Chapter 59: Afraid to see people cry
Chapter 59 Afraid of seeing people cry
About a quarter of an hour later, the village head of Xiaofengzhuang took several farmers and personally welcomed Ye Anlan and others into their village.
Their village was built next to Xiaofeng Village, and the name followed the name of Zhuangzi, so it was called Xiaofeng Village.
In Xiaofeng Village, less than half of the villagers have the surname Feng. Of course, they are not relatives of the Feng family, but servants of the Feng family. These people were not selected to work in the Feng family's shop or mansion, so they worked together with the tenant farmers in Xiaofeng Village to cultivate for the master family.
The head of the village took several old people who could speak in the village, and personally sent Ye Anlan and the others to the two side-by-side simple farm yards that Father Yang rented with ten taels of silver.
"Our place has just been looted by the rebels, and we have nothing to offer to entertain you." Perhaps because he felt that he was a little unscrupulous in accepting Ye Anlan's borrowing fee of ten taels of silver, the frowning Zhuangtou said dryly to Ye Anlan: "If you Don't dislike it, you can live here as long as you want, but you have to find a way to solve the food yourself."
The master's family left them and took refuge with the whole family. Before leaving, they took away all the food stored in the village. These slaves and tenants who had been living in a difficult life, after being looted by the rebels, their life became even more difficult. Live today without tomorrow.
"I see, thank you for letting me know, old man." Ye Anlan was not surprised by this, she looked at Father Yang, "Uncle Yang, did Lao Jiang buy it?"
Papa Yang nodded, "I exchanged ten catties of miscellaneous grain noodles with the villagers, and I have already given them to Xiaotao's mother to make **** soup."
No way, the other party does not want money, but food.
Ye Anlan was a little relieved, "That's how it is, I'll figure out what to eat."
The corners of Zhuangtou's lips twitched slightly when he heard the words, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Ye Anlan and Zhuangtou exchanged a few pleasantries, and then asked Old Man Yang to send them away politely.
As for her, after Zhuangtou and the others left, she immediately ran to get the pulse of Zheng Fengshou and the woman who jumped into the river.
Zheng Fengshou has a strong body, although he has caught the cold, but his only symptoms are occasional sneezing and a slight stuffy nose.
This kind of minor illness is easy to treat, but the middle-aged woman who was rescued by him is not only in poor health, but also has a troublesome disease of stagnation of liver qi.
Benefits are not good, Ye Anlan can at most help her recuperate, but this liver qi stagnation, this is not a disease within Ye Anlan's ability.
She sighed inwardly, but her subordinates wrote out a flamboyant prescription with charcoal.
Grasp the medicine according to the prescription, Ye Anlan handed Ye Wei the clay pot for boiling the medicine, "Third sister, go and boil the medicine, and then let our mother cook a small stove for this aunt."
Ye Wei let out a "hey" and went to work, but Ye Anlan was worried about the food problem of her team.
As for the woman who was still in a coma, Ye Anlan said that this kind of woman who has a lot of stories at first sight, she can still not touch her hands.
Unraveling others or something, this is really not something she is good at.
At this time, Ye Anlan didn't know, and soon, she could only bite the bullet and do things she was not good at.
The woman woke up leisurely when Mrs. Li greeted everyone for dinner. Yang Xiaomei, who had been guarding her all the time, saw the woman open her eyes, and immediately called Ye Anlan over.
Ye Anlan took her pulse, and asked Ye Wei to bring in the porridge and soup.
The woman's eyes were confused at first, then painful, and finally all returned to calm, leaving only numbness.
She forced herself to sit up, "You guys saved me?"
Ye Anlan nodded, "It's good that my aunt wakes up. Let's eat first. If you have anything to say, we'll talk slowly after you eat."
The woman smiled bitterly, "Why should a dying person waste food?"
Ye Anlan:
The woman gasped for breath twice, "Thank you very much for saving me. It's just that I've made up my mind to die, so I won't."
In the middle of speaking, the woman's eyes that were originally covering Ye Anlan suddenly turned out of the window uncontrollably.
The two farm yards that Ye Anlan and the others lived in were all empty houses in Xiaofeng Village that were uninhabited all the year round. Except for a few dilapidated houses that were barely habitable, the place was really bare everywhere.
Not to mention the furniture, Ye Anlan and the others couldn't even find a single straw curtain that was supposed to be hung on the doors and windows to keep out the wind and rain.
In the few rooms they have cleaned up now, the windows are all square wooden window frames.
Such a house is certainly not very comfortable to live in, but it is very convenient for the people in the house to observe the movement outside the house.
The woman suddenly lost her voice because she suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhou Mingzhe and his party from the empty window who were pushing the door and entering.
Tears welled up in her eyes without warning, and her thin body suddenly trembled violently.
"Zhe'er, it's Zhe'er." The woman stared at Zhou Mingzhe's indistinguishable and beautiful face for a moment, she shed tears unconsciously at first, and covered her mouth after a while, howling softly but fiercely cry.
Ye Anlan, Yang Xiaomei, and Ye Wei looked dumbfounded—what's going on? Is this woman an acquaintance with Zhou Mingzhe?
Uh, Ye Anlan felt that the word "acquaintance" might not be very accurate. To make a death-seeking person cry like this, Zhou Mingzhe should be someone very close to her no matter what.
She rubbed the center of her eyebrows, "Third sister, go ask Mingzhe to come in."
"No! Don't tell him to come in!" Before Ye Wei could respond, the woman shook her head vigorously in panic, "I, I have no face to see him, I"
Halfway through speaking, she burst into tears again, covered her mouth and howled softly.
The veins on Ye Anlan's forehead twitched. To be honest, she had reached the limit of her patience.
She looked at Yang Xiaomei, "I'll leave it to you."
Yang Xiaomei:? ? ?
Yang Xiaomei:! !
She wanted to say "Don't, I've never seen such a scene before", but before she opened her mouth, Ye Anlan had already fled out of the room.
Fortunately, Ye Anlan, who still had a good conscience, didn't completely become a shopkeeper. She invited Mrs. Li and Aunt Su to Yang Xiaomei's side.
"Girl?" Seeing Ye Anlan slumped on the chair, as if she had turned into a loveless fish, Yang Xiaotao walked over lightly.
Ye Anlan let out a long breath, "It's okay, I'm just a little afraid of seeing people cry."
Especially the kind of crying that obviously wanted to wail loudly, but suppressed his emotions for some reason, Ye Anlan's mood would become heavy just by looking at it.
Miserable, really miserable, so miserable that she couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
Sighing and shaking her head, Ye Anlan took a deep breath, "I won't be able to eat dinner for a while, so go and help Xiaohe warm the food in the pot first."
Yang Xiaotao answered "Yes" and went to work in the kitchen. Li Jing, who had been observing Ye Anlan for a while, got up and walked over slowly. He asked Ye Anlan, "Is something wrong? What can I do?" Where can I help?"
