A koi spirit transmigrated into a book, becoming the daughter of a condemned official. As soon as she was born, her grandmother wanted to give her to a man-eating hunter. She could only cry and com...
Xi Xi looked curiously in the direction the two uncles had left, and just then he saw Zhu Yanyan in the woods.
Seeing that she was about to run into the bandits, her uncle, and Zhu Yanyan, she suddenly became anxious.
[Oh no! The wicked time-traveling woman is about to run into the bandit uncle!]
Xixi waved her little hands happily, making cooing sounds.
Just then, Mrs. Sun was holding Xixi and frowned when she heard her chattering.
At this moment, Old Lady Zhu was applying ointment to Tao Shi, and her sister-in-law was also applying medicine to her two nephews.
No one noticed Linzi's situation. She anxiously turned back to look at Linzi, hesitated for a moment, and then came to Grandma Zhu's side.
"Mother, after all, Brother Niu saved Second Brother. Why don't we go and see him off?"
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Zhu paused, nodded solemnly, and said, "Yes, Third Brother's wife, you are right. Boss Niu has been kind to our Zhu family."
Thinking of this, she clapped her hands and put the food that Zhu Wen had just brought into the bamboo basket.
"Let's go, let's see Boss Niu off."
Sun wanted to bring her little niece into the woods, but looked at Liu nervously, "Sister-in-law, you still have to take care of Da Bao and Xiao Bao. Why don't I take Xi Xi into the woods instead? Is that alright?"
"Okay, thank you for your help! Da Bao and Xiao Bao have quite a few bruises on their bodies, and I happen to have time to treat them."
Liu also overheard the conversation between Old Madam Zhu and Madam Sun, and was worried about how she would settle the three children if her daughter brought them over.
As a result, her sister-in-law offered to take Xixi into the woods, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile.
With her sister-in-law's permission, Sun picked up the cloth her sister-in-law used and, with her mother-in-law's help, tied her little niece to her chest.
The two then quickly left the camp and headed into the woods.
When Xixi heard that she could go into the woods with her aunt, she happily stretched out her little chubby hand, wanting to touch her aunt's pretty little face.
[Medical book, Xixi wants to take out the medical book, her second aunt is very talented.]
A good book paired with a talented woman—perfect!
If my second aunt succeeds in her studies, then there will be more doctors in the team who can diagnose and prescribe medicine!
[Great news!]
Sun walked silently behind Old Lady Zhu, her brows furrowed with curiosity, growing increasingly puzzled as she listened.
How did Xixi have medical books? And how did she know that everyone would encounter a plague in the future?
Just as she was walking forward with a face full of questions, her little niece began to mutter with a look of disgust.
Is this person out of their mind? Do they think they can hide in the bushes and be invisible?
Sun looked around curiously and sure enough, she saw the corner of Zhu Yanyan's clothes hidden in the bushes.
She snorted coldly, picked up a pebble from the ground, and kicked it towards Zhu Yanyan.
After entering the woods, Zhu Yanyan heard footsteps behind her and hurriedly hid in the bushes.
She unexpectedly spotted Zhu Haotian and Zhu Chenfeng in the bushes, seemingly waiting anxiously for someone.
However, before the mysterious man could appear, she was suddenly hit by a stone, which made her scream in pain.
"ah......."
"Who's there?" Zhu Haotian, who was waiting for the bandits to arrive, turned around warily upon hearing the sound from the bushes.
Grandma Zhu also heard the familiar sound from the bushes, quickened her pace toward her son, and whispered a reminder.
"The voice in the bushes sounds like Zhu Yanyan."
Seeing this, Zhu Chenfeng quickly gestured to the bandits who were about to come out, signaling them to hide.
After the bandits had hidden themselves, Old Lady Zhu handed the bamboo basket on her back to Zhu Chenfeng, bent down to pick up the wooden stick on the ground, and carefully walked towards the bushes.
Zhu Yanyan was looking down at the spot where the stone had hit her when she suddenly looked up when she heard footsteps.
But it was too late; Old Mrs. Zhu had already raised the wooden stick and was about to smash it down on Zhu Yanyan.
Old Mrs. Zhu deliberately closed her eyes, and shouted as she hit her, "You vagrant, I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death!"
"Stop! Stop!" Zhu Yanyan cried out in pain, trying to dodge, but the grass was too narrow and she could only shout at Old Lady Zhu.
After tapping a few times, Grandma Zhu stopped what she was doing, pretended to be bewildered as she looked at Zhu Yanyan who was slowly standing up, and covered her mouth in surprise.
"Hey! It's you? Are you out of your mind? Why do you like stalking people so much?"
"Who's following you? Is this forest yours? Are you the only ones allowed in?"
Zhu Yanyan rubbed her aching arm and shouted angrily at Old Master Zhu.
Old Mrs. Zhu looked her over calmly and sneered a few times, "Is that so? Then what are you doing hiding here so suspiciously?"
"Could he be a pervert? Or does he have something wrong with his head?"
Zhu Yanyan was so angry that her face changed drastically. Her neck turned red and she couldn't say a word in rebuttal. She could only grit her teeth and turn away from the bushes.
Worried that Zhu Yanyan might turn back halfway, Old Mrs. Zhu turned back and told her son, "You stay here, I'll keep an eye on her."
"Mother, be careful, Zhu Yanyan is not easy to deal with." Zhu Haotian was worried that his mother would be bullied, so he stepped forward anxiously to remind her.
Old Mrs. Zhu knew what she was doing, waved her hand, and followed Zhu Yanyan out of the woods.
After the two left the woods, Zhu Chenfeng signaled the bandits to emerge from the bushes on the other side.
When Sun saw Zhu Haotian carrying a bamboo basket, she hurriedly stepped forward to remind him, "Second brother, Mother instructed us to give the food inside to these brothers."
"Okay, then I'll pack these foods together with the food in the bushes." At Sun's reminder, Zhu Haotian put the bamboo basket on the ground and turned to enter the bushes.
Zhu Chenfeng then took out two pieces of gold and handed them to the bandits, saying with a choked voice, "Heroes, thank you so much. Please keep this gold."
"Brothers, we waited for you all night, thinking you wouldn't show up, but we didn't expect you to keep your promise."
The second-year high school student accepted the gold from Zhu Chenfeng, his face showing fatigue and sadness, and his eyes reddened as he thanked him.
Zhu Chenfeng didn't know how to say nice things, so he could only help Zhu Haotian pack the food into the bandits' bamboo baskets with red eyes.
Seeing the bandits' desperate expressions, Sun took out a brush and a notebook from her bosom and tore a few pages from the notebook.
Then write down the names and uses of all the herbs, stuff the paper into the herbs, and point to the herbs while saying...
"These are some basic medicines that you will need in the future. We will eventually have someone draw them out, and then you can pick them in the mountains when you run out. You can use them for minor illnesses and pains in the future."
The second-year high school student stared at the words on the note in surprise, then nodded blankly, "Okay, thank you for your kindness, Madam. We will definitely make good use of it."
For the first time, Sun felt proud that he could save more people, thanks to the medical books he had read before, which enabled him to help everyone at this critical moment.
At this moment, she finally understood why her little niece had given her medical books; her current abilities were not yet sufficient to solve difficult and complicated diseases.
If I want to help more people and protect my family in the future, I still need to study more.
