Chapter 443 Lu Yin
Four days passed by unknowingly.
The canal was calm and the journey was smooth.
That evening, because we had rushed during the day, we were unable to reach the next port to spend the night, so we had to spend the night in an abandoned port with no village or shop nearby.
Although there is no village in front and no shop behind, the surrounding terrain is flat and you can see rows and rows of lush crops. It can be seen that this place should not be far from the village.
They had enough people on board and no shortage of food and drink, so they docked here for the night and arranged for people to take turns guarding the night, and they were not afraid.
Everyone had no objection. While it was still early, they got off the boat and took a walk on the shore to stretch their legs and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river.
Xu Zhichun also got off the boat with Muxiang and Chunfen, and wandered around aimlessly.
The spring plowing had just ended, the grass and leaves were green, and the wild flowers were dotted like stars. Muxiang and Chunkai were happily picking wild flowers, saying that they would take them back to the boat to put in vases for the lady and the second master.
Xu Zhichun watched the two people running among the grass and bushes with a smile.
"Madam! Madam!"
Muxiang suddenly rushed over and pointed behind a bush not far away: "There's a girl who fainted over there, she's unconscious!"
Xu Zhichun was shocked and quickly asked Muxiang to call Chunfen over, and the three of them went over together.
The girl looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was wearing a washed-out blue floral dress. Her eyes were closed, her face was pale and thin, and a strand of black hair was messily stuck to her face. She looked fragile and pitiful.
Mu Xiang squatted beside her and carefully reached under her nose to test it. She said to Xu Zhichun happily, "Madam, she is still breathing."
I don't know what she is happy about.
But Xu Zhichun was also very happy to hear it.
There is no village or shop nearby, and a young girl fainted here. It is obvious that something bad must have happened to her.
If they turn a blind eye, she might never wake up, or she might wake up and then have to face the cruel reality.
Xu Zhichun: "We still have to spend the night here, so let's bring the man back to the boat and wake him up first."
"Yes, ma'am."
When Muxiang saw the girl suffering like this, she couldn't help but think of herself, and her heart softened.
After Xu Zhichun gave the order, Muxiang and Chunfen helped the girl up and laid her on Chunfen's back. She supported him from behind, and they all got on the boat together.
The lady and her servants got off the boat for a walk and rescued a girl. Everyone was surprised, but no one paid much attention to it.
Nanny Qin Qing quickly mixed honey with warm water and forced the girl to drink it along with costus root.
The girl didn't react at first, but then she subconsciously swallowed in big gulps, drinking up most of the bowl of honey water.
"Girl, girl, wake up"
Nanny Qin Qing shook her gently and called out softly.
The girl finally slowly opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment with a confused look.
Nanny Qin Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a friendly smile: "The young lady has finally woken up, that's good, that's good"
This means that the problem is not serious and he should be fine. The previous fainting was probably caused by tiredness and hunger.
Otherwise, where can we find a doctor now?
Now that the person has been brought back, no one can bear to leave him alone.
The girl's face changed slightly, and she tried hard to sit up, but she was too weak and couldn't get up.
Nanny Qin Qing kindly lent her a hand and helped her sit up, and also put a pillow behind her back.
The girl couldn't help but look around with a wary look, "Where is this place?"
"Don't be afraid, young lady. We are on a boat. Our mistress is passing through here and will be staying here tonight. She went ashore for a walk earlier, and the maidservant who was following her found the young lady fainted in the grass. Our mistress was kind-hearted and rescued her and brought her aboard."
"Our mistress has gone to dinner now, and this old servant is here to look after the young lady. Are you hungry? I think you look very weak. How about some porridge first?"
The girl stared at Nanny Qin Qing in a daze, her eyes still alert, and she was skeptical about what she said, but when she heard about food, she couldn't help licking her lips.
It was obvious that she was really hungry.
Seeing her like this, Nanny Qin Qing did not feel offended, but instead felt pity for her: Poor thing, I don’t know what happened to her at such a young age to become like this.
Nanny Qin Qing smiled softly, "Young lady, even if you have other plans, you should fill your stomach first, right? Only when you are full can you have strength."
The girl was stunned, and her vigilant expression finally softened, and the invisible thorns all over her body gradually retracted.
Yes, no matter what, you have to eat enough to have strength.
"Thank you, grandma."
"Hey, you're welcome!"
Nanny Qin Qing hurried out and soon brought back a bowl of vegetable and minced meat porridge. The girl's eyes lit up at the aroma.
Nanny Qin Qing felt even more sorry for her and hurriedly fed her mouthful by mouthful.
After finishing most of the bowl, Nanny Qin Qing smiled and said, "There's more in the kitchen, but you're really hungry, so don't eat too much at once. You can use some later. Rest for now, my lady will be here after dinner."
The girl finally let down her guard and nodded to Aunt Qin Qing a little embarrassedly: "Thank you, Grandma. I'm sorry to trouble you. My name is Lu Yin, Grandma. You can just call me by my name or A Yin. Grandma, please go eat too. I don't want to bother you here anymore."
Nanny Qin Qing saw that she was dressed in rags and looked like a country girl, but she did not expect her to have such good manners. Moreover, after spending some time with her, Nanny Qin Qing looked at her coldly and secretly. The girl had clear and gentle eyes, and her words and actions inadvertently revealed information that she was definitely not a peasant girl. She was secretly surprised and thought that this girl must have some difficult life.
"Okay, Miss Lu, take a rest."
Nanny Qin Qing responded with a smile, turned around and went out to report to her own wife.
Xu Zhichun had just had dinner with Liang Mingxuan. After hearing what Qin Qing Ma said, he became curious, so he asked Qin Qing Ma to go have dinner and planned to take Muxiang and Chunfen to see the girl.
Nanny Qin Qing wanted to watch the fun and followed them without rushing to eat.
The lights in the house were already on.
Candlelight on the ship requires special care. The lamp base is taller than a person, fixed to the floor, and covered with a lampshade.
Through that layer of gauze, the lights appeared a little more hazy and softer.
Xu Zhichun and the others entered the room and approached. Nanny Qin Qing said with a smile, "Miss Lu, this is our wife."
Xu Zhichun smiled and nodded at the girl: "Miss Lu."
When Lu Yin suddenly saw Xu Zhichun, she couldn't help but change her expression, and her pupils suddenly widened as if she was extremely frightened.
"you--"
Both Xu Zhichun and his servant were shocked.
Muxiang even subconsciously stood in front of Xu Zhichun.
Lu Yin seemed unaware and froze, his eyes fixed on her.
