A ragged cub at the beginning

Tang Xu washed the mushrooms and stuffed them into the chicken's stomach, wrapped them with large leaves, covered them with mud, and buried them under the fire. Tang Yao had brought back a musk deer from somewhere and was about to skin it, but Tang Ling said, "Go downstream and finish it before coming back."

"Hmm?" Tang Yao looked at the children who were curiously surrounding him and understood. When did Little Feather become so soft-hearted? He shook his head and smiled, then went downstream to avoid the children and came back to put branches on and start roasting.

Qiyue and Jiarui were washing peaches when they suddenly spotted a small fish in the stream, "Fish! Fish!"

"Be careful not to fall. We have no clothes to change into." Tang Xu turned around and said, "Dandan! Especially you!"

When Fang Zijun heard this, he stuck out his tongue and put his shoes back on.

"Have you washed the peaches, July? Mom wants to eat peaches." Tang Xu said while roasting the rabbit.

"It's washed! I'll give it to mom!" July came over with a peach in both hands. Their hands were small and they were not very agile, so they played while washing. After such a long time, each of them had washed a peach.

"Mine, mine is for my aunt to eat!" Jiarui looked left and right and handed it to Tang Ling.

"Thank you, my baby!" Tang Xu pulled July to sit beside him and gave July a bite first.

Tang Ling imitated her and touched Jiarui's head, "Thank me, me, Jiarui." The word "treasure" was a little hot to her lips, so she couldn't say it and directly stuffed the peach into Jiarui's mouth.

"I'll wash it myself!" Fang Zijun grabbed a peach and while washing it he went to look at the fish. He looked back and quietly took off his shoes.

"Fang Zijun! Don't go into the water!" Yunniang was also washing peaches and had noticed that Fang Zijun was trying to do something bad.

"Dandan?" Tang Xu looked over.

"I didn't go into the water. I just wanted to wash my feet." Fang Zijun also believed it himself, "Yes, I washed my feet."

"The mountain spring water is icy cold. It will make you sick. Come here." Tang Xu frowned.

"Okay." Fang Zijun put on his shoes, glanced at the stream reluctantly, and took a bite of the peach in his hand. "It smells so good. Is the meat ready?"

"It's coming soon."

Tang Yao had a faint smile on his face as he cut the musk deer and sprinkled salt on them.

Tang Ling silently washed a few peaches, gave one to each person, and ate them while waiting for the barbecue.

"It smells so good." Tang Xu sniffed, and July fed her a bite of peach.

After eating peaches, Tang Xu sang nursery rhymes with the children.

Two rabbits, a musk deer, and a chicken were all eaten up. This was all thanks to the brothers Tang Yao and Tang Qing, who were really good eaters.

After eating a full meal, I went home with the remaining peaches and mushrooms.

The carriage was getting quieter and quieter. Tang Ling lifted the curtain and took a look. Tang Xu held Qiyue in his left hand and Yunniang in his right hand. The three of them were sleeping soundly. Fang Zijun fell to the ground and snored. Jiarui held Tang Qing's arm, and his mouth was open, saliva flowing out. Tang Qing didn't realize that his sleeves were wet, and he also fell asleep leaning against the carriage.

"Are they all asleep?" Tang Yao guessed it when he heard the breathing sounds in the carriage becoming longer and more even.

"Well, go slower." Tang Ling lowered the curtain.

"Tang Xu is getting married at the end of the month." Tang Yao said.

"Yeah." Tang Ling looked at Tang Yao, so what?

Tang Yao was so nervous that his whole body tensed up, and whispered, "Shall we get the marriage certificate?"

"Huh?" Tang Ling tilted his head in surprise and asked, "What did you say? Who wants to get a marriage certificate from you?"

So cute! Tang Yao was touched by her surprised look. His ears turned red and he said incoherently, "We, we, don't want to receive it?"

"Why do we need a marriage certificate?" Tang Ling asked.

"Then," Tang Yao was a little flustered, his mind working frantically, and he said, "My sister is married, so why don't we adopt one?"

Tang Ling frowned. Why not? Why? This question confused her.

Tang Yao observed her expression, and smiled when he saw her confused look. What does it matter whether she gets it or not? As long as he can always be by her side, does anything else matter? His feverish mind slowly calmed down, and he softened his voice and said, "It's okay if you don't get it. I will never leave you in this life."

Tang Ling looked into his eyes. She knew this look. Du Yun always looked at Tang Xu like this, but she had never faced him directly. At this moment, she felt that those eyes were like the drizzle in spring, light and floating, but no matter where she hid, she would get wet. She turned her head, her heartbeat in her chest was out of rhythm, and she felt a little uncomfortable. Suddenly, her mind recalled the days when he was away. She felt the same discomfort and always thought of him involuntarily. She quietly put away the blood-stained license plate. No matter how she washed it, it was dark red and had a bloody smell that was difficult to get rid of. But as long as she saw the plate, she would feel at ease.

Just like now, when he is around, Tang Ling always relaxes his guard unconsciously because he feels at ease.

When they were on a mission together, she rarely had to worry about anything. Tang Yao would take care of everything. Gathering intelligence, squatting, and formulating routes and plans. She only needed to act with him in the end and complete his requirements. After he disappeared, she often felt that things were not going well. The mission would not fail, but she would always be injured and in pain.

Will you never leave me in this life? That's great.

Thinking of this, Tang Ling looked forward and said softly, "Okay."

Tang Yao's lips curled up. How could this not be another kind of success? "Then I will always be with you."

"Okay." Tang Ling nodded.

The rickety carriage was like a big cradle, and it went all the way to the town. The bustling voices woke Tang Xu up. She yawned and found that her arms were numb and tingling, as if they had lost consciousness out of her body.

"Hiss~" She took a deep breath, "Sister, are we there yet?"

"Soon." Tang Ling replied.

"Qiyue, Yunniang, wake up." Tang Xu moved his equally stiff legs, but kicked something soft. He looked down and saw that it was Fang Zijun. How did this kid sleep on the floor? He was really different. "Dandan, it's raining."

"Huh? Collect the clothes?" Fang Zijun muttered, rubbed his eyes and sat up.

"Jia Rui!" Tang Qing looked at the soaked sleeves. The cold sleeves stuck to his arms. How disgusting! They were all saliva! "Get up!"

"Hmm? Hmm?" Jia Rui half opened his eyes with difficulty, "What's wrong?"

"Drool! Your saliva is flowing on my hand!" Tang Qing saw that he sat up and pulled his arm away.

"What's wrong?" July rubbed his eyes and looked over.

"What saliva? Am I drooling?" Yunniang touched her mouth, but there was nothing.

Tang Qing jumped off the carriage angrily, trotted all the way, and climbed over the courtyard wall to change clothes.

He's still a little mysophobic. Tang Xu smiled gloatingly, then revealed a mask of pain, "Hiss~ha~it hurts..." His arm was numb and tingling, it hurt so much. "Brother Tang Yao, I'll go down and walk for a while, my legs are not good anymore."

Hearing the sound, Tang Yao stopped by the roadside, and Tang Xu came out trembling with a hunched back. If Tang Ling hadn't pulled him, he would have almost fallen headfirst.

"Mom, what's wrong?" July followed worriedly.

"It's okay, it's okay," Tang Xu stamped his feet, and the stinging pain slowly dissipated. The other children also jumped down and followed.

Arriving at Guixiang Street, Tang Xu saw the man in the crowd. He was too conspicuous. He was completely different from the people around him. He looked like a finely modeled character in a 3D game that was cut out and pasted into a 2D game. Tang Xu murmured, "Is this a face that can be grown by a human?"

Tang Ling took a look and said, "From Medicine King Valley."

"Medicine King Valley?" Tang Xu retracted his gaze. "Could it be that Banxia had shaken someone here? Didn't Xiaonan wake up?"

"It shouldn't be that fast. I'll go ask." Tang Yao drove the carriage over, "Doctor Pei."

"It's you?" Pei Wushu looked at him, "Where's my junior sister?"

"I'm here. Get in the car and I'll take you there." Tang Yao said to Tang Ling and took people to the Du family.

“Big Brother! Wuuwuwu…you’re here!” Sun Banxia threw herself into Pei Wushu’s arms. The tension she had felt for the past few days finally relaxed. A few pitiful tears hung on her haggard face. “Big Brother, I can’t cure it, and reading books can’t cure it either.”

"Extremely serious internal injuries?" Pei Wushu showed an understanding expression, and touched her dark circles with heartache, "Nothing, Senior Brother is here. Haven't slept for a few days? Go and rest."

"Well, I'm so sleepy." Sun Banxia closed his eyes as soon as he finished speaking.

"Here, her room is over here." Butler Qi also felt sorry for the little girl, but he couldn't persuade her.

After settling Sun Banxia down, Pei Wushu asked, "Where is the patient? Take me to see him."

Butler Qi took him to Jiang Xiaonan's room. Jiang Xiaodong was guarding his sister with swollen eyes.

"Move aside, let me take a look." Pei Wushu pulled him away, put his hand on Xiaonan's pulse, and stretched out his hand to massage her chest to check. He turned around and took out the needle bag from the medicine box he carried with him and began to give acupuncture.

Jiang Xiaodong stood aside nervously. He heard that this was Sister Banxia's senior brother. Sister, will you be able to cure me this time?

While waiting for the needle to be removed, Pei Wushu stuffed a pill into the little girl's mouth.

Seeing that he was idle, Jiang Xiaodong asked hesitantly, "Uncle, will my sister die?"

"No, you will wake up after the needle is removed." Pei Wushu glanced at him, "You need to rest."

"Wu... I, I'll wait until my sister wakes up." For some reason, Jiang Xiaodong believed him very much. The heavy stone in his heart fell to the ground, and the worries of the past few days were swept away. He couldn't control his tears at all, and he covered his mouth and cried.

Pei Wushu gave some advice and said no more. A quarter of an hour later, he pulled out the silver needle.

Jiang Xiaonan on the bed moved and slowly opened his eyes.

"Xiaonan! Xiaonan! You're awake! You're finally awake! Brother is so scared!" Jiang Xiaodong rushed to the bedside, not daring to touch his sister, and choked up as he told of the fear he had felt in recent days.

"Don't touch her. Don't move or get up." After giving the instructions, Pei Wushu wrote down a prescription and walked out.

Madam Du and Tang Xu were waiting at the door. "Brother Banxia, ​​my husband's surname is Du. I have heard of your great name for a long time."

"Madam Du, just call me Xiao Pei. Thank you all for your care, Banxia." Pei Wushu bowed.

"Banxia is a capable child with a good temper. Everyone who sees her likes her. Besides, it's not so much that we have to take care of her, but it will cause more trouble to her." said Mrs. Du.

"Curing illnesses and saving lives is a doctor's duty. Madam Du, there's no need to be so polite." Pei Wushu said.

The two exchanged pleasantries. Tang Xu waited for them to finish talking before finally interrupting and asking, "How's Xiaonan? Is he okay?"

"It's okay. My junior sister has been in the valley all the time. She hasn't seen many seriously injured people, so she's not good at this. I happen to be an expert at this. This injury looks serious, but it's not incurable." Pei Wushu said.

Everyone finally felt relieved.
