Chapter 13: Déjà vu
It was pitch black all around, Ji Wennan was standing by the lake wet, a gust of wind hit, and his body shivered.
The light in the distance gradually walked towards the lake, and the sound of human voices and small footsteps could be faintly heard.
On a hot summer night, Ji Wennan felt a cool breath from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, and it was completely cold all the way.
Someone rushed over like a loud exclamation, Ji Wennan was knocked over, and he held on to the rockery next to him to stabilize his body.
As the voice was noisy, the originally vague faces gradually became clear, and they were presented in front of him one by one.
The head of the Fu family was furious, Ji Wennan opened his mouth to speak, and received a heavy slap on the face.
Ji Wennan tilted his head by this slap, and his eyes fell on the woman who was lying on the ground wet and lying in the middle surrounded by her mother-in-law.
The room was silent, Tong'an lay down on the collapse table on the side, the fingers of the person on the bed moved, his breathing was rapid, and his closed eyes slowly opened.
Ji Wennan's eyelids trembled, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the dim light, and the warm and moist feeling greeted him, which was different from the cold lake water in his sleep and the dark night.
He closed his eyes again, and the touch sensations on his body returned to his body one by one, and all the pain all over his body, especially in his chest, was even clearer.
"Shui ......." has a bitter taste of Chinese medicine in his mouth, and his throat is dry.
Tong'an heard the voice half-asleep and half-dreamed, and a clever spirit woke up, and his eyes looked at Ji Wennan on the bed.
"Childe, you're awake!" To make sure that he was not mistaken, Tong An poured out half a cup of water from the tea Gu and walked to the bed.
Ji Wennan drank a glass of water with Tong'an's support, most of the dryness in his mouth disappeared, and he wanted to have another glass, but was stopped by Tong'an.
"Doctor Shen said that the son can't drink more water when he just wakes up, and he can't eat until a quarter of an hour."
Tong'an carefully helped the person to lean on the pillow, knowing that Gongzi was puzzled, he didn't wait for him to ask, and then said: "Doctor Shen of Liuye Village, Shen Yuanyao." ”
The doubts on Ji Wennan's face disappeared, and he remembered that the person who bandaged his wounds in the cave was the doctor Shen that Tong An said.
"Childe."
Qianshu Qianhai noticed the movement in the house, quietly entered the house, lowered his head and waited aside, and waited for Ji Wennan's eyes to fall on the two of them and bowed.
Ji Wennan half-closed his eyelids, his eyes fell on the silk wool hanging low on the bed tent, he came back to his senses when he heard the voice of Qianshu Qianhai, and asked in a low voice: "Have anyone come to inquire about the news in the past few days that I have been in a coma?" ”
"Shopkeeper Ji has sent people to urge Gongzi to return to the city many times, but he has been blocked by me and Qianshu, if Gongzi ...... "still not awake, Gongzi's injury will not be hidden, and sooner or later he will be known by Shopkeeper Ji."
Shopkeeper Ji is not a soft-hearted person, they can't explore what happened when he was young, the current head of the Fu family served until a few years ago when he was a child, and when his son succeeded, he retired to the south to live in the south.
Now the right-hand man of the Fu family is the son of this person, and he brought it out single-handedly.
They can barely hide it for a few days under the nose of Shopkeeper Ji, but it is not feasible in the long run.
Qianshu Qianhai lowered his head and didn't dare to raise his eyes to look directly, and when Ji Wennan raised his hand to signal that he knew, Qianshu Qianhai's half-hanging heart fell to the ground, bowed and withdrew from the house.
Tong An saw that Gongzi looked tired, half leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes, and quietly retreated to the door without making a sound.
"Is Dr. Shen still here?"
Ji Wennan suddenly spoke, the bed tent was half-hung and he couldn't see the look of the person on the bed clearly, and Tong'an lowered his head and replied: "Doctor Shen is not in Zhuangzi, he only tells the little good student to take care of the son." ”
"But let Dr. Shen come over?" After Tong An replied, he saw that Gongzi had not spoken, so he said cautiously.
There was silence in the room, and after a while, the man in the bed tent said, "That's it." ”
Gongzi said so, Tong'an naturally didn't insist on finding people, bowed and bowed and retreated outside the house.
According to Shen Yuanyao's instructions, Tong'an didn't dare to let his subordinates come in to serve casually, and quietly retreated after he had eaten less.
The moonlight outside the house was quiet and the cool breeze was gentle, and the atmosphere tonight was much calmer than the atmosphere two days ago.
Tong'an walked to the side of the house, and said in his heart: I can sleep peacefully tonight.
The next day, Shen Yuanyao, as usual, went up the mountain to collect medicine before dawn, and went down the mountain with a backpack at noon.
She thought about going home to Liu's house for a trip, and the herbs that had been dried in the past few days could be sold, not more than last time, but they could also be sold for some money.
As soon as Shen Yuanyao walked near Liu's house, he ran into an acquaintance, who was Aunt Liang, who came to the door yesterday to pinch soft persimmons.
Although she doesn't want to deal with this kind of person, she can't really put on a face and ignore it, otherwise when she turns around and leaves, the other end will be able to say something ugly.
"Aunt Liang, where are you going?" Shen Yuanyao thought so, so she raised a smile and generously greeted Aunt Liang with a stinky face.
Aunt Liang didn't mean to deal with Shen Yuanyao, and when she saw the person who was smiling kindly, her face became even more stinky when she remembered what happened yesterday.
He snorted angrily and walked straight to the entrance of the village.
Shen Yuanyao didn't have a good face, and she didn't care, and when she saw Aunt Liang walking away, she walked towards Liu's house.
The courtyard of the Shen family was quiet, and in the past few days, Liu Anyi and Shen Yong saw that the relationship between the two brothers of Shen Yongzong had improved, and after a few adults went out early in the morning, they also went out to have fun.
Shen Yuanyao looked at the sun, washed his face, picked up the vegetable basket and walked out.
Not far from the field, under the shade of a tree, sat a group of women, and from time to time a half-sized man came to deliver food, and the smell of food was overflowing.
Jia Xiuli's breath was full of the smell of food, and she restrained herself from looking into other people's rice bowls, so she could only look in the direction of the village from time to time, her stomach was uncomfortably hungry, and she was harassed by the smell of other people's food from time to time.
It's just a kind of Ling Chi, she can't control her mouth when she is uncomfortable, and she said to Qin Hua: "Where is the sister-in-law, why haven't you seen anyone?" ”
"It's probably on the road, and you won't starve to death if it's a little late."
As soon as Jia Xiuli's words came out, many women looked over, and Qin Hua was uncomfortable with this gaze, and she was angry that her eldest daughter-in-law didn't have a doorknob on her mouth, and she also complained a little about her daughter.
It's tiring to go to the ground, and it's all waiting for noon to slow down for a while, and where there are women, there is no need to gossip, although everyone doesn't say anything, isn't it still eye contact.
Qin Hua was uncomfortable by their seemingly non-existent and "communicating" eyes with each other, if it weren't for the shade of such a large piece of land, she really didn't want to come and be looked at by these people.
Compared to Qin Hua's discomfort, Jia Xiuli didn't feel anything at all, she felt hungry and uncomfortable now, how others liked to look at it, as long as they didn't splash water on her, it was even easy to say.
"Auntie, you're hungry, it's too late today." Everyone's eyes were suddenly drawn back by this voice.
They had been looking at the lawsuit before, but now when they looked back, they found that there was a girl carrying a vegetable basket under the shade of the tree.
Dressed in a light pink top, the lower half of the dress is dressed in a tender green embroidered skirt, a silver hairpin is inserted between the buns, and a little light spots fall from the gaps between the trees, with a gentle and faint smile on his face.
Qin Cuihua saw that everyone had seen it, but not only did she not feel shy, but she took out the meals one by one neatly and generously.
Cuihua Niang didn't react for a while, and it wasn't until Qin Cuihua stuffed the chopsticks into her hand that she remembered that this girl was her daughter.
In fact, it's no wonder that Cuihua Niang is unfamiliar, after Shen Sanya was picked and taken away by Dr. Liu, Cuihua Niang turned her head and sent her daughter to the hands of the people.
After all, a girl has been raised and married, and she is not from someone else's family, so it is better to send it to a big family's house, and there is a monthly silver supplement to the family every month, not to mention, and it does not cost the family's rice grain.
Shen Yuanyao's family came before, and it didn't take long for Qin Cuihua to come home, compared with Shen Yuanyao, Qin Cuihua was so decent that every family envied her.
Qin Cuihua won the master's praise, this is not a marriage, that person is still a landsman in front of the master.
No, I have to tell my family to be married, and no one in the village is envious.
Seeing that everyone shifted their attention, Qin Hua quietly relented.
"The bigger the more symbolic, the emerald flower girl is going to be blessed."
"That's not, look at my girl, I really want to change it."
Everyone praised Cuihua Niang for raising a good girl, the icing on the cake was just a little sugar on her mouth, and no one was willing to add a few words.
Qin Cuihua is amazing in their opinion, and now that they have a good relationship, they can be cheeky enough to come to the door and ask for something even in the future.
Jia Xiuli saw Shen Yuanyao coming from a distance, and was afraid that Shen Yuanyao wouldn't be able to find them, so she couldn't help but stand up and shout: "Sanya, here, we are here!" ”
Shen Yuanyao walked under the scorching sun, her back was sweating a lot, her cheeks were also reddened by the sun, and she received a glance as soon as she walked under the shade of the tree.
Compared with the gossip and curious gaze of the people in the village, this gaze is more difficult to describe, relieved and clear, and more indescribable mockery.
She raised her eyes and looked back, the woman was brightly dressed, and in a group of countrymen facing the loess with their backs to the sky, it was a beautiful landscape.
