Chapter Twenty-Six: The Long-Tongued Woman
"Song Yu, come here." Gu Liuxi put the ointment on the stone next to him and beckoned to him.
Song Yu walked over quickly, "What?" ”
"I'll give you the medicine." Gu Liuxi pulled him to sit down, saw him with beads of sweat on his face, and went to get a wet towel and came back to wipe his face.
That hand occasionally touched her cheek, a little itchy, Song Yu was not used to it, and immediately held her wrist, "I'll do it myself." ”
"Don't move." Gu Liuxi drank solemnly. As a doctor, the last thing I like is uncooperative patients, such as Song Yu.
Song Yu didn't want to make her angry, she sat on the stone and felt uncomfortable, as if there were thousands of ants running under her buttocks.
Especially when the wound on the left side of his face was touched by a towel, Song Yu's body was even more tense, and he couldn't wait to flee immediately.
Finally, when Gu Liuxi finished wiping his face, Song Yu was already stiff like a stone.
Gu Liuxi put down the towel and said, "Now I'm going to put a dressing on your face, and it will take it off in about half an hour, and it's time to have dinner at that time, and the time is just right." ”
She applied the ointment to the scar on Song Yu's face, and Song Yu said, "You went to the pharmacy today to grab the medicine, in fact, it was for my injury?" ”
"Yes, your injury looks hideous and terrifying, in fact, it is not difficult to treat, as long as you apply the medicine frequently, you can see a significant improvement after a month, stick to it, and the scar can be eliminated in three months at most." Gu Liuxi was very confident in his prescription.
Song Yu seemed to have a warm current surging through his heart, and he couldn't help but clasp Gu Liuxi's wrist.
"What, does it hurt?" Thinking that it was Song Yu's wound that hurt because his movements were too rough, Gu Liuxi stopped, "If it hurts, I'll light it?" ”
Song Yu let go of her, shook his head slightly, and then said softly, "Thank you." ”
Gu Liuxi didn't know why, so after applying the medicine to him, he bandaged it with gauze and made Song Yujing look like a mummy.
"It's going to get better slowly." In the future, no one will dare to say that you are ugly, and it will be too late for some people to pounce on you.
"Ryu-hee, thank you." Song Yu is not a person who writes his feelings on his face, if he doesn't say it, Gu Liuxi will never understand his mind.
"What's so thankful for this, these medicines are bought with the money you earned, I just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and you thank me." Gu Liuxi put away the rest of the ointment, "In the future, apply it twice a day, if I don't use it, you can apply it in front of the mirror by yourself, you must not interrupt, it will have no effect if you break it." ”
"Okay."
Song Yu was sincerely glad that it was Gu Liuxi who came to his side.
Later in the evening, Brother Song and the Li brothers also returned from fishing.
"Alas, the rain in this river is getting less and less, and today I saw people on the other side of the river also come to fish, probably because they coveted our fish, but they didn't want to think about it, there were more fish in the market, and the price could only be lowered, and the fish sold at that time was not enough money to go out of the boat for a day." Father Song was very annoyed, and only put Gu Liuxi's lo-mei on the table, and his face looked a little better.
Before, Gu Liuxi had left some of it to eat at home, which would be served on the table for Father Song to dissipate his anger.
Aunt Song had already had dinner and was making new clothes for Gu Liuxi by the faint light, "This silver is indeed getting harder and harder to earn, you still have to think of a long-term way, in the future, in winter, it will not work just by hunting and fishing." ”
Li An gobbled up, stuffed a mouthful of vegetables, and said vaguely: "It's okay aunt, I told the landlord Zheng that I would go to his house as a short-term worker in winter, including food and housing, and settle wages on a daily basis." ”
"Landlord Zheng is a great good man here for us, you have to help others do things when you go, don't be lazy." Aunt Song said.
"Got it, don't worry."
Li Mu hesitated for a moment and said, "Auntie, seeing that it's okay in winter, I want to go to the city to learn carpenter's skills from the master." ”
"Go ahead, learn from Master Wang, and if you have a future in the future, don't be like your aunt and uncle, dealing with loess every day." Aunt Song said happily.
Li An doesn't like to learn things, he has a simple brain and can't learn anything, but Li Mu is different, he can read and write, and he is interested in carpenter's craft, so Aunt Song naturally supports him to go.
It's still early in winter, and everyone just has a plan, and no one can say what they will say when the time comes.
Father Song asked Song Yu again: "Liuxi will go back to the door with you in a few days, have you packed the gifts that should be prepared for your father-in-law?" ”
Song Yu put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Well, I know, dad doesn't have to worry about it." ”
Gu Liuxi was very embarrassed, daring to love that the whole family remembered the return to the door, but she forgot everything about herself.
Father Song looked at the materials in Aunt Song's hand and said, "If there is any leftover, make a dress for Yu'er, and you can't wear a rag when you go to your father-in-law's house, it will be a shame for Liuxi." ”
Gu Liuxi snickered and said, "No, my dad is not the kind of person who looks down on others."
"Yes, my father-in-law must also be a good person, otherwise how would I teach such a sensible child as Liuxi." Father Song was pleased.
They went to give the bride price before, and those poor and sour things didn't take care of the old man to show disgust, so it can be seen that they are not the kind of snobbish people who look down on the poor.
"Yu'er bought a whole piece of cloth, enough for one of us to make a simple dress," Aunt Song said with a smile: "But this fabric is so expensive, just make a body for Yu'er, and keep it for Liuxi, Luan'er and stones to make clothes in the future, let's not wear it, do rough work all day long, the better the clothes, the easier it is to wear out." ”
"Mother, who is Luan'er?" Gu Liuxi asked.
Song Yu picked a piece of braised pork and put it in Gu Liuxi's bowl, "Sister-in-law." ”
Sister-in-law called Luan'er? Doesn't sound like an uneducated village woman. Gu Liuxi came to a conclusion.
Then Aunt Song said to her two nephews: "It's not that my aunt won't do it for you, when you marry a daughter-in-law in the future, your aunt will also be good to your daughter-in-law." ”
"Got it, auntie, although those silk satins are comfortable to wear, they tear up without paying attention, so we don't like them." Ang Lee made a mischievous grimace.
"You're poor." Aunt Song was angry and funny.
After dinner, Gu Liuxi helped wash the dishes, and walked around the yard again before returning to the room.
"I just passed by Xiao Mu's room, and I seem to hear him reading?"
Song Yu was laying out the quilt, and when he heard this, he said: "Xiao Mu likes to read, and he is very talented, and he will not be worse than the teacher in the town." ”
"In that case, why didn't he go to the exam, even if he took the exam, he could get a good job, right?" Gu Liuxi remembered that the married man that the original owner liked was a showman, and he taught in a school in the town, and his life was much better than that of a hunter and fisherman.
Song Yu's movements froze, and his eyes drooped.
Gu Liuxi saw that he was silent, and immediately asked nervously, "Did I say something wrong?" ”
Could it be that Li Mu is involved with someone and can't participate in the scientific examination?
