The village chief's home is at the west end of the village.
Although he is the village chief, when he arrived at the door, he saw that the layout of the house did not look like that of a wealthy family.
It stands to reason that Yujiacun is only a day's journey from Xianzhou, the seat of Jiangnan Province. The head of a village cannot live in only three mud-tile houses. The kitchen is also leaking and somewhat dilapidated.
Mu Rong frowned slightly, and the village chief naturally saw it. He said with a smile: "My mother-in-law left early, and there was no one to take care of her, which made the nobles laugh."
Seeing what he said, coupled with the unfamiliarity of the people here, not to mention Chu He's serious injury that needed to be dealt with, Mu Rong didn't say much: "The village chief is too modest."
The carriage stopped outside the village chief's house, and Wen Yao was the first to jump out of the carriage.
Suddenly a woman emerged from the car, and the village chief was startled, as if he was frightened.
Before he could speak, Wen Yao bowed slightly and saluted, then turned around and helped his master get out of the car.
When Xu Rongrong came out wearing a goose-yellow feather gauze crane cloak, the night wind blew off her hood, revealing her beautiful face.
The village chief choked all his words in his throat and could not make any sound.
Seeing this, Mu Rong subconsciously raised his hand and put the hood back on for Xu Rongrong.
Then he said in a low voice: "It's cold outside, come inside quickly."
It was because of these words that the village chief came to his senses. He quickly lowered his head and led the master and servant into the main room.
Then he went to the mud-roofed house next door and called his boy out: "I'm going to stay with Grandpa tonight. Our house has to be freed up for distinguished guests to stay."
The boy from the village chief's family looked to be eight or nine years old, with a gray face. He was wearing an old coat, and the cotton hair exposed in the damaged areas had turned gray. Underneath was a pair of baggy cotton trousers, which were wrinkled and did not fit well. .
After listening to his father's words, he sniffed and said, "Dad, I'm hungry."
"Go to grandpa's house to eat." After the village chief said, he hurriedly kicked his boy out.
As soon as he turned around, he saw the Luo Xiao mother and daughter coming together. He was startled again and froze in front of the door of the house.
Until his father, the old patriarch of the Yu family, came over tremblingly on crutches and woke him up: "Why are you stupid? Why don't you come into the house to entertain? Ask the aunt next door to come over and help."
The village chief said hurriedly: "Dad, there are several female relatives among them. It is not appropriate to let too many people know."
When the old patriarch heard this, he was also startled.
Then he nodded: "Then go to the kitchen and boil some water. It's such a cold day and you can't even have a pot of hot water."
He shook the old tea can in his hand, which contained some old tea leaves: "At least make some tea for me."
"Hey! I'll go right away!" After the village chief said that, he opened the kitchen door.
After hesitating for a moment, the old patriarch entered the main room.
The moment he saw Xu Rongrong, he was slightly stunned.
"Thank you for taking us in." Xu Rongrong thanked him softly.
"Where are you? Why don't we help each other when we are out?" The old patriarch put the tea can on the mottled and peeling paint table tremblingly. "It's just that we in a remote country have nothing to entertain, so we can only invite you all." It's just one night, if we can get up early tomorrow morning and go on the road, we can reach the county ahead by noon."
Xu Rongrong frowned slightly, but she didn't say anything. She just walked over and bowed lightly to the old patriarch.
The old patriarch didn't dare to accept it and quickly avoided it.
The village chief also brought hot water in at this time. He did not dare to look at the face of the woman in the room, lowered his head and said: "It's cold today, please drink some hot water to warm yourself up first."
Wen Yao smiled and stepped forward to take it. When Xu Rongrong nodded, he took out a few pieces of broken silver and put them in the village chief's hand.
"It's us who are causing trouble tonight, making it difficult for the village chief to return home. This is the accommodation fee for our group. Please don't dislike it, the chief and the village chief."
There was not much silver, about five taels, which was enough for a family to eat for half a month.
The village chief glanced at his father and saw that he had no objection, so he put it away.
The old patriarch smiled and said: "Although he is the village chief, his family is very small. Now it's just him and a boy and a half. I live across the corner. They can stay at my place for one night. It's not a nuisance." , but it cost you money.”
Seeing his sincerity, Xu Rongrong continued: "To be honest, because he was in a hurry, my brother missed his footing and fell into a ditch and was injured. I wonder if there is a doctor here who is good at trauma. We also want to invite him to come and take a look. .”
"Injured? You can go to Zhuangzi next door, then..." Before the village chief finished speaking, the old patriarch coughed heavily, and the village chief suddenly fell silent.
The old patriarch glanced at Xu Rongrong: "Don't listen to him. There are doctors in Zhuangzi, but they are very expensive. They never come to the village to treat us common people. If your brother just has an ordinary fall, I can call him The clan doctor came over to take a look. He had previously treated injuries for the sergeants in the army, but he had retired due to injuries sustained in previous years."
There is a military doctor!Xu Rongrong was overjoyed when he heard this: "It's so good. Thank you very much, Patriarch."
"It's just..." The old patriarch seemed a little embarrassed to say, "It's just that when he comes later, the female relatives please stay away."
"Why is this?" Xu Rongrong was puzzled.
The old patriarch smiled and said: "The people in the village have not seen much of the world. I am afraid of disturbing all the distinguished guests. Please forgive me."
Seeing that he was unwilling to go into details, not to mention that under such circumstances, he was willing to ask the clan doctor to come out to treat a stranger's injury, which was extremely rare. Xu Rongrong no longer forced and agreed quickly.
Upon seeing this, the old patriarch gave a few words of warning and then left with the village chief's son.
Because the hall was cramped, Mu Rong had been standing outside the door with others while they were talking.
The father and son left, seemingly having some dispute:
"Dad... I can't hide it."
"Shut up, it's so late, how do you know you can't hide it?"
"I'm afraid it will be a matter of time..."
"You can't push people into a pit of fire!"
"..."
The following words could not be heard clearly because they were too far away.
Mu Rong nuzzled at Mu Ai: "Follow that father and son and see what they do."
Then, he ordered Mu Lu: "Go and find out about Zhuangzi they were talking about just now."
There is something weird everywhere here...
The two subordinates each received their errands and left. Mu Rong returned to the carriage, opened the door and looked at Chu He, who was lying quietly in the carriage.
Thinking of Xu Rongrong's extremely natural word "brother" during the conversation just now, his eyebrows jumped slightly.
The enemy who was so jealous in his previous life has taken advantage of him in this life.
but……
Brother, that's quite good.
It's better than any other identity.
So, with the help of Shu Qing, Mu Rong carried his "brother" into the room.
The mud-roofed room on the right side of the main room looks more spacious and cleaner than the other one. It must be the room where the village chief lives daily. There are two wooden beds in it.
One of them has been cleaned up by Luo Xiao and covered with a blanket.
Chu He lay down with his eyes closed, his breathing a little more stable than in the afternoon.
Shu Qing took his pulse again, then checked the wounds, and said: "Chu Guard has several long wounds. Although the bleeding has stopped now, if he wants to heal quickly, he still needs suturing. I hope the clan doctor mentioned by the old clan leader can This method."
"Since you are a military doctor, it is normal to suture wounds, so don't worry." Mu Rong's voice was not loud, but he was very sure. In such a strange winter night, his words made people feel particularly reassuring.
Xu Rongrong nodded, and then asked: "When will he wake up?"
Shu Qing shook his head: "If you don't have a fever tonight, you will be awake in three or two days."
Mrs. Luo Xiao came in with hot water, wrung out the handkerchief and wiped Chu He's face.
Luo Yuqi followed to help. Looking at the hideous wounds on Chu He's body, she was a little anxious: "Why hasn't that doctor come yet..."
Wen Yao also felt that it took a long time, so she asked her young lady: "Did the slaves just give me too little money, so they were neglectful?"
Xu Rongrong shook his head and comforted: "We are here for the first time. We are not familiar with the place and we are with injured people. Naturally, we cannot leak money easily. A few taels of silver will not only prevent us from losing our identity, but also prevent others from giving birth to others." There is no problem with your mind."
She patted Wen Yao's hand: "Just wait patiently..."
After a while, Mu Ai came back and whispered outside the door: "They are coming."
The old clan leader did not break his promise. He went to the clan doctor himself and brought the person over.
Because of the cold weather in the dark night and the inconvenience of his legs and feet, he was delayed for some time on the road.
The clan doctor looked to be in his 30s. Before he entered, Xu Rongrong and Wen Yao took refuge in the next room as agreed.
Luo Xiao took her daughter to the kitchen.
It was such a cold day and after a lot of shock, it was natural to have a hot meal, so she wanted to take advantage of this time to prepare dinner for everyone.
The village chief’s kitchen has limited ingredients, but fortunately there is white flour.
Luo Xiao rolled out the noodles and sprinkled them with chives after they were cooked. The fragrant aroma made people salivate.
"It smells so good!" A boy poked his head into the kitchen, saw Luo Xiao and her daughter, and exclaimed, "There are women! There are beautiful women!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a girl stopped him and took her away: "Don't talk nonsense."
Luo Yuqi felt strange, so she went to the door and looked out when the girl turned around.
Just this look back made Luo Yuqi scream and fall to the ground.
Luo Xiao dropped the shovel in his hand and stepped forward quickly: "What's wrong?"
Luo Yuqi was shocked and threw herself into her mother's arms: "Mom! That sister... only has one eye."
Although he is the village chief, when he arrived at the door, he saw that the layout of the house did not look like that of a wealthy family.
It stands to reason that Yujiacun is only a day's journey from Xianzhou, the seat of Jiangnan Province. The head of a village cannot live in only three mud-tile houses. The kitchen is also leaking and somewhat dilapidated.
