.”
Su Jinxiu couldn't help but laugh when she saw that Xiaoxiao was obviously very scared of Shouhou and yet he was so protective of her.
"Let's go, I'll make some delicious food for Xiaoxiao."
The two of them did not dare to go deep into the forest for fear of wild animals.
Su Jinxiu caught two fish in the creek near the forest.
I picked up another nest of wild eggs and picked some wild vegetables.
Xiaoxiao looked at the full basket and was amazed.
"Sister, you are so awesome.
Usually we want to find some food in the mountains, which is more difficult than climbing to the sky.
How do you find the right one?"
Su Jinxiu was mysterious and smiled.
"Of course, it depends on your ability."
Because she can understand the words of the animals in the forest, she can find these things.
Carrying the things back to the kitchen, the kitchen door was opened.
The second mother's clothes were a little disheveled and she ran out in a panic.
"Go, go, take your things and go back to your place to do it.
Don't stay here, it's in my way."
Xiaoxiao couldn't get what he wanted, so he took his things and walked out.
Su Jinxiu glanced at the closed kitchen and followed Xiaoxiao.
After the people left, Erniang opened the door and entered the kitchen.
Looking at the thin monkey who was lifting his pants, he smiled angrily.
"It's all your fault that they almost discovered you.
I see you have fallen in love with that new little girl?"
The thin monkey pinched Er Niang's flesh and touched his chin with unfulfilled interest.
"Little girl, how can you be as energetic as you? I don't look too young anymore.
Must we get married? That little girl looks good and is a good childbearer.
Don't worry, even if I marry her, I won't treat you badly."
The second mother's man died, and the thin monkey often went down the mountain.
Bring some good stuff back to coax her.
Over and over again, she was willing to take advantage of Skinny Monkey.
Xiaoxiao and Su Jinxiu carried their things back to where Su Jinxiu lived.
Outside, a simple stove was set up.
Light the fire and start cooking.
The little clumsy boy could only help with the beating.
She watched Su Jinxiu heat the oil in a pan, fry the fish until brown, then pour in mountain spring water and bring it to a boil.
The milky white fish soup boiled, and she put on a few more cornmeal pancakes.
Just this little cornmeal was obtained with great difficulty by Xiao Xiao.
The fish soup is boiled, and the cornmeal pancakes are also browned.
Just smelling it makes your mouth water.
Xiao Xiao picked up a piece of fish and was about to stuff it into his mouth.
He saw Er Mao rushing in from outside, jumping up and down anxiously.
"Hey, Xiaoxiao, why are you still eating?
Your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law is not well."
"Wha, what?
Were everything fine yesterday? I'll go take a look."
Xiaoxiao threw away his chopsticks and ran outside.
Seeing how anxious she was, Su Jinxiu also followed her.
Dahu's courtyard is in the center of the village, and there are already many people gathered outside.
Xiaoxiao squeezed in and cried.
"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
Su Jinxiu followed her in and saw a sallow-looking woman lying on the bed.
He was clutching his chest tightly, and he seemed to be breathing out more than he was breathing in.
A man as big as Dahu was helpless holding her in his arms.
"Honghua, Honghua, it's okay.
We, we can get through this."
Xiaoxiao rushed to the bed and held Honghua's hand.
"Sister-in-law, you will be fine."
Su Jinxiu frowned, feeling like she was having an asthma attack.
Quickly open the windows around you to let some air circulate.
Then he quietly walked aside, poured a cup of tea, and poured some spiritual spring water into it.
Shouhou, who came over upon hearing the commotion, saw Su Jinxiu as soon as he entered the door.
As soon as he rolled his eyes, he had an idea.
"Brother, sister-in-law is sick again?
There is no one with medical skills in the village anymore, and the eldest brother has limited legs and feet and cannot go down the mountain.
Of course I had to make this trip.
That is, I often run up and down the mountain.
I don’t even have a warm quilt when I go home, otherwise, my eldest brother will still treat Miss Su..."
Dahu treasures this sickly woman the most, so he won't take this opportunity to get Su Jinxiu.
From now on, there will be no chance.
But before Shouhou could finish his words, he was pushed away by Su Jinxiu.
Su Jinxiu handed the tea to Xiaoxiao and motioned for her to feed it.
"First let my sister-in-law drink some water and loosen her collar.
This way, she will feel more comfortable."
Xiaoxiao quickly gave Honghua some water and loosened her collar some more.
Soon, Honghua's complexion improved visibly to the naked eye.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Su Jinxiu and smiled.
"Thank you, girl. I often hear Xiaoxiao mention you these days."
When Dahu saw that Honghua was healed, he immediately hugged her tightly.
"Miss Su, do you know medical skills?
That's great, don't leave.
As long as you stay in the village, I will give you whatever you want."
