The first rays of the morning sun illuminate the roofs of the shackles in the slums by the warm river.

A few fishermen's children chased and played barefoot on the ice ballast on a cold day, and the little feet were as red and black as green turnips, but they did not feel pitiful at all, and ran happily, their rough feet stepping on the uneven ground, and spilling laughter all over the ground.

"Ahh

"Really, it's coming to us, take a look—" The child echoed.

Hulala, more than a dozen small figures rushed to the direction where the carriage came, like a beggar kingdom of ministers welcoming their return from afar.

A horse-drawn carriage was literally coming along a potholed path through bumps and undulations.

"I know this carriage, it was a guest who came yesterday, to the fish king's house. A little girl cried out rubbing her dirty little face.

"Yes, yes, the little ladies who got out of the car are so beautiful, their faces are beautiful, their clothes are even better, and their hairstyles are like nothing we have ever seen!" said a child wiping a handful of snot hanging from the corner of his mouth.

"That little lady in a white shirt and a purple shirt is a goddess doctor, who saved the little Zhuangzi - the little Zhuangzi was going to die-"

"She also bought the little dumb girl to make a maid ring - fifty yuan a lot, and gave the little dumb girl's mother fifty wen for nothing - a total of one or two silver, obediently, my father and mother said, why is the little dumb girl so good, we who eat idle meals can meet such luck one day!"

"It's definitely here to find the Fish King, let's go and tell the Fish King-"

The mud-covered red feet rushed to the door of the fish king's house.

Liu Wan lifted the curtain and looked at it from a distance, curious: "Daughter-in-law, those children look about the same age as me, why don't they wear shoes, aren't they afraid of the cold?"

Several people in the car lifted the curtain to look outside, everyone was silent, and no one answered this question.

Who is not a child from a poor family in Chang'an, if the family is rich, they will not come out to be maids at such a young age.

Lancao looked at the dumb aunt, and said in her heart that the little young master asked the little grandmother about the sore spot, the little grandmother's family is poorer than us, and I think that the old man bought a little dumb from the tenant family to be a child daughter-in-law, and the little grandmother at that time was so timid and afraid of things, she must have been very bitter when she was a child.

The dumb aunt raised her hand and touched Liu Wan's head, touched her neck, her fingers suddenly became gentle, and she grabbed Liu Wan's little ear and pulled it fiercely, "Gentlemen, where do you know about the people's suffering, if they have shoes, they will definitely not be barefoot - but this is not to blame you, it is not your fault-"

Liu Wan regained his ears, shook his big eyes, and was a little aggrieved, "Yes, I haven't bullied them." ”

There were a lot of people gathered at the door of the fish king's house for a long time, and everyone was pulling their necks to look at it, as if they were welcoming this carriage that came early in the morning.

"So many people?" Lan Cao frowned, a little worried.

"Don't be afraid, you must be here to seek medical treatment, let's go see the fish king first. The dumb aunt looked very calm but casually ordered.

Lan Cao hugged a small box in her arms tightly, and carried a large cloth bag in her hand.

"The Goddess Doctor is here—it's the Goddess Doctor—"

People rushed around and talked happily.

Qian'er was the first to jump out of the car, pulling Chang'an behind him to get out of the car, and the two of them each carried a cloth bag, and as soon as they got out of the car, they opened the bag to distribute dried fruits to the children around them.

Small pastries wrapped in walnuts, red dates, peanuts and oiled paper...... Every child has a share, and the slender hands of Qian'er and Chang'an grabbed it and put it in the dirty little palms of the children's outstretched out.

"Let's eat and play, be careful—" Asa'er raised her voice and shouted, and she blushed when she finished speaking, after all, this was the first time she had spoken in front of everyone.

"Wow, that's delicious—"

"Everyone has a share—"

"Isn't that a little mute? look at her, she's becoming unrecognizable—"

"Yes, yes, look at how clean and beautiful she has become, how can her clothes be so new and so clean?"

"Shoes are embroidered, too—"

"My hair is combed up, and look how slippery it is, it must have been smeared with a lot of osmanthus oil—and there was an extra hairpin!"

"Oh, hey, this kid, I can't imagine falling into the nest of blessings, look at this all-round style, it's just a comparison with the rich lady——"

"This kid can be regarded as having survived a hard life - he has met a good Samaritan-"

"Go and call her mother to take a look—"

The crowd shouted in chaos.

Although Chang'an couldn't hear these fiery discussions, she felt the envy and surprise in those eyes, and suddenly a little face was red behind her ears, and she also felt that her status in the eyes of the villagers had been greatly improved, so she was surprised and excited, and put the fruit in her hands into the children's hands on tiptoe, but her eyes were quietly full of spicy tears.

Lancao protected the dumb aunt Liu Wan and ignored everyone, and went straight to the fish king's house.

The door of the straw shed had already been opened, but the room was very quiet, there were several old people sitting on wooden chairs, and the fisherman was curled up in the quilt on the kang, and the king of fish himself was lying in another quilt, covered with a thick quilt, and was struggling to get up, and was held down by an old man, "You have to lie down again, this body is still very weak-"

The dumb aunt took the lead, and the bodies of Lancao and Shen'er were slightly lowered at the same time, frowning and bowing their heads, and saluting the old men present.

Where had the old people received such a great gift from the women, and they suddenly stood up in a panic, and when they stood up, they realized that they should not be so flustered, and sat back again, but their eyes already had a good impression of these sudden visitors.

Without waiting for the order, Lancao had already opened a big cloth bag and took out something on the table, nothing else, it was a bag of herbs, "This is deer antler, this is Suoyang, this is Eucommia, this is Ziheche, this is ginseng......" Every time I take out the same, Lancao chatters the same.

Hearing this, the old men's eyes widened one by one. Although they live a poor life, their knowledge is not shallow, and the deer antler velvet of this Suoyang life is a precious medicinal material, so they naturally know it. But what did this woman do with these medicinal herbs all of a sudden? And judging from the paper packets, each of them is not light.

"Every night before going to bed, take some of each herb and boil a medicinal soup to soak the whole body, drive away the cold and pull out the poison, strengthen the muscles and strengthen the body, and can cure the cold disease that you have soaked in cold water under the ice. Lan Cao saluted the fish king and commanded gently.

Oh, and these herbs were given to the king of fish?

The old man looked at each other in deep surprise.

The king of fish didn't seem to be surprised, and a pair of eyes flashed with a resolute luster, "Thank you, girl, it's just that my strong body and bones like a cow, where can I take care of it so finely, I'm not good!" said and raised his hand, and the big fist slammed into his chest.
