tired spring return

The summer is hot and the vegetation is lush.

Pei Minzhi and Feng Chun put on clean coarse cloth bunts, each carried a bamboo basket, and went up the mountain together to gather herbs.

Because they have always abided by their promise to provide medical treatment to the villagers for free, each of the three big men in their family is more cash-strapped than the other.Although such a self-sufficient rural life, coupled with the enthusiastic care of the villagers, there are basically no expenses and expenses.However, Pei Minzhi had to make some plans for the future life full of unknowns.They should at least reserve some silver taels for emergencies.

For a person who has been sculpted by life, the cautiousness of taking one step and watching three steps has already become a deep-rooted habit of dealing with things.

In the eyes of others, Mr. Pei is laughing and joking all day long, and seems to have no ambitions and lives like a wild crane.Who knew that what this person consciously shouldered was a burden that a young man of his age should never bear.Whether it was the life he lived on in the past or the wandering around now, for the people around him who gave his sincerity, he never dared to let go of the slightest slack in his heart.

After thinking about it, the only way to make money is to concoct some herbs and sell them in the city.

Wild herbs rooted deep in the mountains are of high quality.Since they moved, the weather has turned warm rapidly, and Pei Minzhi and Feng Chun have gone to the mountains to run several times.Although the harvest is not rich, it has given them a little way.As long as you are brave enough to plunge into the remote and steep place deep in the mountain, you will always gain something.Xie Bo is too old to go up the mountain, so he is also willing to help them arrange and dry the collected herbs, and then ask the village chief to help call porters to sell them in the city.

On this day, the sun was beautiful and the wind was mild, taking advantage of the fact that the sun was not so strong, Pei Minzhi took Feng Chun out early.They entered the mountain with ease, and the two of them were full of energy. They refused to stop easily when they walked, and kept heading towards the steep and inaccessible place.Along the way, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the scenery is picturesque, and there are beauties around.Pei Minzhi chatted and laughed with Feng Chun, only felt that his body was as light as a swallow, his feet were like the wind, and it would be easy to turn over a few hills.

However, unlike Mr. Pei when he was young and strong, Feng Chun's body suffered a lot over the years.Although on the surface he remained calm and forced himself to keep up with Pei Minzhi's footsteps, the atmosphere inside was already chaotic.Fortunately, he couldn't respond to Pei Minzhi aloud, and Pei Minzhi was already used to his quietness, otherwise those turbid and heavy breaths would make people notice something strange.He wore a straw hat with his head down, covering his pale face that was sweating profusely, as well as his stubborn expression of struggling with his frail and broken body.

Yes, no matter how much hardship I have suffered before, this little fatigue is not worth mentioning at all.

One mountain, two mountains, walk again and again.Although Pei Minzhi was considerate in every way, he was always half a step ahead of him along the way.Cutting off the vines blocking the road for him, driving away annoying mosquitoes for him, and carefully reminding every dangerous place, trying to walk beside him to protect him, but Feng Chun's footsteps became more and more vain.

After such a difficult journey, Pei Minzhi turned to remind him again.

"Xiao Chun'er, be careful there are stones ahead."

The warm voice agitated Feng Chun's weak eardrums and turned into a noisy hum.It was clearly close to my ear, but Feng Chun couldn't hear it clearly.

It seems that the extreme weakness of the body caused the old problem of tinnitus to occur again.

Feng Chun eagerly raised his face and stared at his lips, trying to figure out what Pei Minzhi said.As a result, he was unavoidably tripped by a stone and staggered, his weak legs were no longer under control, and he was about to fall to the ground.Pei Minzhi leaned forward quickly and wrapped his arms around his slender waist with one hand.Feng Chun's face fell directly on Pei Minzhi's warm chest.

After a period of dizziness, Feng Chun found that his lower back was tightly clasped, and the warmth from his hands penetrated through the thin material, pressing against his skin.Feng Chun couldn't help shaking, raised his head in a panic, and met Pei Minzhi's eyes.

"Xiao Chun'er, are you okay? Why do you look so bad?"

The straw hat fell off, and someone saw his weakness and exhaustion thoroughly, so Feng Chun struggled desperately to get out.

Pei Minzhi's heart ached, she only hated herself for busying herself on the road and ignoring Feng Chun's physical condition.I had no choice but to quickly unload the backpack on his shoulders, find a fairly flat stone that was warmed by the sun, and press him down to rest.

Feng Chun kept resenting his uselessness in his heart, but if he continued in this state, he might drag Pei Minzhi even more.It's better to sit down and think about the countermeasures first.

The two sat side by side, looking up at the dense forest and the overlapping mountains.

It wasn't until Feng Chun's breathing subsided that Pei Minzhi handed him the water bottle and asked,

"Xiao Chun'er, you are not feeling well, so why are you gritting your teeth and holding on? Are you still so scrupulous when you are with me?"

Feng Chun waved his hands anxiously while drinking water, almost choking.

"Drink slowly."

Pei Minzhi sighed inaudibly, not knowing whether he was comforting himself or enlightening others.

"Take your time, there is no rush for anything."

Feng Chun couldn't sit still after resting for a while. It was the peak season for the growth of medicinal herbs. Isn't it a pity?Not to mention that resting here for a while won't solve the fundamental problem at all. Based on what he knows about Pei Minzhi, if he stops, Pei Minzhi will definitely stay with him regardless. In this way, their trip will be completely in vain. up.

Feng Chun picked up a branch and wrote on the soil.

"My lord, it's not an option for you to accompany me like this. Why don't we split up? I'm not strong enough, so I'll stay nearby to collect herbs. My lord, you can go to other places to look for them. We'll meet up at this rock later." .”

"You can't walk anymore, we'll just gather medicine nearby, I won't leave you behind."

"But we have already picked nearby, so it's hard to get more."

"If you can't pick it, you won't pick it. Do you think I care about this?"

"Didn't you say that you wanted to sell money to Xie Bo to buy new clothes in the city? Didn't you mean to take me for a stroll in the city? The picking season for some herbs is only a few days. If we miss it, we can only wait." It's next year."

Just as Pei Minzhi was about to speak, he was interrupted by the twig dancing on the ground.

"If you don't agree, I'll go ahead by myself."

After writing, he threw away the branch in his hand, clapped his hands, and waited leisurely for Pei Minzhi's answer.

Pei Min knew that even if there were a hundred worries and a thousand reluctances in his heart, he knew from the bottom of his heart that what Feng Chun said was right.Instead of making him anxious by staying here, Mou must work harder and gather more, so that he can take Xiao Chun'er back to rest earlier.

"That's all right, then you must not go far away. You must put your body first, and look around here after you rest. It doesn't matter if you gather more or less, I will be there for everything. Wait for me to come back as soon as possible." join you."

"Stop rambling, go quickly." Feng Chun waved to him with a smile.

"Xiao Chun'er, now you have learned to despise me?" Pei Minzhi spoke with a trace of grievance, but there was tender doting hidden in his eyes.

Pei Minzhi put the bamboo basket on his back, turned around and started on the road.He has a strong figure, and he can go far in just a few steps.

"Son!"

Feng Chun yelled anxiously, but he didn't make any sound, but Pei Minzhi really heard it, and immediately turned his head to look at him.

"what?"

"!"

Feng Chun's heart trembled, and he was stunned for a few seconds before he came back to his senses, trotted towards him, and stuffed more than half of the water and dry food into his arms.

"Young master, be careful all the way."

"Okay, wait for me to come back."
