In the second half of the night, the courtyard was very quiet, as if the conversation in the first half of the night had never happened.
It wasn't until dawn that there was another sound from the yard. It seemed that someone was cooking.
Yun Chang frowned again, and listened carefully for a moment, before confirming that she was indeed cooking.
However, she never heard the sound of anyone getting up and getting dressed.
Yun Chang squinted her eyes. There are two possibilities. One is that among the old couple, someone has higher martial arts than her.
There is also a possibility that the one who is cooking now is the living dead. The living dead didn't change his clothes when he slept at night, and he didn't need to wear clothes, and his movements didn't make any movement, and there was no sound of breathing, so it was extremely difficult to detect.
Yun Chang secretly guessed in her heart, then got up and left the house.
The kitchen was on the other side, the door was wide open.
When Yun Chang walked into the yard, she saw what was going on in the kitchen, and it was indeed the old man who was living dead cooking.
"Grandpa got up so early?" Yun Shang tentatively opened his mouth, wanting to see what this living dead man can do.
The old man didn't seem to hear Yun Shang's question at all, and he was still concentrating on doing his own thing.
Yun Chang raised her eyebrows, seeing this old man last night, his ears were clearly normal...
With some guesses in Yunshang's mind, she deliberately made some noises, which sounded like she was walking towards the kitchen.
Soon, there was a rustling sound in the room, and after a while, the old woman came out of the room.
"Wake up so early?" The old woman looked at Yunshang with temptation in her eyes.
Yunshang nodded, and responded with a smile: "I'm used to it. When I was in Yinzhou, because of the recent war, I sent many wounded soldiers from Wu'an City to Yinzhou City for resettlement. , you have to go to the place where the wounded soldiers are placed first, so you have to get up earlier, and you will get used to it after a long time."
Seeing that her gaze was no longer on the kitchen, the old woman relaxed a little: "Was there a war in Wu'an City, were there serious casualties?"
"Of course it's serious. After all, it's a war. How can it be serious? The imperial army fought three battles with the rebels. Although the imperial army won, the casualties were inevitable. Fighting in Wu'anzhou, going to the bank Most of the people sent by the state were those with serious injuries. Just like that, hundreds of people were sent over in just two or three months. It is not easy to resettle in Yinzhou City, so they can only be resettled in some dilapidated and unoccupied houses. In the yard, there is also Yizhuang, those inside."
Yun Chang sighed: "Many of them are seriously injured, and many of them cannot be cured. We can only watch them die. Those with lesser injuries are mostly unconscious, and those who have lost their hands and feet can only find ways to contact their families to pick them up. Go back and rest."
"So, when a war starts, the people will suffer."
The old woman sighed, then remembered something again, and asked Yun Shang quickly: "You just said that the army in the court and the rebels fought three battles, and the rebels lost all three of them?"
"Yes." Yun Chang smiled: "Although the rebel army looks menacing, it is not what the people want, and it is normal to lose."
Yunshang said everything she wanted to say, and didn't want to reveal anything more, so she just smiled and said, "It's thanks to grandma that you took in me last night, otherwise we orphans and widows, in the wilderness, really don't care about it." I knew what was going to happen. It’s all because of my memory, I had read the map before I left, and asked people along the way, but I still went astray.”
"It's lucky that you met me. There are many beasts in this barren mountain and wild forest. Where were you planning to go before?"
Yun Shang thought for a while: "I plan to go all the way north to Yinzhou, but after what happened last night, I really dare not take risks easily in the future, so I thought, find the nearest town, and then go to Find a carriage and take us all the way north, and if you want to stay in the next town, you can stay for a few days, but I don't want to drive alone with my children anymore."
"It should have been like this a long time ago." The old woman nodded: "I will show you the way later, so that you won't get lost."
"Then thank you grandma. I'll leave later when my child wakes up."
"Let's go after breakfast." The old woman had been paying attention to Yun Shang's expression, and when she saw Yun Shang say this, she let go of her guard a little: "Although my old man is old, his ears are hard of hearing, and his eyes are not very good, but this The skill of cooking is still excellent, try it later."
Yun Chang responded with a smile, but she didn't hesitate at all.
After a while, Chengye woke up, Yunshang heard him calling mother in the house, hurried in and helped Chengye get dressed.
That old man's craftsmanship is really good, but the old man did not appear at the dinner table.
"He is not in good health, he doesn't eat much in the morning, and he can't bear it."
"Ah..." Yun Shang nodded, but she didn't forget that she was still a doctor: "Why don't you let Grandpa come out later and I'll give him a pulse? If you don't eat in the morning, your stomach may not be able to take it."
Chengye nodded repeatedly at the side: "Yes, let my mother take a look, my mother's medical skills are very good."
As he spoke, he shook his head and said: "Eating breakfast is good for replenishing qi. If you don't replenish qi, you will have insufficient qi and blood, dizziness, fatigue, and slow reaction..."
The old woman laughed: "It really is the doctor's child. At such a young age, these things are very sensible."
After finishing speaking, he answered Yun Shang's question: "No need, the doctor has seen it, it's like this when you're older, if you insist on eating, you'll get flatulence easily."
"That's right." Yun Chang nodded, and didn't ask any more questions.
After breakfast, Yunshang took Chengye and got up to leave. Yunshang took the silver to the old lady, but the old lady didn't accept it, so Yunshang quietly left the silver in the house, and then went out with Chengye .
The old woman waited outside the door, led the mother and son out of the yard, raised her crutches to show Yunshang the way: "Just follow this road, keep going, don't go to the small road, you will soon reach a town Come on, there's a carriage in town."
"Okay." Yun Chang thanked the old woman, led Chengye to leave, and followed the path pointed by the old woman.
After walking a long distance, Chengye finally opened his mouth: "Mother, isn't this where we're going?"
Yun Shang laughed: "Well, turn around and see if the old lady is still there?"
Chengye really turned his head quietly: "It's still there, watching us all the time."
Chengye raised his hand, pretending to wave goodbye to the old lady, then turned his head and said to Yunshang: "Is she going to keep looking at us?"
"Yes." Yun Shang hooked the corner of her mouth: "She has to keep watching that we have not gone wrong, so that she can rest assured..."
