After Chun Yuji and Hua left Shuofang, they didn't dare to take the official road, so they went all the way over the mountains and mountains.

On this day, they saw a village in the col on the mountain, and they were immediately excited. These days, it is very hard to eat and sleep in the open, and there is also a village in the mountains where you can rest, so you can't ask for it.

The two jumped down the slope and entered the village in a short time.

There are dozens of families in this village, which is quiet and leisurely by the mountains and rivers. The two walked into a farmhouse and wanted to buy some hot rice and soup.

The peasant couple was honest and simple, and they agreed, so they cooked wheat rice and steamed dried hares.

Sitting in the smoky house, smelling the fragrance of rabbit meat, Chun Yu shook his nose a few times, and swallowed his saliva.

Qihua turned his face to look at him and smiled.

Chun Yu lowered his head in embarrassment for a few moments, and after a while, he raised his head and found that his bright eyes were still staring at him, and he couldn't help but be scared.

Qihua was secretly amused, deliberately not looking away, and the atmosphere in the room became a little ambiguous.

From Shuofang all the way, the two gradually became acquainted, and even had a tacit understanding and intimacy like family. However, Qihua said a lot, and Chun Yu only responded, which made her very dissatisfied, so she teased this shy young medical officer from time to time.

Chun Yuji became more and more cramped, twisting his body, holding his knees with both hands, and his eyes didn't know where to look.

At this time, the peasant woman brought food and hot soup, and the two thanked them.

These days, the two of them have been nibbling on dry food and drinking mountain springs, and now they finally have hot dishes and hot meals, and they are happy in their hearts, so they can't wait to bury their heads in eating. Qihua also ignored his reserve, while eating, his mouth was still whining.

The peasant woman laughed and said, "We don't have anything else in our village, but we still have enough wheat and game." ”

Qihua swallowed hard, and said embarrassedly: "The food cooked by my aunt is too delicious." He said to Chun Yu a few times: "I'm right." ”

Chun Yu was chewing wheat rice in a few bites, and nodded again and again.

After a while, after the two of them finished eating, they took some copper coins and gave them to the peasant woman.

The peasant woman couldn't put it off, so she accepted it and asked curiously, "Our village is in the mountains, and few outsiders come in, how did you come here?" ”

Qihua glanced at Chun Yu a few times, and said hesitantly: "We, we came out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and when we saw the excellent scenery here, we walked in unconsciously." ”

The peasant woman seemed to be incomprehensible, with a look of surprise on her face, and muttered, "The scenery is excellent? I've lived here for decades, so I don't think so. ”

Qihua was speechless for a while, and laughed awkwardly a few times.

The peasant woman looked at them again and asked, "You are husband and wife, and your parents will not stop you from going out of this distant home?" ”

Qi Hua was just about to speak, but Chun Yu said first: "She is my sister-in-law, and my parents are dead." ”

Qi Hua's face turned red when he heard this, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, and glared at him fiercely. Chun Yu was stunned, thinking that she was annoyed by saying that she was a sister, so he turned his head and didn't dare to look at her.

At this moment, there was a noise outside the door, followed by a woman's terrible howl.

The peasant woman listened attentively for a while, was shocked, and said, "It's the daughter of the chief who is crying." He got up and ran out.

Qihua and Chun Yu looked at each other several times, and quickly got up and followed out.

There was a large group of people outside the door, and Qi Hua and Chun Yu squeezed in with the peasant woman.

I saw a little boy of three or four years old lying on the ground, his face was pale, his lips were blue, and he was motionless. A young plump village girl knelt beside him, crying and beating the little boy's chest.

The peasant woman hurriedly inquired what was going on, and it turned out that the little boy was jumping up and down while eating the cooking cakes, but suddenly he fell to the ground, and his breath was gone.

When Chun Yu heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the child, and without much hesitation, he turned his back to himself, wrapped his hands around the child's waist and pressed it on his body, and then squeezed it up with both hands.

The child lowered his head, soft, without breath, and his body shook incessantly with the squeezing of Chun Yuji.

The village girl was stunned for a moment when she saw Chun Yuji's actions. After a while, she suddenly jumped up, grabbed Chun Yuji's clothes and shook them, and shouted, "What are you doing, what are you doing?" ”

Seeing this, Qihua hurriedly pulled the village girl away and said, "He is a healer, saving your child." ”

Only then did the village girl come to her senses, and she sat on the ground with a limp body, beating her legs with her hands and crying.

Chun Yu gasped for breath, squeezed the child's abdomen with both hands, and said intermittently: "This is the dough blocking the throat, if you don't spit it out, you will die of exhaustion." I'm here, I'm asking him to spit out the dough. ”

Finally, the child spat out a ball of dough. Chun Yu sat down on the horse, leaned over the child on his lap, and gently patted the child's back. The child coughed violently and cried.

Chun Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said tiredly: "Okay, pick up the child." ”

Qihua stepped forward to pick up the child and handed it back to the village girl. At this time, the child's face was already bloody, and he lay on the shoulder of the village aunt, and called out weakly: "Mother." "I tilted my head and fell asleep.

When the village girl saw that the child was out of danger, she hugged him tightly, wiped her tears and thanked him uncontrollably.

Chun Yu rested for a while, gradually eased up, hugged his knees with his hands, looked on his back, and said, "Quickly take him home, so that he can rest." ”

The village girl answered, hugged the child, turned around and ran.

Chun Yuji was still sitting on the ground at this time, and Qihua pulled him up. The villagers gathered around and kept praising them. The peasant woman looked smug and said, "This is my guest." So saying, he was going to pull them back into the house.

Suddenly, the surrounding villagers dodged out of the way and made a way. Chun Yuji and Qihua thought they were making way for them, and they arched their hands and were about to thank them, but they found that the eyes of the villagers were looking behind them, and they were puzzled, so they also turned to look, only to see an elderly man walking over.

This man wore a straw hat on his head, a short shirt, and a cord on his calf, and walked past the villagers, looking a little arrogant. ”

The village woman stepped forward and stammered: "Chief, this son is a guest of my family, and it was he who saved your grandson." ”

"He's the lieutenant?" Chun Yuji glanced at each other. Chun Yu arched his hand and said: "Xiao Sheng Chun Yu has seen a few times. ”

"It's Chunyu Gongzi." The lieutenant took a step forward and grabbed his shoulders and shook him again and again, saying, "You saved my grandson, and you are the benefactor of our whole family." Let's go, go to my house. Without saying anything, he took his arm and walked towards his house.

Chun Yu turned around a few times and grinned helplessly at Qihua.

The house is a spacious courtyard. The lieutenant beckoned the two of them into the house and sat down, and called out his daughter to thank the benefactor. Only then did Chun Yuji see that this daughter was plump and upright. The daughter said a few words to the lieutenant and went back to take care of the child.

Not long after, a village woman brought wine and food. Chun Yu said: "We have already used the meal just now. ”

The lieutenant raised the wine bowl and said with a smile: "Eat it after eating, the people take food as the sky, how can they not get along with God." After saying that, he took a sip of wine and raised his bowl to signal.

The two of them were so gracious that they had to pick up the bowl and take a sip of wine.

"Captain, there will be people from the government in this deep mountain?" Chun Yu was afraid that their whereabouts would be known by the government, and thought that he was the governor and a person who dealt with the government, so he asked.

"No, very few outsiders come in here, and the government can't control it. The villagers call me the lieutenant, but they just respect me. Our ancestors came here to avoid war, isolated from the world, and did not pay food taxes, so there was no chief, just the head of a village. ”

"The lord of a village is the chief." Chun Yu smiled a few times and put his heart at ease.

Qihua looked curiously at the furnishings in the room, and his eyes stayed on a pair of antlers hanging on the wall.

The lieutenant noticed her gaze and said, "My son-in-law is Orion. Wow, died last year. ”

"Oh." Qihua looked at the antlers on the wall, hesitated for a moment, and stopped talking.

Li Chang glanced at the antlers and said, "It wasn't killed by the mountain deer, it was killed by the goshawk." ”

"Ahh Chun Yuji and Qihua were taken aback.
