Chapter 30: Loss of Memory
Chao Huan was stunned, she pretended to be very surprised, and asked for warmth, but the depths of her eyes were as cold as unmelted ice, if it was the previous Heyuan, she would probably be able to detect something wrong soon, but now this Heyuan didn't feel anything.
He heard the girl's concern, heard the girl say that he had no memory, and in this chaotic situation, his heart gradually developed a trace of dependence on the girl.
But maybe it's because of his nature, even if he relies on the girl, he doesn't show it on his face, and he pretends to be calm.
"You say my name is Ji Yuan? Seriously injured and rescued by you? He Yuan was a little puzzled, he was not unfamiliar with this name, but felt that he was called this name, but he was seriously injured... For some reason, he always felt uneasy.
His face was still a little pale with the wound on his body, as if he was in some kind of panic, and at this moment, a pair of hands took his hand, which warmed his coldness and soothed some of his panic.
When Ji Yuan raised his head, he saw those eyes full of tenderness and concern, and the soft pink lips gently opened and closed.
"What's wrong? Is there anything uncomfortable? Don't worry, no one here will hurt you. ”
The words were like a feather, fluttering through his heart, and Yuan gradually let go of his uneasiness, he looked at the folded hands, and felt a little shy in his heart.
Chao Huan saw that he had calmed down, smiled slightly, and quietly withdrew her hand, she turned her head and saw a few little heads, a little helpless, "You guys, don't you have breakfast, are you still here to join in the fun." ”
It was supposed to be breakfast time, but as a result, I forgot the breakfast on the table, and several people hurriedly ran back, but fortunately it was not very cold, but it was still hot.
A few children, you say a word, I say a word, while eating, they are not from the big house, naturally they don't know what to eat, don't talk or sleep, etc., the dinner table is very lively, Chao Huan gave Heyuan a drink, and when he came out with a medicine bowl, he saw five children lively.
She smiled, and sat down at the dining table to eat after a few shouts, and after eating, there was no need to scream, and the children cleaned up by themselves, one served the dishes, one wiped the table, one washed the dishes and chopsticks, and one put it back in its place... They divided their labor and quickly cleaned up.
Chao Huan brought a meal to He Yuan, and He Yuan, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was not very able to eat greasy things, so Chao Huan brought a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickles, and He Yuan was now a child, and he quickly ate it all.
After eating, Chao Huan sat on the edge of the bed and asked him some questions.
"That is, you can't remember anything now? Don't even know where you live? ”
Ji Yuan nodded, he looked at Chao Huan cautiously, worried that the other party would abandon him.
Chao Huan smiled slightly and comforted him: "Don't worry, since you can't remember, let's stay here first, and one day you will be able to remember." ”
"My name is Zhu Shu, it's good if you call me Sister Shu, other children also call me that, well, they're playing outside, you're not injured yet, let's recuperate first."
Ji Yuan nodded, there was no objection, the two said something more, Chao Huan told him to rest first, and he took the empty bowl and prepared to leave.
When she stood up, something pulled her, and she turned her head to look, and he pulled at the corner of her clothes, blinking her eyes.
"Thank you, Sister Shu." He was a little shy, and after speaking, he pulled the quilt up and covered his face below the eyes, leaving only a pair of pitiful eyes.
Chao Huan smiled and said, "It's okay, let's have a good rest." And he left.
After she left, Ji Yuan shrank herself in the quilt, this seemed to be the room of the girl named Zhu Shu, there was a faint fragrance of medicine on the quilt, and it was the first time that Yuan knew that the medicine was not all bitter taste.
On the other side, Chao Huan, who went out, glanced at the children playing in the yard, turned around and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and when she came out, Erya came over.
"Oh, Sister Shu, why are your clothes so wet, did you just play in the kitchen?"
Chao Huan touched Erya's head and said, "Yes, I accidentally splashed water on my body just now." ”
Erya didn't care too much, raised her head and said, "Then sister should be careful next time, it's not good if she gets sick." ”
Chao Huan just smiled and didn't say anything.
The morning was busy, and in the afternoon, Chao Huan took a few children out to pick medicinal herbs again, and the nearby medicinal herbs were almost picked, and if you want to pick more, you have to go farther.
Towards the end of the evening, Chao Huan returned, and the children who stayed behind had already cooked dinner, which was already a very skilled thing for them. After dinner, Chao Huan went to see Heyuan again, he had already woken up, sitting on the bed reading a medical book.
The book is Chaohuan's, and there are a few introductory medical books in her room, which are usually used to teach a few children to read and write, probably because he was bored sitting and bored, so she showed him it.
He Yuan looked very seriously, unlike other people who were illiterate, and when he saw Chao Huan coming in, he put down the book in his hand and showed a shallow smile.
"Sister Shu, you're back."
"Well, you're reading? Are you literate? Chao Huan asked.
Ji Yuan hesitated for a moment, but still didn't hide it, and nodded.
Chao Huan didn't notice anything wrong, and said happily: "It's good, they don't know how to read, I can only teach them when I have time." By the way, if you have time, can you teach them to read? ”
If you just teach literacy, you can do it in bed, and it doesn't take much experience, so it's a very suitable job.
And for Ji Yuan, it is also to find a little value for himself, he has observed that the living conditions of several people should not be very good, they eat and drink relatively poorly, and it is a little difficult to make ends meet by raising him alone.
Ji Yuan did not refuse, Chao Huan smiled slightly, and there was the sound of a stream outside calling for dinner, and Chao Huan went out to eat.
In fact, she already has a valley and doesn't need to eat, several children are puppets, and it doesn't seem that they need to eat so much, and buying food will also consume their money, no matter how you look at it, it's not cost-effective.
But sitting at a table with these children, eating simple but delicious food, and listening to their chattering discussions, it was like a real family, and Chao Huan couldn't help but want to make this time longer.
This time, it became Ah Ruo who went to deliver the food, he smiled softly at He Yuan, didn't speak, put the rice bowl in a place that Ji Yuan could reach, and left.
When he left, Ji Yuan suddenly asked, "That, is Sister Shu busy?" ”
Ah Ruo shook his head, still didn't speak, and turned to leave.
Chao Huan was really busy, she asked Ah Ruo to send food to Ji Yuan, and she found an excuse to go to the forest next to her, at this time the sun had already set, and the moonlight was shining in the forest, which seemed a little gloomy, and the children had a lot of ghost legends, and they didn't dare to come at night, so it was convenient for Chao Huan.
As she walked, there was one more footstep behind her, but she didn't stop, just talking as she went.
"Is the master okay?"
"He's fine." Lian Yunlan replied.
"That's good..."
Chao Huan stopped walking and walking, she had excellent night vision, and when she saw the herb she was looking for in the dark, she squatted down to pick it.
"There is a team of people who seem to be eyeing you, I have seen it, it is a bandit, there are not many people, only a dozen."
"Is it mortal?"
"Yes."
Chao Huan said, "Then kill it." ”
Actually, there is nothing kind and kind, and she has already investigated her surroundings before coming here again.
There is a small village ten miles away from here, just a year ago, it was attacked by bandits, and the whole village was not spared, and even now the group of bandits is still holding the women who were abducted from the village, Chao Huan wanted to find a time to go, but he didn't expect the other party to come first.
There are not a lot of bandits, and there are almost two hundred people who have developed for several years, and the dozen or so who came this time are just some of them, but after all, they are mortals, no matter how many they come, they are all ants for cultivators.
Lian Yunlan responded, and Chao Huan was the only one left in the forest, she picked the medicinal herbs for a while, and prepared to take them to the town tomorrow to sell them for money.
She said that she was not lying about buying clothes for a few children, and besides, Yuan was not good at wearing other people's clothes all the time. This kind of medicinal herb grows in places infested by fierce beasts, and it can only be picked when the moonlight shines, otherwise the medicinal effect will be halved, so Chao Huan will come, and by the way, I will meet Lian Yunlan.
She was almost ready to leave, but when she turned around, she saw Lian Yunlan, he still looked indifferent, if it weren't for the fact that he still had a trace of blood on his body, others would have thought that he hadn't left at all.
He carried a cloth bag, and Chao Huan hesitated for a moment, thinking that it could not be the head of the bandit boss or something.
But what he thought Lian Yunlan was not so uninteresting, he handed the cloth bag to Chao Huan and left, Chao Huan took the bag, it was not very heavy.
When she opened the bag, she saw that the bag full of medicinal materials was exactly the same as the one in her hand, but the quantity was a little too much.
As I said before, this kind of medicinal herb grows in places infested by fierce beasts, and there are also places that belong to the edge, but there are not many, and if you want to collect so much, you have to go to the center at least.
So he went to kill the bandit and picked some medicinal herbs for her by the way?
Chao Huan closed the bag, smiled helplessly, and followed the moonlight back.
On the second day, Chao Huan took a small follower to the town and asked others to stay at home, although the other children were not very willing, but this is Chao Huan's rule that he can only follow alone at a time, and this time whoever is his turn is who, and there is no way to do it if he is unwilling.
Sister Zhu Shu will be angry, it will be terrible to be angry.
This time it was Ah Ruo who was followed, this child was very well-behaved, because he couldn't speak, and Chao Huan also pitied him.
went to the street, went to the time-honored pharmacy and sold the medicinal materials in his hand, Lian Yunlan took only half of the medicinal materials Chaohuan took out to sell, and the rest was ready to come again next time, otherwise there would be too many at once, and the price would be pushed down.
After selling it, there was a lot of money in hand, and it was enough to let a family of seven eat for a month, Chao Huan went out of the pharmacy and bought a sugar gourd for Ah Ruo.
The child ate one, held it in his mouth and was reluctant to chew it, and carefully held the rest in his hand for fear of touching it. Chao Huan smiled dumbly, but he was very distressed in his heart.
"It doesn't matter, everyone has a share, Ah Ruo eats it first, otherwise it won't be sweet when it's saccharified."
Ah Ruo nodded, and then took a small bite.
