Chapter 017: Sure enough, it's weird

"Shan'er, Shan'er......" Aunt Li didn't hear her son's response or hear his footsteps going out, and even got up and groped towards him.

I didn't know what the old lady wanted to do, Li Qingshan was afraid that she would get up and fall to herself, so she hurriedly stepped forward and lowered her body to hold her arm, "Mother, I'm here, what's wrong?" Mother. ”

Aunt Li grabbed her son's hand and asked, "What is the girl's character?" ”

"I don't know very well. You know that, too. She rarely went to the village and rarely played with us peers, and stayed in her yard all the time. Speaking of Lin Qingqian's character, Li Qingshan answered honestly although he was suspicious.

"Yes." Aunt Li nodded, thought of something and asked her son, "Then you went to the mountain to find her tonight, have you ever gotten along with her?" ”

"Yes, I found her on the mountain, and I carried her down the mountain." I don't know what the old lady is asking for, Li Qingshan replied without any scheming.

"You carried her down the mountain." When Aunt Li heard this, the gossip on her face rose.

"Well, she was injured in the leg at that time, and there was a wolf howling not far away, so I carried her down the mountain for the insurance period." Li Qingshan nodded, briefly explained today's events, and asked curiously about his mother's words, "Mother, what are you doing with this girl?" ”

"Nothing. Just ask, you go cook. Aunt Li shook her head and beckoned her son to cook.

Li Qingshan answered, told her to sit and wait, and turned around to go to the stove room to make dinner.

It can be said that the old mansion of the Lin family is here.

Wang Guihua stood at the door of the old Lin family's old house, and several villagers who could hear it said that Lin Qingqian had been found, pushed open the door and hurriedly entered.

She glanced at Lin Xiaocui, who was cooking dinner in the stove room on the side, and went straight to the main house and whispered to Xu, who was sitting on a stool teasing her four-year-old grandson Lin Gouwa, "Mother......"

Xu Shi gave the remaining sugar melon in his hand to the dog baby and asked him to play, and then beckoned her to come forward and asked, "That girl has found it?" ”

Wang Guihua glanced at her youngest son, who was holding the sugar melon in her small hand, and whispered the news she heard, "I found it." He didn't die, he was rescued from the mountain. ”

"This cheap hoof's life is really big." Speaking of these, the old Xu family had a hideous and ruthless look on his face.

After a pause, he asked Wang Guihua in a low voice, "What do you think of Xiaocui's coming back today?" ”

Wang Guihua frowned and thought for a while, "Although Xiaocui is a female baby, she is also the only female baby in our family, and her only granddaughter." However, mother, if that girl wants to tell Xiaocui about pushing her into the water, Xiaocui's marriage with the Sun family will be troublesome. Speaking of his daughter's marriage, he was worried.

Xu nodded, it can't be described as an old and spicy analysis, "With this girl's personality of being able to go to the village chief and cry and beg, let the village chief support her and ask us for food and money." If she really had definite evidence that Xiaocui pushed her into the water, I'm afraid she would have been publicized a long time ago. ”

"That's what I said. But in case she is holding back something bad, Xiaocui's marriage can be ...... "Although Xu's analysis is reasonable, thinking of the difference that the girl has given them these days, Wang Guihua still can't hide her worry.

Hurriedly grabbed her arm and pleaded in a low voice, "Mother, you have to help Xiaocui." The matter of being close to the Song family is your idea, not you, how can Xiaocui listen to our instigation to push that girl into the water. ”

Wang Guihua's surface pleading, the words were full of reminders, Xu Shi was not satisfied with Ying He, "Okay." I have a sense of proportion. Since we have taken the Song family's money, we will never return the money like this. "Speaking of the deposit given by the Song family, it was twenty taels of silver, and it was not her style to let her spit it out when the money came to her.

Although her family barely survived, the old man and her eldest son often got some money back. The family's expenses are also large, and she has stolen most of the money she took from the third child's family more than half a month ago and gave it to her younger son.

With these twenty taels of silver as the backing, the youngest son's township test in the autumn will be more guaranteed. She remembered that the last time her youngest son came back, she said that she should prepare more money so that he could go to the academy to do some work, so that he would have a better chance of being admitted to Xiucai.

After speaking, Xu Shi glanced at the dog baby who was eating sugar melon on the side and reminded Wang Guihua in a low voice, "In the future, these things must not be said in front of the dog baby, the child listens unintentionally, and it will not be good if he says it." ”

"The daughter-in-law knows. You need to be careful about this. Wang Guihua nodded, and when it came to today's events, she said to the Xu family, "But today the Sun family sent someone to carry a letter, saying that they would come to hire in a few days." Mother, what you said before can you do to add makeup to Xiaocui? ”

The Xu family gave them benefits, saying that as long as Xiao Cui pushed the girl down, he would give them five taels of silver as a dowry for his daughter after the matter was completed.

Xu Shi looked at Wang Guihua dissatisfied.

Those twenty taels are the money for the younger son to seek fame, and he must not touch it.

However, she was afraid of offending Wang Guihua because of this, she sighed and patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, Xiaocui is my only granddaughter." I, a grandmother, how can I let her marry shabby. ”

"That's good. There the daughter-in-law went to see how the meal was. Hearing her like this, Wang Guihua sighed and got up to help her daughter.

"Five taels of silver, five taels of silver, where did it come from?" Xu sat there alone, and didn't tease Lin Gouwa anymore, thinking of what Wang Guihua said about five taels of silver, and then made a difficulty.

She used all her money to pave the way for her youngest son's future imperial examinations, and others could have less, but she didn't want to take five taels of silver from that money.

After dinner, Lin Qingqian lay on his bed, Tian was beside him.

"You can sleep with this medicine, and you'll be fine tomorrow at dawn." Tian looked at his daughter who closed her eyes in front of her and said.

"Yes, thank you, mother." Lin Qingqian responded obediently and let Tian give her medicine.

The ointment was cool on the face, but soon after the medicine was applied, Lin Qingqian was unable to close it.

Tian watched her close her eyes and carefully called out to her a few times to make sure she didn't answer.

Only then did he sigh, "This kid ......"

Putting down the medicine bottle in his hand, he got up and took out another bottle from his arms, poured some water and wiped it on Lin Qingqian's face.

Then Tian gently tore off a mask as thin as a cicada's wings from Lin Qingqian's face, and the mask had a few artificial scars and red and black dots on it.

As she took off her mask, inside was a clean, white and delicate little face.

Tian cleaned her little face, and then took out a box from his arms. He opened it and took out the same mask as thin as a cicada's wings and placed it on her face.

Lin Qing's pale and fair face was replaced by the previous ugly face full of red spots and pustules, but there were still some curvatures and bumps next to it.

Tian took out another bottle from his arms, poured some potions into it, and painted all of Lin Qingqian's face.

This time, the mask and Lin Qingqian's face fit together perfectly.

"Alright. Hey, sleep well, and everything will be back to the way it was when you wake up. After Tian finished all this, he got up from the side and helped Lin Qingqian tuck the quilt and follow him out.

She didn't know it, and when she fumbled her way to sleep in the next room.

Lin Qingqian, who was in the room, opened his eyes suddenly.

Sure enough, there are oddities.

Although she closed her eyes and didn't see what Tian did on her face, she could feel what she did on her face.

The medicine that Tian gave her face for the first time was indeed the medicine that allowed her to sleep peacefully.

As for the last two potions, she could barely distinguish the ingredients in them, and as for whether she could make them, she wasn't much sure.
