Chapter 20: The lamp runs out

He looked forward to the Yu family day and night being a big official, so that the glory of the ancestors would be glorious, and among the descendants of the Yu family, only Yu Qiyu was the material, and he had won the scenery of Xiao Sanyuan, so that Yu Ruhai easily refused to give up.

Yu Jiao naturally wanted to help Yu Qizhen take care of his body, which could be regarded as repaying him for his previous kindness.

"You can't know until you have a pulse."

As soon as Yu Jiao's words fell, Yu Ruhai shouted outside angrily, "Fifth brother, fifth brother!" ”

After a few sounds, Yu Qiyu came to the hall, Yu Ruhai said, "Let Meng Yatou give you a pulse." ”

The old lady in the house heard the movement and walked out of the back room.

Yu Qijiao glanced at Meng Yujiao, sat down on the stool, and stretched out his thin and white wrists.

Yu Jiao put her finger on his wrist, and there was no movement for a long time, Yu Ruhai didn't dare to come out, and asked softly, "Meng girl, how is it?" Is there a remedy? ”

The Zhao family of the third room and the Zhang family of the big room also came to the hall at this time, and saw that Yu Jiao was checking Yu Qiyu's pulse, and their eyes were all focused on her.

Yu Jiao frowned slightly, withdrew her hand, her eyes met Yu Qiyu's clear gaze, she smiled slightly, "Although the pulse is withered, it is not incurable, let me think about the prescription for a few days." ”

After Yu Qiyu heard this, there was no obvious change in the expression on Jun Xiu's face, he got up and said hello to Yu Ruhai, and went back to his room to read.

Yu Ruhai couldn't hide his excitement, and chased after Yu Jiao, "Meng girl, you have to think about the recipe, if you need any medicinal materials, you can just take them from the pharmacy and use them, and if you don't have them, we will go to the pharmacy in the city to buy them." ”

After Yu Qiyu left, the smile on Yu Jiao's face dissipated, her pupils narrowed slightly, she looked at the expressions of everyone in the room, and said slowly, "Fifth brother's body has run out of oil, and I have no way to adjust it." ”

After hearing this, Yu Ruhai was hit hard, and his old face, which was already full of wrinkles, had a lot of vicissitudes, he touched his beard dryly and helplessly, his lips moved slightly, but he didn't know what to say.

Yu Zhou's eyelids drooped slightly, there was no joy or sorrow on his face, Dafang Zhang sighed, got up and went outside the house to continue weaving grain buckets.

Sanfang Zhao lowered his head as if he was nothing, and continued to accept the soles of his shoes, Yu Jiao took in everyone's expressions, and a touch of deep thought crossed her pupils.

The courtyard door creaked, and Song came back with the washed clothes, and Yu Jiao stood up and walked towards the outside of the hall.

She reached out and grabbed the basket on Song's back and helped her dry her clothes together.

Seeing that there were no outsiders at home, Song asked aloud, "The person who saw the doctor is gone?" ”

Yu Jiao nodded, didn't say anything, and worked with the Song family to dry the dismantled bedding on the bamboo pole rack in the courtyard.

There was a sound of talking outside the courtyard gate, and after a while, Yu Zhixing, the eldest son of the eldest house, and his wife carried the child into the courtyard.

The two of them saw Yu Jiao who was drying clothes at a glance, and they were slightly surprised, after Meng Yujiao made such a scandal before, the young juniors were all paid by the Yu family, Yu Lingling went to her grandfather's house, and Yu Zhixing took her daughter-in-law Wang Mengyan back to her parents' house.

Yu Qiaoshan, who was doing carpentry in the yard, raised his eyes and said, "You're back?" ”

Wang Mengyan walked to Yuqiao Mountain with the child in her arms, looked at the small wooden bed that had gradually taken shape, and said, "The better Dad's craftsmanship is, the better, our little bellflower will have its own bed." ”

The little girl in Wang Mengyan's arms shouted sweetly to Yu Qiaoshan, "Grandpa, hug." ”

Yu Qiaoshan hurriedly wiped his hands, took the little girl and hugged her in his arms, Yu Zhixing carried a cloth bag and went back to the big room directly, and Zhang put down the rattan in his hand and followed back to the West House.

"My mother-in-law gave me some brown sugar and fifty duck eggs to make up for Mengyan and the little girl." Yu Zhixing gently put the cloth bag on the ground.

Zhang took out the brown sugar and duck eggs, looked happy, and said, "My mother has always been willing to us, but we don't have a pot, this duck egg can't be hidden, otherwise it will be seen by your grandmother, and it will be a big crime of unfilial piety." ”

Zhang counted out fifteen duck eggs and planned to take them out of the middle school, and the rest were hidden.

Wang Mengyan also entered the house with the child in her arms, and asked curiously, "Mother, why is Meng Yujiao still at home?" ”

Zhang glanced outside, lowered his voice and said, "That girl from the Meng family is capable, your father values her good medical skills, how can he be willing to drive her away, and some of them are troublesome!" ”

Wang Mengyan teased the child in his arms and said in surprise, "Meng Yujiao knows how to heal?" She continued to stay in our house, and the third aunt and grandmother didn't make a fuss? ”

Zhang sneered, "Why didn't you make a fuss?" can't stop that little girl's high medical skills, when Zhou Huai from our village carried her into the house, everyone was almost gone, and she was the one who saved her! Today, the head of Zhangzhuang led his son with epilepsy to come to see a doctor, and she also prescribed the prescription, if people are really looked down on, the third child and your grandmother will make trouble again, and your father will be reluctant to drive people away! ”

Wang Mengyan and Yu Zhixing couldn't help but smack their tongues, still a little incredulous, "Meng Yujiao's medical skills are so powerful?" Why haven't you heard of it before? ”

"Who knows! Anyway, let's not mix anything with it. Zhang advised.

Zhang's carried duck eggs to report to Yu Zhou's family, and Yu Zhou's family was naturally very happy to be able to bring things back from his mother's house, and praised Wang Mengyan's mother's family with two sentences.

In the yard, Yu Jiao helped Song finish drying his clothes, walked to the vicinity of Yuqiao Mountain, and stood quietly to watch him planing the small wooden bed and doing some finishing work.

"Uncle, can you make something for me?" Yu Jiao saw that Yu Qiaoshan was skilled, and asked out loud.

Yu Qiaoshan glanced at Yu Jiao, he didn't really know what attitude to use to get along with Yu Jiao, he was silent for a moment before asking, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I'll draw a picture and see if you can make it like that." Yu Jiao picked up a small branch on the ground, sharpened it with Yu Qiaoshan's knife, and returned to the East House.

She knocked on Yu Qizhen's door, waited for a while, Yu Qizhen opened the door from the inside, and seeing that it was Yu Jiao, he said lightly, "What's the matter?" ”

"I'll lend you paper and ink." Yu Jiao said.

Yu Qizhen stepped back and moved out of the way, Yu Jiao entered Yu Qizhen's room, the furnishings in the room were also very simple, but the bookshelves were full of books, and the desk was also full of books.

Yu Jiao glanced at the opinions written by Yu Qizhen on the book, the handwriting was beautiful, although Yu Jiao couldn't understand its meaning, but I thought that Yu Qiyu was really talented in reading.

Yu Jiao took a piece of white paper, dipped it in ink with a sharpened branch, and drew it on the paper.

Yu Qiyu stood quietly aside, still a little curious about Yu Jiao's painting with branches, and after a while, Yu Jiao's painting gradually took shape, and it could be seen that it was the shape of a leg.

Yu Qiyu raised his eyes to look at the side of her face and asked, "What is this?" ”
