Chapter 3380 Extra Strong Sister 34
Li Han and the others tried to hold back their laughter. Just as they were quiet, a chuckle was heard from not far away, and everyone turned their heads to look.
Wang Yun looked at them with a blushing face. Seeing them looking at her, she bowed and asked with a smile, "Are you all scholars?"
Bai Jingxing was a girl, so she answered for him, smiling and nodding, "Yes, we are students who are traveling to study."
In fact, she was also very interested in their group. The people in the temple, the vendors and ordinary people could all be seen at a glance, but their group was the only one that had donkeys and ox carts, as well as tall horses and carriages. The three people in the lead, a middle-aged man and a young girl, were dressed in silk and satin, while the other more respected old man was dressed in coarse cloth.
It was just a chance acquaintance, so they didn't want to disturb her rashly, otherwise she would have asked her long ago.
Now that she had taken the initiative to speak, Bai Jingxing was very happy to talk to her, "We are going to Xinning County, what about you?"
Wang Yun breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her kindness, and forced a smile as she said, "We are here to visit relatives, and we are also going to Xinning County."
The two of them walked together naturally, and Bai Jingxing took the initiative to introduce himself, "My surname is Bai, and I'm the eldest in my family. How about you, young lady?"
"My last name is Wang, and I'm the third child in my family." Wang Yun glanced quietly in Yang Zezhi's direction. "If Aunt Bai doesn't mind, I can call you sister?"
Bai Jingxing said generously: "I am sixteen years old this year and just celebrated my birthday."
"Then I'm older than you," Wang Yun said with a smile, "I'm seventeen this year, which is Dongyue's birthday."
"Are you traveling with your brother to study?" Wang Yun asked curiously. "A woman traveling to study... is a bit strange."
Bai Jingxing smiled and pointed at Bai Ruoyu, saying, "That's my cousin. He's not wrong. I did follow my brother on this study tour. Studying abroad is mainly about learning and gaining knowledge. I don't think it's necessary to distinguish between men and women."
After Bai Jingxing answered, he immediately asked, "Is that old man also from your family? I see that everyone in your family respects him very much."
"That's Mr. Wei. My uncle says he's a very wise man and should be treated with courtesy."
"Ah, so that's your uncle. I thought he was your father," Bai Jingxing asked curiously, "What about the donkey and ox cart outside?"
Wang Yun said embarrassedly, "That was Mr. Wei and his servant. He said he didn't like horses, they were too fast and bumpy, and he preferred riding donkeys. That's why we traveled slowly all the way. It took us five days to travel a distance that should have taken two days."
Bai Jingxing looked at the donkey in the dilapidated stable and was very tempted. "I've ridden horses and cows, but never a donkey."
Wang Yun: …
An old man sitting not far away, who was equally sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, said: ...
It took Wang Yun a long time to find her voice. "You, you've ridden a cow before?"
"Yes, I ride it often. Every year when I go to the farm to plant rice and harvest wheat and rice, my uncles and others like to put me on the back of an ox and pull me along." Bai Jingxing said very pertinently: "Riding an ox is more comfortable than riding a horse."
Wang Yun, "You still have to work in the fields?"
Bai Jingxing, "It's only during the busy farming season that the school has a field holiday. My parents are busy, and sometimes they can't take care of us during the field holiday, so they send us back to my grandparents' house, and my uncle and his family take us to the fields."
The two were talking excitedly when they heard crying from a corner of the temple. They stopped talking and turned to look. Before they could see who was crying, a figure quickly pounced towards Bai Jingxing.
Yang Zezhi, who was standing not far away, changed his expression. He quickly stepped forward and pulled Bai Jingxing behind him. The figure who rushed forward flopped and knelt in front of the place where Bai Jingxing had just stood.
Yang Zezhi retracted his legs and staggered slightly, still holding Bai Jingxing tightly in his hands.
Bai Jingxing was not frightened by the person rushing over, but was startled by Yang Zezhi's pull, "Brother Yang..."
Yang Zezhi turned around and looked at her, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Bai Jingxing poked his head out from behind him and looked at the kneeling young woman, "It seems she's the one in trouble."
Yang Zezhi also looked at that person.
Wang Yun was also frightened, her hands were shaking a little. The middle-aged man finally caught up with her and pulled her back two steps. He frowned and looked at the kneeling young woman, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
The young woman ignored him and looked at Yang Zezhi and Bai Jingxing behind him, kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Madam, please save me."
She pointed to a family of three in the corner and said, "Madam, my daughter is sick. Yesterday I saw you taking the pulses and prescribing medicine for several gentlemen. You seemed to be a doctor. I beg you to save my daughter. It's still raining outside, and we really can't get to the county town."
Bai Jingxing hurriedly stepped out from behind Yang Zezhi, "Are you sick? What's wrong?"
She hurried to see, but Yang Zezhi was still holding her wrist. She took two steps and was pulled back before she reacted and looked back at him.
Yang Zezhi stepped forward, still holding her wrist tightly, "Let's go and take a look together."
This is a family of four, a pair of parents-in-law with their daughter-in-law and granddaughter, who are said to be going to the city to join their son.
Because it was raining, I took shelter in the City God Temple yesterday.
Bai Jingxing reached out and touched the child's forehead and asked, "What's her name?"
"Call me Daya."
Bai Jingxing paused and called her, "Daya, how old are you this year?"
The young woman quickly answered, "Five years old."
Bai Jingxing nodded slightly and smiled at her: "Let the child answer, I want to hear her speak."
She waved her hand in front of her, then took her hand to feel her pulse, looking into her eyes and asked, "Daya, can you hear me?"
Daya nodded and replied softly, "I heard it."
Bai Jingxing breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing her dazed look just now, he thought she was burnt. It was really too hot.
"Where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you have a headache? Does your throat hurt..."
Some of the questions were answered by her, and some were answered by her mother. Bai Jingxing quickly diagnosed it and said, "It's a cold."
The people gathered around and dispersed a little. The cold can be contagious.
Bai Jingxing touched the child's clothes and frowned slightly. "Her clothes are a little damp. Do you have any clean clothes? Change them for her by the fire and cool her down first."
"I have clothes." The young woman hurriedly took out a set of clothes, which were a bit thin.
After taking a look, Yang Zezhi asked Dongfang to take out the cloak that he had just put away this morning and wrap it around the child. The child needed to be warm at this time and could not catch a cold.
"Use a warm handkerchief to cool her down. I'll give her acupuncture later." Bai Jingxing stood up. "I'll boil some medicine for her first."
When Bai Ruoyu heard that she was going to give someone an acupuncture, she quickly followed her and whispered, "Are you really going to give her an acupuncture? Can you do it? You usually give us acupuncture, so it's fine. We have thick skin anyway, but she's just a little girl, only five years old..."
Bai Jingxing took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry. I've been given the fever-reducing injection many times before, and I've watched her give you injections many times. My mother and I have also had them done at Jishiditang. There's definitely no problem."
"But have you ever pricked a child this young?"
"No."
Bai Ruoyu advised: "Why not just use the medicine and put acupuncture aside for now? You don't know how painful it is when you get acupuncture. It's nothing like your aunt. When she gives acupuncture, sometimes we can't even feel it..."
Good night
