Liu Meilan bit her lower lip very hard. But the pain on her lips couldn't match the loss in her heart, her eyes were a little dull, and her heart was empty. looks listless, and looks very aggrieved. Xu Dang originally pinned his head to the side, but seeing Liu Meilan like this, he stopped playing.

He turned his head back and crouched honestly. Suddenly, Liu Meilan felt that her fingertips were abnormally painful, so she frowned and put the lid of the medicine pot in her hand on top of the medicine pot. It looked like it was hot, but she didn't say a word. Xu Dang noticed this, glanced at Liu Meilan's hand, and saw that she was on top of her knees as she had just been.

I didn't care much, but put my hand on it. Only a thin white cloth was placed on the lid of the medicine pot by Liu Meilan, although it was outside, it still felt relatively hot to the touch. Xu Dang just left it on it for a while, and then hurriedly took off his hand, "It's so hot, you can go up and grab it directly" Xu Dang's voice was louder.

Liu Meilan was so frightened by him that she chuckled and gently avoided it. "I mean, in the future, don't keep putting the cloth on it when you boil the medicine again, it's easy to burn." Realizing that he was wrong, Xu Dang hurriedly changed his posture again, "But this is what Renjia Lang told me above the Chinese medicine prescription, saying that I should put a white cloth when cooking." ”

"This is what Lang Zhong told you?" Xu Dang was stunned, does this Lang Zhong still remember this in the prescription given to people to see a doctor? Why don't they have this over there. Suspicious, Liu Meilan nodded honestly, "This is what Lang Zhong gave me, and I put it in the medicine when I left." He said let me spread a white cloth so that I wouldn't hurt my hand when I took the medicine. ”

When Xu Dang heard this explanation, his mouth immediately twitched involuntarily a few times. The child suddenly became unintelligent, what is going on with the ghost? He asked himself. Liu Meilan looked at his speechless expression and thought that he didn't believe what he said, so he ran to the kitchen and brought him the prescription written by Ah Fu, and when he came back, he said while running.

"Uncle Xu, look at it, I didn't lie to you, this was really written by Lang Zhong, you can see if it's true." After finishing speaking, she had already run in front of Xu Dang and was about to be handed it to him. Xu Dangzai carefully looked at all the things on it, well, there are many legs, there is no face, and most importantly, the white cloth is spread on it.

For a while, Xu Dang felt as if everything around him had been unconsciously fixed. It's just a blink of an eye, and the resentment that comes out of nowhere in one breath is held straight on his chest, and he can't go up or down. is holding it alive like this, and what he is holding is extremely uncomfortable and unbearable.

He wanted to say a few words, but he didn't know where to start. He could only squeeze his mouth into a line, a line that could not see his lips. "Uncle Xu, why did you suddenly stop talking, is there something wrong with this prescription, or is there something wrong with what I did, is there something wrong?" As soon as Liu Meilan's words fell, Xu Dang took a deep breath.

He opened his mouth several times, but never a word came out. Now he just wants to cry, but he can't. Suddenly, he suddenly felt that he was a little exhausted, and in a trance, he recalled what his master had told him, "If you are also a teacher in the future, you will be able to understand the painstaking work of being a teacher, but you really can't control it." ’

"This is the rotation of feng shui, and now the time has come, turn to me." Xu Dang sighed, Liu Meilan stood beside him and listened in the clouds, "What retribution, what feng shui turns, Uncle Xu, what are you talking about?" Xu Dang lowered his head, which was so heavy that it couldn't be heavier, and shook his head head-on towards the prescription.

He shook his head with a loud motion, as if to shake all his troubles out. "Eh", Liu Meilan moved half a step forward, her hand raised slightly upward, and she wanted to take the prescription back. But she paused again, making people a little confused. "Uncle Xu, did I do something wrong?" She asked, Xu Dangmeng looked up.

He handed the prescription in his hand in the direction of Liu Meilan, and Liu Meilan silently took the prescription. Liu Meilan, who was ready to listen to people's words, suddenly realized that something was wrong when she saw Xu Dang rubbing her face with both hands. I saw that after Xu Dang handed the prescription to Liu Meilan, he began to cover his face with both hands and take a deep breath.

The voice was very loud, and Liu Meilan seemed to be able to hear the sound of his breathing. Seeing this, Liu Meilan directly suppressed the sentence she was about to come out of, and understood that Xu Dang was so angry with her, at this time, where did she dare to say half a word. Xu Dang put down his hands and looked downish on the world, "That's right, the prescription is indeed true." ”

"Then why," you would have this expression, Liu Meilan originally wanted to ask the latter question, but considering the attitude just now, she still held back the following words. Xu Dang was silent for a while, and told himself in his heart to be calm, now that the two of them have not apprenticed, it would be bad if they didn't pay attention to giving people popularity and ran away, "You said this white cloth, isn't it." ”

"Tsk, isn't there another way to use it? For example, when boiling medicine, do not cover the top of the medicine pot, or take a new piece for later use. Xu Dangdao, Liu Meilan thought about it, it seems that this is indeed the truth. So, she went straight to the door, ready to take off the white cloth on the medicine pot, Xu Dang saw it, and hurriedly grabbed her evil hand.

At this moment, he didn't even have a word. "What are you doing with this cloth, just go get another piece for spare. Don't boil this medicine yet, I'll pack up and go to the house for a while to boil it again. Saying that, he stood up, Liu Meilan obediently took a step back, Xu Dang looked at this favorite apprentice, although he knew that it might not be easy in the future.

But I don't have much dislike for this apprentice, "You remember to take more, don't take less." Liu Meilan nodded stunned, turned around and prepared to take what Xu Dang said. Xu Dang put out the fire under the medicine pot, and after Liu Meilan brought the white cloth, Xu Dang simply put the white cloth on top of the medicine pot, picked it up and walked to the kitchen.

Liu Meilan took the remaining white cloth and followed behind him. As soon as Xu Dang walked to the door, he collided with Suning, who was about to go out. Seeing that she was going to leave, Xu Dang didn't think about it, so he glanced behind him, ready to make way for Suning when no one was around. Coincidentally, Liu Meilan happened to follow to the door, and Xu Dang's head was parted.

Just a look, Liu Meilan immediately understood. She quickly moved to the side, leaving Xu Liu a place to retreat. Xu Dang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that Liu Meilan didn't seem to be so stunned, so the burden was reduced a little bit. Xu Dang walked out of the door, and then looked into the house, Suning was still there.

It's just that it's different from the position just now, and she has also stepped back a bit. It seems that he is thinking of leaving a place for himself, Xu Dang thought. It's just that now he has already withdrawn, can he go in again? Xu Dang looked at the humble house silently, the position of the stove and the wall looked like it was only a big vat and a foot away.

If you go in again, wouldn't it be inconvenient. It always feels strange to be so close. "Mrs. Liu, I'm at the door, you just have to come out." Suning didn't say anything and hurriedly walked out of the house. "Lady Liu is good", after Xu Dang's questioning, he entered the kitchen, and Suning pulled Liu Meilan aside and asked her forcibly.

"Whose medicine pot is Xu Langjun holding in his hand," Liu Meilan thought something was wrong, and suddenly dragged herself over, it turned out to be this. "It's our family's medicine pot, but don't worry, Uncle Xu is here to help our family. Mother, you also know that I don't know how to boil medicine, so I can only ask for advice. Liu Meilan grabbed Su's arm, "Uncle Xu is good." ”

When Suning heard her say this, he was a little relieved. She turned around and put one of Liu Meilan's hands in the palms of her two palms, "Lan'er, then you look at it more, the work on my mother's side is not finished yet." She instructed, Liu Meilan nodded, and when Suning saw that she agreed, she didn't care about anything more, and walked into the house to embroider the fabric.

By the time Liu Meilan entered the kitchen again, Xu Dang had already made the fire. Liu Meilan walked to the front of the medicine pot and looked down, I have to say that the flames that Xu Dang has made now are much more than what he has just made. "Uncle Xu, could it be that there is a way to burn this fire?" She asked, and Xu Dang scratched the back of his head helplessly.

"You go and close the door first, and then I'll tell you something else." Xu Dang instructed, Liu Meilan listened to him, walked to the door, and closed the door. Xu Dang's hand to place the firewood suddenly stopped, and after a while, he continued to add firewood, "There is no way to burn the fire, you just need to remember one thing, the wind in the house is good to burn." ”

"Why is it good to burn when the wind is small, isn't it good to add more firewood", Liu Meilan was puzzled, and the rebuttal was also said directly, without thinking about it at all. It's just because she is often like this, although it is said that it is not good to burn outside, but her practice is generally to add more firewood, add more firewood, and the fire will naturally be bigger. Xu Dang raised his eyes when he heard this, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

"Who told you this, you can burn a fire in the yard in the third winter, and add more firewood when the fire is small." Xu Dang asked, Liu Meilan was suddenly stunned, yes, who taught me this. She frowned, thought for a while, and replied, "This is what my father told me that you can light a fire in the yard during the third winter, and said that if the fire is not big, you can add more firewood." ”

Liu Meilan said, but the more she spoke, the quieter she became. Xu Dang probably understood, he also sighed, how could a person like Liu Meilan meet such a father. He rubbed the tip of his nose and explained to Liu Meilan, "In the third winter, it was windy outside. You don't burn a fire outside, waste wood. I seem to remember that you went up the mountain to get the firewood in your house. ”

"Got it", Liu Meilan muttered, a picture of making a mistake and admitting it made Xu Dang unable to say anything cruel. He explained, "You look at this medicine, although everyone can boil it, but the heat is also the key, how long to boil the medicine is very testing, sometimes not too long, sometimes not too short, depending on the medicinal materials, grasp the heat can bring out the effect of the medicine." ”

"I see, so is practice makes perfect?" Liu Meilan asked, Xu Dang shook his head, "No, I don't know about them, in short, my family is opinion." As soon as his voice fell, the smile on Liu Meilan's face instantly couldn't be hung up, who told her just now that there was no way to light the fire, and now who opened his mouth, saying that there is a way to burn the fire.

Xu Dang, who realized that he might have said something wrong, pretended to cough twice, "There is a way to boil medicine, practice makes perfect, that is Lang Zhongcai's work." He was a little weak, and he could clearly feel that he was so nervous that his heart tightened a little, and even his breathing was slightly hindered, "This medicine is going to be ready soon, and it will come out in a while." ”

It's going to be fine soon, Liu Meilan stared at the medicine pot curiously. Sure enough, just as Xu Dang said, it didn't take long for him to open the lid. When it first opened, a puff of gas spewed upwards violently, mixed with a strong medicinal gas, so that Liu Meilan couldn't help but retreat a little. Xu Dang looked at her reaction, just chuckled and didn't say much.

"The medicine is ready, you prepare a bowl and bring it over, and after I pour it out, you bring the medicine to your mother to drink." He instructed, Liu Meilan walked to the stove, took a clean bowl from it, walked to Xu Dang, and handed the bowl to him. Xu Dang took it, he put the bowl on the ground, picked up the medicine pot with a white cloth cover, and carefully poured the medicine into the bowl.

Because there are a lot of medicinal herbs in it, you can only take your time, not too quickly, and it is easy to pour the herbs into the bowl too quickly. Liu Meilan squatted down, her eyes staring directly at the medicine flowing out of the herbs. Although he couldn't see it very clearly, just looking at Xu Dang without a hint of pause, he felt very powerful, "Master, this practice makes perfect?" ”

"What did you say?" Xu Dang asked, feeling that it was almost poured, so he put down the medicine pot. "I mean, practice makes perfect? That's what it was poured on. Liu Meilan explained, hearing this, Xu Dangben was still a little confused, and it all disappeared in an instant, "This is okay, you go and bring the medicine to your mother first, and then come over to discuss." ”

"Discuss?" Liu Meilan asked, Xu Dang didn't say anything to explain, "Well, let's discuss." Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you here. After speaking, Xu Dang handed a piece of cloth that felt relatively clean to Liu Meilan, "The bowl will be a little hot, if you hold this, it won't be hot." Remember, this is to be put on your hand first, take this cloth to serve, don't go empty-handed. ”

Liu Meilan took the towel, picked up the medicine bowl, opened the door and walked into the house. Suning heard the sound, looked up, and began to busy with the work in his hand again. Liu Meilan put the medicine on the table, walked in front of Suning, and squatted down, "Mother, the medicine is ready, it's just a little hot." I'll put it on the table for you, and if you're better in a moment, you'll drink the medicine first. ”

"Okay, I got it." Suning finished the last embroidery and put the things aside, "Lan'er, if you have anything on your mind in the future, you must remember to tell your mother, your father is not at home these days, and our mother can also talk about your heart." As she spoke, she put her hand on the back of Liu Meilan's hand, and although Liu Meilan had doubts in her heart, she still nodded in acquiescence.

She just thought it was Suning who couldn't tell the difference again, but what she didn't know was that Suning was worried about her. I saw Suning take a deep breath, raise her hand and touch Liu Meilan's head, "Okay, mother, you're still busy, you can go out and play by yourself." Suning took out her embroidery again, and Liu Meilan took the embroidery, "Mother didn't just embroider once." ”

"It's only embroidered once, what's wrong." Suning stretched out her hand and pulled the embroidery out of Liu Meilan's hand, and Liu Meilan didn't dare to grab it again, because she knew how precious these things were Suning. "But you've already finished embroidering", Liu Meilan turned her target to the one on the table, Suning has always had a habit, that is, to embroider it and put it on the table.

Wait until you have cleaned up before taking the embroidery away. Because she is once a day, and after finishing it, she takes it away in time, and no one at home uses this table, so this place is always empty, so once there is embroidery in this place, it means that Suning has finished it, Liu Meilan doesn't understand why Suning changed from once to twice.

It's easy to do, but I found myself a job. Suning didn't want to say the reason like this, "Suddenly I want to embroider more, leave me alone, go out and play." Suning ignored her and continued to embroider. Liu Meilan wanted to stop it, but she was afraid of hurting Suning, so she had no choice but to turn around and leave, and when she got to the door, she didn't forget to look back at Suning.

After the squeak of the door closing, Suning raised her head and looked at the closed door, her chest was stuffy for a while, and she was still tingling in it unconsciously. Ever since she walked out of the medical hall, He Langzhong's words have been echoing in her mind. She also wants to thank that she followed Liu Meilan to the hospital this time, otherwise she wouldn't know.

Let's just say that Liu Meilan looked like an old man at a young age, and it turned out that no one was playing with her. When I went to the street today, I realized that these people avoided her one by one when they saw her, and they ran as far as they could. That's it, how could she be happy. Thinking back to when I was a child, I never had less fun, although my brother died early.

But there are people in the house to play with her, even if life is not satisfactory now, it is better to have a good idea. And what should Liu Meilan do, it's all because she has only taken care of herself all these years. Thinking about it, tears flowed from his eyes. She raised her sleeve and wiped it, but the more she wiped her tears, the more she came, and one more fell on the embroidery.

Suning hurriedly moved the embroidery aside, sniffed, and in the dim candlelight, she clearly saw that her tear was deeply rooted in the embroidery, forming a small mass of darkly colored 'stains'. She habitually looked at the place where Guanyin was placed at home, and couldn't think of what she was going to do, so she just watched and stared quietly, silent.
