Rebirth of the Guardian Cute Baby

Chapter 241 How to treat Madam Zhen's injuries?

It turned out that Madam Zhen had not spoken for three days since she woke up, and the old woman thought she could not speak.

Zhen Jing asked: "Has it been three days now?"

"Yes, you have been sleeping in my house for three days. During these three days, your sister only drank some water. I guess she was afraid that you would not wake up, so she wanted to go with you!"

The old lady shook her head as she spoke.

"What a stubborn and silly kid."

Zhen Jing woke up and didn't lie in bed anymore. She got up and said to the old woman embarrassedly: "Grandma, I'm a little hungry. Do you have anything to eat?"

The old lady went to bring a bowl of porridge. As Zhen Jing had been hungry for several days, she didn't dare to eat too much. She ate half a bowl and then fed half a bowl to Zhen's wife.

"Grandma, we two sisters are troubled by you!"

The old lady shook her head and smiled, "Young girl, you don't have to be so polite. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Although I am a farmer, I also believe in Buddhism! It is fate that we met."

The old woman took the washed clothes and said, "These are your sisters' clothes. You are a girl dressed as a boy, and your sister is wearing the clothes of a married woman. It is very difficult for you two children to pretend to be mother and son when going out!"

Zhen Jing wanted to speak, but the old woman stopped her and took out a small package, "These are your things, they are all here!" Zhen Jing picked up the package.

I don’t know what animal’s fur this small bag is made of, it’s very waterproof. Even when both of them were soaked, the things inside the bag didn’t get wet. This thing belongs to Madam Zhen.

The old woman said, "This small package is made of fish skin. Judging from the stitches and workmanship, it should be from the Jiangnan water village. You two don't look like you are from Jiangnan."

Zhen Jing blinked her innocent eyes and said, "This belongs to my sister. My sister was abandoned by her family when she was born. She was put in this package. Grandma, can you tell where the owner of this package is?"

The old woman shook her head and said, "Girl, I can only tell that this thing came from the Jiangnan water town. I can't tell where the owner is, so how can I tell where the owner is?"

Madam Zhen fell asleep after eating the porridge. She had been waiting for so long that the pain all over her body was numb. When she saw Han Yan finally woke up, she fell asleep with peace of mind.

Zhen Jing came to the farmyard and saw huge pumpkins and cute little gourds against the wall. A breath of nature came to her face. It was a very distant memory, her childhood. Zhen Jing felt that her memory was getting worse and worse. Many past events were blurred. The only thing she remembered clearly was her mission and task. She had to travel through it ninety-eight times. It was long and far away, making her feel like a prisoner doing hard labor.

Zhen Jing couldn't contact the system, and guessed that maybe it was because the system asked her to check the stored memory. She no longer expected the system to appear, and no longer hoped for the golden finger of time travel. If these time travel plans were made by her, then she must be very conceited and arrogant. If this plan was made by her opponent, then her ability must be feared by those people. Those are human beings, right?

Zhen Jing had no way of knowing.

She only stayed in this small courtyard for another day. The next morning, Zhen Jing left two taels of silver for the old woman, and left with Lady Zhen after dinner.

The old man who saved them drove a ox cart and sent them onto the boat. The old woman gave Zhen Jing two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes, both of which were boys' clothes. She said they were worn by her son before and she washed them clean. She asked Zhen Jing not to dislike them. She also found two sets of clothes that her son wore when he was a teenager for Zhen Jing.

The old woman said that her only son disappeared while hunting in the mountains. He has not returned for a month and she doesn’t know if he encountered any danger.

Lady Zhen happened to be awake, and after hearing what the old woman said, she asked the old woman to tell her son's birth date. The old woman didn't understand. Lady Zhen said, "I can tell fortunes, and I'll tell you if the child is still alive."

The old woman told her son's birth date skeptically.

Madam Zhen closed her eyes and calculated, and said that your son is not in danger and may come back today.

The old woman was very happy to hear this and hoped that what Madam Zhen said was true.

Madam Zhen smiled weakly, "It must be true, don't worry, good people will be rewarded, you are destined to enjoy happiness in your later years."

As a result, just as the old man had harnessed the ox cart, he saw a young man riding a fine horse coming towards him, waving his arms and shouting from a distance: "Mom and Dad, I'm back!"

Because they were in a hurry to catch a boat at the riverside, the old man was happy to see his son, but he drove away without stopping. The old woman pulled her son off the horse and looked him over to make sure he was not injured, and she cried with joy.

"As expected, the Buddha will bless us!"

The weather is very good today, with clear skies and cool autumn air. This is a cargo ship that the old man helped find. The owner of the ship found a corner in the warehouse to accommodate Zhen Jing and Zhen's wife.

The boat was sailing along the river with the wind. Zhen Jingcai asked, "Sister, haven't you forgotten the formulas you memorized?"

Madam Zhen's eyes sparkled: "No, it's even clearer now. The divination I just made was also correct."

Zhen Jing said happily: "That's great! Fortunately, you can recite it too. I don't remember anything now."

Madam Zhen said, "You are a child, you forget things quickly. When we settle down, I will find a way to let you go to school."

Madam Zhen has mentioned studying twice.

Zhen Jing suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Can girls also go to school?"

Madam Zhen was stunned for a moment: "Is it possible? You always said when we were young that women can also study. I still listen to you."

"I said that when I was a kid?"

Zhen Jing couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the person in this body used to be a time traveler?

There is no way to know this.

The girl named Han Yan now is her.

Madam Zhen couldn't move, and she had to ask Zhen Jing to feed her and help her turn over and wipe her body every day. She felt very sorry. She said with tears in her eyes:

"Han Yan, if you are too tired, just throw me into the river to feed the fish and go away! I might as well die than lie down all day and rely on you to take care of me!"

"Don't talk nonsense, you will definitely be fine."

Zhen Jing comforted her, saying that they had been drifting on the river for several days, and the guys on the boat said that it would take another half a month to reach the city.

Zhen Jing comforted her, saying that they had been floating on the river for several days, and the boatman said that it would take another half a month to reach the city. The formula that Zhen Niang had memorized did not include any information about healing, so Zhen Niang's injury could only heal slowly.

External injuries can be healed slowly, but internal injuries are very troublesome. Zhen Jing asked Lady Zhen to recall how she got injured when she entered the portal. Lady Zhen said that she knew nothing after she stepped in and did not remember being injured at all.

She said to herself, "That's probably a punishment from God! When I was a kid, the witches in the village who called people's souls were all physically disabled. They had to exchange some of their own things for a certain skill. Maybe I'm the same as them now?"

Zhen Jing also had this guess, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have taught you nonsense." She held Zhen Niang's hand and regretted it very much. Having any skills is not as good as having a healthy body. "But it can definitely be cured."

The boat sailed on the river for a month and finally entered Lin'an Prefecture in the Jiangnan area. The weather had turned cold by then, and the autumn and winter in Jiangnan were not warm either. They had just arrived and had some silver on them to pay for Madam Zhen's medical treatment, so they didn't dare to spend it indiscriminately. So the two of them wore the old clothes given by the old woman, which looked a bit out of place.

Madam Zhen had been lying in bed for a month. When she got off the boat, she was able to walk slowly with support. She didn't feel any pain in her body that made her afraid to walk, but her whole body was stiff and her limbs were uncoordinated.

When Zhen Jing got off the boat, she gave a little more money. The boat owner arranged for a waiter to take the two of them to the nearest town in a cart before leaving.

The two sat down in front of a food stall, ready to ask if there were any good doctors here. It was still dawn, and the proprietress brought two bowls of steaming soup and said it was free.

Zhen Jing took a look and saw a few pieces of seaweed leaves and egg shreds floating in the soup. It turned out to be seaweed and egg soup. Although there was only soup, and it was so thin that it could be used as a mirror, it was good enough to be free.

Breakfast included osmanthus cake, lotus leaf cake, purple rice cake and rice balls. Zhen Jing and Zhen Niangzi each ordered two rice balls. The rice balls were made of mixed grains and wrapped in lotus leaves. They smelled of lotus fragrance and tasted sweet and delicious.

Zhen Jing was eating rice balls, thinking about how she hadn't had a decent meal for a long time. She had only rice porridge, rice balls and pickles, so she had no appetite. But she couldn't go without food with her small body.

Madam Zhen drank the free soup and ate only one bowl. She was worried about how she could work in this state! How could she make money without working? How could she eat without money? And where were her biological parents? Even if she went there, they might not recognize her. She had been thinking about these questions for a month, and she was still thinking about them. In fact, she was a little depressed because of her physical condition.

She ate little, so the rest was eaten by Zhen Jing. Because she was worried, Zhen Jing realized she had eaten too much after she finished eating, so she had to give up the free soup.

The breakfast shop is not big, and customers came to eat one after another. Because there was free soup, the seats were full.

There were also beggars who came to beg for food. Seeing a bowl of soup in front of Zhen Jing, he stretched out his hand to ask for some. Zhen Jing poured the soup in the bowl into the little beggar's bowl, and the landlady took the bowl away.

The little beggar turned around and knelt down to beg the proprietress.

"Madam, please give me something to eat! My grandma is almost starving to death, please give me a rice ball!"

"The county government is giving out porridge today. Don't beg for it here. I have to support my family with my small business. I can't give you alms every day!"

When the little beggar heard this, he picked up the bowl, drank the soup and ran away.

Madam Zhen waited for Zhen Jing to pay for the meal and said to her, "If we had known that the county government was providing free porridge, we would have gone there to eat and saved some money!"

The guests eating nearby looked up at them and said, "Are you also fleeing from famine? If you are not desperate, don't go to get the free food. You will be humiliated by the officials who are distributing porridge. You are just making yourself angry for nothing!"

Zhen Jing and Zhen's wife thanked the guest for the reminder. Seeing that the man was quite enthusiastic, they asked him if there was any good doctor nearby.

"My brother is injured, and we are here to see a doctor."

"If you don't have much money, there is a Taoist priest on Wutong Mountain in the north of Han Village. He has excellent medical skills and often treats people for free. You can go to the mountain to find the Taoist priest. If you have money, you can go to the nearby clinic first."

The man ate breakfast quickly and left. He was carrying a basket of herbs and some game to sell at the market, so he had to hurry to grab a spot.

Customers came and ate quickly at the breakfast shop, and soon there were not that many people eating. Zhen Jing bought two rice cakes of various flavors from the boss lady and took them away. The boss lady was not in a hurry to drive them away.

At this time, a sturdy young man of about fifteen or sixteen came into the store carrying a basket. Zhen Jing was about to help Lady Zhen get up, but when she saw the young man, she couldn't help but stop.

Ignoring the clothes and hairstyle and only looking at the facial features, this child looks exactly like Yang Feiyue.

The young man came in hurriedly and stood not far from Zhen Jing, looking around.

Zhen Jing thought he was here to deliver goods, and the familiar face made her feel a little friendly, so she couldn't help but say, "The boss lady is in the back room, please put the goods down first, it's quite heavy to carry."

The young man looked at Zhen Jing and Zhen Niangzi and grinned, "Thank you, little brother. It's not heavy. It's just a few pomegranates."

Just as the boy said something to Zhen Jing, the proprietress came out and said, "Tietou, you're here! Go to the backyard and help me with the work."

It turns out that this child who looks like Yang Feiyue is called Tietou.

Tietou quickly went up to the proprietress and said, "Aunt, these are the pomegranates my mother asked me to bring. I have to go to the market to help my mother sell them..." He was interrupted by the proprietress before he could finish his words, "You have so many children in your family, you can help your mother. I'm so busy, get to work!"

Da Niu was scolded so much that he carried the basket and went to work in the back without saying a word.

Lady Zhen said:

"Han Yan, why don't we not go look for that Taoist priest? I can walk and eat now, just a little slower. Maybe in a month, my injury will be healed."

Zhen Jing thought about it and said, "I also think it's too troublesome to go up the mountain, but the Taoist priest treats patients for free! Let me find out how much it costs to rent a car? We'll decide later."

Zhen Jing stopped Tietou from clearing the dishes and asked, "How much does it cost to rent a car from this place to go to Wutong Mountain?"

Tietou touched his head and asked, "Are you going to see the Taoist priest for treatment? The Taoist priest in Wutong Mountain is very famous, but Wutong Mountain is quite far away, and renting a car costs five taels of silver."

He looked at Madam Zhen and said, "This brother's injury doesn't look too serious. The town's clinic should be able to treat him, right? It would cost at most two taels of silver to see a doctor and buy medicine, which is cheap."

Madam Zhen looked at Zhen Jing and asked:

"How far is the better hospital from here?"

"There's a small clinic one block away from here, and there's a big pharmacy two blocks across the market. There's a doctor there, too. They're all good!"

In the eyes of Tietou, there is no bad clinic.

"Thank you, little brother."

Madam Zhen thanked Tietou and let Zhen Jing support her as she slowly walked out of the restaurant. She said hesitantly, "How about we ask the price first? If the price is too high, we can just walk to Wutong Mountain?"

Zhen Jing had never worried about money. She even disliked the distance when she was asked to help Zhen Niang move step by step to the clinic, not to mention moving to Wutong Mountain. Unfortunately, she was a child now, weak and powerless, and had no skills. If she met a strong hand, she would be lifted up.

Moreover, there are many beggars in Lin'an City, which seems very unsafe.

"Ask the clinic first if they can treat you. If not, hire a car. When you find your biological parents, you will be rich and don't have to be afraid of spending money."

Madam Zhen smiled bitterly.

She also calculated her own birth date, but found nothing.

Even if her relatives were high-ranking officials, what did it have to do with her? They didn't necessarily acknowledge her as a child they had thrown away!

Zhen Jing also noticed that Madam Zhen was a little depressed, so she talked to her as they walked, "So, when you go to your biological parents' house, you need to be in good health, be able to fight and resist, and prevent yourself from being overwhelmed by the gossip in the backyard!"
