The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

Yan Shu returned to the cave, and everyone was working together to spread the cut hay flatly on the ground, forming a long pavement.

Yan Shu called two women to put the iron pot on the fire. She poured a bucket of water into the iron pot.

Not long after, the women who processed pheasants and hares also came back. They processed the pheasant meat and hare meat cleanly, and walked to Yan Shu with smiles.

"Miss Yan, how do you prepare these meats?"

Yan Shu ordered: "Go get two more buckets of water and stew the meat later."

"Good good."

The two women went out each carrying a bucket.

After the water boiled, Yan Shu asked someone to pour the water from the iron pot into a wooden bucket and set it aside. Then he poured the two buckets of water brought by the woman into the iron pot and started to stew the chicken.

After everyone returned to the cave, Yan Shu asked them all to bring their own bowls, and each person filled them with a bowl of warm water.

Everyone was hungry and thirsty, so they didn't ask any questions when they saw the water. They just drank it from the bowl.

Yan Shu walked to Wen Yutang and reached out to touch his forehead. After taking the antipyretic medicine she gave him, his body temperature dropped significantly.

Wen Yutang has been falling asleep since he came to the cave. During this period, he only woke up briefly when he took medicine and drank water. After taking medicine and fell asleep again, he vaguely felt someone touching his forehead, and the hand was warm and delicate. , which reminded him of his mother.

"Mom, don't go, don't leave the child, mother..."

Her hand was tightly grasped by the other party. Yan Shu's eyelids twitched and he lowered his head to look at the young man in front of him. He curled up and trembled all over, tears falling down from the corners of his eyes.

"Brother must have been dreaming about my mother. Wow, Mo'er misses my parents so much." The little girl beside her also started crying.

Yan Shu sighed softly, took out his hand and took out a piece of candy from the cloth bag: "Do you want to eat it?"

Xiao Mo'er was sobbing, tears still hanging on her eyelashes, but her eyes were instantly attracted to the piece of candy.

Yan Shu smiled and put the candy into her hand.

Xiao Mo'er looked at the candy in her hand, licked her chapped lips, and her eyes were shining brightly when she raised her head again.

"Sister, can Mo'er leave this piece of candy to my brother?"

Yan Shu really felt sorry for this little girl. He was still just a child. He obviously wanted to eat sweets but still held back and wanted to leave the best things to his brother.

Yan Shu took out another piece from the cloth bag: "Keep this piece for your brother."

Xiao Mo'er excitedly held her little hand: "Thank you, sister."

Yan Shu glanced at Wen Yutang again, and then called Liu Yuanxin to bring two bundles of hay over. The two spread the hay evenly in the corner.

"The four of you will sleep here tonight. If you feel unwell, please let us know in time."

"Thank you, Miss Yan."

Sister-in-law Cai thanked her profusely, walked to the hay with her child in her arms, and sat down.

Wen Yutang was still in a coma, and Yan Shu and Liu Yuanxin worked together to help him onto the straw mat.

Settled here, the chicken soup is ready.

Yan Shu arranged for two young men to serve rice. On average, each of them got half a bowl of chicken soup and a multi-grain pancake.

With the hot chicken soup and dry food, the faces of everyone could not hide the joy. They gradually adapted to the current life, and naturally became polite to Yan Shu, the benefactor.

After eating, Yan Shu asked about everyone's physical conditions. As expected, several women and children developed high fevers. Yan Shu temporarily arranged them to be with Wen Yutang and Sister-in-law Cai.

Seeing many more infected people appear in the team, everyone's good mood also dropped.

"Everyone, go to bed early. I will go to the mountains to collect herbs tomorrow morning. I will have all the herbs to treat the plague by tomorrow night at the latest."

A tall, thin boy choked up.

"Sister Yan Shu, please don't lie to us. The plague cannot be cured, and we will all die here in the end."

"Second Fatty, shut up." The woman next to the young man scolded him hastily.

The woman looked at Yan Shu fearfully and said, "Miss Yan Shu, don't argue with Er Fatty. He has always been outspoken and what he said is beyond his imagination."

At this time, an elderly woman sighed.

"Miss Yan, even if you can't cure the plague, we won't blame you. Originally, we refugees would have starved to death sooner or later. We were able to find such a good place before we died, and we could still eat meat and drink broth. I'm already contented, old lady, I didn't even dare to dream like this before."

This meal made everyone change their attitude towards Yan Shu. This little girl could have ignored them whether they lived or died, but she insisted on letting them go up the mountain for so-called isolation.

Even if everyone was infected with the plague in the end, they had to admit that the meal they had on the mountain was the best meal they had eaten in more than two months, and it was worth dying on the mountain.

Sister-in-law Cai touched her youngest son's forehead and said happily: "My Xiaoshan's fever seems to have subsided. Everyone must believe Miss Yan. Xiaoshan's fever subsided quickly after taking the medicine she gave her, which shows that Miss Yan's medicine is effective." "

Xiao Mo'er on the side nodded vigorously in agreement: "My brother's fever has gone away, and my sister's medical skills are very good."

After listening to Sister-in-law Cai and Xiao Mo'er's words, everyone gradually believed in Yan Shu's medical skills.

"Sister Yan Shu, I apologize to you for what I just said." Er Pang apologized sincerely.

Several women who had previously slandered Yan Shu secretly also took the initiative to apologize to her.

Yan Shu glanced at everyone. In just one day, these refugees began to change their attitude towards her. To be precise, it started from that pot of broth.

It's okay, it would be easier to manage them if they were more obedient.

The incubation period of the plague is usually one to three days. Today, Wen Yutang, Cai's sister-in-law's youngest son, and five other refugees have all been diagnosed with the infection, and the rest will gradually develop symptoms within these three days.

Tomorrow she needed to prepare the traditional Chinese medicine to treat the plague as soon as possible. She didn't want to waste too much time in the mountains.

"Sister Yan Shu."

"Huh?" Yan Shu retracted his thoughts and looked sideways at Liu Yuanxin beside him.

"I heard from my brother that you are Mr. Jiang's sister-in-law. I see that he respects you very much. Can you tell me what kind of person he is?" Liu Yuanxin's cheeks turned slightly red when she mentioned Jiang Ci.

Yan Shu's eyelids twitched slightly, and he instantly understood what the little girl was thinking.

She pondered for a moment, and scenes of her experiences after meeting Jiang Ci appeared in her mind.

"My brother-in-law is a man who restrains himself and repays kindness. Perhaps he saw that my husband died just after I married into the Jiang family, so he took great care of me as my sister-in-law because of my brother's kindness."

Her answer was more official. Her words not only showed the relationship between her and Jiang Ci's uncle and sister-in-law, but also explained the reason why Jiang Ci took care of her.

Liu Yuanxin listened carefully: "My eldest brother most often praises Mr. Jiang's talent, saying how smart he is. It takes others a long time to recite an article, but he only needs to read it once to recite it word for word. I was like I am very curious whether this person is a genius? When I saw him yesterday, I felt that he gave people a sense of alienation and coldness, making people afraid to talk to him easily. I was even a little afraid of him. "

Yan Shu didn't want to talk too much about this topic.

This Miss Liu San must be interested in Jiang Ci, and Liu Yunzhao is Jiang Ci's classmate and friend. If the Liu family really has this intention, Liu Yunzhao will definitely discuss the matter with Jiang Ci in private.

With Cao Juan's past experience, she didn't want to meddle in such nosy matters. Jiang Ci was such an independent person, and he would not be influenced by others in who he wanted to marry.

Yan Shu lay down on his side: "Go to bed early, we have to go out to find herbs tomorrow morning."

"Ah."
