Chapter Ninety-Seven: Rice Rice
"Where's Ye Hu?" Du Ruo hurriedly asked Du Zhi.
Before the words fell, another big head appeared next to Du Zhi's little head, which was the Ye Hu she was looking for.
Seeing that the two of them were there, Du Ruo felt a little more at ease, hurriedly entered the inn, ran upstairs quickly, pushed open the door of the room and entered, and closed the door tightly behind him.
With this posture, even a half-grown child like Du Zhi could see that something was not quite right, not to mention the more perceptive Ye Hu.
"Dusima, is there something wrong with you? How is my grandfather? Is there any trouble? "Although Ye Hu is five big and three coarse, he also has a careful side, and when he saw that Du Ruo ran out in a panic, he knew that his master must be in trouble.
Otherwise, with Ye Yuanzhou's temperament, it would be impossible for him to stay where he was and let Du Ruo's family run around.
Du Ruo nodded: "It's a long story, so I'll make a long story short!" Ye Duwei was poisoned. ”
As soon as Ye Hu heard this, his face changed, and he was about to speak, but he was stopped by Du Ruoyi stretching out his hand.
"I don't have time to explain the whole thing to you in detail now, so don't ask yet!" She said to Ye Hu, "Your brother has not come back from being sent out by Ye Duwei on an errand, so I can only count on you in this matter."
Now you go out of the city as soon as possible, go up the mountain to catch snakes, the antidote recipe says that you need more than 20 snake bitter gall, but for the sake of safety, you try to be as fast as possible, the more the merrier!
We must fight quickly, we can't grind, and time is pressing! ”
After all, Ye Hu is the person next to Ye Yuanzhou, and the rules are still strict, plus he has been trained in the army with Ye Yuanzhou, so he does things simply.
After listening to Du Ruo's words, he didn't ask anything more, and nodded to her with a solemn expression: "Okay, don't worry, Du Sima, let's go and come back quickly!" ”
After that, he waved at Du Zhi on the side: "Boy, go!" Let's go! ”
Du Zhi hurriedly answered, and followed Ye Hu to leave the inn with a bump.
The snake's matter was finally arranged, knowing that Ye Hu was a safe person and Ye Yuanzhou's right-hand man, there would never be a little ambiguity when it came to helping Ye Yuanzhou detoxify, Du Ruo was a little more determined in his heart, and he was a little more down-to-earth than before.
After that, it's time to buy other things.
Some herbs and other items are still relatively easy to buy, Du Ruo bought those after a few trips, and finally there was one thing left to buy - rice rice.
There is nothing rare about the rice itself, you can buy it at any rice grain store, but this list is written on Zong Youlin "five buckets of rice rice".
Du Ruo looked at it carefully and made sure that he didn't misunderstand Zong Youlin's handwriting, he did let himself buy enough five buckets of rice to go back.
Five buckets of rice are loaded, it is estimated that they are almost half as tall as her, although Du Ruo said that he is not powerless, but it is true that there is more time to use his brain, less time to carry it on his own shoulder, and he has never carried such a heavy thing when he is so big.
On weekdays, these five buckets of rice would be a big deal to spend some money and find a few people to help carry them back, but now what she needs is to carry things to the Zong family's house, which is a well-known murderous house in Tonghe County.
Not to mention that others may be too frightened to take this job as soon as they hear that they are going to be sent to the Zong family's mansion, it is not good to just attract the attention of others.
Ye Yuanzhou is still suffering from the pain of poison, and in this case, it is best to have fewer forks as safe.
There's no way, if you can't do it at this time, you can only harden yourself.
Du Ruo found three rice grain stores to finally get five buckets of rice, the shopkeeper was very surprised why someone would buy so much rice back at once at this time, this thing is not easy to restrain and ordinary people even if they buy it back to make snacks and eat, they can't use so much.
What surprised the shopkeeper even more was that the white-faced scholar in front of him, who looked thin, actually said that he wanted to carry the five buckets of rice back by himself!
"You are a scholar, you look at it carefully, can you carry it?" He asked Du Ruo uneasily.
Du Ruo smiled bitterly, gritted his back molars, and nodded: "It can be done!" The shopkeeper helped me put that bag on my back! ”
The shopkeeper naturally wouldn't fight with her, anyway, she said yes, so let's take it.
So he and the young man worked together to lift the big bag full of rice, raised it with a rivet, and put it on Du Ruo's back.
Du Ruo felt that it seemed to be Wang Wu and Taihang who fell on her back at that moment, and she almost fell to her knees as soon as her knees became weak, but fortunately she held it at the critical moment.
"Are you sure you can carry it?" The young man looked at her face and felt that this matter was a little hanging.
Du Ruo gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay!" ”
As she spoke, she exerted all her strength, gently swept the bag on her back, adjusted a more bearable posture, thanked the shopkeeper and the young man, and took a step to leave the rice grain store.
Du Ruo carried the five buckets of rice on her back and moved with difficulty step by step, probably because she looked relatively thin, and she looked like a scholar, and she walked on the street with such a huge bag of rice grains, which was inevitably a little noticeable.
Helplessly, when her physical strength was not sufficient, she had to go around to the streets and alleys where there were fewer people, and it took a short circle to finally go around to the back door of the Zong family's mansion.
When he walked to the door, Du Ruo felt that half of his life was about to be exhausted, and he couldn't even raise his hand to knock on the door, so he could only lean sideways, hit the door panel with his shoulder, and make a sound, so that Zong Youlin inside could notice.
Fortunately, Zong Youlin's reaction was quite fast, and it didn't take long for him to run over and open the door and let her in.
Du Ruo almost exhausted all the strength of his body at this moment, and he couldn't even remove the rice on his back, but Zong Youlin was so skinny that he didn't have much strength, and it took a lot of effort for the two of them to unload the big bag of rice from Du Ruo's back.
The burden was unloaded from his back, Du Ruo's legs suddenly weakened, and he didn't have time to react at all, so he knelt on the ground with a thud, and his knees hit the hard stone slab, not to mention how much it hurt.
But at this time, she didn't have the heart to think about this, so she hurriedly got up on the ground, and went over to check Ye Yuanzhou's situation with trembling legs, and then was surprised to find that Ye Yuanzhou was no longer in the side courtyard where she originally lived, but was taken to the backyard.
Zong Youlin built a bed-like thing in the courtyard with bricks, stone slabs, and other things, and Ye Yuanzhou was settled on it and lay down, still wrapped in a quilt, his face was pale, and his face was covered with cold sweat.
His eyes were closed, his teeth were clenched, and he looked unconscious.
