Fast through the cannon fodder, she shines brightly

Chapter 13 Cannon Fodder Farm Girl (13)

Mu Wan looked around and saw several wild taro plants growing beside the road, with oval leaves and lush green.

She went over and carefully snapped off the two leaves, large enough to completely cover the contents of the basket, without getting her hands wet with the oozing juice.

Mu Wan held the other leaf on top of his head, which could be used as a crude version of an umbrella.

About ten meters away, strings of raindrops hit the ground, turning the dry ground into mud, and the heavy rain gradually poured down.

The leaves on Mu Wan's head were of no help at all, her shoulders were soon soaked, and her hair was sticking to her body with wetness. When the wind blew, a slight chill spread, and if this continued, she would definitely catch a cold.

Mu Wan frowned tightly, stepped over a puddle, and was about to rush into the rain curtain, when suddenly the light dimmed, and an oil-paper umbrella appeared above her head, covering her whole body, blocking out the bean-sized raindrops. You can smell a nice light medicinal fragrance.

Mu Wan sniffed the familiar smell, looked sideways calmly, and saw the man beside him wearing a blue gown, thin and thin, but with a gentle temperament, it really was Ji Yan.

"Going to sell medicine again today?" Mu Wan asked with a smile. Ji Yan is a barefoot doctor in the village. Apart from treating the villagers on a daily basis, he also occasionally digs herbs in the mountains, concocts them and sells them in the town.

Ji Yan moved the umbrella to the side, and the knuckles of his fingers holding the handle of the umbrella were slender, and his brows and eyes slightly stretched, "I found two young ginseng plants a few days ago, and they sold for a good price."

The two walked side by side, because the umbrella surface was not big, the distance between the elbows was shortened, Ji Yan's heartbeat quietly accelerated, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his knuckles were clenched.

While carefully avoiding puddles, Mu Wan twisted her soaked sleeves. Fortunately, she was wearing dark clothes, so even if she got wet, she wouldn't be too embarrassed.

Ji Yan handed out a handkerchief from his sleeve, which also smelled of medicine.

Mu Wan paused and reached out to take it. If it was someone else, she would not be so familiar with it, but this person is Ji Yan. They have known each other since they were young, so they don't have to worry about so many rules and etiquette.

When she and Ji Yan first met, they were just two little Doudings. At that time, Ji Yan and his friends ran to pick wild fruits, but they accidentally lost their way. Children would naturally feel scared in a secluded environment, and Ji Yan was frightened. Wow, crying loudly, tears streaming down her fleshy cheeks.

Although she was only four years old at that time, she was an adult in her mind, so she calmly coaxed Ji Yan, took Ji Yan's hand and walked back to the village.

Since then, Ji Yan has always followed her, sending a small bouquet of wild flowers, a few wild fruits, and a few grains of caramel from time to time.

Later, Ji Yan became seriously ill and needed to recuperate at home. They gradually began to see each other less often, and the smiling figure was no longer seen under the almond tree at the door.

Mu Wan wiped the rain from her face, the handkerchief was already wet, she folded it and put it in the basket, ready to return it to Ji Yan after washing.

The sound of the rain was pattering, and the slippery muddy road was difficult to walk on. It took a lot of energy. Mu Wan gradually stopped talking. Considering Ji Yan's physique, she slowed down a little. But the mood gradually calmed down, and the scent of the medicine was also particularly fresh.

In the distance, someone was staggering towards with an umbrella, and the rain blurred his vision. Mu Wan looked intently and recognized that it was Liu Shi.

She hurriedly waved her hand and shouted, "Mom! I'm here."

Ms. Liu's footsteps were messy, and when she heard a familiar voice, she hurried forward, her eyes full of worry, "Awan, it's so cold, why did it suddenly rain today? Let's go back and have a bowl of ginger soup."
