Quiet, the whole fence yard was quiet, and the villagers looked at me in a daze, and there was no sound for a long time.

"Village chief, my clothes haven't been washed yet, I'll go back to wash my clothes first, otherwise I won't have to wear them tomorrow." I don't know which mother-in-law said such a sentence first.

And then......

"My pigs weren't fed, so I went back."

"And me, my dog doesn't know where to go, I haven't seen it in the morning, I'll look for it."

The villagers, you said a word, and they all left.

I sighed, then looked at the village chief: "If this is not your house, you will probably find an excuse to leave, right?" ”

I asked, but the tone was affirmative.

Because I also know that people's bad roots are sometimes really tenacious and deep-rooted, and it is not enough to change them in a few words.

So I also knew this outcome, but I didn't expect that none of them would be left......

No, there's another one.

I looked down, looked at the little baby at my feet, and smiled slightly: "Child, what's your name?" ”

It was a five or six-year-old nurse, and at this time, his eyes were shining at me.

The child said expectantly, "Sister......"

"Niu Wa, you can't call me sister, you have to call ...... county"

I slowly raised my hand to stop the village chief's correction: "Your name is Niu Wa, right?" So what do you want to say to your sister? ”

"Sister, if there is a lot of silver, can my mother's illness be cured?"

"Your mother is sick?" I asked.

Niu Wa nodded.

I looked at the village chief and seemed to ask what was going on.

The village chief sighed and said: "Niu Wa's mother was sick last year, and she has not been well until now, and the village also made up some silver to let Niu Da Niang go to the city to see a doctor, but you also know that we are a poor person who only has half a ration left, how can there be any silver!" So the doctor in the city didn't think the money was too much, so he didn't show her, and the result has been delayed until now, and he is happy...... Oh, Pingle is Langzhong in our village, and he said that Aunt Niu may not survive this year. ”

"What about the child's father? As the head of the family, didn't you think of a way? I asked.

"Lord Zhao Yan, don't you know, Niu Wa's child is a hard-working baby, not long after he was born, his father left, so ah, now Niu Aunt's illness is Niu Baby's concern, if Niu Auntie also leaves, this child ......"

In the end, the village chief shook his head vigorously and sighed.

I squatted down, gently touched Niu Wa's cute little face, and said with a smile: "Niu Wa, can you take my sister to see your mother?" ”

Niu Wa immediately nodded obediently, and then led me to his house.

Behind him, the village chief was stunned, not knowing what I was going to do, but he could only quickly follow.

When I arrived at Niu Wa's house, looking at the dilapidated thatched house, as well as the tattered tables, chairs, pots and pans, all of a sudden, my heart became sour.

In my previous life, I was just a child who was discarded, and if it wasn't for my father who picked me up from the trash can, did I live such a hard life now?

Or maybe not even such a life?

"County Lord, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that my mood seemed to be a little wrong, Dong Ting immediately said worriedly.

I shook my head: "It's okay, but I didn't expect it, their family ...... No, it should be said that the people here actually live such a life. ”

"Lord Zhao Yan, we are all just poor people, and we have long been used to this kind of life." The village chief smiled widely, but as he spoke, he said as if he remembered something: "But! I started a few years ago, and I don't know how, our village! From time to time, I will receive a sum of silver from a mysterious person, although it is not much, but it can also save the emergency when the pot cannot be opened. ”

"Oh, and that kind of thing?" I was a little surprised.

In this cold world, who still cares about the lives of these poor people?

It's really rare.

Who is it?

If I had the chance, I'd love to see it.

"Niu Wa, is anyone coming?"

At this time, Aunt Niu's weak voice came from the back room.

Niu Wa immediately ran in, and we followed in, and there was a man in the house.

"Mother, my sister has come to see you."

"Sister?" Aunt Niu was a little puzzled.

At this time, the village chief explained: "Aunt Niu, this is the county lord of Zhao Yan of the Zhenguo Mansion. ”

"County Lord?" When Aunt Niu heard that it was a nobleman, she hurriedly wanted to get up from the bed, so I hurriedly stepped forward and helped her: "Aunt Niu, coming uninvited, it is already Zhao Yan's rudeness, and Aunt Niu is still sick, so there is no need to be polite!" ”

"This ......"

"It's not a serious illness if you have been sick for a long time."

I suddenly came out with such a sentence, which also interrupted Aunt Niu's words.

Hearing this, Aunt Niu, the village chief, and the man were all puzzled, Niu Wa blinked as if she didn't understand, and Dong Ting was the most calm one.

Because she was by my side, it was because Emperor Zhao doubted that I was Zhao Si's medical apprentice, so I would say these words, and I wouldn't surprise Dong Ting at all.

I smiled slightly and said, "Aunt Niu, I'm really sorry that I took your pulse without your permission." ”

As soon as these words came out, they found out that my hand had long been pressed on Aunt Niu's wrist.

It turned out that when I went to help Aunt Niu just now, I had already seen Aunt Niu and had some understanding of Aunt Niu's condition.

"Lord Zhao Yan, although you are a nobleman, you are a little girl, do you know what medical skills are? If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, Aunt Niu is seriously ill, don't give hope, and finally disappoint people. ”

At this time, the man who had not spoken all this time spoke.

I glanced back at him, and then said lightly, "You're Pingle, aren't you?" That half-tone country langzhong. ”

"Lord Zhao Yan, how do you know that he is Pingle? We didn't say anything! The village chief was puzzled, and Pingle was also surprised.

I lazily curled my lips: "There is a smell of herbs on my body, even a fool can guess one or two." ”

"I see! Lord Zhao Yan is really thoughtful, so he can see it. The village chief was instantly impressed.

"That only shows that Lord Zhao Yan is smart, but it doesn't mean that Aunt Niu's illness can be cured." Pingle retorted.

"Pingle, do you know about the young master of the Martial Prince's Mansion?" Dong Ting said suddenly.

Ping Le was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Who doesn't know about this, the whole capital has spread all over the capital, and I heard that it was cured by a demon doctor named Zhao Si." ”

"You're a demon doctor!" Dong Ting glared at him angrily: "Zhao Si is the county lord of my family...... 's master, if my county lord can't cure it, then Aunt Niu will really be hopeless. ”

In fact, Dong Ting wanted to say that Zhao Si was me, but when I thought about it, I didn't admit it in person, so I had to change my words.

"What? The county lord of Zhao Yan turned out to be the doctor apprentice of Zhao Shi? Pingle's eyes widened in a daze, and the village chief was also surprised.

"That's right, now you know how powerful my county lord is, right?" Dong Ting immediately said proudly.

"But don't the people in the city say that the county lord of the Zhenguo Mansion is just a cowardly and incompetent waste? How could she be Master Zhao's apprentice? Pingle still can't believe it, because it's too hard to believe.

"That's because my county lord is low-key, and you haven't noticed? The lord of my family is a person who can speak without opening his mouth, is such a person not enough to make you believe? ”

Hearing this, Pingle suddenly exclaimed: "Ah~ That's right! Lord Zhao Yan is a mute. ”

As soon as he finished shouting, Pingle immediately realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, so he quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not scolding, I'm just listening to what the people in the city say." ”

Pingle's words, I didn't get angry, just said lightly: "You're right, I'm just a dumb person, but for some reason, I can not speak." ”

"It's Wuzun, understand?" Dong Ting said again.

"Wu Zun? How did you get to Wuzun? Pingle scratched his head and didn't understand anymore.

Hearing this, Dong Ting was about to be angry: "The only one who can speak without opening his mouth is Wuzun, don't you know?" ”

Is this the rhythm of her playing the harp to the cow?

Dare to love She just said so much, this man doesn't understand at all?

Pingle pursed his lips and muttered, "I don't practice martial arts, how do I know." ”

"You ......"

"Dong Ting, it's okay!" I chuckled: "You can't blame him, Hongyan Village has never produced martial arts, martial arts titles, at most they have heard of these titles, but specifically, who will know?" ”

"Yes, yes, that's what I mean." Ping Le saw that Dong Ting was angry, so he quickly nodded and agreed.

Hearing this, Dong Ting was stunned for a moment, and then smiled helplessly: "What the county lord said is, what do I have to worry about with him who doesn't understand anything!" ”

It's all a fool's errand.
