Chapter 372: Deserted Temple Sheltering from the Rain
It rains a lot in spring and summer, and the weather changes rapidly. One moment the sky is filled with morning glow, and the next moment there is a strong wind.

Shi Liu and his group, who had just come out of Zhang County not long ago, saw that the weather had changed and heavy rain could fall at any time, so they had to find a place to shelter from the rain quickly.

Zuo Cheng, who had gone ahead on horseback to explore the way, soon came back to report that there was a dilapidated temple not far away, and immediately a group of people hurried towards the dilapidated temple.

Fortunately, as soon as I stepped into the dilapidated temple, the rain outside started pouring down.

"It looks like the rain is going to continue for a while, girl, sit down and have a good rest." Fu Dong quickly found a slightly cleaner corner, tidied it up, brought some straw, spread a piece of cloth taken from the car, and patted the floor for Shi Liu to sit on.

Shi Liu nodded and sat down, asking everyone else to sit down and take a rest as well.

Soon, some pedestrians who were in a hurry ran into the dilapidated temple, obviously to avoid the rain.

Soon, people came one after another and the small, dilapidated temple was filled with people.

There were different kinds of people hiding from the rain. There were farmers carrying food to the city, a young doctor carrying a medicine box, and a group of traveling merchants.

Among them, there was a farmer carrying a round winnowing basket on his shoulder, which was filled with mulberry leaves, and carefully covered with bright red cherries.

Looking at the cherries, Pomegranate suddenly realized that it was the cherry season again. The cherries come quickly and must be eaten quickly when they are ripe, because they will not last long. There are not many cherries grown in Luoshui County. To be honest, she hasn't had a good time eating cherries for a long time.

Seeing that the cherries were all very beautiful and obviously ripe, Pomegranate was delighted and immediately asked, "Uncle, how much are these cherries for?"

The uncle was approached and saw that the pomegranates were surrounded by so many people. He knew at first glance that she was not an ordinary girl. He couldn't help but get a little nervous. "Twenty cents a pound. They were just picked from the trees early in the morning. They are very fresh! Miss, buy some?"

Twenty cents per pound is more expensive than meat. But in Dajin, there are many people planting cherry trees, especially in Jinzhou, but not everyone is willing to eat them. After all, it is something that cannot be put down once it is picked.

It was rare for Pomegranate to find such fresh cherries, and she didn't think twenty cents a pound was expensive. Seeing that there were only about ten pounds of cherries piled in the two winnowing baskets, she just took all of them.

The uncle was very excited when he took the change handed over by Fudong. He could sell all the cherries without going into the city and go home. How could he not be excited?

Assuming that there was still some change left, and he had no copper coins to make up for it, he simply gave away the winnowing basket as well.

Pomegranate saw that the cherries were very clean, so he picked up two and put them in his mouth. Wow, they were so sweet.

"It's delicious." She asked Fu Dong, Wu Cheng and the others to eat too. There were so many that she couldn't finish them all by herself, and they couldn't be kept for long.

Along the way, everyone knew that the girl was generous and not fussy, and treated her own people very well, so they didn't hesitate to come over and grab a handful of cherries to enjoy. As for the cherries, no one had ever eaten them before.

There were many people hiding from the rain in the dilapidated temple. They were eating cherries with relish. The adults could bear it and just didn't look, but the children couldn't help it.

Shi Liu felt as if a pair of eager gazes were cast on her. She couldn't help but look over and saw the boy in his mother's arms not far away staring at her eagerly.

No one knew how old the boy was. His hair was dry and yellow, and his face was sallow. It was obvious that he was sick.

After a pause, Shi Liu used empty mulberry leaves to wrap some cherries and asked Fu Dong to give them to the boy.

The boy's parents were flattered and thanked them repeatedly. They held the cherries and carefully fed them to the boy.

Shi Liu saw the boy eat a cherry and his dimples appeared, so she couldn't help but smile. But just as she turned her gaze away and ate two cherries, she heard a shrill cry, "A Bao? A Bao! Don't scare your mother, what's wrong with you?"

But the boy vomited all over his mother's hands, and his face turned a frightening yellow and white.

Shi Liu was also shocked. Was it poisoned? They were fine after eating it?

At this time, the young doctor stepped forward and said, "I'm a doctor. Let me take a look at him."

When the woman heard this, she seemed to have seen a savior and hurriedly said, "Doctor, please save my child!"

The rain outside gradually subsided, and those who were busy on their way could not wait for the rain to stop completely, so they left the dilapidated temple and prepared to continue on their journey.

When the rain stopped completely, most of the people in the dilapidated temple had left, leaving only Shi Liu and his group, the family of three, and the young doctor.

The young doctor took out the needle and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "It's okay. This child's spleen and stomach are too weak. Don't let him eat such raw and cold food next time."

The couple breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed to the doctor, begging him to prescribe some medicine. Their child was born prematurely and had been sick from birth. They had seen countless doctors and taken countless medicines, but the child just couldn't be raised.

They had this child when they were middle-aged, so naturally they treasured him. As long as their son could be cured, it didn't matter how many doctors he saw. Just now, they saw that this young doctor was good at acupuncture, so they thought that the prescription he wrote might also be good.

The young doctor had no choice but to take out a pen and paper from his medicine box and wrote out a prescription.

After getting the prescription, the couple saw that it was different from the medicines prescribed by doctors in the past. They felt as if they had seen some hope and were extremely happy.

Turning around, she found that everyone in the dilapidated temple had left, leaving only that line. The woman smiled at Shi Liu and said, "Thank you for the cherries, young lady. My son A Bao is weak and can't eat them. It has nothing to do with you, young lady."

Shi Liu was relieved to see that the boy was fine. This woman was reasonable. If it were an unreasonable one, she would definitely make a fuss no matter if it was her fault or not. It was his fault for vomiting after eating cherries.

There are many people like this in later generations. Shi Liu thought that she was still a little soft-hearted. She couldn't help it when she saw the boy's sick look with hungry eyes. She must not do it again next time. If she meets an unreasonable person, she will have nowhere to complain.

The rain stopped and the sun soon came out again. We regrouped and continued on our journey.

The official road was wet after the rain and it was not as easy to walk on as before, so the pace slowed down.

Shi Liu hung up the car curtain and enjoyed the scenery outside.

Fu Dong leaned over the car window and looked around, as if he had discovered something. "Girl, the doctor just now was walking in the same direction as us!"

Hearing this, Shi Liu stuck his head out and looked back, and sure enough, he saw the young doctor walking not far behind them, carrying a medicine box on his back.

The carriage slowed down and was not much faster than walking.

The sun gradually rose higher and the air became warmer. After walking another ten miles or so, the official road became dry.

It was almost noon, and Zuo Cheng, who had gone ahead to explore the way, had not found any town yet. This meant that they would have to eat dry food at noon.

Pomegranate was thinking about the remaining cherries and saw a small forest not far to the left with a river at the other end of the forest. He immediately decided to stop and rest in the forest.
