Looking at the wound on her hand that was pressed down by the Artemisia selengensis leaves that Xu Sanlang had found that was supposed to be able to stop the bleeding, Cheng Xi let out a long sigh.
"So young, why are you sighing?"
A voice suddenly came from the mountain behind him, giving Cheng Xi a fright. She turned and stared at the person behind him in grief and grief, only to find a grizzled hair old lady holding a sharp pickaxe in her hands. She carried a small basket on her back, and was smiling at him.
This was the only old granny with a kind face and a kind smile that Cheng Xi had seen since she had arrived here. This rare and kind smile made Cheng Xi feel very close to her, so she could not help but reply with a slightly spoiled tone, "Aiya, you scared me a bit, I was just thinking about something troubling me."
The old lady replied, "That's true. Given your current situation and your young age, it should be enough for you to feel troubled. What happened to your hand?" While speaking, the old lady had already sat down on a rock beside Cheng Xi. She put down the small hoe in her hand, and reached out to pull Cheng Xi's injured hand.
Cheng Xi did not know who the old lady was, but the old lady seemed to know his appearance, so it was not good for Cheng Xi to retract his hand. She could only awkwardly allow the old lady to hold his hand, and look at the wound on his hand.
"This artemisia selengensis really can stop the bleeding, but remember to wash it properly when you go back, and then find an artemisia selengensis to apply on it in case it swells up, do you understand?"
Cheng Xi replied with a light "En". The old lady then turned her gaze to Cheng Xi's head, "Does your head still hurt? "Maybe she remembered something?"
The topic suddenly shifted to the wound on his head. Cheng Xi was startled, and then, she awkwardly shook his head.
The Old Granny then turned to Xu Sanlang who was busy on the ground and said, "Zi Hao, come over."
Xu Sanlang heard the sounds coming from this side and quickly walked over. Seeing the old lady beside Cheng Xi, he respectfully asked, "Grandma Huang, why are you here?"
The old lady replied, "When we passed by and saw Xi sitting there sighing, we came over to take a look. Did you change the medicine on her head? You can go to my house later to get some medicine, and help her change it tonight. "
Xu Sanlang looked at the old lady with a little difficulty, but he still didn't say anything.
However, the old lady guessed what Xu Sanlang wanted to say, and opened her mouth to continue, "There's no need to tell you mother, just come over yourself. Don't worry, I dug out the herbs myself, and they won't cost you."
Xu Sanlang said with difficulty, "This is bad."
The old lady frowned, "Xi is your wife now, how can you ignore the injury on your head? "If you feel embarrassed, you can help me dig for medicine next time. I'll be leaving first."
The old lady stood up, and didn't forget to caress Cheng Xi's head as she consoled him, "Xi, try to open it, if you can't, since the sky is falling, your man will still be holding herself up. Zi Hao is not bad, he's much stronger than Xu Erlang previously.
Cheng Xi looked at the old lady's leaving figure, and said with an ignorant face, "Who is this old lady, it feels quite good."
Xu Sanlang reprimanded his with a dark face, "Don't just call him an old granny. If you don't know his, you can ask me, that person is the mother of the village's Huang Lang, everyone calls her Grandma Huang." He went back to his work in the field.
Cheng Xi stuck out her tongue at Xu Sanlang's back. She didn't know who she was, of course she could only call him Old Granny.
Xu Sanlang was busy all the way until the sky gradually turned dark. Cheng Xi was getting anxious as she waited by the side of the road, and seeing that it was about to get dark, she saw that Xu Sanlang was taking advantage of the fact that the sky was still clear to fish so she quickly walked back. She did not want to walk this overgrown pathway.
When she saw two black figures in front of the thatched hut from afar, Cheng Xi was so frightened that she felt goosebumps all over her body. She quickly slipped behind Xu Sanlang and at the same time, tightly grabbed onto Xu Sanlang's arm.
"That's your brother." Xu Sanlang said as he struggled to free his arm from Cheng Xi's grasp.
Cheng Xi's face became slightly red in embarrassment. Fortunately, she couldn't see anything at night, so she coughed and replied, "Oh right, brother and the others said that they would send me something tonight." She quickened her pace towards the thatched cottage.
"Second Brother, Fourth Brother, you've waited too long, right?" Cheng Xi went over and smiled as she greeted his two brothers. She looked at the wooden handcart at the side, and those who didn't know what was going on would think that the two of them were planning to move, right? Pots, pans, pans, pillows, everything.
Cheng Chen smiled and replied, "We just arrived too."
Xu Sanlang followed Cheng Xi and nodded slightly towards the two before stepping into the room himself. Originally, Cheng Cai had worn a doting smile on his face when she saw Cheng Xi enter the room, but when she saw Xu Sanlang walk in just like that, his face immediately darkened, "What kind of attitude is that?"
Cheng Xi had already seen her fiery temper before, so she was afraid that Yue Yang would rush over and shake her fist, hence she quickly pulled his hand and said, "She's always like that, Fourth Brother, don't bother with him, let's move the things in first."
Xu Sanlang did not seem to hear Cheng Cai's words at all, he went into the house and lit the oil lamp with a fire piston, then came out and started to help carry the things into the house. Cheng Cai looked at Xu Sanlang, gave a cold snort, and said sarcastically: "Moving things is very positive."
Xu Sanlang's hands paused slightly, he put down the food in his hands and said, "I'll go to the front courtyard to get some food." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Cheng Chen watched as Xu Sanlang left in a few words, and reprimanded softly, "Can't you just say a little less? That's Xi's husband."
Cheng Cai pursed his lips, and said with disdain, "Just like him."
Cheng Chen's face revealed a slight anger, "Your mouth, is really …"
Seeing that the two of them seemed to be arguing, Cheng Xi quickly changed the topic, and since she had something to ask them, she interrupted Cheng Chen and asked: "Second Brother, Fourth Brother, where is the restaurant or restaurant here?"
Cheng Cai thought that Cheng Xi was hungry and answered, "How can there be any restaurants in our village? I brought a pot over as well and brought it over for you.
Cheng Xi did not plan to tell them what happened in the afternoon. If this Fourth Brother knew the truth, he would probably have to go to the Xu Family to cause trouble, and at that time, wouldn't be peaceful again, "No, I want to ask where there is a restaurant or restaurant. I want to find a job, as you all know, I cannot do farm work."
Hearing Cheng Xi's words, the two of them frowned in disagreement. Cheng Chen opened his mouth and said, "A young lady your age, a restaurant won't accept you."
Cheng Xi could roughly guess the reason behind their disagreement. She probably thought that girls could not reveal themselves, so she said, "I'm already married, how can I still be a little girl? Besides, I can also pretend to be a fake boy."
Cheng Cai shot a glance at Cheng Xi from top to bottom, and unceremoniously said, "If you pretend to be a fake boy, then you're just a pretty boy. Just look at you, it's not something that can be used for running errands.
Cheng Xi speechlessly rolled her eyes. She felt that she should find a chance to ask Xu Sanlang about this, as these two brothers probably wouldn't be able to count on her.
She was penniless and didn't have enough to eat. However, she couldn't do this kind of work, so she could only find a way to earn some money to support herself. The only thing she could do was to use the culinary arts that she inherited from her past life.
The three of them moved very quickly, and in less than an hour, they had finished packing up all the various things. Cheng Cai once again remembered that Cheng Xi had not even eaten anything since he came back from the fields, and said: "Where's the biscuit, bring it over for me to heat up for you."
Cheng Xi rubbed her nose, "I finished eating."
Cheng Cai looked at Cheng Xi in shock, and swallowed back the words that were about to leave her mouth. She thought to herself that she had probably starved to death in the past few days, and the gaze she used to look at Cheng Xi was even more pained.
Cheng Chen's words were completely different from what Cheng Cai was thinking. He didn't think that Cheng Xi could eat that much in a day, and was probably sharing the food with Xu Sanlang, but he felt that Xu Sanlang wouldn't be able to live his days.
Thinking about how Xu Sanlang did not come back after he left, Cheng Cai frowned and said, "Xu Sanlang went to the Xu Family courtyard to eat? He didn't even take you to dinner? "
Cheng Xi hurriedly replied, "He was the one who directly brought them back to eat. I'm not willing to see Xu Family Member, she's the only one who goes."
"That doesn't have to be that long."
Looking at Fourth Brother's look of disdain, Cheng Xi sighed in her heart and changed the topic, "I want to boil some hot water. Fourth Brother, help me move the pot out, okay?"
Cheng Chen helped to heat up the stove, while Cheng Cai helped to wash the iron pot and mix it with water. Cheng Xi, on the other hand, was unable to do anything, and looking at the sky which was getting late, Cheng Xi said, "Second Brother, Fourth Brother, you guys can go back first, it's getting late."
It was indeed late, but Cheng Chen was worried that Cheng Xi would be alone at home. He stood up from in front of the stove and said, "This Xu Sanlang has been gone for so long, why hasn't he come back yet? I'll go check out the Xu Family. " After saying that, he turned to leave and coincidentally saw a black shadow in the distance. He stopped and said, "Just as he finished speaking, he's back."
When Xu Sanlang came over, Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai frowned. In Xu Sanlang's hands, other than an oily paper bag, there was nothing.
Cheng Cai was the first to speak, he pointed to the oil paper package in Xu Sanlang's hands and said, "Is this all you have? Where's my sister? "
Xu Sanlang lowered his head, and said while walking back, "This is her medicine."
He did not expect Xu Sanlang to be worried about his sister's head injury and went to get the medicine, so Cheng Cai's expression became slightly better, and his tone became less aggressive, "I had thought that you would be going to the Xu Family courtyard to get some food, so hurry up and take the medicine and let me go quickly. My sister is still hungry."
Xu Sanlang, who had entered the house, paused for a moment, and without replying, entered the house.
However, Cheng Xi could guess the gist of it. Most likely, it wasn't that Xu Sanlang didn't go, but rather, he didn't take anything from his, and although he was angry at the Old Madam Xu, he endured it in the end. She didn't want this impulsive Fourth Brother to rush to the Xu Family to fight again.
