"Why don't you see a doctor?"

Shen Changting's brows furrowed, and he looked worried.

Zhao Qingzao shook his head and said, "No need, it's just a twist, it's not a big deal, you help me up first." ”

Speaking of the black-hearted doctor, she didn't want to sprain this kind of sprain no matter what, not to mention that it was not a big deal, in her previous life, Zhao Qingzao was naughty when she was a child, and she didn't suffer this kind of injury at all, she didn't feel anything at all, but it was just a temporary delay.

"It's really just a sprain, not a bone, right?" Shen Changting was still a little uneasy, and pinched Zhao Qingzao's ankle.

"Hey, eh, don't pinch it."

Zhao Qingzao was embarrassed to death, in broad daylight, fell on the road, and couldn't get up while sitting on the ground, it was really embarrassing, looking at Shen Changting's concerned face, he was angry and funny, and immediately comforted: "It's really okay, help me, let's go back first." ”

"Okay."

Seeing this, Shen Changting turned his back to Zhao Qingzao, squatted down, took Zhao Qingzao's hand and put it on his shoulder, and said, "Come up, I'll carry you." ”

Zhao Qingzao was stunned for a moment, and his heart was also a little moved, and he hurriedly said: "No, no, just help me go, just move your muscles and bones, and you will be fine in a while." ”

"How can you go like this?"

Shen Changting was still a little uneasy, and he didn't care whether Zhao Qingzao was willing or not, he pulled Zhao Qingzao's two wrists and pulled them on his shoulders, and suddenly Zhao Qingzao's whole body was lying on his back.

Zhao Qingzao was worried that his body would not be able to bear it, and the old problem had been committed again, so he wanted to withdraw his hand, but Shen Changting caught it to death, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "I'm fine, I can still walk, you can just help me." ”

"Okay, don't bother, carry your little girl, you can't carry it, it's okay." Shen Changting's stubborn side was instantly reflected.

Faced with such a Shen Changting, Zhao Qingzao knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he immediately lay on Shen Changting's back.

Shen Changting looked thin, but he walked very steadily, Zhao Qingzao saw this, and was a little moved for no reason, no matter what, Shen Changting was really good to her, and he really regarded her as a home.

Thinking of this, she was also emotional.

Fortunately, the door of the bookstore was not far from where the ox cart stopped, and soon Shen Changting carried Zhao Qingzao to the side of the ox cart, carefully put her on the ox cart, and then asked, "You really don't need to go to see the doctor?" ”

"No, you can leave after a break, it's okay."

Zhao Qingzao shook his head, looking at Shen Changting's gaze, it softened a lot, just such a moment of effort, Shen Changting's forehead also had sweat stains.

Zhao Qingzao sat in the car, looking at Shen Changting, who seemed a little silent on the side, who was concerned about her just now, and couldn't help but say quietly: "Do you think I asked the shopkeeper for money just now, it's really wrong?" ”

Shen Changting was stunned for a moment, sighed and said, "It's all over, presumably he won't mind." ”

"That's what I said, but I really can't see him fooling you like this, how much is a book worth, don't you really know that he is bullying people when he lowers the price like this."

Zhao Qingzao said, putting aside this topic, and said: "I know that money is indispensable to live, especially now that you have no land and no craftsmanship, so I thought that there is a matter of copying books, which is not bad, but how much salary should be charged, I have to have a number in my heart, money is earned, but it is also saved by these catties, you see, this is only a few days, I won't save you a few taels of silver." ”

Shen Changting was silent for a while, and then said: "What you said is reasonable, but this kind of thing, you can wait for the next time, after all, I agreed before, even if I know that it is a loss, I can only blame me for not paying attention, why blame it on the head of the shopkeeper." ”

"This is justice, if you are not fair, you will be screaming, what's wrong with this!"

Zhao Qingzao rolled her eyes, she had a new understanding of Shen Changting's admitting death, and she dared to feel that this was a willingness to fight and a willingness to suffer, so she endured the beating, she understood this truth, but she couldn't be angry.

"Is that what you said? Having said that, who did you learn these truths from, and you spoke one by one, and the words were strong. Shen Changting said angrily, and was quite helpless for a while.

When he argued with Zhao Qingzao just now, he didn't feel anything, but now that he thinks about it, he realizes that Zhao Qingzao's words are really not something that a girl who can't read big words can say.

Zhao Qingzao was shocked, followed by a cold snort, and said, "Everyone understands the clear truth." As he spoke, he said: "I know that you have an upright temperament, and you are not good at arguing about some things, and if there is such a thing in the future, it is still up to me to come forward, so as not to suffer again, and be bullied by others in vain, and be wronged." ”

"Okay, but you're a daughter's family after all, don't disgrace your reputation." Shen Changting knew his shortcomings and readily agreed, but he still reminded Zhao Qingzao.

"I know, don't worry."

Zhao Qingzao's heart warmed, and he nodded leisurely.

In this way, there was a ride and a ride, and with the old scalper pulling the cart leisurely, he had arrived at the head of the village before he knew it.

After getting off the ox cart, Shen Changting was still waiting to carry Zhao Qingzao, but Zhao Qingzao refused, after resting all the way, she slowly moved around, and now where she twisted, there was no big problem, and she was already able to walk.

When he got home, Zhao Qingzao persuaded Shen Changting to have a good rest, found a small crockpot to wash it, and began to decoct medicine for Shen Changting.

After being busy for more than half an hour, he finally finished decocting the medicine, poured a small half bowl, and brought it to Shen Changting, and said, "Brother Changting, the medicine is ready, you drink it first, and you have to have lunch later." ”

When Shen Changting heard this, his face was bitter, and he hesitated for a long time before he said, "Okay, you can put it there first, and I'll drink it when it's cold." ”

"No, I'll have to watch you."

Zhao Qingzao, when he was sick in his previous life and asked him to take medicine, he didn't throw the medicine away, and at this time, when he saw Shen Changting's face, he knew that he was definitely not happy to drink, so he immediately sat on the side, staring at it.

Seeing this, Shen Changting was very helpless, so he stubbornly picked it up and poured it violently, but as soon as the medicine was taken down, he screamed and spit out the medicine violently.

Zhao Qingzao was startled, hurriedly took the bowl in Shen Changting's hand, and asked, "What's the matter, this medicine can't be drunk?" ”

"No, it's not."

Shen Changting spit out a few mouthfuls of saliva as he spoke, rinsed his mouth with herbal tea, and then said with a bitter face: "Why is this medicine so bitter, it can't be swallowed at all." ”

Zhao Qingzao was dumbfounded, and muttered: "Good medicine is bitter, isn't this normal." ”

"I can't drink this medicine, it's too bitter for me to swallow." Shen Changting pushed the bowl as he spoke, and said helplessly.

Zhao Qingzao was helpless, seeing that Shen Changting didn't seem to be cheating, he took the bowl with a suspicious face, and tasted it himself, but the whole tongue was numb, but it didn't feel much bitter, and he couldn't help but wonder: "It's okay, it's not very bitter." ”

"No, I've been afraid of bitterness since I was a child, so I feel sick to my stomach." Shen Changting was also helpless.

Zhao Qingzao really didn't know what to say now, she had never seen such a squeamish man.

After thinking about it, she finally sighed and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it in the evening, when the time comes, I'll ask where there is rice candy or candied fruit or something, buy some, and go cook first." ”

"Okay."

Shen Changting nodded busily as if he had been amnestied.

It's hypocritical!

Zhao Qingzao scolded secretly in his heart, glanced at Shen Changting with contempt by the way, cut off the medicine, and began to heat the rice.

Most of the people in the ravine have two meals a day, unless their family is particularly good, they will add one meal at noon, but Shen Changting doesn't seem to pay attention to this, and Zhao Qingzao simply started three meals a day, after all, they are not so poor that they can't open the pot.

The rice was cooked twice in the morning, and there were dishes, as long as it was heated casually, it was not troublesome, originally Shen Changting wanted to eat cold, but the pig was still in the water, after all, it was a meat dish, Zhao Qingzao was not worried about Shen Changting's body, so he started a fire.

After all, Chai He Mountain is everywhere, and it is not valuable, one or two pieces of silver can buy thousands of catties, enough to burn for two years, in this regard, Zhao Qingzao is not reluctant.

After eating, Zhao Qingzao was worried about getting some candied fruit, so he let Shen Changting rest at home and went to see Grandma Niu by himself.

Perhaps because of the bowl of pig in the water, Grandma Niu was very polite when she saw Zhao Qingzao, and said with a smile: "Qingzao, why did you come to me?" ”

"Grandma, I want to ask you, who has candied fruit in this village, I want to buy some." Zhao Qingzao asked.

"Preserves, what do you want that thing for?"

Grandma Niu was stunned for a moment, and then said earnestly: "Green dates, this candied fruit is a good thing, but it's not something that we people can afford to eat. ”

As soon as Zhao Qingzao heard this, he knew that Grandma Niu had misunderstood, and immediately smiled: "Grandma, it's not that I'm greedy, it's that Brother Changting is a little uncomfortable, and he just found a doctor to prescribe medicine, but the medicine is too bitter, and he can't drink it, so I thought about it, get some candied fruit or rice candy or something, and change the taste." ”

When Grandma Niu heard this, her face relaxed, and then she exclaimed: "Changting is sick, what's the big deal?" ”

Zhao Qingzao didn't expect Grandma Niu to care so much about Shen Changting, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "It's okay, he said it was an old problem, and the doctor also said that it would be fine if he let him recuperate." ”

"It's okay." Grandma Niu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "But I'm afraid there is really no candied fruit in this village, this is still early for the New Year, and there is no sugar. ”

Grandma Niu's words made Zhao Qingzao very puzzled, and said a little unwillingly: "What about honey?" ”

"I don't know about this, but there is no one in the village who keeps bees, and I am afraid it will be difficult for you to find it." Grandma Niu shook her head.

Zhao Qingzao was disappointed when she heard this, Grandma Niu was very familiar with the village after all, she said no, it is estimated that there is really none, but I think about it, rural people don't have much income in the first place, who has these things, I'm afraid they have been sold long ago, and it is impossible to keep them for their own use.

After thinking about it, she finally said helplessly: "It seems that there is no other way, by the way, is Brother Chu at home?" ”

"He's busy in the back, you go find him." Grandma Niu didn't ask anything, and pointed in a direction.

Zhao Qingzao suddenly understood, knowing that Chu Xingshan was probably busy working in the field at this time, so she didn't stop, and rushed to Chu Xingshan's field all the way.

Chu Xingshan is very diligent, and his labor is also very good, a person not only manages the world left by his ancestors, but also reclaimed two pieces of wasteland, plus he can also hunt, as soon as autumn comes, he will go into the mountains to hunt, compared to other people's families, he has a very good life, at least much stronger than most people's families.
