224. Chapter 68 (1)
The sky was just getting dark, and the clouds were like fairies' scattered tulle sleeves brushing above the mountainside.
Immersed in the early morning, Niujia Village is very quiet, on the way out of the village, there are occasional woodcutters and hunters walking together, with their footsteps, the sunlight gradually shows a red smiling face from the end of the mountain, and the village also slowly begins to have a noise of human voices.
Every house, the smoke curling, is a busy scene.
Du Yunjin held a large sieve and stood in the yard sprinkling chicken food. This group of chickens was sent by Niu's second sister-in-law, and it was said that they were almost ready to eat when they were fed to the Spring Festival.
The originally overgrown land in the yard was also cleaned up by Niu Er, and she asked the village woman for some seeds, which had been sown, and there should be green vegetables coming out soon.
After three or four months in the village, she had gradually faded from her original solemn atmosphere, and at first glance she looked about the same as other village women. The bun on her head is fixed with a cheap bamboo hairpin, and then she is wrapped in a coarse cloth turban at will, and the clothes on her body are also old clothes of coarse cloth, which were also given to her by Niu's second sister-in-law.
But on closer inspection, her feeding gestures were still very rusty, and the vegetable field she was expecting was still a pile of loess, with no sign of germination. She thought that it was probably the reason for the solar terms, but the dog next door who sowed the seeds with her was a small green bud fluttering in the wind, so proud!
Su Jingchen once stood at the fence of the yard, looking at the vegetable patch next door, and told her sadly not to waste the seeds anymore, she just didn't have that kind of life to grow vegetables. If you want to eat vegetables, you can just go to the next door to pick them, why bother yourself so much.
Speaking of Su Jingchen, Du Yunjin was annoyed. Her vegetable plot did not improve, but Su Jingchen quickly became prosperous in Niujia Village, and almost everyone in the village knew this kind-hearted Dr. Su. Speaking from the heart, Su Jingchen's craftsmanship is still good, not to mention that most of the people in the village are small problems, where can it be difficult to find a famous medical immortal! Therefore, Su Jingchen has won the heartfelt love of the majority of villagers, if their family is short of anything, someone will automatically send it to the door the next day, so he will be ashamed to let Du Yunjin rest more and not be so tired.
The more Du Yunjin thought about it, the more angry she became, and she simply squatted on the ground that was still bare, she didn't believe that a person like her who could dance with a spear couldn't grow a vegetable!
But......
If Ling Dan was here, it would have been planted a long time ago.
At the same level as her cooking skills, there is also her cooking skills. After Su Jingchen held back and ate a few meals, he leaned against the wall and vomited in a corner.
"Ah Jin, you are more poisonous than poison!"
With a dark face, she accepted Su Jingchen's words with praise. Then I practiced hard, and then practiced hard, and then practiced hard, but unfortunately it had little effect.
When Su Jingchen, who vomited dimly, went out the next day, her legs trembled incessantly, and the second sister-in-law of Niu, who was about to give birth at full term, came over, took her hand, and said earnestly: "Sister, sister-in-law, I am also from here, and I also know that young people are strong-blooded, but everything must be moderate, you squeezed Dr. Su dry so quickly, how can you live in the future." ”
Du Yunjin's face couldn't be darker, and he didn't toss Su Jingchen's stomach again that night. However, their recipes have become boiled vegetables, boiled tofu and other boiled series.
Su Jingchen didn't vomit anymore and his legs were weak, but his face was vegetable, and he looked malnourished. When the villagers saw it, they thought that they didn't pay for medical treatment, so Dr. Su's family was so poor that they felt too reluctant to go, so they hung a pheasant and a hare on the fence of Su's yard every once in a while.
Du Yunjin had no choice but to give full play to his wilderness survival skills, set up a small bonfire in the yard, and roasted all the meat without any seasonings in a very emotional way.
This is her only specialty dish in addition to the boiled series. In fact, she can't be blamed, Du Bocheng only taught her to lead troops to fight, while Qing Ruofeng only taught her to make trouble everywhere and cause trouble. Even this only barbecue series was once trapped in the desert and taught by a fat firehead soldier. Then she found that she was particularly talented in this area, and she could make it especially delicious even in a harsh environment without any seasoning.
In her daze, the sun slowly crawled right in the middle of the sky. The people on the hill began to descend one after another, and some hunters deliberately passed by their yards and hung a fat hare on the fence.
Su Jingchen would go up the mountain every two days to collect medicine, sometimes alone, sometimes with these Orion woodcutters.
Today, Su Jingchen went up the mountain with Niu Er, and Du Yunjin stood on tiptoe in front of the gate of the courtyard and looked at the way down the mountain. Niu Er seemed to have a great harvest today, and he walked on the road carrying the firewood that was bent and flattened.
"Second Brother Niu." Du Yunjin beckoned to him with a smile, but he didn't see Su Jingchen behind him. "Where's the dust? Why didn't I come back with you? ”
Niu Er stopped and said to her suspiciously, "Hasn't Dr. Su come back yet?" ”
Du Yunjin was asked inexplicably, and said, "Didn't Jingchen go up the mountain with you in the morning?" ”
Niu Er seemed to sense that something was wrong, put down the firewood, and explained to her, "It's right that Doctor Su went up the mountain with me this morning, but almost two hours ago he said that his medicine was full and he went down the mountain first. ”
"Two hours ago, ......" Du Yunjin muttered these words, and a strong uneasiness suddenly appeared in his heart. It only takes one hour at most to go down the mountain and walk this road, which is equivalent to Su Jingchen starting to descend the mountain three hours ago, but now there is no one to see.
Could something be wrong? Although he is a skilled healer, he is still a weak scholar with no restraints. In case something happens, Du Yunjin suddenly has a flash of inspiration, could it be that he was arrested by that group of people?
If it fell into the hands of that group of people, she couldn't think about what would happen.
She leaned against the doorrail and sat limply on the threshold.
"Sister-in-law of the Su family, don't be like this." Seeing her dejected appearance, Niu Er hurriedly shouted: "Although there are some wild beasts on this mountain, the hillside we went to is not often hurting people. Sister-in-law of the Su family, don't worry, I'll find someone and go up the mountain to find Dr. Su together, it's possible that I'm just lost. ”
Du Yunjin heard him say that, but the uneasiness in his heart did not dissipate. Su Jingchen can't be caught by that group of people, what kind of fate will a prince who cheats to death, she really doesn't dare to think about it, especially Xiao Yu, who can do it to anyone.
Niu Er pulled his throat, first called out the dog next door, explained that he was optimistic about the dog, and then hurriedly ran towards other houses.
After a while, he gathered more than 20 young strong men, brought a lot of guys, and prepared to go up the mountain to rescue Su Jingchen.
"I'll go too." Du Yunjin suddenly grabbed his trouser legs, and said fragile and firmly: "I'm going to find him too." ”
"It's dangerous in the mountains, sister-in-law of the Su family, you just wait for news at home." The dog wanted to break her hand, and if there really was some fierce beast on the mountain, they would not be able to protect her.
"No, I'm going to know for sure." Du Yunjin refused to back down at all, she just wanted to find Su Jingchen as much as possible, no matter where he was. At this time, she felt his importance, without him by her side, it always seemed empty, and her heart was also empty and unbearable.
"Sister-in-law of the Su family......" The dog looked at Du Yunjin in embarrassment, not knowing how to persuade her to give up.
"Let's go." Niu Er looked at her and beckoned everyone to walk towards the way up the mountain. "Let's go with the sister-in-law of the Su family, are we still afraid that so many of our big men won't be able to protect a woman?"
His words aroused the pride of other people, and Su Jingchen had some weight in the hearts of these people, so he protected Du Yunjin in the crowd and walked towards the mountain.
Everyone was the first to find the place where Su Jingchen and Niu Er were separated, it was an open meadow, the slope was relatively gentle, and there was no danger. Everyone was still not at ease, so they lowered their heads and searched carefully, and there was indeed no shadow of Su Jingchen.
"This ......" looked at the grassy hillside, and everyone looked at Niu Er, who was in the lead.
"Let's go our separate ways," Niu Er looked at the sky and cautiously instructed, "Come back here before sunset." A few of you go to the woods over there, and a few of you continue to look up the meadow, and a few of you go to the other side of the road. ”
"Sister-in-law of the Su family, you can go over there with us."
Under Niu Er's command, everyone quickly divided into several groups, each looking around in a different direction.
"Sister-in-law of the Su family, Dr. Su is a good person, he will definitely be fine." The dog was afraid that Du Yunjin wouldn't be able to think about it, and he was enlightening her all the way.
She nodded at him, knowing his kindness. The mountains here are vast, and it is not so easy to find a person who has disappeared for no reason. However, there was no trace of fighting and struggling along the way, and it seemed that Su Jingchen did not meet that group of people.
But if he hadn't met that group of people, what had he encountered? Du Yunjin's face gradually turned pale, if it wasn't for the group of people, Su Jingchen must have encountered some fierce beast, if this is the case, it will really be more than lucky.
How could he have an accident so lightly? He said okay, he would wait for her all the time, and wait for her to be his real lady. She hadn't even agreed, so how could he break his promise?
"Shocking ......," she called out the man's name in a heart-rending voice, and all that was echoed in her response was the mountain wind that echoed back and forth.
It was empty, there was no figure of Su Jingchen, and there was no answer from Su Jingchen.
In such moments, she dared to face up to the true intentions she had been evading. If it weren't for Su Jingchen, how would she have lived? Without Su Jingchen, she couldn't imagine such a scene.
So, come back quickly, as long as you can come back, I can promise you anything, as long as you can come back safely.
