The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 5 Little White Flower

Su Yunduo has been in this space for the past few days. After some quiet observation and combined with the memory of the original owner, he found that although the disaster year has just passed, the price of food here is not too high, but the price of seeing a doctor and taking medicine is astonishingly high.

In order to save Su Chengzhi's life these days, apart from Uncle Ning's five taels of silver, all the money Ning earned from embroidering purse handkerchiefs these days was also bought into medicine and drunk into Su Chengzhi's stomach.

Seeing that the weather is getting colder and colder, how can a family of five survive the winter with only that little food, not to mention that when their family came out of the Su family, their grandparents didn't even give them a piece of vegetable land, and as for the fertile land, they didn't have any at all!

Therefore, even if the whole family survived the winter, if Su Chengzhi's illness could not be cured, they would probably have to wait for death.

How could Su Yunduo watch his family starve to death and freeze to death? After realizing the fact that he would never go back to modern times, in order to survive, he settled down at home every morning and went into the mountains with a basket on his back to look for everything that could be eaten.

Although Ning was worried about Su Yunduo going to the mountains alone, but in the face of the resolute Su Yunduo, she could only forcefully send Su Yunduo out.

She herself has a pregnant belly, and she has to take care of Su Chengzhi, who is seriously ill in bed, and her young son. Fortunately, her eight-year-old eldest son, Su Zexuan, has been able to help her with what she can do.

Although Ning is weak, she has a pair of dexterous hands. Because of her pair of dexterous hands, she did some embroidery work, exchanged some silver taels for Su Chengzhi to grab medicine, and Su Chengzhi finally did not run out of soup.

Maybe it was because Ning was willing to spend money to go to the sky to see Ning's infatuation, maybe Su Chengzhi's life should not be killed, but Su Chengzhi's life was not only suspended, but there were signs of improvement, and the family finally saw a glimmer of hope.

But Su Yunduo knew that with Su Chengzhi's condition, if he couldn't find a way to give him good medicine and some good supplements to replenish his lost body, it would be very difficult for him to get better, even if Su Yunduo was sure that Su Chengzhi's illness at this time was not tuberculosis , but it may not necessarily turn into tuberculosis if it continues like this.

Tuberculosis, also known as tuberculosis in modern times, is difficult to be cured by modern medicine, let alone in this era of poor medicine, Su Yunduo can't just watch Su Chengzhi die, she can't imagine what will happen to Ning's family once Su Chengzhi dies , This is also an important reason why Su Yunduo ventured into the mountains today.

Fortunately, the sky has eyes, and Su Yunduo let her find the treasure the first time she risked her life into the deep mountains. Su Yunduo, who was sitting in the mud with her back to Su Yunying, pressed her chest secretly, thankful that she didn't take this matter, which might change the fate of the whole family. Put her baby in the back basket but keep it close to her body, otherwise 100% of it will fall into Su Yunying's hands.

Seeing that Su Yunying, who pushed her to the ground and still didn't let go of her hatred, was jumping up and down and stepping on the wild vegetables she had picked back with great difficulty, Su Yunduo was really angry.

The current Su Yunduo is no longer the person who allowed Su Yunying to bully him without daring to speak out. Although the modern Yunduo has a gentle personality, she is a girl with clear grievances and grievances. She also knows that Ma Shan is ridden by others and Ren Shan is bullied Reasonable, naturally can't tolerate Su Yunying riding on his head and domineering.

Su Yunduo was about to get up from the ground to argue with Su Yunying, but at this moment when he heard the creaking sound of bullock carts from far and near, Su Yunduo's eyes darkened, and he suddenly had a better idea in his heart.

Only the village head Liu Donglin's family in Geshan Village has ox carts. Most of the people who drove the ox carts to the village at this time were the village head Liu Donglin who came back from outside.

Su Yunduo slightly raised his eyelids to look around, and sure enough, there was an ox cart coming slowly from a distance, and the people sitting in that cart were not Liu Donglin and his wife, but also their old son Liu Yushu.

It turned out that Liu Donglin took his mother-in-law Wei to Fangcun, Pingshui Town to visit his daughter who had just given birth early this morning. Because the child finally gave birth to a boy, both parents were very happy, so they drank two more cups at noon and came out from the daughter's house. It was already late, and in addition, he went to Linxi Town to pick up Liu Yushu, who happened to be taking a bath tomorrow, so he came back even later.

Halfway through the journey, the wind blew up and then it rained, so the ox cart naturally drove slowly. Seeing the sky gradually darken, and finally seeing the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, the family of three could not help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

Seeing the ox cart getting closer, and then coldly looking at Su Yunying who was dancing happily with her back to the ox cart, a hint of calculation flashed in Su Yunduo's eyes, and asked her to make a soft little white flower first Bar!

Before Liu Donglin drove the ox cart to the entrance of the village, he heard a noise coming from under the old locust tree.

"Sister Yunying, don't step on it, please don't step on it again! This is because I ran a lot of mountain roads and finally found wild vegetables and wild fruits. My parents and younger brother are still waiting for these wild vegetables and fruits to fill their stomachs."

"I stomp, I stomp, I stomp! It's just some yellow and withered weeds and a few rotten fruits. You dare not let me see something that even pigs don't eat. Let's see if you dare to do it next time." Dare to dodge!"

"Woooo... Sister Yunying, without these wild vegetables and fruits, my parents and younger brother will starve to death. Please, don't step on them."

"Your parents and younger brothers and sisters starved to death, what does it have to do with me?!"

Liu Yushu, who had been talking to Wei in a low voice on the bullock cart, heard the noise, and looked up under the old locust tree, with an extremely complicated expression on his face, disgust and distress appeared on his face at the same time.

Wei's gaze was also attracted by the commotion, and when he saw the two people under the old locust tree, his brows could not help but tighten, and his gaze fell on his son's face, and his brows tightened even more.

What kind of thoughts are in her son's heart, Wei Shi naturally understands, and it is precisely because of understanding that it gives her a headache, and she can't help moving her body to block her son's sight.

Liu Donglin, who was sitting in front driving the bullock cart, only glanced under the old pagoda tree, frowned deeply and cursed fiercely: "Old Su's family, the mother and daughter, really have a lot of time. It's hard for Su. The family of the third child!"

"It's also because Su Lao San and his wife are not up to date. One is obviously a scholar and the other has excellent embroidery skills, but they are being manipulated by the two elders of the old Su family and the old master Su!" Wei said. Curling his lips, he was quite disapproving.

Liu Yushu opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, and fixed his eyes on Su Yunduo through Wei Shi.

In Liu Yushu's eyes at this time, Su Yunduo is like a weak white flower that has been torn by a strong wind, which is really distressing. Liu Yushu's eyes flashed a deep heartache and a slight sense of powerlessness.

"Alas..." Liu Donglin sighed for a long time, and he didn't know whether he was sighing for Su Chengzhi's family, or because of such troubles in the village.

The bullock cart gradually approached the old locust tree, and Su Yunying, who had his back to the road, was still yelling while jumping and stomping on things scattered on the muddy ground, and he didn't even notice the approaching bullock cart.

Su Yunduo knelt and sat in the mud, begging while arching her body and opening her arms to protect something.

Beside them was a squashed pannier, presumably what Su Yunying was trampling on was the wild vegetables and fruits that Su Yunduo said.
