After helping the wounded into Xiao Qinhao's room, Liu Rusi went to Huang's house for a meal. She had been concentrating so much on the operation that she didn't have the energy to cook.

Moreover, Xiao Qinhao was sent to Huang's house when he was recovering from his injuries, and he had already eaten at Huang's house. He had already eaten his son's meal, so he didn't need to miss out on his mother's meal.

"Mom! Is Dad's injury healed?" As soon as he saw Liu Rusi, little Qin Hao ran over anxiously and asked.

"I've already told you that's not your father." Liu Rusi said helplessly.

Little Qin Hao pouted, obviously not believing it.

Huang Saozi led Liu Rusi to sit down and eat, and asked in confusion: "Have you asked who he is? How do you know he is not Qin Lie?"

Liu Rusi then remembered that she was only focused on healing her wounds and did not ask for any information.

"Mom, has Dad eaten?" Little Qin Hao suddenly asked.

Liu Rusi was exhausted from correcting him for calling her dad, but she did ignore the wounded's feeding problem. She only gave him half a bowl of salt water after she carried him back...

"I'll go make some porridge and you can bring it back to him later." Mrs. Huang got up and made porridge.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mrs. Huang. I will kill a chicken and make a good meal at my house tomorrow at noon. You and your family, and those who helped us today, can come to my house for a meal." Liu Rusi said with a smile. Favors are something that should be reciprocated. With her deliberate management, many people in the village now have a good relationship with her.

"Oh! Why do you need to treat us to a meal for such a small matter? You are our family's benefactor! You saved my son and gave me a grandson!" Old Lady Huang wanted to worship Liu Rusi as a idol. She was a blessing to their family.

In fact, in this kind of mountain village, there are many rumors and gossips. Normally, she would be called a husband-killer and a woman who attracts many women. But because she had saved some people, especially the Huang family, everyone's impression of her was that she was a fortune-teller, and those rumors did not dare to attribute it to her.

After dinner, Liu Rusi returned home carrying the earthenware jar of porridge in her left hand and holding little Qin Hao's hand with her right hand.

As soon as they entered the Qin family's courtyard, little Qin Hao let go of Liu Rusi's hand and ran inside. Liu Rusi's mouth twitched. She felt a little sour. What's wrong? Doesn't he want his mother anymore?

"Dad!" After shouting loudly, he found that the person on the bed had fallen asleep, so Xiao Qinhao gently poked the person's face and called softly: "Dad...get up and eat."

"Qin Hao! I'm telling you again! This is not your father. Don't you remember what your father looks like?" Liu Rusi didn't know why she suddenly felt a surge of anger in her chest. How could he call someone else "dad"! How could Qin Lie be replaced!

This was the first time Liu Rusi got angry at Xiao Qinhao. He was frightened and immediately pouted with tears in his eyes: "Mother..."

Qin Lie and Liu Rusi both have big double eyelids, and Qin Hao has inherited this perfectly. The rest of his facial features are well-matched, and he looks like a delicate sculpture of jade. Anyone would feel sorry for him when he sees him crying in grievance, not to mention that she is his biological mother...

My anger immediately disappeared. Never mind. The child is still young. I will explain it slowly after I figure out the situation.

After coaxing little Qin Hao to stay in her room, Liu Rusi finally had time to pay attention to the injured. "Do you have the strength to sit up?"

"Yeah." The injured man on the bed opened his eyes at this time. He had just heard the mother and son quarreling, and he, who suddenly became a father, really didn't know whether he should wake up.

Liu Rusi reached out to help the wounded man to prevent him from hurting his wound, and moved the small table she used on her kang - the winter night was too cold without Qin Lie, so she built a kang for herself.

Seeing the wounded man start to drink the porridge with a spoon, Liu Rusi asked, "What's your name? Why are you injured?"

The injured man stopped moving, and after a while he slowly said, "I can't remember anything..."

Liu Rusi's implicit expectation was neither disappointed nor fulfilled. The chance was very small, probably the same as winning 10 million... but it was also possible, he really was back.

After finally coming to her senses, she forced herself to calm down. She didn't dare to hope...so, she decided to just treat him as a stranger with amnesia.

"Let me help you take a look." Liu Rusi's voice was low and hoarse. After she said it, she felt that it didn't sound like her own voice.

Seeing the wounded man nod slightly in agreement, she stepped forward and removed his jade crown that had long been loose, ran her fingers through his hair, and gently touched his head.

"If it hurts, just say it."

Without the support of imaging equipment, Liu Rusi could only check whether his head was injured by palpation. She checked from the forehead to the back of the head, but he did not respond.

"I'll check it again. I'll use a little more force this time. If it still hurts, tell me right away."

"it is good."

She pressed his forehead little by little with her ten fingers again. This time she did use more force, but he only felt a sense of comfort. If it weren't for his strong self-control, he would have hummed!

After checking again, Liu Rusi asked, "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." He didn't dare lie about the extent of his injury. This was a female doctor who could cut flesh and sew skin. If he said it hurt, she would just make a hole in his head.

"Well, drink the porridge quickly. I'm tired too." It was already dark and only moonlight was left. Liu Rusi decided to leave all the problems to tomorrow.

The wounded man hesitated for a moment, and looked at her with a pair of phoenix eyes in embarrassment. "Can you get me some water? I want to take a bath... Also, are there any clean clothes I can wear..."

"You can't take a shower now."

Liu Rusi was silent for a while. Actually, he could use a wet cloth to clean it, but it would easily open the wound if he wiped it himself, and she didn't want to wipe it for him. She didn't even want to let him wear Qin Lie's clothes... It's just that there is no other man of his stature in the whole village.

Finally, she compromised halfway and gave him the oldest set of clothes. She just wanted him to clean them. Why did she have so many demands?

After placing a toilet in the room of the injured, Liu Rusi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Taking care of people is really too troublesome! In addition to taking care of her own son, if he is not... then she must charge a high medical fee!

After washing up and returning to her room, little Qin Hao was already asleep. She didn't often sleep with her son, so it was nice for the mother and son to spend some time together occasionally.

Since he turned one year old, Qin Lie felt that he was in the way in this room, so he had his own room, which was the room Qin Lie lived in before that hot summer, and it was also the room where the injured person lived now...

Liu Rusi suddenly remembered that the one hundred taels that she and Qin Lie had buried were still in that room! But after being startled, she calmed down again. The jade crown of that person was probably worth several hundred taels. Besides, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

It was a dreamless night. When Liu Rusi woke up, little Qin Hao had already woken up, but he was still lying in her arms playing with her hair.

"Oh, why aren't you in a hurry to find your new father?" Liu Rusi joked.

"Mom~" Little Qin Hao twisted and turned in her arms, acting like a spoiled child. "Mom hasn't held Hao Hao to sleep in her arms for a long time."

"Oh, is that so? Then how about sleeping with mom these few days?"

"Okay!" Little Qin Hao's eyes lit up, his face full of joy from the bottom of his heart.

This was beyond Liu Rusi's expectations. She thought that Xiao Qin Hao was just pretending to be good to cheer her up because she got angry yesterday.

Liu Rusi thought about it and decided to ask directly: "Haohao, why do you think that man is your father? You have such a good memory, you should remember what your father looks like."

He twirled his little fingers around her hair, his eyes sparkling, "He's next to Daddy's grave. I've seen a butterfly emerging from a cocoon in a book. He may be Dad if he looks different."

Liu Rusi's breathing quickened. Children have wild imaginations, but is it really impossible? She herself is also a reborn person... However, such thoughts are like the ten million. She has never thought that she will not suffer from it... She dare not have such extravagant hopes.

Little Qinhao hugged her neck, rested his forehead on her collarbone, and said in a muffled voice: "Mom, I know he may not be Dad, but I hope he is."

"Why?" Liu Rusi asked softly.

"With Daddy here, no one dares to bully Mom."

Tears suddenly came to her eyes, and Liu Rusi quickly raised her hand to wipe them away. It turned out that he still remembered this matter. Well, he had such a good memory, how could he forget it.

In fact, besides the trolls, she had also encountered many other harassments, either overt or covert. The only one Qin Hao had seen was the trolls. She had never suffered any loss, because she was good at dealing with such things, but in this era she needed to spend more time on it... But she would occasionally think that during the seven years when Qin Lie was around, she didn't have to face these things.

After adjusting her breathing, Liu Rusi said calmly, "Did my mother get bullied?"

"No, mom beat him. But if dad is here, no annoying people will come." Little Qin Hao already has his own thoughts.

"Well, people like that second-rate guy won't come. But there are all kinds of people in this world. Some are strong, some are smart, some are both strong and smart, and among these people there are also those who like to bully others."

"No one can guarantee that they won't be bullied. What we should do is to work hard to make ourselves stronger, rather than looking for a strong person to protect us, because you never know if the person you find will bully you in return."

Liu Rusi actually doesn’t like to talk about these big principles, but this is her own child, and there are some principles she wants him to know.

After hearing these words, Xiao Qinhao thought hard for a while, then looked up and said, "Then I will work hard to become stronger and protect mom. I will definitely not bully mom!"

"Well! Baby is so great!" Liu Rusi felt her heart warmed instantly and kissed little Qin Hao on the forehead.

Little Qin Hao was so happy that his mother gave him the seal of incense. He was so happy that his eyebrows were not visible when he heard Liu Rusi say, "Then hurry up and get up and do exercises. After washing up, drink the milk and eat the eggs."

The little face suddenly turned from sunny to cloudy, but he still got up obediently, changed his clothes, and ran to the yard to do exercises.

Liu Rusi changed her clothes and went to the cowshed. It was a good decision to raise cattle. At that time, she wanted to free up some labor and make a lot of money by selling cattle. After Qin Hao came, she found that she had a fixed source of milk. It was not a dairy cow. The milk was not enough to sell, but it was enough for her family.

After squeezing out enough food for two people, Liu Rusi remembered that there was a wounded person at home, so she squeezed out one more person. After adding hay and grain to the cow, Liu Rusi returned to the kitchen and started steaming buns, heating milk, and boiling eggs in a big pot.

While waiting for breakfast to be finished, the mother and son stood under the eaves together and brushed their teeth with a wooden-handled, fine-bristled toothbrush dipped in fine salt.

"Gululu! Pah!" After brushing his teeth, Xiao Qinhao suddenly asked, "What should I call the injured person? Does he want to brush his teeth?"

"Gululu! Pah!"

"Call him uncle, we don't have his toothbrush." ​​This kind of toothbrush is difficult to make. It takes a long time to select the fine brown bristles, and it takes half a day to make one. There are two new ones at home as replacements so that they will not be used by the wounded.

Xiao Qinhao sat at the dining table and started eating. Then Liu Rusi took breakfast to the injured person and knocked on the door.

"Come in." The wounded man inside spoke in a different tone. Liu Rusi raised her eyebrows and pushed the door open.

The wounded man seemed to have woken up a long time ago. Because of his injured back, he couldn't lean on anything, so he sat straight on the bed. He looked very uncomfortable. Liu Rusi walked up to him and raised her hand to check his forehead temperature with the back of her hand.

"You have a fever. I'm not good at taking pulses and prescribing medicine, and I don't have much medicine here. I'll find a doctor to see you later." Liu Rusi frowned.

"No need!" The wounded man said in a very tough tone. He seemed to react after he finished speaking. He paused and said softly, "I don't trust a doctor I don't know."

Liu Rusi was a person who never forced himself. In other words, it was very troublesome to hire a doctor for him, and...

"Those doctors in the city are really not that good."

She studied clinical medicine, which is Western medicine, but Chinese medicine is also one of the required courses. The professor who teaches it is really great, so she also believes that Chinese medicine is effective.

It's a pity that Chinese medicine is a subject that requires a lot of experience, and the teaching is just a brief introduction. She only learned what medicines there are, what is poisonous, and she only remembered one prescription for treating colds.

However, just this one prescription made her realize the level of those doctors. The villagers asked them to treat their colds, but they were not as good as her who copied from the textbook.
