It was exactly nine o'clock in the evening, and there were no lights in the house.
After Cheng Wanwan woke up, she lit a candle. She inquired and learned that the accident did not cause death. Although Mr. Wu was the last one and was blown away by the air wave, his internal organs were not injured. Others The man just rolled down and scratched his skin, nothing serious, but she was the unlucky one. She hit her head on a rock. After talking for a while, she got tired and fell asleep again.
Early in the morning, she was still asleep, but the yard was already bustling with activity.
Mrs. Zhao walked in carrying a squab: "Daughter-in-law of Dashan, stew the pigeons. Your mother can drink it whenever she gets up. It will replenish her energy."
"I bought some Gastrodia Codonopsis from the drugstore, let's put it in and stew it together." Lu Yingxue put a pack of herbs on the stove, "If you hit your head, you must drink these, otherwise you will have a headache when it rains in the future."
Zhao Dashan said repeatedly: "No need, Aunt Lu. Master Shen sent me a ginseng yesterday. You can eat it sliced for a long time."
Before Lu Yingxue could say anything, Mrs. Zhu came in, carrying a big crucian carp in her hand: "The crucian carp will replenish your body. I'll stew it for your mother to drink later."
"I caught a turtle dove from the mountain. I heard that this thing can replenish blood."
"I went to the city to buy the freshest pork liver. Pork liver boiled with corn is best for injured people."
The villagers enthusiastically sent all kinds of nutritious food, and the tables in the kitchen were all filled.
Zhao Dashan and Wu Huiniang kept saying no, but the villagers insisted on giving them away, so they dropped their things and left, for fear of being returned.
While they were busy, a carriage stopped at the entrance of the yard, and Master Yuan and Magistrate Shen got out of the carriage.
Magistrate Shen's chin had green stubble, and he obviously hadn't slept well all night. He walked in and asked, "How is Suiru's condition?"
Zhao Dashan tried his best to look relaxed: "My mother woke up last night and is still resting now. She should be fine."
"That's good, that's good." County Magistrate Shen breathed a sigh of relief and took the things from Master Yuan's hand and handed them over, "These are some ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum I bought in Huzhou. Use them as you need. Don't let you My mother is left with a headache."
Zhao Dashan quickly handed over his hand: "Thank you, Lord County Magistrate."
"We are all a family, there is no need to be polite." County Magistrate Shen helped him up, "I will go to Mr. Wu to discuss the matter. If your mother wakes up, send someone to inform you immediately."
Zhao Dashan nodded in agreement.
Many people in the village came to inquire about the news. They were relieved to hear that Cheng Wanwan woke up once last night.
Everyone gathered together and talked in low voices.
"Dashan Niangji has his own destiny, and nothing will happen to him."
"Old Mountain Mother could have left earlier, but in order to protect everyone, she fell in the last place, otherwise she wouldn't have been so seriously injured."
"After becoming an official, Dashan Niang has never looked down on us idiots. She knew that there would be an explosion, but she didn't leave alone first. She has the people at heart, and she is the god of our Dahe Village!"
"I heard from Mr. Wu that Dashan Niang went up there for the safety of Meishan. If Dashan Niang hadn't been smart, twenty or thirty people would have died this time."
"My man was fetching water from the mine, and he was almost buried underneath."
"..."
People in the village are still frightened.
In the past, they only thought that Sui Ruren was an official position, but now that they mentioned it, they realized that these three words were worth a thousand pounds.
When they reach this position, their thoughts are completely different from ordinary people like them. They don't have such a pattern, so they can't become Suiru people after all.
"Mom, you wake up!"
Zhao Sidan's joyful voice came from the house, and people talking in the yard immediately rushed in.
"Hey, don't squeeze into the house." Old Mrs. Zhao waved her hand to drive people out. "I just woke up and I haven't recovered my breath yet. Can you all come visit me when you're almost healed?"
Mrs. Zhu agreed very much: "Let's go, go to work, don't hang around here."
People in the yard knew the seriousness of the matter, and after saying a few words of concern outside, they dispersed.
Cao Yingying helped Cheng Wanwan sit up by the bed and placed a soft pillow behind her.
Wu Huiniang walked in with a bowl of pork liver porridge: "Mom, drink this bowl of porridge first and then take the medicine."
Cheng Wanwan had never felt so weak before. She lay down for two or three days without eating anything and her hands and feet had no strength. Cheng Yuanyuan helped to feed a bowl of porridge. After there was something in her stomach, her strength slowly recovered. She closed her eyes and drank the dark concoction in one gulp.
Mrs. Zhao immediately stuffed a candied fruit and put it in her mouth: "This medicine smells bitter, eat something sweet."
Cheng Wanwan held the candied fruit in her mouth with satisfaction: "Thank you, mother."
"We are a family. Saying thank you would be too disrespectful." Old Mrs. Zhao sat down by the bed and said earnestly, "You clearly knew that something was wrong with Meishan, but you didn't run away quickly. You must be the last one...you You are a woman, a weak woman. You are weaker than those men, so you should be the first to run away. Look, there are so many people, but you are the only one who has been so seriously injured, and your face has become thinner..."
Her voice was full of distress.
The eldest daughter-in-law has been lying unconscious in bed for the past two days. She is really going crazy.
"Don't do such stupid things again, you hear me!"
Mrs. Zhao warned her again and again.
Wu Huiniang said with tears in her eyes: "Mom, you are the most important to our family."
Cao Yingying held Cheng Wanwan's hand tightly: "Mom, please think more about yourself in the future. If something happens to you, what will our family do?"
"Woooooooo..." Zhao Sidan couldn't help crying, "Mom, don't scare us anymore, I'm really scared..."
Cheng Wanwan hugged her youngest son tightly and touched his head.
She also knew that she was too reckless, but under the circumstances, she really couldn't care so much.
Seeing the people in the room looking at her worriedly, she quickly said to reassure: "Don't worry, everyone. I will put my own safety first in the future and will not put myself in danger again."
As soon as he finished drinking the medicine, Zhao Ergou came in with a big bowl full of ginseng and pigeon soup.
Cheng Wanwan was indeed starving, and she killed most of the pigeons in an instant while leaning against the head of the bed. After eating, she lifted the quilt and got out of bed to walk around.
If it weren't for the gauze still tied on the left side of her head, she would have felt like she was back to normal.
At this time, Wei Hongying came in and reported: "Auntie, Master Wu and the county magistrate are here."
Mrs. Zhao said: "Let's just say that Sui Ruren has just woken up and is not well yet. Let the two adults come to visit him another day."
"I'm almost in good health." Cheng Wanwan said hurriedly, "I also have something to say to Mr. Wu about this coal mountain explosion. You all should stop hanging around here. I want to change my clothes."
The clothes I wore had been worn for two days and two nights. They were dirty and I couldn't go out to meet guests.
She washed her face, wiped her body, put on clean clothes, and asked Wei Hongying to come over and help her pull up her hair before going out to meet Mr. Wu and Magistrate Shen.
