The general is always teased

In the following days, Shen Yijin's life was still the same as before, and it didn't change much because of Shi Nanyue's appearance. Except for the addition of taking care of patients, everything else was still the same as before——

Every day, I went to Tong's Mansion on time to teach the children in the mansion how to read and write. Until the third quarter of Shenshi, I let the children go to school, packed up by myself, and then went home.

However, some aspects have changed.

In the past, Shen Yijin seldom bought meat except during the New Year and festivals, because he felt that meat was too expensive, a small piece cost one hundred pennies, and one hundred pennies was enough for him to eat for several days, so he couldn't bear it, so He would always wait until old man Lin taught him a lesson before buying some, but now, every two days, he will consciously buy a piece of meat, although the portion is small, but it still costs a little [-] yuan, which is to him As far as it is concerned, it is already very incredible.

When Lin Yan saw it for the first time, he was stunned for a long time in surprise. After he realized it, he smiled and praised him for finally knowing how to take care of himself, with a very relieved look on his face.

Looking at Lin Yan's appearance, Shen Yijin knew that he had misunderstood, but she didn't explain but just smiled and didn't respond.

Shen Yijin was not going to tell Lin Yan that these meats were all for nourishing Shi Nanyue's body. After all, Shi Nanyue had promised him that after he recovered from his injury, he would return all the money he spent.

That being the case, he naturally couldn't be too stingy, otherwise when will he be able to get back the money he spent!

The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had already passed.

On this day, after Shen Yijin left Tong's Mansion, she went to the street to buy meat as usual. The meat seller was a couple. Since they saw each other often during this period, they already knew Shen Yijin. When they saw Shen Yijin coming, they laughed Say hello to him.

Shen Yijin saw them, and smiled at them, then lowered her head and took out a few books from the small bag she was carrying, handed them to the couple, and said, "Every time I came here a few days ago, I saw Xiaobao was serious. Looking at the book, I guess he is someone who likes to read, this is the book used by the young master of the Tongfu, although it is used, but the book is still new, if you don't mind it, let Xiaobao use it."

Xiaobao, the couple's son, just turned seven this year.

When Shen Yijin saw Xiaobao for the first time, when she came to buy meat, other children were playing with stones, and Xiaobao was alone, sitting in a corner, holding a torn "Three Character Classic", Shaking his head and carrying the book in a crisp voice, he looks very serious.

Looking at the book in front of them, the couple were stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, they quickly wiped their hands and prepared to pick it up, but when they were about to touch it, they stopped suddenly, then raised their heads, and whispered tentatively: "Young master, this...do you really want to give it to my little treasure?"

Shen Yijin nodded with a smile, thought for a while, and added: "If there is something Xiaobao doesn't understand, you can also ask me."

Hearing this, the couple happily took the book, thanked Shen Yijin with gratitude, and then wrapped the book carefully with a piece of clean cloth like a baby. After putting the book away, they He rubbed his hands again, and said gratefully: "We are both rough and illiterate, but Xiaobao loves to read. He regarded that three-something book as a treasure, and read it countless times. It's broken..."

Having said that, they paused, sighed with wry smiles, and continued: "Originally, we saved a little bit, and we could barely pay for Xiaobao to go to private school, and Xiaobao is also very happy, but these days, the people on the mountain The gang of thieves has become more and more rampant. In the past, they only came to the village once a month, but now they come every half a month. All valuables have been robbed. We have no money, so we can no longer send Xiaobao to a private school. gone."

Shen Yijin listened, and couldn't help being surprised: "Bandits? Are you from Luojia Village?" Going up the river outside Taoyuan Village is Luojia Village, which is just under the mountain where there are bandits.

"We are from Luojia Village." The couple said helplessly: "Being harassed by these thieves, many people can't stay and left the village, but our ancestors have lived there for generations. home."

"Then why didn't you find an official..." Realizing what he wanted to say, Shen Yijin stopped abruptly. He almost forgot that those bandits relied on their friendship with some officials to commit such crimes and were extremely arrogant.

Lowering her eyes, Shen Yijin pursed her lips, the expression on her face was full of disgust.

Not caring about Shen Yijin's unfinished words, the couple continued what they said just now: "Forget it, let's not mention these, with my son, you still have promises for these three books. Xiaobao will be very happy when he finds out. It's really great." I know how to thank you, my lord...you are really a good person, a good person!"

They talked, and suddenly stopped as if thinking of something, then the husband picked up a knife, cut a large piece of meat out, wrapped it up and handed it to Shen Yijin, and said with a smile: "We really don't know how to thank you, this piece The meat will be given to the young master."

The couple have never read a book, and they don't know how to use those gorgeous rhetoric. They just used the most simple words and actions to express their gratitude.

Hearing this, Shen Yijin's eyes lit up, he couldn't help staring at the meat for a long time, then swallowed again, after a long while, he finally suppressed the desire to reach for it, and coughed lightly as if to cover up With a sigh, he waved his hand and refused: "It's just a little effort, you don't have to do this."

"This……"

The couple looked at each other, and both could clearly see the embarrassment in each other's eyes.

Shen Yijin forcibly pulled her gaze away from her flesh, raised her head and smiled at them, and said, "Besides, these books were originally not wanted by the young master of the Tongfu, and they can be used for Xiaobao to continue studying. gone."

After a pause, he went on to say: "Please cut me the meat of the same size as before, that's enough. This is money." Then, he counted out a hundred coins from his purse and handed them to them.

Looking at the one hundred coins in front of them, the couple were in a dilemma, and did not reach out to take it, while Shen Yijin also maintained the posture of handing it out, motionless.

The three of them were in a stalemate like this, and after a while, the couple finally nodded, and according to Shen Yijin's request, cut the meat for him, and after handing it to him, thanked Shen Yijin again.

Shen Yijin shook her head, smiled and waved to them, then turned and left.

On the way back, Shen Yijin lowered her head and carefully counted the money she spent recently. After the calculation, she took out her purse and opened it. When she saw that there were only copper coins that could be counted with one hand, she couldn't help but grow He sighed for a long time, and then remembered the meat he had rejected just now, and still felt his heart ache——

If he doesn't refuse, he won't need to buy any more for a long time, and he can save a lot of money!

Thinking of this, Shen Yijin couldn't help feeling a little discouraged, and raised her hand to scratch her hair again.

When she withdrew her hand, Shen Yijin finally calmed down, her mind no longer stayed on the money, but instead remembered the thieves mentioned by the couple, her brows were tightly frowned.

Although Taoyuan Village is still a certain distance from the mountains occupied by those bandits, and is very close to Hangzhou City, it is hard to guarantee that after those bandits plundered all the surrounding villages, they will not be satisfied and come up with the idea of ​​coming here, let alone listen to the words of the couple. Well, for some reason, those bandits have been very active recently, looting all the nearby villages.

If so, Taoyuan Village might be in danger, and we must find a way to get rid of those bandits. Thinking of this, Shen Yijin couldn't help but frowned and began to think.

Thinking of this, Shen Yijin returned to the village without knowing it.

As soon as he walked in front of his door, Shen Yijin heard a very familiar yelling and cursing. When he heard the sound, he raised his head, and saw Shi Nanyue who could only lie in bed at this time, with a straight face, frowning, leaning on the door rail with a pale face. Standing at the door.

And outside his house, there was a group of people around, and from the innermost part of the crowd, there came one after another, ugly curses.

The cursing voice was so familiar, Shen Yijin quickly recognized who it was, and his expression became very ugly in an instant.

At this moment, someone in the crowd saw Shen Yijin and shouted again: "Shen Yijin is back."

Hearing this, the crowd of onlookers scattered in all directions immediately, and the person inside who was yelling at each other without any intention of stopping finally appeared clearly in front of Shen Yijin.
