Chapter 10: pity

Views:

Lin Sheng felt a little sad when he heard his sleep talk. When He Ling's father left, he was only six years old, about the same age as their tiger son.

Hu Zi is now naughty. At that time, He Ling should be living carefully under the watchful eyes of his grandmother and uncle's family who didn't like to see him very much.

Wu Yulan didn't think so much. She stared at the intertwined hands, her expression getting weirder and weirder.

There were footsteps at the door, Qi Yue gently pulled out his hand and stood up beside the bed.

While He Ling was empty in his hand, a tear rolled from the corner of his eye, fell on the pillow, and fainted. The expression on his face became sad and weeping, like an abandoned child, and the red plum seal between his eyebrows seemed to be dripping blood at that moment.

Qi Yue put the hand behind him and held it slowly, looking down at the man's appearance, frowning lightly.

After He Zhen entered the door, she felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange. Before she had time to think about it, Wu Yulan came over to take the water basin in his hand, and he didn't think about it any more.

Wu Yulan knew what to ask He Zhen to bring water, but, "There is no cloth towel!"

He Zhen never does any work at home, so it's alright to let him carry a basin of water, how could he possibly figure out the purpose of this.

Qi Yue took out a neatly folded white silk handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it over, saying, "Use this."

"This handkerchief should be quite expensive, right?" Although Lin Sheng is a rough man, he can tell the difference between good and bad. The material of this handkerchief looks good at first glance, so is it just like that

On the other hand, Wu Yulan shoved the water basin into Lin Sheng's arms, then took the handkerchief and threw it into the water to soak it. sweat.

Lin Sheng looked at her in surprise. The last time he was at home, he asked him to persuade Qi Yue that even if he had money, he should not spend it indiscriminately. !

He Zhen was very reluctant in her heart. The things she always carried with her must have been used by herself, but now it was used on He Ling, which made him somewhat unhappy!

Seeing Wu Yulan carefully wiping He Ling's hands, face, neck and neck, then washing the handkerchief, wringing it dry and placing it on his forehead to reduce the heat, Qi Yue opened his medicine box on the ground and took out a white porcelain bottle from it. Hand it over, "Sister-in-law will feed him a pill."

Wu Yulan took the bottle and poured out one in the palm of her hand. The pill was the size of a soy bean and was brownish-yellow. She put the pills into He Ling's mouth, lifted his chin lightly, watched him swallow the pills with a movement of his throat, and let go.

"Brother Qi, these pills are so good. Usually, Old Man Li prescribes the herbs directly. Once boiled, it will turn into a big bowl, which is unpleasant and unpleasant to drink!" Lin Sheng saw that his pills were quite novel. The medical centers you go to will have them, and they are more expensive than herbs, which are rarely bought by ordinary people.

"What's the matter? I'm so curious, do you want one?" Wu Yulan glanced at him, and made a gesture to pull out the cork that had just been put back into the mouth of the bottle.

Lin Sheng was holding a bowl and couldn't wave his hand, so he took a step back, "No, no, I'm not sick, what do I do with this stuff? Besides, this medicine is definitely not cheap, so I won't waste it!"

Seeing that the couple were so funny, Qi Yue found it interesting, and slowly curled the corners of his lips.

"Is this medicine... really expensive?" He Zhen hesitantly looked at the medicine bottle in Wu Yulan's hand, he didn't want to spend too much money on this disgusting thing, even if he agreed, his mother Nor would agree.

As soon as he asked the question, the eyes of the three people in the room turned around. Wu Yulan only glanced at it and turned back. Lin Sheng didn't speak this time, but his eyes were obviously full of mockery. At this time, they don't care about how people are, but only about the price, which is like their family's style.

Qi Yue's medicine is not commonly used for wind-cold medicine, and its price is naturally extraordinary. Of course, he didn't plan to say these, "I've only been in the village for a short time, and I should visit the village today. This medicine is a gift for meeting, and no money will be charged."

He Zhen looked at the pair of black eyes staring at her, and always felt that it was full of deep meaning. He seemed to have thought of something, and lowered his head with red cheeks. Did he mean to visit his parents? Does he have feelings for himself

Lin Sheng opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. Since Qi Yue had told him that he had no love for He Zhen, he should stop guessing!

Wu Yulan sighed softly, stretched out her hand to straighten the quilt for He Ling, and was a little more convinced of her own conjecture.

"In the past two days, his body may be relatively weak and he can't do anything, so take care of him carefully!"

"Okay, I got it!" He Zhen agreed quickly, but she didn't take it seriously. He Ling had been pale for half a month and a month since he was ill, and it seemed that he would fall down at any time, but he still had to do what he should do. I have to do it, I haven't seen anything wrong with him!

Looking at the expression on his face, Qi Yue knew that he didn't take his words to heart, and he smiled slightly.

"You have to take good care of it, otherwise the disease won't get better, wouldn't it make people think that Brother Qi is not skilled in medicine, this reputation is not good!" Wu Yulan fiddled with He Ling's hair that had slipped into the crevice of the neck on the pillow, and seemed to be muttering to himself.

He Zhen listened to her words, and began to think in her heart. In the future, he is going to marry Qi Yue, how can he let others say that he is not good? Isn't this adding to her own height, "Don't worry, I will have my cousin these days. Take a good rest, I will tell my parents!"

Qi Yue nodded with a smile, and then glanced at Wu Yulan calmly. It is said that husbands and wives complement each other. This statement is true. Lin Sheng is an honest and upright person, and his brain is often unable to turn around. He is really a smart person to marry a daughter-in-law!

Wu Yulan stood up, raised the porcelain bottle in her hand, and looked at her with an inquiring look. Qi Yue raised her hand and motioned her to put it on the window sill, and then said to He Zhen, "When he wakes up, please inform him of the pills in the bottle once a day. Grain, you can eat it."

There are seven pills in this bottle, just one pill was given to He Ling, and there are six pills left, so he can eat for another six days. The herbs used in this medicine are extremely mild, and also have the effect of replenishing the body. His illness will be cured soon, and taking more medicine for a few days is to warm and nourish his body.

After He Zhen nodded in agreement, the three of them didn't plan to stay any longer, and it was getting late. Lin Sheng and his family had both old and young, and Wu Yulan had to go back to cook.

Qi Yue lifted the medicine box, turned his head and glanced at the people lying on the bed, then turned his head and left the room with them.

Not long after they left, He Ling opened his eyes and looked around the dimly lit room. His consciousness slowly returned to the cage. He moved his arms to prop up his somewhat weak body.

Something fell on his forehead, and he reached out to pick it up blankly. It was a white silk handkerchief with a cluster of orchids embroidered in the corner. It was very elegant and beautiful! How could such a thing that is not cheap at first sight appear on oneself

Just as he was staring at the handkerchief in a daze, the dilapidated door was pushed open, and He Zhen walked in with a bowl in her hand. Seeing that he was awake, she put the bowl on the windowsill beside his bed. Let it go, and said rudely, "The eldest young master has finally woken up?"

He had always talked like this, and He Ling didn't care much. He reached out and lifted the quilt to get out of bed.

"Okay, stay in bed!" He Zhen reached out and pushed him, stopping him from getting out of bed.

He Ling raised his head and opened his eyes slightly to look at him. He felt a little weird. The other party even let him stay on the bed to rest

"What are you looking at? Do you think I think so?" He Zhen rolled her eyes in disdain and pointed to the porcelain bottle on the windowsill, "The medicine prescribed by Qi Yue, take one a day!"

Qi Yue? He Ling's head is a little dazed, what does this have to do with that person

"You don't have to work for the next few days, but you can't leave the purse I asked you to embroider for me, embroider it for me as soon as possible!" He Zhen didn't care about his confusion, and explained to herself, He took the silk from his hand again and glared at him at the same time, "It's really a waste to use Qi Yue's things for you!"

Seeing He Zhen angrily leaving the house, He Ling covered his head to rationalize his thoughts, and after a little smoother, he looked back at the windowsill, instead of touching the bowl of gruel, he put the small bottle He took it over, held it in his hand and looked at it for a while, then clenched it tightly against his chest, and murmured, "He helped me again..."

He Zhen walked briskly in the village, touched the purse in her sleeve, her face was full of joy, and when she met someone, it was also called by her aunt and uncle, and her mouth was very sweet.

When someone asked curiously, he smiled shyly, saying that Qi Yue helped him two days ago, and today he went over to express his thanks.

The person who asked looked at him with a shy look on his face, and there was nothing he didn't understand. People who knew what happened at the village entrance a while ago couldn't help but sigh, this brother of the He family is also capable, and he really won a golden tortoise-in-law!

He Zhen naturally understood what other people were thinking, but he wouldn't explain it. The more crooked they thought, the better it would be for him, and the things he and Qi Yue could accomplish faster.

Seeing the yard of the blue brick house from a distance, He Zhen's heart beat faster. In the future, this beautiful yard and the handsome man in that yard will be her own, and he will become the most enviable person in this ancient water village. brothers!

When he got to the door, he carefully arranged his clothes and hair before raising his hand and buttoning the door. The clothes he chose today suit him very well, making him look very ruddy and good-looking, which will definitely make the other party feel good.

There were unhurried footsteps from behind the door. Just like Qi Yue, he was always calm, gentle and courteous. He never panicked or rushed in anything, as if everything could be easily resolved.

I don’t know if such a person, speaking of those love words, is more gentle and disturbing? Thinking of something that shouldn't be thought, He Zhen's face soon became red.

The sound of the door opening recalled his thoughts. He looked up and saw Qi Yue standing behind the door, dressed in a light blue shirt, making him even more gentle and handsome!

Seeing the person coming, Qi Yue raised his eyebrows slightly, he put down the hand that opened the door, nodded slightly, and said, "He Xiaoge'er came here, but is there something wrong with your cousin's health?"

"No, no!" Seeing him, He Zhen felt that her whole face was about to burn, he shyly looked away, and handed over the purse that had been in his sleeve, "To thank you, I specially I embroidered a purse, and I hope Big Brother Qi doesn't dislike it!"

Qi Yue lowered his eyes and glanced at the thing handed to him, his eyes flickered, "You embroidered?"

"Exactly!" He Zhen nodded lightly, her eyes very sincere, "I don't know much, so I can do embroidery work, so I thought of embroidering a purse for Brother Qi!"

"Oh? That's right!" The smile on Qi Yue's face suddenly deepened, he stretched out his knuckles and squeezed the tether on the purse, gently lifted it and held it in his hand, saying, "Then I will accept it. Yes, thank you!"

"Brother Qi, as long as you like it!" Seeing him accept the things he gave, He Zhen was both surprised and shy, "I..."

"Then I won't give it away!" Qi Yue interrupted his unfinished words.

He Zhen was startled, but when he looked up, he saw a gentle and polite smile. He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Qi Yue had chased him away, thinking that he had something to do, maybe he was a little embarrassed? He smiled secretly, feeling that it would be a long time to come to Japan, and this is enough for today, so he said very reluctantly: "Then I will go first, and I will talk to Big Brother Qi another day!"

Seeing that the person was gone, Qi Yue closed the door, looked down at the purse in his hand, and gently rubbed the word "Ling" embroidered under the bamboo with his fingers. .

If I remember correctly, he had seen this in He Ling's house before, and put it on the back of his bed. At that time, he only embroidered a pen with the character "Ling", and he couldn't tell what it was, but the fabric and The color of the silk thread is indeed the same as that of this purse.

"Oh," Qi Yue chuckled lightly, "So it is."
