At that time, the only person who had stretched out his hand to him, now that he had confessed all his secrets to him, he had already made a secret decision in his heart, and he drew the little doctor closer to become his own person who could talk to him.

Even if it is difficult for others, he will still make the little doctor nod to him.

Ou Zixi put his hand on his shoulder, trying to push him away, but hearing his whisper in his ear, almost pleading, finally he softened and stopped his hand.

Lu Jingnian's kiss had already moved to his lips, licking gently along the line of his lips, Ou Zixi trembled slightly in his arms, and now he couldn't exert any strength to push.

Feeling that the little doctor under him had relaxed his vigilance, Lu Jingnian bit his lips lightly, and the tip of his tongue pushed in when he was in pain.

The sweet taste was as sweet as he imagined, and he licked almost every part of the little doctor's mouth forcefully. Only when Ou Zixi couldn't bear it and his face turned red, he reluctantly let go, and finally licked him. Lu Jingnian touched his lips with the silver thread pulled out from the corner of his mouth, and said solemnly with a smile, "I won't force you, I will wait until the day you accept me sincerely."

Ou Zixi closed his eyes and gasped for breath, but he was speechless for a long time. Of course, he didn't know how to answer him at all.

☆, become angry from embarrassment

After dawn, Ou Zixi opened his eyes according to the daily biological clock habit, but he was stunned for a moment, and the weight of another person was pressed on his arms, which made him a little dazed for a while, and then he slowly remembered what happened last night in a daze. The thing, the people who said they wouldn't force themselves hugged themselves from head to toe, they had almost reached the last step, and they were even forced by him to vent out in his hands.

Thinking of his loss of composure when he was distracted and infatuated in the end, Ou Zixi's face flushed completely, and he lost his temper at the moment. He directly pushed away the arm that was still pressing on him, and sat up.

After his action, Lu Jingnian also woke up, rubbed his messy hair, and asked him mutteringly: "It's still early, can't you go to sleep and get up later?"

For him, this was the most peaceful sleep he had in the past three days.

"It's getting late, I'll go to the fields later, and then I'll go to the pharmacy."

"Your feet..."

"I can walk." His foot was not broken, it was just hurt and numb yesterday before Lu Jingnian carried it on his back, since he can walk now, he doesn't want to bother others.

Lu Jingnian felt a little helpless towards his indifferent attitude of rejecting others thousands of miles away. He was quite cooperative when he was gentle last night, but why did he change his face in just one night.

So he also sat up: "I'll go with you."

"Do not……"

As soon as he said the refusal, Lu Jingnian cut it off for him. He smiled and insisted: "I said I will go with you, so I will go with you."

"……whatever."

Ou Zixi opened the door of the yard, but was surprised to see someone sitting on the stone slab outside with his back to the door. The person who came was the third uncle's grandson, Maodou'er.

Ou Zixi called him, "Why are you sitting here so early in the morning?"

Maodou'er turned her head, her eyes were red, she looked at him, and whimpered, "Doctor Ou, go and save my mother, she is dying... woo woo..."

Ou Zixi was a little surprised when he heard that, Lu Jingnian followed him, put a hand on his body, and before he could speak, he asked, "Did your grandfather ask you to come?"

"My grandfather won't let me." Mao Douer shook his head, and then begged Ou Zixi: "Doctor Ou, go and save my mother, if you don't go and save her, she will die..."

Sure enough, the third uncle was so angry that he was lying on the bed because of Wang Xiaoqing, and he refused to ask Ou Zixi to see him. It seemed that he was completely annoyed. He wouldn't sneak up to find Ou Zixi by himself.

"Where's your dad?"

"I had a big fight with my grandpa and said that I don't care about the life and death of the family in the future, so I left again last night." Mao Douer wiped his eyes while talking.

Ou Zixi pursed his lips, thought for a while, turned around, went in, took a medicine box, and was about to follow Mao Douer when he came out. Lu Jingnian hurriedly pulled him back, "You really are going."

"You can't just ignore death."

And even though Third Aunt Wang's fate in this field was her own fault, they were somewhat responsible. They just wanted to teach her and the village chief a lesson, but if someone died, Ou Zixi's own conscience would not be able to get over it.

Lu Jingnian had no choice but to know that Ou Zixi was soft-hearted and could only let him go, so he followed him, fearing that those unruly people would bully Ou Zixi again.

But he was wrong this time. The third uncle’s house is deserted today, and the gate of the courtyard is closed. Those relatives and villagers who are close to him on weekdays are not here. Of course, such a shameful thing happened to their house I don't have the nerve to publicize it everywhere, but it's not uncommon to hide my shame behind closed doors.

Mao Douer opened the door and led them in. Only Aunt Wang and Uncle Wang were there at home. One was lying on the bed moaning to death, and the other was sitting in the living room sulking.

Seeing Ou Zixi and Mao Douer coming in, the third uncle said angrily, "What are you doing here?"

Before Lu Jingnian rushed to speak, Ou Zixi tugged at his sleeve and said first, "Modouer asked me to come, I'll go after looking at Third Aunt's injuries."

"Do not……"

"I said, Uncle, you'd better stop talking about being brave. If your daughter-in-law really disappeared like this, it would be a life. I heard that the third aunt was married from the county. If your mother's family pursues it, you I'm afraid it's a lot of trouble."

Lu Jingnian mocked coldly, the third uncle's face turned livid, he turned his eyes away but didn't say any more.

Ou Zixi didn't say a word, just followed Mao Douer into it.

Lu Jingnian didn't bother to go in, so he stood on the threshold of the living room, watching the scenery outside boredly, then turned his head and saw the third uncle coughing non-stop, so he couldn't help shaking his head, wanting to save face and suffer.

The third uncle tremblingly stretched out his hand to pour water, but the water glass was not held firmly, and it was spilled again. He was discouraged at the moment, lowered his head in sadness, and wiped away his tears. Lu Jingnian looked at him with tears , suddenly felt that this old man was pitiful, his son was unfilial, his wife stole others, and his granddaughter was also a careless person, who would not live in peace even at an old age.

After thinking for a while, he walked in, helped him pick up the dropped cup and poured water in front of him again, then sat down on the chair beside him, raised his chin, and asked him: "Where is Zixi?" You have lived in this village for quite a few years, and you personally decided to kiss your granddaughter's baby, do you really believe that he is the kind of person who deliberately gossips everywhere to ruin Xiaoqing's reputation for revenge?"

The third uncle sucked his nose, looked at him with cloudy eyes, and there was a little doubt in his eyes.

Lu Jingnian smiled: "Don't you think that your village head has a bad attitude towards Zixi recently?"

The third uncle frowned, but didn't speak.

"Cunchang Wang lied to Zixi by forging a fake contract before. If I hadn't exposed him, he would have cheated Zixi of all the money he sold for Sanqi. He was dissatisfied with Zixi, and he was afraid that we would sue him. You want to go to jail and drive us away in a hurry, so you spread the news about Xiaoqing outside. First, Zixi’s wife stole someone before she got married. He has no face to stay here. Those people in the village kicked him out." Lu Jingnian shook his head again as he spoke, "As for why he knew about Xiaoqing, I have to ask your good daughter-in-law."

The third uncle's face turned green when he heard it, and he was obviously angry again. Although the third uncle Wang didn't say who the adulterer was in public yesterday, he still yelled after he closed the door and quarreled with the third uncle who thought he was ashamed. He said it, and he was indeed the same as Third Uncle Wang. Although the third uncle was the so-called "patriarch" and had a lot of prestige among the villagers, and the village chief treated him respectfully, in fact, he still didn't dare to take the title of Village Chief Wang. What's the matter, I am the only one who has suffered from being dumb, that's why I'm so angry. Now that Lu Jingnian said that Xiaoqing's matter is known to everyone, he is even more angry, and, He could only sulk.

Lu Jingnian continued: "Actually, Zixi is really unlucky. He was bullied by people in your village. It was your granddaughter who messed around outside. You still have the face to blame him... Anyway, you don't care whether you believe it or not. Anyway, I Even if I tell you like this, I don't expect you to give Zixi a fair word, and you can't be the master of this, and you can't do anything to the village chief."

The third uncle was still silent, but his expression was different from when they came in just now. Ou Zixi also came out of the room, nodded at Lu Jingnian, then took out a few packs of medicine, and released the third uncle On the table in front of you: "You decoct this medicine and drink it twice a day. After two or three days, your illness will be cured. If it is not enough, ask Maodouer to get it from me. Third aunt and I showed her the medicine. Drink it The medicine was also given to Mao Douer."

After speaking, seeing the third uncle still ignored me, but it was fine if he didn't refuse the medicine, and turned around to leave.

"Xiaoqing's matter...really didn't you say it outside?"

When he opened his mouth suddenly, Ou Zixi stopped in his tracks and replied, "I never said that." Then he followed Lu Jingnian back without further explanation.

After leaving the door of the third uncle's house, Lu Jingnian smiled and put his arms on Ou Zixi's shoulders: "I said, little doctor, you are kind-hearted, right?" .

Ou Zixi shook his head and didn't say any more.

Seeing that he ignored him, Lu Jingnian started to talk again: "I just transferred the money to your cousin for you."

Ou Zixi nodded, and finally said two words: "Thank you."

Helpless and unwilling, Lu Jingnian took his hand and said with a bitter face, "I said, little doctor, you can repay your grievances against the third uncle and his family with kindness. Is this the case with me? Could it be that I offended you more than they offended you?" ruthless?"

To offend is to offend, but the way of offending is completely different. Ou Zixi felt sulky when he thought that he was letting him eat and drink, and saw that he was holding his hand and did not let go. Before they entered the house, there were already people around. Zhang Wang quickly shook off his hand: "Pay attention to the influence."

"You don't care about them."

Ou Zixi rolled his eyes at him, turned around and went into the yard.

The little doctor was like this, because of what happened last night, Lu Jingnian chased him in, stopped him, and was about to say something more, when an uninvited guest appeared at the gate of the yard, hesitatingly looking like he wanted to enter but refused to enter.

Lu Jingnian finally came to his senses, and greeted with a smile: "Hey, Village Chief Wang, you figured it out so quickly? Are you planning to come and talk to us about contracting the mountain land?"

Gritting his teeth, Village Chief Wang asked, "How much can you offer?"

"Of course this is negotiable~" Lu Jingnian gave Ou Zixi a smug smile and led him inside.

☆, Promise made at the head of the grave

After entering the door, the village head didn't talk nonsense with them, and got straight to the point: "The area of ​​the mountain top is 480 mu. According to 20 yuan per mu per year, the contract period is 30 years, a total of 28 yuan, and it will be paid in one lump sum."

Lu Jingnian took a look at the contract he had drafted, and then smiled: "Cunchang Wang, I said you still bully us and don't know the price? Are you trying to deceive us?"

Village Chief Wang's face turned ugly again: "What do you mean by that?"

"It's not that we haven't inquired about the contracted price of wasteland in the nearby villages. The mountain in your village has been left unused for decades. According to the average price, it is only six yuan per mu at most, and less than one hundred thousand yuan for 480 mu in 30 years. "

Village Chief Wang's face turned red and green, and he didn't expect to be exposed immediately, so he said impatiently: "The price is too low, I can't explain it to other villagers."

Ou Zixi also took the contract over to read, thought for a while, and asked, "Don't you need more than two-thirds of the villagers in the village to sign the contract to be valid? Have you told anyone else?"

Obviously not. If you really told the people in the village that the ancestral graves they originally reserved would be contracted out, the village chief Wang threw two more materials to them, and said angrily: "There is a representative of the villagers' congress here." Records, there are villagers' signatures on it, and the certificate of the villagers' representatives from the village committee agreeing to the contract, with this and the contract, you can go directly to the town to complete the formalities."

"These signatures can't be signed by you, right?" Lu Jingnian looked suspiciously at him, there was no way, the village head had a criminal record, it was hard for them not to doubt him.

"It can't be true!" The village head exclaimed angrily.

However, besides him, the part-time village head and secretary, the village committee also has a village head, who is also his cousin. It is really not difficult to make these two things. As for signatures, most people in the village are illiterate. He could be tricked by finding some excuse, but Ou Zixi still hesitated, and asked Lu Jingnian, "How is it?"

Lu Jingnian also hesitated for a moment, and said to the village chief: "At most, I will give you two yuan per mu of land, no more. If you agree, we will go to your place to sign the contract in three days' time."

Gritting his teeth, the village chief agreed, left a copy for them, and went back.

Ou Zixi was still a little worried: "He made these things, will there be any problems?"

"Just ask a lawyer." Lu Jingnian took pictures of the materials with his mobile phone and sent them directly to Oscar, asking him to ask someone. Then he smiled and said to Ou Zixi: "Don't worry about it, we Why don't you just go to that mountain and have a look? If you want to contract the mountain land, you have to go to the field to inspect it, right?"

Ou Zixi thought about it and nodded. He often went there to visit the graves of his grandma and father, but he had never been to the barren hill next to him.

So after lunch, the two packed up and set off. The mountain looked not far behind the back mountain, but it still took a lot of effort to walk there, so they still had to ride a tricycle, but Ou Zixi His foot hurt and he couldn't get up, so only Lu Jingnian had to bite the bullet. Fortunately, it wasn't too difficult. After trying a few times, he stepped on the car and set off with the little doctor.

The mountain is huge, but not too high. Parking the car at the foot of the mountain, Ou Zixi's feet are not easy to walk, so he can only be led by Lu Jingnian to climb up slowly.

It was only when he clasped his hand and began to give it away that Ou Zixi finally understood that he said that he wanted to see the mountains at this time, but he was not interested in drinking.

But that's the only way to go, if you don't let him lead it, it would be too much for him to walk up with a crippled leg alone.

The barren mountain is indeed a barren mountain, there is nothing but wild trees, weeds, stones and mud roads. The two of them walked up the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Lu Jingnian looked around and asked Ou Zixi, "Can you grow your herbs in this kind of mountain?" ?”

"It's not a big problem to move the soil, fertilize and tidy it up," Ou Zixi said, "Half of it is a medicine field, and half is a woodland. The area here is so large that we can grow some perennial herbs."

"When will the cost be recovered?"

This is not within the scope of Ou Zixi's consideration at all. He asked back: "Didn't you contract it for 30 years?"

"..."

"What's the problem?"

"When the mountain land is contracted, I'll find someone to do an assessment to see how to maximize the value."

Therefore, in Lu Jingnian's view, the fastest way to make money is to promote the cosmeceutical packaging developed by Ou Zixi. That is the right way to make money. Of course, the premise is that those things are really easy to use.

But regarding this point, Lu Jingnian still believed in this little doctor, otherwise he wouldn't have tried it in his cousin's shop.

When they reached the top of the highest hill, Ou Zixi couldn't move anymore, so he sat down on the floor. Lu Jingnian smiled, and sat on the ground next to him, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and felt very comfortable.

The place they were in was away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the roads were not repaired, the pollution was less, and even the sky looked bluer. After Xu passed, Lu Jingnian turned to see Ou Zixi who had been staring blankly in front of him, and bumped his arm. Asked: "What do you think?"

Ou Zixi came back to his senses and shook his head: "No."

Then he thought for a while, and then said, "Do we need to hire a lot of people to contract such a large piece of mountain land? And we also need to move the soil to fertilize and buy seeds and seedlings. I'm afraid I don't have enough money."

"It's okay, I asked Oscar to borrow it, and I have it."

"..."

"how?"

"You mean lend it to me?"

Lu Jingnian smiled and said, "Of course it's a partnership with you, and we'll share the dividends if we make money, but the premise is that you have to take out your formula."

Sure enough, he was still thinking about that thing, but forget it, Ou Zixi thought that anyway, he kept it and kept it, since he wanted to give it to him so much.

"You want to rely on this to make a comeback?"

"You have to try," Lu Jing smiled young, "If I can really make money, then I can have the money to fight him."

"Do you have to grab it back?"

"That's supposed to be mine, why not?"

Ou Zixi pursed his lips lightly, and didn't say any more. He didn't quite agree with Lu Jingnian's attitude towards things, but he wouldn't interfere.

The two were talking, when Lu Jingnian's cell phone rang. It was a text message from an unfamiliar number, asking if Ou Zixi's foot injury was healed. If you have any problems, you can call him, and he will take care of it to the end. .

Lu Jingnian narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw it, and Ou Zixi also leaned over to look at it, and said doubtfully, "This guy is quite interesting, usually when he bumps into someone, he just wants others not to hold him accountable, but he's still thinking about it."

After a while of silence, Lu Jingnian suddenly asked, "So you think he is a good person?"

Ou Zixi curled his lips: "I don't know, but his girlfriend has a bad attitude."

Lu Jingnian sneered, what kind of virtue is his cheap brother? Others don't know how he might not know, and he suddenly became concerned about a car accident victim he hit on the street. Just people.

Lu Jingcheng originally took his father's surname, but later changed his name to the Lu family for the sake of integrity. Lu Jingnian didn't like him, but the other party was just like him, a playboy and a double. Lu Jingnian had met him before. There are quite a few men and women around, and the little doctor's appearance is the one that suits him the most, so it's not surprising that he would feel bored.

So without much reason, Lu Jingnian directly deleted the text message and added the number to the blacklist. Ou Zixi asked him suspiciously, "What are you doing?"

Lu Jingnian put the phone in his pocket, and said with a blank expression, "He's tricky, don't talk to him."

Ou Zixi was baffled. In his opinion, the perpetrator cared about him as the victim, which meant he was responsible. He just deleted the text message and blocked the number. Lu Jingnian's reaction was a little too big, right?

Of course, he didn't know that the culprit was the brother who Lu Jingnian said was mortal.

However, Lu Jingnian had already changed the subject: "Your father and grandma are buried on the mountain over there?"

Ou Zixi looked in the direction of his finger and nodded, "It's not far from here."

"Then let's go have a look."

The graves of Ou Zixi's father and grandmother were next to each other, and Ou Zixi stood silently in front of the grave, not knowing what he was thinking.

Looking at the photo on the tombstone, Lu Jingnian saw that Ou Zixi's facial features resembled his grandma's and father's. He sighed lightly, and said, "Grandma, uncle, let me take care of Zixi for you from now on."

Hearing this, Ou Zixi turned to look at him in astonishment, as if he hadn't expected him to say such a thing at all.

Lu Jingnian also turned around and smiled at him: "I'm serious." These words were aimed at him.

At that moment, Ou Zixi couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, so he just stared at him blankly, but the resistance and disgust caused by his various ambiguous and out-of-the-way behaviors during this period of time seemed to disappear at once, and he felt inexplicable. There was a feeling of relief.

The smile in Lu Jingnian's eyes became even brighter, and he added: "I will do what I say."

Ou Zixi finally came back to his senses, turned his eyes away in embarrassment, and muttered softly, "What are you talking about?"

The corners of Lu Jingnian's mouth turned up, and he didn't say any more. For a little doctor like this, he could only slowly pry open his protective shell step by step. He was not in a hurry, and just waited for the day when he would open his heart.

☆, accepted an apprentice

Two days later, Lu Jingnian received a call from his cousin, telling him that he had consulted someone and that it would be no problem to take those materials to the town government for contracting procedures, but the records of the village congress were forged. There was no meeting to discuss it at all, and the villagers didn't know that they were going to contract the collective mountain land, and the signatures were all cheated. It's okay if no one makes trouble.

Sure enough, opportunism will not work, and there are so many unscrupulous people in this village. If the time comes to see the mountain land they contracted make money, it will be strange if they are not jealous and looking for trouble.

In order to avoid future worries, it is better to explain this matter clearly to these villagers in advance.

Mao Douer came to the door, Ou Zixi beckoned him to come in, and gave him the boiled medicine: "The packets on the left are for your mother, and the ones on the right are for your grandpa."

Then I asked him, "Are they better?"

Mao Douer nodded: "It's much better."

Ou Zixi rubbed his head, it was hard for this child, he was only six or seven years old, and he had to take care of two wounded patients.

Mao Douer picked up a basket, handed it to Ou Zixi, and said a little shyly: "Here are two freshly fished fish and some fresh vegetables, which were also freshly picked from the field. Grandpa told me to bring them to you."

Ou Zixi was a little surprised when he heard it, but still accepted it: "Thanks."

After Mao Douer left, Lu Jingnian came over to look at the dishes he brought. The two fish were still smeared with water, big and fat, they were indeed fresh enough: "It can't be poisoned..."

"What are you talking about?" Ou Zixi said, "Third Uncle used to ask Mao Douer to deliver food to me."

"Oh?" Lu Jingnian dragged out his voice, "Is he that good?"

"He's not a bad guy."

"Then you go and tell him that you want to contract the mountain land?"

Ou Zixi thought for a while, then nodded: "Let's go in two days."

In the afternoon, Ou Zixi opened the courtyard door and insisted on dragging his injured leg to the medicine field that he hadn't been to for several days, but he saw that at the door of Wang Po's house next door, Aunt Wang was sitting on the stone at the door wiping her tears, and Lu Jingnian came out with her , pulling Ou Zixi to say don't meddle in other people's business, but Ou Zixi walked over and asked about her.

Wiping her tears, Wang Xiaogu said that her daughter, Xiaohua, had a high fever and was in a coma, and her mother and brother didn't care about her life or death.

Ou Zixi frowned upon hearing this: "Go and bring the child here, I'll take a look at it for you."

"Hey!" Lu Jingnian hurriedly tugged on his sleeve, reminding him: "Are you going to mess with this kind of thing again? Don't you forget that last time their tiger's head died and they bit back at you for killing you?"

Ou Zixi said: "Then you can't just leave him alone."

Aunt Wang hesitated with red eyes: "My mother won't let me find you. As soon as I said I would bring Xiao Hua to see a doctor at your place, she would yell at me, I..."

"You decide for yourself. If you really have a high fever and are unconscious, you need to be treated quickly, or you may not be able to recover."

After Ou Zixi finished speaking, he turned and left. After walking two steps, Aunt Wang caught up with him, grabbed his hand, and begged him: "Please save my daughter, please save Xiaohua!"

"You carry her here."

So they went back into the house, Lu Jingnian reluctantly followed, and Aunt Wang came soon after holding Xiao Hua.

The little girl was hot all over, her face was extremely red, and her eyes were tightly closed. Ou Zixi put her on the bed and began to give her needles, busy with work with a stern expression.

Aunt Wang was squatting on the side wiping her tears. Lu Jingnian looked a little impatient and asked her, "Even if your mother won't let you send the child to Zixi, you wouldn't take her to the hospital in the town? It's all dragging on like this." What's the use of crying here?"

"I also want to go to the hospital, but I have no money, and my mother won't give it either." Aunt Wang said aggrievedly.

"No money? Didn't Zixi give you 5000 yuan before?" In the end, the tiger's head was buried without even a funeral. When a child died at a young age, he was just wrapped in a straw mat and transported up the mountain to find a place to be buried. No money was needed at all. Money, so you don't have no money to see a minor illness for your granddaughter, right?

"My mother said that it was money for my brother to marry another wife, and she refused to give it to me..."

Lu Jingnian was speechless. He had heard Ou Zixi say about this top-notch Wang Po's family. The Wang Po's husband died early, and there was only one son and one daughter. My mother ran away not long after I was born. My daughter married to the next village three years ago. When I was pregnant, my husband who was working on a construction site in the city fell to his death, so I returned to my mother’s house. Later, my daughter’s mother-in-law’s family didn’t care. Now If the tiger head is dead, in Wang Po's eyes, it means that the incense is broken, so it's no wonder that they will come to the door to make trouble and play tricks.

Xiao Hua finally recovered from the injection, and Ou Zixi went to boil the medicine to feed her again, he was also relieved, and said to Xiaogu Wang: "I'll prescribe some more medicine for you, you take it back and give it to her."

Aunt Wang thanked her repeatedly, and then went back with Xiao Hua in her arms.

Lu Jingnian said: "Little doctor, are you being too kind?"

Ou Zixi asked him back: "Could it be that you don't want to save Xiao Hua even if she dies like this?"

"..." Lu Jingnian had nothing to say.

In the evening, there was a sound of beating and cursing from the next door, and Ou Zixi and Ou Zixi didn't bother to bother. It wasn't until the next day that they heard that Aunt Wang was beaten by Wang Po last night. Of course, they wouldn't bother to meddle in other people's business anymore, and after a few days, Xiao Hua's illness gradually improved, which was considered lucky.

In the past few days, Mao Douer would still come to Ou Zixi's place every day to get medicine and deliver food to them. Ou Zixi took the things and said to him, "I'll go back with you and talk to your grandfather."

Lu Jingnian asked him if he wanted to go by himself, Ou Zixi shook his head: "I'll go and talk to him alone."

Although Lu Jingnian was not at ease, he could only let it go.

The third uncle's attitude towards Ou Zixi has softened a lot, but just to save face, when Ou Zixi came to the door, he still looked lukewarm, as long as he didn't issue an order to evict him.

Ou Zixi did not beat around the bush, and directly explained to him the purpose of coming here, saying that he was contracting the mountain, and then said: "I have already discussed this matter with the village chief, and he agreed, but because most of the villagers must agree to the contract to take effect, So I hope the third uncle can help me with this."

The third uncle frowned when he heard this: "That's the mountain reserved for the villagers to use as graves..."

"I know, but that mountain has been abandoned for decades," Ou Zixi said, "The one on the left is still mostly useless, and it may take decades until the grave is moved to the mountain on the right. I."

"Are you going to use it to grow medicine?"

"Well, I want to grow some good medicinal materials. Most of the traditional Chinese medicines on the market are imported from other provinces. The prices are ridiculously expensive, and many of them are adulterated. I can grow good medicinal materials and they won't sell too much. It is expensive, so I want to try it, and many people in the village have already mentioned to me that they want to use part of their own fields to grow medicinal herbs with me, and I can also teach them that good medicinal materials are better than grain, It’s a good thing that everyone can make money.”

"Do you really think so?"

"Yes, a lot of things have happened in the village recently. I know it's difficult for you, third uncle, and I don't want to make too much trouble with everyone, but I hope third uncle can understand my difficulties." Ou Zixi said thinking After thinking about it, he continued: "Besides, that piece of land is collective land in the village. I will pay the rent in one go. There are eleven households in the village. Everyone will share the money, and each household can also share 1 More than [-] yuan, although it is not a lot, it is still an income."

The crutch in the third uncle's hand tapped on the ground, thought for a moment, sighed softly, and his eyes slowly turned red: "My children are not up to date, and there is no one that makes me worry. The only thing I think about now is It’s just that Maodou’er can do well, if you promise me that Maodou’er will study medicine with you, I will help you convince everyone in the village to contract the land to you.”

Ou Zixi didn't expect him to make such a request, and was a little surprised for a while, but Mao Douer is indeed a smart boy, and it's not impossible to teach him, so he nodded: "OK."

"Tomorrow, I will call everyone in the village to talk about this matter. I will greet most of them in advance. You can go back and think about how to explain the matter clearly to everyone. This matter should not be a big problem."

"Then thank you third uncle." Ou Zixi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Regarding Ou Zixi's decision, after he went back, Lu Jingnian was a little dissatisfied after hearing what he said: "Are you really going to teach Mao Douer?"

"That kid is very talented. He can clearly remember the names of the medicinal materials I told him before. It doesn't hurt to teach him."

"Little doctor, shouldn't this kind of unique knowledge be passed on only to one's own family and passed on to males but not females?"

Ou Zixi saw that he was smiling and not serious, so he said angrily, "Which era do you live in?"

Lu Jingnian was the first one who could make Ou Zixi say that.

"what?"

"Chinese medicine is not a unique skill. There are many people who know it, right? Besides, there are no ancient rules that are only passed down to my family, and it is not the kind of martial arts cheats shown on TV. He is willing to learn, so I will There is nothing wrong with accepting an apprentice."

"Then you can teach me."

"You?" Ou Zixi looked him up and down, then shook his head: "You can't."

"Why can't I?"

"Too old." No child is easy to teach.

Lu Jingnian's face was broken: "You despise me as an old man?"

Ou Zixi was puzzled: "Don't you always be?"

"..."

☆, 30. Sign the contract

The next morning, when Ou Zixi got up, he heard someone crying outside. He opened the courtyard door in surprise, and saw Wang Po and Wang Daming. The clouds and fog were quite similar to the situation when the tiger head died and they came to make trouble that day.

Wang Po was swearing, and Ou Zixi only understood after listening for a long time. What she was talking about was that Aunt Wang ran away from home suddenly with Xiao Hua, and took away the 5000 yuan that was supposed to be given to Wang Daming to marry another wife and have a grandson. Then she seemed to be accusing Ou Zixi of instigating her to do what she said.

Ou Zixi was speechless, it was the first time he had learned what Lu Jingnian meant when he said shameless and shameless.

So he ignored them, let them continue to wail, and only closed the door forcefully.

Turning around, she saw that Lu Jingnian had also gotten up, and was standing under the tree behind, smiling at him with folded arms, obviously hearing the shouting and scolding outside.

"Little doctor, are you still insisting that it was right to save Xiaohua that day?"

Ou Zixi knew what he meant, but he didn't agree with him: "If you don't save her, she will die. Wang Po is not good, but you don't need to take Xiao Hua's life, right?"

Lu Jingnian had nothing to say.

Two hours later, the people outside who had cried enough saw that they hadn't moved at all and were bored, so they finally went back to their own home. Mao Douer came to the door and said happily: "Doctor Ou, Grandpa said you would accept me as a slave." Disciple, teach me medical skills, right?"

Ou Zixi smiled and rubbed his head: "Then you have to study hard."

"I will definitely!" Mao Douer responded loudly, nodded vigorously, and then said: "Grandpa just said to let you go there at noon, and he has already called the whole village together."

"Okay, we'll go in a while."

Lu Jingnian was thinking to himself whether he should call the workers who guarded the medicine field for them and bring some sharp knives to defend himself, so that if the unruly people got excited when they heard that their cemetery was going to be moved, it would be good to scare people, wouldn't it?So as soon as he said his thoughts, Ou Zixi gave him a blank look: "You think too much."

Mao Douer on the side also said: "Grandpa
