Splendid Twins

Doctor Xin was called up and came to the old hospital with a medicine box. After a thorough inspection, he said solemnly:

"It looks like a blow. Let's ask the town doctor to take a look tomorrow."

"Servant attack?"

"This is a disease that makes one paralyzed in bed..."

"Oh my God, I have a miserable life..."

Mrs. Si couldn't accept this kind of stimulation. She lay on the side of the bed and cried to the sky. Since ancient times, most people who suffered from stroke waited to die in bed. How could an old woman like her take care of it?

The village chief looked at Old Man Si, who was lying on the bed with his eyes open, with a frown on his face and a serious expression:

"Is there really no solution?"

Doctor Xin wiped the silver needle on his hand and said, "The vital energy was first weakened and then the evil wind entered the body, commonly known as a stroke. The rest depends on fate..."

Almost all the villagers gathered in the yard waiting for the result. After hearing what Doctor Xin said, their faces changed slightly. They sighed and were secretly frightened. People should still do more good deeds, in case retribution comes one day...

The village chief glanced at the house full of women and walked outside and shouted:

"Don't stand there, go back."

"Village chief, why don't you call the second brother back? My father is in this state, and it's just me and my mother..."

Wang was still terrified. How could she, a daughter-in-law, take care of her father-in-law? Besides, the reason why her father-in-law was like this was because of that little bitch!

"You, you are confused. The relationship has been severed and the case has been reported to the county government. Don't you know?"

The village chief stood outside the door and said to Wang with a sullen face, "There is not a single sensible person in this family!"

"Okay, you two take care of it tonight. Let the eldest and the third son come back tomorrow. Your father is already in this state. You should discuss how to take care of him afterwards."

After saying that, he followed the villagers and left, leaving Mrs. Si and Wang staring at each other. In addition, Old Man Si had already closed his eyes. He couldn't move his whole body, only his eyes were still flexible...

The next day, although there was sunshine in the sky, it seemed particularly cold and lonely. When Si Yao got up, Liu Niang was sewing a leather jacket. Seeing her come out of the house, she stood up and said in a low voice:

"Yaoyao, your grandfather, Si Yao's grandfather, had a stroke last night!"

Si Yao raised her eyebrows: "Really?"

"There are people coming in and out of the old courtyard right now. Aunt Huang just said that Si Yao has also returned, and brought back a carriage full of goodies."

"He's rich."

"I heard that he is not studying now and is working as an accountant in some building."

After saying this, Liu Niang picked up the needle and thread in her hand again. She had been busy sewing winter clothes for the whole family these days. Si Yao spoke while washing her face:

"These have nothing to do with us now, mother, let's live our own lives."

"Mother knew, so your father didn't go to the old house either. He went up the mountain early in the morning to get some hay for the donkey."

After the donkey was pulled back from the old courtyard, Si Yao was afraid that someone would covet it again, so she tied it directly behind the thatched house. Later, when she went back to the old courtyard, she pulled the donkey to the village chief's house to raise it. Now that it has moved into the new house, the donkey naturally has a new shed. These days, her father has been complaining that the donkey has lost a lot of weight since it came back.

As the mother and daughter were talking, someone knocked on the door. Si Yao opened it and saw that it was Ling Feng. She smiled and said:

"come on in."

"Excuse me."

Ling Feng was still dressed in black, with a few bundles on the horse's back. Si Yao invited people into the courtyard. Liu Niang stood up a little awkwardly, and Ling Feng hurriedly saluted:

"I met my aunt."

Liu Niang was a little embarrassed to speak: "Hurry up and sit down. I'll go to the kitchen to check."

After saying that, Si Yao left and handed Ling Feng a cup of hot tea:

"Drink something to warm yourself up."

"Thank you."

Ling Feng took the tea and drank it all. Si Yao went to the room and came out with a box in her hand. She walked up to Ling Feng and opened it:

"Here are some pills for you to take to your young master. I have marked how to use them. I can't help him with anything else."

"I would like to thank you on behalf of the prince."

"How many days will it take you to reach the border?"

"It would take twenty-five days on a fast horse, and it would take more than a month if it were delayed on the road."

Si Yao was a little surprised when she heard this. She thought Ling Feng must have suffered a lot along the way.

"You have worked hard, why don't you have a simple meal at home before leaving?"

"Thank you for your kindness, young lady. I won't eat. There are still a few people waiting outside the village. If we leave early, we can stay in an inn tonight."

Seeing this, Si Yao had no choice but to nod:

"Okay, then I'll take care of the things."

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Niang came in carrying large and small bags. Si Yao put the stuffed sausages into the refrigerator in the space at night and froze them. She took them out during the day and hung them in a cool and ventilated place. This way they can be preserved for more than ninety days. Besides, the military camps are full of men with big appetites, so these things will not last for a few days.

"This, this is a bit much!"

"Not much, not much. I packed these things in two portions, one for Yaoyao's adoptive brother, and the other for you."

Ling Feng was stunned when he heard what Liu Niang said. He was an orphan who had been trained by the Duke since he was a child and then handed over to the Crown Prince to work. Although he had enough food and drink, no one thought of him specially. A warm feeling welled up in his heart. Si Yao knew Ling Feng's situation and smiled and said:

"Don't just stand there like an idiot, help now."

"Aunt, let me do it, don't do anything."

Ling Feng reacted and hurriedly picked them up. Si Yao also helped to take two and weighed them:

"Mom, what are you wearing?"

"They are all bacon. Your aunt brought a few jars of shredded radish a few days ago, and I also packed them in. I didn't have time to collect the skins, so I made a few pairs of wrist guards and knee pads. It's freezing cold, but we are sitting in the warm house, while those people are enduring at the border..."

Liu Niang kept mumbling while cleaning up, and Si Yao sighed inwardly as she listened:

Her mother was a soft-hearted person. She would return the favor to others if they were kind to her. When Ling Feng was ordered to bring something back, she would always remember to pack a portion for him. However, the advantage of being soft-hearted was that she was easily hurt...

Ling Feng unloaded the baggage on the horse's back and rearranged it. The baggage was piled on top of the baggage and hung on it. Si Yao couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"Where are you sitting?"

"It's okay, someone will take it when you get out."

Ling Feng led the horse and bowed to Liu Niang:

"Aunt, please take care of yourself. I will come to visit you next time."

Liu Niang waved her hand: "You too, be careful on the road."

"move."

After sending Ling Feng away, Liu Niang took the needle and thread and said to Si Yao:

"You stay home and play. I'm going to your Aunt Huang's house to watch her fry melon seeds. She said she's going to sell them in town in the next two days."

"Oh."

Si Yao closed the door and prepared to go back to her room, but before she had taken a few steps, the door was knocked again. Thinking that her mother had forgotten something, she went over to open it, but she didn't expect it to be Si Yao!

"What are you here for?"

"Cousin, no, I should call you Si Yao now."

Si Yao's outfit today looked just like a young master of a powerful family in the capital. He wore a jade crown and brocade clothes. His facial features were handsome, but the way he looked at people made Si Yao feel disgusted!

"Shut up if you don't want to get beaten!"

"We are siblings after all. Yaoyao, you are too cold. I finally came back and I have to care about my brothers and sisters."

Si Yao couldn't help wanting to get closer to the beautiful Si Yao when he saw her in front of him. In the past, he didn't dare to have any improper thoughts because of his cousins' reputation. But now that he knew the truth, some thoughts in his heart were completely free. He casually comforted his family with a few words, found an excuse and came over here.

"Stop talking nonsense and go take care of your grandfather!"

Si Yao was about to close the door with a stern face. Seeing this, Si Yao was about to squeeze in through the door, but unexpectedly an arm stretched out from the side and pushed him hard. When he turned around, it was Lu Yuan!

Seeing him staring at him expressionlessly, Si Yao remembered the last time this man went crazy and beat him up, and felt somewhat guilty:

"what are you doing?"

Lu Yuan was still staring at him. Facing those cold eyes, Si Yao felt timid unconsciously. He forced a smile and said to Si Yao:

"I'll come back another day."

Then he ran away, and his back looked like he was fleeing in panic!
