The female medical concubine of the peasant

Chapter 56 Entering the city for the first time

Wei Xiao'e went to Wei Zheng's house in the morning, and in the evening, Mrs. Cui came to the west courtyard.

Seeing that Mrs. Cui was holding a porcelain pot and basket again, Wei Xiao'e was both happy and surprised.The good news is that it seems that Wei Zheng's condition has improved, and Mrs. Cui is here to thank him.She was surprised that she hadn't told Yuan Shi about this matter yet. If Mrs. Cui said it directly, Yuan Shi wouldn't be suspicious.

Fortunately, because Mrs. Cui yelled before entering the door, Wei Xiao'e ran out to greet her, and the two of them still had time to talk.

"Grandma," Wei Xiao'e greeted Mrs. Cui in the yard, and whispered with a bit of pleading on her face, "My mother doesn't like being mentioned about her skills, you see."

"I don't want to mention it," Mrs. Cui nodded.Since Wei Xiao'e said so, she didn't want to embarrass this girl.

"Thank you grandma," Wei Xiao'e thanked in a low voice, then raised her voice and said, "Grandma, why are you so polite, you made delicious food and brought us a portion, which made Xiao'e feel embarrassed."

"Look at what you girl said," Mrs. Cui followed her words and said, "You are exactly what grandpa said all day long. If you hadn't reached out to help in time last winter, he would have been gone. No, we still have a lot of money left in our family." I picked a big piece of meat, made broth and brought it here for you two to taste."

"Auntie," Yuan Shi also stood under the eaves with Wei Qingyun in his arms, and said with a bit of embarrassment: "It was just a coincidence that the little goose met, besides, it has been so long, It deserves such a few thanks." She knew about that, so when she saw that Mrs. Cui had brought over something again, she naturally felt that she was too polite.

After hearing this, Mrs. Cui took it as Yuan's modesty.Also, maybe Yuan Shi didn't want to let others know that she is proficient in medical skills because of her gratitude?

This time, the method given by Wei Xiao'an really worked, but after drinking the water boiled with radish seeds for a long time, Wei Zheng's legs disappeared a little.

Seeing that such a simple method cured Wei Zheng's illness that he thought he had in his eyes, Wei Zheng's family was naturally very grateful to Wei Xiao'e, so Mrs. Cui killed another chicken and prepared some pancakes sent over.

Yuan Shi and Mrs. Cui naturally gave way, but in the end, of course, Mrs. Cui insisted on keeping the things.

Before leaving, Mrs. Cui said to Mrs. Yuan: "Tomorrow my Yuanshan family is going to Dingping City. There are several people in the village who want to take a ride with them. Let Xiao'e go out and have a look?" Since Wei Xiao'e won't let When she mentioned what happened yesterday, Mrs. Cui, of course, was a favor and helped Xiao Goose to tell the story.

Yesterday, Wei Xiao'e originally planned to go out and then come back to tell Yuan Shi that he could decide whether to go or not, so he didn't mention it to Yuan Shi.

Now when Mrs. Cui said that, although I wondered how it changed from a town to a city, it would be even better if I could go to the city.She also looked at Yuan Shi eagerly.

Seeing Wei Xiao'e's longing look, Yuan's heart was sour and astringent.Pity the child, if Dashan was at home, how could the daughter be the pillar of the family at such a young age.Usually this child is tired and miserable, and her mother can't help her. Now her daughter wants to go out and have a look, how can she bear to refuse.

Nodding, Yuan Shi said to Old Madam Cui: "Then please trouble my aunt to let Brother Yuanshan take care of the little goose. It is her first time out of the village, so she will not understand anything."

"Of course," Wei Zheng relied on Wei Xiao'e this time, and half of his trips to the city this time were to send Wei Xiao'e off, so of course he would take good care of him.Mrs. Cui nodded and said: "This time there are a few hitchhikers, all of whom are older than Xiao Goose, and everyone will take care of her." The people in the village, as long as their family talks, everyone will take care of Wei Xiao Goose one or two.

All the words have been said here, Yuan Shi naturally has nothing to say.

And when Wei Xiao'e sent old lady Cui out, and asked why he was going to Dingping City tomorrow, old lady Cui said with a smile that Wei Zheng's body was recovering, so naturally he didn't have to go to town for now.And a younger sister of her natal family was there, and she had been going to see her for a long time, but it happened that she was fine now, so she asked her son to go and see her.

Hearing this, Wei Xiao'e immediately understood in her heart that Wei Zheng's family came here for her sake, and that Mrs. Cui may or may not let her son go to her sister.

After seeing off Mrs. Cui, Wei Xiao'e let out a long sigh.She didn't understand why the whole family couldn't help each other and get along well.And the old courtyard and the west courtyard were originally a family, so why couldn't they get along peacefully.

After Mrs. Cui left, Yuan handed a small purse to Wei Xiao'e.

Holding the hard thing inside, Wei Xiao'e couldn't help looking at Yuan Shi.

"Twenty copper coins." Yuan Shi smiled slightly and said, "If you go to the city, if there is something you like, you can buy it."

Twenty copper coins, thinking that one copper coin can buy a steamed stuffed bun, and comparing the current situation of the family, Wei Xiao'e knew that this must be a lot of money for the family.Consider that it has been several months since she came to this place, and the family has not spent a penny.

Handing the purse back, Wei Xiao'e shook her head and said, "Mom, I don't want it. Didn't you prepare two steamed buns for me? Besides, everyone won't buy and eat at that time. If I buy it, do you want to give it to me?" What about others?" This is probably part of Yuan's small amount of money, and she doesn't want to use it.

"Stupid child," Yuan Shi sighed softly, and said, "It's hard to go to the city, what if you don't have money for something you like?"

Wei Xiao'e has experienced poverty, and has always adhered to the belief that food, clothing, and family assets must be based on her own financial conditions, so she will not spend money indiscriminately because of vanity.

But when it came to money, an idea occurred to her.In winter, she went to the back mountain to pick up a lot of walnuts and chestnuts.There are also dried mushrooms picked during this time.These can all be exchanged for money.

Thinking about it, she went to pack some of everything and filled half of the basket.As for those copper coins, after the two of them pushed and pulled for a long time, Wei Xiao'e finally took five copper coins.

The next day, Wei Yuanshan's car left Wei Village early in the morning.In addition to Wei Xiao'e, there was also a man who wanted to go shopping in the city, a woman who was going to visit relatives in a village passing by on the way to the city and would stay for two days, and Da Zhuang brother and sister.

When seeing Xiao Ju, Wei Xiao'e smiled at Da Zhuang.She knew in her heart that the two brothers and sisters were simply by her side.

There was no talking along the way, and after an hour and a half, Dingping City, eighty miles away, was finally in sight.

Changzhou Prefecture is the border state capital. Although Dingping Prefecture under its rule is the innermost prefecture and county in Changzhou, because it is the only way to Kyoto, the city walls are naturally high and heavily guarded.

After entering the city, Wei Yuanshan directly took them all to the busiest street market, and discussed with a few people that they would meet at the intersection at the end of the afternoon before going to his aunt's house.
