Chapter 11 Leaves and Wild Herbs
When Lang Zhong saw this situation, the corners of his eyes drooped on the spot.
It's still a bit aggrieved.
Is it easy to be a doctor these days?
Tired and tired running around, I finally ran into a big eater, but the big one fell again.
Why is it so unlucky!
Tang Su was also a little embarrassed, so he pulled off a thin silver hairpin on his head. This is the last headdress on her head, and if she pulls it out, she can only tie a green silk with a rope.
Lang Zhong's eyes lit up.
Shi Ma took it first and said, "This hairpin is more than 20 yuan, miss, we have to grab medicine for my aunt, this hairpin can't be given to him." ”
Tang Su: "Then, fold it into two sections?" ”
Shi Ma: "...... Miss, you can take it to the pawnshop and exchange it for broken silver. ”
"Where's the pawnshop?"
"Miss, can you go, let Zhang San and Li Si go." Shi Ma is talking about two long-term workers.
Among them, Zhang San was the one who knocked Tang Su unconscious with a hoe before, and the two of them have been nesting under the wall for the past three days, and they usually don't dare to go to Tang Su.
Tang Su asked Shi Ma to call the two of them over.
Zhang San and Li Si stood at the bottom of the steps with their heads down, and Zhang San was still wrapped in strips of cloth on his head. Both of them were sturdy young men in their twenties, but they looked a little sluggish and hadn't eaten enough for several days.
Tang Su glanced at the empty courtyard, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Since the old man died, everyone else has left, why are you two still here?" I don't have any land left for you to plant. ”
Zhang San whispered: "The lives of both of us were saved by Miss, others can leave, and we won't leave even if we starve to death." We have to follow Miss all the time and protect Miss. ”
"Yes, I, I'm not leaving." Li Si stammered a little when he spoke, and he had always been relatively silent, only succinctly agreeing.
Tang Su was stunned.
Tang Lan whispered, "Sister doesn't remember?" When you were eight years old, you picked them up when they were dying of starvation, and since then they have been working long hours in our house. ”
Shi's mother wiped her tears: "Madame will be gone after giving birth to the second lady, I raised you since childhood, and I will not leave." ”
In the huge family, there were only these three loyal people left, Tang Su's heart was a little shaken, and he couldn't say anything to let them leave.
Even now it's hard for her to even support herself.
"Shi Ma, is there anything else to eat?" Tang Su asked.
Shi Ma said: "There are still a few nests, two cabbages, and nothing else to eat." ”
"Take the nest head to the two of them to eat, let them go out to run errands, and they can't go on an empty stomach." Tang Su commanded.
"No, no, no, I'm not hungry, I've already eaten!" Zhang San hurriedly shook his head, took the hairpin from Shi Ma's hand, and said, "I'll go find a pawnshop." ”
Tang Lan gave Li Si the prescription prescribed by the doctor: "Fourth Brother Li, you know a few words, you take this prescription, and you have to grab medicine for your aunt in exchange for money." ”
Li Si folded the paper and put it in his pocket: "I remembered, wrote it down." Miss put, don't worry. ”
Tang Su said, "What can you eat?" Go get a nest head to eat......"
"Miss, we're really, really not hungry!"
Li Si pulled Zhang San to turn around and leave, and ran out of the yard in three or two clicks.
Tang Su was a little puzzled: "I haven't seen them eat together in the past few days, and as soon as I say let them eat something, I say that they have already eaten." What did they eat? ”
"I don't know." Tang Lan shook his head, "I have nothing to do these days, the two of them are staying in their own long workshops." ”
"Look at it."
Tang Su let Tang Lan lead the way and went to the workers' house, which was a little far away from the main house, and the original long row of houses was empty at the moment.
Zhang San and Li Si shared a room, and there was no bed in it, only two piles of hay, covered with old clothes, a little messy, and it looked like a place to sleep.
On the floor next to the "bed" were two large porcelain bowls, and there were small half bowls of black and green things inside.
"What is this?" Tang Su squatted down, picked up the bowl and smelled it, the smell was very unpleasant.
Tang Lan twisted a little with his fingertips and put it in his mouth, was silent for a while, and said softly: "This is a mixture of leaves and wild vegetables and boiled." I've gotten this when I've been naughty before. ”
