The daily life of a charming girl who made a fortune in ancient times

Chapter 45

After waking up, the old man habitually grasped with his right hand. Because he failed to grasp the long sword that had been kept by his side all year round, he immediately woke up, his muscles tensed, and he was extremely alert.The sound of rustling rain in the distance, the sound of dripping water leaking in and out, the sound of breathing less than two feet away from me, the dry quilt covering my body, the treated wound on my waist... I have met a good person.

The girl refused to listen to the advice and rescued him.

The old man opened his eyes slowly, turned his gaze from the roof to the bedside, and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy sitting beside the bed.

Dafu, who was guarding the bed, saw the old man woke up, got up and ran away.

Looking at his back, the old man grinned silently. From this point of view, he is a simple and honest child.

There was a sound of footsteps, and the old man saw an upright man walking in. The girl with a birthmark on her face behind him was the one who was sheltering herself from the rain on the hillside.The old man raised his head and thanked, "Old man Shen Shangzhi, may I ask you two benefactors what to call them?"

"You always lie down and don't move." Uncle Ma clasped his fists and said briefly, "Ma Qinglin in Xiawusha Town, this is my niece Ruyu. Don't be too polite, we are from the same town as Chen Jingcheng and Fourth Master Chen, and we are in difficult times It is right to help. Ruyu, do you think the old man is better?"

Shen Shangzhi habitually held his wrist with several scratches, waiting for Lin Ruyu to feel his pulse.

Lin Ruyu smiled, "I'm making you laugh. I don't know how to check the pulse, but I can barely recognize a few herbs. My mother is cooking porridge. You can drink two bowls later and some soup. As long as there is no heat tonight, you should It'll be fine."

This old man Shen was seriously injured, and he hadn't eaten for another day and night. Lin Ruyu was relieved that he was still so energetic when he woke up.

The old man was in good health, so it was not in vain that Chen Ge jumped into the flood to get the medicine, and when he came back, he was so tired that he lay down for half a day before getting up.

Shen Shang looked at the "birthmark" on Lin Ruyu's face, and there was a bit of envy in his eyes. After thanking Ma Sanshu and Lin Ruyu, he said, "After the flood, there was no food, no food, no manpower in the yamen, what's the matter with starving people?" You can do it all, you must be careful when you go out. The old man is being hunted down by his enemies, so stay here for another night, tomorrow morning..."

Shen Shang, who hadn't finished speaking, saw Shen Ge walking in with a bowl, his lion eyes widened instantly, struggling to sit up.

Uncle Ma hurriedly raised his hand to hold him down, "Master, slow down, we don't have much medicine, there is no medicine for you to wipe the wound on Bengkai's body, I will help you up."

Shen Ge, who was holding the bowl, was trembling excitedly when he saw Shen Shang staring at his beard, and was also stunned.

Lin Ruyu looked at Mr. Shen, then turned to look at Shen Ge, and found that their facial features were somewhat similar.

Thinking of the reason why An Ziyuan wanted to kill Shen Ge, thinking of the man in gray who chased and killed An Ziyuan and the man in gray who was killed by Mr. Shen at the foot of the hill, Lin Ruyu got up and was about to give up his seat to Shen Ge, so she listened to Mr. Shen. He asked tremblingly, "This is..."

Uncle Ma stuffed the pillow behind his back, told him to sit back, and said, "This is my nephew Shen Ge. You always wake up so quickly because Ruyu gave you medicine to scrub and mend your wounds. Because Shen Ge ventured to find medicine for your knife wounds from the flood. Apart from this temple, there is no other place to rest on the mountain. Those who chased and killed you have been cleaned up by someone, so you can rest assured here to recuperate."

"Thank you." Shen Shangzhi, who had been staring at Shen Ge, told himself not to get too excited, try to calm his emotions, and asked, "I would like to ask, how old is your nephew this year? His parents..."

"He is seventeen this year, and his parents are both natives of Wusha Town." Uncle Ma gave a brief introduction, without mentioning Chen Ge's background, he took the porridge from Chen Ge's hand and said, "You should drink some porridge first." Make up the pads and nourish the stomach, and drink medicine later."

Seventeen, native?My grandson is fifteen this year...

But Shen Ge's appearance is so similar to his eldest son, Shen Shangzhi still couldn't take his gaze away from Shen Ge's face, and couldn't help but look forward to it in his heart.

Lin Ruyu gave up the seat to Shen Ge, and said in a low voice, "Shen Ge and third uncle will take care of the old man first, and I will make the medicine."

Shen Ge nodded and stepped forward, jokingly said, "Do you always see that I look familiar? Ten days ago, someone also said that I look familiar, and then he wanted my life several times."

Shen Shangzhi raised his eyelids, his face suddenly became sharp, "Who is that man, and where is he now?"

"Drink the porridge first." Shen Ge, who had one arm hurt, sat at the end of the bed, watching Uncle Ma feed the porridge to Old Man Shen.

Knowing the news that the old man had woken up, Shengzi and Xiao Aheng entered the house curiously and watched for a while, then ran back to the kitchen.Shengzi squatted beside the burning Dafu, muttering in a low voice, "Brother Dafu, did you notice that this uncle looks like my brother?"

After bringing Mr. Shen back, Uncle Ma followed what Lin Ruyu said and told the children that this was his own uncle, and that's why they called him "uncle" when they had children.

Daifuku was concentrating on lighting the fire, so naturally he would not answer the question of having a child.Shengzi handed Dafu a piece of dry firewood, then raised his head and asked Fang, "Auntie, are we going to steam buns tonight?"

Fang said gently, "First boil some water for your uncle, and then steam the steamed buns later, are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry. The bamboo shoots made by my aunt at noon are so delicious. I'm still full." After the child finished speaking, he ran to Lin Ruyu, who was making medicine, and whispered, "Sister Ruyu, I have something to do." Son, I can’t help but want to ask you for a long time: You said there are worms in the raw water, you have to boil it to drink it, right?”

"Yes." To be precise, there may be bacteria, viruses and parasites harmful to the human body in the raw water, but it is not convenient for Lin Ruyu to explain more.

Shengzi scratched his head, moved closer to Lin Ruyu, and asked in a low voice, "Why can't I see the bugs?"

Lin Ruyu explained, "Because the bugs are too small to be seen with the naked eye."

"Then..." Shengzi moved a little closer, and the little Ah Heng who was playing with the rabbit next to him thought they were talking about something funny, so he also moved his little head over.

"Then... the water boils and the bugs die, so what we drink is water with bug meat?"

Lin Ruyu was adding herbs to the medicine jar...

"Hey..." Ma Sanshu walked in with an empty bowl, and sighed habitually, "This old man is also a poor man."

"Knowing that the old man has returned from victory, the family is preparing a reception banquet...Because the old man likes to eat the crab roe buns from Fenghualou, my eldest grandson followed the family to buy them. It has been 13 years..." Shen Shangzhi's voice trembled, paused After waiting for a while, I still couldn't help asking, "On my eldest grandson's left calf, there is a red birthmark that looks like an ingot the size of a fingernail..."

Shen Ge silently rolled up his trouser legs, turned his back to the old man.

Although the indoor oil lamp was dim, it was still possible to see that there was no birthmark on Shen Ge's calf.Thinking that the hope of finally finding his grandson was shattered, Shen Shang couldn't help crying, "Old man... old man... really... really..."

As an orphan, how could he not imagine that his relatives would come to find him and take him home.So at this moment, when he heard the old man's cry, Shen Ge, who was usually eloquent, had red eyes, but couldn't say a word.
