For Lin Ruyu, who has been an orphan for seventeen years, helping the chef make noodles is a piece of cake.

But these things cannot be told to her mother. Lin Ruyu whispered while mixing the noodles, "My daughter heard from Que'er before that she tried it with flour and sugar she found in the backyard kitchen, and she didn't expect it to really rise.

"

Que'er is the daughter of Lin Ruyu's wet nurse Zhao, and she has served Lin Ruyu personally for many years. A few days ago, Que'er, her daughter, and their guardian were both killed by bandits at the foot of Ma Tou Mountain.

Thinking of the ten guards, eight maidservants and sixteen bodyguards who were killed at the foot of Ma Tou Mountain, Fang straightened her back and lowered her face, looking firmly at the flames burning in the stove, as the mistress of the house.

His aura was fully activated, "When I return to Xuanzhou, I will definitely settle this bloody debt with them. No one from the Ma Tou Mountain bandits, including Fang Caiwang, Dong Wenyin, and Fan Genyuan, can escape!"

The Lin family is a large family in Xuanzhou, the Fang family's natal family is more powerful in Mianzhou, and Lin Ruyu's uncle also holds an official position. It is no problem to deal with a small county magistrate who got up from nowhere.

Lin Ruyu responded crisply, and then warned, "Mom, don't mention the matter of Dong Wenyin and Fan Genyuan to anyone yet. After all, we have no real evidence and we are still in Qi County."

An Ziyuan and those two people were accomplices. If his mother mentioned it in front of An Ziyuan, she might arouse An Ziyuan's murderous intention.

Fang nodded, "Mom, I understand. The news of our accident can't be sent to Mianzhou so quickly, but Xuanzhou must have gotten the letter. I don't know who your second uncle sent here. Don't come here by himself..."

Hearing this, Lin Ruyu's eyes lit up.

Lin Ruyu's grandfather only had two sons, one direct son and one concubine. In the last life, news of the accident on Ma Tou Mountain came back to the Lin family, and the second uncle hurriedly called two large ships to come for search and rescue.

After Lin Ruyu was brought back to Xuanzhou by An Ziyuan, she learned about this and immediately ordered someone to find her second uncle to go home. The day after her second uncle returned home, the Wolong Embankment burst.

Judging from the time, the second uncle should have received the news by now and asked the steward to prepare the boat. Based on Lin Ruyu's understanding of the second uncle, even if there is a flood, he will not return, but will continue to go west to find their whereabouts

.

In other words, in the next half month, the second uncle may take a boat and pass by Haolian Village!

Lin Ruyu's eyes became brighter and she felt more energetic. She comforted her mother and said, "According to the time calculation, even if the second uncle gets the news, he will have to prepare for a day or two before setting off. He shouldn't have left Xuanzhou yet. He won't."

To catch up with the flood, my mother will light the fire first, and my daughter will go to the backyard vegetable garden to pick some eggplants."

"Sister, I'll go too!" Little Aheng pulled Dafu in and ran in. His eyes lit up when he heard about picking vegetables.

Dafu also said, "Me too..."

"The eldest brother has injuries on his soles and legs and cannot touch the water anymore." Lin Ruyu asked Dafu to sit on the small wooden pillar and poured the boiled dandelions in the medicine jar into the wooden basin for washing feet. "The eldest brother is here to accompany my mother."

Dear, use the hot steam from the basin to steam the wounds on the soles of your feet, don't burn them. A Heng and I will go pick vegetables."

"Okay -" when little A Heng heard that he could go, he immediately grabbed the vegetable basket, took his sister's hand and wanted to rush into the rain, "Sister, let's go!"

After noon, the rain had subsided a lot, and the accumulated water on the ground had receded, revealing a clean slate path. Lin Ruyu held an umbrella in one hand and held her younger brother, who was stepping on the slate hard and splashing water with the other hand, and happily hurried to the backyard vegetable garden.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they passed the main hall, they met An Jiachun carrying food.

An Jiachun bowed slightly and saluted, "Miss Lin, I am on my way to deliver food to you and Mrs. Lin under the orders of my young master."

Although she couldn't see what food he was covering, Lin Ruyu still declined with a smile, "What a coincidence, my mother is steaming steamed buns in the courtyard, and she said that she would send them to the benefactor after they were steamed."

An Jiachun...

Arriving at the entrance to the vegetable garden in the backyard, Lin Ruyu frowned when she saw the vegetable seedlings staggering underfoot. She asked Aheng to hold an umbrella and wait on the stone road. Lin Ruyu stepped on big wooden clogs and entered the vegetable garden to pick a basket full of bamboo. eggplant.

There was less than half a tank of oil in the small oil tank in the temple. Lin Ruyu was reluctant to use it for cooking, so she cut the eggplant into several cuts and steamed it into the big pot together with the steamed buns.

Because he knew that An Ziyuan had cooked by himself, and Shen Ge also mentioned that they would cook for themselves at noon, this pot of steamed buns and steamed eggplants belonged to their family of four.

When the vegetable porridge, cold steamed eggplant and steaming steamed buns were placed on the dining table in the main room, the family, who had gone through many hardships, could finally sit down around the same table and have a hot meal.

The four of us were extremely satisfied with this meal.

In the main room of the west courtyard, An Ziyuan looked gloomily at the steamed rice on the table and the green vegetables on the plate, with no appetite.

In the kitchen, Uncle Ma, who was guarding a bowl of steamed rice and a large bowl of cucumbers, saw that Shen Ge was a little tired and asked, "Ge'er, what's wrong with you? Why do you eat so little?"

Shen Ge shook his head, his face a little confused, "Maybe he hasn't digested the two bowls of porridge yet, so he doesn't feel like eating."

"Don't worry about getting caught in the rain. Are you going to get into trouble?" Fang Jiayin touched Shen Ge's forehead with the back of his hand. "I don't have a fever. Maybe I'm tired. Don't go anywhere tonight and have a good sleep before we talk."

Unexpectedly, Shen Ge fell asleep and couldn't get up.

In the evening, when Mrs. Fang brought her three children to the west courtyard to give them food she had cooked to express her gratitude, she realized that Shen Ge had developed a fever.

It was still raining, and there was no medical treatment or medicine here. The fever could not go away, but it could kill someone. Fang became angry, and Lin Ruyu became anxious.

When the tearful Shengzi saw Lin Ruyu, he felt like he had seen a savior. He pulled her to the east wing and said, "Second sister, please give my brother a quick treatment. He is almost in a state of fever and confusion."

When Shengzi pulled Lin Ruyu into the house, he secretly scratched Lin Ruyu's palm twice with his hand. Lin Ruyu, who was anxious, was stunned for a moment, but her heart calmed down.

She was sick and went to the doctor indiscriminately to give birth to a child. How could her daughter be cured? However, Ms. Fang did not stop her. Instead, she invited An Ziyuan, who looked not very good-looking, to go to the east wing to visit Shen Ge.

When Fang entered the room, she knew that Shen Ge had a fever because his face was red.

Seeing Mrs. Lin and Lin Ruyu coming, Shen Ge, who was dizzy, quickly sat up from the bed, but because he got up so hard, he almost fell off the bed. Fortunately, Uncle Ma grabbed him and pushed him back to the bed. .

"My dear benefactor is ill, so you don't have to pay attention to these false etiquettes." Fang raised her hands in vain, and when she saw him like this, she started to think of something, "I'll go and make a bowl of ginger syrup for my benefactor."

Shen Ge, who had only been injured and never got sick since he was a child, really didn't think that his current condition was a big deal. However, when he spoke, his voice was hoarse than usual, "I have drank ginger syrup, and I will feel better after sweating." , Auntie Lao is worried."

An Ziyuan, who was standing nearby, looked at Mrs. Lin who had a worried face, and then at Shen Ge, who was about the same age as Lin Ruyu and had a very outstanding appearance, and clenched the fists in his sleeves.
