Chapter 245 Heavy Topics

"I actually envy you and Yize very much. I'm used to being submissive. I used to be bullied in the village because I lost my parents. My brother is young and malnourished. He's bigger than you but short like a carrot."

Huang Song rested on the hammock, and retorted dissatisfiedly: "I'm not a carrot, my sister is not allowed to speak ill of me."

"Stinky boy, you haven't slept yet?" Huang Qian smiled and kicked him, "Get up if you don't sleep, the eldest sister is still under the canopy helping the master get the medicinal materials, you go to work."

"I don't, I go back to the village to collect medicine after I'm full. I'm so tired that my back hurts, so I'll lie down again." Huang Song muttered softly, "You didn't go either."

Ji Yihan laughed and said, "Your sister's hands are cut, and she's still covered with barnyard grass!"

"Girls are squeamish." Huang Song said disgusted, but he still listened to his sister Huang Qian, got up and went under the canopy to help Yun Su sort out the herbs that had been picked earlier.

Yun Su was hot and sweating profusely at this moment, seeing that the youngest Huang Song had come, she was a little surprised: "Didn't I tell you to go to rest, I'll do it with your senior sister and senior brother, you go and rest .”

"That's right, he's the youngest and the shortest. Hurry up and rest more and eat more, and grow up early." Wei Kang, wearing gloves, grabbed the roots of the herbs, and separated the branches and leaves into different snakeskin bags.

Huang Song's mouth was a little dry, and his voice was a little dry when he spoke: "I didn't go to bed early, my sister and Yihan were chatting."

Yun Su was amused by his tone, and handed over the water bottle beside him: "Drink your saliva to moisten your throat first, and if you really can't sleep, go to the kitchen and make some mung bean soup, and take it to the medicine field in the afternoon to quench your thirst."

Her innate goodwill, magnified a little bit in front of these lands, can easily move these apprentices who have never had the affection of the elders.

The master-student relationship is growing day by day, not to mention Ji Changcheng who has helped each other earlier.

When he came back from hunting, he saw these four apprentices find every reason to stay at his house for dinner more than once, going back and forth every day.

The status of the hostess was almost shaken by these young children.

Ji Changcheng slandered in his heart, and it was hard for him to be alone with Yun Su for a while until the apprentices left.

"What's wrong with your eyes, they look a little red." Yun Su asked curiously, put down the ledger in his hand, and looked closer at Ji Changcheng.

"Oh, when I was hunting today, my eyes were smeared by the splashing sand. It may be because my eyelids were worn out, so I felt uncomfortable."

Yun Su frowned: "You can still be blinded by mud and sand with such skill, so it's not because you were distracted while hunting, right?"

It was really guessed by Yun Su.

Ji Changcheng was indeed distracted. He received a letter from Ying Falcon in Luoyun Mountain, and there was another turmoil in the court. From the turmoil in Xuanzhou to the small-scale friction at the border, His Royal Highness has begun to work diligently.

"I have prepared eye drops here again, do you want to try it?" Yun Su asked proactively, got up and went to the cabinet to get her homemade eye drops.

The formula is actually very simple, just add anti-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory antibacterial agents after extracting herbs for improving eyesight and relieving fatigue.

"When did you make the eye drops?" Ji Changcheng asked curiously.

"Before, Zhou Fugui, the village head, squeezed the labor force. When I made him a brochure for the promotion of medicine fields, I always felt that my eyes were dry and astringent, so I did it." Yun Su replied truthfully.

She unscrewed the eye drops, motioned Ji Changcheng to look up, dripped a few drops for him, and signaled him to close his eyes and rest for a while.

"The shelf life of this eyedrop is only about [-] days. If you don't need to throw it away, isn't it a waste?" Yun Su gently blew off the eyedrop that flowed out of his eyes, and wiped it clean with a veil.

This movement of you coming and going has long been extremely natural, and neither of them felt that there was any intimacy and ambiguity, as if it had become a habitual action.

However, Ji Changcheng asked inappropriately: "Yun Su, do you give your apprentices eye drops as well?"

"No." Yun Su stuffed the eye drops into Ji Changcheng's hand, and told him, "Take it six or seven times a day, especially before going to bed."

"I thought you were so kind and considerate to everyone." When Ji Changcheng was holding the eye drops, he touched Yun Su's fingertips.

Yun Su was taken aback, and answered slowly: "I'm not a bad person. I won't do things that harm others or benefit myself, but I don't think there is anything wrong with self-interest and not harming others. I treat apprentices with instinct." .”

"But you have to be smart. It's a good thing to be kind to others, but it's good not to be used." Ji Changcheng said frankly: "You protect your apprentices too well, but it will make them lack awareness of the viciousness of people's hearts."

"I'm sensible." Yun Su knew that he had good intentions, "Did you hear something?"

In fact, Yun Su also understood that the village chief Zhou Fugui used the promotion of the medicine field several times to get in touch with a few apprentices frequently.

"My apprentices are different from ordinary children. They have come into contact with the dark side noisyly, and some even refused to believe in the light for a while. This is what worries me." Yun Su confessed.

She hasn't talked with Ji Changcheng about these sensitive topics for a long time.

"After today's quiz, I found that Huang Qian is even more withdrawn than I thought. She is very insecure, but also extremely calm. At this age, if you are not careful, you will go astray."

Ji Changcheng nodded, he had seen countless people, so he could see this, "Have you ever known this pair of siblings?"

Yun Su nodded.

In her opinion, the more sensitive and precocious children are related to the turmoil in their native families.

"The head of the village next door knew that Huang Qian's sister and brother were learning to grow medicine fields here, so they came here once."

Yun Su sighed while speaking, "He told me the hardships of the Huang family siblings. When their parents passed away, there was a famine. It is common to change children to eat, and people's nerves are tense."

"That's right, there was indeed a famine when I came to this village in the early years." The imperial court did nothing, corrupt officials rampant, exorbitant taxes made people breathless, plus natural disasters and no harvest, it's no wonder that Yizi died .

When Ji's family was ransacked and wiped out, all the family properties of the implicated officials were confiscated to fill the empty treasury.

"At that stage, hope becomes a luxury. When people are desperate, they are always suspicious. Huang Qian's parents tied their children with belts when they slept. They were afraid that they would be snatched away by the children and become food for their hunger."

Yun Su resisted the sadness and continued: "Until the time of helplessness, Huang Qian's father broke his arm in exchange for food. In many cases, if there is one, there will be two. Relying on this method, Huang Qian and his younger brother survived." .”

"Huang Qian was only three or four years old at the time, and the village chief said she shouldn't remember."
