A simple thatched house, surrounded by fences, planted with crops, in the thatched house Zhang Xiang, Liu Yiyan two sitting at a table, opposite them, there is an old lady, looking at them kindly, pointing to the food on the table, and said with a kind smile: "Hehehe, the family is relatively simple, our family lives on farming, and there is no big wine and meat to serve, you don't have to dislike it!"

"Of course not, grandma, we are already grateful that you can take us in for one night!"

Liu Yiyan replied obediently, and Zhang Xiang also thanked with a smile. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The old man's eyes are a little difficult to use, and because of his age, he has some difficulty speaking, but he is very kind and makes people feel close.

She is Li Cuihua's grandmother, Li Cuihua's father, and the two elder brothers were arrested to fill the army, and it has been eight years since then, and bad news came after eight years.

Now there is only one old man left in the family, and the two depend on each other for their lives, usually relying on farming, picking herbs and selling them for money to make a living.

Zhang Jiuding sat outside the door, crossed Erlang's legs to look at Li Cuihua who was squatting on the ground and sorting out the painkiller grass, Li Cuihua was still a little afraid of him, and deliberately turned sideways and did not face Zhang Jiuding.

Zhang Jiuding felt interesting, and said lightly: "Little lady, what are you doing with these herbs?"

Li Cuihua's body stiffened when she heard this, so she had to whisper back: "Take it to the market and sell it for a price!"

"What's the use of this, how much money does this herb mean?"

"Not only this herb, but also others, this is the recipe, there is a small town ahead, no one in the town knows how to heal, there is only one shop that sells medicine, Changchang because there is not enough hot hands, so there is a shortage of herbs, so I act as a buddy in that shop, collect herbs every day and send them to him, and make a little money.

Zhang Jiuding nodded thoughtfully, then jumped in front of Li Cuihua, and said with a big grin: "This can earn a few silver taels, why don't you follow me, the master will hold you to eat and drink spicy, and you will have no worries about food and clothing." ”

Li Cuihua sneered, and suddenly felt that the man in front of her was not so fierce, so she chuckled: "I know everything, you are a poor boy, and you have no worries about food and clothing, bragging!"

Zhang Jiuding was speechless for a while, I don't know where Li Cuihua knew about it, seeing him like this, Li Cuihua smiled even more happily.

Zhang Jiuding rolled his eyes, returned to the chair, sat on it and looked up at the sky, thinking about resting for one night and leaving tomorrow.

That night, Li Cuihua, who was sleeping next to her grandmother, felt that her grandmother's body was extremely hot, so she exclaimed, alarming everyone, Zhang Jiuding and the three of them quickly got up, and after checking it, they found that it was the grandmother who was hit by the cold, and in the autumn and winter, the old man's body was not good.

Knowing that the three of them were going to live here tonight, he gave them a quilt and gave them a quilt, it stands to reason that the two of them sleep, it is warmer, but most of them were covered by Li Cuihua by her grandmother, causing her body to be partially exposed, which is why she was caught in the cold.

There are not too many herbs at home, so I have to boil some ginger soup first, but the old man's body is too weak, and he must take medicine, and his grandmother needs Liu Yiyan to take care of him, and Li Cuihua has been in the medicine hall for a long time, what does the herbal medicine of a natural person look like, but it is not safe for her to go up the mountain alone, and it is not safe to go to the town to sell medicine.

Zhang Xiang proposed to go into the town to buy medicine, but the family did not have extra money, so Li Cuihua insisted on going up the mountain to collect medicine.

"Is the town far from here?"

Zhang Jiuding touched his forehead and asked.

"It's not far, it's only half an hour back and forth!"

"Okay, let's go, wait for us to come back!"

Zhang Jiuding pulled Li Cuihua out of the door, as soon as the door opened, the cold wind was biting, this was winter, and the weather was getting colder and colder.

Zhang Jiuding tightened his clothes, and Liu Yiyan's voice came from the room, as well as two cotton cloaks: "Be careful on the road!"

Zhang Jiuding nodded, put a cloak on Li Cuihua, and the two walked on the road.

"We ...... We ......"

"Rest assured, I won't sell you. ”

Zhang Jiuding rubbed his hands and covered his face, the wind blew his face painfully, and he didn't forget to make fun of Li Cuihua.

"I didn't mean that, I meant it...... Broke the bank!"

Li Cuihua waved her hand, a little embarrassed to say.

"Grandma is a good person, she was afraid that we would catch a cold, so she gave us her quilt, and then she was caught in the cold, and you didn't blame us for it. ”

Zhang Jiuding smiled slightly, it turned out that Li Cuihua meant this, and helped her cover the cloak on her shoulders, and the two talked and laughed and thought about walking to the town.

"Doctor, open the door. ”

Because they were in a hurry, the two of them walked quickly, and now they gently patted the wooden door of the medicine hall.

The two waited for a long time, but there was no movement inside, and Zhang Jiuding increased his strength slightly: "Is there anyone?

"It's coming, it's coming!"

This time there was finally a sound, and after a while, an old man opened the door, and he did not see Li Cuihua hiding behind Zhang Jiuding to avoid the wind, but looked at Zhang Jiuding.

"Sir, I'm sorry for the interruption, the elders in the family have a cold and a high fever, so they came to buy medicine, and I hope Mr. understands!"

Zhang Jiuding saw that the person who came was an old man, so he hugged his fists and saluted.

The old man returned the salute, turned sideways, and said, "It's windy outside, come in and talk!"

Zhang Jiuding clenched his fists and smiled: "Thank you, sir!"

The medicine hall is not large, and it is unobstructed, but it has everything.

After entering the house, the old man found Li Cuihua, and smiled bitterly: "Xiaocui, it's so late, why are you here?"

Li Cuihua laughed and said, "It's my grandma who is sick, so she came to buy medicine!"

"It's very cold this winter, so the old man should pay attention to his body, Xiaocui! ”

The old man walked into the pharmacy, skillfully grabbed a few herbs, and explained: "You have to take care of your grandmother, your grandmother's body and bones can't stand the toss." ”

"Sir blames her, grandma is cold, she gave the quilt to me, so she got sick!"

Zhang Jiuding was embarrassed to spare his head, and then learned from Li Cuihua's mouth that he needed three pennies, but when he paid, the old man refused with a smile.

"No money, Xiaocui has been working here for more than a year, usually this child is diligent and simple, this medicine is sent to you." ”

Looking at the old man's kind face, Zhang Jiuding felt very moved, everyone here is so enthusiastic, Grandma Li Cuihua is like this, and so is the owner of this pharmacy.

Zhang Jiuding clasped his fists and saluted slightly, and said, "Thank you Mr. for your kindness, but I hope that Mr. will not shirk this money!"

The old man couldn't grind Zhang Jiuding, so he accepted it with a smile, called them when Zhang Jiuding and the others left, and put a bag of medicinal herbs in Li Cuihua's hand, saying that this was used to regulate the body, and it was not bad for the old man to move the blood.

Zhang Jiuding and the others hurriedly thanked them, and the old man handed them a lantern again.

"It's windy and dark on the road, so bring a lantern!"

Zhang Jiuding took the lantern and solemnly saluted: "Thank you, sir!"
