People in the village get up very early and usually go out to sea before dawn, but on the day before going to the town, the sky is already twilight, but the fishing boats are still docked quietly on the shore, only a few people are on board waiting.

Some taller and stronger men gathered together, confirming the number of people traveling tomorrow.

Because of the long distance and the fact that there are too few horses in the village, not everyone who has reported their names can go with them. If they are too thin, or if they get sick on the way, it will take more time to take care of them. The whole team is dragged down.

The people who traveled this time had already been confirmed, but at dawn, Second Aunt Lin looked for her. She was carrying a vegetable basket and clenched her hands tightly. She seemed a little nervous. The wind in the morning was chilly. Yes, but sweat came out of her forehead.

There are not many people in the village, and they are all familiar with each other, so they can naturally recognize Ersao Lin.

Lin Ersao had also gone to the town with them in the early years, but now that she is old, she gets tired easily when walking, and even riding a horse is very bumpy, so she didn't go with them anymore.

When they saw Second Sister Lin coming, everyone thought she wanted to go to the town with her, but the peasant woman stopped talking for a while, and then said, "Brother Liu, have you confirmed the number of people for this trip?"

Brother Liu was honest and honest, his skin was tanned red, he smiled and said, "I can bring two more people."

Hearing this, Second Aunt Lin's eyes lit up immediately, and she said, "I wonder if I can bring my two girls with me."

As soon as these words came out, not only Brother Liu was stunned, but everyone was stunned for a while. After a while, someone asked awkwardly: "It's not convenient to take girls with you. Sister Lin, you know that we are a group of big and three rough men. , but I don’t know how to take care of people, if I run into bumps on the road, it’s hard to explain to you.”

"The two girls in my family can take care of each other, as long as the eldest brother guides us." Second Aunt Lin said earnestly.

Brother Liu scratched his head. He had to go dozens of times a year, but he never brought a woman with him, so it was inconvenient no matter what.

After a long silence, someone in the crowd said: "Sister-in-law Lin, if you need anything, just tell us, we will bring it to you, isn't it the same way before, why bother the two girls, or let Lin go with us first It's also possible."

The second sister-in-law Lin became anxious immediately, "It's time to let them go. It's no good if you just go home and don't do any work. It's even worse for Mrs. Lin. He's a fool, follow me and disappear. It's very noisy."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, the two big girls who were as beautiful as flowers were afraid of knocking at home, and hearing that one of them was recovering from a serious illness, Second Aunt Lin actually wanted to get someone to work.

"This..." Brother Liu couldn't make up his mind for a while, and Second Aunt Lin's pleas filled his ears.

He thought for a while, isn't it just to bring two more people, why bother to beg like this, they are all from the same village, they can't look up and look down, if they refuse, it will be embarrassing in the future.

Someone said: "Brother Liu, why don't you take it with you, it happens that we don't need to ride a horse, so let the girl ride the horse."

Brother Liu nodded, "That's fine, just take it."

Only then did Second Aunt Lin laugh, and handed over the vegetable basket on her elbow. She lifted off the blue cloth covering it, and saw that inside was a basket full of eggs, each big and white, like It is like round jade, very beautiful.

"This is my own egg. It's delicious. I, a woman, can't give anything back. I can only show you some little things." She laughed.

Brother Liu scratched his head, and he laughed foolishly. He didn't pick it up, and it didn't matter if he didn't pick it up. Finally, under the burning eyes of Mrs. Lin, he accepted it with reluctance.

After getting the consent of this group of people, Second Aunt Lin quickly returned to her yard, and was about to tell the two girls the good news, but unexpectedly, the mattresses were neatly folded, and no one could be found inside or outside the house. , Luo Que and Wei Xinglan had already left the house early.

……

Luo Que was woken up early in the morning by the person beside him. The person lying next to him was really restless, tossing and turning, as if on purpose.

She woke up once in the night, and it was because she was suffocated.

When she opened her eyes, she realized that the quilt piled on her body was so thick that it buried her tightly. She couldn't breathe for a moment, so she sat up and shook the quilt away.

As soon as he sat up, he saw the person next to him curled up slightly, with his hands tucked in front of his chest. It looked like he was extremely cold, but he didn't even cover his body with a corner of the quilt.

She was stunned for a moment, and in her memory, she was not someone who would snatch quilts, but why did the whole quilt fall on her for no reason.

Wei Xinglan closed her eyes tightly, her breathing was a little messy, she seemed to be sleeping unsteadily, she slept for a while, and suddenly stretched out her hand to push away a corner of the quilt beside her.

Luo Que was stunned for a moment, and lowered her voice to call her name, but the person beside her didn't open her eyes.

Not only did he not open his eyes, but he turned to the other side, facing her back covered with a thin layer of underwear.

It was only then that Luo Que realized that the person was really asleep, and she pushed the quilt over. She thought to herself, how could this person do such a stupid thing while asleep? Could it be that she was afraid that she would catch the cold?

After shaking off the quilt and covering the man's slightly curled body, Luo Quin also fell asleep, but not long after sleeping, he felt someone moving around him.

She opened her eyes suddenly, and said, "Wei Xinglan, what are you doing?"

The rustling sound suddenly disappeared, and the person beside him also fell silent.

The man had just woken up, his voice was slightly hoarse, but lazy and slow, as if he was gently grinding sand and stones, so close that he whispered in her ear.

Luo Que froze, listening to Wei Xinglan say: "I didn't move."

"Who are you lying to?" Luo Que frowned.

Wei Xinglan smiled again, the slightly trembling voice that came out of her throat was like beating a drum to her heart, Luo Quin immediately pursed her lips, feeling that when that person smiled, the bed was shaking. trembling.

"I really didn't move. If you think I moved, maybe it's your own heart." Wei Xinglan said with a smile.

Luo Que sat up abruptly, feeling that he couldn't sleep anymore.

But for some reason, when Wei Xinglan said these words, she seemed to have been exposed, her whole body was so pure that there was no cover at all, and she was completely peeped at.

She felt hot all over, her eyes widened slightly, she turned her head and said, "I'm going to look for realgar powder today, the medicine shop should be open."

Wei Xinglan let out a "hmm". She lay on her side on the bed and looked at the person sitting up. She even bent her elbows to support her head, "By the way, ask the doctor if there is any medicine that can cure heart palpitations."

Luo Qin glanced at her: "You are really endless."

The two went out as soon as they said they were going out, and after washing up, they walked out of the yard one after the other, and closed the door gently again.

Sure enough, the pharmacy opened, and the shopkeeper was taking the dustpans outside the house to store. There were some medicinal materials spread out in the dustpans, waiting for the sun to come out to dry them.

He bowed his back and turned his back to the way he came from. Maybe it was because he was old and his hearing was not very good, so he didn't hear the footsteps in a daze.

After placing the dustpan, he slowly straightened up, glanced into the distance inadvertently, and suddenly saw two girls walking slowly in the distance.

One of them was dressed in white and the other in black. Although they looked attractive, they were completely different from the black and white impermanence underground.

The shopkeeper rubbed his eyes, still feeling that he was dreaming, otherwise how could he have seen such beautiful two girls in the village.

After a while, he thought again, it's strange, how come there are people he doesn't recognize in this village.

Seeing the two getting closer, the shopkeeper confirmed that he was not dreaming, and that the two girls belonged to Mrs. Lin's family, otherwise he would never have seen them.

This time, Luo Que and Wei Xinglan didn't bring swords when they went out, for fear of scaring the people in the village.Without a sharp weapon at his side, Luo Quin could only keep a cold face, and his body lost a bit of vigor, and he became even more graceful like a fairy.

The shopkeeper thought blankly, Second Aunt Lin is not like... who can raise such a juicy and beautiful girl.

Wei Xinglan narrowed her eyes slightly, followed the shopkeeper's gaze, and turned her head to see the person beside her. She immediately raised her eyebrows, her face was a little dark, but after seeing that the shopkeeper's eyes did not look affectionately, I relaxed again.

It is enough for one person to come to propose marriage, but don't come for a second one, Second Miss Wei thought.

However, Luo Qun didn't know what she was thinking, and walked up to her and asked, "I wonder if your Excellency is the shopkeeper?"

Shopkeeper Ren nodded repeatedly, rubbed his hands that were stained with the medicine powder, and said with a smile: "The two are girls from Mrs. Lin's family. I've heard about the appearance of the two girls for a long time, but now I see that they really deserve their reputation."

Wei Xinglan nodded immodestly, she was happy to hear others praise her, and said, "That's ridiculous." Even though she said that, she didn't sound sincere at all.

Luo Quin: ...

Shopkeeper Ren turned around and walked in, opened the door a little more, walked to the back of the counter, took out the small scale for weighing medicine, turned around and opened a medicine drawer, grabbed a handful of medicine from it, and put it on the scale Hold on.He asked at the same time: "Is the girl here to get the medicine? I wonder if the medicine Mrs. Lin took back a few days ago will work?"

Luo Que nodded, the effect of the medicine should be somewhat, otherwise Wei Xinglan wouldn't know how long he would have slept.

Shopkeeper Ren smiled, "Young lady, you don't need to drink the medicine from last time when you wake up. If you want to replenish your body, I will prescribe some more."

"No, we're here to get other medicines." Wei Xinglan said.

"What kind of medicine?" Shopkeeper Ren was stunned for a moment, "Do you have a medicine list?"

Wei Xinglan said: "I forgot to bring it, the shopkeeper just take the medicine as I said." She stood in front, trying to divert the shopkeeper's eyes from falling on Luo Quin.

Luo Que felt a little inexplicable, looked at her and said, "Didn't you say you wanted realgar yesterday?"

Wei Xinglan said leisurely, "It suddenly occurred to me that another dose of medicine is more effective."

"You know medicine." Luo Que frowned.

Wei Xinglan smiled, "I'm not... a long-term illness and become a doctor."

She said it easily, but Luo Que felt a little uncomfortable hearing it, and always felt that this person should not suffer from illness, but should be more willful.

Shopkeeper Ren put down the small scale in his hand, wrapped the medicinal materials weighed just now in paper, and said after fastening it tightly: "Okay, if you remember the name of the medicine and the catty, tell me, I will take the medicine as you said, Just don’t forget it wrong, you can’t take this medicine indiscriminately.”

Wei Xinglan nodded, and slowly said the names of the medicines such as wormwood, wild cassia, thyme, and realgar, and also clearly stated the grams.

Even shopkeeper Ren, who had studied medicine for decades, was also shocked. He hurriedly took notes to avoid making a mistake.

Luo Que was stunned when she heard that, she didn't expect that this person really knew medicine, she turned her head and asked, "Did you quietly get up to recite last night?"

"Do I need to recite it?" Wei Xinglan asked.

"Then did you wake up last night?" Luo Quin didn't finish speaking, and cut off the voice as soon as her cheeks became hot, wondering if this person wrapped her in a quilt on purpose.

Wei Xinglan laughed and said, "Why, I fell asleep beside Miss Luo."

"You obviously moved." Luo Qun said.

"How did Miss Luo know that I moved? Did she quietly get up and look at me?" Wei Xinglan said shamelessly, and then added, "I don't know if Miss Luo thinks you look good."

Luo Que was so blocked that he couldn't speak.

The two chattered non-stop, and the shopkeeper had to listen if he didn't listen, thinking, these two don't feel like ordinary sisters.After wrapping up the medicine, he said embarrassingly, "The two girls have a really good relationship."

"That's right." Wei Xinglan said with some complacency, "My sister and I have always treated each other like guests."

Luo Quin: ...

As soon as she avoided that look, her whole body seemed to be on fire in an instant.It's fine for the two of them to talk in private, but she didn't expect Wei Xinglan to say such ugly words in front of outsiders.

"Respecting each other like a guest is not used in this way." She paused every word.

Wei Xinglan nodded half-understanding, "Oh, my younger sister knows a lot."

Luo Quin's eyes were as cold as ice knives.

Shopkeeper Ren was a little puzzled and became more and more confused. Could it be that his mind was ruined by the drugs, or that's how sisterhood should be.
