Chapter 7: Able to speak
The Ming family, Mingyue and Mrs. Ming were first startled by Uncle Ming, who was holding Yu Jiayan, and then hurriedly welcomed Dr. Li into the door.
Doctor Li was dragged all the way by Ming Erlang and trotted over, and was forced to run wildly twice in one day, the villain in Dr. Li's heart was two lines of wide noodles and tears, and he pondered, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that this old life of his will have to be explained to their old Ming family.
Behind them, who also trotted all the way, were Ming Dalang, who was carrying a medicine bag, and Ming Saburo and Ming Shiro, who were ordered to deliver a message to their second brother.
"Quick, Doctor Li, you can show Jiayan that kid." Mrs. Ming opened the curtain of the main house with an agile movement that did not match her actual age, "My eldest family put him on the West House Kang, you go this way." ”
Dr. Li gasped heavily, "First... Let the old man catch his breath first. ”
Mrs. Ming saw that he was really out of breath, and he seemed to be running more quickly than in the morning, so she had to patiently let Dr. Li calm down first.
Mingyue had already gone to the stove room and hall house in the east wing to wash the pot and boil the water.
Yu Jiayan only burned up after suffering from the cold, so she was going to boil a little ginger syrup first, and when he woke up, he could warm up his body and fill his stomach.
There is also a little salt to put in it, and it should be better for people with fever to drink some salt water.
While thinking in her heart, Mingyue took the firewood to the stove.
She didn't use the earthen stove in the countryside for a long time, and she was really not used to it, so after fiddling with it for a while, she lit the fire.
In the west house of the Ming family, Dr. Li, who was panting, put his fingers between Yu Jiayan's thin right wrist.
"It's burning too much, you can get some liquor and wipe it for him first." Dr. Li didn't pretend to others, opened the medicine box with his own hands and dispensed the medicine, and then asked Mrs. Ming for the clay pot to boil the medicine.
"In the hall, I'll go get it." Mrs. Ming had already summoned Ming Dalang, who had just returned home, to borrow spirits from the Huang family next door - her family was taken away by Ming Lao Er just now, and because of the chaos, no one forgot to bring the wine back. At this time, when she heard that Dr. Li wanted a crockpot, the old lady immediately entered the hall and moved the crockpot out of the lowest level of the cupboard.
Ming Erlang helped Dr. Li clean the clay pot, fill the water, and make a fire with a very discerning eye, while Dr. Li put medicinal herbs in it little by little.
After a while, Ming Dalang rushed back from the Huang family next door with a small wine jar, and came with him, as well as Mrs. Huang and her little granddaughter.
Her little granddaughter's name is Huang Xiaoying, the only little girl in the Huang family's grandchildren, in front of her, her mother has given birth to three big fat boys, Mrs. Huang is looking forward to having a little granddaughter.
This girl is the same as Mingyue, she is also 13 years old this year, the two families live next to each other, and both of them are kind and simple, and there is no bad heart of the typical rural little girl, so although Mingyue is a stuffy gourd and Huang Xiaoying is a little talker, these two are very good at playing children.
Yesterday Mingyue was in a coma and was carried back to Ming's house by Yu Jiayan, Huang Xiaoying had already come to see Mingyue once for the first time, because Dr. Li said that Mingyue would wake up today, Huang Xiaoying wanted to run to Ming's house early this morning, but her grandmother said that she stopped this little girl.
"Mingyue? Moon? Are you awake? Moon? As soon as she entered the courtyard of the Ming family, Huang Xiaoying immediately raised her voice and called out to her little friend.
Mingyue heard it, and hurriedly poked her head out of the east wing, "Xiaoying, I'm here." ”
Huang Xiaoying immediately trotted to Mingyue's side, "It's not night and night, why are you on fire?" ”
Mingyue didn't hide it from her, "I'll cook some ginger syrup for Jiayan to drink, he froze outside for a night, and now the people who burn it are confused." ”
As soon as Huang Xiaoying heard it, she immediately shared the latest gossip with her friends, "You don't know yet, do you?" Yu Jiayan said that his uncle made the decision for him and let him break off his second uncle's family. ”
Mingyue was surprised, she asked Huang Xiaoying, "When did this happen?" ”
"Just now. Your father wants to treat Yu Jiayan, but the evil lady of the Zhao family thinks that it is best that Yu Jiayan can't get through, so she will blackmail your family for a sum of money. Your lord saw that she was not well-intentioned, so he said to let her make a document. She didn't stand up, and then the uncle of the Yu family said that he broke off his relationship with the Zhao family on behalf of Yu Jiayan. ”
Huang Xiaoying trumpeted, and explained the cause and effect clearly in three or two sentences.
Mingyue couldn't help frowning slightly after hearing this, "Then what will Jiayan do in the future?" Do you live with his uncle's family? ”
"Where, impossible." Huang Xiaoying said and waved her little fat hand, "His aunt blocked the door and didn't let him in." Therefore, it is very likely that this Yu Jiayan will be in your Ming family for a long time. ”
Of course, Huang Xiaoying is also very sympathetic to Yu Jiayan, but this does not prevent her from despising the Yu family's big house and the Yu family's second room's behavior-her own children and nephews don't support her, and she insists on giving it to the two surnames, and ordinary people really don't have the cheekiness of their two families.
"Just stay, as long as my father and my uncle agree, I have no opinion." Mingyue said so, but she was sure in her heart that Old Man Ming would definitely not drive Yu Jiayan out of the house.
After all, Yu Jiayan is already homeless, and if the Ming family drives him out, it will be no different from killing him directly.
Old Man Ming is a kind person who values love and righteousness, and with Yu Jiayan's kindness to save her, he will never be able to indirectly force Yu Jiayan to death.
Of course, the most important thing is that her family can afford to support Yu Jiayan.
Huang Xiaoying obviously knows the Ming family very well, she clapped her little hands and complained about the Mingyue family, "I knew you would say that!" No wonder my grandmother always says that your family is honest. With this style of your family, if it weren't for your father's many brothers and your third uncle's temper, your Ming family would have been bullied and had no place to go. ”
Mingyue pinched her little face, "You said a little less." ”
Huang Xiaoying pinched her stupidly, "I don't say much, huh?" ”
"Don't talk about your family, Lizheng family, Dr. Li's family, Zhou family, Xie family... These are good friends with my family. Mingyue smiled and stuffed a piece of firewood into the stove, "With your help, how could my family be bullied?" ”
Huang Xiaoying was very moved, and was moved for a while before remembering to complain about Mingyue, "How do I feel that you are better able to speak than before?" ”
Mingyuexin said, the cores have changed, where can the life be the same?
She didn't want to live like Xiao Mingyue, so from the very beginning, she made up her mind to show her true self step by step.
"I'm just telling the truth." She looked calm, and as she spoke, she took a bowl of ginger syrup and handed it to Huang Xiaoying, "You can also have a bowl, although it is a little spicy, but it is very sweet." ”
Huang Xiaoying swallowed her saliva - although she is very favored by her grandmother, father and brother, her family background is really average, and it is rare for her to eat a bite or two of precious things such as sugar.
At the moment, Huang Xiaoying couldn't care about complaining about Mingyue, she took a large porcelain bowl, and took a small sip of ginger syrup in the bowl while blowing.
Mingyue muttered "done" in her heart, and then began to pour sugar water into the other large bowls.
Dr. Li was dragged and ran twice in the cold, and he must give a bowl to remove the cold.
Yu Jiayan, who was sick, Mrs. Huang who came to visit her house, cousins who were waiting to drink sugar water, little cousins who were sleeping soundly in her grandmother's house like glutinous rice dumplings, and old man Ming who was away from home and other elders.
Besides, there are so many people, she can't just leave her grandmother Mrs. Ming behind, right?
With such a calculation, Mingyue simply prepared a big bowl for everyone.
Of course, the sugar and ginger are still the same as before, and most of them are all water...
There's no way, who made her family very poor, if she puts too much, the family won't be distressed.
