"Old Immortal Grandpa? Can you wake up? ”

Chu He shouted wildly in his heart, wanting to wake up Ding Chunqiu, and then suck all these five bastards dry.

It's a pity that shouting like this certainly has no effect, and Ding Chunqiu will never wake up because of this.

Looking at the five Shengguo soldiers who were laughing around him, Chu He took a deep breath to calm his gradually irritable mood.

Chu He pointed to his face, and then pointed to the medicine in his hand, and made a gesture of begging them to let him go quickly, so that he could go home and decoct the medicine.

The squad leader at the head restrained his smile, stared at Chu He's eyes, and said viciously: "I said, if you don't leave anything, you're ready to leave?" In my Dasheng Wangshi's territory, there is such a good thing? ”

Chu He scolded secretly in his heart, but on the surface, he didn't dare to show the slightest disobedience, he only hated that he had just crossed over, and he hadn't figured out the cultivation system of this world yet, and when Yan Chen woke up, he must ask carefully, so as not to be bullied by this kind of little minion again.

Looking at the greedy eyes of the soldier captain, Chu He had to reluctantly reach into his arms and take out the money bag containing broken silver, but as soon as he took it out, he was snatched away.

The team leader put the money bag in his hand and checked it, feeling that the weight was okay, opened it again and looked inside, and then nodded his head lightly.

"Well, it's okay, enough to invite a few of our brothers to a drink. Alright, get out of here, and don't let the grandpas see you again. By the way, go back and heal the willows on your face before you go out, and let Lao Tzu see you again, be careful that I cut off your two lips and drink them. ”

The Sheng soldiers surrounding him laughed again.

At this time, Chu He had only one thought in his heart, to keep in mind the appearance of these five people, and when they met again in the future, the new hatred and the old accounts would be counted together.

"." After speaking, the team leader led his four pawns to find a place to drink.

Chu He finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly walked towards Ma Da Niang's house not far away, so as not to have any more accidents.

When he arrived at the door, Chu He did not stop, but walked a few more households and stood at the door of the house for a while.

This is because Chu He was afraid that the patrol team would really suspect that he was harboring the wounded soldiers of the Qianguo country, fishing for law enforcement, and followed behind, so he waited for him to return home and took the stolen goods in one fell swoop.

As a result, Chu He waited for a pillar of incense, and he didn't see the shadows of those people, so he put down his hanging heart.

"Why was this Qushui County snatched back by these wine bags and rice bags again?"

Because of Yan Chen, Chu He's impression of the Qianguo soldiers is not bad, but now that I think about it carefully, this county town was robbed back by others as soon as it was captured, and it is estimated that compared with Sheng Guobing, it is half a catty and eight taels.

Walking back to Ma Da Niang's house, Chu He looked left and right vigilantly, and only after making sure that there was no one again did he gently pull the door knocker.

"Who?"

As soon as Chu He knocked on the knocker, Aunt Ma inside spoke, obviously waiting for him behind the door.

"Aunt Ma, it's me, Xiao Chu."

The door immediately opened a crack, Chu He flashed in, and Aunt Ma hurriedly closed the door.

"Oh, I'm worried, I was listening here just now, and there were several waves of patrols outside. Hey, what's wrong with your face? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm allergic."

Aunt Ma looked at Chu He's eyes with tears faintly, she really regarded these two young men from the enemy country as her own juniors.

Chu He sighed in his heart and comforted the old woman a few words.

At this time, Yan Chen, who was lying in the room, was still unconscious, but fortunately, his deteriorating physical condition was controlled by Hua Tuo's emergency surgery.

The next thing is decoction, Chu He has never had experience in this area, but Aunt Ma will, there is also a casserole for decoction at home.

The old woman found a casserole, washed it with water, opened a packet of medicine and poured it in, scooped two more scoops of well water, put it on the stove and began to fry the medicinal soup.

"Xiao Chu, Lang Zhong said that this medicine is fried over a high fire or a small fire?"

This time Chu He was stunned, and he didn't tell him about it before he fell asleep, so he had to speak: "Auntie, Lang Zhong said that it is a conventional frying method." ”

"Oh, then I'll boil it on high heat first, and then fry it slowly over low heat, these medicines are not cheap at first glance, but they can't be wasted."

Chu He said yes again and again.

Taking advantage of the leisure time of decoction, Chu He sat on the threshold of the stove room, his body facing outward, looking at the gradually brightening sky, while pulling the old woman with home.

Looking at the simple but very neat furnishings in the courtyard, Chu He asked, "Aunt Ma, what do you usually live on?" ”

"Our family has an acre and a half of land in the western suburbs, and it has been quite smooth in recent years, planting some grain, vegetables and fruits, and our family can be regarded as self-sufficient by relying on it."

"But since my husband and son were requisitioned to the cultivation palace two years ago, my family's land has been deserted, and I, an old lady, really can't do such heavy work, so I can only rent it out."

"In an ordinary year, my land could be rented for at least ten taels of silver a year, but now the men of every family have been expropriated, and there is wasteland everywhere, so the land is worthless. Only our richest man in Qushui County, Hao Rich Man, received land, and gave a rent of 27 yuan a year for one acre of land. ”

Chu He was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "That little money...... Is it enough to live? ”

Aunt Ma grinned and laughed silently.

"I can also do some craftsman's work for people." As she spoke, she stretched out her finger and pointed to the bamboo hats and bamboo fences piled up in the yard, and said with a little pride: "Old lady, I can support myself." ”

The two fell into a long silence, save for the herbs boiled in the casserole, making occasional noises.

"Actually, the housekeeper of Hao's rich family has been here several times and wants to spend money to buy my family's land. I went to the coffin shop to see it, and the money from the sale of the land was just enough to make a thin coffin, but ......"

"But I still want to wait for my husband...... And my son...... I always felt like they weren't dead. ”

"Auntie...... Rest assured, they're not dead, and they're probably on their way back now. ”

The old woman secretly wiped her eyes twice, "Yes, yes, they are definitely coming back." ”

After about half an hour, the medicine was finally fried, and the old woman poured out half a bowl of black medicinal soup from the casserole.

Just smelling it from afar, the Chu River will stay away. In his last life, the thing he was most afraid of was drinking Chinese medicine soup, and for the pampered Chu Gongzi, there was not much difference between drinking Chinese medicine and drinking poison.

Aunt Ma sat on the edge of the bed with a medicine bowl, and sent the medicinal soup into Yan Chen's mouth little by little with a small spoon, and the half bowl of medicine was fed for a long time before it finally bottomed out.

When the sky was bright, Aunt Ma let out a low cry and woke up Chu He, who was leaning against the door frame and dozing off.

"Xiao Chu, come on, wake up."

Chu He hurriedly ran into the house, and saw Yan Chen, who was lying on the bed, looking at him sideways, and his mental state was actually not bad, which made him praise Hua Tuo's prescription again and again in his heart.

"He Chu? Oh brother, I knew you couldn't leave me alone, from now on, I will have a lifelong friendship with you! ”

"My name is Chu He."

"Oh, from now on, I will have a lifelong friendship with you Lao Chu!"

……

"By the way, what's wrong with your face? Is this the flower willow on the face? ”
