Yu Jiao wakes up one day to find herself transmigrated into the body of a poor rural girl, sold off in a marriage of luck to a sickly man.
Thinking she’s landed in a farming-romance novel, ...
At first, no one noticed that the old lady of the Chen family was absent. Since her health deteriorated, she seldom went out in recent years, so it was inevitable that she was ignored.
After Yu Qizhe’s reminder, everyone’s eyes fell on the Chen family.
Chen Gensheng broke out in a cold sweat and didn't know how to explain for a moment.
It was Xiao Chen Qin who cleverly lied, "My sister-in-law came to our house a few days ago and took the old lady to her home to live for a while. The old lady is not at home."
Chen Qinshi quickly agreed, "Yes, my mother was taken home by my third sister Hehua to stay for a while."
The Chen family also has a younger sister-in-law who did return to her parents' home to congratulate Chen Zhiqing on his success in the imperial examination some time ago. This is understandable.
Seeing that no one was suspicious anymore, Chen Gensheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and pretended to be very worried. "I don't know what's going on in Lotus Village. My mother's body can't stand this kind of torture."
After this incident, the Chen family became much more obedient and no longer dared to provoke the Yu family without any consideration.
Yu Jiao checked the pulse of many people in turn. Perhaps it was because they were well taken care of by the adults, the children did not get sick. Instead, the two middle-aged men who were clamoring for medicine and several elderly people did have fever.
Yu Jiao took out the remaining typhoid medicine from the medical box and said to the people with fever, "These are the only medicines left. Give them to the elderly first. Let your family members follow me to the mountain to collect herbs. You will have something to eat after we come back."
"Okay, Miss Meng, let's go with you to collect herbs." Not only did the families of the two middle-aged men with fever stand up, but even the descendants of those elderly people also took the initiative to follow them to collect herbs.
Yu Mengshan stood up and said, "Meng girl, what herbs are you picking? Should I go?"
He felt sorry for Yu Jiao who had been struggling in the water for so long. Although she was a doctor, she was just a little girl who had not yet reached marriage age.
"Uncle Mengshan, I'll go." Yu Jiao appreciated Yu Mengshan's kindness, but his legs were inconvenient to walk and the mountain was muddy. There was no way Yu Jiao could let him go outside to collect herbs.
"I'll go with Yu Jiao." Yu Fuling stood up and said.
Besides Yu Mengshan, only Yu Fuling knew some herbs in the family. Song nodded and said, "Then you should be careful."
She found the bamboo hats she had brought up the mountain and put them on Yu Jiao and Yu Fuling. She then said to the villagers who were going to follow Yu Jiao to collect herbs, "Please take good care of my two girls."
These people hurriedly agreed.
"I'll go with you." Yu Qizhe stood up and said.
Yu Jiao looked at him and shook her head. "You can rest in the cave. Sister Fuling and I are familiar with picking herbs in the mountains. It will be fine."
Yu Qizhe has not slept since last night, and his peach blossom eyes are full of red bloodshot, which Yu Jiao has noticed a long time ago.
"I'm not tired." Yu Qizhe held Yu Jiao's hand and walked out of the cave.
Yu Jiao had no choice but to swallow the words of persuasion she was about to say.
The rain was much lighter than before. Some people who were taking shelter under the rocks not far from the cave saw Yu Jiao and the others coming out and walking up the mountain, and they all shivered and went into the cave to take shelter.
After entering the cave, they heard that Yu Jiao was leading people up the mountain to collect herbs to treat the colds of those who had fever in the cave. These people regretted it so much. If they had not followed Chen Gensheng to Yu Laosan's house to make a big fuss, they could have also gone to the mountain to find some herbs to eat.
I wouldn't have to hide outside the cave all the time, sneezing all the time because of the rain, and my clothes are still wet.
Huang Gousheng moved closer to Yu Hanshan, and when he saw Yu Hanshan looking at him, he smiled at him ingratiatingly, "Third brother, I'm sorry about what happened before, it's all my fault, don't take it personally, if you really have to, just beat me up to vent your anger!"
The purple scars on Yu Hanshan's face have not yet faded. Not only has every experience taught you a lesson, but the flood has also made Yu Hanshan's mind much clearer.
Hypocritical friends are not as important as your closest relatives.
When someone really encounters such a life-threatening danger and is busy running for his life, no one will care about his life or death.
Only his blood relatives care about him.
Yu Hanshan laughed sarcastically, "Gousheng, you were the one who told everyone about Xiu'e and me, right?"
Huang Gousheng's face turned pale, and he stammered, "I...I let it slip when I was drunk, and someone heard it. Third brother, I didn't mean it."
Yu Hanshan patted his shoulder and said, "Come on, that's it. Don't say anything. What brother or not? I only have two older brothers. My mother didn't give me any other brothers. Don't call me that in the future."
Huang Gousheng's face turned pale, and he begged in a low voice, "Third brother, we have been brothers for so many years, and we grew up together and slept in the same bed. It turned out that I was blinded by greed and didn't expect you to recognize someone else's child. I apologize to you, third brother, please don't disown me as your brother."
Yu Hanshan had turned his head away and had no intention of paying any more attention to him.
Huang Gousheng had no choice but to leave in embarrassment.
Zhao said coldly, "Why? Are you thinking of the kindness of the old man again now? If you had thought of it earlier, would you have ended up like this? And you only have two older brothers. Yu Hanshan, don't you remember that you were kicked out of the Yu family?"
Yu Hanshan frowned and glanced at her. He was too lazy to argue with Zhao and simply said nothing.
But the more Zhao spoke, the more excited she became. She would never be able to get over the hatred in her heart.
Yu Zhou couldn't bear to listen any longer and said, "Third wife, please stop talking."
