The little cook in the book has fallen asleep
Chapter 66 Picking up a child
"Second brother, third brother, fourth brother, you must be careful and don't be reluctant to spend money when you go there. I, your sister, have money and I have to study hard!" Cheng Yu patted his pocket with his chubby little hands.
Cheng Yiyu hugged her and asked her to hug Cheng Zhiwen and the others' necks while saying goodbye to them one by one.
"Okay, got it. We will definitely write to you when we get there!" Cheng Zhiwen really liked his sister's nagging and couldn't help but touch Cheng Yu's fluffy head.
"Uncle, remember to help our family find a big house. I'll give you the money!" Cheng Yu naturally knew that Zheng Yexi was good to her and liked her, so after hugging her brothers, she leaned her upper body towards Zheng Yexi and acted coquettishly towards him.
Zheng Yexi had no choice but to reach out and help Cheng Yu up, letting Cheng Yu's upper body lie on Zheng Yexi's neck. Her furry little head rubbed against him, and Zheng Yexi's heart melted.
"Okay, okay, uncle will find you a big house, and your whole family can live in it! This way, uncle can see our daughter every day!" When seeing the little girl, Zheng Yexi's voice automatically lowered.
"Little brother, have a safe journey!" said Old Mrs. Zhao with tears in her eyes.
Zheng Yexi also asked her if she wanted to return to Beijing to settle down, but she was unwilling. She had lived such a peaceful life for most of her life. If she was asked to return to Beijing and put on the fake mask again, she would not be used to it!
"Okay, second sister, we'll wait for you in Beijing!" Zheng Yexi did not force his second sister.
He read the essays that Cheng Yiyu and the other two had written for the provincial examination. He felt that there was no major problem and that his second sister should be going to the capital soon.
"Xiaojiu, come earlier. Your cousin is waiting for you in Beijing to take me to make money!" Cheng Yiyu and the others went to Beijing, so Zheng Yexi asked Zheng Rong to go back with him.
Originally Zheng Rong was happy to be able to stay here with her aunt, but in the end she had to go back, crying her eyes out.
In the end, Cheng Yu promised her that he would take her to Beijing to make a lot of money. Only then did she stop crying, but she was still very unhappy and had no interest at all.
"Okay, wait for me, cousin, I will come to you earlier!" Cheng Yu thought about it and decided that she could only get her private customization done earlier.
"Let's go back, grandpa and grandma, take care everyone!" After Cheng Yiyu put Cheng Yu in his father's arms, he suppressed his reluctance and took their servant to the carriage and left.
Speaking of the book boy, my eldest brother has been out escorting people since he got engaged and has not returned. The three sisters-in-law of the Cheng family have not set up stalls either.
Then Cheng Yu was bored so he took his cousin Zheng Rong to the home of Wei County Magistrate to meet Mrs. Wei. When Mrs. Wei heard that Cheng Yu wanted to buy a servant, she enthusiastically took Cheng Yu to the pawnshop.
When the people from the pawnbroker shop saw Madam Wei coming, and heard that she wanted to buy a little boy who could read and write or was a little smart, they dared not keep anything to themselves and brought out a bunch of little boys who were specially trained to be prostitutes in the backyard.
There were more than ten boys around ten years old. When Cheng Yu said he would only let them be servants, ten of them stayed behind, saying they were going to the countryside, and only six were left.
Finally, it was said that there were no other servants in the Cheng family, only three were left. These three children were sold here because their family was poor, and they did not want to be prostitutes at all, so someone bought them and heard that they were to be servants, and they were very happy.
Cheng Yu also took the opportunity to buy a few servants who knew how to cook and embroider. The pawnshop in the county town was small, and there were not many servants of this kind.
After careful screening by Cheng Yu and Zheng Rong, only six older women were left as embroiderers. They were all poor people who had fled from Jiangnan. They had good embroidery skills and looked honest.
Cheng Yu, who was in charge of cooking, valued the two older ladies. Their nails were clean, and their clothes, although washed to a bleached color, were clean and tidy.
Cheng Yu also fell in love with a family. The man was called Liu Feng, who was about the same age as Cheng Shang and knew some martial arts. He had escaped from Jiangnan and brought his wife Shen Lan and a son and a daughter with him. The daughter, Liu Hui, was six years old and could comb her hair very well; the son, Liu Cheng, was four years old and was eloquent; and his wife was a good soup stewer. He was exactly the person Cheng Yu wanted.
Although the price for the four of them was a bit expensive, Cheng Yu still bought it.
As a modern person, she naturally believes in equality for all, but as someone who grew up in an orphanage, she understands human nature too well. No matter how good she is to these people, she has to keep the indenture in her own hands!
"Grandpa, Madam, let's go back!" Liu Feng drove the carriage up to Old Lady Cheng and the others and said.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work!" said Mr. Cheng.
When Liu Feng and others came, he was very uncomfortable with it. Later, Nannan said that he would get used to it slowly and just treat them as his own family.
"It's my duty, old man." Liu Feng put down the horse stool and all the members of the Cheng family got on the carriage.
Since it was confirmed that his second brother and his family were going to the capital, Cheng Yu bought two more carriages. Now there is plenty of space for the whole family.
Cheng Jin and Cheng Shang drove another carriage. This carriage was carrying Old Master Cheng and his friends, so it was not very fast. After a while, Cheng Jin and his friends disappeared.
What made Cheng Yu most angry was that she originally wanted to take out the remaining powerful pill to give to Yuan Heng, but Xiao Ou said that she had not met the final destined person, so the system could not redeem it!
To compensate her, the system gave her a bottle of health pills for free, which contained about twelve pills. She could only give it to her adoptive father.
Each member of the Cheng family received one pill, and there were three left. She was afraid that she would not be able to exchange them in the future, so she exchanged them all at once.
"Liu Feng, why did you stop?" Old Master Cheng's words brought Cheng Yu back to his senses.
"Grandpa, it's the eldest master and the others who have stopped in front!" Liu Feng was sitting outside, so he saw Cheng Jin and the other three were surrounding something.
"Then stop, I'll go take a look!" Old Master Cheng looked at Cheng Yu who was drowsy in Old Lady Cheng's arms, and immediately stood up slightly and said.
"Grandpa, I'll drive the carriage there directly and go with you to see it!" Liu Feng took a look at the road and said to Grandpa Cheng.
"Uncle Liu, hurry up, let me take a look too!" Cheng Xiaoba leaned out from the carriage and couldn't help but sit next to Liu Feng.
Liu Feng reached out and held Cheng Xiaoba, letting him sit down. After making sure it was safe, he continued to drive the car.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Cheng Xiaoba lay on the carriage frame and looked at Cheng Tian and the others.
"Yes, what are you three brothers doing?" Old Master Cheng also lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked.
"Dad, there is a child here, covered in blood, but with no wounds on his body. What should we do now?" Cheng Tian raised his head and looked at them.
I didn't see him when I passed by just now. How come there is a person lying here in just one hour?
Back to two quarters of an hour ago, Yuwen Jue had always been curious about Cheng Xiaojiu and wanted to know what she looked like.
So, just when he had almost recovered, he sneaked out of the provincial capital with a few guards and went to the Cheng family in Qingshan Village.
However, not long after they left, a branch of the Yuwen family learned about this and quickly sent a large number of troops to hunt them down.
Faced with the sudden enemy, Yuwen Jue and his guards fought hard, but in the end two fists were no match for four hands. Yuwen Jue was also hit by the killer in the chaos and was seriously injured.
Seeing that the situation was critical, the guards decided to hide the injured Yuwen Jue in a safe area beside the official road. After carefully hiding Yuwen Jue, they led the killer away alone and left in the opposite direction, intending to seek rescue.
At the same time, Cheng Jin and Cheng Shang were driving their horses along the official road. When they passed by here, the three sisters-in-law of the Cheng family happened to roll up the side window.
They casually glanced at the path beside them, and were shocked to find a child covered in blood lying under a big tree beside the path, covered casually with branches!
When they came closer and took a closer look, they found that the child had no obvious wounds on his body, but was covered in blood.
They were worried that the child had broken his bones and did not dare to move him easily for fear of causing more serious injuries.
"Third Master, we encountered this situation when we fled famine before. I can take a look to see if he has any broken bones!" Liu Feng fled here from Jiangnan. He had no skills at all, and his family had died on the road.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Brother Liu. Take a look. If there are no broken bones, we will send him to the clinic!" When Cheng Tian heard Liu Feng say this, he immediately made way.
"Old master, three masters, there is nothing wrong with the child's bones. He may be unconscious due to internal injuries!" After getting off the carriage, Liu Feng immediately touched the child's bones, and after finding no damage, he said to the Cheng family.
"Let's go, take him to the hospital! Come, bring him to me!" Old Master Cheng looked at the carriage, then at the child, who was only about five years old and a little thin, so the carriage should be big enough for him.
Then he immediately sat in and asked the three Cheng Tian brothers to carry it onto the carriage and hand it to him.
"Dad, give it to us!" Cheng Jin was a little worried about his father. It takes fifteen minutes to get to the clinic from here!
"Stop talking nonsense and go." Seeing the child's face getting worse and worse, he said to the three Cheng Jin brothers.
"Okay, Xiao Ba, come with us." Cheng Tian picked up Xiao Ba, who was sitting on the carriage, and took him back to their carriage. They followed Grandpa Cheng and his carriage to the county town.
After a lot of trouble, Cheng Yu woke up a long time ago.
Cheng Yu looked at the little boy of four or five years old in front of him, and immediately rummaged through the space, took out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Nannan, what is this?" asked Old Mrs. Cheng curiously.
"Be good to him! Save his life!" Cheng Yu said proudly. The pill she took was the health-preserving pill, which should be able to save his life.
Cheng Xiaoqi picked up the water bag and fed the little boy a sip. Seeing that the boy's face began to regain its rosy color, the Cheng family felt relieved.
"Sister, you took the wrong medicine bottle!" Xiao Ou stood on Cheng Yu's shoulder and spoke to Cheng Yu with her mind.
"What? What did I take?" Cheng Yu asked. No way? It can't be a powerful pill!
"Sister, what you took out was the powerful pill!" Xiao Ou said guiltily. He didn't check it because he couldn't take it out and use it last time!
"Ah? Oh!" Cheng Yu thought about it and decided, forget it, this boy must be the one she is destined to be with.
"Is that it?" Xiao Ou asked.
"Yes, that's it! He won't die, will he? Let's do a medical checkup!" Cheng Yu asked, asking Xiao Ou to start the medical checkup.
"It's nothing, I was hit in the chest by a palm strike, scratched by an arrow, it's poisonous.
But just now your powerful pills and spiritual spring water accidentally detoxified him, now just take some medicine to recuperate!" Xiao Ou said as he looked at the test results in front of him.
"That's good!" Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that she would feed the baby to death!
"It's okay, you helped him detoxify, now just let him recuperate!" Doctor Bai said to the Cheng family after taking their pulse.
He was startled when he saw Mr. Cheng coming in holding a child. He thought someone in the Cheng family was injured.
As a result, he was so frightened when he saw that the injured person was his young master. He immediately crawled to the child and stretched out his hand to feel his pulse.
The young master was poisoned, but the poison was cured! Shouldn't he be recuperating at home? Why is he here?
"I want to go back with Grandpa Cheng and the others. Please ask my mother to pick me up!" Yu Wen Jue originally just wanted to come and see Cheng Yu, but now that he saw him, he selfishly wanted to go back with the Cheng family.
"This... Young Master, this I..." Doctor Bai originally wanted to say that he couldn't make a decision.
"Then I won't treat him. I will be hunted down even if I cure him!" Yuwen Jue was really angry this time. If the Yuwen family is not clean, then he will cut off those people's hands!
"Young Master, please allow me to discuss this with the Cheng family!" Doctor Bai knew that his young master was really angry, so he could only try his best to coax him.
"Mr. Cheng, can I ask you a favor?" Doctor Bai asked Mr. Cheng with a smug look on his face.
"Okay, you tell me. As long as I can do it, I will do it without hesitation!" Old Master Cheng patted his chest and assured Doctor Bai.
So, when the Cheng family returned, they had one more child...
