Chapter 71: Is Zhu Erlang All Right? (Part 1)

When Zhu Zhaodi heard it, she was so stunned that she couldn't recover.

"Are we really going? Where are we going?" Zhu Zhaodi asked softly.

From childhood to adulthood, the farthest place they went was their grandma's house, and they hadn't been there for several years.

"Take one step at a time. I went to sell herbal medicine today. There is always some money. I can buy a few steamed buns to last for two days. In these two days, we can definitely find a place to settle down!" Zhu Xiaoxiao said, eyes The light is far-reaching.

Go, not the main thing.

She wanted to scare Zhu Erlang and test him.

The three of them disappeared, what would he do?
Should we search everywhere, or let them fend for themselves?

She didn't know what the world was like outside, so she really didn't dare to take Zhu Zhaodi and Zhu Hua'er away from home.

Its daybreak……

Zhu Erlang sat on the stone behind the house all night, his buttocks hurt from the cold, he stood up slowly, and walked towards the house.

Shouted at the door, "Zhaodi, Xiaoxiao, you're getting better, wash up and then we'll go to town. Hurry up, or you won't be able to get on the ox cart!"

After Zhu Erlang finished speaking, he went to fetch water to wash his face.

When returning to the house, seeing Mrs. Zhao sleeping on the kang, she pursed her lips and didn't ask her to get up and go to town together.

For rural women, it is very rare to be able to go to the town.

Mrs. Zhao is also pretending to be asleep.

She wanted to go to the town, but she didn't dare to go, because she was afraid that Zhu Erlang would ask her for the money. She was reluctant to give the money to the doctor for the three children, so she had to save it.

As for whether they can live past twenty, she doesn't believe Dr. Zhang's words.

I don't believe it at all.

The father and daughter packed up, but Zhu Hua'er still couldn't move, so Zhu Erlang carried her on his back.

Zhu Xiao and Zhu Zhaodi are carrying a sling, which is full of medicinal herbs.

At the entrance of the village, waiting for the ox cart...

Xun Muyang got up at dawn and got used to the food cooked by Zhu Xiao. Today, he was not used to the little girl not going up the mountain.

In addition, I had something to deal with, so I went down the mountain.

On the road, I ran into two brothers Zhu Fugui and Zhu Mantang.

"Ayang, are you going down the mountain?"

"Ok!"

Zhu Fugui didn't care about Xun Muyang's indifference, and asked with a smile, "Are you going to town?"

"Ok!"

"Going to take a carriage at home and go to town?" Zhu Fugui asked again.

"Ok!"

Xun Muyang still nodded slightly.

Zhu Fugui was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "Then you go, if Lan Zhen knows that you will go home, she must be very happy, and the three children are also talking about you!"

"En!" Xun Muyang responded, and strode away.

Zhu Fugui looked at Xun Muyang's retreating back and laughed.

"Mantang, let's go!"

"Ok!"

When Xun Muyang went to Zhu Fugui's house, Lan Zhen was overjoyed to see him, "Ayang, why are you here?"

"Come here to set up a carriage and go to town!" Xun Muyang said in a deep voice.

Three children ran up, "Uncle!"

Xun Muyang hugged Jiayi, and then patted Jiazhong and Jiacheng's heads.

"Be good, uncle will bring you sweets when he comes back!"

"Yeah, listen to uncle!"

Lan Zhen stood aside and watched with a smile, the corners of her eyes and brows were tender.

"Ayang, are you staying at home that night?"

"After dinner, go up the mountain!"

Lan Zhen narrowed her eyes with a smile when she heard the words, "Okay, then I'll prepare some more dishes, and I'll make you two clothes. You can try the size when you come back, so I can change it!"

"Ok!"

Xun Muyang went to hitch the carriage.

This is a real carriage, which is usually only used when Xun Muyang goes alone. It is usually a wooden cart. Zhu Fugui uses it to store things, and when he meets villagers, he will also take it for a ride. He never charges money.

Xun Muyang drove the carriage towards Feihe Town, Lan Zhen looked at the door for a long time, then turned around with a smile and went to clean up Xun Muyang's house, scrubbing the inside and outside, making sure that it was not stained with dust.

Hearing the laughter of the three children in the outer room, Lan Zhen went to the door and looked at them, feeling a little dazed.

If, if...

But she didn't dare to think deeply about that kind of if!

When Xun Muyang drove over in a carriage, Zhu Erlang was carrying Zhu Huaer on his back, while Zhu Xiao and Zhu Zhaodi supported each other and were waiting for the ox cart, and the carrying sling full of medicinal herbs was placed on the ground.

"Call..."

Xun Muyang stopped the carriage and asked Zhu Xiaodao, "Are you going to town?"

"Uncle Ayang is going to town too?"

"Well! Come on, I'll take you along!" Xun Muyang said softly.

"Thank you, Uncle Ayang!"

Zhu Xiao is not hypocritical.

It's a very hot day, and it's going to rain.

If Zhu Hua'er's body were to be drenched by rain, she might die.

He and Zhu Zhaodi helped Zhu Hua'er into the carriage, and then sat in together, and put the back straps at the door of the carriage.

The interior of the carriage is extremely simple, but in such a small mountain village, let alone a carriage, even a cow is a very respectable thing.

Zhu Erlang sat by the driver's seat and wanted to talk to Xun Muyang several times, but seeing Xun Muyang driving the carriage seriously, he swallowed the words back.

The carriage pedaled forward, each of the five people had their own thoughts.

Zhu Zhaodi was very nervous, she didn't know where Zhu Xiao was going to take her and Hua'er, and she also wanted to leave this miserable home.

But I'm afraid that I won't be able to leave at that time, or I will meet a kidnapper.

My heart has been uneasy.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the town, and several people got out of the carriage. Xun Muyang looked at Zhu Xiao, "When you go back, wait here, and I will take you back along the way!"

Then he drove the carriage away.

It doesn't matter whether Zhu Xiao and the others should or not.

Zhu Xiao looked at Feihe Town, it wasn't that big, but there were quite a lot of people passing by. There was a place at the gate of the town that sold food, tea, steamed buns, steamed buns, noodles, and wontons.

They didn't eat in the morning, and now they smelled the aroma, and their stomachs growled.

"Let's go, let's go and eat a bowl of wontons!" Zhu Erlang said softly, carrying a backpack in one hand, very relaxed.

Zhu Xiao and Zhu Zhaodi supported Zhu Hua'er and walked slowly, found an empty table and sat down.

"What would you like to eat?" the aunt who sells food asked with a smile.

Zhu Erlang looked at the three daughters, touched the money bag, "Give us three bowls of wontons, six meat buns, another bowl of plain noodles, and two steamed buns!"

"okay!"

The aunt responded and went to prepare immediately.

Six steaming steamed buns and two steamed buns were served, and Zhu Erlang pushed them in front of the three daughters, "Hurry up, the steamed buns taste the best!"

But he took the steamed buns and ate them.

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if the steamed bun was an extremely delicious delicacy, and he ate it seriously.

The three sisters looked at each other in blank dismay, and each reached out to eat the buns.

When the chaotic noodles came, Zhu Erlang let the three sisters eat wontons, while he ate plain noodles.

It is said that it is plain noodles, it is really plain noodles, there is only a little bit of oil, a little bit of green onion, and nothing else.

Zhu Erlang couldn't help eating, and he still didn't forget to tell the three sisters, "Eat quickly, let's go to the doctor's office!"

"Um……"

Zhu Xiao gently dragged out the ending sound.

My mind is a little wandering.

Zhu Zhaodi and Zhu Hua'er also looked at Zhu Xiao and asked her, do you want to go?

In fact, dad is pretty good to them too!

At least he knows how to feed them well and eat poor food himself, which is much, much better than the mother who never cares about their life or death.

"..."

Zhu Xiao was silent.
