Just when Shen Li didn't know how to respond, Lan stood up with a smile, walked over to the old lady, and said humorously, "You are really biased. We have been here for such a long time, and I haven't heard you give us anything good. But as soon as Li'er got here, your goodies popped up."

"I'm just partial, so what?" The old lady was in a good mood today, and her laughter was very loud. "This child and I are destined to be together. I'm happy to see her. She was sent by God to save me, an old woman. For this child, I'd gladly give away all my treasures. But I won't give them to you, leaving you feeling anxious and worried. Hahahaha."

Everyone started laughing, and the scene suddenly became lively.

Lan took the opportunity to say, "Old Ancestor, you don't know this, but our niece isn't very good with words. If you let me sit by your side today, I'd happily go out and brag about it for three days straight. But if you let Li'er sit by your side, let me put it this way, it would be more painful than you whipping her dozens of times. If you really care about her, let her find a place to stay by herself. Otherwise, I guarantee you won't be able to call her over again next time."

The old lady held Shen Li's hand, still feeling that she had not said enough and was reluctant to let her go.

Two neatly-dressed girls came in. One had a round face and wore a green gauze skirt, and the other looked a little younger and wore a light yellow brocade.

When the two came in, Liu smiled and said, "Look at these two naughty girls from our family. They were just outside welcoming other girls and haven't greeted the ladies yet."

"Yonghua, Yongxiang, come and pay your respects to the ladies,"

The two girls quickly leaned forward to greet him.

"Come and meet your Shen family again..." Liu paused, and looked at Lan with a questioning look, "I wonder how old Miss Shen is this year, and when was her birthday?"

Lan said, "This year is the sixteenth, the sixth day of the first lunar month."

Liu smiled and said, "What a lucky day! No wonder this child looks so blessed. Yonghua, Yongxiang, this is your sister Li, the one who saved your grandmother. Come and pay your respects."

When the two girls heard this, their eyes widened.

I knew it was a girl who saved my grandmother, but I didn't expect it to be so...

How should I put it? She was unexpectedly more beautiful and elegant than they had anticipated.

"Hello, sister. Thank you for saving my grandmother. I can never repay you for saving my life. Yan Yonghua greets you." The round-faced man clasped his hands together, and instantly felt something was wrong. He bowed again, his admiring eyes lingering on Shen Li's face.

"Sister, you are so awesome! Mother said you are our family's benefactor. I even specially prepared a gift to see you today."

The little girl spoke in a soft and sweet voice, which made people feel comfortable.

Shen Li hurriedly helped them up and said gently, "It's just a small favor. You're welcome."

Seeing that the girls were getting along well, the old lady said to Shen Li, "Good girl, don't mind their noise. Go walk around in the garden with your sisters and come back to me. Our homemade flower cakes are famous. I've saved a few for you. Others can't buy them."

Liu smiled, Yonghua and Yongxiang also smiled, and they winked at Shen Li. Yongxiang whispered, "Grandma loves to eat it, and she won't give it to anyone else. She's waiting for you to come and give it to you."

Fang Mingwan also smiled. "Just now, the ancestor gave me two pieces to taste. They are indeed delicious. Next spring, we will go to the Marquis' Mansion to learn how to make these flower cakes from the ancestor. The ancestor, you must teach me."

"I will teach you, of course. Even if I don't teach others, I will teach you. You little rascal, you're just like your father. When he was little, your father loved eating the flower cakes I made. In order to have an extra piece, he beat my eldest son until he cried and screamed."

Everyone burst into laughter. There were more people outside the house who came to pay their respects to the old lady. Yong Hua and Yong Xiang hurriedly took Shen Li and Fang Mingwan's hands and slipped out.

"Sister Li, I heard from my mother that when you rescued my grandmother, she had already passed away. Is that true?"

"Yes, it's true."

"Sister, you're amazing," Yong Xiang's tone was filled with admiration. "I also want to learn that skill of saving lives. Sister Li, can you teach me? If I learn it, I won't be afraid of Grandma's next attack. I will save Grandma before the imperial physician arrives."

"Sure, do you want to learn?"

"I do." Yong Xiang was so happy when he saw Shen Li agreed so readily that he couldn't help but hug Shen Li's arm and rub his little face against hers.

This child is pure and innocent, with a heart full of filial piety. Shen Li touched her face and said, "It will be hard to learn this. Can you persist?"

"Yes," Yongxiang's eyes revealed the determination that was unique to the Guanyong Marquisate. "For my grandmother, I can persevere no matter how much hardship I have to endure."

Shen Li smiled and touched her head. "Sister is just teasing you. This is not that difficult. I can teach you later. If you are not proficient in it, you can come to me and I will teach you a few more times."

"Really? Thank you, Sister Li, that's great."

Yong Hua also came over and said to Shen Li: "And me, I want to learn too, teach me too."

"And me," Fang Mingwan hurriedly followed behind him, "They say your method of saving lives is unique, I want to learn it too. If someone ever needs it, at least I can save a life like my cousin did."

"Okay, find a quiet place and let the girl play the patient. I can teach you now."

"Ah? Is it that simple?"

"Well, it's not complicated, but it's not simple either," Shen Li began to recall the first aid knowledge she had learned. "There are several types of patients. If the heart suddenly stops, like the old lady did that day, if first aid can be given within four minutes, everything will be in time..."

"Four minutes? Sister, what does four minutes mean?" Yongxiang asked curiously with his eyes wide open.

"Uh," Shen Li was stunned by the question, and after thinking for a while, she said, "About half a cup of tea. Cardiac arrest requires emergency treatment within this time."

The girls listened carefully and nodded quickly.

Shen Li continued: "If the airway is blocked, the first aid time cannot exceed four to ten minutes."

"Sister Li, what is the airway? How can it be considered blocked?"

Shen Li suddenly felt very tired. The ancients were very different from modern people in many aspects. They expressed the same thing in different ways, making communication a bit difficult.

"For example, if you choke on your food, it's because the food accidentally gets into your airway, blocking it and making it impossible to breathe. Emergency treatment is needed immediately. If you miss that timeframe, even the arrival of a great immortal won't be of any use."

As they were talking, they came to a thatched hut.

Shen Li and Fang Mingwan stopped and looked at the house curiously.

"This is where my grandfather watered the vegetables, planted the crops, and kept his tools," the two Yan girls said with a smile. "The bamboo house next to it is where my grandmother spun yarn and wove cloth. Sister Li, would you like to go in and take a look?"

"it is good."

Shen Li had never seen a loom before, so she was really curious.

Stepping inside, the interior was simply furnished, with a loom with unfinished cloth on it, a small bamboo couch, a few bamboo stools, and a coffee table. The breeze blew by, bringing with it the faint fragrance of bamboo leaves, which was quite pleasant.

"When grandma is tired from weaving, she will lie on the small couch for a while. It's cool in the summer and she can take a nap here. Even we like to stay here." Yonghua said.

It can be seen that they are very satisfied with their current lives.

My father and uncles are all at the border, and my brothers are also gaining experience in the military camp, so our family is simple.

Although they are from the top family of the Great Zhou, there is no air of pampering at all. Both sisters are very comfortable people.

"Sister Li is teaching us first aid, so shouldn't we find a quiet place? This is fine. I'll ask the girl to come over and act out the patient. Bring some paper and pen, too. In case you can't remember it, you can write it down on paper and review it a few times when you have time."
