"Okay, pack up and leave early."
Song Jiuyuan broke the deadlock, and Mu Xiang jumped back to the house.
Cheng Jinyan followed Song Jiuyuan, looking annoyed and helpless.
After everyone packed up, they set off and left the inn.
The weather is nice today, the sun is actually shining outside, so it's not that cold.
Song Jiuyuan and Cheng Jin were riding horses, while Jiang Wan and the other three were sitting in the carriage.
Mu Xiang practiced acupuncture with a wooden human-shaped tool, while Fuling and Jiang Wan were reading.
The carriage rattled away from the town. After driving for about half a quarter of an hour, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Jiang Wan and the others curiously opened the curtain of the carriage and saw old man Sun not far away carrying Sun Ergou on his back.
Sun Ergou was also carrying a few medicine bags in his hand, presumably they were the ones who grabbed the medicine.
"No, are they walking back to the village?"
Cheng Jin's fuss made Mu Xiang and Fuling speechless.
Mu Xiang grew up in the village and she knows better, “In wealthier villages, bullock carts come to town every day.
The poorer ones have to walk on foot, and it takes a whole day to go back and forth. "
"Cheng Jin, let them get on the carriage."
Originally, Jiang Wan didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, but she suddenly thought of the quackery that Old Man Sun said.
She was immediately curious. If the other party was really a liar, she couldn't let him continue to harm people in the village.
"Master is the best."
Mu Xiang jumped out of the carriage excitedly and hurriedly chased Old Man Sun and the others.
Old Man Sun walked with his head buried in his chest. He felt that his grandson was in much better condition today. He said happily:
"Ergou, I brought you to town today."
"Grandpa, we are lucky."
Sun Ergou felt the same way. After finishing acupuncture, his heavy body felt much lighter.
This feeling is still the same as before I got sick.
"When you get better, work hard to save money. If you meet them again in the future, you must pay back the medical fee."
Old Man Sun muttered, "Your grandfather and I have never owed anything or favors to others in this life.
When my benefactor asked me to keep some money to buy medicine for you, I struggled.
In order for you to survive, you owe others a favor. "
"I'm sorry, grandpa, I'm the one dragging you down."
Sun Ergou is young, but he is sensible early. After all, his parents died young, and he and his grandfather depended on each other.
The two heard the sound of a carriage coming from behind, but it didn't make much sound.
Old Man Sun was worried that he would become discouraged when he turned around and would not be able to carry his grandson, so he continued to walk with his head buried in the back.
"It doesn't matter whether it's a drag or not, grandpa will be happy if you are alive."
"Old man."
Mu Xiang finally caught up with them, and Old Man Sun turned around with Sun Ergou on his back. The two of them looked at Mu Xiang in surprise.
"benefactor."
"Get in the carriage and we'll take you back."
Muxiang looked at the old man distressedly. This grandfather's kindness reminded her of her own grandfather.
In the past, both her grandma and her parents valued sons over daughters, and the rare warmth she had was given by her grandpa.
Grandpa would secretly hide a sweet potato for her to fill her stomach.
"No, no, no need to trouble my benefactor, we will be there soon!"
Old Man Sun refused awkwardly. They had already taken advantage of them, so how could they have the nerve to ask their benefactor to send them back to the village.
Sun Ergou was a little moved. He didn't want his grandfather to work so hard, but he couldn't walk either.
"grandfather."
"Old man, my master is going to the mountains to collect medicine. Is there a mountain on the other side of your village?"
Mu Xiang said this deliberately, just to make Old Man Sun and his grandson less nervous about riding in the carriage.
"There are some. There are mountains behind our village. I see that the doctor often goes to the mountains to collect medicine."
When Old Man Sun talked about the doctor, his mouth was full of bitterness, "I saw that the doctor was quite capable, and I thought he was a powerful one.
Unexpectedly, he almost killed my grandson. I will definitely settle the score with him when I return! "
"Old man, get on the carriage first."
Mu Xiang led them into another vacant carriage, where Cheng Jin and Song Jiuyuan usually sat.
"Okay, thank you benefactor."
Old man Sun thanked each of Jiang Wan and the others gratefully, and then put Sun Ergou on the carriage.
Although Sun Ergou was only ten years old, he was still a young boy and very sensible. He lightly covered his mouth and coughed.
"I'll just take the carriage outside."
He was afraid that his disease might be contagious and that his breath might be blown away by the wind while sitting outside.
Old Man Sun also echoed: "Yes, we, grandfather and grandson, are sitting outside and I can still give directions."
Mu Xiang glanced at Jiang Wan with embarrassment. Jiang Wan opened the carriage curtain and said to Old Man Sun:
"Please, old man, show me the way and let your grandson sit inside. It's better not to let the wind blow on you for this illness."
"this……"
Old Man Sun rubbed his hands and said with some embarrassment: "We are dirty because we are afraid of dirtying our benefactor's carriage."
"It doesn't matter."
Jiang Wan gave them a friendly smile, and then Old Man Sun let his grandson sit in the carriage.
In fact, he didn't want his grandson to blow less wind, but he just didn't want to push the envelope.
After all, it was a huge favor from the benefactor to help them.
With Old Man Sun guiding the way, the carriage ran even more cheerfully. Mu Xiang pursed her lips and told the reason she had just found.
"Master, I didn't mean to lie."
She admitted her mistake quickly, and Jiang Wan couldn't bear to blame her, "If you have free time, go for a walk in the mountains to show off."
"Yes, master."
Mu Xiang's bright eyes were full of happiness. Not only did the master not scold her, but he also understood her so well that she was so happy that she almost flew up.
But Fu Ling warned her, "It's very dangerous to go to the mountains to collect herbs. You can't do it alone. You have to call us together."
"Don't worry, my good senior sister, I don't dare to joke with my own life."
Xu has been with them for a long time, and now Mu Xiang gradually reveals her true nature and no longer hides her emotions.
This is what Jiang Wan wants. She doesn't want her apprentice to be afraid of others.
While the few people were talking, they had already arrived at Stone Village at the bottom of Qingshui Town. It was only noon, and the people in Stone Village were looking at these carriages with curiosity.
Some children chased after the carriage with curious faces.
"Old Sun, why are you on the carriage? He must be a relative of yours."
"Old man Sun, didn't you take your sick grandson to see a doctor? Why did you come back in a carriage?"
"This carriage is very impressive. Are you lucky, Mr. Sun?"
"..."
The villagers in Shitou Village were carrying hoes, some were carrying baskets on their backs, and all of them looked curious.
Most of these people had never been in a carriage before, and it was their first time to see such a battle.
Old man Sun didn't dare to talk nonsense and just replied with a smile: "They are not my relatives. We are lucky and meet a few noble people who want to come to the mountains to collect medicine.
My grandson is not in good health, but you are kind enough to give us a ride. "
These people clearly didn't believe it, and Jiang Wan and the others didn't bother to argue and sat in the carriage.
It wasn't until they entered Stone Village that Jiang Wan opened the carriage curtain out of curiosity and saw a slightly familiar figure.
She never expected that this person would be in Stone Village!
