The splendid countryside of the princess

Chapter 173

It's just that what Ouyang Qing said about her life experience, once he left, Tang Dai was completely forgotten. No matter what her identity is in this era, she will not be her biological parents anyway. It can only be said whether they are the real parents of the original owner.Therefore, if it comes, it will be safe, and the current family treats her well, so she doesn't bother to make trouble.

The weather is getting colder every day, and in a blink of an eye everyone is wearing thick clothes again, and another year of winter is here.

Tang Dai, who learns medical skills from immortal monks at home every day, has not forgotten her first teacher, Li Langzhong. Li Langzhong is good at wine and meat. Make some for him to eat, and give him some good wine, but it’s just a ration, don’t eat too much, drink more.And let the junior sister Li Jing watch closely.

Junior sister Li Jing is already nine years old, and when she turns nine at the end of the year, she will be a ten-year-old girl. Her figure has already begun to stretch, and the baby fat on her face has also disappeared.The round little face turned into a fair oval face, a pair of big bright eyes, long eyelashes, a little beauty embryo.

Followed my father all day to learn medical skills, collect herbs, dry them, cut them, memorize medicine, recite prescriptions... never complain.Lao Huai was very relieved to make Li Langzhong feel that he had another successor.But Li Langzhong felt that his illness was getting worse and worse, and he would get dizzy if he didn't stop taking the medicine, so he asked Li Jing to call Tang Dai that day.

"Master, what do you want me to do?" Tang Dai came to Li Langzhong's house and asked Li Langzhong who was writing a prescription with his head down.

"The little girl is here! It's nothing serious, but I'm not in good health anymore, let you help me take a look. I haven't stopped taking medicine these days, but I don't know why I suddenly feel dizzy, but it's not regular , is intermittent. The medicine seems to be useless."

"Then I'll take your pulse."

Li Langzhong put his hands on the medicine case. After Tang Dai gave the master two hands, her blood pressure did not rise, so there was no major problem. Did the master eat and drink again?
"Master, have you been eating too much meat and drinking recently? Jing'er, come to Senior Sister, Senior Sister is going to ask you."

"No, little girl, master is not lying to you. I really didn't cheat on eating and drinking more. This feeling only happened in the past few days."

"Sister Dai Dai, I'm here! Daddy didn't eat or drink too much. He didn't lie. I'll testify for Daddy, definitely not."

"Okay, Senior Sister believes in you!"

"Master, then you should stay at home and rest in bed more, so you can't be careless. What are you writing?"

"Writing medical prescriptions, I have recorded all the illnesses I have encountered, the medicines I have used, and the special situations I have encountered since I practiced medicine, and I have also sorted out the prescriptions I used. I have been sorting out for more than half a year. , I almost finished it today, and I will go to rest after tidying up."

"Okay, then you continue to tidy up your things, and pay attention to rest when you're done, I'm going back. Jing'er, are you going to my house? Senior Sister will cook something delicious for you!"

"Okay, okay! Sister, I'll go with you. Daddy, you copy the prescription at home, and I'll go play it."

"Go. Listen to what the senior sister says."

on the way home.

"Sister Dai Dai, when will third brother Muxiu come home? He was away all year last year, and only stayed at home for a few days during the Chinese New Year. Muxiu hasn't come back for half a year this year. What is he doing all day long? Don't go home." Li Jing pouted her pink mouth while talking.

"En? What's the matter? Third brother won't come back, Jing'er misses third brother?"

"Yes, yes! He used to bring two dogs to play with me when he came back, but when he went outside to study, he ignored me more and more. Sister Dai Dai, is it Jinger? Not good? The third brother just ignored me."

"Heh...how could it be? It's because the third brother has more things to do when he is older, so he can no longer only play and think about nothing like when he was a child. Just like Jing'er, don't you follow Daddy is working hard to study medicine, so does he spend less time playing than before?"

"Oh, that's it, sister Dai Dai, it's not that the third brother doesn't like me anymore, is he busy?!"

"That's right. When the Chinese New Year comes this year, the third brother will come back, and Jing'er will be able to see him again."

"When will the third brother come back? When is the New Year?"

"In one month, your third brother will have a year-end bath, and he will be back then. Chinese New Year, it will take two months."

Tang Dai held Little Lolita's hand and answered her ten whys along the way.Somewhat surprised, Li Jing actually cared about the third brother Tang Jue, and hoped that he would go home to play with her. She had never heard her express it before. Could it be that the girl grew up and thought more?

Because Daddy's grave is going to be relocated this year, the eldest brother and the third brother must come back in time, otherwise, she really can't tell Jinger that Tang Jue Muxiu will come back, afraid that Tang Jue will not come back by then, and let little loli disappointment.

"Sister Daidai, it's snowing, it's snowing, look out for the big snowflakes..."

Tang Dai looked up, and sure enough, big snowflakes had already started to float in the sky. This winter was colder than previous years. It was only a few days since the beginning of the winter moon, and this was already the second snowfall.

And the first snowfall is not small, judging by the density of snowflakes today, it is estimated that there will be another heavy snowfall.I don't know what's the weather like in the capital?Is it cold?Is it snowing?
The eldest brother hasn't heard from me these days, and I don't know how he did in this year's Qiuwei exam?Is there a list?He also said that it was because of the cold weather and the snow made the letter late.

"Sister Dai Dai, if the snow is thick, can you build a snowman with me? The snowman you made is so cute and beautiful. The Snow White you built for me last time, all the children in the village envy me !"

"Why do you envy you?" Tang Dai asked Li Jing with a smile.

"Because the snowman you made is so beautiful! Moreover, because you are my senior sister, you will make it for me and not for others, so the children in the village envy me for having a capable senior sister who can make snowmen!" Li Jingyang Said with a terrified face.

"Hehe... Really? Then Jing'er has also learned to pile up beautifully, so those children are not envious of you having a good senior sister, but admiring your ability!"

"Really? If I do, others will... Sister Dai Dai, I understand!" Li Jing looked at Tang Dai with wide eyes half understanding, trying hard to understand the meaning of Tang Dai's words.

After thinking about it, she said that she understood it herself, but she didn't know whether she really understood it or pretended to understand it.

Tang Dai hoped that she really understood!Because, only if you know anything, you will not be restrained by others.I would rather let others envy you and envy you than your so-and-so is very powerful!

As the snow fell harder and harder, Tang Dai took Li Jing by the hand and quickened her pace.

After master Li Langzhong called her this time, about half a month later, the master asked Li Jing to call her over again. Li Langzhong gave Tang Dai the records he made and the prescriptions he had made. She said that she would use it if she needed it, and if she didn't need it, let her keep it safe for Li Jing, and she would have to improve Li Jing's medical skills in the future.

He told her again what Li Jing had entrusted to her, and Tang Dai agreed one by one, and Li Langzhong happily let Tang Dai go home.After Tang Dai came back, she put away the master's notes and prescriptions. Since the master entrusted her, wait until Jing'er is older before handing them over to her.

In Dongyue, the weather is getting colder every day. Tang Dai nests in her warm home and doesn’t want to go out, but she is forced to do nothing by her master Xianseng. She has to practice kung fu every day. Tang Dai, who had always liked Wo Dong, wanted to pull his white beard, but she didn't dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head. She was aggrieved, shivering in the morning, and had to get up to practice.

On Dongyue 23, just after the third heavy snowfall in Tangjia Village, the weather was so cold that dripping water turned to ice. Students studying abroad, colleges and schools were afraid of safety problems due to the cold weather, so they all took a bath in advance.

Tang Yushun had already returned home from Xue County.But Tang Jue also came home, and the school's Mu vacation was a few days earlier than that of the county school.

Seeing Tang Jue taking He Ren with him, Li Shi came back when Chu Shi came.He was so happy that he immediately cooked a table of delicious food for the three of them. Unlike last year, when Tang Jue just got home, she lost his temper and beat him up.After Tang Jue finished his meal, he hoped that Tang Feng would also come home early.

"Third brother, look, it's better to get home early? You don't need to be beaten, and there are good dishes for you." Tang Dai watched Tang Feng finish his meal, thinking about what happened last year, and teased him.

"Cough...cough...girl, it's been a year, can you stop talking about it? It hurt my third brother's self-esteem too much, you know? Your third brother and I are 15 years old, and I was still beaten. How can I say it. Tang Jue glanced at his mother who was also smiling, and said embarrassingly.

Mrs. Li ignored him, collected the bowls and chopsticks and went to the kitchen, leaving the brother and sister to talk nonsense there.

"Yeah, third brother is old now, can he find a girl from a good family to kiss him?"

"Tang Xiaoniu, why do you always fight against me? I don't want to be an official now, and I don't want to get married. I don't think about it, but you just mention it, right? You will be thirteen soon, and you can also get engaged Yes. Hmph!"

"Third brother, are you back? I thought I was confused, so I ran to see, it really is you who are back!" Suddenly a voice sounded, and Tang Jue saw that it was Li Jing who had come.

"En, Jing'er, I'm back! Because of the cold weather, the Academy Mu's vacation was early, so I came back early. It's so cold today, why are you outside, and you said you watched me come back?"

"I'm waiting for the third brother! Sister Dai Dai said, you will be back in a month, and it will be a month soon. I will visit the village when I have nothing to do!" Li Jing looked at her third brother with wide eyes.

The third brother is much taller than before, and he looks much better!
"Wait for me? Wait—why wait for me?" Tang Jue looked at Li Jing's big bright eyes, and suddenly felt unnatural and stuttered.

"Jing'er said that the third brother often took two fur balls to play with her when he was a child, but now the third brother knows how to play outside and ignores her!" Tang Dai explained.

"Oh, that's it!... I was shocked, I thought it was something else. Jing'er, now the third brother is big, and the two hairballs are also big, and you will grow up too. Let's play together like before!" After hearing the explanation, Tang Jue turned to Jing'er and said.

"Third Brother...why can't you play together? I'm going to be with Third Brother, Third Brother, don't you like Jing'er? You haven't played with me since last year. Jing'er is not happy. "

"Jing...Jing'er, why doesn't third brother like you? You are so cute and beautiful. You see, elder brother, second sister, and your senior sister all like you! So, third brother will definitely not dislike you your."

"Third brother, what you said is true? Third brother, that's great, then I will come to play with you every day from now on!" Li Jing clapped her little hands happily, cheered, and ran to Tang Jue like she did when she was a child. hugged him.

"..." Tang Jue let her hug him speechlessly, and then patted his head embarrassingly. She was only a child, how could he play with her?No common language at all, okay?He would rather talk to brother Jingou.

On the other hand, Tang Dai looked at the third brother's speechless expression towards Li Jing, pursed her lips, and smiled maliciously!Maybe the third brother's nemesis is here.

In the next few days, Li Jing really came to play with Tang Jue every day, like a little follower, wherever Tang Jue was, she followed, Tang Jue read, she also read, Tang Jue ate, she also ate.Tang refused to let her follow, so she immediately stared at Tang Jue with big eyes filled with tears. Tang Jue couldn't help it, afraid that she would cry, so he had to raise his hands in surrender in the end. If she wanted to follow, let her follow.

Seeing that Li Shi was very surprised, Li Jing didn't come to the house rarely before, but now she was running every day, so she asked Tang Dai what was going on, and Tang Dai told her not to worry about it.Said that Junior Sister Jing'er is helping Third Brother to calm down!

Tang Dai was still laughing after she finished speaking, so Li Shi was baffled by her laughter, and she glanced at the little girl, she really didn't care, just any two people, one walked in front and the other followed behind!Not too annoying.

Just when Tang Dai joyfully thought that she could keep watching the two of them, playing a game of chasing after each other, a major event happened to interrupt this wonderful feeling.

On Dongyue 28, Tang Dai was still practicing kung fu with her master as usual in the morning, and Tang Jue was also practicing kung fu with Chu Shi.Just as they finished their practice and came out of the shower to have breakfast, they heard someone in the village yelling, the sound of running footsteps, and the sound of a woman crying.

Tang Dai and the others walked out of the courtyard immediately, and listened carefully. The crying sound came from the home of her master Li Langzhong. Tang Dai felt a bad feeling in her heart, and immediately followed Tang Jue to Li Langzhong. ran in the direction of home.

Before the two of them entered the house, they heard the cries of the teacher's wife Yao and the junior sister Li Jing clearly from the courtyard. Tang Dai and Tang Jue's expressions changed at the same time. The two did not speak, but looked at each other. They both saw the answer in the other person's eyes that they didn't want to guess.The two quickly lifted their feet into the yard.

There are already several uncles from the village in the yard. The uncle has arrived and is preparing to set up the mourning hall.Tang Dai's heart sank, she walked into the room, Tang Jue followed behind her sister.

As soon as he entered his eyes, he saw the master Li Langzhong put on a door panel, and his eyes were already closed.The nose, the corners of the mouth, the fundus of the eyes... There are bloodstains that haven't been wiped off. Master Yao's wife and younger sister Li Jing are lying on the master's body from left to right, crying bitterly!

"Master, Jing'er..." Tang Dai's eyes were red, and she called out to the two of them.

Tang Jue also frowned, pursed his lips tightly, and his eyes fell on Li Jing who had been pestering him to play with her unreasonably for the past few days. Seeing her crying, her eyes were red and swollen, her face was full of tears, and her heart seemed to be pulled Once, it hurts!

"Little girl... woo, woo... your master is gone! He is still so young, why is he so dead? He left us so early to enjoy his own happiness! Why is he so cruel? Why is he willing to let go of his silence? Son? Ah, ah, ah...my heart hurts! My heart hurts so much..." Seeing Tang Dai coming, Mrs. Yao lost control of her emotions and cried hoarsely, beating her chest with both hands.

"Sister Dai Dai, third brother... woo, woo... I want Daddy, I want Daddy! Daddy doesn't want us anymore..." Seeing Senior Sister and Third Brother coming, Li Jing staggered over to hold Tang Dai and cried loudly.

"Master, please mourn...Third brother, take good care of Jing'er."

Tang Dai looked at Yao Shi beating her chest and stamping her feet, fearing that she would hurt herself, she handed Li Jing, who was holding her and crying, to Tang Jue's care, and went to help Yao Shi beat her hand. She had never encountered such a thing before. , stupid tongue, don't know how to persuade my wife.

"Master, Master is gone, you can't ignore your own body, Jing'er is still waiting for you to take care of her! Come on, wipe off your tears. Mistress, what's going on, Master? I checked the pulse for Master two days ago. Why? Yes, will people disappear all of a sudden?"

"I don't know what's going on with him! He hasn't stopped taking medicine recently, and he doesn't talk too much, but he still keeps complaining that he doesn't feel well. I don't know if he has a premonition that his end is approaching or something? In the past half a month He kept saying strange things, sorted out his things, and told me which things he kept and who to give them to? I thought he was wordy at the time. Early this morning, as usual, he got up and said he was going to go to the mountains to collect Some medicinal herbs, lest there will be heavy snowfall in the twelfth lunar month, and the mountain will be closed, and the lack of commonly used medicinal materials will be bad. I started a little later than him, and when I got up, I washed the pots and bowls as usual and prepared to cook breakfast. But the firewood under the stove No more, I went out of the gate to grab some firewood, but I didn't expect to see your master lying not far outside the courtyard. I was so scared that I went up to look and wanted to help him up, but he didn't know the reason anymore I'm sick, I put him on the bed with great difficulty, but his body is already cold... Woo, woo... This cruel person!"

After Master Yao finished telling the story, she burst into tears again.Tang Dai got up and went to Li Langzhong to observe carefully, and combined with what her teacher Yao said, she had a bottom line.

"Master, master's illness is caused by his hyperactivity of yang. It's an acute attack, called cerebral hemorrhage. Master, he got sick at the wrong time. Alas...it's early in the morning and there's no one outside. As soon as he got sick, he fell down on the ground. On the ground, no one found out in time, and it was cold. So... Madam, please mourn, this life, old age, sickness and death are beyond the control of the master. How could he be willing to leave so early? Jing'er has not married and had children. You don't want to either. Mistress, you still have to comfort and comfort Master, so that he can walk with peace of mind along the way!"

"Woo, woo... Girl, I understand everything you said, but I just can't stop my heartache! I think when he was young, I fell in love with him at first sight, and finally pleaded with the master's family to let the master The family let me out, and I have been following him without hesitation. I just wanted to be with him forever, but before my hair turned gray, he went first. How could I not be willing? How can I not feel heartbroken? It's the tears that have dried up , I can’t resist my heartache. If it wasn’t for You Jing’er, I wish I could go with your master right now, and avoid this heartache and the pain and worry of the rest of my life!”

"Master, you must not think like this. After Jing'er's death, you still need to support me. With your support, Master can close his eyes and walk with peace of mind!"

"Mother..." Li Jing heard her mother say this in Tang Jue's arms, and she came out of Tang Jue's arms crying and plunged into Li Shi's arms. The mother and daughter hugged their heads in pain.

Seeing Tang Dai shed tears, Tang Jue's eyes also turned red.The others also wiped their tears. After talking for a while, everyone in the village came, and Mrs. Li also followed, but saw the little girl talking to Mrs. Yao, so they didn't interrupt, just stood there and wiped their tears .

Li Langzhong's relatives also came to help, the men were setting up the mourning hall according to the custom, and the women came in to persuade Yao Shi, but seeing Li Langzhong's apprentice Tang Dai was persuading Yao Shi, she also wiped tears along with her.

Everyone accompanied Tang Dai to persuade Yao shi, everyone's meaning was that the dead are gone, the living have to live on, no matter how reluctant he is, he can't come back to life, and he has to grit his teeth for the sake of the child.

Yao's mood gradually stabilized under everyone's persuasion, because Li Langzhong's funeral had to be borne by her.He got up and said that he was going to scoop up hot water, and he wanted to scrub Li Langzhong, change into clean clothes, and let Mr. Li go away clean.
