I was awakened by the burning sensation on my face.

When I opened my eyes, I found that the sun was shining on my face, but the winter sun was not so hot, and what made me feel pain was that there was no detoxification in my body.

I gritted my teeth in pain to suppress my moans.

Then, I turned my head to look around, and found myself in a simple room, with a wooden bed underneath, and a mattress that was not too thick, and my coat was gone, only a simple cloth coat, covered with a thin quilt, but fortunately the weather was not too cold; There was a big hole in the bed net, and the sunlight that was slanting in from the window shone right through the big hole and hit my face.

I blinked, looking around a little blankly.

Here it is-

At this moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside, my eyes widened in surprise, and I subconsciously wanted to curl up to the corner of the bed, and I saw two poorly dressed children running in, a man and a woman, the older boy was already sixteen or seventeen years old, very tall, with a childish recklessness, and the little girl was only about five or six years old, blinking at me with big eyes, and dragging her nose.

As soon as the boy saw me sitting on the bed, he immediately shouted loudly, "Mother, that person is awake!" ”

This loud voice startled me, and a woman ran in from outside the door.

The three of them stood at the door and looked at me, no one spoke for a while, and there was a ragged bed tent in the middle, at this time I finally woke up from the chaos, and immediately remembered the accident I experienced before I fell into a coma, but how did I wake up and sleep in such a home?

Finally, the woman spoke, cautiously, "Are you awake?" ”

I also said cautiously: "Hmm." Yes, you are ......"

As I spoke, I wanted to reach out and open the tent, but as soon as I stretched out my hand, I remembered that my face was now terrible, and I was afraid that it would frighten the two children, but the woman wiped her hands and hurriedly came up, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, they have all seen it." Fearless. ”

With that, she lifted up the tent and hung it up.

This time, I can see more clearly, this woman is about thirty years old, beautiful and a little colored, but I can see that she has experienced a lot of suffering, her skin is rough, there are fine wrinkles of sorrow at the corners of her eyes, her hands appear thick and powerful, and she is very quick and cheerful in doing things; The two children had probably already seen my face and didn't make a fuss, but the little girl was still cautiously leaning on the door and looking in.

When the woman finished cleaning up the bed net, she took out another white-washed garment from the side, and said a little shyly, "There are not many clothes at home, so you can wear them first." The one you had before was washed and still hasn't dried. I'll give it to you when I'm done. ”

When the woman saw me like this, she hurriedly said "oh", reached out and touched something from under the pillow and handed it to me: "You're looking for this, right?" It fell off when you were helping you change your clothes, don't worry, I didn't look at it. ”

In her hand was a brocade bag.

That is, what was stuffed into my hand when the light cold pushed me down the terrace.

I hurriedly took it, looked carefully inside, and made sure it was okay, so I raised my head and said a little embarrassedly, "Thank you." ”

She looked at my nervous appearance, and just smiled and said, "It's okay." Put your clothes on, don't catch a cold. As he spoke, he turned his head and saw that the two children were still at the door, so he said to the eldest son, "Don't go out quickly, see what!" ”

When the child turned around and ran out, she turned around, I had hastily dressed, and I wanted to get out of bed despite the discomfort on my body, but before my feet could step on the ground, I felt dizzy, and she hurried over to help me sit down. Her hands were thick and strong, but the feeling of holding me was very gentle, and I looked up gratefully: "Thank you." I don't know the benefactor's surname. ”

She hurriedly waved her hand at me: "If you have a high surname, you can call me the seventh sister-in-law." Those two are my children, the eldest is called Ping'er, and the younger one has no name, so let's call her the second girl. ”

"Oh, seventh sister-in-law, I-"

"And," she said, tucking a tousled strand of hair behind her ear and smiling, "I'm not your benefactor." ”

"Huh?"

The seventh sister-in-law said, "It was a bhikshuni who sent you here. ”

"Bhikshunis?"

I was stunned for a moment, but soon, my awakened mind found some fragments of my broken memories.

The place where I fainted was in the mountains that were at least some distance away from Yangzhou City, and the moment before I passed out, I saw a pair of blue-gray shoes, which were only worn by cultivators, and the smell of sandalwood, which did not match the simple houses here and the seven sisters-in-law who did things quickly.

It turned out that it was a bhikshuni who saved me.

I hurriedly asked, "What about her?" ”

The seventh sister-in-law said: "She guarded you for a while, but you never woke up." She had something else to do, so she left. ”

"Ah......h

I sat on the edge of the bed with some regret. In this way, it was the bhikshuni who rescued me from the mountains and forests, brought me here, entrusted me to my seventh sister-in-law, and then left, but unfortunately I was in a coma all the time, and I didn't even have a chance to come to my senses and thank her.

At this time, the seventh sister-in-law had already poured a bowl of hot water and handed it to me, saying, "You must be hungry after sleeping for so long, right?" You wait a while, and the buns will be steamed in no time. ”

As he was talking, that Ping'er was already shouting outside at the top of his voice: "Mother, the buns are ready!" ”

When the seventh sister-in-law heard this, she agreed to run out in a hurry, I thought about it, and suddenly said, "Seventh sister-in-law, where is this place?" ”

The seventh sister-in-law paused at the door and looked back at me: "Here?" It's Yangzhou. ”

Looking back, I went south this time and experienced so many things, in order to enter Yangzhou, I took poison and fought with the people of the government, until now the poison on my body has not been resolved, but I was brought into Yangzhou by a bhikshuni in a coma, which is really helpless and funny.

Fate loves to play tricks on people so much.

But with a smile, he immediately pulled a tingle on his face.

I frowned, subconsciously reached out and touched my face, I don't know if I scratched my cheek when I passed out before, I felt that the uneven place became more swollen and sensitive, just touched it, and the pain made my whole body tremble.

At this time, I remembered what Ah Lan had told me at the beginning.

This poison is highly poisonous!

If it's not detoxified after a month, I'll ruin more than just my face......

When I thought of this, I couldn't help but shudder - I had to find Ah Lan earlier!

No matter how many deaths I have experienced, I will never allow myself to die in this situation, not to mention, I should not be far from my son!

After a while, the seventh sister-in-law had already come in with a drawer of steamed buns, and Ping'er and the second girl also came in, each with two bowls of cloudy noodle soup floating with oil Xing'er, she stood at the table and said with a smile: "There is nothing good at home, let's eat some cushions first." ”

Speaking of which, I was really a little hungry, so I walked over gratefully, and the four of us sat down at the table and ate. The buns made by the seventh sister-in-law are very delicious, with thin skin and big filling, and the delicious soup immediately gushes out when you bite into it, leaving a fragrant mouthful. As I ate, I couldn't help but praise: "Seventh sister-in-law, your craftsmanship is so good." ”

The seventh sister-in-law only smiled and waved her hand, but Ping'er next to her raised her voice: "Mother's craftsmanship is the best on this street." ”

"This street?"

I was puzzled for a moment, and then I heard the seventh sister-in-law say, "Our family sells steamed buns." ”

"Oh......"

I looked down at the half-bitten bun in my hand, and my heart also turned, the seventh sister-in-law's family is not rich at first glance, I live here, no matter what, it disturbs others, plus food and clothing, I must plan early.

The seventh sister-in-law seemed to be very clever, and when she saw me looking at the bun in her hand, she said, "Ah, don't think too much." Before leaving, the bhikshuni left some money for me. Speaking of this, her face flushed slightly, and she said a little shyly: "Actually, you shouldn't have taken money from their monks, but our family, you can also see, there is no way." ”

When she said this, I was even more embarrassed and said, "Seventh sister-in-law, I am causing you trouble." ”

"Ouch, don't say that."

She waved her hand and put another bun in front of me: "Eat more." ”

I agreed, lowered my head and took a bite of the bun, my eyes a little sour.

It's still the same as before, the most beautiful flowers bloom in the most barren land, and these poor people can have a gentle and kind heart, and I have also met people who support me to live and are willing to live better, and the same simplicity as the seventh sister-in-law, but now-

How about him? Wounded and burdened with sin, what will happen to him?

As soon as I thought of this, I couldn't help but feel a suffocation in my chest, and the steamed buns that were still delicious just now became difficult to swallow, I only held half of the buns in my hand and didn't speak, and the two girls on the side looked at me smartly, knelt on the stool and handed the soup bowl to me: "You drink some soup." ”

I looked down at the girl, so old is very sensible, and will take care of people, probably as people often say, the children of the poor should be in charge of the house, looking at her big round eyes, my heart was warm: "Thank you." ”

The seventh sister-in-law looked at her daughter, seemed to be very satisfied, and smiled at me again: "By the way, I don't know what your name is." ”

"Me?" I hesitated for a moment: "My name is Ah Qing." ”

"Ah Qing. How could you- uh-"

Seeing that she was a little difficult to speak, I also knew what the seventh sister-in-law meant, my face was already terrifying, and there were injuries on my body, and I was saved by a bhikshuni, although she was kind enough to take me in, but I also had to inquire clearly so as not to invite trouble.

However, since I have entered Yangzhou City, I know that it is temporarily safe.

So I replied to her, "I met a bandit on the road, and as for my face, it was sick, and that's it." ”

"Sick, oops, that's going to have to be cured sooner." The seventh sister-in-law said, "You are sick, why do you still go out?" Does the family care about you? ”

"I, my family is gone."

"Then what are you doing in Yangzhou?"

"......" I looked down at my second girl who was kneeling on the stool, blinking at my big eyes, and said softly, "I'm here to find my daughter." ”

"Looking for a daughter?"

"Well, my daughter is in Jiangnan," seeing their mothers looking at me in surprise, she added: "Jiangnanbian, I want to cross the river to find her." ”

After listening to my words, somehow, the seventh sister-in-law's face became a little solemn.

I couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "Seventh sister-in-law, what's wrong?" ”

The seventh sister-in-law pinched the bun in her hand: "You want to cross the river?" ”

"Hmm." I nodded, looked at her brows furrowed, as if she felt something, and asked, "Is there any difficulty in crossing the river?" ”
