Jiangshan Ji

Chapter 5

Not wanting to entangle with this person any longer, I hugged Qin and walked into the house.Seeing that I didn't intend to invite him into the house at all, he didn't have the nerve to follow.

After returning to the house, he looked out the window casually, but he still stayed where he was, looking at me with a smile on his face.

how?With this look, are you sure I'll let him in?

I did not follow his wishes.

At this time, the sun was shining, I felt a little tired, and I was about to lie down and rest for a while, but I tossed and turned for a long time, and I couldn't fall asleep.

He got up a little annoyed, and caught a glimpse of the medicine basket in the corner out of the corner of his eye.

Tomorrow is the day when Jishitang will donate medicines to the local villagers for consultation. Master told me early on that there are a few common medicinal herbs that need to be distributed in large quantities. I need to prepare in advance to avoid the shortage of supply.

I have nothing to do today, and my interest in playing the piano to relieve my depression was also disturbed by that annoying guy. Why don't I go up to the mountain to collect herbs, just to relax and kill time.

He carried the medicine basket and went out, but the man was still standing in the courtyard.

Seeing me coming out, he was a little embarrassed, came up to meet me, and asked, "Are you going out?"

I didn't want to pay attention to him in my heart, but I blurted out: "Going up the mountain to collect medicine, why, is there something hindering you?"

"Of course it won't hinder me. It's just that the weather is hot. I'm worried that your daughter's family will be overwhelmed and suffer from heat stroke."

Hearing that he looked down on me like this, I was a little unhappy: "What about women? Didn't you listen to the opera singing, 'Who says women are inferior to men'? Besides, I gather herbs to give to people who have no money to see a doctor. Even if the sun is scorching hot, it is worth a walk."

He nodded and said with a smile: "Young lady's kind heart is admirable."

As I walked out of the courtyard, I sighed: "Nowadays, wars are raging, and the people are struggling to survive. Some savings at home have been confiscated by the government in the name of recruiting war supplies. Therefore, many people have no money even if they are seriously ill. Come to see a doctor. Master specially opened Jishitang, hoping to do something for these poor people. Speaking of it, Master, an old man, is a truly kind-hearted person."

Wen Chang followed, seeming to agree with my point of view, nodded and said: "Such a kind hearted person, you can be called Hua Tuo in the present age."

This is indeed the case with Master, not only with superb medical skills, but also with a benevolent heart, worthy of the title of "Hua Tuo in the present age".It's just that he has always been humble, if he hears others praise him like this, he must say that he deserves it.

Just thinking like this, I heard Wen Chang say again: "You are also kind-hearted, you can be called the little Hua Tuo of the world."

I chuckled, "Are you always so glib, trying to please girls?"

Embarrassed, he lowered his head, and after a long time, he raised his head and said in a low voice, "Of course not, it's just Miss Huaijin, you...you..."

The word "you" was repeated several times in the mouth, but there was no further text.

His appearance at this moment is completely different from the handsome and high-spirited young man that night, adding some simplicity of a Lanling country boy, which does not quite match the nobility on him.

I couldn't help but suddenly remembered something and asked, "How do you know my name?"

In my impression, I didn't declare my family name, did I?

I don't know if it was because the sun was too strong, his face was flushed from the sun, avoiding my eyes, he hesitated and replied: "I heard your uncle call you that way that day, so I will remember it."

Oh, I see.

Walking all the way to the mountains, I stopped talking to him. He asked me about the customs and customs of the Lanling countryside from time to time.

After walking for a while, he saw that I was carrying a medicine basket on my shoulder, and it was extremely difficult to go up the mountain. He suddenly stepped forward, unloaded the medicine basket from my shoulder, and put it on his shoulder.

The movement was so fast, for a moment, I didn't realize it, and when I regained my senses, the medicine basket was already on his shoulder.It would seem a little hypocritical to refuse at this time.

A lot of medicinal materials were collected along the way, and the medicines were packed full, and they were carried on the shoulders, so the weight was not light.

He raised his eyes to look at the people around him, there were already fine beads of sweat on his forehead, but his expression was quite relaxed, as if he was not struggling at all.

There was a tree shade a few steps away. I strode over and sat down. I saw him still standing stupidly under the scorching sun. I couldn’t help being a little amused. I took out a handkerchief from my sleeve, waved it twice, and asked him, "Let the sun shine stupidly." Is it? Here you are, to wipe off your sweat."

After speaking, hand the handkerchief to him.

He looked a little flattered, hurried over to pick it up, put down the pills, and sat down beside me.

After wiping the fine beads of sweat from his forehead, he stared at the handkerchief silently like an idiot.

I pretended not to see it, and closed my eyes, wanting to rest for a while.

Here, the ancient trees cover the sky, there is a slight wind movement around, and the fragrance of flowers is blowing in front of you, it is really good to sleep.

When I closed my eyes, I didn't know how long I had slept.

When he woke up, he found himself leaning on Wen Chang's shoulder.

I was taken aback, stood up hastily, and straightened my dress, "I...you...we...what's going on?"

I can speak well on weekdays, but now I am clumsy and I don't know what I am talking about.

But he understood and explained to me: "You fell asleep and your neck was so stiff that you leaned on my shoulder for a while."

He was still sitting under the tree, did not get up, but just smiled unintentionally, as if the spring breeze was blowing on his face, which made people slightly intoxicated.Compared with his calm appearance, I was so flustered, it seemed that I had done something unscrupulous.

I was embarrassed, but I still pretended to look at him calmly and said "Oh".

He probably didn't hear it, but his eyes were still on the handkerchief I wiped his sweat just now, he looked at it for a long time, pointed to an embroidery pattern on it, and asked, "You embroidered this?"

I nodded and saw that his brows were tightly frowned, guessing that he didn't know what was embroidered on it, so I explained: "This is called Chuanqiong. When the flowers bloom, the fragrance is very strong. It can be made into medicinal materials to relieve depression and pain. It is a delicious food." traditional Chinese medicine."

He looked down at the little Chuanqiong embroidered on the square handkerchief, with a look of sudden realization.

Fu raised his head again, "It's really rare that you know so much at such a young age."

I was a little disapproving, and sat next to him again, "Why, Mr. Wen has heard too many rotten words like 'a woman without talent is virtue', and when I see a woman like me who understands a little bit of human affairs, I think Is it rare?"

He probably heard the sarcasm in my words, he opened his mouth blankly, and wanted to refute something, but he didn't think it was appropriate, after thinking about it, he said: "That's not what I meant, girls read more books, Of course it's a good thing."

After finishing speaking, as if he was afraid that I would get angry, he didn't say another word, just held the handkerchief in his hand and twisted it over and over again.One side's well-embroidered handkerchief was messed up by him.

Seeing me staring at him without blinking, he hurriedly handed back the handkerchief to me.

Immediately, I thought he was really cute and silly, and said a little funny: "Dirty ones, I don't want them."

It was a joke, but he took it seriously, "After I wash it, I will return it as it is."

After finishing speaking, he put it away carefully and put it back in his sleeve.That way, too solemn, really like a fool.

On weekdays, when I went to the mountains to collect herbs, I would always be with my master and senior brothers, and with them as their companions, talking and laughing all the way, I didn't feel that the time was hard.Today, this guy came here uninvited, and he can't joke so much, it's really boring.I sighed heavily, feeling very depressed.

The medicine baskets on the left and right are already full, and almost all the medicinal materials to be used tomorrow are collected, and it is time to go down the mountain.If you wait until the sun goes down, the way down the mountain will be hard to find.

Seeing me get up, Wen Chang picked up the medicine basket and asked, "Going down the mountain?"

I nodded, "If you don't go down the mountain, it will be dark."

The two walked down the mountain together.

This time, he talked to me again, asking some questions related to medicinal materials, I answered them one by one, and I was no longer as impatient as when I went up the mountain.

Just as he was explaining the difference between aconite and Baiying, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his calf.I screamed in my heart that it was not good, and I already yelled "Oops" in my mouth.

He was startled by my sound, and hurriedly stopped: "What's wrong?"

I showed a wry smile, "It seems to be bitten by a snake."

Being bitten by a snake in the wilderness, the situation can vary from mild to severe.If it was a snake without fangs, it would be fine.If it is poisonous, then life is in danger.

I was just talking to him and didn't pay attention to what kind of snake bit me, so I couldn't tell whether the wound was poisonous or not.

At this time, the surrounding sky had dimmed, and it was difficult to examine the wound carefully. For a while, it was impossible to judge whether the situation was serious.

When I said that, Wen Chang's face changed immediately, he looked quite flustered, as if he was more nervous than me, "Sit down first, let me see the wound."

"You are not a doctor, can you still look at my wound?"

He made fun of him like this in his mouth, but his body was extremely obedient, and he sat down obediently as he said.

He was not afraid of me now, he gave me an annoyed look, took off my shoes and socks to inspect the wound, and said: "What time is it, and you are still joking like this!"

I patted him on the shoulder, and I said nonchalantly: "I'm dying, can't you say something pleasant to make me feel happier before I die?"

He suddenly exerted force on his hand, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing that I was in pain, he hurriedly let go, and looked at me again with deep eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

After a while, as if making up his mind, he said, "I won't let you die."

Everyone has a life and a destiny, and what has been predestined by God, can human beings control it?This man is so naive.

With a glance, I saw the jade pendant on my waist, and what my uncle said to me that day came back to my eyes.

Such a precious thing may be of great use in the future.

I took off the jade pendant, put it in my palm, and said to Wen Chang: "This jade pendant is a treasure handed down from generation to generation in my family. After I die, I will trouble you to deliver it to my uncle in person. Don't throw it in this wasteland." Country Ridge, let the wild dogs take it away."
