In the following days, Cheng Zhongqian forgot to sleep and eat to learn knowledge.

In the past, he only read during the day, and he wouldn't read again at night when it was dark, because it was still very dark when he only lit an oil lamp, and it hurt his eyes after watching it for a long time, and Cheng Zhongqian couldn't stand it.

But for a few days he sat at the table, and watched for a long time by the faint candle flame.

In such an atmosphere, Lingbao also learned more energetically, often holding a branch to write and draw on the ground, and then sitting on a small bench, chanting in style.

When the people in the village chatter, it is inevitable that they will bring a few words to Cheng Zhongqian, and they will say with emotion: "Reading people are good, you look at Lingbao, went to his house, and now she is literate, last time I saw Cheng Dalang teach her to use a brush!" ”

"I look at it, Lingbao's temperament is different, there are people like readers!"

"Even if there is something in the future, she doesn't have to worry about finding a job, but she has a future compared to us."

Zhang glanced at Wu and said deliberately, "It's not!" If you want me to say, some people just have bad eyes and mistake pearls for fish eyes! Hahahaha. ”

Wu's face was as black as charcoal.

Zhang sighed and hurriedly said, "Jinzi mother, I didn't mean you." "You're shameless!

The others were silent, but they all looked at Wu with a dark disdain in their eyes.

During the famine years, the sale of children and daughters can be seen everywhere.

But now it's not that she can't afford to eat, she doesn't even want a daughter, it's a piece of meat that fell from her body!

Anyway, they can't do such a black-hearted thing!

Wu left directly, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he went around to the thatched house of the Cheng family, and saw Lingbao reciting poems in the yard, and his heart ached.

But no matter how unbalanced she is, she can't do anything!

"Big Tiger daughter-in-law, what are you doing here?"

The village chief's voice suddenly sounded behind him, and the resentful Wu was startled, forced an ugly smile, and said, "...... Village Chief, I'll take a look at Youling. ”

The village chief looked at her strangely and said, "Don't disturb Cheng Langjun when it's okay." ”

"Hey, hey." Wu Shi smiled dryly, "I'll leave now." ”

The village chief stared at her back and disappeared, and then carried his things into the courtyard.

"Lingbao, Erlang, your aunt has steamed some food, give you a taste."

Lingbao ran over, leaned over to the small basin and smelled it: "It's so fragrant!" ”

"Hahaha, huh? Your aunt is the best at doing this. The village chief said to Cheng Yi, "When the time comes, just get some garlic paste and mix it, it's delicious." ”

Cheng Yi took it to the kitchen, poured it into his own basin, and covered it with something.

Ling Bao suddenly asked, "Uncle, what's wrong with your hands?" ”

The village chief looked down and said casually: "Oh, this, I don't know where to pierce it." ”

The skin of the village chief's index finger is dark red and abnormally swollen.

"It must hurt, uncle." Lingbao showed an unbearable expression, it hurts to look at it.

The village chief said, "It really hurts. I didn't hurt so badly a few days ago, but it's getting more and more painful these days, and I can't sleep well because of the pain. ”

No wonder the village chief has a dark color under his eyes.

"If it's not good in a few days, I'll have to let my grandson show me." The village chief muttered, "It's really strange, I didn't hurt so much when I was pricked before." ”

Ling Bao thought for a while and said, "Uncle Village Chief, can I take a look?" ”

What can't be seen here, the village chief stretched out his hand without even thinking about it.

Ling Bao carefully held his uncle's hand, looked closer, and suddenly said "Huh", and said, "Uncle, are you pierced by wood, there is a small wooden thorn in it." ”

"I'll see."

"This is it." Lingbao pointed out to him.

It's a pity that the village chief looked and looked, but he still didn't see it, but he remembered that he did move wood that day, and it is estimated that he was accidentally pricked at that time.

"Hey, it's just a little wooden thorn, then go home and let your aunt pick a needle for me." The village chief said that it was also the husband and wife who had bad eyes.

didn't hear a response, the village chief lowered his head and saw Lingbao who nodded his cheeks and didn't know what he was pondering.

"Ahh

Ling Bao suddenly screamed, and without waiting for the village chief to ask what he remembered, he said, "Uncle village chief, wait for me, I'll be back soon!" ”

After saying that, he ran out of the smoke, and the king followed dutifully.

Lingbao looked around, his eyes lit up, and he pulled it out and ran back.

Uncle the village chief waited for a while in confusion, and when he saw Lingbao who ran back, he was holding a mother-in-law in his hand, and said suspiciously: "Lingbao, do you want to eat this?" This one is starting to get a little old. ”

Ling Bao shook his head: "No, Uncle Village Chief, this can cure the injury on your hand." ”

The village chief was very surprised: "Isn't this a mother-in-law?" Can wild plants still cure diseases? ”

Lingbao said yes, she smashed her mother-in-law Ding with a mortar, she had little strength, and she pounded it slowly, so Cheng Yi took it over and helped her pound it.

After mashing, Lingbao carefully applied it to the village chief's index finger.

The village chief didn't dare to move: "That's good?" ”

"Well, Uncle Wait, Village Chief."

After a while, the village chief found that his fingers were really not so painful and unbearable, and the redness and swelling had disappeared a lot.

"God!" The village chief turned his hand over and over again, and smiled on his dark face, "Lingbao will be cured now?" That's amazing. ”

He wants his grandson to go to school, not only can he be literate, but also healed, and then there is no need to invite a doctor for anything, and his own family will solve it!

Ling Bao smiled embarrassedly.

That day, when I was watching the introduction of my mother-in-law, there happened to be a case that was very similar to the village chief's uncle, so she remembered it.

I didn't expect it to work!

Lingbao was also very excited, she felt so happy, she was going to heal the village chief's uncle's fingers!

It's worth it, the village chief thought with a smile.

When he returned, he noticed that the redness had subsided a bit. The village chief ran out again, dug up a mother-in-law by himself, and applied it with his own hands.

The village chief's daughter-in-law looked funny, like a child.

In this way, after a few days, the village chief's fingers were completely swollen and as smooth as before.

Lingbao witnessed the magic of her mother-in-law, and she was even more keen to soak her father in water, but she never passed when Cheng Zhongqian was reading, and the little girl had a long memory.

Cheng Zhongqian was a little uncomfortable, but he quickly forgot about it.

Because March has arrived, Cheng Zhongqian is going to the county seat to take the exam.

That night, Lingbao had another dream.

In the dream, my father went to the county seat with his schoolbag on his back, and when he passed a certain section of the road, a person suddenly appeared in the tall grass, pressed his father to the ground without saying anything, and rummaged through his bag.

Daddy was very angry and tore up with the man, but the man grabbed a stone and smashed it on Daddy's head, and immediately the blood flowed profusely.

The man picked up his father's bag and ran away, and his father was lying on the ground, his face covered in blood, and soon he was dead.

Only those unwilling eyes are still open.
