Chapter 136 Eating grass
"Then I guess grandparents aren't at home either..."
"What's wrong?" Meng Xiu'er looked at An Yue's expression and asked worriedly.
An Yue brushed the hair by her ear and covered it up, "No...it's okay."
An Yue was afraid that her new sister-in-law would be scared, so she didn't say a word about the east room door being pried open.
The boy turned over under the stove, and the dead branches and leaves made a sound.
Meng Xiuer, who was standing beside the Eight Immortals Table, was startled by the noise in the kitchen. She turned her head and asked nervously, "Who's there...?"
An Yue saw her sister-in-law looking at the stove and quickly explained, "Oh! There is a man over there. When I came back from town today, I saw him sitting on the side of the road with serious injuries, so I brought him back."
After hearing what An Yue said, Meng Xiuer shook her head and said, "Yueyue, this... isn't good, right?"
Meng Xiuer walked towards the kitchen curiously, and An Yue followed closely behind her.
An Yue walked straight towards the boy, squatted down, and touched the boy's forehead with the back of her hand. It was no longer as hot as before. It seems that the medicinal effects of these herbs are still useful.
An Yue asked: "Do you still feel uncomfortable somewhere now?"
The boy's complexion is now much better than before. It seems that if he rests for a few more days, his energy and blood will be fully restored.
The young man replied, "No problem."
The boy wanted to stand up, but the slightest movement of his body caused pain in his wounds.
An Yue hurriedly stopped him: "Your injuries haven't healed yet, so don't move."
Meng Xiuer stood there, looked at the boy carefully, walked forward and took An Yue's arm.
In a low voice, he said, "Yueyue, do you know his last name and first name? Where does he live?"
An Yue shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.
Meng Xiuer continued: "What if he is a bad guy..."
Although the boy was rescued by An Yue, he never told An Yue his last name or where he lived.
The young man saw the two of them whispering, so he said, "My name is Gu Mingchuan."
An Yue stood up and walked to the stove, picking the herbs in the basket and asked, "Why are you injured?"
Gu Mingchuan was slightly stunned.
——A moment later.
He replied: "My companions and I were passing through this place, but we encountered bandits on the way."
"After a fierce fight with the bandits, there were more people on the other side, so my companions and I were forced to disperse."
After listening to Gu Mingchuan's words, An Yue felt half-believing and half-doubting.
However, since he didn't intend to say it, An Yue didn't intend to ask again.
There are some things I don't want to talk about, and it's useless to ask.
Besides, it’s better not to know about those messy things.
Just be careful when dealing with him.
Just like before, she walked up to Gu Mingchuan with the herbs and warm water, and said casually, "Take the medicine first!"
Gu Mingchuan no longer resisted as before. He picked up one of the herbs, put it in his mouth and chewed it with a very painful expression.
The aunt and sister-in-law stood aside and watched, covering their mouths and smiling at each other.
An Yue sighed inwardly: [Looking at his condition, the efficacy of these herbs is quite good. Compared with antibiotics, they seem to be even better.]
Antibiotics in the 21st century have serious side effects, and there will be a rebound phenomenon after stopping the drug.
"Yueyue, I'll go back to the west room now." Meng Xiuer said, taking the bowl of chicken legs and preparing to leave.
An Yue called out: "Sister-in-law..."
Meng Xiuer turned her head and asked curiously, "What happened?"
An Yue reminded thoughtfully: "Bandits are rampant these days. My brother and sister-in-law will be returning home tomorrow. Remember to be careful on the road."
"Okay! Don't worry, Yueyue!" Meng Xiuer smiled and patted An Yue's arm gently.
After Gu Mingchuan finished taking the medicine, Meng Xiuer went back to the west room.
An Yue picked up the broom, swept the sparse rice straw on the ground, and tidied the house as usual.
There is one more person in the family now, and there is no extra bed frame.
After much thought, An Yue decided to move the eight-immortals table.
Then they moved the few remaining rice straws under the eaves into the house and laid a layer of rice straw along the corners of the wall.
An Yue thought that with one more person in the family, there would naturally be one more pair of chopsticks, and more dishes would need to be prepared.
So she picked up her sickle, slung her basket over her shoulder, and prepared to go out to dig wild vegetables.
"Girl, you want to go out?"
After An Yue said "hmm", she walked towards the yard with the basket on her shoulder.
The clouds are moving slowly and the sun is setting in the west.
Gu Mingchuan walked around the house and found that the house was simple.
At this time, An Nian came back from school.
As soon as I entered the yard gate, as usual, I put away the cross-body bag and prepared to go into the house.
As soon as I entered the east room, I saw a stranger sitting in my room.
"You...you...who are you?" An Nian asked hesitantly.
Just at this moment, An Yue came back with a basket full of wild vegetables.
An Nian quickly ran to An Yue and asked, "Sister, who is that person? Why is he in our house?"
An Yue patiently said to An Nian: "Nian Nian, when my sister came back from town today, she saw that he was seriously injured. The situation was urgent at the time, so she took him home for treatment."
"So that's how it is." An Nian felt relieved after hearing what An Yue said.
The brother and sister walked into the house, and An Yue introduced them to Gu Mingchuan: "This is my younger brother An Nian."
Then he introduced him to An Nian: "His name is Gu Mingchuan."
An Nian asked with a smile: "From now on, can Nian Nian call you Brother Mingchuan?"
Gu Mingchuan didn't say anything, just nodded.
It can be seen that An Nian is in a very good mood after returning today, and he seems to have become his cheerful self again.
I think I had a great time getting along with my classmates and friends in school.
An Yue put down the basket and asked with concern: "Niannian, have they given you any trouble again?"
An Nian hung the bag on a wooden stake on the wall and replied, "No, they treat me very well."
"That's good, that's good."
An Yue walked up to An Nian and said to him seriously, "Nian Nian, it's good that you study hard, but you also need to communicate with your classmates and friends."
An Nian scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Sister is right! I will pay attention to it every year in the future."
"Promise me that if you encounter something you can't handle properly in the future, you must tell me, okay?"
An Nian blinked and nodded affirmatively.
An Yue gently pinched An Nian's chubby face and said with a smile: "Niannian, are you hungry? Go! Change your clothes and we will cook dinner together."
Afterwards, An Nian went to his room happily to change his clothes, while An Yue went to the kitchen and brought back a wooden basin, ready to pick vegetables.
An Yue poured a full basket of wild vegetables on the ground, including small wild bamboo shoots, toon sprouts, wild garlic, and water celery.
After changing his clothes, An Nian quickly brought a small stool to An Yue, ready to pick vegetables with his sister.
Gu Mingchuan saw that the siblings had endless things to talk about as soon as they met and completely ignored his existence.
He looked a little awkward sitting on the bench, so he quickly came over.
He pointed at the wild vegetables on the ground in disbelief and asked:
