Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

"My dear girl, I'm counting on you. I, your father, am going to look for your mother. Our family depends on you. Please take good care of your brothers and sisters. Your father is sorry for you." A ethereal voice came into my ears, and a blurry figure gradually disappeared.

"Dad, don't go!" Xu Yuan stretched out his hand to grab the figure in front of him, so he shouted loudly, and then suddenly opened his eyes. His mind was still confused and drowsy, and he turned his head to look around.

The loud shout woke up Gu Qinghan who was sleeping on a small couch near the window.

Gu Qinghan stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked to the bed.

"How are you? Is your wound still painful?" The clear and pleasant voice instantly awakened Xu Yuan who was still confused.

"Water, I want water, thank you." Xu Yuan's lips were chapped and his voice was hoarse. He could also see clearly that his whole body was wrapped in bandages.

The man in front of him was tall, about eighteen or nineteen years old. He wore a dark robe, his hair was tied up with a bamboo hairpin, he had a high nose bridge, thin lips like fat, and sharp edges and corners.

Looks good.

Watching the man pour water for himself, he brought it to his mouth and drank it.

I have to say, the service is quite thoughtful.

"Thank you, Brother Gu. You can go back and have a rest first. I'm much better now." Xu Yuan saw the small soft couch on the other side of the window. This tall man was really causing him trouble.

"Okay, I'll talk to my mother first and bring you some food. You can take your medicine later. You lie down first." Then he opened the door, and at once the noises from outside came in, very noisy.

"Click"

The closed door blocked out the noise, and the footsteps gradually faded away.

The scenes from my dream are still lingering in my mind. Alas, they are just dreams and cannot be taken seriously.

After making a wish for a while, his stomach started to rumble. Then he came to his senses and looked around.

The house is not big, like a storage room, but it is kept clean and tidy, and the items are neatly arranged. It seems that this family is also very particular.

The room was bright, and outside the house one could faintly hear the sounds of children playing, a few women talking, and chickens crowing and dogs barking.

"Bang" the door was suddenly pushed open. A little girl holding a bowl of porridge ran in, her voice full of joy.

"Sister, sister, you're awake. Does your wound still hurt? Are you hungry? Come, I'll feed you. You have a wound now, so you can only eat light food. After you're full, you can take medicine." This is the original owner's sister, named Xu Zhi, who is eleven years old this year.

"It's okay, you came just in time. Why is your face so dirty? Let me wipe it for you. Have you eaten? Where's your brother? We'll go home after we take the medicine." Xu Yuan ate while looking at the little girl in front of him. The little girl's complexion was not good, with some mud on her face. She raised her hand to wipe it off. The little girl didn't have much flesh on her face, with her red and swollen eyes and chapped lips. It must be difficult for the little girl to find her elder sister.

"Brother is here too. He's playing with brother A Ming. Sister, your wounds on your head and feet haven't healed yet. Do you want to rest here for two days? The village chief also said that we can stay here for a few more days. Come, take one last bite." Xu Zhi suggested while looking at the bandages on Xu Yuan's head and feet.

"It's okay. Staying at someone else's house means trouble for others. It's better to be at home at home. I can leave." Xu Yuan wiped his mouth and motioned Xu Zhi to put down the bowl.

Xu Zhi didn't want to stay here. After all, he had troubled the other person for a whole night. The other person helped to find him, carried him down the mountain, found a doctor to treat his wounds, and even lay in his house and ate his food for free.

There is no such a good thing. Once is enough. It would be unreasonable to trouble others again.

"Here you are, Xiaoyuan, take the medicine. I just let it cool down a bit, it's just right for me to drink." A woman with a calm and dignified face, wearing a green cotton and linen long skirt, with her hair tied up with a wooden hairpin, about thirty years old. This is the village chief's wife, Gu Qinghan's mother Xu Qing, who opened the door and came in with the medicine.

…………

After instructing his mother to bring the medicine over, he walked towards his room. At this time, he saw his father and some prestigious elders in the village walking hurriedly towards the room in his house that was used to meet guests.

Gu Qinghan stopped and was about to follow, but his eyes turned and he immediately turned around and went back to the room without any hesitation.

"Brother, brother, I want to... go," Gu Qingming ran over with many people in his arms, and when he saw his brother, he shouted loudly.

Before he could finish his words, his brother disappeared.

"Hmph, if you don't want to play with your brother, let's go by ourselves, okay, Brother Aduo." Gu Qingming held many small hands and patted his chest like a good big brother.

"No, Dad said that we are young and the monsters in the river will catch children. Monsters are afraid of adults, so we need adults to lead us to the river. I listen to Dad. Brother Ming, you are also a child, so you can't go by yourself. It's time, my elder sister should be awake. Brother Ming, take me to see my elder sister." His voice was soft and sticky, and his words were well-reasoned.

"Okay, it's right to listen to dad. I won't go. Let's ask big brother to take us there some other time. Oh, let's go to see Sister Xuyuan. Come, Brother Ming will take you there." Gu Qingming just remembered this. He took many small hands like a little adult and walked towards the utility room.

"Aunt Xu, I will be back soon. You don't have to prepare meals for my sister and me. I really appreciate your family's help this time. I will definitely help you if you need help in the future." Xu Yuan picked up the medicine and drank it in one gulp without blinking, just like drinking water. After drinking it, he said to Xu Qing.

"Xiaoyuan, it's okay for you to live in this storage room. It's empty anyway. Your leg is still injured, so how can you walk? Besides, who will take care of you when you go back? Your father...ah, and Xiaozhi are small and can't help you with many things. You still need someone to take care of you. Just stay here without worry. It's not too late to leave when you feel better." When Xu Qing heard Xuyuan say this, he understood what Xuyuan was thinking. However, the family didn't have an adult to take care of it after all, and he was still injured.

"Yes, sister, you should listen to Aunt Xu and wait until your injury is healed." Xu Zhi didn't want his sister to be injured and run around.

"Here it comes, here it comes, Hodor. Right here."

There was a sound outside and two small figures appeared at the door.

"Wishing Sister"

"Miss"

Two little children held hands and ran in.

The taller child, wearing a blue long gown, was sturdy, with plump cheeks, a pair of big watery eyes, and a delicate face. He was about eight or nine years old.

The younger child was also dressed in blue cotton and linen, thin and small, but with bright eyes. This was the original owner's younger brother, Xuduo, who was three years old this year.

As soon as Xuanyu came in, his small figure rushed to Xuyuan's bedside. Looking at Xuyuan's hands, feet and head wrapped in bandages, his eyes suddenly became red. He gently touched here and there, and asked Xuyuan if it hurt.

Gu Qingming originally wanted to go up and take a look, but was pulled out by Xu Qing.

"You siblings can chat first. Xiaoyuan, listen to your aunt and stay here for two days. When you can walk on your own, you can leave later. Okay?" Xu Qing pulled Gu Qingming to the door, then turned to look at Xu Yuan and asked.

Xu Yuan didn't want to disappoint Xu Qing's repeated attempts to keep him and persuade him, and he knew his own situation and it was indeed inconvenient for him to stay at home, so he agreed to stay and recuperate.

"Village Chief, what do you think we should do now? I'm really at a loss."

"Yes, you said..."
