The Qiao family now has two carriages and a cart.

They asked Madam Qin to take her two children into the carriage, but Madam Qin repeatedly waved her hands and refused to get on.

It was already a great favor for the benefactors to allow the three of them to follow them without being bullied. How could she ride in the benefactor's carriage?

Finally, after some hard talking, Mrs. Qin allowed Xiao An'er, who had almost recovered after taking medicine and drinking spiritual spring water, but still couldn't live without people, to get into the carriage where the little guys were sitting.

An'er, who was more than two years old, witnessed the tragic scene of her parents and other relatives being hacked to death in front of her, and was greatly stimulated.

Although the fever has subsided, the psychological trauma has not yet recovered. He refuses to speak and does not want to trust anyone. He only feels safe when being held by his aunt or cousin.

In the first few days, he nestled in Madam Qin's arms, with only half of his head exposed, looking at everything around him with his timid eyes, and ignored anyone who spoke to him.

However, after a few days, the kindness of Qiao's family made the little guy gradually let down his guard.

Several kind-hearted brothers and sisters of the Qiao family chattered loudly in the carriage, and often held his hand and kept talking to him regardless of whether he responded or not, which gradually made him come out of his fear.

He likes to listen to his brothers and sisters talk, and they will give him sweet candies to eat.

Children have great forgetfulness. After their attention is diverted, they quickly forget the tragic scenes and gradually integrate into the little guys.

But when sleeping at night, I still have to sleep close to my aunt.

Seeing that An'er was able to play with the benefactors during the day, Mrs. Qin asked him to sit in the carriage with the benefactors. She got off the carriage and followed behind. She would not take advantage of the benefactors anyway. .

And 10-year-old Qin Gengwen was unwilling to ride in the carriage from the beginning, and even rushed to help Qiao Sihai push the cart.

He heard that the fourth uncle of the Qiao family was a boy and was very likely to be admitted as a scholar. He felt that he could not let his benefactor push the cart with his learned hands.

Fortunately, the official road was very flat and there were not many heavy objects on the cart. Qiao Sihai couldn't resist him, so he had to push the cart to him.

And Mrs. Qin really did what she said. When she stopped to rest, she wished she could take all the work away.

When she saw her son going hunting with her benefactors, she asked An'er to play with her little benefactors.

I collect firewood, dig wild vegetables, build earthen stoves, cook meals, fetch water, and wash clothes...

She tried her best to grab whatever work she could do, which made Mrs. Qiao and Chen Huiniang suddenly free, and they felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

Mrs. Qin is really neat at work, the food she cooks is delicious, and the flowers she embroiders are beautiful.

She can also draw and make patterns by herself. In her spare time, Mrs. Qiao, Chen Hui, mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law also learn embroidery from Mrs. Qin.

Madam Qin really taught her attentively, and Chen Huiniang and Lin Guizhen were able to embroider so well that even Mrs. Qiao could keep up with them. The embroidered patterns were not to say exquisite, but at least they were acceptable.

Qin Gengwen was also very serious about learning to hunt. After Qiao Ran let him try various weapons, she found that he was very talented in archery and very strong. He was a good young man for practicing martial arts.

So she asked him to pick up a bow and arrow and a sword, and Qiao Ran focused on teaching him archery and sword skills.

This child was a smart kid, and he quickly learned the skills well. He put in a lot of effort during hunting, and the Qiao family didn't have to worry about running out of meat.

Mrs. Qin, mother and son, ate with the Qiao family. They had rice, pancakes and meat to eat every day, which made Qiao Dewang's family, who could only eat wild vegetables, jealous.

They couldn't understand why the Qiao family could be so generous to strangers, not only saving their lives, but also giving them food.

But they were so indifferent to their blood relatives, not even giving them a grain of rice.

Qiao Honglian was so angry that she hated Qiao Ran to her core.

It's a pity that she can't speak now, otherwise she must let the whole village know how hypocritical and vicious Qiao Ran is, who would kill herself and brother Lu Sheng just because of a trivial matter.

These days, both her and Wang Lusheng's bodies were covered in bloody scratches, and some places even had pus and scabs. Fortunately, the weather was getting colder, otherwise maggots would have grown out.

The two of them were in so much pain that they just hoped to find the town as soon as possible and go to the hospital to find a doctor to see if he could get rid of the itching disease that made them miserable.

Qiao Honglian also desperately wanted to heal her throat so that she could speak. This feeling of being unable to speak was too painful!

At noon that day, they finally arrived at the first town they saw after leaving the mountain.

This is a small town, only slightly larger than Linxuan Town.

There is a small medical clinic in the town. There is only one doctor and two medicine boys in the medical clinic.

Wang Lusheng and Qiao Honglian couldn't wait to find the medical center. The doctor took their pulses and said they were poisoned by eating poisonous wild fruits. He prescribed some medicine to each of them and asked for a tael of silver each.

The two families sadly donated one tael of silver, which was the only money they had left.

Especially for the Wang family, Aunt Wang really took out the few pieces of jewelry she got from her ex-husband at the bottom of the box to pay for the diagnosis and medication expenses of one tael.

The medicine the doctor prescribed to Qiao Honglian only said that it could cure her itching, but it could not cure her mutism.

The doctor didn't know why Qiao Honglian suddenly became mute. Logically speaking, the wild fruit she ate had no mute effect.

Qiao Honglian gritted her teeth in anger, and Qiao Dewang almost vomited blood.

In desperation, he had to pay another taels of silver to Qiao Ran and asked her to cure Qiao Honglian's mutism.

Qiao Ran simply collected the money and went to the market in the town. When she came back, she said she had found the medicine.

He threw a dark stick-like herbal medicine to Huang and asked her to divide the medicinal material into three parts and boil a bowl of concoction for Qiao Honglian to drink every day.

And this medicine was the sophora flavescens that made Qiao Honglian suffer so much. It used to be extremely bitter when boiled into a concoction with other medicines, let alone this medicine alone?

At this moment, she couldn't help retching as soon as she smelled the smell of the medicine. After taking a sip, her stomach began to churn, and the few wild vegetables she ate almost came up from her stomach, trying to get out of her mouth. gush out.

However, Mrs. Huang was worried that she wasted this precious herbal medicine that cost a few snowflakes of silver, so she kept watching her from the side.

She had to try her best to hold back her nausea, even if the contents of her stomach reached her throat, she had to swallow it with all her strength.

In order to be able to speak, she had to endure it.

And this was Qiao Ran's intention.

Do you think she can easily detoxify this vicious girl like Qiao Honglian?

Think beautiful!
