Chapter 7 From now on, I will dig yams to support you
Chapter 7 From now on I will dig yams to feed you
An Shuyao sighed and said miserably: "My husband-in-law and I were in trouble, and we were chased by our enemies and fled to Anzhou. He fell ill on the way to escape, so I could only sell the clothes for money."
I bought medicine for my husband to treat his illness and bought some food. I just hope that I can get through this winter safely."
When Aunt Lin heard this, she immediately felt sorry for the little girl: "What about your parents?"
Parents?
Recalling the memory of the original owner's father and mother who hated her, he almost wished he could eat her blood and chop her into pieces to smooth out the rough life of his own daughter who had been wandering outside for sixteen years.
A trace of sadness emerged in her heart. She could understand the pain of the original person, because she was also abandoned by her parents in modern times, and they were the same kind of people.
An Shuyao lowered her eyelashes and looked lonely: "I have no relatives."
Aunt Lin instantly felt distressed and quickly grabbed An Shuyao's hand and patted it: "That's all. From now on, when you go to Rock Village, as long as you don't do anything extraordinary, the villagers will help you with every little thing."
Several other aunts agreed. They were not extremely evil people at first. They were just not familiar with An Shuyao at first. When they heard that her life experience was so miserable and she had to take care of her sick husband alone, they began to feel sorry for her.
The most important thing is that An Shuyao is cute. She is the favorite girl among country women. She is bright and energetic and loves to laugh. No matter how you look at her, she is very pleasing to the eye.
No, after only one train ride, An Shuyao instantly became involved with these aunts. Her eloquence made these country women smile.
After arriving at her destination, An Shuyao greeted all the aunts before walking towards her dilapidated thatched house.
When she arrived at the door, she pinched her thigh and burst into tears from the pain.
She sniffed and walked in with the basket on her back. Lu Jin took a broken bowl in his hand and stood up to go to the kitchen.
He looked at the person standing at the door, his eyes filled with tears and looked pitiful. Before he could do anything, An Shuyao ran over and hugged his waist, rubbing her arms against him.
"Oh, oh, oh, sir, I'm so useless."
Lu Jin struggled for a while, but couldn't get away. He was not used to close contact with An Shuyao at all, but when he looked at An Shuyao, whose shoulders were shaking from crying, his expression softened a little.
"Remove your hands first."
"Hiccup, no, I'm so sad."
Lu Jin: "..."
He put the bowl on the table and was silent for a moment before saying, "What's going on?"
An Shuyao cried so hard that she kept crying and burping: "I went to sell ginseng today, and when I was walking on the street, someone stole my ginseng."
"..."
Only then did Lu Jin see that her clothes had changed: "Where are your clothes?"
After An Shuyao had rubbed enough, he reluctantly left Lu Jin's arms. Not to mention, despite his sickly appearance, his figure was really good and he was still warm.
She lowered her head and whispered: "I sold the clothes for fifteen taels of silver, bought you medicine, bought some rice and flour, and bought cloth to make clothes for you."
She raised her head and looked at him, her eyes clear and bright: "Don't worry, my husband, I won't let you starve. I will definitely make money to cure your disease. I have already inquired about it. The old doctor said that we will harvest wild yams."
I will dig yams to feed you."
She spoke seriously, with a solemn face. Lu Jin looked at her eyebrows. The flower of wealth was covered with a layer of dust and buried in the dark Anzhou. But the delicate flower was always a delicate flower, and she was still dazzling.
The little woman I had never looked at in the past seemed to have really changed. The most obvious thing she had become was that... she now particularly likes to cling to him.
Lu Jin coughed slightly, which caused severe pain in his internal organs. Although he was bright and beautiful on the outside, he was already dilapidated on the inside.
Now he has to rely on An Shuyao to support him. He slightly curved his lips in a mocking manner: "An Shuyao, you have also seen that I am a useless person and may not live long. I am as smart as you and I don't know how to choose."
, I don’t know what else you want from me, I have nothing left except this life.”
An Shuyao blinked her tears, thinking about Lu Jin's intention in saying this. Could it be to test her sincerity?
She immediately became alert, helped Lu Jin sit on the chair, and said seriously: "Ms. sir, what are you talking about? How could I dislike you? I have followed you to this place. I would have run away a long time ago. Don't worry.
, I will not leave you."
What Lu Jin just said was serious. For a moment, he really didn't want to hold An Shuyao back anymore, although their marriage was not happy and could only be described as terrible.
He has talked to this point, she still wants to follow him?
Now he was suffering from illness and had no power or status. He lowered his eyes to see what she wanted.
Seeing that he was silent, An Shuyao hurriedly changed the subject: "Ms. sir, I'm going to boil some medicine for you. Let's cure the internal injuries first, and then slowly remove the poison, one by one."
Lu Jin sat on the chair and watched her working in the kitchen.
The thatched house is very small, divided into two small rooms, one for eating and sleeping, and one for lighting fire for cooking.
The room was filled with the smell of fireworks, and occasionally she could be heard choking and coughing. She poured the medicine into the newly purchased medicine jar. One patch of medicine could be taken for up to a day and a half. Everything in Taolin County was extremely expensive.
It was a miracle that people here didn't starve to death. When she came back, she looked at the field on the roadside again. It was already late autumn, and there was nothing else in the field except sickly radishes.
This radish is still small when grown, tastes bitter, and is not very delicious.
Logically speaking, wheat can be grown on land like this, but people here would rather buy it from outside than grow it themselves. She doesn't understand why they allow prices to rise even though they are so poor.
No one is going to improve it.
While she was making the medicine, the pots, pans, rice and flour seasonings she bought in Taolin County all arrived.
She built a small stove with bricks to boil the medicine, and used the big one to squeeze the oil.
This is thanks to the fact that she raised herself by herself in modern times. Otherwise, if she was really the daughter of a rich family, she would have starved to death long ago.
The medicine was boiled in Lingquan water. The strong smell of the medicine had a refreshing fragrance. The medicine was almost ready, so she poured it into a clean bowl and served it to Lu Jin after it cooled down a bit.
He was still sitting at the table at this moment, quietly wondering what he was thinking.
"Ms. sir, the medicine is ready. You can drink it after it cools down."
Lu Jin raised his head and glanced at her. His black hair was tied with a blue tie, and his face was cold and deep. He responded softly: "Yes."
Then An Shuyao went to the kitchen to make lunch.
She cooked white rice, spread out some white flour cakes, made bone soup, and fried meat with yams.
The aroma is fragrant when the dishes come out of the pot. An Shuyao is still confident in her cooking skills. Although she is an ancient doctor, it does not hinder her love for food.
