please lie down

Chapter 2

"Sister, sister, I can't sleep anymore."

The window was dimly lit, and in a daze, Chu Jiu felt someone shaking her. Although she was puzzled, she didn't forget that she lived alone, so she turned over again, intending to continue sleeping, but her hands were persistent She got entangled again, which made her a little impatient, she opened her eyes and wanted to stare at the person who disturbed the dream, but after touching the eleven in front of her, the anger that had just risen disappeared completely.

Because he had just woken up, Chu Jiu's mind was still a little confused, he looked at the child eagerly, and asked with a dry voice: "What's wrong?"

"Sister, today is the day to go to Orion Village to collect hair medicine." Eleven's small face was pale and thin, and only his eyes were blinking and a little angry.

"Hair medicine?" What is that?A kind of medicine?
"Yeah." Eleven nodded first, then shook his head, and explained: "Daddy said, every half a month, our family has to visit the hunters and the others to collect the hair medicine they picked up the mountain, otherwise the hunters It will mess up the hair medicine, and it will not be able to sell at a good price."

"Yes... am I going to collect it?" Chu Jiu asked a little uncertainly. She had just arrived in this place and hadn't gotten used to it. There are still various unknowns, so it's not surprising that she would be nervous about hosting.

"It's us, when daddy is not at home, mother takes the three of us to collect hair medicine, and every time I have to go to the town to find Mr. Mao, and go with Mr. Mao, Mr. Mao is in the fur business , let's do hair medicine business, neither side will delay." Eleven's voice was as weak as a kitten's, but it sounded soft and pleasant.

When I heard Mao Baye mentioned on the eleventh day of the ninth day of the ninth day, some impressions floated in my mind, what is the hair medicine?Chu Jiu frowned and thought about it, and a lot of freshly picked or simply processed medicinal materials immediately appeared in his mind. Only then did he realize that the so-called hair medicine was herbal medicine.

She knew too little about the things in this world, Chu Jiu sighed in her heart, several times she wanted to tell them that she was not the original Chu Jiu, but she held back.

She once heard someone mention that a young lady died of illness and suddenly woke up just before the burial, which should be a happy thing, but after that young lady woke up, she kept saying that she was not that young lady, but a certain In Yuanwai's house, the concubine who was wronged by the court for stealing and beaten to death.

The result can be imagined, the family of the young lady naturally gagged her and buried her alive.

"Sister, what are you thinking?" Eleven carefully looked at Chu Jiu who was in a daze, and felt that this sister was a little strange.

Chu Jiu coughed dryly, then patted his forehead. "Look at my memory, what time is it?"

Then he asked some seemingly irrelevant things, Chu Jiu planned to get up and get off the bed.

"What time is it, are you still lying on the bed?"

The door was pushed open suddenly, Chu Jiu looked over in surprise, and saw Wan Niang standing there with her hands on her hips, she spoke quickly, so she paused after she finished speaking, obviously thinking of the Chu Jiu Fang Jing of life and death, The tone is still the same, but the voice is lighter.

"Get up quickly, I have to get back all those soups and medicines today, lest your father keep nagging endlessly."

After Wanniang finished speaking, she tossed her sleeves and left. Chu Jiu didn't delay any longer, and hurriedly got up to wash up. For the sudden extra family members, Chu Jiu was still somewhat uncomfortable.

When Chu Jiu went to eat, Huzi was already at the table, grabbing a corn cob and gnawing on it. Wanniang brought a small pot to the pot and divided it into several bowls.

Chujiu was puzzled for a moment, and then memories from the past flashed through his mind. It turned out that this Cang Yuhe was not only a good doctor, but also a good person. There is almost no income for seeing a doctor, plus the subsidy, naturally there is not much spare money in the family, Wanniang persuaded and made a fuss, and finally in order to reduce expenses, she had to dismiss the servants, leaving only her dowry maid.

Later, the dowry maid was also married off, and Wanniang could only do everything by herself.

The memory fragment stopped here, and Chu Jiu sighed in his heart, always feeling that things were not as simple as Chu Jiu knew.

Wan Niang kept urging her at the table, saying she wanted to go earlier, Chu Jiu thought about it, and then proposed to go by herself, because she thought about it for a long time, and felt that if she went together, the carriage would hardly be able to hold much medicinal materials and come back. According to the words of Shishi just now, the place to go is not too close. If you collect too much, I am afraid that you will have to go back and forth twice. She left the child at home, so she wanted to go by herself, and asked Wanniang to bring the two little ones at home.

Wanniang refused at first, but Chujiu thought about it, and proposed to rent a larger carriage. Wanniang hesitated, and after looking at Chujiu, she agreed to buy medicinal materials by herself, and told her She came back earlier and packed some baked sweet potatoes for her to eat on the way.

Chujiu went to harness the carriage, and then tried to shake the horsewhip. It seemed that it was not as difficult as imagined, so she put down the horsewhip and asked Wanniang for a dust-covering hat. unnecessary trouble.

Wanniang sent her outside the door, which attracted the attention of the neighbors.

"Hey! Isn't this Wanniang, she's not going to enjoy the blessings of life, so why did she come to our corner?"

The one who spoke was a woman whose eyebrows were almost raised to the forehead, holding a wooden bucket, when she looked up and saw Chu Jiu wearing a dust-covering hat, her face froze, and she murmured: "Didn't you say you were dead? "

Wanniang's ears were sharp, and when she heard what the woman said, she immediately yelled: "Damn, you're just dead, the whole family is suffering from chicken plague, no matter how dare you talk nonsense, I can't see you tearing your mouth apart!" .”

After scolding, she turned her head to look at Chu Jiu again, and reprimanded again: "What's wrong with you today, why do you let this woman talk nonsense, how do I usually teach you?"

usually?Chu Jiu was stunned for a moment, and some pictures flashed in his mind immediately. The former Chu Jiu seemed to be a pungent one, so he slightly nodded at Wan Niang, expressing that he remembered.

But knowing that this should be the case, many years of education is here, so Chu Jiu opened his mouth for a long time, but still didn't say anything, which made Wanniang somewhat dissatisfied, but seeing her at a loss, she felt that She had just been frightened, so she was a little abnormal, so she didn't blame much, and turned to scold the woman who jumped after being scolded.

"Why are you arguing? It's so early in the morning, it's still letting people live." The final sound was very long, and the door of the courtyard on the right opened, and a rich woman came out with a basin to splash water. "Tsk" and said: "I said baby aunt, how did you come out in the ninth day of the ninth day?"

Although he asked what's the matter, he knew clearly from the tone of his voice. Obviously, he had heard enough thieves behind the door, so he opened the door and came out with the excuse of splashing water.

Chu Jiu frowned again when he heard that, feeling a little bad, three women in one drama, these three don't have a fuel-efficient lamp, I don't know how long they will be arguing.

Eleven and Huzi were hiding behind the door, looking out through the crack of the door, and saw that the two were arguing and turned into three arguing, so Eleven flashed out from the door and said to Chu Jiu: "Sister, You go first."

Chu Jiu hesitated for a moment. It's not that she has never seen people quarrel before, but those so-called quarrels are more often debate-like disputes rather than scolding like this.

"Aunt Hu always quarrels with her mother, and Aunt Fat never lets people say that she is fat, but mother always calls her a pig, and she always pours dirty water on our door." Eleven explained, Then he stuffed a small oiled paper bag into Chu Jiu's hand.

Chu Jiu opened the oiled paper bag, and the smell spread. She sniffed it and found out that it contained pear jelly candies cut into different sizes, so she looked at Eleven suspiciously.

"Huzi and I left this for my sister. My sister won't feel any pain after eating candy." Eleven said, reaching out and pressing the oiled paper bag on Chu Jiu's hand, so that the oiled paper wrapped tightly Some.

After finishing all this, she looked back at Wanniang, then turned her head and said to Chu Jiu in a low voice: "Sister, come back early, it's dark and the road is not easy to walk, come back late, mother is going to curse again .”

It's the tone of a little adult.

"You too, go back to the room early and don't stay outside." Chu Jiu nodded without further delay. He waved his whip, and the old horse kicked its hooves and moved forward without her waving again. Whip, he knew he was turning, presumably because he often went to those hunters to collect medicinal materials, and he already knew the way.
