Chapter Ninety-Two: The Hungry Woman

Xilin Village, shrouded in the sunset, is noisy with birds singing, and the leisure place is quiet and quiet. Lin Aqi was lying on a bamboo chair in the courtyard basking in the sun, and there was a commotion in front of him, causing the little lackeys to jump and bark.

"Little lackey!" Lin Aqi called, and the puppy immediately ran back.

When I got up and walked out of the courtyard gate, I found that someone was surrounding a girl who seemed to be seriously injured, pointing and pointing.

"What's going on?" Lin Aqi stepped forward curiously, and the second sister of the Zhao family saw her and beckoned to her.

"There's a fugitive here, come and see!"

Lin Aqi squeezed into the crowd, only to see that the person who came was in tattered clothes, dressed in only thin cotton clothes, and the material was also washed white and barely survived the winter, her face was white, although her face was gray, but looking at her face, she could still see that her skeleton foundation was good, and she should be a very beautiful woman.

The poor woman clutched her arms and closed her eyes, and it seemed that her arm was injured and she could not walk, so she fainted on the ground.

Xi Wenpo was carried by someone and rushed over: "What are you doing?" I can't stand your old bonesβ€”"

After taking a closer look at the man on the ground, Xi Wenpo pouted her lips with a face full of reluctance. How much money can I have to pay for medical bills?

"Help, save me......" The woman's voice was very small and hoarse, probably because she had not eaten in water for a long time.

Lin Shaxiang saw Lin Aqi in the crowd and nodded at her, and Lin Aqi ran over to pull him: "Master, this person is so pitiful, why don't we help her?" ”

Lin Shaxiang hesitated: "The origin is unknown, don't help easily." ”

"It's just a medical bill, don't worry." Lin Aqi smiled, "Didn't Master say that saving people is more difficult than ten thousand gold, and this kind of thing of helping others is fun, just do it!" ”

Lin Shaxiang couldn't resist her, nodded and smiled: "Okay, okay, my Archie is so kind, I'm ashamed of myself." ”

As he spoke, he went to dig out his pocket, and Lin Archie had already thrown away his private money: "Master, I have money, I'll go!" ”

"Eh-" Lin Shaxiang didn't have time to hold her, Lin Aqi had already stopped Xiwen Po who was leaving, and asked her to treat the man.

"Xi Wenpo, all her medical expenses are paid by me, you can rest assured."

Xiwen Pohu looked at her suspiciously: "Do you have money?" ”

Lin Archie nodded and shook the money bag in front of her: "Of course there is!" ”

"The cost of diagnosis and treatment is calculated separately." Xi Wenpo raised her eyes and slanted her eyebrows.

"No problem!" Lin Archie agreed.

Xi Wenpo had no worries, and immediately squatted down to look at the woman. The crowd of onlookers couldn't help but worry, can this be cured? Also, Lin Aqi is generous, but is it too much to pay to save strangers? If this woman is a fugitive from the court, wouldn't the Lin family have to suffer?

The more people think about it, the more outrageous it becomes, what was abducted and sold, what couldn't withstand the pressure of his family and married the stupid son of a rich businessman who ran out desperately to hide, and what family crime smuggled all the way in order to escape pursuit......

In short, there are all kinds of rumors, and Xi Wenpo can't calm down for a while when they quarrel.

"Shut up the old lady!" The old woman roared angrily, and a few feet of her body erupted with huge energy, which shocked Lin Aqi's ears.

There were more and more onlookers, but because of the current strange and silent atmosphere, the newcomers did not dare to speak loudly, and they were all quietly discussing.

The folks are so idle......

Lin Aqi thought silently, and it didn't take long to hear Xiwen Po say: "She's fine, she's just hungry, her arm should have fallen and sprained, and it's okay to call Dr. Hua from Qixiang Village to correct her bones." ”

"Hungry?" Seeing that her face was pale and frowned, her body was paralyzed and unresponsive, she was probably really hungry.

Although Xilin Village is remote and deserted, the villagers never lack hot food.

Immediately, someone brought a kettle nearby to feed the girl hot tea, and another enthusiast handed over a few pieces of hot soft cakes, and Xiwen Po broke them and fed them to her, but she didn't even have the strength to chew.

Lin Aqi remembered that she still had candied fruit on her body, and in front of everyone's eyes, the villagers saw her peel off the tin foil, and the fruit was handed to the woman's mouth.

Faced with the curious gaze of so many people, she didn't know how to react for a while.

The sweet scent of sugar in her mouth still didn't dissipate, and she blinked slowly.

"Where am I......" she struggled to get up, but her feet went limp and she sat down again.

Lin Aqi lightly pressed her shoulders with her fingers: "Don't be afraid, this is Xilin Village, Xixiang, we are all local residents, passing by and seeing you fainting, come forward to check." This is Xiwenpo, she has shown you, you are fine, don't talk for now, and then eat something. ”

"Yes, yes, don't be afraid, girl, just tell us if you have any difficulties!"

"Yes! None of us are bad people......"

Xie Ai looked at the circle of onlookers with curiosity and concern on their faces, and was afraid for no reason, and shook his body slightly, and suddenly relieved when he thought of his current situation.

She was already like this, and if they really wanted to do something, she couldn't help herself.

Lin Aqi curled the corners of her mouth at her, and pointed to the hot cake handed by Zhao Ermei, who was still holding in Xiwenpo's hand: "Can you chew this?" If you can't, eat a few more. ”

Lin Aqi took out a few more candied fruits, removed the tin foil and handed them to her lips, Xie Ai was embarrassed to swallow in his mouth, and the sweet and familiar taste echoed between his lips and teeth again, and Xie Ai's eyes were red.

How long has it been since you've eaten this flavored preserves?

Lin Aqi saw that her expression was wrong, and hurriedly comforted: "I still have it, you eat slowly." ”

This candied fruit is not cheap, everyone looked at Lin Shaxiang with complicated expressions, he is really generous! treats the only apprentice so generously, it is estimated that the little money he uses to buy candied fruit for the little apprentice to eat, right?

Zhao Ermei was also quite shocked, Lin Aqi was willing to give the candied fruit to strangers to eat, and she had never seen her treat herself so well, and her heart was a little sour for a while.

Lin Shaxiang watched the apprentice's every move, and he couldn't say anything in his heart. The disciple is so kind and righteous, he is really like her father. He didn't know where this candied fruit came from, and it was still good to come to Archie to inherit Sanniang's craftsmanship, at least he didn't have to worry about being hungry when he went out.

Thinking like this, he nodded in satisfaction, and the onlookers were even more surprised, Lin Shaxiang seemed to agree with Lin Aqi's method of sharing.

Just when everyone was thinking differently and speculating, the strange woman got up and knelt on the ground, and took a long breath of relief before saying to everyone: "Please rest assured, I am not a wicked person, but I was deceived and went the wrong way and strayed into Xilin Village, thank you all today." ”

She saluted everyone, the villagers were used to being comfortable on weekdays, and they were caught off guard by a lame salute, and Lin Aqi and Xiwenpo helped her up.

After standing like this, everyone found out that she was quite tall, not like a southerner.

"This mother-in-law, thank you very much, I don't know how much the consultation fee is? I'll pay you. ”

As he spoke, he touched his waist, but everyone saw that it was empty, and there was nothing outside of him. Xie Ai also seemed to have just reacted to what had happened, and his face froze.

Fortunately, Xiwenpo didn't bother much: "I didn't prescribe medicine, so I just asked for a normal consultation, and I would like to charge you ten cents." ”

This is the reason why everyone doesn't like to invite Xi Wenpo, just asking for a consultation costs ten yuan, and asking for a medical fee costs dozens of yuan.

Xie Ai's face was embarrassed and uneasy, and he didn't know where to put his fingers.

Lin Aqi generously took out a few coins from his arms and put them in the hands of Xiwenpo.

"Sister, don't be polite, this money is nothing to me, it's fate to know my sister today, why don't you go to my house to rest for a while?"

Xie Ai was so moved that he didn't know what to say, he leaned over again and thanked everyone, and followed Lin Aqi to the fence wall of the Lin family not far away.

Lin Aqi took her dirty hand, didn't mind at all, and smoothed the hem of her clothes with hay. Lin Shaxiang smiled and followed behind, although the others were curious, it was not easy to follow them anymore.

A girl's family got lost and ran to Xilin Village for some reason, which must have experienced unknown hardships and difficulties, and sometimes it was inconvenient to communicate with outsiders.

The little lackey saw that there was a new guest, Wang Wang ran over with his little hooves, Xie Ai was startled, and saw that the little dog just stayed beside Lin Aqi obediently before he pressed his nervousness.

"Little lackey, it doesn't bite."

"I'm a little afraid of dogs." Xie Ai bit his lip, as if to ease the atmosphere, and said, "This name is very chic. ”

Lin Aqi laughed and pulled her into the house quickly.

She pulled out a few new clothes from the closet in the room: "They are all never worn, and they are a little long, I haven't changed them, just right for your size." ”

Lin Archie gestured at her twice and nodded in satisfaction.

Xie Ai waved his hand and shook his head: "No, no, no, I am already very grateful for you to help me, how can I use you and other things again?" ”

Lin Aqi pouted: "But you don't like this recipe?" ”

"Not either!" Xie Ai gritted her teeth in a hurry, it is rare for people in the countryside to have a new dress all year round, if she wears it, how can she wear it again? So he repeatedly refused.

Lin Aqi was the most annoyed by the ink, and after dividing five by two, he put the new clothes on her: "My sister is coming back soon, and she will definitely bring me updated materials at that time, so I don't lack these clothes, so you can accept them with confidence." ”

Lin Shaxiang's shouting came from outside the door: "Archie, take the guests out for tea and snacks." ”

Xie Ai sat down at the table after cleaning his hands and face, looking at the delicious food on this large table, he realized that what Lin Aqi said was true.

This family is hospitable, not greedy for small profits, and at first he was hesitant to mind whether they coveted their share of the thing, but now it is all gone.

"This is the golden fruit, which was sent back by my sister, it is very sweet, you can taste it - this is honey and preserved meat, but it is delicious, and this, hot rose cake ......"

These are not affordable for an ordinary family, just a golden fruit costs ten cents, not to mention the well-processed and time-consuming dried meat.

After Xie Ai looked at them one by one, he thanked him gratefully, and finally just picked up a bun and took a few bites, relaxed, and his mood was as comfortable as the clouds on the horizon.
