CHAPTER XLIV

Sure enough, something happened the next day.

The people who came to visit the door have lined up in a long line, and the villagers avoided Mei Sanniang in the past, but now it is good, and they are all standing at the door of Mei Sanniang's house.

There is nothing to do on weekdays, and there is nothing to do with birds, not to mention how quickly the attitude of asking for someone to change.

After Mei Sanniang opened the door, a group of people seemed to be robbing, and one of the men even pushed down Mei Sanniang, and then searched the house, but found nothing.

The noise of this group of people frightened Mei Xue's nerves, and she cried and returned to the church.

Mei Sanniang's gloomy face instantly became angry, and she picked up the rolling pin like crazy and knocked it indiscriminately, and kept yelling in her mouth: "Turtle Sun, white-eyed wolves, burglary." ”

"Roll the calves for me one by one. Bullied me as a weak woman, and she was grabbing things in the open. ”

Mei Sanniang scolded while waving a rolling pin.

The others didn't get beaten, and they didn't know how ruthless Mei Sanniang was, and they were beaten by Mei Sanniang one by one and shouted.

Eventually, the group withdrew from the house.

"Mei Sanniang, do you have medicine at home?"

The other party's tone was tough, and he yelled at Mei Sanniang.

Mei Sanniang didn't expect this group of people to be so arrogant, and it turned out to be such an attitude to ask for medicine, obviously coming to grab medicine.

Mei Sanniang was naturally not to be outdone, and said firmly: "You are robbing one by one, openly?" Aren't you afraid to sit in the game? ”

Unexpectedly, someone threatened: "Mei Sanniang, no one in the bureau has been in the bureau recently, where can you still manage your sesame big thing, I don't know how many people in the bureau have been lying down." ”

"I heard that you have medicine, why don't you take it out and divide it?"

Mei Sanniang stared at this group of people, she had to remember the faces of this group of people, the first time she saw these unfamiliar faces, she could know that she had medicine, and eighty percent of it was the information leaked out by Li Gu.

"Medicine? What medicine? ”

Seeing that Mei Sanniang was still pretending to be stunned, the man warned: "Mei Sanniang, don't think we don't know, there must be medicine in your house, you say, where is the medicine, otherwise don't blame us for turning your house upside down." ”

Mei Sanniang naturally didn't let them, why let them rob in public, people really do anything when they go to a desperate place.

"If you dare, if you step into my house one more step, don't blame me for beckoning you with a kitchen knife."

As soon as Mei Sanniang became fierce, the men were a lot more timid, but they didn't expect that there were still people who liked to die, thinking that Mei Sanniang would not dare to use a knife.

"Mei Sanniang, you are breaking the law."

Seeing this, Mei Sanniang yelled: "Robbery! ”

As soon as this voice roared, a sharp voice came out of the courtyard, with a piercing voice, it would be a pity that Mei Sanniang's voice was not taken to soar the high notes.

After a few words, Xu Erzhu immediately rushed to Mei Sanniang's house, and when he saw so many unfamiliar faces, his nerves instantly tensed.

He asked, "What do you all do?" What are you doing here? ”

Xu Erzhu saw that this group of people was not good, so he gave Mei Sanniang a look.

Immediately afterwards, a man in the crowd asked kindly: "Let's ask Mei Sanniang to buy some medicine, who are you?" ”

Xu Erzhu frowned and refused.

"There is no medicine."

The men didn't believe it, they looked at Mei Sanniang, pointed at her and said, "We all saw that there was medicine in her house, why is everyone sick now, sit idly by, is this still Li Zhantang's house?" In the past, we all came to take care of Li Zhantang's business, and his family built this house, otherwise they would still live in a thatched house. ”

"This is good, I have a serious illness and want to ask for medicine, but Li Zhantang's family doesn't give medicine?"

"Yes!" Mei Sanniang told everyone: "Give money, now there is a shortage of medicines, the price is three times that of before, if you want to buy it, I have a little bit at home, some dandelions, mint, coptis, do you want it?" ”

At this time, everyone hesitated, this was obviously the starting price in situ, and Mei Sanniang did not sincerely sell it.

"You're going to grab the medicine, right?" One of the men replied.

Not to be outdone, Mei Sanniang asked everyone: "I sell medicine, you buy medicine, the medicine is mine, shouldn't I set the price?" Whether you buy it or not is your own, and it is not my obligation to sell medicine. ”

"Then you sold it to Li Gu, why didn't you collect money, but now it's a trick."

I don't know who was about to say something, Mei Sanniang nodded and understood.

"Of course I take money, these medicinal materials are stored little by little after I worked hard to dig up the mountain, I didn't say that it was given to Li Gu for free, did you hear Li Gu say that I gave out medicine for free?"

"My family looks so rich that you all come to me to grab medicine?"

"My family is not a landlord, let alone a big wrongdoer, if you think that my Mei Sanniang is a bully and wants to rob my family's things, your face has been deeply remembered by me."

"I want to blatantly grab something, step over my Mei Sanniang's corpse."

Mei Sanniang went into the kitchen and picked up the knife and rushed out, holding up the kitchen knife to startle everyone.

"Come on! It's a big deal: the fish die and the net is broken, and the family is ruined! Isn't it life-saving? You all came to grab the medicine, instead of staying in the world and suffering from illness, it is better for me Mei Sanniang to help you. ”

"If you dare to come near my house again, don't blame me for being unkind."

Mei Sanniang waved her knife and danced, "You guys don't leave yet!" Waiting to be knifed? ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone fled, even Xu Erzhu sweated for Mei Sanniang, Sanniang was too rigid, although he was not afraid of being ruthless, but he was still a little afraid when he thought about it.

"Sanniang, do you know all these people?"

Mei Sanniang shook her head and breathed a sigh of relief, she really didn't know how these people dared to be so blatant and come over to grab things in broad daylight.

"Li Gu knows, right?"

Xu Erzhu knew Li Gu, Li Gu, a man who was a well-known loser.

"What's wrong, Sanniang?"

Mei Sanniang told Xu Erzhu: "Yesterday, Li Gu begged me to give him medicine, but after giving it, he didn't give money, and called so many people to grab the medicine." ”

Xu Erzhu thought about it, Li Gu was a proper loser, how could he take medicine for the old man in the family.

"Sanniang, I'm afraid that this Li Gu doesn't want to make a windfall, this kind of wealth is all exchanged for other people's lives."

As soon as Mei Sanniang heard Xu Erzhu say this, eighty percent of these people did not buy medicine sincerely, but took the medicine and then resold it, and now it is difficult to find a medicine, and she really dare not leave no one in this house, and she is afraid of leaving two children.

"Cher, it's okay, come out."

Mei Sanniang found Xue'er hiding in the house early in the morning, and she dared to call Xue'er out after waiting for them to leave.

"Mother." Mei Xue's crying voice remembered that she was really frightened just now.

Mei Sanniang looked at the child, and could only ask Xu Erzhu: "Brother Erzhu, I'm afraid that those people will come back to find trouble, can you keep me at home, don't you have a big yellow dog in your house?" Bring the dog over, if someone still wants to grab the medicine, just close the door and let the dog go. ”

Xu Erzhu nodded, Mei Sanniang's requests have always been responsive.

Immediately afterwards, Mei Sanniang looked at Xue'er, what she couldn't worry about the most was these two children, if she didn't have any worries, she would have gone to walk the world a long time ago.

"Xue'er, listen to Uncle Erzhu's words, there are some things that children don't understand, don't take it to heart, my mother still has to go to your grandfather Li's house every day, and she has to go to the town, there is not much time at home, if the bad guys come, you can only let Uncle Erzhu come forward."

Mei Xue knew the seriousness of the matter, she nodded and agreed with tears in her eyes.

"Mother, don't have an accident."

"Xue'er doesn't want anything to happen to her mother."

Mei Sanniang smiled: "How come? Mother won't have an accident. Shrewd. ”

"Xue'er, you go back to the house first, and I'll talk to your Uncle Erzhu."

Mei Xue obediently returned to the house after receiving the order.

Mei Sanniang looked at it, and then let Xu Erzhu come to the courtyard, she sighed heavily, and told Xu Erzhu: "This flu has killed a lot of people, and many people have started to think crookedly, Brother Erzhu, you are the only one to help me, your mother shouldn't say anything, right?" ”

Xu Erzhu let Mei Sanniang relax and said: "My mother hasn't been going out recently, and she just asks me about things." ”

"It's you, so dangerous, you don't know those people, if you hadn't screamed, I... It's thanks to my mother, I didn't hear it in the house, or my mother was yelling outside, saying that you were crazy again, so I hurried over. ”

"I didn't expect there to be so many people here."

Mei Sanniang smiled bitterly: "That's really thanks to your mother." ”

"My mother is like that, the meaning of her words is different from what she thinks in her heart."

"It's called disagreement." Mei Sanniang said.

"Yes, Sanniang, you can go to teach in this culture."

"Brother Erzhu, you can't make money from teaching, you quietly sell out of this medicine."

Xu Erzhu thinks that it doesn't matter how much money there is, the main thing is that people can live happily.

"Sanniang, you don't want to sell medicine, do you? Where do you get so many medicines in this house? ”

Mei Sanniang told Xu Erzhu: "These medicines were all left by Li Zhantang, and this man left something after he left." ”

Mei Sanniang knows very well that medicinal materials are limited, and there is no end to the places where medicine is used, she can't sell medicine alone, and learning medical skills is not mainly to save people, but when her family is in need, don't ask for medicine everywhere in a low voice.

"Brother Erzhu, Old Man Li's complexion has not been very good recently, I feel..."

Mei Sanniang wanted to speak and stopped, and tears couldn't help but bloom in her eyes.

"Yesterday I saw Old Man Li sitting at the entrance of the village, what's wrong?"

Mei Sanniang didn't want to say more, she could only silently pray to God not to take away such a good person.

"It's okay, God open his eyes, it's going to be fine."

As soon as Mei Sanniang said, Xu Erzhu understood a little, and also echoed: "It's okay, everything is fine." ”

"Sanniang, as long as you need me, I will be by your side at any time and never give up."

Mei Sanniang nodded with satisfaction, if it was placed in the past, everyone would want such a good man, but in Mei Sanniang's modern concept, it is to lick the dog properly, or lick it until there is nothing.

Now there is only guilt in Mei Sanniang's heart, because she has always regarded Xu Erzhu as her brother and does not dare to have other ideas.
