Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

"Get out of the way! The village chief and Doctor Zhao are here!"

"Mom, third sister!"

The first person to rush into the yard was Liu Ercheng, who saw that something was wrong and ran to the village chief to seek justice.

He knew that he was young and weak, and was afraid that he could not stop his grandmother from selling his mother and sisters, so he thought about asking the village chief for help.

It wasn’t a long journey, but when we got to the village chief’s house, there was no one there.

It was Aunt Zhou, who lived next door to the village chief, who showed us the way.

Liu Erchengcai ran hurriedly to the farthest piece of land outside the village and invited the village chief over.

I happened to arrive here with Doctor Zhao!

"Grandpa Zhao, please take a look at my mother and my third sister. I beg you, I will definitely be your horse in the future to repay your kindness."

Liu Ercheng kowtowed to Doctor Zhao. Doctor Zhao couldn't bear it and hurried over to check the two people's conditions and injuries without saying any more nonsense.

"Old Liu? What are you doing? Are you living too comfortably? Why do you make trouble for no reason? I think no one in your family can control you."

The village chief is over fifty years old this year, two years older than the deceased Grandpa Liu. In addition, he has always been a highly respected figure in the village, so he showed no mercy when scolding Grandma Liu!

"Humph! I think you, the village chief, are just meddling in other people's business. My own family affairs don't need the village to take care of them. If you don't like it, you can buy it for ten taels of silver, and I promise I won't say a word."

Old Mrs. Liu crossed her arms and showed no fear at all.

The other members of the Liu family, including Liu Sun, who had just been giving advice to her mother-in-law, had already secretly hidden in the house when the village chief came, for fear that the village chief would take action against them.

"You, you, you make me so angry, you have lived in vain for so many years, the second kid has just been gone for more than a year, and you want to sell his wife and daughter, do you have a conscience?

You don't love your daughter-in-law, so you don't love your own granddaughter either? And your two grandsons, their mother and sister were sold, how are you going to let them live in the village in the future?"

After all, the village chief was old, and he was trembling with anger. Fortunately, his two sons who followed him supported him, otherwise he would have easily fallen down.

"What do you mean by granddaughters or not? They are just two little girls. I didn't say I was selling my grandchildren. Why can't they live? I provide them with food and drink. I have provided them with food and drink until they are so old. How could I have made a mistake in providing for them?

If my family wasn't so poor, would I have said I would sell them? Besides, whether to sell them or not is our Liu family's business.

What does it have to do with you guys? If you don't leave, I'll chase you away with a broom."

Old Mrs. Liu was determined to continue her tantrum, and she pulled Qian Mama, who was watching the fun on the side, to continue bargaining.

"Big sister, 8 taels, just load the mother and her two children into the car and take them away. Don't worry, I will never let you lose money."

Mother Qian looked at the village doctor who was half-squatting on the ground, and without answering what Old Lady Liu said, she walked straight over.

"How's this, big and small? Is it serious?"

There was no respect in his tone.

Doctor Zhao had actually examined Liu Shanshan who had a fever a long time ago. Xia Shengsheng went to ask for medicine a few days ago. Logically, her condition should have stabilized. It was just a minor cold.

But judging from the fact that he is unconscious now, he is probably frightened too much.

The wound on Xia Shengsheng's head does look scary, but it shouldn't be a big deal after some time of recuperation. However, he still needs to be carefully cared for.

"Serious? How can it not be serious? Look at this little one, he is still unconscious and we don't know if he can wake up! And this big one has lost so much blood, he has been sitting here for a long time and can't speak. Even if he is rescued, I don't think he is stupid, but he is not much better. He can't be saved, he can't be saved! "

When everyone heard this, they all sighed. They didn't expect their injuries were so serious.

Xia Shengsheng knew that just after Doctor Zhao examined Liu Shanshan, she forced herself to ask quietly and found out that it was just excessive fright and nothing serious.

It was just that everyone was paying attention to the argument between the village chief and Old Lady Liu, and no one paid attention to what they were saying.

You mean she's stupid? Xia Shengsheng, with a frown on her face, really wants to thank Doctor Zhao.

After listening to Dr. Zhao's words, Qian's mother was not so enthusiastic about buying people. There were only three people in total, one was dead, one was stupid, and the remaining girl, well! It seemed that she didn't look very smart.

That straight look in his eyes, could he also be a fool?

"How can he not be saved? It's just a minor illness. Mother Qian, don't listen to that old man's nonsense. He is not even a proper doctor! He just prescribes medicine for people in the village to make a living. How can he know any medical skills?"

"Old Liu? Are you okay? Doctor Zhao has been in the village for more than ten years. If anyone in the village has a headache or fever, they will go to see Doctor Zhao. Have you never had your family seen by Doctor Zhao? And you still say that he is not a proper doctor? Let me tell you, we don't agree with you insulting Doctor Zhao like this!!"

"Yes! Doctor Zhao is very good at treating illnesses! Two years ago, I don't know what my son ate. He started foaming at the mouth and it was scary. Even the doctors at the town clinic couldn't cure him. It was Doctor Zhao who cured him with two prescriptions. I would say that Doctor Zhao is a miracle doctor. There is no disease he can't cure."

"Yes! If Doctor Zhao says it's no use, it's probably...

Hey! Why are the second daughter-in-law and several children of the Liu family so miserable? "

Mother Qian listened to the villagers' discussions and looked at the people on the ground who were breathing in more than out. No matter how many thoughts she had before, she didn't want to stay any longer at this moment.

Without even saying a word, he turned around and got on the carriage.

Old Mrs. Liu was still holding on from behind and didn't want to let go.

"I was badly cheated by you this time. You wanted to sell me ten taels of silver for just a few of them, wasting my time. If you continue to pester me, I'll be rude to you."

After saying that, she shook her sleeves, turned around and got into the carriage.

Old Madam Liu was still shouting from behind, "Five ounces, four ounces, Mama Qian, please don't leave!"

Watching the carriage gradually go away, Doctor Zhao, who had bandaged Xia Shengsheng's wound, gradually breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Doctor Zhao, Shanshan..."

Xia Shengsheng was a little out of breath while speaking. It seemed that she was not only weak due to the bleeding, but also mostly due to hunger. She had no strength at all.

Doctor Zhao sighed and said, "Hey! I'll go back and get two doses of tranquilizers for Shan. Don't worry, it's nothing serious."

"Mrs. Li, you sisters-in-law, please help carry the person in first..." The village chief had only said half of his words when he was interrupted by Mrs. Liu in a rage.

"Help? Where can you help? You're going to die anyway, so why not just drag you out and bury you? You're such a waste of money. You can't even bring any benefits to your family before you die. I don't know what you're doing in this world?

I don't care. Anyway, we don't want the dying or stupid one anymore. You can help them wherever you want."

Old Madam Liu's arrogance did not subside at all. She was determined to kick Xia Shengsheng and her daughter out today.

As for the two grandsons and another relatively healthy granddaughter, they might be useful in the future.

"They are already in such a state, and you still want to drive them out? Are you deliberately trying to save their lives? How could a family like yours appear in Kaoshan Village?..."

When Xia Shengsheng heard that he was being driven out, he made up his mind. No matter how hard it was to be outside, it would be better than continuing to be tortured in their Liu family.

Looking at the four children surrounding her, she made an important decision.

"Are you willing to leave here with me, leave the Liu family? The days ahead may not be as good as they are here, but at least we can work hard together?"
