This Life's Song: The Genius Rune Master
Chapter 37 Bai Qingshu
The girl turned her back, then turned back slightly, nodding and looking elsewhere, pointing towards the fishing net.
Following her finger, everyone looked and saw that many people had already arrived.
"Whose net is this? Why not take it back and leave it lying around?" The woman holding the child was the first to express her doubt.
The old man with the cane, however, was focused on the object under the fishing net.
"Da Niu, go take a look. It looks like a person. See if they're alive. Since they've come to our village, we have to help take care of them, no matter if they're dead or alive."
"Okay~ Mr. Mo, I'll go take a look." The man called Da Niu was quite sturdy and taller than the others. After saying that, he went over and took down the fishing net.
The reason we sent him was because Da Niu was brave, strong, and powerful.
"Old Mo, it really is one person, but there are two of them." Da Niu finished speaking and removed the net and the seaweed stuck to his body.
Li Zhenzhen was lying on her side, and Lianxue was right behind her.
"What do you mean two people? Quickly check if they're still alive!" Old Mo asked hastily.
The crowd whispered among themselves, "Oh dear, how pitiful, I wonder whose it is."
"Could they be refugees? How tragic."
"Could they be mother and daughter?"
After Da Niu finished clearing the water plants, revealing two pale faces soaked in water, the villagers began to speculate.
Da Niu first placed his hand near the noses of the two women, then placed his hand near their carotid arteries. "Hey! Old Mo and the other woman are both alive, they still have a pulse and are breathing."
"Then quickly take them back and find a doctor to examine them." Old Mo walked up to them with his cane, looking at the two people: a child who looked to be nine or ten years old and a young woman in her prime. Fortunately, they were still alive.
"Oh! They're still alive! Come to my house then. It's just me and my mother, and it's a big and convenient place. Take them to my house." Only when the girl heard that the people were still alive did she dare to turn around and peek over.
Seeing that the girl's words made sense, Old Mo nodded, "Qingshu, you should go back and ask your mother first."
"Okay, I'll be right back." The girl said, then turned and ran away.
A middle-aged man carrying a medicine box walked over shortly after. "Where is he? Where is he?"
“Mr. Lian, he’s over there.” An old woman pointed.
Mr. Lian looked over and indeed saw two people, one big and one small. "Alright, let me take a look." After saying that, Mr. Lian walked over and began to take their pulses.
At this moment, the two of them were separated. Da Niu had already untied the strips of cloth and laid Lian Xue and Li Zhenzhen flat, with other young people helping as well.
Mr. Lian first took Lianxue's pulse, nodded and said, "Hmm, it's nothing serious. A few days of rest and some medicine should be enough."
Mr. Lian was taking Li Zhenzhen's pulse, his brows furrowed and his face full of worry. "It's strange that this girl was poisoned but the poison didn't reach her heart meridian, and she can still hold on for so long. It's just a bit difficult to handle."
"Is there any hope?" Old Mo asked.
"It can be saved, but not temporarily. Let's keep her on medication for now. Although the toxins haven't entered her heart meridian, her blood is already full of poison. We need a top-grade pill, which is quite difficult." Mr. Lian shook his head. This was the first time he had encountered such a patient.
"As long as they live, that's good enough. Consider it an act of kindness to save lives. Let's help them this once. They don't seem like truly wicked people," Old Mo nodded and said.
At this moment, Qing Shu arrived in a hurry with a middle-aged woman.
"Old Mo, I heard from the girl that you can send them to my house if you have nothing else to do. The child is right. We are both women, so there's nothing inconvenient about it. I don't need the food of these two children." The woman looked at Old Mo with a sincere expression.
It's clear that this woman is an honest and kind person.
A woman in a dark brown dress spoke up, "Don't be like that. We're all from the same village. We found it together, so how can we not help? We'll share the food, and you and your daughter can take care of it."
Another man with a scar on his face spoke up, "It's Qing Shu's mother. It's settled then. We're not short of these things."
"Since that's the case, Qing Shu's mother, you should agree. We can't let everyone down, and of course, we also feel sorry for these two children." Old Mo agreed with a smile.
"Alright, let's not stand on ceremony, let's hurry up and carry it to my house." Qing Shuniang hurriedly stepped aside.
Da Niu carried Li Zhenzhen on his back and walked into the village.
Another man picked up Lianxue and followed behind Da Niu.
Mr. Lian and Mr. Mo walked side by side.
Qing Shuniang led the way, and everyone quietly walked home, each returning to their own residence.
Qingshu looked at the contact with curiosity, wanting to reach out and touch it, but then hesitated and pulled back.
The group walked back like this. The whole village was divided into three rows, and the houses were very neat. Qing Shu's house was in the middle of the village.
Because the houses were all built in a north-south direction, and the river where they were located was to the south of the village, they passed a row of houses, came to the middle row, walked four or five houses to the west, and came to the door of a wooden house.
A fence enclosed a courtyard, where clothes were drying and about a dozen poultry were kept.
A puppy is taking a nap in its kennel.
Ascending a wooden staircase with handrails on both sides, Qing Shuniang opened the door and entered the house. She made up the bed, and Da Niu put her down.
"Auntie, I'll be going now." Da Niu scratched his head and said in a very simple and honest way.
"Da Niu, you can go back first. I'll call you if I need anything." Qing Shuniang
Lianxue was also put down.
Mr. Mo and Mr. Lian entered the room, and Mr. Lian carefully took their pulses again.
"Mr. Mo, that's enough. I'll go back and get some medicine for them." Mr. Lian watched as Mr. Mo stood up, bowed, and prepared to leave.
“Alright, I’ll go out with you. Qing Shu’s mother, I’m entrusting the two children to you.” Old Master Mo nodded and said another sentence to Qing Shu’s mother before turning around and leaving with Mr. Lian.
"Grandpa Mo, Mr. Lian, please take care," Qing Shu said politely, bowing as she watched the two of them leave.
"Mother, what should we do next?" Qing Shu looked at the two of them and then asked her mother.
"Go and tidy up the inner room. We'll wash them and change their clothes in a bit, then put them in that room." After saying that, Qing Shuniang went to the stove and started adding water to the pot.
They went to a storeroom on the west side of the house, took out some split pieces of wood, returned to the house, put them in the stove, lit a fire, and the wood made a crackling sound.
At this moment, a woman in her thirties came to the door and asked, "Is Sister-in-law Bai home?"
"Hey! I'm here~ Coming!" After adding the last piece of cake, Qing Shuniang patted herself twice and got up to open the door.
"Oh my, Sister Fei'er, what brings you here? Come in quickly," Qing Shuniang invited with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, I won't go inside. Look, these clothes are what I wore when I was young. I don't need them anymore. I wanted to give them to the young lady to change into." Fei'er said, handing the package in her hand to Qing Shuniang.
"There are still some clothes for our maids inside, and the little girl can wear them too. Let's leave it like this for now. I don't know if they'll like them. When they wake up, I'll take them to the market to choose for themselves." Fei'er said this specifically because she was worried that the two girls wouldn't like her clothes.
"Oh, it's very nice. I see it's never been worn before. Come in and sit down." Qing Shuniang said after looking through it, and reached out her left hand to pull Fei'er.
"No, sister-in-law, I'm worried about leaving the baby at home. You go ahead and do your work, I'll be right back." Fei'er said with a loving expression as she spoke of her child, then patted Bai's hand and left.
"Alright, Sister Fei'er, come over another day." He saw her to the door and then turned back into the house.
