Chapter 502 Sugar Water
Both Xu Dalang and Wen Qing were inside, and Kingfisher's parents were thanking them excitedly.

The old doctor who was brought in checked Chen Shou's pulse, then smiled and waved his hands, and left.

Sister Kingfisher sent people out and gave the doctor a catty of grain.

The old doctor was not polite, he accepted it, and said: "There is no serious problem, but the body is weak after starving for a long time, and needs to be replenished."

"Thank you, doctor." Sister Kingfisher sent the doctor away with a smile, and looked back at the old hen in the chicken pen, unable to smile anymore.

But for the sake of his father's body, the old hen was caught and slaughtered.

Seeing that they couldn't find any useful information, the villagers all dispersed.

There is still work to be done in the field, and no one has the time to stay in other people's homes to join in the fun.

Not long after, there were only two outsiders, Xu Yue and brother and sister Xu Dalang, left in the yard.

Kingfisher pulled Xu Yue and introduced to his father: "This is Sister Xu, Father, Sister Xu is very kind to me. Thanks to them for helping Auntie go to the fields these days, otherwise our land will be planted too late." gone."

Kingfisher's introduction was very measured, without mentioning the identity of Xu Yue and Xu Jiajun.

"Thank you, girl."

Chen Shou propped himself up from the kang and sat up. The light in the room was dim, and he opened his eyes with difficulty to see clearly what Sister Xu looked like in his daughter's mouth.

Seeing that familiar face, Father Kingfisher gasped for breath. Although he tried his best to conceal it, the flash of surprise in those sunken eyes still couldn't escape the eyes of Xu Yue and his sister.

The two looked at each other, their expressions normal, as if they hadn't noticed anything.

Xu Yue handed a small bag of sugar to Mrs. Kingfisher, "Auntie, take this sugar and make some sugar water for Uncle, so that he can nourish his body."

"White, white sugar?" Kingfisher's heart trembled, and she opened the small paper bag the size of a palm in her hand. The snow-white frosting appeared in front of her eyes. Xu Yue pushed back.

"It's too expensive. How dare you save the child's father. How dare I ask for such a precious thing. Miss Xu, please take it back!"

The kingfisher girl really didn't dare to ask for it. It was the first time in her life that she had seen sugar so white and fine. Thinking about it, she knew how precious it was.

"You are good people. My kingfisher clings to you every day, causing trouble for you. My eldest brother killed a chicken. Miss Xu, if you don't mind, stay and drink a bowl of chicken soup." The kingfisher lady sincerely invited.

Chen Shou on the kang stared at Bai Tang who was pushed back, and his breathing became heavier again.

Hearing his wife's invitation, he also said: "Yes, stay for a bowl of soup. Thank you very much for today. My family is poor and I don't have any good things. Please don't dislike my two benefactors."

Xu Yue shook her head, and gave the paper bag to Kingfisher, who was staring blankly, "I still have something to do, let's go first."

After all, without giving the couple a chance to stay, they turned around and left.

Before leaving the door, Xu Dalang suddenly turned his head and glanced at Chen Shou. The cold eyes made the man shiver, and he hurriedly lowered his head as if guilty, as if he didn't see it.

Kingfisher didn't notice Dad's strange reaction, and curled the corner of her mouth holding the white sugar. She will work hard for Xu Jiajun in the future and repay sister Xu!

"Mom, but I made sugar water for dad. With such good sugar water, dad will definitely recover soon." Kingfisher smiled and reported to his mother, and went to the kitchen with the paper bag in his arms like a baby.

The elder sister and elder brother are both in the kitchen, and they have heard the movement from the main room. Seeing the kingfisher bring the paper bag over, they urge her to open the paper bag, so that they can see what kind of white sugar Master Lei's family is reluctant to eat. look.

Kingfisher waved his hand to signal his sister and brother not to squeeze, put the paper bag on the stove, and then carefully opened the paper bag.

The snow-white frosting appeared in front of the three sisters, and there was a sweet smell in the air, which made the three sisters swallow their mouths in unison.

Kingfisher saw how greedy her sister and brother were, and hurriedly picked up the paper bag, "Sister Xu gave it to daddy, give it to daddy to drink first, and when daddy is ready, if there is any leftover, let's cook it again Tang Shui asked A Niang to go with me, okay?"

The older sister and brother patted the younger sister's head, resisting the overflow of saliva in their mouths, and stopped looking at the tempting candy wrapper.

It was getting late, and the cloudy sky was getting dark quickly. As soon as the lights were lit in the tent, the sky was completely dark.

In the dim night, an ox cart appeared at the entrance of the village, and drove the ox cart towards the official road carefully without making a sound.

The wheel of the wheel accidentally pressed against a stone, and when there was a slight movement, the rickety and thin figure in the car was startled.

He panicked and looked towards the tent by the small river outside the village, and saw that the lights were still there, and the tent reflected the shadows of people gathering together for dinner.

Only then did he heave a sigh of relief, took a sip of the sugar water from the bamboo tube at his waist, raised his whip, and slapped the cow's buttocks, before sneaking towards the road.

It was dark and moonless, and there were only shadows of trees on the road ahead, and I looked down on the road at all.

However, this person seemed to be very familiar with this road. When the bullock cart was running, he basically didn't go wrong.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, the bullock cart finally came to the intersection of the small road and the main road.

The driver couldn't help showing a greedy smile, and he drove the ox cart, preparing to take the road to the county town to get the huge bounty.

For the first time in his life, a man felt that money could come so easily.

Victory is just ahead, the impatient man is already smiling, and his mind is full of fantasies about moving to the city with his family tomorrow, wearing gold and silver, living a good life like a gentleman, and never having to be bullied again. Go to the mine to suffer.

However, when he picked up the bamboo tube on his waist and drank the sweet sugar water without a trace of bitterness and without a grain of sand, the greed in the man's eyes faded away, and he felt more guilty and ashamed.

Before his eyes suddenly appeared the cold eyes of the tall young man who looked back before he went out in the afternoon.

The man shuddered and shook his head, trying to shake off the illusion.

But I didn't want to, when I opened my eyes again, those cold eyes didn't disappear, but they got closer to me!
"Ho!"

The man gasped in fright, realized something in an instant, pulled the reins hastily, felt guilty and ashamed, and rushed towards the mountain forest in a panic.

"Want to run?" Xu Dalang walked out of the darkness, his eyes flashed red, and terrifying mental power poured out, instantly covering the bullock cart.

I only heard the old cow scream in pain, as if bound by a pair of invisible big hands, and violently shook it.

Chen Shou in the car was thrown and fell to the ground screaming.

The torch was lit, and a tall woman appeared in front of him. Chen Shou raised his head in horror, and bumped into a pair of indifferent eyes that were flickering with fire.

"If Kingfisher knows that there is a father like you, she must be very sad." Xu Yue sighed softly.

Her tone sounded very gentle, but she stepped hard on the man's thin back!
