Chapter 14 Wei Jing
Seeing that the two were about to leave, Lin Qian suddenly said, "Wait, Aunt Zhang, if you don't mind, we have a shabby house for you to stay in."
Wei Jing turned around first and looked at Lin Qian with sparkling eyes.
Zhang Yufang also looked back at Lin Wu, and Lin Wu finally realized what was happening and nodded: "Yes, but that house is a bit shabby, I guess it needs to be repaired, otherwise it can't be lived in."
"Okay, it doesn't matter. As long as I can live here, that's fine."
Lin Qian saved her son. Zhang Yufang has a good impression of Lin Qian's family and it would be nice if they could live together.
Lin Wu said, "That's great. If that's the case, then you can go back with us."
Zhang Yufang sighed and laughed.
Zhang Yufang looks like she is about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, but in fact she is only twenty-nine this year, two years older than Lin Wu and Zhao Xiucai, and yet she has been tortured into this state.
However, looking at the way Zhang Yufang smiled, Lin Qian could vaguely tell that she was also a pretty beauty.
The ox cart was carrying Zhang Yufang and Wei Jing, mother and son, so Lin Qian and the others could no longer go shopping and had to go back first.
Along the way, Lin Qian and Lin Shuo were talking to Wei Jing, but Wei Jing seemed very introverted. He just listened quietly, smiled from time to time, and didn't say much.
Pingchuan Town is not far from Linjia Village. It only takes about an hour to walk back to Linjia Village.
"Sister Zhang, it's getting late today. Why don't you stay at my house for one night? This house is too shabby. I guess it needs to be cleaned up before you can live in it." Lin Wu suggested.
Zhang Yufang looked at her son, and when Wei Jing nodded, she agreed.
"Dad, wife, we are back." Lin Wu shouted as soon as he entered the door.
Lin Changcan was sitting in the yard weaving a basket with bamboo strips. Hearing this, he looked up and said with a smile, "You're back? Who are these two?"
At this time, Zhao Xiu also walked out of the kitchen. Seeing Zhang Yufang and her son, she was also stunned: "Huh? Aren't these the mother and son from Renhetang?"
Lin Wu nodded and quickly told what had happened, then looked at Lin Changcan somewhat embarrassedly.
After all, he was brought back without his consent.
Lin Changcan clapped his hands and said, "It doesn't matter. There's still an empty house at home. You can stay there."
Zhang Yufang quickly thanked him: "Uncle Lin, thank you so much."
"You're welcome. You're welcome."
"Sister Zhang, Xiao Jing, please sit down and I'll go cook." Zhao Xiu said to Zhang Yufang and Wei Jing.
Zhang Yufang immediately rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen to help. Zhao Xiu tried to persuade her but she refused to listen, so she had no choice but to let her in.
Seeing Zhang Yufang's straightforward personality, Lin Qian had an even better impression of her and her son.
Lin Qian took out the rice dumpling candy that Lin Changcan had given her earlier and handed it to Wei Jing. Wei Jing was stunned and shook his head to refuse.
"It's really delicious, try it." Lin Qian forced one into his mouth, and he put the rice dumpling candy into his mouth embarrassedly.
"Thank you very much."
Wei Jing's voice was clear and pleasant, but a little hoarse, probably because of the voice changing period. Coupled with his pair of clear and gentle eyes, Lin Qian felt that if he didn't have those sores on his face, he would definitely be a gentle and handsome guy.
Wei Jing noticed that Lin Qian was looking at him, and his ears turned red involuntarily.
Lin Qian chuckled. Wei Jing was too shy. Hearing Lin Qian's laughter, Wei Jing's ears turned even redder.
Lunch was ready quickly and everyone sat around the table and started eating.
Zhao Xiu suddenly asked, "Sister Zhang, you must have seen it when you came here. Our dilapidated house is no longer habitable."
Zhang Yufang smiled and said, "What a coincidence, the day after I met you, I ran into the young lady I used to serve at the gate of Renhe Hall.
She had given birth to four daughters in a row, and this time she was pregnant again, and the doctor said it was a boy. She was so happy that she gave me a few taels of silver, saying that it was to help me and asked me to return it to her after my son became successful.
So I can still come up with the money to repair the house."
"That's good. Then I'll let Da Wu take you to buy bricks and tiles. We'll come to help after they're bought." Zhao Xiu said.
Lin Changcan said: "I know a place that sells these things. The price is cheap. I will take you there after dinner.
"Okay. Thank you Uncle Lin and the Wu brothers and sisters!" Zhang Yufang thanked them again.
After lunch, Lin Changcan took Lin Wu and Zhang Yufang there.
Lin Qian helped clean up the dishes, then said to Wei Jing and Lin Shuo, "The weather is nice, let's go into the mountains and see if we can still pick some mushrooms."
Lin Shuo agreed, and Wei Jing had no objection. The three of them each carried a basket and went to the mountain.
Qixing Mountain is located in the northeast of Zhaojia Village. The three of them traveled together and met many children along the way. They were also going up the mountain in groups of three or four, carrying baskets on their backs.
When they saw Wei Jing's face, the girls were immediately frightened, screamed, and hurried away.
Lin Qian and Lin Shuo frowned and covered Wei Jing subtly, but Wei Jing was taller than them, so they were left alone.
But looking at Wei Jing, he had a calm face and did not look away. It was obvious that he was already accustomed to this scene.
However, seeing Lin Qian and Lin Shuo standing in front of him, Wei Jing still curled the corners of his lips.
Lin Qian and Lin Shuo took Wei Jing up the mountain and did not go the same way as the children. After walking for a while, Lin Qian and Lin Shuo were still walking briskly, but Wei Jing could not.
He was originally a weak scholar, and had just recovered from an illness, so he was weak and exhausted after walking for only a short while.
Helplessly, Lin Qian and Lin Shuo had to stop and rest.
"I'm sorry, I've dragged you down." Wei Jing said apologetically.
Lin Qian waved her hand without saying anything, but Lin Shuo patted Wei Jing on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, but you are indeed very weak. It's time to practice. How about getting up early tomorrow morning and teaching you martial arts?"
Wei Jing was a little surprised: "You actually know martial arts?"
Lin Qian explained, "My father knows how to do it. He learned some martial arts from a master outside and then taught it to us."
Wei Jing smiled and said, "I see. Okay, I'll trouble Shuo Shuo from now on."
Lin Shuo smiled: "No trouble, no trouble."
Wei Jing had taken some body-strengthening pills. Although he was a little too old to practice martial arts now, as long as he could persist, he should have no problem protecting himself.
After resting for a while, the three of them continued to climb the mountain.
When they reached about halfway up the mountain, Wei Jing and Lin Shuo went to pick mushrooms, while Lin Qian lowered her head to look for herbs.
After half an hour, Lin Shuo and Wei Jing had picked half a basket of mushrooms. In Lin Qian's basket, there were only three black roots that had just been dug out of the mud.
"Sister, what are you doing? You've spent half a day and you only found a few things? What the hell are these?" Lin Shuo and Wei Jing came over and asked.
Seeing that Wei Jing's face and body were covered in sweat, Lin Qian immediately took out the kettle filled with cold spring water and handed it to Wei Jing, saying, "Have some water."
Then she gave Lin Shuo a pot of water, and then Lin Qian said, "This is rhubarb, which has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, and is anti-inflammatory. I want to see if I can use these things to cure Brother Wei Jing's face."
