"Oh, what a loser!" Shen Dashan couldn't lift his head for a long time!
"Sanlang is right. The world is not peaceful now. Even if we don't starve to death when we return to the village, if someone comes to our village, we still have to surrender!" Qian Guixiang also sighed leisurely,
Qian Wang and Qian Tiezhu’s brows were so furrowed that they could kill a fly.
Looking at the people crying loudly around them, the Shen family members stopped talking.
Because of the robbery by the horse bandits, most of the people had no food to eat. Some clever people secretly saved a little, but the little that a family could eat would definitely not be enough to escape and return in these four days!
"That's all. Save your energy and go to the mountains to find some wild fruits and vegetables! Let's eat on the way back."
I can hear the wailing, cheering everyone up!
"What's the use of going back? Our money and food have been robbed, and we'll be waiting to die if we go back!"
"You forgot, Sanlang's wife can treat diseases and collect medicinal materials! We continue to go to the mountains to collect medicinal materials and save our family as before."
"Now that the war is in chaos, every village will be under martial law when I go back. Who will want to see a doctor?"
The group of people suddenly fell into silence,
The reason why they can sell the medicinal materials for money is because Sanlang's wife sees patients from several villages, so the medicinal materials can also have a place to go.
And now that the war is in chaos, who dares to risk his life by crossing several villages to treat a disease?
Why does Sanlang's wife need so many medicinal materials when there is no one to treat her?
So whether to accept the medicinal materials or not is still a matter of course!
"Sanlang's wife, please show your support! Our whole village is waiting for your help!"
An anxious man asked Jiang Ci directly,
Jiang Ci sneered: "Is it possible that without my help, you would still be alive?"
Although he wanted to save the people in Taohua Village, Jiang Ci refused such moral kidnapping.
"You..." The tall and thick man pointed at Jiang Ci and was about to rush over.
Shen Shuxuan immediately protected her behind him,
"What are you doing? You have to be shameless when you put all the pressure of keeping a village alive on a little girl? Besides, in this time of war and chaos, no one comes to see a doctor. What should you do if you let Sanlang's wife save so many medicinal materials? We must be human beings. Conscience! In the past, people in our village didn’t know about medicinal materials and had no food to eat. It was Sanlang’s wife who taught us how to recognize medicinal materials. Otherwise, we would still be eating black noodles and wild vegetables in the village! We can’t make people feel cold!”
Li Zheng protected Jiang Ci solemnly and sincerely.
The man's eyes turned red with anger. He threw his arms and collapsed, sitting on the ground holding his head and crying:
"Then what should we do? If Sanlang's wife doesn't accept the medicinal materials and we have no money, then we will freeze to death and starve to death this winter!"
Jiang Ci looked at the crowd,
In the past two days, everyone who sold pears looked so alive when they got money, but now they feel so painful, helpless, and despairing.
The more Shen Shuxuan got to this point, the colder his expression became.
Jiang Ci suddenly felt a little distressed: Such a man should have looked so helpless when his village was massacred and his home burned down in his last life.
Li Zheng and the village chief also looked as if they were beaten by frost, and they seemed to have aged several years in an instant.
Jiang Ci asked herself if she was a kind person? She could answer with certainty: No! She stole money from those horse bandits and a girl from a good family. She was obviously capable, but she didn't stop it. It was obvious.
She doesn't want to cause trouble, she only cares about her own family!
But now...she wants to be kinder!
Jiang Ci stood up bravely,
The autumn sunshine was not dazzling, but everyone seemed to see the brightest dawn.
"Before the first snow comes in winter, I can continue to collect medicinal materials from everyone! However, all our family's money was robbed by horse bandits, but we still have some stored at home. If you don't mind coming to the village later, I will give it to you.
Silver, you can continue to sell me medicinal materials! I will continue to purchase them at the previous price!"
The village chief was obviously stunned,
"Sanlang's wife, if you can't treat people's diseases and can't sell medicinal materials, aren't you going to suffer a loss? Originally, this doctor is what I begged you to be. If you suffer a loss again, where will I put my old face?"
Jiang Ci's eyes narrowed:
"Village Chief, there is something I forgot to tell you. My husband has won the imperial examination and will go to the Spring Festival next year. So when it snows for the first time, our family will go to the capital to see him off for the exam!"
In ancient times, because the capital city was far away, scholars rushing to take exams often walked on the road for a year and a half.
But their family has a little money, so they can buy a carriage, but it will take at least two months to travel all the way.
She was afraid that something would happen on the road, so she left two months earlier. In this way, she would not be afraid of not being able to reach the capital in four months!
"Really? Sanlang really passed the examination?"
Li Zheng looked overjoyed,
Shen Shuxuan gently curved the corners of his lips and nodded slightly,
When Li Zheng, who had always been steady, saw Shen Shuxuan nodding, he jumped up and down, his face as happy as a child:
"Did I hear you right? There is actually a Juren in our village? Sanlang is the first Juren since our village was founded! If I remember correctly, Sanlang is only 15 years old this year, right? Dashan, you are too
You are so stingy! How long do you plan to cover up this good thing?"
Shen Dashan opened his mouth in shock at this moment,
"Pretend! Pretend for me again!" And Li Zheng didn't believe Shen Dashan at all with his little eyes that seemed to have seen through everything.
Shen Dashan was confused, he really didn’t know!
But looking at the people around him looking at him like "you're just pretending",
Shen Dashan suddenly lost his temper,
However, since the daughter-in-law can declare it with her mouth, it must be a done deal.
So a stiff smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's not something important, so I didn't say anything."
This sentence made the whole village lose their defense at once:
"It's not important? Dashan, do you think it's not important that your son passed the examination? Sanlang, come home with me! Your father is not worthy of being a father!"
"Juren! It has been more than 20 years since our village moved here, and there has never been a single Juren. Sanlang has already half-stepped into the officialdom. Shen Dashan, you actually said that this matter is not important?"
"Dashan, you have changed. You are no longer the simple Dashan you were before!"
…
And just as people in the village were discussing this matter enthusiastically and with envy on their faces,
A clear-looking man stood up and retorted loudly:
"Shen Sanlang, how dare you lie about this kind of thing? How do you know that you have won the election before the notice has been issued?"
Because Shen Dabao was too excited,
Even the voice was slightly broken,
And the Shen Dabao that everyone sees is always a proud and confident scholar. How can he be like this now?
Just a little...jealous!
"That's right! Saburo, you also got 99th place in the scholar examination. You missed one place and you wouldn't be on the list. How could you pass the examination? You don't know how to try to impress people. Find a better excuse."
