When they returned to the village, Xiaoqing had already cooked the rice and was standing at the door calling them.
As soon as he saw them, he greeted them, "Girl, you can eat now."
As she said this, she held Grandma Ye's hand and said, "Grandma Ye, please come too. I've prepared the chicken drumsticks for you."
Liu Shengsheng followed them and didn't say much.
Perhaps because the rain had stopped, there were obviously many more villagers on the road. The villagers gathered together in twos and threes, looking at them from time to time, and then whispering to each other.
"At first glance, these people are the children of wealthy families. It seems that Lao Li's family is very lucky, and they are ingratiating themselves with rich people."
"I heard that a lot of officers and soldiers suddenly appeared in the forest today, as if they were searching for some criminal. Maybe these people have done something bad and are being wanted. How can rich people casually go to a small town like ours? Village run?"
"What officers and soldiers? Are there many?"
"That's a lot. I think the whole forest has been searched. Maybe they will find us somewhere..."
"..."
The comments did not attract the attention of Liu Shengsheng and Nan Muze. Seeing that Liu Shengsheng was unhappy along the way, Nan Muze held her hand and asked, "Are you worried?"
Liu Shengsheng nodded.
"About those two old men?"
Liu Shengsheng looked at him in surprise, "You know?"
"I guessed that you haven't been in the right state since you showed it to them."
Saying this, Nan Muze continued: "You can tell them the truth."
Looking at the cheerful Xiao Qing walking in front, Liu Shengsheng finally couldn't bear it.
So she didn't speak during the meal. It wasn't until she finished eating that she put down the bowl and chopsticks with a serious face.
"Xiao Qing, could you please say a few words?"
Xiao Qing said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, girl, just say it. We are all straightforward, so there is no need to be cautious."
Granny Ye had eaten and drank enough and sat at the door with a cane.
Old Man Li was sitting on the bed, eating the food brought to him by Xiao Qing, and coughing from time to time.
"Your father has some basic diseases. He only felt uncomfortable occasionally. However, this poisoning injured many of his internal organs and worsened all his conditions. Therefore, even after taking the antidote, he still coughs wildly."
Liu Shengsheng looked at Xiao Qing intently, "Coughing up blood is a worsening of his condition. In addition, he is very old and many of his organs are aging..."
Before he finished speaking, the bowl in Xiaoqing's hand fell to the ground.
She looked at Liu Shengsheng blankly, "Girl, what do you mean by this?"
"If your father hadn't taken the antidote just now, he might not have been able to survive tonight. You should have noticed that, so you went to the city in the heavy rain to find the antidote, right?"
Xiao Qing swallowed, "But, isn't the antidote already..."
"The antidote removes the poison in the body and cannot help heal the damaged organs. Even if you take the antidote, you can only last three to five days at most..."
Hearing this, Old Man Li on the bed coughed violently again.
Granny Ye sighed at the door, walked out step by step with a cane.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became very solemn.
Xiao Qing's tears rolled down heavily, "Girl, are you kidding me, right? Look at my dad who can talk and laugh, even if he coughs a few times, how could he just..."
"Don't cry yet, I didn't say it couldn't be cured."
Liu Shengsheng said again.
Xiao Qing laughed directly, and while laughing, tears fell down, "Is what the girl said true? Will Daddy be okay?"
"I need to prescribe him a lot of Chinese medicine, three times a day for three consecutive days, and then once a day after three days. As long as he takes the medicine every day, it won't be a problem for him to last another year and a half."
After hearing this, Xiao Qing's face was still pale, "A year and a half?"
In other words, you have to leave in the end...
Looking at Xiao Qing who was crying all the time, Liu Shengsheng continued: "There is another way. If he can eat a thousand-year-old ginseng before taking the medicine, it will not be a problem for him to persist for two or three more years."
"Thousand-year-old ginseng?"
Xiao Qing was completely stunned. She had never seen such a thing before...
Liu Shengsheng said, "Don't worry, I have it right there."
As she said that, she glanced at Nan Muze quietly.
I remember that he gave me the one I had, but it was a pity that Yi Zhou took it back directly and didn’t take the time to put it in the space later. Otherwise, he could have taken it out directly now.
"Ahem, girl, you don't have to worry about me. I'm an old man. How can I afford such expensive things? I'm already satisfied if I can live to this age. Ahem..."
Old Man Li persuaded with earnest words.
But Xiao Qing suddenly knelt on the ground, then looked at Liu Shengsheng very excitedly and said, "Girl, please save my father. As long as you are willing to take action, I will be yours from now on. If you think I am useless, then I I'll repay you by being a bull and a horse in my next life, please!"
Liu Shengsheng quickly helped her up, "It doesn't have to be like this, get up quickly."
"No! I just heard that the thousand-year-old ginseng must be very precious, and it is not accessible to poor people like us. I..."
"Since I said it, I intend to give it to you."
Liu Shengsheng pulled her up directly, and then looked at Nan Muze with some embarrassment, "It's just that your village is far away from Jiangcheng. I left the thousand-year ginseng in the city, and I don't know how much time it will take to come back and forth... "
That little look of help was almost enough to ask Nan Muze for help.
Just as Nan Muze was about to speak, Jing Chun on the side said quickly: "It's just thousand-year-old ginseng. I have plenty of it. Why don't I go back and get it faster?"
Perhaps because he couldn't stand the way the two of them looked at each other, Jing Chun deliberately stepped between them.
Nan Muze frowned, "You are too slow, people can't wait."
"Brother Ze, what you said is wrong. You and I are equally equal in Qinggong. If I am slow, wouldn't you also be slow?"
After saying that, he walked out with a smile and waved his hand to Liu Shengsheng, "That's it, wait until I come back."
But Liu Shengsheng suddenly rushed forward and grabbed his hand, "Are you sure you have many there?"
Jing Chun lowered his eyes, looked at the little hand holding her, couldn't help but hold her, and then nodded slightly.
Liu Shengsheng smiled and said, "That's great. You can bring me two. Grandma Ye needs them too."
Jing Chun nodded blankly.
Such soft hands.
Just a bit icy.
Seeing that he was silent and silent, Liu Shengsheng withdrew her hand and patted him, "I'm asking you a question."
Jing Chun finally came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I heard, if you want twenty, I will find them for you."
While they were fighting and fussing, he suddenly found Nan Muze standing coldly at the door and staring at them. His fierce gaze seemed to want to skin Jing Chun alive.
Jing Chun became more playful.
He deliberately leaned into Liu Shengsheng's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Poisonous girl, it seems like this is the first time you take the initiative to hold my hand."
