The handlebar Lao Yu is also a person with children, knowing that Hua Rong's condition is dangerous, he is very anxious, and the car is fast and stable.

When he arrived at the medical hall, he picked up Hua Rong and trotted, and Hua Ling followed closely behind.

The flower trees and vines were also going in, Xia Qingyun stopped them and said, "There are a lot of people in the medical hall, it will be in the way for you to go in, stay here and wait." ”

Hua Shu bit his lip and nodded, pulling Hua Vine to sit on the steps outside the medical hall.

When Xia Qingyun entered, he saw that Hua Rong's forehead, behind her ears, and between her eyebrows, there were a few bright silver needles in her heart, her face had just faded from flushing, and her body was still trembling slightly.

The thin Hua Ling knelt beside the sickbed, tore off the gray cloth strip from her sleeve, and gently wiped the beads of sweat from her little sister's forehead. Looking at Sister Hualing, she couldn't help but recall the situation when she had just been reborn into the Xia family, and a burst of sourness and pity welled up in her heart.

Lao Langzhong squinted his eyes for Hua Rong's vein, and only said after a while: "Thanks to the timely delivery, otherwise this little life would not have been saved." ”

"Excuse me, sir, what is this child's disease?" Xia Qingyun asked.

Hua Ling said that their hometown was flooded, and usually a big disaster is followed by a big epidemic, and she is worried that Hua Rong is infected with the epidemic.

Lao Langzhong said: "Infected with wind and cold, and not treated in time, caused a high fever and became delirious. I've already applied the needle, and I'm going to watch for another two hours. If the condition does not recur, a few more pairs of decoction can be prescribed and he will be cured in a few days. ”

Xia Qingyun relieved his heart at this time.

Taking advantage of this time, she took the Hua family siblings to the shop in the town to buy two sets of clothes and shoes, and bought them some rice balls and pickles.

When they finished devouring it, Xia Qingyun called the three Hualing sisters and brothers, and Zhengse asked, "Are you willing to work for me?" I will pay you monthly according to your schedule. ”

Hua Ling and Hua Shu were stunned, they were still children after all, and their sister was very sick, so they thought of selling themselves for money in a hurry, but they didn't think about what happened after that.

The two of them met their heads and muttered quietly for a while, Hua Ling stared at Xia Qingyun and asked, "Even me and my younger siblings, you want it?" Do you care about food and housing? ”

Xia Qingyun nodded.

Hua Ling said again: "If we are to be thieves, then we won't do it!" ”

"Did someone teach you to be a thief?" Xia Qingyun asked rhetorically.

Hua Shu replied on the side: "On the way to escape the famine, a bad guy lied to us and said that he would take in the four of us. Later, they forced us to steal things as if we were asking for food, and if we didn't, they would cut off our hands and feet. We managed to escape. ”

After hearing these words, and looking at the three dirty little faces of the Hua family's sisters and brothers, and their thin and thin bodies, Xia Qingyun felt that his heart was squeezed fiercely by one hand.

"So, you're going to take us all away so that we can be thieves?" Hua Ling asked.

Xia Qingyun replied seriously: "Of course not." I grow tea trees at home, and I also have two workshops, so you can go up to the mountains to pick tea, or you can do things like cleaning the courtyard. But you can't be lazy, if you're lazy, you'll be deducted from your salary. Would you like to go? ”

Hua Ling and Hua Shu muttered together, and the four-year-old Hua Teng didn't understand what was going on, so he pulled the corner of his brother's clothes and stood there without speaking.

"Alright, let's go!" Hua Ling said loudly.

At dusk, the carriage pulled Xia Qingyun and the four sisters and brothers of the Hua family back to Beixi Village.

Dad was waiting at the gate of the courtyard early, and saw a few children jumping out of the carriage behind Xia Qingyun, and then saw the handlebar-style Lao Yu holding out the sleeping Hua Rong from the carriage, and hurriedly went over to ask what was going on.

"Dad, come into the house and say, this kid has a high fever." Xia Qingyun helped Lao Yu push open the door and asked him to put Hua Rong on the bed.

He also asked Lao Yu to call his mother back when he went to the workshop, and by the way, he called two rough mothers-in-law to come over and boil hot water and medicine.

After a busy job, I helped the Hua family sisters and brothers take a bath and put on new clothes, the Hua family sisters and brothers looked white-skinned, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a small nose slightly upturned, and a small pear vortex at the corner of the mouth when they smiled, which was very cute.

The mother immediately liked these children, she pulled the three sisters and brothers of the Hua family down, and said with a smile: "Sister and brother twins are rare, but coincidentally, there is a pair of brother and sister twins below them." Look at how handsome these eyebrows are! ”

Hua Ling was stared at embarrassed, lowered her head and twisted the corners of her clothes with her hands.

Hua Shu felt that the aunt in front of her had a kind face and spoke kindly, and asked boldly: "Auntie, your family looks very poor, why does my sister want to bring us back?" ”

Qiu Yun said on the side: "My family's new house has not been built yet. What about you, you look like thin skin and tender meat, how do you come out to ask for rice? ”

Hua Shu scratched the back of his head, not knowing how to answer, and turned his head to look at his sister Hua Ling.

Hua Ling was lowering her head, glancing at the side of the bed out of the corner of her eyes, Xia Qingyun was sitting on the edge of the bed with a bowl of medicine, and fed Hua Rong a small sip. Although Hua Rong was the youngest, she was very sensible and drank the bowl of bitter medicine soup without crying or making trouble.

She felt in her heart that this sister's family was really good to them, so she said 1510: "Auntie, my family is in Yuzhou City, Southwest Province, and my father is on an errand in the yamen of the city. My father and mother were also swept away by the water, and many people died in the city, so we had to follow the people who fled the famine. Later, when we were forced to steal something, we didn't want to, so we ran out secretly. All the way to get here. ”

The mother took her and stroked her hair lovingly, "Poor child, it's a shame to meet your sister Qingyun, let's live here in the future, and when you grow up in a few years, go back to the southwest to look for it, maybe your father and mother are still alive." ”

Hua Ling and Hua Shu's eyes lit up when they heard their mother's words, "Really? ”

The mother smiled bitterly: "I also guessed." Anyway, you have to take care of it, you see, there are younger brothers and sisters who want you to take care of it. ”

Hua Ling and Hua Shu nodded sensibly.

The children were together and quickly got acquainted.

Hua Yun liked the little flower vine the most, led him and the flower tree to watch all over the yard, and plucked a lot of cattail grass to weave ducks for him to play with.

Qiuyun accompanied Hua Ling to sit on the edge of the bed and guard Hua Rong. After Hua Rong drank the medicine, she sweated a lot and fell asleep again.

After dinner, my father brought a few planks and newly bought bedding from the new house, and made a temporary bed in the wooden house.

Xia Qingyun wanted to ask his father and mother to go to the Ruyi Treasure Pavilion to rest, but his father said that he would get up at night, for fear of polluting the place, so he refused to go, so Xia Qingyun had to let him.

After a busy day, everyone quickly fell asleep.

Before dawn the next day, the door of the wooden house was quietly pushed open, and three little heads poked out to look at it, creeping out of the crack in the door.

"Sister! Sister! Xia Qingyun was woken up by her sister Qiuyun.

"Sister, it's not good, the Hua family sister and brother are gone!" Xia Qiuyun sat on the bed and pointed to the empty wooden board on the ground by the corner of the wall and said.

Xia Qingyun rubbed his eyes, looked at them carefully, got out of bed and walked to him, touched the quilt, turned around and whispered, "What's the fuss, Hua Rong is still asleep here." ”

She put on her clothes and went out into the courtyard to inspect it. I turned around several times in front of the house and behind the house, but I didn't see the shadows of the three sisters and brothers. Where did they go?

There were a few rows of messy footprints on the land in the yard, and Xia Qingyun followed the footprints out of the yard, looking at the direction of the footprints to the back mountain. Could it be that Hua Ling and they really threw down Hua Rong and ran away?

She followed the footprints and walked towards the back mountain, walked for more than two miles, and saw a few small figures shaking on the hillside from a distance, could it be the Hua family sisters and brothers?

Quietly walked in, only to see Hua Ling with flower trees and vines, in a relatively gentle place on the hillside, there was a decent practice of boxing!

It can be seen from their posture of one move and one style, one punch and one kick, that they have learned it since childhood, and even the smallest flower vine can firmly tie the horse step.

Xia Qingyun didn't alarm them, turned around and walked down the mountain.

"Found it?" The mother asked anxiously. She likes and feels sorry for these children from the bottom of her heart. Hua Ling Hua Tree is the largest, but only nine years old, Hua Rong and Hua Teng are just four years old, you can imagine how much suffering these children have suffered along the way when they crawl out of the pile of dead people.

"I've found it, and I'm practicing boxing in the mountains." Xia Qingyun said with a smile, "I didn't call them, I guess I'll be back in a while." ”

"Yo, such a young child started boxing?" Mother was a little surprised.

"Auntie, my father and mother said that the fists do not leave the hands, the music does not leave the mouth, and they have to practice every day." A little girl's voice came from the doorway.

"Oops, why did you kid get up!" The mother ran over and picked up Xiao Hua Rong and pasted the forehead of the decal Rong with her forehead, "Well, don't burn it, Lang Zhong's Fang Zi is really in charge." ”

"Auntie, let me down, I'm going to find my brothers and sisters to practice boxing together." Little Blossom writhed restlessly.

The mother walked towards the house with Hua Rong in her arms, coaxing her as she walked: "Hua Rong is not well yet, so your brothers and sisters didn't call you." Well, Auntie will give you the medicine, and when you are all right, then go with them."

Half an hour later, the Hua Ling sisters and brothers returned to the courtyard. The three sisters and brothers have great eyesight, Hua Ling picked up a broom and swept the yard, Hua Shu took a bucket and wanted to carry water, and Xiaohua Teng sat on the bench in a regular manner, watching his brother and sister work.

Xia family, you look at me, I look at you, and they all have a smile on their faces.

These kids are so sensible and cute.

Although the sister and brother fled all the way to ask for food, their small bodies looked very thin, but their faces were not very bad, and their eyes were very bright. From the recovery of Xiaohua Rong, it can be seen that the physical essence of these children is excellent. This may be inseparable from their daily early wake-up practice.

Hua Ling and Hua Shu worked hard, and Xia Qingyun didn't stop them. She thinks that they are doing the right thing, people should be diligent, and good habits are formed from childhood.

After breakfast, Xia Qingyun plans to go to the mountain to see the newly opened ten acres of tea garden, if you follow the line, you can start the second phase of seedling transplantation tomorrow, and the area of Qingyun tea garden will be doubled! Moistened by the Seven Stars Spring Water in the Rooiboo Treasure Pavilion, each of the tea saplings transplanted to the mountain grows very strong.

On an early summer morning, the mountain air was fresh and moist, and the grass still had strings of dew on it, and she walked briskly along the mountain path.

Suddenly, a figure flashed out from behind the big tree on the side of the road, blocking Xia Qingyun.
