Chapter 58: To save or not to save (1)

Xiao Xiao was a little impatient, a little sweat broke out on his forehead, and his knuckles holding the window lattice were slightly white. She saw Mo Daxi staring blankly at Xiao Sheng for a while, and then she didn't know what Mo Daxi said. In short, Mo Daxi, who originally planned to have lunch at her house, turned around and left in a hurry.

Xiao Sheng looked at the back of Mo Dai's departure, his eyes were dim and infatuated, until Xiao Xiao's regretful voice came from behind him—

"Xiao Sheng, you are too impatient, you scared Daxi!"

"Sister, you actually peeked!" Xiao Sheng glared at Xiao Xiao with some embarrassment, and at the same time blushed suddenly at the thought of his bold action just now.

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows, and jokingly said: "Xiao Sheng, isn't it too late for you to be shy now? Besides, I'm not peeping, I'm clearly looking at it openly. I really didn't expect your sister, you It turned out to be so bold, still standing at the door, that's all!"

After Xiao Xiao said this, Xiao Sheng became more and more embarrassing, and then he heard Xiao Xiao said: "It's so good! Daxi is the kind of person who will reward you very much if you treat her well. You must catch her. what!"

Xiao Xiao's rare serious tone made Xiao Sheng look up at her in surprise, but at this moment he saw her looking at him with a narrow smile.

Xiao Sheng quickly turned his eyes away and fled to the west ear room, then carefully opened the small wooden box that Mo Dai gave him, but saw a wooden headband and a wooden hairpin lying inside, and the hairband and the hairpin were on top of each other. All are carved with exquisite and detailed patterns of auspicious birds.

Xiao Sheng looked at the headband and hairpin, remembering what Mo Dai said to him before leaving, the corners of his lips curled up, and a dimple appeared on his left cheek.

She said: "Wait for me to marry you!"

Mo Dai returned home in a daze, but her heart couldn't calm down until she saw two little guys, Mo Xiaoyu and Mo Xiaoyi running towards her, her heart was at ease. Picking them up one by one with each hand, and feeling that their weight has increased a bit, I feel more at ease in my heart.

Today's lunch, Mo Dai personally cooked a good meal for the whole family. During the meal, Mo Dai stopped looking at Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng, and let them eat the food peacefully. Infected by Mo Dai's mood, the atmosphere of the meal was very good, and the whole family also enjoyed the meal. Eating is very pleasant and comfortable.

After eating, Mo Dai went to Mo Wuqing's room to look at Xiao Man again. Mo Wuqing just wanted to stab her a few words habitually, but saw her looking at Xiao Man with gentle and peaceful eyes, which had been revealed a few days ago. The panic and impetuosity disappeared, and Mo Wuqing resentfully turned his eyes away and stopped talking.

Although he is fierce to Mo Daxi every day, it's not that he can't feel her kindness to him. It's rare for a man in another family to eat and drink as much as he does, and it's rare for a boy in another family to have a mother who is always in his arms. He was coaxing in pain. He could tell that Mo Daxi really liked and loved Xiao Man, he would often sneak kisses on Xiao Man's face, and hum strange tunes to Xiao Man that he had never heard before.

He had never believed that Mo Daxi's changes would last long, but since he gave birth to Xiaoman that day, he has believed a little bit. It turns out that a person can really change so completely, except for his appearance and voice, everything else has changed. , Sometimes it seems like a stranger.

"Mo Daxi!" Mo Wuqing suddenly called out.

Mo Dai, who was playing with Xiao Man, subconsciously looked up at Mo Wuqing.

"Are you sure you want to marry that Xiao Sheng?" Mo Wu was depressed for two days, and finally asked today.

Modai nodded without any further hesitation: "Yes."

Mo Wuqing asked again: "When will you marry him?"

"I want to marry him when I am free after the busy farming season."

"Oh, if you don't marry him at this time, are you afraid that he will be tired from doing farm work when he gets married? It seems that he is very important in your heart!"

"You are equally important in my heart!"

"..."

Mo Wuqing was suddenly speechless, and it took him a long time to say awkwardly: "Go out, I'm going to feed Xiaoman!"

Mo Dai twitched the corners of her mouth, and handed Xiaoman to Mo Wuqing. She actually wanted to hold Xiaoman and tease him for a while longer, but as the saying goes, a father is a father who has milk, and her father has spoken. She has no milk My mother can only obediently hand over Xiaoman.

When he walked to the door, he suddenly heard Mo Wuqing's awkward voice: "I heard from my elder brother that it was you that day, and you saved me with your own blood, and the enmity between us will be wiped out." I won't hate you anymore... That's it, you go out quickly, close the door, don't peek, pervert!"

Modai was a little moved in the first half, but was speechless in the second half. When did she peek at him? Pervert? Forgive her, she doesn't have such a high rank.

In response to Fang Ling's idea of ​​using lottery to make money, Mo Dai wrote the rules of lottery and various matters that need attention the next day. Three days later, Fumantang launched a "lucky touch" prize-winning activity. Every one tael of silver spent in Fumantang can be used to get a lucky touch for free. If you want to touch without spending, you will have to pay another ten cents.

"Lucky Touch" has set up six prizes in total. The first prize is a piece of high-quality silk and satin worth a hundred taels, the second prize is ten taels of silver, the third prize is one tael of silver, and the fourth prize is silver coins. One hundred coins, the fifth prize is fifteen silver coins, the sixth prize is a touch again, and the others are thank you for your patronage.

Fang Ling’s wager this time is not bad, and the prizes for the first, second and third prizes are not very attractive to rich local rich people, but this activity sounds very interesting, especially if you can try your luck, The price of touching it once is not much, so it should be a joy. As for ordinary small households, the prizes are quite rich. If you can win the first, second and third prizes for ten coins, it can be regarded as a small fortune.

Because of the need to make money, the difficulty of winning the lottery will naturally increase. Mode has prepared six earthen jars, each of which contains a hundred small notes, fifty of which are written with numbers. A number between zero and nine is written on each note, and another fifty is written thank you for your patronage.

The lottery drawer needs to draw a piece of paper from each of the six earthen pots. Only when the numbers on the six pieces of paper are all the same is the first prize, and when there are five numbers the same is the second prize. The same number is the third prize, the same three numbers is the fourth prize, and the same two numbers is the fifth prize. When you touch three or more pieces of paper that all say thank you for your patronage, you can touch it again.

Of course, the small slips after touching the prizes must be recycled, otherwise it would be a big project to prepare these slips again.

Modai also doesn't know if the rules he hastily wrote down will be exploited by others. Fortunately, people who come to Fumantang to spend money regard this as an interesting game, and most of them are not short of money. See you soon When I went to a special counter in the lobby and wrote the words "lucky touch", everyone came to touch it happily.

So besides the applause of listening to the book, Fumantang has heard other voices from time to time, such as——

"Tsk, thank you again for your patronage, Mo Daxi, you are lying, there is no number written on the inside of the earthen jar!"

"Ah, I won, two numbers, the fifth prize, fifteen coins, no need to give me money, I will add another five coins, and touch it twice!"

"Oh, I've touched it ten times, and I didn't even win the fifth prize. I'm out of luck today, come back tomorrow!"

"Father, touch it again, and my sister won't believe in evil!"

"Hahaha, I won the third prize!"

"Wow, Boss Hu is so lucky, please treat me!"

"I won the lottery today, I am very happy in my heart, my wife treats me!"

As a result, the one tael of the boss Hu's money was quickly spent in Fumantang again, and the money spent was several times more than the winning amount. Fang Ling was very satisfied with this.

At the end of the day, Mo Dai handed over ten liang of silver from the lottery to Fang Ling, and Fang Ling weighed the silver in his hand and said: "Businessmen should never let go of a chance to make money like this in order to collect money. A lot of wealth, do you understand, Mo Daxi?"

"Understood, the shopkeeper is wise!" Mo Dai replied politely.

"Now that you understand, then what I mentioned earlier about letting you and Xiao Xiao open a pastry shop..."

"Let me think about it again."

"Hmph!" Fang Ling gave Mo Dai another contemptuous glance, and threw a couple of pieces of silver at her, "You should think it over quickly, don't think that you are the one in charge of my mother's pastry shop!"

"Thank you shopkeeper for your understanding!" Mo Dai cupped her fists and bowed. It's not that she doesn't want to open a pastry shop, but she wants to open it herself, or let Xiao Sheng and Xiao Xiao open a pastry shop that is completely their own, not affiliated to Fumantang.

Mo Dai's "Journey to the West" storybook is coming to an end, she asked Fang Ling's opinion, it is more enjoyable to write about fighting and killing instead of romance, so Mo Dai is going to re-adapt "Water Margin" into A book for the next story.

It's already mid-May, the weather is getting warmer, and the busy farming season is here.

On this day, Mo Dai came to Fumantang at Maoshi, wrote a book for two hours, and planned to leave at Sishi, but at this moment, the young mistress Wu Lian came to inform her shopkeeper to let her go to the account room in the backyard.

After arriving at the accounting room, Fang Ling handed Mo Dai another package, which contained 10% profit and two hundred taels from the storyteller last month.

Fang Ling said: "Mo Daxi, if you tell me, your final reward will definitely be doubled!"

Mode smiled and said nothing.

Fang Ling really hates Mo Dai's calm and reticent appearance: "Leave the lottery to Wu Lian to watch, and the sales of the Lucky Star Rabbit have stabilized, so let Xiao Xiao have full power, and you should concentrate on writing about you in the future." The book, of course, the money you deserve, you won’t miss a penny!”

"Thank you, shopkeeper!" Mo Dai sincerely thanked, because Fang Ling did not default on the money owed to her, and Fang Ling would not blackmail the rewards every time a customer named her for a reward.

"Let's talk about Lan'er again. I heard from Mrs. Shi that Lan'er's condition is very bad. She doesn't want to take medicine and has a bad temper. Every day she repeats your name, but the stubborn But she didn't let Mrs. Shi send someone to inform you, insisting that you take the initiative to see her when you sensed that she was dying, but her health has been getting worse in the past two days, and she can't even drink porridge, Shi Madame is also in a hurry, so I asked you, when will you go to see her? Is it possible today?"

Speaking of Shi Lan, Mo Dai frowned slightly. Shi Lan was able to persevere, but no one had been sent to look for her in the past month or so. But right now the family is busy with farming, and she still wants to go back to help in the second half of the day. Although Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng said that her help is not needed, the main force of other people's work in the field is women, even if they don't say it, She felt sorry for herself.

"Tomorrow, I will go tomorrow!"

"Alright, tomorrow you come to Fumantang, I'll take you there!"

Mo Dai walked out of the accounting room and out of the backyard, and met Xiao Xiao again in the lobby, Xiao Xiao also seemed to pack up her things and prepare to go home. Xiao Xiao heard that Mo Dai's family was going to harvest wheat today, so she clamored to help. Xiao Xiao's family had no land, and all the food they ate was bought with money, so there was no so-called busy farming. Mo Dai couldn't resist Xiao Xiao and agreed to let her go back with her.

Mo Dai came here today with a bamboo basket on her back, because she wanted to buy more things to go home. The farming season is busy and requires a lot of physical strength, so Mo Dai thought about making more delicious food for Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng, so she went to Mrs. Ding to buy three catties of pork ribs, ten catties of pork belly, and two A large piece of pig blood, and went to a fish shop to buy a crucian carp weighing more than three catties. I saw someone selling hens, and bought two more hens. I passed by a strange goods store, and there were dried shiitake mushrooms and dried fungus for sale. , so I bought those two items again, and when I got out of the strange goods store, Mo Dai's bamboo basket was already full.

Xiao Xiao followed Mo Dai all the time to watch Mo Dai buy things, seeing her buying things in one go, even she, a bystander, felt very refreshed, and at the same time sighed secretly, Mo Daxi was really willing to spend money.

The two hens Modai bought were for Xiao Xiao to hold, so the girl shook the hens upside down along the way, until they both fainted.

The sun was shining and the warm wind was blowing, Xiao Xiao was also in a good mood, and began to hum some outrageous tunes again. Mo Dai also curled up her lips and listened silently. She didn't find it harsh at all, but found it quite innovative.

Humming and humming, Xiao Xiao couldn't help breaking the conversation: "Daxi, do you have to wait until the busy farming season is over before marrying Xiao Sheng?"

"Isn't it good? At least I can stay with you for a few more days. He won't feel at ease if you are alone at home. You might as well find someone to marry."

"I'm looking for it..." Xiao Xiao's voice lowered, and his mood seemed to be a little gloomy.

She has been looking for it, but she just can't find what she likes. In fact, when she sees those men, she will subconsciously compare him with Shi Mo, and then think that he is not tall enough, and his facial features are not deep enough. Not vicious enough, not wicked enough...

In short, when the matchmaker heard what she said, he was so angry that he threw up his sleeves and left, saying that she was sick. Women have always picked men who are graceful and good-looking. Unlike her, she thinks that men are not ugly enough , That's why I don't like it, I'm really stunned!

"It's good if you are looking for it. You can't rush this matter. It depends on your own mentality. If you haven't married by the twenty-fifth, I will definitely find a family of brothers to marry you. You can't let the officials marry you." I will give you a strong man."

"Okay, I'll count on you!" Xiao Xiao shook the hen again, humming her outrageous tune again.

Thinking of rushing back to make lunch, the two walked quickly and arrived home at noon.

As soon as she got home, Maud started to make lunch. Mo Dai originally wanted Xiao Xiao to help harvest the wheat after lunch, but Xiao Xiao couldn't wait, Xu Shaolin wanted to take her to the field, but the three cats playing at the door said they knew the way and volunteered to To take Xiao Xiao there, in fact, they saw Mo Dai and bought a lot of vegetables back, thinking that if they helped Mo Dai, then they would definitely have delicious meat for lunch.

So Xiao Xiao put on a bamboo hat, put on a sweat towel, took a sickle and followed the three cats to the field. Mo Xiaoyu and Mo Xiaoyi also wanted to follow, but when Modai waved at them, they ran back in a hurry. There was no way, although they liked to run and play with the three cats, they preferred Follow mother's side, because there is meat to eat by mother's side.

Mo Dai first grabbed a handful of dried fungus and soaked them in warm water, and then began to wash the rice and cook it in the pot. The spare ribs he bought were chopped, and Mo Dai put them into a pottery pot and washed them with clean water, then poured them into boiling water, scalded them, and fished them out to make sweet and sour spare ribs. There happened to be two pieces of tofu bought in the morning at home, so Mo Dai planned to make red and white tofu with the tofu and the pig's blood she bought.

After the sweet and sour pork ribs and red and white tofu were ready, Mo Dai grabbed a handful of peanuts and put them in a small pot to cook. After cooking, the fungus was almost soaked. Blanch it in boiling water, take it out, cut it into shreds and put it in a clay pot with the cooked peanuts, then add chopped green onion, ginger, garlic and pepper, then put the peppercorns in rapeseed oil to boil and pour over the fungus while it is hot Silk, and finally pour vinegar and mix well.

Modai didn't make any fish, but only scraped off the scales, cut off the internal organs, cleaned them, sprinkled them with fine salt, and preserved them for cooking at night.

Modai didn't cook the soup either, thinking that she would definitely be thirsty when she was harvesting wheat in the field, but unfortunately the lemons she brought before were used up long ago, and now there are only a few green and red hawthorns left at home, so it's too late to boil them at this time I washed a few and cut them into slices and put them in the bamboo tube, add warm water and honey.

After the rice was ready, Mo Dai asked Xu Shaolin, Mo Wuqing and the two little ones to eat first, while she put the rice and vegetables into clay pots, and then put them into bamboo baskets, and brought hawthorns filled with honey Bamboo tubes for water, empty bowls and chopsticks, and then I went to the fields with bamboo baskets to deliver food.

Mo Wuqing looked at Mo Dai's leaving back, and said involuntarily: "Father, all men deliver food, and Mo Daxi, a woman, also delivers food. Doesn't she feel ashamed?"

Xu Shaolin couldn't help but smiled: "This is what our Daxi is good for, you, change your willful temper in the future!"

Mo Wuqing stopped talking and continued to eat sullenly.

When Mo Dai went out, she happened to meet Gongsun Hong, the third minister of Mo Guihua, who was also going to deliver food in the field, and they went together.

As soon as Sun Hong met Mo Dai, he smelled the aroma of the food in her bamboo basket, thinking that the food she prepared must be very rich, and then looked at the dozen or so buns and a bowl of vinegar-soaked radishes in his bamboo basket. dry, and a bowl of two eggs that he gritted his teeth and was willing to fry with green peppers, he felt a little sad.

However, soon Sun Hong's heart was balanced, because he met a few villagers who delivered food on the way, and he found that the food delivered by those people was not as good as his own. Cut into thin strips and soaked in vinegar, and they were willing to scramble two eggs, but those people only served cold steamed buns with large pieces of dried radish.

The villagers who came to deliver the food naturally also smelled the fragrance of the food in Mo Dai's basket, and they were not as tolerant as Sun Hong, so they asked Mo Dai directly: "Daxi, what kind of food did you send to Wu Yun and Wu Feng? It smells weird!"

Mo Dai didn't hide it, and directly lifted the cover of a clay pot to let those people see. So when they saw the pot of sweet and sour pork ribs with an attractive red color and an incomparable fragrance, all the people watching couldn't help swallowing their saliva, and at the same time envied and hated in their hearts: My father, this Mo Daxi really dotes on her husband-in-law so much, there is a big pot of pork ribs, pork ribs, and other unopened dishes, maybe it's braised pork or something!

Sun Hong couldn't help swallowing, he knew that Mo Daxi was willing to buy meat for his family, including their family also ate a lot of meat from her family, although he was very envious of Mo Daxi's kindness to the three Mo Wuyun brothers , but fortunately his wife, Mo Guihua, treated the three brothers well, so he was content.

Soon, there were only Mo Dai and Sun Hong left, because their fields were in the far east. Sun Hong arrived at the field first, Mo Dai stopped and asked Sun Hong to bring an empty bowl, Sun Hong was still a little puzzled at first, when Mo Dai lifted up the vegetables in her basket, put some of each into the bowl and handed it to him , Sun Hong's hands suddenly trembled, and he refused.

Modai smiled and said, "This is for your three cats. Today they helped me bring my friends to work in the field. This is the reward they deserve!"

Sun Hong knew that Mo Dai said this to make him accept the bowl of food without any suspicion, and he finally accepted it. When Mo Guihua, Sun Xi and Sun Yang saw the bowl of food brought by Sun Hong, they sighed and felt grateful again. At this time, the three cats ran to meet their parents while gnawing on a piece of spare ribs.

Mo Dai arrived at the end of the field, cleared a clean space under a big tree, and then called Mo Wuyun, Mo Wufeng and Xiao Xiao, who were still busy harvesting wheat in the field, to come over for dinner.

As soon as the food was set out, Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng were stunned, while Xiao Xiao whistled briskly, and praised: "Daxi, you are so kind, you know I'm here to help, so you do this Lots of dishes!"

"Yes, I really appreciate you coming to help!" Mo Dai smiled and took out four empty bowls and four pairs of chopsticks, then opened the bamboo tubes containing water, and poured out half a bowl for each of them. Drink some water."

Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng sipped honey and hawthorn water, while Xiao Xiao drank the cow's drink in one gulp, and handed the bowl to Mo Dai: "It's sweet and sour, it's so delicious!" Mo Dai took the bowl , filled a bowl of white rice for Xiao Xiao, and heard her exclaim, "White rice, Daxi, you are so willing!"

When the food was in the mouth, Xiao Xiao's mouth couldn't stop, and he praised it while eating, so that Mo Dai couldn't help but want to stick her mouth with paste, this is a typical example of being unable to stop her mouth after eating.

Because of Xiao Xiao's joining, Mo Daxi's five acres of wheat went to more than three acres in one day, and Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng reckoned that they could solve the rest in the first half of tomorrow.

When Xiao Xiao went back, Mo Dai gave her a hen, saying that she would take it back and kill it to eat, but Xiao Xiao couldn't shirk it and had to take it with her, so on the way back, the hen that had just recovered The chicken was shaken to death by Xiao Xiao again.

In the evening, Mo Dai boiled a bath of hot water, and asked Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng, who were tired all day, to take a bath first, so as to relieve fatigue.

Dinner is also white rice, and the dishes are steamed fish, steamed meatballs, and mushrooms and green vegetables.

The two little ones like to eat fish and meatballs, but don't eat mushrooms and small green vegetables very much. However, when Mo Dai put the small green vegetables and mushrooms into their bowls, although they wrinkled their little faces, they would still be happy. eat it.

Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng ate these delicious dishes, remembering the day when they came back from the bullock cart with Mo Daxi, when they said they would go to work in the fields, Mo Daxi said at that time that she would prepare them at home Giving them food, now that she has really fulfilled her promise, it is impossible to say that she is not moved, but at the same time she is moved and feels a little uneasy in her heart. As for the uneasiness, they can't explain clearly.

The next day, when Mo Dai arrived at Fumantang, Fang Ling's carriage was already waiting at the door.

After Fang Ling sent Mo Dai to Shi's residence, he left without going in to visit Shi Lan, and asked Mo Dai not to mention that she sent her here. This Shi Lan's self-willedness has reached its peak. If she knows that Fang Ling sent Mo Daxi here, rather than Mo Daxi who sensed that she was dying, then maybe she will hunt for death and make trouble for everyone in the Shi residence. None of them can live in peace.

Mo Dai knocked on the door, a servant opened the door, and upon hearing that she was Mo Daxi, he immediately invited her in.

In the bosom friend's house in the East Garden, Shi Lan was threatening his mother, father, brothers, husbands, husbands, and all the maids and servants in Shi's mansion with his life as always.

"I don't take medicine, are you deaf? Can't you hear what I'm saying?" Shi Lan weakly cursed and brought the medicine over to Bai Yi, with a pale face, big sunken eyes, black eye circles, protruding His cheekbones were already the face of a dying person, and there was still half of the original delicate and pretty face.

Shi Xiyan no longer wanted to persuade her to drink medicine anymore, she knew that her daughter Shi Lan was dying soon, and she wanted her to get married and keep a daughter and a half, but she didn't want to ignore the five brothers at all after they got married. One glance, and he refused to take the medicine, apart from throwing bowls and swearing at others all day long, he just kept chanting the name Mo Daxi like a dream. Shi Xiyan didn't want to admit that her daughter was a freak who liked girls but didn't like boys, and she also felt that Shi Lan didn't just like Mo Daxi. As for what kind of affection Shi Lan had for Mo Daxi, she couldn't figure it out.

At this time, Xiaoliu, the servant, ran into the door in panic and surprise and said loudly: "Miss, Mo, Miss Mo is here to see you!"

Hearing this, Shi Xiyan understood, she knew that Fang Ling sent Mo Daxi over, but she couldn't show that she knew about it in front of Shi Lan, so she pretended to be taken aback: "Really? Hurry up, please!"

Bai Yi, who was still holding the medicine, couldn't help but froze when he heard Mo Daxi coming, and the medicine bowl in his hand couldn't help shaking.

As soon as Shi Lan heard that Mo Daxi was coming, he immediately came back from the overdraft of death, very energetic, and was eager to get up from the couch to meet her. But she tried to get up independently several times but failed, and she didn't want to call Xiao Liu or Bai Yi for help, so she could only lie down on the bed again dejected.

When Mo Dai entered the room, what she saw was Shi Lan lying weakly on the couch, tilting her head, looking at her with deep-set eyes expectantly. Looking at Shi Lan, who was sick and boned, Mo Daidang even frowned, it's only been a month, how could this person make himself into such a state?

Shi Xiyan saw Mo Dai approaching, before Mo Dai clasped her fists and bowed to her, she held her hand, her mother's heartache and helplessness flashed in her eyes: "Daxi, you are here, you have been here for the past two days. Lan'er keeps talking about you, you are here now, you really have a good understanding!" Then she gave Mo Dai a look without any trace, she hoped that Mo Dai could follow her words and say that her daughter has already passed away. She couldn't bear any mental stimulation anymore, even if she was going, she hoped that she could go peacefully.

Mo Dai naturally understood what Shi Xiyan was thinking, so she said, "Last night I dreamed about Shi Lan, so I came to see her today!" Mo Dai just wanted to call Miss Shi, but thought that Shi Lan hated her title She is Miss Shi, so she temporarily changed her words, hoping that Shi Xiyan would not be offended.

Sure enough, after Mo Dai said this, Shi Lan looked at her very happily: "Daxi, Daxi, you finally came to see me!"

After Shi Xiyan secretly sighed, she walked out.

Seeing that Bai Yi was still standing there holding the medicine bowl, Mo Dai said, "Give me the medicine, you go out first!"

Bai Yi handed the medicine bowl to Mo Dai in a daze, and then walked out in a daze. Looking at Bai Yi's back, Mo Dai always felt that he was covered with a layer of death, not much better than Shi Lan. It seems that they are not doing well when they marry into Shi Zhai, also, it is strange that Shi Lan, a willful and sick wife-owner, can get well.

Mo Dai took the medicine bowl and walked to the low stool in front of the couch and sat down: "Why don't you drink the medicine?"

Shi Lan frowned and pouted: "I don't want to drink medicine, anyway, I will die if I drink it or not, and the medicine is so bitter and unpalatable, why should I make myself more bitter before I die?"

"But do you know why those dying people still drink medicine desperately before they die?" Mo Dai said, putting the medicine bowl on the low table beside him.

"I think they are asking for trouble!" Shi Lan said sullenly.

"You're wrong, it's not that they are looking for guilt, they just don't want to give up the hope of life, and another point, the reason why they desperately drink the bitter medicine that their family members grab for them is because they don't want to break the family's inner feelings. I hope that, no matter how bitter the medicine is, they will insist on drinking it until the last moment before they die." Looking at Shi Lan's pale face, Mo Dai said meaningfully, "And you? How did you do it? Are you How do you treat the family members who care about you? You don’t just break the hope in their hearts, I think you can’t wait for all of them to accompany you to suffer and die together before you are willing, isn’t it?”

Shi Lan remained silent, but after a while tears suddenly shed, and trembling lips said: "Daxi, I know what you said is right, but I, but I feel bad, I'm going to die, you see, you've come to see me on your own initiative Doesn't it mean that I will die today? I beg you, don't train me again before I die, I just want to lie quietly in your arms and die..."

Shi Lan was crying, the tears kept sliding down the corners of his eyes, soaking the hair around his ears, and the collarbone under his neck, which was too protruding due to his thin body, twitched. Mo Dai suddenly felt a little sad, this girl It's just that she is too afraid of the coming of death in order to vent her pain through willfulness, as if she will feel better only when she sees the painful and helpless expressions of her family members after venting her willfulness.

Shi Lan was afraid of death, didn't want to die, and she could save her, but did she want to save her?

She saved Wufeng, Xiaoyu, and Wuqing, because they were her family, so she saved them as a matter of course, without any worries.

She admits that she is selfish, because Shi Lan is not her family, and even friends can barely be called friends. After all, she has some instinctive resistance and disgust towards this wayward rich daughter who doesn't know the sufferings of the world, but She had to admit that Shi Lan also had a pure and beautiful side in her heart. For example, she believed that she was her friend, no matter how alienated and indifferent she was, she never gave up.

"Shi Lan, let me ask you, have you ever thought about how you will live your life without illness and pain if your illness suddenly heals?"

"Hey, Daxi, stop teasing me. I'm about to die. What's the point of saying this?"

"Don't you want to chat with me? Anyway, you won't die for a while, so let's talk about how you plan to spend your life if your illness is cured and you have a healthy body."

Shi Lan looked at Mo Dai, and when he heard Mo Dai say that she would not die for a while, a sad smile appeared on his face: "Okay, then let me who can't die for a while come if Let’s take a look at my life that will never be realized! If my illness is cured, I will definitely be a free and unrestrained ranger, visiting every scenic spot in my Great Moon Dynasty, and I will ride a horse in the vast On the prairie, I can still drink big bowls and eat meat with big pieces, just like Wu Niang in Wu Niang Fighting Tigers, I also want to wade into the mountains and forests to fight tigers, I want to be like the female military adviser in the empty city plan, Strategizing, chatting and laughing, the masts and sculls disappear in ashes, I want to be like Monkey King in Journey to the West, all the monsters and ghosts can be easily captured, of course, if one day I meet a white rabbit that is about to freeze to death, I will definitely save it, and then When I encounter difficulties, let it take the initiative to sacrifice its own body..."

"Okay, stop!" Mo Dai interrupted Shi Lan's endless imagination, that's all, she could tell that Shi Lan never thought about what she would do in the future, because she knew that she had no future, even if If you don't come out.

"Daxi..." Shi Lan just called out and began to cough, and the coughing got worse and couldn't stop at all. She covered her mouth with her hands, and it didn't subside until another cloud of blood came out, "Daxi , Am I dying? Hurry up and hold me, I'm going to die in your arms..."

Seeing the shocking blood, Mo Dai's heart ached again, but when she heard what Shi Lan said later, she felt it was funny again, that's all, help!

"Shi Lan, didn't you say you want to be my bosom friend?"

"Yes, but you have never agreed..."

"I promise you now."

"Really?"

"real!"

"Hehehe, I'm so happy, Daxi, but I'm about to die, and I suddenly feel that it's better not to be friends with you, because I'm getting more and more reluctant to die..."

"How about we become sisters?"

"OK…"

"That's a blood oath."

"Okay... I should still have blood to drip on my body..."

"You still have to light that kind of extremely strong incense all over the house, can you bear it?"

"I can bear it... I will let Xiaoliuzi prepare the incense for fuming the thatched cottage, hehehe, that kind of fragrance is strong..."

Modai wanted to laugh again, and she was willing to save her just because she could joke with her when she was about to die.

So, next, Xiao Liu came over with a bundle of incense from the hut, and lit it inside and outside the Zhiji Pavilion. The whole yard was filled with a strong smell of incense, and Shi Lan was choked and coughed. , Shi Xiyan came to stop him after learning about it, but Shi Lan cried and begged to leave.

A bowl of water was prepared on the short table. Mo Dai took out a needle and pierced Shi Lan's ring finger and dripped a drop of blood into the bowl. At the same time, she quickly pricked her own ring finger and dripped a drop of blood into it. In an instant, a strong fragrance filled the whole room. Although it was covered by the strong smell of incense, Shi Lan could still smell the difference in the fragrance, which made her cough stop slightly.

Mo Dai hurriedly said: "God is above, today I, Mo Daxi, would like to become sworn sisters with Shi Lan, so that we can share weal and woe from now on, and we will depend on each other for good and bad!"

Shi Lan continued: "In heaven, I, Shi Lan, would like to become sworn sisters with Mo Daxi today. From then on, we will share joys and sorrows, and we will depend on each other for good and bad!"

Enduring the feeling of nausea, Mo Dai took a sip meaningfully, and then handed the remaining bowl of water to Shi Lan. Shi Lan didn't feel disgusted, so she grabbed the bowl and drank it all at once.

After drinking, she wiped her mouth with a smile, and said, "Daxi, we have finally become good sisters!" After saying this, she suddenly clutched her chest, trembling all over, then closed her eyes and passed out .

At this time, Bai Yi suddenly broke in, and while Mo Dai was looking at Shi Lan's body, he pulled off his own clothes and threw himself on Mo Dai, and then pulled off Mo Dai's clothes , and shouted loudly: "Come here, help me..."

When Mo Dai reacted, she suddenly pushed Bai Yi away, and hurriedly straightened her clothes, but at this moment, Shi Xiyan, her three husbands, her two sons, and Bai Er to Bai Wu suddenly barged in.

Mo Dai frowned, and coldly glanced at Bai Yi who was pushed to the ground and cried helplessly, feeling a sense of disgust in her heart.
