Chapter 379: Put the knife into his arms?
"Yes."
Xia Ning took the medicine bag expressionlessly, dipped it in the medicine juice and applied it directly to Xu Wencheng's face.
Before Song Yuntang stepped into the back door, he heard a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"Ah! Sister Xia Ning, you want to murder me?"
Xia Ning paused, "The master didn't ask me to murder you, he just asked me to apply medicine to you."
Then he said, "My hand is a bit heavy, please bear with it."
"Then be gentler." Xu Wencheng screamed, "Gentle...hiss! Please, be gentler, ahahahaha, wuhuhuhu, it hurts so much..."
Hearing the reaction from the backyard, Song Yuntang could hardly suppress the smile on his lips.
Xia Ning looked at the young man in front of him with disbelief.
"I'm already very light."
Xu Wencheng covered his face and said, "I don't want you to apply medicine to me, sister-in-law, help me~"
Xu Qingye, who had just entered the backyard, shook his head helplessly and stepped forward to take the medicine bag from Xia Ning's hand.
"I'll do it."
Xia Ning nodded and handed him the medicine bag.
Xu Qingye took the medicine bag and began to apply medicine to Xu Wencheng. Because he was his own brother, Xu Wencheng was worried that he would be punished by the family rules again, so he gritted his teeth and endured the pain.
At the same time, I silently admired my sister-in-law's ingenuity and dexterity.
……
There were only three days left until the Chinese New Year. After Song Yuntang explained the affairs of the clinic clearly, he, Xu Qingye, Xu Wencheng, took Nian'er and Xia Ning back to Lushan Village.
Although she had been married to Xu Qingye for only four months, the Xu family treated her very well.
For the first time, I experienced what it means to be "eager to go home."
Upon learning that the children had returned home, the whole family got busy. They gathered at the old house early in the morning, slaughtered chickens and ducks, and also packed one of the three sheep that Xu Yuande had bought at the beginning of the year.
Mrs. Hu watched the children busying around in and out, and watched Hu'er's sweet mouth, calling "Grandpa, Grandpa" and occasionally stuffing a piece of candied fruit into her mouth, and she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
Xu Yuande's face was also flushed.
Although the harvest this year was not good, the family was not affected because of their granddaughter-in-law. Instead, their lives became better and better.
Many people in the village went to work on Sun's wife's farm, which helped to increase the family expenses.
In addition, the granddaughter-in-law was kind-hearted and concerned about the hard life of the villagers, so she was willing to collect the grain and sell it to everyone at the price before the price increase.
Although it was a bit difficult to endure, I didn't go hungry.
He is a blessed child.
At the exact time of Si, the carriage entered Lushan Village from the village entrance.
When the villagers learned that Song Yuntang and his companions had returned, some of them carried chickens and ducks, some carried eggs, and some carried pheasants and rabbits caught from the mountains and ran to the village entrance.
"This chicken is the fattest one in our family. I'll give it to you to eat."
"Qingye's wife, I have few chickens, and they refuse to lay eggs in winter, so I only saved ten. You can take them all."
"My man caught this rabbit from the mountains. It's for your health."
"And this pheasant of mine, stewed with mushrooms, is the most nourishing..."
"I don't have anything to give you. My dog just gave birth to three puppies, and I can't raise that many, so I gave you two. You can eat them or raise them. I heard that suckling puppies are the most tender and delicious..."
Song Yuntang was confused by everyone's enthusiasm.
"No merit, no reward. Life is hard for everyone, so we can't accept these things."
The villagers hurriedly asked, "Why is it in vain? Right now, only Lushan Village is peaceful. In the surrounding villages, many people have died of freezing, starvation, and disease. It's terrifying. If you hadn't had people give us pesticides and sold us grain at pre-price increases, our village wouldn't be much better off."
Song Yuntang understood.
Along the way, we did see quite a few refugees. They didn't even dare to stop their carriages for fear that people would stop them and steal their belongings.
But she didn't do these things to gain anything.
She is now married to Lushan Village. If the villagers here suffer, her family will not be spared.
"Although I didn't raise the price of grain, everyone paid silver for the grain. It's winter now and food is scarce. Everyone should take everything back. It's only for the people in our village to have food to eat, but don't tell anyone else."
Everyone nodded hurriedly.
"Don't worry, Qingye's wife. Your grandfather has already given us instructions."
As these people spoke, they stuffed the things in their hands into Song Yuntang's carriage and left. "It's not much, but it's all our heartfelt gifts. Take it and have a good new year."
Looking at the villagers who put down their things and fled, Song Yuntang felt helpless.
He turned and looked at Xu Qingye in the carriage and asked uncertainly.
"What should I do? Should I take it first?"
Xu Qingye hummed, "Everyone has run away now, and it's hard to tell who sent what. Take it first and go back to see what my parents and grandparents say."
At present, the elders are still the ones who are in charge of Lushan Village. It is more appropriate to consult the elders before handling these matters in the village.
Song Yuntang turned around and hurriedly instructed Xu Wencheng.
"Wencheng, don't stop on the way, go straight to the old house."
Xu Wencheng responded and drove the mule cart to the old house.
As soon as the carriage stopped, parents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters-in-law who were busy in the yard all looked over here.
Jiang stuffed the chicken and knife in her hands into Xu Yongwang's hands, and ran to open the gate with a happy face.
Xu Yongwang, who was originally holding the chicken blood on the side, was in a panic for a while before he finally held the thing that Jiang stuffed into his hand.
Looking at the knife flashing with cold light on the chicken, he swallowed nervously.
When the daughter-in-law saw her son and daughter-in-law, she didn't care about her husband's life or death.
It would be fine if I just stuffed the chicken into his arms.
Put the knife in his arms?
"Oh, I've been looking forward to seeing you back for a long time! Finally, you're back!" Jiang looked at the children and smiled from ear to ear.
Xu Wencheng called everyone in the yard and jumped off the carriage.
Seeing Jiang walking towards him with her hand outstretched, he thought she was coming towards him, so he quickly stretched out his hand with a smile.
However, when Jiang passed by him, there was even a hint of disgust in her eyes. She turned around and walked around her as if she didn't see her, and grabbed Song Yuntang who had just been helped out of the carriage by Xia Ning.
He looked her up and down and said with a look of satisfaction, "You look much better than before."
Song Yuntang smiled.
"After taking the blood-nourishing pills, my mother's complexion has improved a lot."
Xu Wencheng's outstretched hand turned around and touched his head.
He asked his mother why she was so enthusiastic about him this time, and it turned out that he was just being too sentimental.
Jiang looked at the unfamiliar face beside her.
"Who is this?"
Song Yuntang hurriedly introduced.
"Her name is Xia Ning, and she has some pretty good kung fu skills. Now that I'm out, it's all thanks to her protection."
Jiang looked at Xia Ning with a smile.
"Thank you, Miss Xia Ning. I hope you will pay more attention to our Tang'er's safety in the future."
Xia Ning nodded slightly, looking serious.
"My duties as a subordinate."
After Xu Qingye got off the carriage, he took out the things in the carriage one by one.
Seeing this, Jiang looked puzzled.
"You guys are back, so why did you bring so many things? We already have chickens and ducks at home, so we don't need you to bring them from outside."
"We didn't buy these things. I was just about to tell Mom about it." Song Yuntang pointed at the things on the ground and said, "These things were given to us by the villagers when we arrived at the village entrance. I told them I didn't want them, but they stuffed them in and ran away. That's why I brought them back to let Mom and Dad make a decision for us."
