Chapter 356: Lively Morning
The dim oil lamp casts a shadow of tranquility in the room.
"Chen'er, take your medicine."
Gu Xiu Niang entered the room carrying a bowl of medicine and looked at the skinny child lying on the bed.
"Mom, please don't waste the herbs. My illness is incurable." Lin Wangchen said weakly, "Taking medicine is just a way to get by."
"Nonsense!" Gu Xiu Niang gently scolded, "Do you know that this medicine contains hundreds of years old wild ginseng? If you take good care of your body, you will definitely get better."
"Hundreds of years old ginseng?" Lin Wangchen was stunned. "How can there be such a rare thing?"
A smile appeared on Gu Xiuniang's face.
"Madam brought it out," said Gu Xiuniang. "Madam brought out a piece of top-quality wild ginseng and cut it up to use as a medicine for you. With time, your illness will surely be cured."
After hearing what Gu Xiu Niang said, Lin Wangchen's thin little face showed a hint of complexity that was inconsistent with his age.
"Mom, the Su family is just an ordinary farmer. How could they keep such a precious thing?" Lin Wangchen said, "And they just took it out so casually and gave it to a stranger?"
"The lady and the young lady are both kind-hearted people. You've seen it. I'm afraid they have the help of the entire village."
As the ancient embroiderer spoke, she recalled the lively scene when she entered the village.
"Chen'er, the people here are very simple and honest, and the village has a good atmosphere. It would be great if we could live here from now on."
Gu Xiu Niang paused when she said this.
He added, "However, Chen'er, you must remember the kindness of Madam and Miss, and never forget it in the future."
"Mother, don't worry. Regardless of whether my illness can be cured or not, I will never forget the kindness of Madam and Miss, and I will definitely repay them!"
Although Lin Wangchen's voice was weak, the expression on his little face was unusually firm.
After hearing this, Gu Xiu Niang felt relieved.
"Good boy, drink the medicine quickly, or it will get cold later."
After saying that, he helped his son sit down and brought the bowl to his mouth.
Seeing his son finish the medicine obediently, he couldn't help but smile.
She now has a son and has met a good master, and feels that her life has hope.

Early the next morning, the Su family was bustling as usual.
Tang Bao's younger brothers and sisters were full of energy and came to the Su family early to report for duty.
The parents of my younger brothers and sisters were also very enthusiastic and came to the Su family one after another.
Some came carrying firewood, some came carrying pig feed, and some came carrying wild fruits that had just been picked and were still covered with dew.
"Hahaha...Brother Su, use these firewood first, I will deliver more in two days." Goudan's father said with a big laugh.
"Sister Su, these pig grasses are very tender and pigs love them the most." Liu Zhi Niang said happily.
"Oh, Fuya, come here quickly. These are the mulberries that auntie just picked. They are so sweet! The bad boys at home wanted to eat them, so I slapped them twice. These are reserved for you." The village chief's wife said with a mouth sweeter than the mulberries.
"Da Hu's wife, you sisters-in-law are all pregnant. From now on, I'll ask your uncle Gangzi and the others to help with the cleaning of the pig and sheep pens at home..."
"Erhu's wife, from now on, let your sister-in-law Chunxing and the others help with the chores of feeding the chickens and pigs..."
"Sanhu's wife..."
…
Then, the Su family's backyard became lively.
A group of chickens "cluck, cluck" and a group of ducks "quack, quack".
There were also two big black pigs grunting from time to time.
Occasionally, four kids would lie on the ground and bark "Woof woof woof" at Dabai persistently.
"Si Wa, get up! Stay away from Da Bai!" Qian Yuemei screamed, "Be careful or it'll bite you to death!"
Ever since she knew that Dabai was a bear cub, Qian Yuemei was terrified and would take a detour whenever she saw Dabai.
However, no matter how she scolded him, Siwa still chased Dabai all day long.
He is extremely persistent in teaching Dabai to bark like a dog.
Qian Yuemei's shout attracted the attention of a group of people who were helping to feed the chickens and pigs and clean the pigpen and sheeppen in the backyard.
"Mom, Dabai doesn't bite."
Siwa stuttered as he tried to whitewash Dabai.
"Why doesn't it bite? Whose dog... dogs don't bite?"
Qian Yuemei stuttered and swallowed the word "bear" in "dog bear" in time.
My father-in-law said that we should just raise it as a puppy.
After all, this was brought back by my sister-in-law.
"Isn't this a dog?"
"It doesn't look like a dog to me..."
"This is definitely not a dog..."
People gathered around and talked about Dabai, who looked very aloof.
As time goes by, Dabai's appearance is becoming more and more beyond the scope of a dog.
Dabai, "Ahhh woof woof..."
Everyone: “…”
Siwa said happily, "Dabai barked... Auntie said, 'Big White Dog...' Auntie picked it up."
"Did Fuya pick this up? Fuya said it was a dog?" asked Goudan's father.
"Uh-huh!"
The fourth child nodded vigorously.
"Snap!"
Goudan’s father slapped his thigh!
"That's the dog!"
Others, "...Yes! This is the dog!"
It has to be a dog!
Qian Yuemei, “…”
Yes! This is a dog! This is a dog...
Qian Yuemei repeated this series of words in her mind many times.
I’m afraid that I might accidentally tell the truth in the future.
She could imagine that everyone in the village would lie with their eyes open from now on!
Goudan's father looked at Dabai's dark bear-like face and expressed his opinions with saliva flying.
"I was wondering why this puppy is so strong. It turns out that our Fu Ya picked him up!"
"That's right, look at these paws, how fat they are."
Chuncao's father immediately agreed.
"That's right, those little puppies from other families are just too ugly to look at. Our big white one is still fatter and stronger..."
Liuzhi's father sighed as he spoke.
"That's right, don't you see who picked up our Dabai?"
Sanzhu's father was very proud and honored.
"Yes, yes, and the name is so fitting. The fur is all black and shiny..."
“Cough cough cough…”
"Oh, the one with all black hair can't be called Dahei, right..."
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
The corners of his mouth twitched.
I really want to remind this uncle who is struggling with the name "Dabai" and trying his best to excuse it -
There is a small tuft of white hair on Dabai's tail, but Dabai sits the tail under his butt.
Lin Wangchen held on to the wall and moved step by step to the backyard, watching curiously what was happening in the Su family's backyard.
A pair of dark eyes slowly began to bloom with sparkling light.
"Chen'er, why did you come out?" Gu Xiu Niang came over and said worriedly, "Mom will help you go back."
My son's health has just started to improve, so he must be taken good care of.
Lin Wangchen didn't want to make his mother worry, so he nodded.
However, after turning around, he looked back at the Su family's backyard reluctantly.
Such a strange and lively scene, such a simple and happy day.
For him, it was a completely different experience.
Make it new and exciting for him.
At the same time, it also made him yearn for it.
