peasant girl wedding

Chapter 266 Conditions

The warm sun is warm, and the golden sunlight penetrates through the gaps in the interlaced leaves, casting mottled starbursts on the ground.

Shuanzi looked up at Tong Zhier standing against the light, the glare of the sun made him unable to see the expression on Tong Zhier's face clearly, but Shuanzi could clearly see the smile on the corner of his lips.

This smile is malicious.

"What do you want to do?"

Shuan Zi stared at his red eyes and asked angrily.

Tong Zhi'er looked at him, and couldn't help but raised her hand to touch his head.

However, Shuanzi would not give her this chance.As soon as Tong Zhi'er stretched out her hand, Shuan Zi waved her arm open.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything harmful to your village." Tong Zhi'er smiled indifferently, and continued, "I'm just curious about what kind of place the blood cave is? Why does everyone talk about blood? Besides, Tong Zhier looked at Shuanzi, "With you looking at me, are you still afraid that I will do something bad?"

Shuanzi snorted, "Don't think I'm small, but I also learned kung fu from Uncle Wu."

After all, Shuanzi raised his fist deliberately.

Tong Zhi'er smiled, "That's right, if I do something wrong, you can just teach me a lesson, what are you afraid of? How about it?"

Shuanzi lowered his head and thought for a while, then said in a deep voice, "Okay, it's a deal. You are not allowed to tell my mother about this, and you have to help me cover it up."

"You want to take me to the blood cave!" Tong Zhi'er stretched out his hand.

Shuanzi looked at her, and followed her example and reached out his hand.

Tong Zhi'er bumped into it immediately, and Shuanzi was startled by the crackling sound.

"One word from a gentleman, one quick whip, we have already high-fived it as an oath, you are not allowed to go back on your word!"

"Hmph! I'm not so despicable!"

Shuanzi snorted coldly, turned his head and ran away angrily.

.........

"Aunt Li, how are you feeling today?"

Tong Zhi'er pushed open the courtyard door of Shuanzi's house, entered the house, and said to Aunt Li who was lying on the bed, seeing her struggling to get up, Tong Zhi'er quickly stopped her.

"Aunt Li, you are still a little weak, you have to lie down and recuperate for a while, it's better not to move around, I'll do it myself."

"Well, that branch is up to you."

Aunt Li smiled apologetically.

Seeing the worry in her eyes, Tong Zhi'er said, "Aunt Li, are you still worried about Shuanzi?"

Aunt Li's expression changed suddenly.

"He was a good boy when he was young, but he became more and more disobedient when he grew up. He is getting older, and I am too, so I can't control him..."

"Aunt Li..." Tong Zhi'er took Aunt Li's hand and said softly, "Aunt Li, besides visiting you today, I have a good news to tell you."

Aunt Li smiled wryly, but said nothing.

She is sick now, and Shuanzi is disobedient, so where is the good news?

Even if there is good news, it will not make her happier than Shuanzi not being naughty anymore.

"Aunt Li, Shuanzi said that he wants to learn simple pharmacology from me."

Aunt Li, who has no energy, immediately put all her attention on Tong Zhi'er when she heard this.

"Zhi'er, what did you say..."

"Aunt Li, let me tell you that Shuanzi knew he was wrong. He wants to learn some pharmacology knowledge from me and take good care of you in the future."

"Really?"

Tong Zhier nodded heavily.

"...Okay, okay, he still has filial piety at last," Aunt Li's voice choked up, "Shuanzi, Shuanzi..."

Shuanzi stood outside the door, but his ears were always paying attention to the movement inside the house.Hearing Aunt Li calling him, he immediately rushed into the house.

These days, my mother has been angry with him, not talking to him, not eating what she made.

Shuanzi was anxious and nervous.

He knew that Mother was annoyed by what happened to him before, as long as he let go of that thought and vowed never to go to the bloody cave again, Mother would definitely fight him like this to the end.

However, he can't make Shuanzi tell a lie.

Fortunately, he reached an agreement with Tong Zhier.

With Tong Zhi'er's help, the mother can also relax her heart, stop being angry with him, and make trouble with her own body in order to punish him.

"mother………"

Shuanzi entered the house, looked at Aunt Li who was lying on the bed with blurred eyes and stretched out her hand to him, and immediately rushed over, but was careful not to bump into her.

"Shuanzi, it's your blessing that Zhi'er is willing to teach you. You can learn from her well in the future, and don't mess with those who have something or nothing, you know?"

Shuanzi lowered his head and didn't speak.

"... Shuanzi, why don't you speak?"

Aunt Li frowned, feeling extremely anxious.

Seeing that Aunt Li was going to get angry again, Tong Zhi'er immediately said: "Aunt Li, Shuanzi has already promised me with me before, Aunt Li, I feel embarrassed when a boy grows up, and I am embarrassed to say some things, I know Shuanzi meaning is enough."

"Thank you Zhi'er," Aunt Li looked at her gratefully, and then looked at Shuanzi who lowered his head.

"Mother, I cooked porridge in the kitchen, and I'll bring it here."

"Hey, good."

After Shuanzi went out from the house, Tong Zhi'er helped Aunt Li tuck the corner of the quilt, and said, "Aunt Li, Shuanzi followed me to learn pharmacology, and I will take him to look for herbs in the village in the future. Aunt Li, you won't see him all day."

Aunt Li shook her head and said with a smile, "It's okay, Shuanzi will follow you, I don't worry."

…………

When Aunt Li got better, Shuanzi followed Tong Zhier to the village to look for herbs.

He originally thought that what Tong Zhier said in front of his mother's bed was just a whim, but who would have thought that Tong Zhier would actually practice it.

When other villagers saw this, they immediately expressed that they would let their children learn pharmacology from Tong Zhier, but Tong Zhier refused on the grounds that she was pregnant and did not have so much energy.

In this regard, the villagers quietly found Shuanzi.

"Shuanzi, follow Zhi'er's example, we will be sick in the future, but we will all depend on you."

"Shuanzi, after you have learned it, you can also teach my children. One more person can also help."

"........."

Everyone, you say what I say.

Shuanzi agreed to everything, and the villagers left satisfied after listening.

For several days, Shuanzi followed Tong Zhier to look for herbs everywhere in the village, such as isatis root, honeysuckle, Tianqi, plantain, Prunella... Shuanzi carefully examined the medicine that was brought to the village by the third brother of the Wang family. woman.At the first moment, she was still a rumor in other people's mouths, with white skin and red teeth, and bright eyes; at the next moment, she woke up the mother who was helpless.Later, she followed him to the blood cave at night, and in exchange, she reached an agreement with him.But now, she seems to have forgotten the existence of this agreement, and wholeheartedly teaches him to recognize the herbal medicine.

Shuanzi looked at Tong Zhi'er with a hint of gratitude.

However, if Shuanzi knew Tong Zhi'er's true thoughts at the moment, he would definitely take back the three points of gratitude without hesitation.

Using the search for herbs as a cover, the villagers will get used to them running around in different places during the day, so no one will be surprised even if they go to the blood cave without anyone noticing.Tong Zhi'er grabbed a handful of honeysuckle and said with satisfaction.

The knowledge of pharmacology she knows is still learned from her brother-in-law Dong Ping.

For a while, Tong Duo'er made some things for Dong Ping from time to time, such as purses, clothes, shoes, etc., and asked Tong Zhi'er to send them over.

After Tong Zhi'er passed by, she didn't leave immediately. If Dong Ping dried herbs, she would definitely stay and help.

It was during this time of helping that Dong Ping talked about various medicinal herbs.

Tong Zhi'er's memory is very good, and there are real objects as examples, Tong Zhi'er memorized them all without much effort.

The growth form, main medicinal properties, functions and indications, and adverse reactions that cannot be mixed with certain herbs can be left to Shuanzi at this moment, which can be said to be more than enough.

"... Shuanzi, take me to the blood cave tomorrow morning."

Tong Zhi'er suddenly said this, telling Shuanzi to stop picking honeysuckle, he glanced at Tong Zhi'er's still flat stomach, and said, "Your current situation makes it inconvenient to go to the Blood Cave."

Tong Zhi'er looked at him in surprise, then smiled, "It's okay, take me to have a look."

"Hmph, whatever you want!"

Shuanzi pulled the basket, turned his head and strode forward.

Tong Zhi'er stared blankly at the back of him walking away, and really couldn't understand why this child suddenly became angry!

Thinking to no avail, Tong Zhi'er simply gave up, put the honeysuckle on the back basket, and walked to the yard of Sister Wang's house with the back basket on her back.

The next morning, when Tong Zhi'er got up from the bed, Shuan Zi was already waiting in the yard.

After breakfast, I informed Sister Wang, and Tong Zhi'er and Shuanzi each carried a basket on their backs, and walked towards the forest where herbs grew in the village. Many people greeted them along the way.Tong Zhi'er smiled and greeted everyone one by one. The closer they got to the forest, the fewer people around them. Taking advantage of other people's inattention, they quickly changed direction and went to the blood cave on the other side.

Still the way that night.

During the day, illuminate everything brightly.

Tong Zhi'er looked at the side of the blood cave with sparse emerald colors, which was in stark contrast with the green grass on the far opposite side, and was very surprised.

What the hell is in this bloody cave, so that no grass grows nearby?
After a long time, Shuanzi stopped, "Here it is."

Tong Zhi'er nodded, looking at the cave in front of her, her eyes suddenly widened.

"This is, a gold mine?"

Wiping off a gold mine the size of a pearl with his index finger, Tong Zhi'er said in surprise.

"That's right, this is a gold mine. The imperial court is crazy about it, regardless of the life and death of our people!"

Shuanzi's cold voice reached Tong Zhi'er's ears!
Tong Zhi'er couldn't help shivering.

Not only because of Shuanzi's cold tone, but also because of what he said.

Did the gold mine kill the common people?She remembered that the daughter-in-law of her cousin Tong Zhaoyin, Zhou Yunniang and her father, Mr. Zhou's family, made their fortunes from the gold mines of their ancestors, and later the Zhou family prospered.

If there is a gold mine somewhere, there will never be such an act of hatred that everyone shuns and gnashes their teeth, and the imperial court will confiscate it if they know it.

But all of this, she has never heard a single word!

　Two updates tomorrow.
