Does He Even Want His Face Anymore?!
Supervisor Zhang only responded vaguely, touching his chin, which seemed to be swollen, and said unhappily, “Who is it? Am I that scary? Why did she attack?”
He wasn’t injured in the mountain bandit robbery, but he was injured by this young woman. It would be too embarrassing to say it out loud.
Did he not want his face anymore!
Lin Yanan ridiculed from the side, “You think about your own words, they are all threats. It’s good that she only bumped into you.”
If he was threatened like that, he would definitely not spare the person in front of him.
Supervisor Zhang snorted coldly, glared at the people on the hillside, and said unhappily, “Forget it, if she doesn’t want to go into the City with us, then so be it. Let’s go in first. We’ll know the situation inside in a quarter hour.
Anyway, Xiao Jiang gave her a lot of food, so she won’t starve to death.
After a few days, when she runs out of food, she will definitely enter the City.”
After saying that, he beckoned everyone to set off.
Jiang Yimian glanced at the Woman again before getting into the Carriage.
Watching the Caravan slowly drive towards the City, the Woman hurriedly picked up the Bundle on the ground and ran towards the Mountain.
The Woman ran, looking behind her, making sure no one was chasing her, then walked in the Woods for several circles before running into the Dense Forest.
Saying it was running, it was actually about the same as walking.
She hadn’t had a full meal in a long Time, and didn’t have the Strength to run too fast.
After walking for nearly two Quarter Hour, she finally saw the familiar Cave ahead, and she quickly quickened her pace and ran in.
The Cave was a bit dark, with only a few scattered sparks of light illuminating the Situation inside the Cave.
Inside the narrow Cave, a Little Boy sat by the fire, his face red with an Abnormal flush.
A Man was lying on the ground beside him, the Man’s eyes were tightly closed, and his face was excessively Pale.
When the Little Boy saw the Woman return, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and called out in a hoarse voice, “Mother, this Uncle was awake for a little while just now.”
The other party hadn’t woken up for the past few Days, and had been keeping his eyes closed. He thought that Uncle had left like the others in the Village.
Fortunately, he hadn’t.
The Woman was stunned, and her tense face immediately relaxed. She tore off the brand new, thick Clothes from her body and carefully covered the Man, then handed the Teacup in her hand to the Little Boy.
The Little Boy paused, took the Teacup, and looked at it. He only felt that the flower and bird Pattern on it was exceptionally exquisite, and he asked with Doubt, “Mother, where did this Teacup come from?”
They had been in the Mountain for more than half a month, relying on eating Tree Bark and drinking rainwater every Day. Occasionally, they could pick up some dry Wood to boil some Medicinal Herbs to drink. This was the first Time he had seen such a beautiful Teacup.
He hadn’t even seen it before when there wasn’t a Flood.
The Woman reached out and touched the Little Boy’s head, and said with a smile, “Don’t go out these Days. People from the Capital have come to Qingnan. These things were given by those people. There are Medicinal Herbs and Food. We should be able to last for some Time.”
After saying that, she opened the Bundle and rummaged through it, only to find that there were a lot of things inside.
In addition to a stack of thick Ghee Pancake, there were also several packets of Pastry wrapped in oiled paper, and even a small bag of rice.
There was a lot of Food. According to the way they had been living in the past few Days, these things could at least feed the three of them for more than a month.
Not to mention the several packages of Medicinal Herbs inside.
Although she didn’t recognize many Medicinal Herbs, she recognized a few that cleared heat and treated external Wounds.
That Girl must have seen the Medicinal Herbs on her waist at the beginning, and knew that there were injured and feverish people around her, so she specially packed them for her.
The Little Boy looked at the things in the Bundle, drank half of the Tea in his hand, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, “Mother, is someone here to save us?
Why didn’t you bring them here?”
A light of Hope flashed in the Little Boy’s eyes, and his originally red face now seemed to be caused by Excitement.
The Woman only smiled and didn’t speak. She took out the Porcelain Bottle that was obviously for treating external Wounds, and then took the Teacup and put it in the leaky place in the Cave to catch water, then looked at the Man on the ground.
She didn’t recognize this person. At that Time, she saw him and a young Man on the Hillside and only wanted to ask him for help. Unexpectedly, this person actually jumped into the Flood.
Fortunately, the three of them were lucky enough to be washed by the raging torrent to the Riverbed downstream.
At that Time, the Flood was not as rampant as it is now, and the Riverbed had not been occupied by the water, so They survived.
She and Xiao Bao were fine, but this Man was seriously injured. He seemed to have been injured by a broken Wood in the Riverbed, with a long Wound on his thigh.
Due to Excessive Blood Loss, he lost consciousness.
At that Time, it was getting dark, and it was raining heavily.
In order to find a place to shelter from the rain, and also to avoid being discovered by the people in the City, she and Xiao Bao dragged this Man up the Mountain and found this narrow Cave, where they had been hiding for nearly half a month.
If she didn’t recognize some Medicinal Herbs, this person would have lost his life not because he was washed away by the Flood, but because of the Wound on his leg.
Fortunately, now there is Trauma Medicine and antipyretic medicine, this Man and Xiao Bao should be fine.
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. She untied the Wound wrapped in rags on the Man’s leg, opened the exquisite Small Porcelain Bottle, and poured the Trauma Medicine on it little by little.
The Cave was dimly lit, and water was leaking not far away, dripping into the exquisite Porcelain Bowl on the ground.
It looked a little out of place with the Scene in front of her.
The Little Boy just stared at the things in the Bundle and swallowed, but didn’t move.
The Woman applied the medicine to the Man, and when she turned around, she saw the Little Boy’s appearance. She smiled, the first genuine smile in more than half a month.
She reached out and took out a package of Pastry from the Bundle and handed it over, “Xiao Bao, try this Pastry.”
The things given by the Benefactor are different. Even the oiled paper on it is painted with beautiful Patterns, which makes her hands even more withered, yellow, dry and thin.
She was stunned, staring at her hands for a long Time without moving.
The Little Boy’s eyes lit up instantly. He took the Pastry, carefully picked up a piece, and stuffed it into his mouth.
The sweet Pastry had a faint fragrance and melted in his mouth.
He didn’t know what kind of Pastry it was, he only knew that this Pastry was delicious.
It was hundreds of times more delicious than the Pastry that Mother bought in the City a long, long Time ago.
He smacked his lips, feeling a little unsatisfied, but didn’t continue to eat. Instead, he picked up a piece and handed it to the Woman’s lips, “Mother, you eat too. It’s the first Time Xiao Bao has eaten such delicious Pastry.”
The Woman paused and opened her mouth to eat the Pastry. She only felt that her mouth was very sweet, but she didn’t taste anything else.
That Girl suddenly showed Kindness and must have treated her as one of those cats and dogs.
People say that the livestock raised in wealthy families are more precious than people.
Seeing that the bowl was full of water, she carried the bowl and placed it on the fire, and poured the antipyretic Medicinal Herbs into it.
The Little Boy’s spirits, which had been raised with great difficulty because of the Pastry, gradually faded, and he fell asleep against the cold, hard Cave.
The Woman carried the Little Boy to the Man’s side, covered the Two People with the thick Clothes, and then sat by the fire, staring blankly at the Medicinal Soup that had not been boiled for a long Time.
People from the Capital have come again, I don’t know how many Days they will stay.
They should be like the people in previous years, come and pretend to do something and then leave.
Thinking like this, the little bit of Hope that had been raised with great difficulty gradually disappeared.
