The breeze blew by, and the grass blades swayed slightly, which made my ankles feel a little itchy. I moved my body and asked: "How did you deal with those liars just now?"
"I allocated an acre of medicinal land to that family, arranged for a master to teach them how to grow medicinal herbs, and waived their rent for three years." Danyang said calmly.
Well, that family had no choice but to commit fraud. If you think about it carefully, they are also poor people. It was just a small effort for me and others to help them.
Of course, it is okay to give them some gold and silver, but after a long time, they will easily take the kindness of others for granted, which will make them lose the idea of reliance on their own and become moths.
As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. I admire Danyang for how he handled it.
"Well, Chang Mu also promised to help diagnose the child..." Danyang's face was slightly red.
I smiled and pushed her, "He and you have the same mind."
Suddenly, Danyang's face turned red and he looked at the grass leaves.
After a while, Danyang raised his head and asked me: "Why are you looking for Bitter Leaf Asarum?"
"Well, didn't Senior Brother Ninth say that his sister is seriously ill..." I started talking about the situation.
Danyang was very disdainful when I mentioned Brother Ninth Brother: "Hmph, I don't believe a word of that kid's lies. I'm just waiting for you to tell me the truth."
"Ninth Senior Brother's words are not all lies," I looked into her eyes and said with great sincerity, "I am the girl who is seriously ill..."
"You?" Danyang glanced at me, grabbed my hand suspiciously, pressed my pulse, and probed carefully. After a while, I saw her two beautiful eyebrows frowning more and more tightly.
I smiled "haha", withdrew my hand, closed my sleeves, and said with a smile: "Am I seriously ill?"
Danyang looked solemn, "I'm afraid you've been poisoned for some time... The person who diagnosed you is very skilled in medicine. I'm afraid I can't think of such an ingenious way to detoxify..."
I felt that this topic seemed to lead to profound medical knowledge, so I quickly grabbed her hand and said, "By stealing our own bitter leaf asarum, wouldn't you be violating your father's last wish and making him unhappy even in the world?"
As soon as I said this, I regretted it. Since Danyang was the wife of Mr. Xu, once Mr. Xu died, she was afraid that she would have a rift with Mrs. Xu and Mr. Xu, so she made such a move.
This topic has changed in a really bad way.
Danyang bitterly picked up a yellowing blade of grass and said, "My mother has suffered all her life for him. She can't live in the same niche, and even in death, she can't live in the same hole. Why should I let him live in peace and happiness?"
I was silent for a while, then sighed softly and said: "No one is right or wrong when it comes to love, let alone who owes whom, it's just a wishful thinking..."
No, she's too lyrical. My life still depends on the bitter leaf asarum on her hand!
I coughed lightly and hurriedly said, "Your mother is really a virtuous and kind-hearted woman. I think maybe your mother was afraid that her status as the daughter of a sinner would implicate your father, so that's why..."
Danyang turned to look at me sadly, "I have thought about it clearly. Now that they are both dead, there is no point in worrying about this anymore...My mother and eldest brother both treat me sincerely, and I should not make them sad..."
I smiled awkwardly, but Danyang ignored me, got up and went to the medicine house. After a while, he picked up a dry herb and handed it to me. Could it be...
"I'll give this grass to you. It's useless if I keep it..."
My eyes were sore and I quickly looked up at the sky.
