Liu Er has grown taller, but is still very thin. He is covered with a torn sack. This is the standard equipment for coolies. It is wear-resistant and does not hurt if it breaks. It's just that if the sack is pressed against the flesh, it will irritate you. Even people who work hard often wear out the flesh on their shoulders for a long time due to this reason.
Liu Dagen was still dark and thin. When he came back, he took one look at Liu Xin and tried to drive him away without saying a word. But he was surprised to find that he couldn't pull the seemingly petite Liu Xin at all.
Musha? Liu Dagen reacted quickly. His face was even more ugly, and he felt even more anxious. He closed the door and asked Liu San to guard it to prevent anyone from entering.
"Why are you coming back? Leave quickly! Just pretend you don't have this home! Leave quickly!" Liu Dagen shouted in a low voice with red eyes, but his eyes always avoided looking at Liu Xin. He even felt that there was a pressure on the petite person opposite him that he wanted to avoid.
"..." Liu Xin didn't say anything, just stood beside her mother's bed and looked at him, watching him suppress his voice and look anxious and restless.
"Go! Go!"
Repeatedly means driving people away. But Liu Dagen's clumsy words could not allow him to achieve his goal, and even the "strength" he thought would be effective in front of the little girl was completely useless. Feeling powerless, he squatted in the corner and stopped talking.
After waiting quietly for half an hour, Shen Hongyouyou woke up in bed. Liu Xin quickly entered the spiritual energy to calm Shen Hong's emotions. Only then could the mother and daughter have a normal chat, but Shen Hong was still sobbing in the middle.
After taking one pill, Shen Hong's condition improved a lot and she looked very happy. On the side, Liu San proudly explained to his father and second brother that this was all thanks to Sister. His mother almost had an accident before, but she was saved by a pill from Sister. Now it seems that the effect of that pill is also there.
Liu Er was also very pleasantly surprised. His mother's illness has always been the top priority in the family. Now it seems to be getting better, even just a little bit, which is enough to make people happy. What's more, sister is back. It seems that life is pretty good outside, at least better than at home, which is good, at least the guilt in my heart is reduced.
In fact, it's not just Liu Er who thinks so, why not Liu San and Liu Dagen?
"You are living a better life outside than at home, so why are you coming back? Mom is fine, just sit there for a while and then leave quickly. If people see you getting close to a down-and-out family like us, you will be in trouble."
There are some things that Liu Dagen can think of but cannot say, but Shen Hong can say some. There are also some things that they can't say. For example, the source of their worries is Liu Xinnu's identity. No matter how good your life is, you are still a slave, and it depends on your master's face. If you lose someone to your master's family, it won't be surprising even if you are killed with a stick or sink into a well.
"Don't worry, I didn't become someone else's slave like you thought..." Liu Xin didn't say much, she just told her family about her current situation in a very similar way. Just say that she has long been free from slavery, and has a very powerful master to take care of her, so she is living a good life.
Such a general description can only be described in a few sentences. Moreover, with the knowledge of the Liu family, they would not understand the hidden meaning at all.
The Liu family were very surprised after hearing this. No one thought that Liu Xin, who thought she was sold, would end up miserable. They all felt guilty, but now they are living a different life.
Liu Xin's thoughts have always been on her family, not just the reunion, but also observation. People's hearts are fickle, and she could feel that these words were reflected on the faces of the Liu family at this moment.
"I have cured my mother's illness with the elixir given by my master. She only needs to rest for a while to recover." The joy in Liu Xin's heart has slowly calmed down. A pill from the master cured her mother Shen Hong's old illness. But it's just about curing the disease.
The trauma and loss of vitality left by Shen Hong's suffering from illness over the years are real, and there is no way to make up for it with the ordinary disease-repelling pills given by Liu Xin. This kind of loss will keep Shen Hong's body in a weak state and seriously shorten her lifespan.
If you want to make up for Shen Hong's hidden dangers and losses due to age, ordinary pills are no longer useful. As far as Liu Xin knew, only the Biqing Dan in the mountains, which was used to make up for Yangshou, could be used.
A green elixir increases life span by ten years. A person can only take one pill of this thing in his lifetime, and it is considered a very rare treasure even in the cliff mountains.
Liu Xin has one in his hand. This was given to her by her master when she went out. All three of her brothers and sisters had it. It was given to them to repair after desperately performing the divine art in critical moments.
However, Liu Xin was not prepared to give Biqingdan to her mother at this time. Because the mother's body has not yet recovered, using Biqingdan may affect the efficacy of the medicine and prevent it from reaping its full benefits. So I have to let my mother take care of her for a while until she recovers a bit.
"Liu Er, take this money and go to the market to buy some rice oil and meat, preferably fish, and buy it back to make soup for my mother to replenish her health."
Liu Er was stunned when he saw a money ticket and some small coins handed over by Liu Xin. This amount of money was not a small amount to him, and he had never even seen so much money put together. I didn’t know what to do for a while.
"No! I don't want your money!" Liu Dagen pulled his son. Although he felt a little less guilty now, he still didn't dare to look into Liu Xin's eyes. I just stubbornly feel that I shouldn’t take the money.
Liu Xin waved her hand, and Liu Er was pulled to the front by her magic power. But Liu Dagen couldn't stop it at all. At the same time, Liu Xin said to Liu Dagen: "What I owe you was paid off when you sold me. This money is not for you, but for my mother's livelihood. I owe her. I haven't paid it off yet. So if you don't want to, you can wait until you don't touch the rice oil you bought with the money.
Liu Er, take it, go buy it now, and buy all the seasonings as well. "
After looking at his sister and then at my slumped-looking father, Liu Er decisively chose to take the money and run out. And instead of taking the main road, we took a detour to go to the market. This way you can avoid the gangsters on the street.
Shen Hong fell asleep again, sleeping soundly. She had not been as relaxed as she was now for several years. Not only was she in good health, the daughter she had always cared about was living better than her best wishes. With my worries at ease, I will naturally feel more comfortable if I take care of both.
Not long after, Liu Er came back carrying a basket covered with black cloth. Inside were rice oil, two fish, and some seasonings that Liu Xin asked to buy.
Liu Xin learned her cooking skills from the cooks in the imperial kitchen of Nanyuan Palace. Later, she even taught Wang Nian how to cook. A fish soup rice was not difficult for her at all.
Liu Xin waited on her mother to finish the meal, and her two younger brothers dared to pick up their bowls and eat after Liu Xin greeted her. Liu Dagen, on the other hand, was holding his own bowl and did not touch the fish soup and fish meat in the pottery basin. Perhaps for him, a large bowl of white rice with a few vegetable leaves is already a rare meal.
