After walking out of Jiang's house, Chunxu's legs and feet were already sore and numb, and he looked like a baby learning to walk.
Seeing Brother Chunxu approaching, Fatty Zheng Zhui hurriedly walked over.
Just as he looked at Brother Chunxu's appearance, Zheng Zhui felt a little angry in his heart.
"Brother Chunxu, what did he do to you? Why are there wounds all over your forehead? How can I walk with my legs?" As soon as Zheng Zhui saw him, he asked a series of questions.
Listening to Zheng Zhui's questions, Chunxu's head felt dizzy and painful, making him reluctant to speak. He glanced at Zheng Zhui with an annoyed look on his face: "Why are you asking so many questions?"
Chunxu's words made Zheng Zhui have no choice but to say no more.
Seeing Brother Chunxu walking awkwardly, Zheng Zhui hurriedly helped him and headed home.
Along the way, I looked at Chunxu's face.
The people who knew him asked questions out of curiosity, while the people who didn't know him started talking with others.
A cold wind blew slowly, causing Zheng Zhui's teeth to "fight" with each other, but Chunxu didn't seem to feel the cold.
Looking at the evening sky, Chunxu seemed to feel that everything outside was good, everything was good.
Withstanding the cold wind, Zheng Zhui finally saw what the house looked like.
Although their home is not as good as that of a large family like Jiang Zhai, they think the two-story wooden house is the best place to stay.
"Brother Chunxu, be careful."
Zheng Zhui carefully helped Brother Chunxu to the bench. Seeing Chunxu's head hurting after he sat down, Zheng Zhui spoke:
"Brother Chunxu, just wait, I will go find medicine for you right now."
Seeing that Brother Chunxu didn't say anything, Zheng Zhui hurried upstairs to Chunxu's bedroom.
Many medicines were placed in Chunxu's bedroom.
As soon as he heard the noise, Li Xiran, with red eyes, walked out of the bedroom and followed Zheng Zhui.
Seeing Zheng Zhui flipping through the medicine in Chunxu's bedroom, Li Xiran sweated and asked:
"Zheng Zhui, what are you looking for?"
Zheng Zhui was almost startled when he heard the sound.
Zheng Zhui turned around and felt more at ease after seeing Li Xiran's face.
"Brother Chunxu is injured. I'm going to find some healing medicine for him." Zheng Zhui flipped through the pages, but as he didn't know how to read, how could he know which bottle of medicine it was.
"Injured? How did you get hurt?"
After asking, he saw that Zheng Chui was still looking for him in a hurry and did not have time to answer his own question.
Li Xiran didn't dare to think too much. He walked to Zheng Chui's side, looked at the pile of medicines in the drawer, and spoke:
"I'll find it. You can't read."
After listening to Li Xiran's words, Zheng Zhui stopped rummaging and stood aside.
While watching Li Xiran search, he just told the truth.
"Just now, we decided to ask Landlord Jiang, but the Jiang family dog looked down on people and did humiliating things. Afterwards, the dog was willing to report it."
"I thought I could go in safely, but I was not allowed to go in, and I was given a bunch of excuses. I was only allowed to let Brother Chunxu in, and then he came out like this. He refused to say anything to me."
Listening to Zheng Zhui's words, Li Xiran also found the bottle of medicine.
This medicine comes in a red bottle with a layer of red paper that says trauma medicine.
"Where is Brother Chunxu now?"
"downstairs."
After hearing this, Li Xiran took the medicine and hurried downstairs.
Li Xiran was shocked when he saw Chunxu's appearance.
There were bruises and purple spots on his forehead, but the rest was normal.
"Brother Chunxu, why are you injured like this?" Li Xiran said with pity on his face.
Looking at Xi Ran's face, Chunxu said: "It's okay. Since you have the medicine, please help me apply it."
"Eh."
After answering, Li Xiran carefully removed the cork and prepared to apply it.
Zheng Chui also took a long piece of cloth and stood aside.
Chun Xu raised his head, and Xi Ran carefully shook the medicine up.
Suddenly, Chunxu's face shrank in pain.
Seeing Chunxu's appearance, Li Xiran hurriedly blamed himself and put away the medicine in his hand.
"Brother Chunxu, you all blame me. If I had known, I would not have left the city gate, and now you are like this. I really hate myself for not being able to bear it for you."
Listening to Xi Ran's words, Chunxu said expressionlessly: "Okay, okay, that's in the past. Now we can only let Landlord Jiang settle this matter, so that he won't cause trouble for us in the future. .”
After saying that, he looked at Xi Ranwei who was applying medicine to himself, and said: "What are you doing here in a daze? Just put the medicine on. Just be patient and it will be fine."
After Chunxu's words, Xi Ran hurriedly put the trauma medicine in his hand carefully.
This medicine is very different from the medicine for golden sores.
The powder of this wound medicine is white, while the powder of the wound medicine is golden yellow.
The colors are different, and the medicinal effects are also different.
After the wound is applied with gold sore medicine, it will heal in one or two days, while it will take seven days or even half a month to use wound medicine.
But under the Mo Dynasty, people could not afford this golden sore medicine.
Golden sore medicine is expensive and can only be enjoyed by dignitaries and the royal family.
Finally, with Chunxu's patience, the medicine was spread evenly.
Then, Li Xiran took the white cloth from Zheng Zhui on the side and wrapped it around Chunxu's forehead.
"Brother Chunxu, what on earth did they do to you? You might as well tell me and I will avenge you!" Zheng Zhui asked very curiously.
After listening to Zheng Chui's words, I knew that he was acting recklessly, so it was better not to tell him.
Seeing Xi Ran's curious gaze, Chunxu knew that she was gentle and kind, so he chose not to say anything.
"Don't ask any more questions. This matter is my business and none of your business." Looking at the dark sky outside, Chunxu said again: "I'm tired and don't want to eat today. You can eat, I'll go up. Rest."
"Brother Chunxu, let me help you."
Watching Zheng Chui go up to help Chunxu, Li Xiran realized that it was not just his forehead that was injured.
Seeing Brother Chunxu being helped up the stairs by Zheng Zhui, Li Xiran sat on the bench beside him, feeling very remorseful.
Chen Ziyuan, who was now nine years old and had just finished going to the latrine, came over. Looking at Xi Ran's appearance, he asked worriedly:
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Uncle Xu is back?"
Seeing Zi Yuan's sensible look, Xi Ran unconsciously thought of Nanny Zhang. If she were still alive, she might not be like this today.
Xi Ran nodded: "Back."
"Mom, you look unhappy, but who bullied you?" Zi Yuan asked.
Xi Ran shook her head: "It's okay."
Looking at Chen Ziyuan, who is getting taller and more sensible, Xi Ran feels a little relieved.
"Okay, mother, let's go see Uncle Xu over there."
"good."
Watching Chen Ziyuan go upstairs, Li Xiran hated herself even more.
"Uncle Xu, what's wrong with you?" Chen Ziyuan, who was just nine years old, looked confused.
Seeing Zi Yuan coming to the side, Chun Xu smiled slightly, resisting the pain on his forehead and said, "Zi Yuan, it's okay. I just accidentally hit my head on a stone pillar. Don't worry."
"Uncle Xu, is it serious?" Zi Yuan asked worriedly.
Chunxu shook his head, smiled slightly, touched Ziyuan's head with one hand, and said: "It's not serious, just cultivate yourself and it will be fine."
Listening to Uncle Xu's words, Zi Yuan smiled slightly and said: "It's okay. Uncle Xu, why are you so careless? Be careful when you walk in the future."
Chunxu was very pleased with Ziyuan's words.
"Okay, I listen to you. Be careful when you walk in the future."
"Zi Yuan, have you been studying hard recently?"
When Uncle Xu asked, Ziyuan hurriedly answered: "Uncle Xu, I have always studied hard. The teacher said that if I study hard next year, which is the tenth year of Dechang, I will be able to take part in the provincial examination by then. . The husband also said that students like me are the best students he has ever taught in his eyes."
Hearing what Zi Yuan said, Chun Xu felt much better. He looked at Zi Yuan and smiled slightly: "Okay. Study hard and become a useful person to the people in the future."
"Uh-huh."
After Ziyuan responded, he looked at Uncle Xu and said, "Uncle Xu, you have a good rest."
"good."
At this time, Ziyuan walked out and closed the door.
Looking at Ziyuan, who is now ten years old, Chunxu recalled the scene ten years ago, when his father hurriedly sent him, Nanny Zhang, and Xi Ran away.
That day, Ziyuan was a child who had just seen the outside world. His hands and feet were very thin at that time.
Now, ten years have passed, and the infant Chen Ziyuan has now become a ten-year-old child.
And after ten years of separation, Chunxu has already forgotten a little about his father's appearance.
Thinking of today's scene in Jiang's house, Chunxu felt resentful again. He wished he could one day put a sharp knife on Landlord Jiang's neck and force him to eat shit.
Unconsciously, the sky outside the window is getting darker and darker.
I swallowed so many jujube cores today, I can’t even think about it, and I even lost my appetite for dinner.
In this way, the hunger strike lasted for three meals, until after dinner the next day, such a scene occurred.
At this moment, Xi Ran came to Chunxu's bedside with a bowl of porridge and persuaded him.
"Brother Chunxu, you haven't eaten for three meals. You might as well eat some. If this continues, your body won't be able to bear it."
Looking at the white porridge with some chopped green onions and coriander, I somehow felt a lump in my throat.
Looking at Chunxu's scene, Li Xiran shed tears: "Brother Chunxu, now that you are gone, what will the landlord do to you?"
Chunxu shook his head: "Go out and leave the porridge until I want to eat something."
"Brother Chunxu, how about I hire a doctor for you?" Xi Ran asked again.
Chunxu shook his head resolutely and looked at Xi Ran: "No, you can go out. I want to be alone for a while."
Chunxu looked like this, and he didn't know what to say, so Xiran had no choice but to put down the bowl of porridge and walked out.
"Shout if something happens."
"good."
After closing the door, Chunxu's stomach was already growling. Looking at the porridge on the table beside him, Chunxu suddenly felt sick again and didn't dare to look at it anymore.
I had no choice but to endure my stomach and turn over.
