Chapter Ninety-Five: Chrysanthemums in Bloom IV

"What are you doing with her, so that you don't have to dirty your mouth? My grandmother said that if you meet her, stay away, so as not to cause trouble. Liu Xiaofang was picking chrysanthemums while talking, calm and relaxed.

"You said it easily, our house is next to her wall, and you can hear her shouting every day, and you can't hide if you want to." Liu Yu muttered bitterly, she didn't want to get along with this annoying old lady Liu, but unfortunately her house was only separated by a wall from Mrs. Liu's house, and she couldn't hear it if she didn't want to. glanced at Wang Yunling, who was picking chrysanthemums in another field, and then said: "It's better to have the eldest girl and the second egg now, you don't know that you can hear her scolding before dawn, let the eldest girl and the second egg get up to cook and feed the pigs, yes, you have to find an excuse to beat a few times." ”

"Yes, this is thanks to Sister Ming, otherwise the two of them will suffer." Liu Lin also looked at Wang Yunling, who was seriously picking chrysanthemums, wearing new clothes, her face was ruddy, her hair was combed beautifully and neatly, and she was more energetic than before.

"You're afraid of what she's going to do, aren't you going to be next to her right away?" Liu Xiaofang looked at Liu Yu and quipped.

"What do you say, you damned girl? See that I don't tear your mouth. Liu Yu's quiet face turned red instantly, and she was about to fight, but unfortunately she was holding a basket in one hand and a chrysanthemum in the other, and Liu Yifang was far away, and she couldn't fight if she wanted to.

"Ouch, are you sorry? If you want to hit me, you come! Come on! Liu Xiaofang stood there and looked at the angry Liu Yu and smiled proudly.

"What's wrong with them?" Xiao Ming watched the interaction between the two, puzzled, and couldn't help but ask Liu Lin, who was watching the excitement on the side.

"You don't know, Liu Yu has been married since she was a child, and she will get married next year." Liu Lin was worried that Liu Yu was shy, so he deliberately spoke very quietly.

"Ah, there is such a thing, how old is Liu Yu, and he will get married next year." Xiao Ming was shocked.

"I'm twelve, I'm thirteen years old, I originally had to wait until fourteen to get married, but I heard that there was an only son over there, and I hoped that Liu Yu could marry earlier, so Sister-in-law Wang agreed." Liu Lin told what he knew, and the three of them were older than Liu Yu, but they were younger than Liu Lin.

"That's it!" Xiao Ming was stunned, she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, she was twelve years old, and she was about to be a wife when she was the same age, which is too exaggerated, the other party's only son, I'm afraid she wants to marry and give birth to the next generation as soon as possible.

In ancient times, women were married early, generally at the age of twelve or thirteen, and married after fifteen and fifteen, and the daughters who were good in the family and especially favored by their parents would be kept by their parents until sixteen or seventeen, but they were all old girls, and this situation was very rare.

In this era, there are no eighteen girls who have been married, and the wedding party is criticized and incomprehensible.

Fifteen or sixteen years old, in modern times, she is still a little girl who has just entered high school, but here she is married to another woman.

Similarly, women's childbirth is like passing through the ghost gate, there is no modern advanced medicine, medical equipment guarantee, and the delivery is a stable woman instead of a doctor, and the child born is easy to be infected and the survival rate is low.

Liu Yu, who is not yet fifteen years old, if she gets pregnant and gives birth, what kind of danger will there be, and what kind of consequences will it be, Xiao Ming doesn't dare to think about it anymore.

"But the conditions over there are very good, it seems to be a student." Liu Lin didn't pay attention to Xiao Ming's expression, and said to himself, with envy in his words that he hadn't even discovered.

Liu Fang has a sad heart, the three of them have been able to talk since they were children, they often play together when they have nothing to do, Liu Yu has always let her since she was a child, and she will help her do it when she has a job, and Liu Yu will get married by this time next year.

"Don't talk about this, you don't know, I followed my eldest brother to the city to deliver goods a few days ago, guess who I saw?" Liu Lin asked a few people excitedly.

"Who?" Liu Xiaofang was curious and no longer quarreled with Liu Yu.

"It's cousin Fushun." Liu Lin said, "I saw him walking on the street with a girl, and my brother also saw it, and I called him at the time, but unfortunately he didn't hear it." Liu Lin recalled the situation that day, the girl was not very old, dressed luxuriously, with a few subordinates, one held an umbrella for her, and the other two followed behind with things, like the daughter of a large family.

"Really! Who is that woman? Liu Yu was curious.

"How do I know?" Liu Lin was depressed, she greeted him, but he pretended not to hear.

"What's this! He was already working in the city, so it was not surprising to meet him. Liu Xiaofang said.

"You don't know, he went home the day before yesterday and left early the next morning." Liu Yu said.

"The basket is full, let's send it back." Liu Xiaofang said, stopping this boring topic.

After two days, with the help of Liu Lin and the others, the chrysanthemums in the field were picked, leaving the small flowers that had not bloomed, waiting for the next picking.

Each of the three of them went home happily with a basket of chrysanthemums and a jar of fruit wine sent by Xiao Ming in advance.

Looking at the rows of shelves under the eaves, ten dustpans of chrysanthemums were placed on each row of shelves, and the number was hundreds, which made Song smile and smile so much that he couldn't see his teeth.

~~

The carriage stopped at the gate of Guangji Hall, Xiao Ming got out of the carriage and saw Min Fangqi coming out of the medicine hall before he entered the door, and his entourage Sanzhu followed closely behind with the medicine box on his back, and helped the old man down the steps with one hand, and the two of them rushed forward step by step, as if they were going to go to the doctor.

"Senior brother, early." Xiao Ming greeted.

"Senior sister, you're here." Min Fangqi looked at Xiao Ming with great joy, and walked in front of Xiao Ming step by step.

"Senior brother is going to the doctor."

"Yes! The younger sister went together, but an official in the government was injured. Min Fangqi said and invited Xiao Ming to go with him.

"Okay." Xiao Ming readily agreed, and followed into the carriage without saying a word.

The carriage was already waiting at the intersection, and the person driving the carriage was actually an official in an official uniform.

Sanzhu took the initiative to sit in front of the carriage and did not follow up on the carriage, and there were two people in the carriage, Min Fangqi and Xiao Ming, and at this time Min Fangqi told Xiao Ming about the patient's situation.

"It was Mr. Zhou in the yamen who was injured when he was chasing the fugitive two days ago, and he didn't pay attention to it at the time, and only did a simple bandage, but he didn't expect that after two days, the wound was not only healed, but more serious."

"Wound infection." Xiao Ming said that this situation is very common, and the wound is not taken seriously, causing the injury to worsen.

"That's what my brother thinks too." Min Fangqi nodded.

The carriage drove out of the town at a rapid pace towards Pingcheng, and arrived at the Pingcheng Mansion half an hour later.

"Dr. Min, please." The little catcher who led the way quickly led Min Fangqi and his party into the mansion, turned around and shouted outside a small room.

"Brother Zhou, Dr. Min is here." As he spoke, he led the three of them straight into the room.

"Doctor Min, please, Zhou Zhutou is inside."
