Chapter 3: Repaying a favor

After hearing what she said, the others said nothing. In this world, whether you can survive or not depends entirely on your own destiny.

"In that case, let's go to bed early. The eldest and the second will take turns to keep watch. Remember to inform everyone if anything happens."

The only two adults in the family are the eldest. He is the second child, and they have been keeping vigil all the way, so there is no objection to this.

There is hay on the ground, which is much better than the previous few nights spent in the wild.

Several adults lay outside to protect a group of children, then took out the quilts they brought from home to cover them, and just fell asleep.

Mrs. Sun was worried that her grandson was weak. When she got up at night, she took a special look at the dog, only to find that the dog was no longer as sick as before, and its body temperature had dropped a lot. Her face was flushed and she looked like she was sleeping soundly.

Sure enough, it’s different to have your mother by your side to take care of you.

Mrs. Sun nodded with satisfaction. When she saw the white thing on the dog's forehead, she wanted to take it off for him, but seeing that the child was sleeping soundly, she refrained from doing it.

Everyone got up at dawn. Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Qin were busy getting some food, while Mrs. Sun and He Jiuniang took a group of children out to let the water flow.

The man on the ground woke up, his eyes widening in disbelief as if he had discovered something important.

"Young Master is awake? Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"

Remembering He Jiuniang's words and thinking that this person had an unusual identity, Old Man Lu's attitude was extremely gentle. .

Qin Jian was just wondering when a smiling old face suddenly appeared in front of him. He subconsciously tried to draw the sword from his waist, but found that his sword was missing. " It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter," Old Man Lu said cheerfully, "It's not easy for everyone these days, it was my third daughter-in-law who saved you."

An old face wrinkled up with a smile. I almost have to write the word "repay my kindness" on my face.

Qin Jian looked in the direction pointed by Old Man Lu and saw He Jiuniang coming back with her son after urinating. The mother and son didn't know what they said, both of them were smiling.

After three years of drought, countless people died. Along the way, Qin Jian saw all kinds of people, but he had never seen anyone smiling so happily.

Looking at this family, it is obvious that they came out to escape from famine. It is not easy for them to laugh so happily after they have fallen into this state.

“Qin Jian would like to thank my sister-in-law for saving her life.”

Although Qin Jian felt that this woman looked a few years younger than him, there was no other title that was more appropriate than this.

He Jiuniang nodded seemingly casually: "It's just a small effort. If you really want to thank you, why not show some sincerity."

Qin Jian's clasped fists froze for a moment, but he didn't. I thought this woman could be so direct.

"It should be, it should be!"

Qin Jian touched his body, took out his money bag, and took out only a small piece of broken silver for himself, leaving all the rest. Gave it to He Jiuniang.

Fortunately, the place where he was unconscious was relatively remote, otherwise if he met other refugees, he would probably have his pants stripped off.

He Jiuniang weighed it up, and she should have dozens of taels, but she was not satisfied. If she wanted money, she would have just taken it on the road. What she wanted was to lend him I wanted to find a place to settle down as soon as possible, but now it seems that this idea has failed.

Even so, the honest Lu family still felt that they had gone too far in repaying a favor.

"I have something unclear, and I would like to ask my sister-in-law to give me some advice."

After thinking about it, Qin Jian finally spoke, and He Jiuniang raised her eyebrows, guessing that he I wanted to ask something, so I nodded: "You tell me."

"I am very poisonous in my lower body, and I am not going to die soon. I wonder if my sister-in-law helped me detoxify it?"

The first time he woke up, he found that the poison in his body was gone. If he looked closely at his fingertips, he could see some pinpricks. It was obvious that he had received help from an expert.

Although the woman in front of him looked like an ordinary peasant woman at first glance, he always felt that this woman was something special.

"I don't know," He Jiuniang shook her head, "I just gave you some water."

The Lu family thought that the third daughter-in-law had died once and got it. What a huge ability, everyone's eyes widened, and it made sense after hearing her explanation.

Qin Jian frowned in disappointment, who could have saved him?

Thinking that he still had important things to do, he couldn't get too entangled, so he turned around and said to everyone: "I still have important things to do, so I won't stay any longer. We will meet again in the mountains and rivers. Let's say goodbye!"< br />
After saying that, he disappeared in front of the Lu family the next moment.

"This young master is really, he hasn't brought his sword yet!"

Old man Lu couldn't help but smacked his lips. He was about to say a few words when he turned around and saw He Jiuniang putting the money in her bag. All the white money was poured out to count, and his eyes lit up as he hurriedly went over to take a look.

darling, that’s a lot of silver! The Lu family has never seen so many in their lives.silver!

There are three large silver ingots worth ten taels, two small silver ingots worth fifty taels, and some broken silver. The total amount is about fifty taels.

After He Jiuniang counted clearly, she handed it to Sun: "Mom, please keep it."

But Sun confiscated it: "You saved the person, you can take this money. Just keep it by yourself. The dog is not in good health and there will be more money to spend in the future."

"Mom, our family is not divided. My wife and dog have been taken care of by my family these years. Money should be put in the public house for everyone to use together, so just take it."

He Jiuniang forcefully pushed the money bag to Mrs. Sun. She did it deliberately in front of everyone. .

There was no man in the original owner’s house. In the past, the eldest and second son were busy working in the fields at home. The dog was weak and sick and could drink the decoction as water. Although the people in the first and second bedrooms were kind and easy to get along with, privately It is inevitable that there will still be complaints. Now that she is putting the money in front of the public for use, it can be regarded as an explanation to the second room of the first house.

It is not just luck that Mrs. Sun can manage a house in an orderly manner at her age. After thinking about it, she accepted forty taels and gave the remaining ten taels to He Jiuniang.

"In this case, the money will be paid as originally planned, the public will receive 80%, and you will keep the remaining 20%."

After saying that, turn around Then he said to the second room in the first house: "You have all seen that the third wife got this money. In the past, this money would have been enough for our whole family for more than ten years. Nowadays, the world is difficult, maybe we can pay it back in the future. It can be our life-saving money. Although the third brother is not at home, the third brother has also contributed to this family. My old lady will not allow you to have any other thoughts in private."

The boss and the second brother immediately said , the third brother is not here, as brothers they should take care of their younger siblings and nephews.

The eldest daughter-in-law, Yu Shi, said: "We all understand what mother said. We are a family and we should help each other. What's more, if my brothers and sisters suffer such a disaster, their blessings are yet to come!"

The second daughter-in-law Qin also nodded: "Even if mother didn't say anything, we knew it in our hearts. The third brother and sister came back this time with food, drink, and so much money. This is a saving grace." How can we not be kind to their mother and son?"

The younger ones were listening and felt that the third aunt was so powerful and they must treat the younger brother Gouer better in the future. OK.

The dog's fever has gone down quite a bit, but he still feels a little drowsy because he has been weak since he was a child. He fell asleep in his mother's arms as soon as the adults started talking.

However, although he missed the excitement, he had a sweet dream, and he still had a smile on his lips when he fell asleep.

The Lu family didn’t dare to delay, so they simply packed up and hurried on.road.

A few days ago, the dogs were weak and weighed down, and they were already far behind the larger troops in the village. Now that the situation has improved, they have to catch up quickly, otherwise they may be afraid of more accidents.
