Erya's brother was dipping his chopsticks in water and smearing it on the chapped lips of the lying man, when he saw Xia Yang coming in, he put down the water bowl and greeted him.

"Lord's house, we don't have anything of value, there is some food here, give it to the master's family, as if we used the master's firewood money."

Xia Yang was afraid that the master's family would not accept it and would not be able to complete the task assigned by the master, so he made an excuse.

"This can't be helped," waved his hands, and said, "We are used to being poor, and we don't have anything to eat to entertain you, and we can't stand it anymore, and it will be too unauthentic to accept your things again." Pushing Xia Yang and walking out.

There are really such honest people in the world.

"Lord," Xia Yang froze his body, put down the things in his hand, and said: "We have a lot of food, we will go out of the mountain tomorrow, and we don't have to cook by ourselves when we get outside, and we will throw it away by the way, so if you can see it, you will accept it, if you can't look at it, we will throw it on the road tomorrow, maybe there will be someone who is rare." ”

"Oh?" Erya's brother looked puzzled, this is rice noodles, can you still throw it away?

"Then stay, but I'll invite you to dinner tonight." With rice noodles, you have the confidence to speak.

"Thank you, Lord." Xia Yang pouted, we have already done it, besides, these rice noodles were originally ours, you have done it, say that you are inviting us, or forget it.

"We have done a good job, but we have used a lot of firewood from the main family, and the main family can be counted as silver, and we will not treat the main family badly."

"What kind of silver is it, it's just a gesture, and when you go out, it's firewood, and where is it worth any silver. It's no longer appropriate to accept your rice and noodles, and if you accept your silver, I don't have to mix it up in this area. ”

It turned out that this person's name was Zhang Tiedan.

"I will take my leave according to the Lord's house." Xia Yang left, Zhang Tiedan muttered a thousand thanks in the back, turned around, and went to the inner room to see the patient on the kang.

The people on the kang looked much more stable than when they came in the morning, and their breathing sounded much smoother, even the breath they exhaled did not have the previous fishy smell.

"Erya, Erya." Zhang Tiedan stood at the door and called Erya.

It would be a waste to light such a bright candle and do nothing.

The guests are afraid that they have not eaten yet, with rice noodles, why not let Erya make some noodle soup, in the evening, drink a few to satisfy hunger, and warm.

"Brother," Erya stuffed a mouthful of osmanthus cake, went out of the west wing, saw his brother standing at the door, and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"There are some rice noodles here, you take them to make some noodle soup for the two of you, and by the way, we also use some, we haven't drunk it for several years, and today while there are guests, we will also open meat." Zhang Tiedan's face was full of smiles, as if tonight was Chinese New Year's Eve, and tomorrow was the New Year.

"By the way, put the mountain leeks we picked, fragrant, so that the guests can also taste it." Zhang Tiedan seemed to be a general commanding thousands of troops, calm and comfortable.

"Where did so much rice and noodles come from? Didn't you bring it from a guest in the front yard? "As smart as Erya, I immediately thought that I could have noodle soup tonight, all because of these guests.

Just now in the West Chamber, the guest's sister-in-law insisted on stuffing her with a lot of food, and she grew so big that she had never seen it.

Now my brother asked him to make some noodle soup for the guests, and he said, "Do it immediately, it will be fragrant." ”

Jiang Ziyan ate some snacks in the west wing, suppressed the hunger in his stomach, and drank some hot water, feeling a little more comfortable.

These treasures can really be consumed.

Nangong Hao was peeling chestnuts while thinking about the ring.

Who is lying on the kang in the main house, is this ring his own, or is it given to him by the king of Northern Xinjiang, asking him to do something.

Jiang Ziyan saw that Nangong Hao was absent-minded, and deliberately bit Nangong Hao's finger when Nangong Hao put the chestnuts in her mouth.

"Yan'er doesn't want to eat human flesh?" Nangong Hao grinned in pain.

The finger bit into Jiang Ziyan's mouth, and the initiator let go of his mouth, pretending to be innocent, and said, "I was distracted just now, I'm sorry, why didn't you remind me?" ”

Haha, the little daughter-in-law has the ability to beat a rake, and she still likes the little daughter-in-law like this.

"Yan'er, are you sure the medicine you gave that person can save that person's life?" Nangong Hao didn't care about the tooth marks left by Jiang Ziyan on his hands, and went straight to the point.

Oh, I was thinking about that.

"I'm not sure, why don't we go over and see now, if it's the right thing, it should work now."

Jiang Ziyan also wanted to see if these antidote drugs were used in this world and had the same effect as in modern times.

"There's a cigarette." Nangong Hao stood up and walked out with Jiang Ziyan in his arms.

Jiang Ziyan turned around and said, "Don't blow out the candles?" ”

Nangong Hao turned around, a palm wind passed, and the candle went out.

Zhang Tiedan was sitting on the kang, looking at the man with his eyes, when would he wake up.

Listening to the boss's woman, this person has been poisoned for a long time and has invaded the bone marrow, and if you want to wake up, I am afraid it will take some time.

I need to go out to find food, and Erya is a girl, so I can take care of the family and can't take care of the outside, it's really difficult.

"Lord, how is the patient now?" Nangong Hao asked when he came in.

"Guest officer, come here." Zhang Tiedan stood up and made room so that Nangong Hao and his wife could see the face of the patient on the bed.

Nangong Hao let Jiang Ziyan to the front, he was not as good as the little daughter-in-law's little finger on this, or the little daughter-in-law had the right to speak.

Jiang Ziyan motioned to Nangong Hao to turn the person over, and saw that the wound that had been bandaged earlier had oozing blood, so he asked Zhang Tiedan to fetch some clean water again.

When Zhang Tiedan went out, Jiang Ziyan summoned small scissors from the small clinic, cut off the blood cloth on the wound, squeezed it near the wound for a while, and summoned iodophor from the small clinic to disinfect the wound, sprinkle it with medicinal powder, and bandage it neatly.

The movement is smooth and fast.

After doing all this, Nangong Hao used his fingertips to help her wipe the sweat beads from her forehead.

The little daughter-in-law's magic weapon has everything in it, and she doesn't use it in front of the head of the family, because she doesn't want to swagger in front of people.

The humble Zhang Tiedan came in with hot water, and was stunned when he saw that Jiang Ziyan had already taken care of everything.

Is this clear water still useful?

Nangong Hao took the basin of water, put it aside, and helped Jiang Ziyan roll up his cuffs.

I can't deal with the wound myself, but I am very patient to help my little daughter-in-law do something.

"Noodle soup is here!" Er Ya shouted, opened the door with her feet, and four bowls of noodle soup were brought in on the tray.

The fragrance is coming to the face, what kind of condiment is this?

Foodie Jiang Ziyan, a pair of eyes immediately grew on his wrists.

The two girls were neatly arranged, put the chopsticks, and put a plate of shredded pickles in the middle.

"Let's try this girl's craft, I haven't done this work in a long time." Erya said, come over to help Jiang Ziyan.

Nangong Hao stared coldly, how could this little girl know how to rob the king's patent.

Erya didn't have the slightest sense of being disliked, and thought about going to her side with Jiang Ziyan in her arms.

Nangong Hao didn't say anything, came to the table, directly put Jiang Ziyan on the stool, and sat next to him.

Erya took a look, I had never seen such a protective wife.

walked to the other side and sat down, and said, "Little sister-in-law, eat slowly, there is still in the pot." ”

"Thank you, Erya, this tastes so good." Jiang Ziyan closed his eyes and enjoyed the aroma of the food.

Zhang Tiedan muttered beside him: "Thank you, these white noodles are still brought by you, if I hadn't borrowed your things, I, Zhang Tiedan, would have to entertain you with wild vegetables tonight." ”

"Oh." Jiang Ziyan took a noodle and put it in his mouth.

The milk is soft and smooth, and it melts in the mouth, I don't know how Erya does it.

"Looking at your residence, it seems that it is not a poor family, how can there be no overnight food?" Jiang Ziyan's eyes were on eating, which did not affect his curiosity.

"The guest officer doesn't know that in the early years, in addition to the income from farming, we could also go into the mountains to hunt and collect medicines, and in addition to paying taxes, there was a surplus for a year." Speaking of the past, Zhang Tiedan's face glowed red, and his voice was much higher.

"These houses were built by my parents' generation when my brother and sister were young." Zhang Tiedan sighed and put down his chopsticks.

"More than ten years ago, the government closed the mountain, and the people in our area had no way to live." After saying that, he shook his head.

Nangong Hao frowned.

Although Nangong Hao has been fighting abroad all the year round, some major decisions of the imperial court are still known.

It's like a large-scale closure of mountains, blocking the people's way of life, and such a decision has never been made by the imperial court.

"Oh," Nangong Hao also put down his chopsticks and said, "May I ask the master, can you remember what year the mountain was closed?" ”

Jiang Ziyan looked over.

Haozi never talks casually with people, could it be that there is something wrong with this mountain?

Seeing that the guests asked, Zhang Tiedan sat down to show respect for the guests, thought about it, and said: "It was probably during the first year of Qingyuan, when I was just five years old, my father and mother built this house, and I originally planned to wait for me to marry my daughter-in-law, so I lived in the outer courtyard, and their old couple and grandchildren lived in the backyard. Alas, it didn't work out ....... ”

Zhang Tiedan said, maybe he thought of something, with tears in his eyes, he didn't say any more, picked up the bowl, and took a sip of soup.

"Where's your father? Moved somewhere else? Jiang Ziyan was curious, after coming for so long, I didn't see the old man, this is to go somewhere else to make a living, leaving a pair of children to stay at home?

It doesn't seem to make sense.

"My mom and dad were gone when I was very young." Erya's tears flowed out directly.

"Isn't it bad for the plague? Or has something changed? Jiang Ziyan did not leave the bank in three sentences, and pulled Erya's father and mother to the plague.

"Alas," Zhang Tiedan sighed again, and said, "If it is really a plague, it can still be a corpse." Now there is no one alive, and no corpse is dead. ”

This fragrant noodle soup now tastes different in your mouth.

"The head of the family might as well say it, we will go south and north, maybe we will meet." Nangong Hao's kindness cares about these trivial things.

Maybe it was because I was addicted to sorting out cases in Jingzhao Mansion a few days ago, and I actually wanted to give Zhang Tiedan to find my father.

This kind of search is the most laborious and thankless work.

"Really? Then thank you, guest officer. Zhang Tiedan stood up and bowed.
