Chapter 6: The Year of Disaster

After Hu Yunxue helped Xiao Mo check the pulse, she put Xiao Mo's hand on her side again, and then said: "The pulse is still a little weak, you should take good care of it, Yunxue came this time, in addition to treating the brother of the Xiao family, she also brought a gift for the brother of the Xiao family!" ”

"Brother Xiao, it's so troublesome, it's better for Sister Yunxue to call me Xiao Mo directly!"

Xiao Mo said casually, and when he heard Hu Yunxue talking about the elder brother of the Xiao family, he replied with respect and called out to Hu Yunxue's sister, Hu Yunxue glanced at Xiao Mo and said, "That's not good, the brother of the Xiao family is older than Yunxue, how can you call it like that?" ”

Thinking about it, hearing Hu Yunxue's words, Xiao Mo remembered that Yu Niang was also younger than herself, no wonder she refused to call herself Xiao Mo. 【&n】

casually said: "In this case, then call me Xiao Mo, or call me Ziheng......" Halfway through speaking, Xiao Mo remembered Yu Niang's reaction when he asked Yu Niang to call her like this last night, and couldn't help but quickly close her mouth, looking at Hu Yunxue uneasily, I don't know if Hu Yunxue also reacted the same as Yu Niang.

Hearing Xiao Mo's words, Hu Yunxue smiled slightly, and said with a slightly red face: "Then let's call you Ziheng, but in front of outsiders, Yun Xue doesn't dare to call it like this!" ”

Seeing that Hu Yunxue actually agreed, and was only a little shy, Xiao Mo nodded secretly, and then asked, "What did Sister Yunxue say just now, oh, she said she was going to give me a gift......

It turned out that Xiao Mo was thinking about Hu Yunxue's gift, Hu Yunxue nodded, handed Xiao Mo a wooden box, Xiao Mo took it, and felt that it was not very heavy, so he asked: "This is?" ”

Hu Yunxue said: "Old ginseng, a great tonic, has great benefits to Ziheng's body, but you can't overdose, this old ginseng must be scored five times, once a day, five days later, I believe Ziheng should be able to recover his strength!" ”

It turned out to be ginseng, Xiao Mo thought it was some special item, hearing Hu Yunxue's words, Xiao Mo nodded, and asked happily: "You mean, I will be able to move freely in five days?" ”

Hu Yunxue thought for a while and said: "It depends on the specific recovery situation, if the recovery is good, if there is no accident, Ziheng will be able to get out of bed and walk in seven days at most!" ”

Seven days! Xiao Mo was so happy when he heard Hu Yunxue's words, he originally thought that he was going to lie in bed for several months, but lying on the bed these days was almost driving Xiao Mo crazy, especially smelling the smell of his body, as well as the itching all over his body, which made Xiao Mo unbearable.

Thinking of being able to recover quickly, Xiao Mo shouted impatiently: "Yu Niang, Yu Niang!" ”

Yu Niang didn't go far in the first place, how could she, who regarded Hu Yunxue as her rival in love, let Hu Yunxue and Xiao Mo get along alone? So Yu Niang kept hiding outside the window and eavesdropping on the conversation between the two, and when she heard Xiao Mo shouting about herself, she put down the wooden basin and ran in.

Xiao Mo handed the box containing the old ginseng in his hand to Yu Niang, and then said, "Quick, help me boil this!" ”

Seeing that Xiao Mo seemed to be very anxious, Hu Yunxue couldn't help laughing, and said: "I'm afraid that Sister Yu Niang doesn't know the boiling method of this old mountain ginseng, so it's better for Yun Xue to boil it herself, these days are the critical moment for Ziheng's recovery, Yun Xue will come once a day to prevent any accidents, I don't know what Ziheng and Sister Yu Niang think?" ”

Once a day? In this way, isn't it possible to see Hu Yunxue every day?

Hearing Hu Yunxue's words, Xiao Mo was of course happy, and said without thinking: "Okay! Belch...... It's just annoying Miss Yunxue! ”

Hearing Xiao Mo's words, Yu Niang was a little unhappy in her heart and pouted, but she didn't say anything. Hu Yunxue shook her head at Xiao Mo, stood up, and said, "I'll go to the kitchen first!" ”

Xiao Mo said, "Okay." Then he was afraid that Hu Yunxue would not be able to find the kitchen, so he said to Yu Niang: "I'm tired of my sister-in-law, go and help Miss Yunxue!" ”

Of course, Yu Niang was reluctant in her heart, but in order for Xiao Mo to recover as soon as possible, she still nodded and followed Hu Yunxue.

After the two girls left, before Xiao Mo could get excited, he heard someone shouting outside: "My son, Lin Dalang has come to see you!" ”

It was Meng Qiuxiang's voice, Xiao Mo frowned when he heard this, and began to look for memories of Lin Dalang in his mind.

After knowing Lin Yiye's identity, Xiao Mo said: "It turns out that Brother Yiye is here, please come in quickly!" ”

Lin Yiye walked in, Xiao Mo looked at Lin Yiye, medium stature, wearing a silk scholar's robe, dressed as a scholar.

Looking at Lin Yiye's face, the eyebrows were a little less, the eyes were small, after seeing Xiao Mo, Lin Yiye smiled, this smile, he couldn't see two eyes.

Enough obscene!

After Xiao Mo commented on Lin Yiye's appearance in his heart, Lin Yiye said: "I heard that Ziheng's condition has improved, Yiye came to visit, I don't know if it disturbs Ziheng!" ”

Cultural people speak differently, and they speak one by one! In this case, Lao Tzu can't drop the price, this guy is just a child, Lao Tzu is a talent, how can he compare?

Xiao Mo muttered a few words in his heart, and then said to Lin Yiye: "Where is it, you and I are world friends, when the younger brother is not sick, he and Brother Liang An are even more like-minded, after three years, Brother Liang An can still come to visit the younger brother, which shows that Liang An is a righteous person!" ”

Liang An is Lin Yiye's word, and when he heard Xiao Mo's words, Lin Yiye laughed.

Xiao Mo and Lin Yiye were classmates in the past, and the relationship has always been good, and Xiao Lin's two families are world friends, so after Xiao Mo fell ill, every time Yu Niang went to Lin Yiye as a thing, Lin Yiye did not make things difficult and reduce the price, this time after hearing the news that Xiao Mo woke up, Lin Yiye came to Xiao's house to visit Xiao Mo.

I don't know if the ancient scholars were very talkative, anyway, Lin Yiye let Xiao Mo see it! It's been more than half an hour, Lin Yiye seems to have endless words, sitting on the edge of Xiao Mo's bed and chatting with Xiao Mo all the time, chatting from Jingyi to articles, and from articles to poetry, of course Xiao Mo can't be compared to Lin Yiye, so he relied on the memory in his mind to chat with Lin Yiye with Brother Liang An and Brother Ziheng.

However, due to the fault in the history here, Xiao Mo is not sure which classics and poems have appeared in the history of the An Dynasty, so he has been very cautious, especially when talking about poetry, Xiao Mo kept silent, Lin Yiye asked, and said: "It's not good, let's talk about this one by Brother Liang An!" ”

Time passed quickly, and it happened that Lin Yiye and Xiao Mo talked about the fact that due to the drought in the town for three consecutive years, the crops were not harvested for two years, and Lin Chong had no choice but to go to the county to borrow grain. At this time, Hu Yunxue and Yu Niang boiled up the old mountain ginseng and came in with a decoction, Lin Yiye had no choice but to get up and give Yu Niang a little way.

After seeing Lin Yiye, Yu Niang smiled at him, even if she had said hello, Lin Yiye also nodded, and then saw Hu Yunxue.

"The goddess doctor is also here, it's really disrespectful!" Lin Yiye hugged his fist at Hu Yunxue.

Hu Yunxue also nodded to Lin Yiye and said, "Why is Lin Gongzi free today?" ”

Lin Yiye said: "Come to visit Ziheng, oh, by the way, Ziheng, what do you think of the borrowing of grain just now?" ”

"Borrowed food?" Hu Yunxue heard the words and asked, "What's the matter?" Is your barn empty? ”

Lin Yiye nodded, and then sighed and said: "Three years of drought, coupled with the loss of manpower in the town, there are only many old, weak, sick and disabled, or orphans and widows, our Fengming Town is now, it has really reached the point of exhaustion, not to mention my family, now I am afraid that the entire Fengming Town, every household does not have much grain in stock, this year is another big drought, the water level in the Weishui River is much lower than last year, and it can't drain our Changle Town at all, so my father had no choice but to go to the county early in the morning to find the county commander to borrow grain!" Just now I was discussing with Ziheng, but I'm afraid that this year my Changle Town will be another year of drought! ”

"So serious?" Hu Yunxue frowned when she heard this, after all, she was also from Fengming Town, if the Lin family's rice shop really ran out of food, she and her father would have nowhere to buy rice.

Thinking of this, Hu Yunxue also cared about Lin Chong's borrowing of grain, so she glanced at Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo was lying on the bed, hearing Lin Yiye's words, and secretly thought: Can you still die of drought by relying on the river? These ancients are too uninformed. So the old god said on the ground: "Three years of drought, only our Shen County is the most serious in Luzhou, Tongshan Town and other towns because of the low terrain by the river, so it's better, three years of drought, in fact, only two years of drought!" Our Fengming Town is far away from the river, and the terrain is higher, so it has a year's harvest less than the town next to it, so we need to borrow grain, but I estimate that there is not much surplus grain in the county now, and the county commander will have to reserve some grain to prevent the next year from continuing the drought, so this time Uncle Lin Shishu can borrow grain, it is estimated that there is not much, the most important thing is to rely on ourselves, find a way to drain, and lead the water in the river to our Changle Town, which is the best policy! ”

"Brother Ziheng is reasonable, but the river has also dried up, the water level is not high enough, and our Changle Town is already dozens of feet higher than the riverbed, how can we lead the river water to the town?"

Hearing Xiao Mo's words, Lin Yiye suddenly slapped his thigh, looking like he was suddenly open, but then sighed again! Thinking that with the topography of Changle Town, it is simply impossible to bring the river water to Fengming Town, it is better to imagine a way, how to borrow grain is more realistic!

If you really can't do it, go to the state capital to borrow grain, and then talk about it after the drought period first!
