Inside the carriage, Duan Xiaohe's entire body shivered, she quickly pulled open the carriage's curtain and asked the people outside what happened.
They were all from the same village, and everyone had seen Duan Xiaohe before. However, they were all dressed up like villagers in the past, and their statuses and identities were all the same. But now, Duan Xiaohe was riding on such a beautiful and grandiose carriage in all her noble attire, causing all these aunts to be shocked speechless.
Following the commotion, Duan Xiaohe raised her head and saw a few people who were left behind on the ground near the entrance of the village running to the edge of the farmland in a panic. She couldn't recognize anything else, but she recognized the cow she had raised for a few years. This cow had even given its house to Liu Er's family.
"Quick, quick, bring me there."
She jumped off the carriage, and Little County Princess followed Rui Dong and the other two in the same carriage, but seeing her acting so crazily, they were so frightened their souls flew out. The two of them did not even have time to cry out in alarm when they saw a black shadow flash past them, and when they looked again, Duan Xiaohe had already run to the field over there.
She puffed out her stomach and pushed all the villagers away. Only then did she see Little Ruixue, whose face was ashen, lying on the ground breathless, with a few wild fruits falling beside her. Her heart was thumping hard, this was obviously food choking her throat, if this continued, Little Ruixue would lose her life.
The reaction of his hands was even faster than his brain. Duan Xiaohe carried Little Ruixue and pressed her fingers into her mouth to make her vomit. These two times had no effect and had instead made Little Ruixue feel even more uncomfortable.
Duan Xiaohe's heart tensed up, she once again sat down on the ridge of the field, put her on her lap, held her chest against his chest and pushed her head down, patting her back a few times.
Looking at Liu Er's daughter at this moment, although it was very uncomfortable, no one dared to stop them. Everyone in the village knew that Duan Xiaohe had once saved the life of the weak Begonia. Everyone hoped that it would be able to save the child's life.
The imperial physician rushed over with a medicine box. Seeing Duan Xiaohe save others, he was startled, and immediately realised that the child was choking. was pregnant, Little Ruixue was already five years old, and with Duan Xiaohe's current appearance, she was unable to treat her easily.
The imperial physician carried Little Ruixue and tried the same method as Duan Xiaohe previously. Little Ruixue suddenly coughed and a nucleus came out of her mouth. Her face, which had originally been green and purple, instantly felt much better. After a moment, she cried out loud.
Duan Xiaohe heaved a sigh of relief and pulled Rachel into her embrace. When Rachel saw it was her, she hugged her tightly and vaguely called out to her little aunt.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and turned their attention back to Duan Xiaohe. Seeing her extravagant clothes, the people around her did not seem to be people from the county. The most important thing was her already obvious stomach.
Everyone in the village was saying that Duan Xiaohe and Qin Rui had gone out to spend their rich days together, but Qin Rui was truly capable. Everyone had seen Duan Xiaohe's friendship for so many years, and knew that Duan Xiaohe would make money, so when the two of them left the village together, they thought that it would be a rumor.
A few more people were whispering to each other, saying that they had not seen Duan Xiaohe just now, how could her people fly over the edge of the field from the carriage in the blink of an eye?
These soft discussions caused Rui Dong to frown. Just as she was about to open her mouth to reprimand them, she heard Little County Princess unhurriedly tell Duan Xiaohe to take the child back to her home.
Duan Xiaohe couldn't hug Rui Xue, but the child was extremely scared, she was only willing to be next to Duan Xiaohe, and ignored her stomach, wishing that she could be on top of her.
"Sister Xue, get down here. Little Aunt has a little sister in her stomach. You will hurt her."
The people of the village all took in a breath of cold air, wasn't this jade carved little kid Liu Da's son? The man Duan Xiaohe had found was so magnanimous, she was able to help her with her second nephew?
He walked up to Rachel's side and whispered something into her ear. Rachel nodded obediently and came out of Duan Xiaohe's embrace, yet she still held tightly onto her little aunt's hand.
"Let me hold her."
Little County Princess rolled up his sleeves, wanting to come over to hug Little Ruixue, but was stopped by Duan Xiaohe. " It's not too long, let's walk. "
Even Rui Dong found it hard to bear with it, as she whispered in Duan Xiaohe's ear to remind him that wouldn't doing this look too ostentatious? She pulled Rachel forward without thinking, ignoring all the gossip.
A man suddenly stretched out his hand. The secret guard sent by the little emperor to protect Duan Xiaohe twisted her arm. The man cried out in pain, while the rest of the Liu Village people started shouting, saying that Duan Xiaohe had gone too far, why did she still have to beat him up?
Little County Princess gave the guard a meaningful glance, but the other party just ignored him and continued to look at Duan Xiaohe. Hearing the commotion, Duan Xiaohe immediately told him to let go of her hand, she was extremely sorry.
"Duan Xiaohe, even if you leave the Liu Village now, you can't bully our village people like this. I remember this cow is yours, now that you've eaten all my corn, you have to pay me! "
Duan Xiaohe was startled, she raised her head and saw that most of the corn had been eaten. Looking at his own cow, her mouth was still chomping on it. It was obvious that she was enjoying her meal.
Little Ruixue, who was holding her hand, ducked behind. Duan Xiaohe knew that Rachel was probably greedy and had kept the cow to graze on. On the other hand, Rachel went up the mountain to pick wild fruits to eat.
"I will compensate you with the money. Just now, it was my men who hurt Big Brother. We are all from the same village. Big Brother, don't take it to heart."
The man sneered, rubbed his aching arm and muttered, "So you knew we were from the same village, and everyone thought you couldn't bear to go out with people and have a beautiful life. Now that he was back, he would put on airs and show off his noble aura. Being rich is amazing? My injuries and my land, you have to pay for them all, not a single cent less! "
The other sister-in-law in the room was embarrassed and tried to persuade the man to give him the money. Rui Dong's face was filled with disdain. This kind of person who would only lose her life in front of the city, would she even need money?
If it wasn't for the Grand Princess who didn't know what was good for him and wanted to casually pull this Great Chong away, the emperor's secret guard would not have interfered either. Besides, he was still being lenient. If it were in the past, he would have taken off one of his arms long ago.
Rui Dong was unwilling to take five taels of silver and wanted to smash them all down, but when she saw Duan Xiaohe looking at him, she kept his temper and placed it in the man's hand.
When the people in the village saw the 5 taels of silver, their eyes widened. Five taels of silver, this should be equivalent to half a year's worth of money! The corn stalks in this field were nibbled in half and earned five taels of silver. This was a windfall!
Duan Xiaohe apologized to someone, seeing that the situation had ended and everyone had dispersed, she headed back home. Along the way, she greeted people she was familiar with warmly. She ignored the others who were staring at her stomach and continued walking.
Arriving at the familiar entrance of the house, Duan Xiaohe saw that there were two strings of red chilies hanging on the gate. Duan Xiaohe smiled, her small foreign room that was covered with the red pepper looked a little out of place, but it immediately added a bit of warmth to the place.
Pushing the door open and entering, he saw that there were still seven or eight chickens, two or three ducks, and a whole cow shed inside the chicken coop … Nothing in the yard had changed.
She raised her head and saw that there was a red blanket on the balcony outside her room. It was extremely festive.
It seems that Liu Er's family knew how to live their lives.
"Mother!"
Rui Xue burst into tears and ran to the front. Duan Xiaohe and the rest looked over, only to see Widow Li standing at the kitchen door, holding a dustpan in her hands, with some radish sticks inside.
"Duan Xiaohe."
The Widow Li muttered as she stared at Duan Xiaohe who did not wear any jewelry yet looked as luxurious as ever. When her gaze landed on her stomach, Widow Li took a deep breath. Then, she saw the sleeves at the side, Widow Li suddenly exclaimed in shock, she turned and ran towards the hall, while shouting Liu Er's name.
Liu Er walked out with a face full of weariness, seeing the people filled to the brim in the courtyard, he was immediately stunned. Whenhe saw Duan Xiaohe, she rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
"Where's father?"
Liu Er just remembered that Duan Xiaohe had come back with a message from Qian Qiaoqiao and did not come back to ask for a house. He immediately saw the Ascendant cultivator at the side, and ran over to grab his hand, then ran towards Liu Da's house.
Duan Xiaohe's heart jumped, and followed along.
The room was still the same, and the bed was still in its place. However, there was the smell of the medicine inside, making him want to vomit. The windows in the room were tightly closed, probably afraid that Old Man Liu would suffer from a cold wind and aggravate his illness.
Old Man Liu on the bed was only a handful of bones, his face was dark, his yellow eyes stared at the ceiling, his throat was filled with phlegm, it sounded like a phlegm that was choked into the windpipe of a patient in a modern hospital, the sound of the sputum sucking machine made from his mouth made Ki Xiu jump behind Duan Xiaohe in fear.
Duan Xiaohe felt a wave of discomfort in her heart as she saw this. She pulled Xiu Xiu out and brought him to the bedside. "Dad, I've brought back my attainments in cultivation to visit you."
Old Man Liu's eyes suddenly widened, and his head looked like it was slowly moving towards them. She had been well protected since she was young, and now, she was crying in fear. Duan Xiaohe covered her mouth as tears also rolled down her cheeks.
"Don't be afraid, Adept. Grandpa was always like this when he was sick. He used to treat you so well."
She forcefully pulled the child's hand to Old Man Liu's side, thinking that the grandfather and grandson pair could hold hands. Unexpectedly, she retracted her hand back in an instant, as she could see that Old Man Liu's withered hand had suddenly stiffened.
Duan Xiaohe tugged on his sword, which raised its head to reveal its two terrified eyes. In the end, she couldn't bear it and dragged Xiu behind her. She carefully squatted in front of the bed and called out for her father.
Old Man Liu's yellow eyes finally lit up, and she smiled." I brought along a very famous doctor from the capital. With his treatment, maybe father's illness can be cured. Don't worry, let's take it slow. This is where I will stay with Kung Fu. I won't be going back to the capital ever again.
When she heard his words, she turned her head to glare at him. However, he didn't dare to move again.
She called for the imperial physician to come in and check the pulse of the Old Man Liu. The imperial physician sighed and shook his head.
Old Man Liu took a deep breath and asked her: "Where's boss?"
She told him everything Qian Qiaoqiao said, and also said that she would definitely find Liu Da. Old Man Liu once again recited the term "attainments", and once again, she brought the "attainments" to him. No one had expected that Old Man Liu would be able to be so fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had tightly grabbed onto the little hand of Ascendant cultivators, scaring them so much that their feet almost jumped off their feet.
Old Man Liu glared with his eyes wide, as he squeezed out a few words with all his might. "Find your father, I want to find your father!"
wanted to pull away Old Man Liu's hand, but it was as if his hand was welded to death, unable to break even if he tried. Liu Er who was at the side kneeled down and cried out.
When she turned back, Old Man Liu was already dead.
