"Does it still hurt?"

It wasn't until Lian Junjie's low and hoarse voice sounded in his ears that Ye Hongsleeve came back to his senses.

"No, it doesn't hurt!"

She blushed and shook her head, then hurriedly lowered her head to change the subject.

"We have to catch all these scorpions, even the eldest mother's illness is just right for these."

"Wait a minute!"

Lian Junjie touched her head and turned around, then cut a branch over.

After swinging the knife at the branch several times, two pairs of long chopsticks were sharpened.

"You use this clip, and it won't hurt your hand."

Lian Junjie said as he handed the chopsticks to Ye Hongsleeve.

Scorpions like to hide in shady places and generally hide under rocks.

Lian Junjie moved stones, Ye Hongsleeve took chopsticks, and he gained a lot after a cup of tea.

Half of the medicinal herbs were collected, and a lot of scorpions were caught, although Ye Hongsleeve was reluctant to leave at all, but for the safety of himself and Lian Junjie, he had to evacuate as soon as possible.

After leaving the mountain, the two came to the creek again.

Ye Hongsleeve poured out all the herbs and sorted them out, and even the ones that the eldest mother needed for her illness were sorted out and left.

The rest that are not used are put back into the back basket in the order of light, heavy and cheap, and they are planned to be processed and baked tomorrow, and all of them will be sold in the county medical hall.

Lian Junjie was sweating because he was busy going into the city early in the morning to sell goods, and he felt uncomfortable all over his body, so he simply took off his coat and scrubbed by the stream like last time.

After sorting out the medicinal materials, Ye Hongsleeve raised his head and saw Lian Junjie's scars all over his body again.

"Are all these wounds on your body from the battlefield?"

She wanted to ask him something about the battlefield, but his brother had not heard from him until now, and he had also returned from the battlefield, so he might know a little about his brother.

Lian Junjie looked down at the scars on his body lightly, and nodded, "Yes." ”

Speaking of the scar, Ye Hongsleeve suddenly remembered the scar on the tiger's mouth on the person he saw in his dream.

Her gaze involuntarily shifted to Lian Junjie's hand.

There were countless scars on his body, but there were no scars on his hands with very good joints, except for the calluses on the palms.

"Do you know about my brother?"

Ye Hongsleeves asked cautiously.

Although she firmly believed in her heart that her eldest brother, who had been upright and upright since childhood, would not do anything to be a traitor, she was still nervous.

"What? Do you believe the rumors? ”

Lian Junjie didn't answer the question, and then sat on the ground next to her.

"That's my eldest brother, of course I don't believe it, not only do I not believe it, but I have to find a way to make the people in the village just like me not believe it."

Lian Junjie looked at Ye Hongsleeve, who said these words very calmly, with some surprise.

I haven't seen her for a few years, and her transformation is really not ordinary.

He remembered that once when he was a child, Ye Changqing was not used to Cheng Tianshun bullying Yang Tudan, who was always runny and a little stammering when he spoke, and he started a fight with him.

Ye Changqing was fine, Cheng Tianshun was beaten and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, but Xiao Hongsleeve was so frightened that he cried in his arms for a long time, asking himself what to do.

"Isn't it good that your eldest brother isn't injured himself? What do you cry into doing this? ”

He helped the little man in his arms up, and asked with a puzzled face while wiping her tears.

"But that Cheng Tianshun is not a good person, he has a lot of bad moves, the eldest brother fought with him and injured him, he will definitely find a way to harm my eldest brother, I don't want the eldest brother to have anything, you say! What do you say now? ”

She was coquettish and pleading in her arms, and in the end he had no choice but to promise her, saying that as long as Cheng Tianshun dared to hurt her eldest brother, he would join forces with Ye Changqing to teach him a hard lesson.

Only then did she flash her big tearful eyes, put her little hands around his neck, and said that she knew the best.
