Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

The night before, Luo Xiaoran asked Du Kongqing to take Chou Li home so that Du Kongqing could go and pick up the village chief early in the morning.

At dawn the next day, Du Kongqing went to the village chief's house to pick someone up as agreed.

The autumn wind suddenly blows, blowing up fallen leaves all over the ground.

Under the hazy sky, among the falling leaves, a figure with disheveled hair was wandering around.

Du Kongqing was startled immediately and looked carefully. Isn’t this Yu Hongmei from the village?

Yu Hongmei wandered around, muttering to herself:

"Xiao Hu——"

"Xiaohu, where have you been? Mom misses you——"

"Xiaohu, stop being naughty and come out quickly!"

Du Kongqing took back the silver needle in his hand and looked at Yu Hongmei's crazy appearance, which was really pitiful.

Although he was not familiar with her, Du Kongqing knew her experience and felt very sympathetic, so he kindly reminded her:

"Aunt Hongmei, it's very windy today, you should go home early! Be careful not to catch a cold!"

Yu Hongmei turned around when she heard the voice, and the first thing that caught her eye was Chou Li's somewhat lazy horse face.

When he looked up again, Du Kongqing was sitting in the carriage in neat clothes, with his usual veil on his head covering his face.

Yu Hongmei suddenly felt unhappy.

The whereabouts of her only son is unknown, but Du Kongqing, who was down and out some time ago, is living such a good life now.

She even looked down on the son of the county magistrate and even pretended to be sick to scare Master An away.

Yesterday, the wind blew up the thin silk on Du Kongqing's face, and she saw that her little face was as smooth and white as before.

Yu Hongmei snorted in her heart, ignored Du Kongqing, and continued wandering.

Seeing this, Du Kongqing had no choice but to give up and drove the carriage to the village chief's house.

Wang Baobao and Zhang Xiuqiao both accompanied the village chief. Wang Baobao sat in the carriage to take care of the dizzy village chief, while Zhang Xiuqiao sat outside with Du Kongqing.

Unexpectedly, I met Yu Hongmei again before leaving Hexi Village.

This time Du Kongqing said no more. He was only thinking about sending the village chief to Huichun Hall first, so he did not stop.

But Yu Hongmei suddenly called her, her voice slightly hoarse:

"Kong Qing, are you and Xiu Qiao going to the county town? Take me with you!"

"Uu——"

Du Kongqing stopped the carriage, turned to look at Yu Hongmei and explained:

“Aunt Hongmei, I am taking the village chief to the county town for medical treatment.

I think you haven't had breakfast yet, why don't you go home and wash up, have breakfast, and then take Uncle Niu's car to the county town!"

There was a fallen leaf stuck in Yu Hongmei's loose hair, making her look a little messy, but she seemed unaware of it.

Yu Hongmei's expression was calm, so calm that it was a little eerie.

"Since you are so kind as to send the village chief to the clinic, why don't you help me find my little tiger?"

Du Kongqing was stunned by her question. While he was in a daze, Wang Baobao popped his head out of the carriage:

"Hongmei, when Xiaohu got lost, Changzong led the villagers to look for him for three days and three nights, but still couldn't find him.

Now that it's been so long, you should let it go.

Changzong started feeling unwell yesterday afternoon, and we rushed him to see a doctor."

The implication of Wang Baobao's words was very clear. After saying these words, she gave Du Kongqing a look.

Du Kongqing understood what she meant and was about to drive away, but was stopped by Yu Hongmei.

"Since we are treating the village chief, it is of course a very important matter.

But I think there’s room for one more person outside, so take me with you!

Just drop me off at the city gate when the time comes, and it won’t delay you.”

"Okay then! Auntie, come up quickly!"

……

"Xiao Ran! Xiao Ran!"

In the evening, Du Kongqing rushed into Luo Xiaoran's house like a rabbit, with a look of great joy on his face.

"Slow down! What about the village chief?"

Luo Xiaoran was practicing calligraphy in the room. When she saw Du Kongqing coming, she stopped writing and took a break.

“Doctor Zeng’s diagnosis is the same as mine, both of them said that the village chief suffers from excessive liver fire.

I also showed him the prescription I wrote, and he said it was very appropriate.

Now, the village chief and others think I am a reliable doctor!"

"That's great!" Luo Xiaoran nodded, very happy for Du Kongqing.

"After what happened, when our clinic opens, who dares to say you can't be a doctor?"

Du Kongqing felt embarrassed by the compliments and instead wanted to share some interesting things with Luo Xiaoran.

She moved closer to Luo Xiaoran, blinking her big eyes, very excited:

"By the way, Xiaoran, I also drove Aunt Wang to Zhang Shoucheng's pastry shop."

"Oh? What happened? Your mouth is almost crooked from laughing." Luo Xiaoran joked.

"Hehehe!" Du Kongqing simply laughed first, and then began to tell the story.

"Wait!" Luo Xiaoran interrupted her, "Ruyi, quickly bring a plate of melon seeds and make a pot of tea!"

After the melon seeds and tea were ready, Luo Xiaoran raised her chin and said, "Let's get started!"

“Sister Xiuqiao is taking care of the village chief at Huichun Hall, and I took Aunt Wang to the pastry shop.

When we first went in, Brother Zhang was being chased and beaten by his fierce wife, Sister Chu Mo, who was beating and cursing at him, and it was quite lively.

Just then, Aunt Wang came in. When Brother Zhang and Sister Chu Mo saw her, they were stunned.

At that time, Chu Mo's sister-in-law was holding a feather duster in one hand and twisting Zhang Erge's ear with the other. The two of them were like stone statues in a temple, standing still and motionless.

I originally thought that Aunt Wang would be angry that Sister Chu Mo hit Brother Zhang, but she strode forward, snatched the feather duster from Sister Chu Mo's hand, and beat Brother Zhang mercilessly.

While smoking and cursing:

"Chu Mo has such a big belly, can you let her chase you like this?"

"Chu Mo is not feeling well, why did you make her angry again!"

"Your father has become sick because of you, a bastard!"

……

Aunt Wang usually looks very gentle and enthusiastic, but I didn’t expect that she would be so scary when she started to teach people a lesson!

Not to mention me, even when I told Sister Xiuqiao about this incident afterwards, she was stunned.”

"and then?"

Luo Xiaoran also listened with great interest, and even a handful of melon seed shells were piled up.

"Then Brother Zhang followed Aunt Wang to Huichun Hall and apologized in front of the village chief, saying that he really had to take care of his wife and couldn't leave.

Although the village chief was also angry, he did not embarrass Zhang Erge in public. He just told him to help Sister Xiuqiao find a suitable husband..."

……

Du Kongqing dropped Yu Hongmei off at the city gate. Yu Hongmei saw the carriage off with a smile on her face, but turned around with a gloomy look on her face.

You are so good, Du Kongqing!

You can help the village chief's family, but you don't help my family. How hypocritical!

My little tiger, he was so young and had been missing for such a long time, and no one helped me find him.

Y'all say I'm crazy, but I just want my little tiger.

It will cost money to find Xiaohu, so I need to save more money.

Yu Hongmei was thinking in her mind as she walked.

The direction she was heading was towards the Fuyuan County Government Office.

She wanted to ask An Ruquan for the reward money.
