Chapter 215 - 215 Lost
215 Lost
“But you don’t have to worry for the next two days. I usually prepare food at home and bring it over. If you want more, I can prepare the soup base later.
“if you have anything you want to eat, you can tell me a day in advance. I’ll have them bring it to you after I’ve made it in the morning.”
Doctor Sun felt his old face heat up when he was treated so politely by Zhao Zhan. He took out a small porcelain bottle from his medicine box and handed it to him. “Thank you for taking care of me along the way. This is a gift I’ve prepared for you.”
“Doctor Sun, you don’t have to be so polite.”
“Just take it. I haven’t prepared the rest yet. I’ll prepare some good stuff for you after I’ve gone to search Zhou’s warehouse.”
Zhao Zhan’s hand was forcefully stuffed with a porcelain bottle.
In reality, what he had done for Doctor Sun was far less than what Doctor Sun had done for him. If he was willing to go to Willow Village, Zhao Zhan wouldn’t mind letting him follow.
In any case, there was a door in the middle of the front yard and the backyard. As long as it was locked, they would be separated into their own worlds and would not disturb his lover.
“You want my things? The antlers I used last time were bought for me by Zhao Zhan. Who knows how many good things there are on the mountain? If you really want to live there, you can go to the mountain and find some random things that could be of use.”
“Doctor Sun, if you’re willing to live in the village, Zhao Zhan and I will welcome you. Please make do with the shop for a few days. When we go back and clean the room, Zhao Zhan will come and pick you up.”
“Zhao Zhan! I heard you were back!” Yang Dashan heard the sound inside and pushed the door open. He was overjoyed to see Zhao Zhan. “I received your letter, Lizheng has been urging me to come to the shop every day to wait for you. I’ve been waiting for you to come back every day!”
“Yang Dashan,” Zhao Zhan stood up, holding his hand. Seeing the situation, he did not delay any further and informed the few people in the shop before leaving with his bag. “We should go back soon, it’s getting late.”
Lizheng’s ox cart didn’t have a shed to block the wind.
Zhao Zhan put a white rabbit fur cap on Jiaojiao’s head and let her sit in his arms. He wrapped her up with animal skin to shield her from the wind. “Yang Dashan, how’s the village?”
“Let’s not talk about it right now. Everyone has been staying up all night.” Yang Dashan’s eyes were dark.
“Fortunately, you mentioned last time that you would lend everyone the room behind the house.”
“I’ve moved the soybeans and chili from that room to my empty house. Now everyone has packed up their beds and is living in your empty house.”
Yang Dashan wiped the snow from his face, shrank his shoulders, and continued, “Good thing your house was also built with green bricks and tiles, they are very. Otherwise, everyone would have frozen to death.”
“Right now… No one dares to go out even during the day. Lizheng asked someone to come to the town to find the chief, but it was useless. The chief didn’t send anyone to help either.
“These days, it’s not just dangerous at night. Even during the day, people are afraid to leave the house.”
“Y-yang Dashan…” Jiaojiao’s voice was trembling from the cold, but her tone was stubborn and serious. “How is my Chengfeng doing?”
The ox cart suddenly trembled twice, and Jiaojiao’s heart sank a little. “Yang Dashan, how is my Chengfeng?”
“Chengfeng…” Yang Dashan murmured. He was almost crushed by guilt, “I didn’t take good care of Chengfeng. Chengfeng is gone.”
