Chapter 249 Little 6
Chapter 249 Little 6
I wanted to invite Wang Shiba to dinner, but he declined, saying we could do it next time as he was worried about him leaving the army for too long.
So I went out to the street to buy some food, packed a large portion for him, and then slowly returned to my residence.
My steps feel a little weak. I haven't worked as a human for a long time. I was too busy to have time to eat. I cried a lot at noon and my energy was greatly damaged. Now I feel my legs and feet feel a little weak.
Oh, by the way, I actually forgot that I no longer have a young body, and I have no spiritual power. I have to use this body carefully in the future, and I can’t do it the same way as before.
I walked for a while, and the road that didn't seem far when I came here now felt extremely long.
Suddenly, my vision went dark. I quickly reached out to hold onto the pillar in front of me and squatted down for fear of fainting and falling.
"Go away! Don't stand here and delay our business!" A rough voice sounded in the shop.
Although I wanted to move, it was difficult to lift a finger. Fortunately, he didn't come out to chase me away.
"Wang Laoqi, can't you see that she is feeling uncomfortable?! Why are you chasing her away?! With your bad temper, you will ruin your business if you keep squatting at your door!" A man's voice with a slightly high tone sounded.
The gruff voice snorted and didn't respond, probably because it knew it was unreasonable.
Then I felt a pair of small hands holding me and gently lifting me up: "Sister, what's wrong with you? I'm a doctor, can I take a look at you?"
I forced myself to open my eyes and looked over, and a man's face appeared in front of me.
At this moment, those eyes were full of concern and were looking at me intently.
I shook my head weakly, and he continued, "Are you worried that I'll charge you too much? No problem! I won't charge you."
I waved my hands and replied in a mosquito-like voice: "It's okay, I just worked too hard and forgot to eat, I'll be fine after a while."
After hearing this, he quickly took out the food I had just bought from the small basket on my back, helped me sit aside, broke off a piece of date cake and put it in my mouth, and fed me some water.
Soon after the food went down my throat, I felt that the sweating stopped, my stomach wasn’t as empty anymore, my hands stopped shaking, and my feet weren’t as weak anymore.
Seeing this, he gave me more until he finished the whole date cake.
I looked up at him and smiled, "Thank you."
He waved his hand and said, "Sure, sure! You're welcome! We all live in this town, so it's normal for neighbors to take care of each other! It's just that you look unfamiliar, and I don't know where you live, and what's your name?"
I replied, "I live in the fifth shop over there. I just moved in today. My name is...Bai Ruping."
He smiled as well, his eyes curved into a crescent moon. "I was wondering why I had never seen you before, it turns out you're new here! My name is Wen Xiaoliu, I'm the little doctor at Huichuntang by the river. If you have any problems with infertility, menstrual problems, or qi and blood deficiency, you can come to me for treatment."
I didn't know what to feel, I just stared at him. Wen Xiaoliu, you are such a kind-hearted doctor.
Seeing me staring at him, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Well, sister, let me take you home. I'm not busy right now anyway, and it would be bad if you have the same problem again on the way home."
After that, he helped me up and said, "Doctors don't avoid men and women, so don't blame me for being abrupt."
I shook my head slightly. "I can't thank you enough, so how can I blame you? Then I'd rather obey you than be disrespectful. Please send me back."
He held my hand and walked slowly with me. Along the way, many people greeted him and called him "Sixth Brother". It seemed that he was very popular.
He responded with a smile, and soon helped me back to my shop.
Xiao Wei must have waited a long time for me to come back, and now she was leaning against the door anxiously, looking out, and seeing me being helped back from afar, she rushed out and asked anxiously, "Sister, what happened?!"
Xiaoliu was startled when he saw her, then replied, "Your eldest sister is feeling unwell on the street and has no strength left. It's okay."
I was taken from him by Xiaowei, and just as I was about to answer, Xiaowei glared at him: "She is not the eldest sister! My sister is not old!"
Xiao Liu was startled, and then he looked at me again, then he bowed his hands and apologized, "Please forgive me, young lady! I saw your hair was gray at the temples, and I was in a hurry and didn't see clearly, so I thought you were old. Now that I look closely, you are not old, not old at all!"
I shook my hand and said, "Sixth brother, don't be polite. It's just appearance, it's not important. Yiping, don't be rude. Go see Doctor Xiaoliu and thank him for sending me back."
Xiao Wei was startled when I suddenly called her by her full name, but she quickly reacted and bowed to Xiao Liu, saying, "Thank you, doctor! I apologize for my rudeness just now. Please come in and have a cup of tea and some snacks before you leave."
Xiao Liu shook his hands repeatedly: "No need, no need! I have to go see a patient later. It's almost time. I have to leave now!"
Xiao Wei didn't want to keep him, so she ran into the house to get some cakes from Tushan Mansion, wrapped them up, and handed them to him, saying, "Sixth brother, go and do your work first. These snacks are for you to fill your stomach on the way. Please come and sit with us when you come down next time!"
Xiaoliu's eyes lit up when he saw the exquisite cakes. He took them with a smile and said, "That's great! Thank you, girls. When I'm free, I'll bring you some tonics. Goodbye for now."
After saying that, he nodded and walked away.
Seeing that he had walked away, Xiaowei helped me slowly return to the front hall and sat down.
I had been feeling very nervous, but now I calmed down and smiled at Xiao Wei shyly: "It has not been long since I regained my human form, so I am still a little uncomfortable. I am sorry to have worried you."
Xiao Wei squatted down and looked at my face carefully, and replied: "I'm glad you're okay. I was thinking about you. Why didn't you come back? Sister, why weren't you in human form before? What happened to you? Where's your spiritual power?"
I opened my mouth to answer, but suddenly remembered the oath I swore. I swallowed the truth and replied, "Nothing. Someone said he knew the whereabouts of the young master and wanted to exchange spiritual power for it. I was deceived by him."
Xiao Wei was indignant: "Who is this wicked person? How could he be so evil?! I'm going to kill him!"
I waved my hands, "Forget it, it's all in the past. He used a fake name, and his appearance probably changed, too. I have no idea who he is."
Xiao Wei said angrily: "Then, I curse the bad guys to be struck by lightning!"
I nodded and comforted her, "It's not that I don't want to take revenge, it's just that the time has not come yet."
Xiao Wei fed me a green plum cake and nodded vigorously: "Next time if you meet him, you must tell me and I will beat him for you!"
I smiled and touched her face: "Xiaowei, be good. I'll rely on you when the time comes."
Xiao Wei raised her little face, the radiance of youth was clearly visible: "Don't worry, I have no interest in learning literature, nor do I like needlework, this is the only thing I am good at!"
I thought to myself that she wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing in the future, so she could do whatever she wanted. If I forced her to go to school, she wouldn't be happy since she is not illiterate.
