Xiao Gengwu smiled and replied, "If you want to have a voice, it's easy. I'll listen to everything you say from now on. That way, indirectly, won't everyone listen to you?"
Yao Tongjia snorted: "Can't I make others listen to me on my own?" Yao Tongjia came from the future, so she had a rough understanding of the history of this period.
Putting everything else aside, the spring breeze of reform and opening up alone was enough for her to take off; she didn't need to rely on a man.
"Yes, of course!" Xiao Gengwu nodded: "Come and study! Only if you study well will everything be easier in the future!"
Yao Tongjia knew this, of course. The two of them studied face to face. As a result, Xiao Gengwu spent most of his daytime hours being called away by the village chief and the others.
The rest of the time, he stayed in the courtyard to accompany Yao Tongjia in her studies. Besides studying, Yao Tongjia would watch medical techniques and make pills.
One day, Yao Tongjia tried to make a pill but found that one ingredient was missing. She searched everywhere, including her space and the yard, but couldn't find it.
Helpless, she packed her things and prepared to go into the mountains to gather herbs. When she walked into the kitchen, she smelled the chicken soup that had been cooked that day. The chicken had been sent by the brigade leader.
It is said that Xiao Gengwu went to the factory and helped them solve another problem. This was the factory's reward for knowing that they wouldn't kill chickens.
Aunt Xue, the village chief's wife, even plucked the feathers for them and chopped the chicken into pieces. If Yao Tongjia hadn't refused, Aunt Xue would probably have stewed it for them.
I remembered that scumbag father of mine lived in the mountains. To avoid suspicion, he probably ate mostly dry rations. Since I was going into the mountains anyway, I brought him some soup.
Having an official as a father means having someone to back you up in the future; it's a good deal. Yao Tongjia convinced herself of this and heated up the rest of the chicken soup.
He put the contents of the rice into an earthenware pot and placed it in his basket. Seeing that there was still rice left, he scooped out a large bowl of rice and put it all into the basket. Just as he was about to leave, Xiao Gengwu returned.
When Xiao Gengwu saw Yao Tongjia carrying a basket on her back, he quickly took it from her: "I'll carry it. It's already late afternoon. Why don't you eat before going into the mountains? Why are you carrying it in?"
Yao Tongjia couldn't hide it from Xiao Gengwu: "Ruan Shengpeng is living in a cave. I think he's probably eating dry rations. We're making chicken soup today, and I'm going up the mountain to gather herbs, so I'll take some to him!"
"Alright, he is your father after all, we can't let him starve to death, let's go together!"
The two of them went into the mountains together. Yao Tongjia was quite familiar with the mountains, and after several twists and turns, they arrived at the cave from last time. Before they could even go in, Xiao Gengwu grabbed her.
"Look at the ground, there's blood. You take the chicken soup, I'll go in and check first."
Yao Tongjia shook her head: "I'll go in. He doesn't know you. I don't want to get beaten to death!"
Don't underestimate the vigilance of these people who have been trained for many years. Even when they are asleep, they are very alert and can easily kill an ordinary person.
Xiao Gengwu was also worried about Yao Tongjia going in: "What if there are other people inside?"
Yao Tongjia stuffed the things into Xiao Gengwu's arms: "I'll go in, I have a place to hide!"
But Xiao Gengwu held her hand: "Why don't we leave the things outside and go in together? I absolutely won't let you go in alone!"
Letting her face the danger alone while he hides outside is absolutely unacceptable!
The two struggled outside for a while, and finally Yao Tongjia gave in: "We'll put the things outside, but you have to hold my hand!"
In case of any unforeseen events, she can pull everyone into the space together.
Xiao Gengwu was naturally very happy to take Yao Tongjia's hand, and the two of them walked into the cave hand in hand. There was no light inside the cave.
As soon as the two entered the cave, it was pitch black. It took them several seconds to adjust before they saw that the haystack was empty. Xiao Gengwu noticed that there was no blood in the cave.
Yao Tongjia took two steps forward: "Could it be that the cave doesn't have...?" Before she could finish speaking, a dark figure rushed out and grabbed Xiao Gengwu.
Then a knife was placed against Xiao Gengwu's neck. The speed was so fast that Yao Tongjia couldn't react at all. Indeed, imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel!
Just as Yao Tongjia was about to step forward to snatch Xiao Gengwu, she looked closely and realized that the dirty-faced person in front of her looked like her scumbag father.
Yao Tongjia was somewhat uncertain: "I am Yao Tongjia, don't you recognize me? Let him go!"
At this moment, Ruan Shengpeng's body had reached its limit. As soon as he saw the person he had been silently thinking about for a long time, he immediately let go and was about to fall to the side!
Xiao Gengwu hurriedly tried to help the person up, but the unconscious person was very heavy, and Xiao Gengwu was almost overturned by him. Yao Tongjia also stepped forward to help, and together they put the person on the haystack.
Yao Tongjia felt that Ruan Shengpeng's skin was a little hot. She touched his forehead and found that it was hot enough to boil an egg. His willpower was really strong. Even like this, he could still get up and hurt people!
Fever and blood, could it be an injury? Yao Tongjia quickly found the cause; she guessed that the bleeding, which had stopped, had started flowing again after she had struggled to get up.
Yao Tongjia turned the person over. Without even pulling the clothes off, she saw a fifty-meter-long wound. It looked like a piece of pork had been cut off in one go.
Was it cut by a butcher's knife? Yao Tongjia thought to herself, these people are too ruthless. They don't dare to shoot, so they resort to all sorts of assassinations!
Ruan Shengpeng must have used a hemostatic agent, but because it was on his back, he couldn't see it. Some wounds had healed, while others were still bleeding.
Yao Tongjia sighed, took out the hemostatic agent, and reapplied the medicine. Xiao Gengwu had already started cleaning up the bloodstains. He was now extremely sensitive to bloodstains, afraid that someone would come looking for him because of them.
After applying the medicine to Ruan Shengpeng, Yao Tongjia and Xiao Gengwu looked at each other in bewilderment. They had originally thought that giving some food to their scumbag father was already a favor because he was their father.
But looking at the temperature on his forehead, I'm afraid this scumbag dad is going to become an idiot dad. What should I do?
Xiao Gengwu stood up: "How about I go out and take a look? There shouldn't be anyone around at this time. Shall we take the person home?"
Judging from Ruan Shengpeng's condition, someone is definitely hunting him down. If he stays here, he'll either be burned senseless or silenced sooner or later.
Neither of these is what they want!
As the saying goes, having one more person who cares is better than having one more enemy! Besides, given his identity, he deserves their help.
At this moment, Ruan Shengpeng had completely fallen into a coma. Xiao Gengwu wanted to help him up, but he could only lift the upper body.
Yao Tongjia went over and lifted him up, but because she was not tall enough, Ruan Shengpeng swayed on one side when he stood up.
Xiao Gengwu was tall enough to support Ruan Shengpeng, and the two of them carried the injured man back home!
