Chapter Twenty-Eight: Good People Have Good Rewards
As soon as Li Shi thought like this, he saw the child fall down, and the old man was in a hurry, holding the child and shouting: "Brother Yin, Brother Yin!" Wake up, if we insist on it, there will be water soon......" The old man shouted and grabbed the woman passing by, "Little sister-in-law, please give some water and let the child drink!" The child is dying. ”
The little woman that the old man was holding was very unfortunate, it was the woman of the Wang family who pushed the Li family to borrow grain from the Sun brothers before.
"Go, go, go! If your child wants to die, we don't want our own life? ”
"You old and young, even if I give you a sip of water now, you live today, what about tomorrow?"
"You have no labor, and you have no food, you are all dead on this escape from the famine, don't waste my water."
The little woman of the Wang family kicked the old man away with a kick, and then beckoned the family to hurry up.
With this scene of the Wang family's wife, everyone involuntarily bypassed the old and the young.
The old man looked up to the sky in despair and shouted, "Oh my God! Why don't you open your eyes!! ”
Li felt uncomfortable, she held the water bladder tightly and looked at the children she was carrying, hesitating in her heart, after all, they only had a small half bag of water.
At this time, although they saw the mountain, they might not be able to reach it when it was dark.
"Godmother! I'm not thirsty! An An looked at Li with hopeful eyes.
Shen Tan licked his interfering lips: "I can hold on until the evening." ”
At night, they should be able to enter the mountains, their eyes can see at night, and they should be able to find water.
Shen Yi said: "Mother! We can't die without help! ”
Li sighed, nodded vigorously, turned around and walked in front of the old man, "This is the only water we have, give the child a sip!" ”
The old man was overjoyed when he heard this, and took the water bladder in Li's hand regardless of it, and shouted "Brother Yin" tremblingly.
chattered that "finally a well-wisher gave saliva" Yunyun, and even said "the great kindness of the benefactor will be repaid when they arrive in the capital" and so on.
Li saw that he was so excited that he was incoherent, and waited with the children for a long time, and finally saw the child wake up.
"Grandpa!" The child's voice was very weak.
"Brother Yin, thank your benefactor! It was the water given by this kind aunt who saved you, and you must remember to repay the favor when you grow up! You know? ”
When Brother Yin heard this, he stood up and bowed respectfully to the Li family.
"The benefactor's life-saving grace, in the future, my brother Xu Yin will definitely tie the grass ring and repay it twice!"
Li Shi was very relieved, and said with a smile: "Grace does not ask for retribution, just a sip of water, let's go, while we still have strength, we will be fine when we go to the mountain." ”
Lee stood up and continued walking.
The old man hurriedly stopped her.
"Little sister-in-law, dare to ask your honorable name, what is your husband's surname?"
"My brother Yin's father is working in Beijing, our ancestors and grandchildren have survived this difficulty, and when they arrive in the capital, they will definitely want to repay the kind people who have helped us along the way!"
When Li heard this, he smiled and said: "When we meet in Pingshui, we won't know my name, uncle, let's go!" There is a mountain ahead, so if you walk quickly, you may be able to get there before dark, and you can find food and water! ”
The old man didn't follow, so he had to ask for a name.
An An knew that his godmother was really thinking of giving favor and not asking for retribution, so he said to the old man: "If you really want to repay the favor, you might as well say your name, what did Brother Yin's father do in Beijing?" In the future, if my godmother can ask for something to go over, it is not too late for you to talk about repaying her kindness! ”
As soon as An An said this, the old man said: "Little brother, this is good, my eldest man's name is Xu Dingwen, he is a doctor, I really don't know where he is doing things in Beijing, I only heard that he works as a doctor in a big man's house!" ”
An An: "......" at the end of last year, Xu Dingwen, the first Jiaxu in the selection of the Tai Hospital, did not expect that he is now a five-grade Tai Doctor, and his father and son have been reduced to this.
"I know, if my godmother has something to do at that time, I will definitely go to you!" After finishing speaking, he asked again: "You don't know where your eldest man is doing things in Beijing, where should you go to find it when you get to Beijing?" ”
The old man was in trouble for a while: "My eldest man left home three years ago, and he only received news at the beginning of spring this year that he had made some famous names in Beijing, but he didn't say where he was, and this little old man was also worried!" ”
An An thought for a while and said, "In that case, don't go to the capital, come with us!" We are going to Qingzhou Mansion, you are penniless, have no rice and no food, and you will not be able to go to the capital! ”
"We also thought about going to Qingzhou Mansion, there was news before that there was no rice and grain in Yangzhou Mansion, and there were mountain bandits among the victims, we couldn't go, there was a strong man who was very capable of beating the mountain bandits away, saying that he was going to Qingzhou, but he was defected, and he could leave his household registration when he went, and we went to be homeless!"
"Don't worry, I don't worry, you won't become a homeless person if you go, everyone here won't become a homeless person if you go, and the imperial court will definitely order the state capitals to accept the victims and raise food for disaster relief."
"Really...... It's true? The old man was incredulous, and his face was full of excitement.
"Really, now that His Majesty is fighting abroad, these things must be decided by His Royal Highness the Prince, the Prince is virtuous and loves the people like a son, he can't watch everyone starve to death and be homeless, I have received reliable information, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will do this."
The old man was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded again and again, "Alas...... Ok, good, good! Then I'll follow you to Cheongju Mansion! ”
After the old man finished speaking, he couldn't help sighing, "This world! There are still a lot of good people, good people! The Bodhisattva will bless you, little brother, have you heard? Early this morning, news spread that toads can be eaten, and those who can't find food can catch them at night to satisfy their hunger, and with this method, everyone can go to Cheongju Mansion. ”
An An nodded, the news was spread by him, but he didn't say that they ate it first, and they were sure that it was non-toxic.
"The original Bodhisattva blesses those who spread the news to live a long life, live a long life, live a long and healthy life, good people must have good rewards, how many lives of the victims of the disaster! He saved them, supreme merit, and I hope he can live a healthy life. ”
An An grinned: "Borrow your auspicious words, it will be." ”
Shen Tan squinted at him.
He was very embarrassed to get up, and ran to Shen Tan's side in a few steps and whispered: "These merits are all yours, you will definitely be able to live a long life, live a long and healthy life, and be rewarded with good people in the future!" ”
Shen Tan felt very funny, "Do you believe these nonsense?" Little fool! ”
Shen Tan finished laughing at An An, quickly caught up with the Li family, and kept urging Shen Yi and An An: "Go quickly, we must go into the mountains and forests to find a water source before we die of thirst, otherwise even if we catch the field chicken, there will be no water treatment, and we can only eat unclean field chickens at that time." ”
When Li and the others heard Shen Tan's words, they couldn't help but speed up their pace.
The old man dragged his grandson and trotted to follow, praying as he ran: I hope that the virtuous prince can really let the state capitals accept them as the little brother said.
In fact, the crown prince in Beijing didn't have an idea at this time.
Early this morning, it was the day he had planned to go to Yongning Temple to pick up the queen back to the palace.
Because the emperor is fighting all the year round, the queen eats fasting and recites the Buddha all the year round, praying for the Buddha to bless the emperor with a safe and triumphant victory.
However, before he arrived at Yongning Temple, the frame was stopped halfway, and the guards around him were shocked, shouting "Assassin, escort" and so on!!
