Chapter 7: Mrs. Mo's Abacus

The girl wiped a handful of tears, looked up at Shen Qiushui, who was squatting down towards her, and subconsciously shrank back.

This action pulled at the wound, and the girl "hissed".

"Don't be afraid, I came here when I heard your cry."

Shen Qiushui softly comforted the girl, she had been working for several years in her previous life, and she had her own way of appeasing the patient's emotions, and with a soft smile, it was easy for people to trust her unconsciously.

The girl tilted her head and examined Shen Qiushui for a moment, as if to discern whether she was a bad person or not.

As if she had made up her mind, the girl pursed her lips and said, "Sister, I'm injured, can you take me to send me home, I will repay you." ”

"Where is your home?"

"In Wildflower Village, it's in this direction, and you can go down the mountain to the village." The girl raised her hand with some difficulty, pointing in one direction.

Only then did Shen Qiushui realize that a lot of blood and mud flowed from the girl's palm, and there were many small thorns on it.

"I'll take a look at your injuries first."

Shen Qiushui grabbed the girl's hand, subconsciously touched the other party's pulse, and then carefully observed the wound on the girl's palm.

I found that it was just some skin trauma, so I was relieved.

"Can you go on your own?"

The girl shook her head, "My feet hurt." ”

Shen Qiushui asked clearly which foot it was, and showed her the situation, only to find that the girl's foot was broken and swollen.

It was also a coincidence that some of the herbs picked by Shen Qiushui had the effect of reducing swelling and removing stasis, and she chewed them and applied them to the girl's ankles.

There were no medical equipment in the wild, so Shen Qiushui could only make a simple splint out of branches and peeled skin to fix the girl's feet.

"You carry this, I'll carry you down the mountain." Shen Qiushui handed the basket to the girl, and then squatted in front of the girl.

The girl was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, she quickly carried the basket and climbed up to Shen Qiushui's back.

The girl was only a teenager and not heavy, so Shen Qiushui easily carried the person on her back.

Following the girl's directions, we quickly descended the mountain to Wildflower Village.

Wildflower Village and Huaishu Village are separated by half of the mountain, and they are also neighboring villages.

"Sister, you're a good person." The girl lay on Shen Qiushui's back and suddenly sighed.

Shen Qiushui carried the girl on his back and went in the direction that the girl pointed out, and walked to the girl's house in a blink of an eye.

The girl's house didn't lock the door, she pushed the door behind her back, and after putting the girl on the stool, Shen Qiushui packed up the things in the back basket, left some herbs for external application, and told a few precautions before leaving.

However, the girl pulled Shen Qiushui and said that she would let Shen Qiushui wait for her brother to come back and give a reward.

Because of the girl's wounds, Shen Qiushui did not dare to make a big move.

As the two tugged, the wooden door was suddenly pushed open.

The two of them who were pulling looked at the door in unison.

A very tall man's heart appeared in the doorway.

After seeing the girl sitting on the stool, the man immediately rushed forward and pushed Shen Qiushui away.

"Luoluo, where did you go?!" The man squatted in front of the girl and held her tightly in his arms.

It took a lot of effort for the girl to push her brother away.

"Brother, you scared Sister Shen."

Only then did the man remember that there was such a person, and he looked over with a frown.

After listening to his sister's explanation, he knew that Shen Qiushui was his sister's life-saving benefactor, and if it wasn't for her help, his sister would probably be more than lucky.

The man hugged his sister and hurriedly thanked Shen Qiushui.

Both of them wanted to leave Shen Qiushui to stay and eat, but Shen Qiushui hurriedly refused.

If she doesn't go back at noon, Mrs. Mo is afraid that she will have a lot to say.

The man did not keep Shen Qiushui, but sent her out.

When he got to the door, he took out the honorarium.

Shen Qiushui didn't refuse, he accepted it directly, and then asked the man not to send it anymore, put away the silver, and went in the direction of Huaishu Village.

The Mo family at this time.

Mrs. Mo sat in the yard basking in the sun, knocking on pumpkin seeds.

I went to Mo Tianshu in the town early in the morning, and when I came back, I saw my mother sitting on a low stool leisurely, and immediately stepped forward.

The family split up unhappily last night, he was itchy about Shen Qiushui's dowry, and at this time, there was only Mrs. Mo alone in the courtyard, which was a good time to talk.

"Mother, what are you going to do about the separation?" Mo Tianshu took a stool and sat in front of Mrs. Mo.

"What is this for, you ask?" Mrs. Mo glanced at him: "Add books, it's a good day today, you go back to the house and read more books, where can my mother bother you with this kind of thing." ”

"Mother, don't worry, I have memorized everything in the book, and I will definitely give you a show next time before I come back."

Mo Tianshu opened his mouth to coax his mother, coaxed Mrs. Mo to feel comfortable physically and mentally, and praised him again and again.

Seeing that his mother was reluctant to say more about Shen Qiushui's dowry, Mo Tianshu did not ask again, but changed his statement.

"Mother, there are only a few days left before the day of repaying the debt, we have to divide the third brother and them as soon as possible." Mo Tianshu said as he observed his mother's expression.

"But this dowry ......"

"Where there is any dowry, isn't it already spent." Mo Tianshu interrupted Mrs. Mo with a smile.

Mrs. Mo's eyes immediately lit up.

She was also bluffed by Shen Qiushui's resolute appearance yesterday, and forgot about this stubble, but now that she was mentioned by her youngest son, she immediately knew what to do.

Slammed his thigh: "yes, why didn't I think about it!" Or my son is smart! ”

"It's good to be able to help my mother." Mo Tianshu smiled.

He still doesn't know how much Shen Qiushui's dowry is, but looking at his mother's appearance, it's only a lot more!

"By the way, didn't you ask me to ask the price of the two children before, I specially went to ask today, there is this number."

Mo Tianshu stretched out ten fingers to compare them, and Mrs. Mo jumped up from the stool in shock.

"So much?!"

"Yes, the price of the girl is higher, and they said that they have to come to see it in person to set the price."

"Good, good!" Mrs. Mo smiled from ear to ear.

Mo Tianshu stared at his mother's smile, a trace of calculation flashed in his eyes, and he said: "It's just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that the third brother can already stand up, if we sell the child, the third brother will fight with us......"

If Mrs. Mo hadn't heard this price, maybe she would have hesitated for a while, but now she is determined.

"What are you afraid of, I'm his mother, he can't beat me to death!" Mrs. Mo was ruthless, thinking that she could earn more than 20 taels of silver if she sold the child, so she was happy: "By the way, you said that they were going to come to see people, when will they come?" ”

"Just this afternoon."

"Cheng, wait until the two wild seeds are sold, and then talk about the separation!"

……

When Shen Qiushui came back, what he saw was the scene of Mrs. Mo and Mo Tianshu talking together and whispering.
