697 Chapter 697 My Daughter, in Jiangnan
I was awakened by the burning burning pain on my face.? ?
When I opened my eyes, the sun was shining on my face, but the winter sun was not so hot. What made me feel pain should be the poison that had not yet been cured in my body.
I clenched my teeth in pain to suppress my moans.
Then, I turned around and found that I was in a simple room with a wooden bed underneath, with a not-so-thick mattress. I didn't know where the coat was, and I was wearing only a simple cloth cloak with a thin quilt on my body. Fortunately, the weather was not too cold. There was a big hole in the tent, and the sunlight shining in from the window just passed through the big hole and shone on my face.
I blinked and looked around with a little dazed look.
here it is--
At this moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside. I opened my eyes in surprise and subconsciously curled up to the corner of the bed. I saw two simple-dressed children running in, one man and one woman. The older boy was already sixteen and seven years old. He was very tall and had a childish reckless look on his face. The younger girl was only five or six years old. She blinked her big eyes and looked at me, and she was dragging her nose.
When the boy saw me sitting on the bed, he immediately shouted loudly: "Mom, that person is awake!"
This loud voice also scared me, and another woman ran in outside the door immediately.
The mother and San'er stood at the door and looked at me. No one said anything for a moment. There was a ragged bed tent in the middle. At this time, I finally woke up from the chaos and immediately remembered the incident I had experienced before I was unconscious. But why did I sleep in such a home when I woke up?
Finally, the woman spoke carefully: "Are you awake?"
I also spoke carefully: "Yeah, you are..."
As I said that, I wanted to reach out to lift the tent, but as soon as I reached out, I remembered that my face was terrifying now, and I was afraid of scaring the two children. But the woman wiped her hands and hurriedly walked up and said with a smile: "Don't worry, they have seen them all. Don't be afraid."
After saying that, she lifted the tent and hung it.
This time, I could see more clearly that this woman is about thirty years old, with a beautiful appearance and some color. She can only see that she has experienced a lot of hardships, her skin is rough, and there are fine wrinkles in the corners of her eyes. Her hands look thick and powerful, and she is very quick and easy to do things. The two children probably have seen my face a long time ago and did not make a fuss, but the little girl was still carefully leaping on the door and looking inside.
After packing the bed tent, the woman took out a white-washed dress from the side and said shyly: "There are not many clothes at home, please wear them first. The one you used to wash and have not dried yet. I will give it to you after you have dried."
I took the clothes and suddenly remembered something. I hurriedly touched the close-fitting clothes. When the woman saw me like this, she hurriedly said "Oh", reached out and touched something from under the pillow and handed it to me: "You are looking for this, right? It fell down when you changed your clothes. Don't worry, I didn't see it."
What she has in her hand is a brocade bag.
That is, when Qinghan pushed me down from the terrace, he stuffed the things in my hand.
I hurriedly took it, looked inside carefully, and confirmed that it was fine, so I raised my head and said embarrassedly: "Thank you."
She looked at my nervous look and just smiled, saying, "It's okay. Put on your clothes quickly and don't catch a cold." As she said that, she turned around and saw the two children still stalking at the door, and said to her eldest son, "Why don't you go out quickly, what are you looking at!"
When the child turned around and ran out, she turned around and I had already put on my clothes. I tried to get out of bed with discomfort, but before my feet were steadily pressed on the ground, I felt dizzy. She hurried over and helped me sit down. Her hands were thick and hard, but the feeling of holding me was very gentle. I raised my head gratefully: "Thank you. I don't know the name of Gao's benefactor."
She waved her hand at me quickly: "There is no big name for Gao? Just call me Qi Sister-in-law. Those two are my children. The older one is Ping'er, and the younger one has no name yet, just call her Eryatou."
"Oh, Seventh Sister, I--"
"And," she stroked a messy head behind her cheeks and smiled, "I'm not your benefactor."
“Huh?”
Sister Qi said, "It was a nun who sent you here."
"Nikkhun?"
I was stunned for a moment, but soon, my mind that had already woken up found some broken pieces of memory.
The place where I fainted was at least a distance from Yangzhou City. The moment before I fainted, I saw a pair of blue-gray shoes, which were worn by those who practiced, and the smell of sandalwood. Everything was not in line with the simple houses and the seventh sister-in-law who was quick to do.
It turns out that the one who saved me was a nun.
I asked hurriedly, "Where is her?"
Sister Qi said, "She has been guarding you for a while, but you haven't woken up. She has something else to do, so she left."
"ah……"
I sat by the bed with some regret. It seems that it was the nun who rescued me from the mountains and forests, brought me here and entrusted it to Sister Qi, and then left. Unfortunately, I was in a coma and didn't even have the chance to wake up and thank her.
At this time, Sister Qi had already poured a bowl of hot water and handed it to me, saying, "You have been sleeping for so long, must you be hungry, right? Wait a little longer, the buns will be steamed soon."
As he was talking, Ping'er was already shouting outside at the top of his voice: "Mom, the bun is ready!"
When Sister Qi heard this, she agreed and hurriedly ran out. I thought about it and suddenly said, "Sister Qi, where is this place?"
Sister Qi paused at the door and looked back at me: "This is Yangzhou."
.
Looking back, I have experienced so many things this time when I went south. In order to enter Yangzhou, I took poison and fought with the government. Until now, the poison on my body has not yet been relieved. However, a nun was brought into Yangzhou by a nun in a coma. It is really helpless and funny.
Fate is so cute to tease people.
But when he smiled, he immediately pulled his face and felt a stinging pain.
I frowned and subconsciously reached out and touched my face. I wondered if it was because I scratched my cheeks when I fainted before. I felt that the uneven areas became more swollen and sensitive. After just touching them, my whole body was shaking so much pain.
At this moment, I remembered what Alan said to me.
This poison is extremely poisonous!
If there is no detoxification in a month, I will destroy more than my face...
When I thought of this, I couldn't help but tremble for a moment-I had to find Alan earlier!
No matter how many life I have experienced, I will never allow myself to die in this situation. What's more, I should be not far from my son!
After a while, Sister Qi had already brought in a tray of buns. Ping'er and Erya also followed him in, holding two bowls of turbid noodle soup with Youxing'er floating in her hands. She stood by the table and smiled and said, "There is nothing good at home, let's have some cushion first."
I was really hungry when I walked over with gratitude and the four of them sat at the table and started eating. The buns made by Qisao were very delicious, with thin skin and large filling. The delicious soup immediately poured out after biting it, leaving a fragrance on my mouth. As I ate it, I couldn't help but praise: "Sister Qisao, your skills are really good."
Sister Qi just smiled and waved her hand, but Ping'er next to her raised her voice: "My mother's craftsmanship is the best in this street."
“This street?”
I was puzzled for a moment before I heard the Qisila say, "Our family sells buns."
"oh……"
I looked down at the half-bitten bun in my hand, and my heart also turned around. My sister-in-law's house was not affordable at first sight. She lived here and disturbed her no matter what. In addition, she had to make plans early.
Sister Qi seemed to be very clever. Seeing that I was ecstatic at the bun in my hand, she said, "Ah, don't think too much. The nun left some money for me before leaving." Speaking of this, her face turned slightly red and she said shyly: "Actually, it's not necessary to accept money from their monks, but our family - you have seen it, there is nothing we can do."
I felt even more embarrassed when she said this, "Sister-in-law Qi, I'm causing you trouble."
"Oh, don't say this."
She waved her hand and grabbed a bun in front of me: "Eat more."
I agreed, lowered my head and took a bite of the bun, my eyes a little sour.
As before, the most beautiful flowers bloomed on the poorest land. These poor people can have a gentle and kind heart. I have also met people who support me to live and are willing to live better. They are as simple as the seventh sister-in-law, but now-
What about him? What about him if he is injured and still bears sin?
When I thought of this, I couldn't help but feel a little stuffy in my chest. The delicious bun just now became difficult to swallow. I only held half of the bun in my hand and didn't say anything. Erya beside me looked at me cleverly, knelt on the stool and delivered the soup bowl to my hand: "You have some soup."
I looked down at the girl. She was so old and very sensible and could take care of people. It was probably what people often say, poor children should be the first to be a family. Looking at her big round eyes, I felt a warm feeling in my heart: "Thank you."
Sister Qi looked at her daughter and seemed to be very satisfied. She smiled at me and said, "By the way, I don't know what your name is."
"Me?" I hesitated for a moment: "My name is A Qing."
"A Qing. How could you—uh——”
Seeing that she was a little difficult to speak, I also knew what Sister Qi meant. My face was so scary that I was already scary and had injuries on my body. I was rescued by a nun again. Although she took me in kindly, she had to inquire clearly to avoid causing trouble.
However, since I have entered Yangzhou City, I know that it is temporarily safe.
So I answered her, "I met a bandit on the road, and as for my face - I was sick, that's it."
"I'm sick, oh, I need to treat it earlier." Sister Qi said, and said with concern: "You are sick, why are you still going out? Do your family don't care about you?"
"I, my family is not around."
"Then what are you doing in Yangzhou?"
"..." I looked down at the second girl who was kneeling on the stool, blinked her big eyes and said softly: "I'm here to find my daughter."
"Look for a daughter?"
"Well, my daughter is in Jiangnan," she looked at her mother-in-law in surprise and added: "Jiangnan, I want to cross the river to find her."
After hearing what I said, for some reason, Sister Qi's face became a little solemn.
I couldn't help but wonder: "Sister-in-law Qi, what's wrong?"
Qisan clamped the bun in her hand: "You want to cross the river?"
