Peasant Woman is in Her Prime - C145

The man had his back to the stream and was suddenly drenched. When he turned around, he saw that it was a handsome man.

After being startled for a moment, he did not care about his clothes that were sticking tightly to him, and quickly cupped his hands, bowing towards the man across the stream. “Little Du Jing is here, he’s the son that went to the capital to take the exam this spring. What’s your name, brother?”

Ji Lingyun smiled, then clapped her hands. “Brother Jing Laidi’s clothes are the same color as this riverbank, to think that you couldn’t see it clearly, and I am truly sorry that I spilled it all over you.”

With that, she jumped lightly onto the other side of the river bank, grabbed Du Jingli’s arm, and pulled him towards the east, “Brother Jing Lai, follow me. I know that there are guests at the back of the temple, I’ll take you there and find a monk to help you change your clothes.”

“No need, no need!” Du Jingli quickly waved his hands, but he couldn’t refuse the person in front of him. He could only allow him to pull him through the sparse trees to the back hall.

He sighed in his heart, “This noble person is a noble person, his heart is so good.”

After getting to know him a little, he could finally start to talk about borrowing money.

Lv Yun carried Lin’er who had just finished watching the Dragon Boat. When they reached the Linlang Workshop gate, Lin’er’s mouth was still making “Ta ta” sounds, mimicking the sound of a boat paddling in water.

When Lv Yun saw Lv Yun, she immediately grabbed her hand: “Sister Lv Yun, you came back at the right time, and I will not take the rice dumplings, and Xia Gu went to buy male yellow wine with her wet clothes, whether or not you eat today will all depend on you!”

Lv Yun shook her head and laughed: “There is a trick to wrapping up rice dumplings. I will teach you guys, you will definitely know how to do it!”

“Alright.” Xi Yu obediently complied, then brought Lv Yun to the back of the kitchen.

Zongzi leaves and glutinous rice were already prepared. The zongzi leaves were taken from the reed by the river, and the green and wide leaves were the most suitable for wrapping rice. In addition to the glutinous rice, there were also red beans, honey dates, and cured meat, which were divided into two flavors: sweet and salty.

Lv Yun moved the walking car over and placed the Lin’er inside.

Seeing that Si Rui was not here, she started to teach him. Lv Yun washed her hands, rolled up her sleeves and picked up two reeds leaves, one above held down the crisscrossing leaves, and folded them into a funnel shape.

Lv Yun grabbed the glutinous rice and filled up half of the funnel, then she placed the jujube inside, Lv Yun’s hands moved about, just as she finished filling the funnel, she saw Lin’er shakily chasing after a paper butterfly, rushing out of the kitchen and running towards the main hall.

No one knew who folded the paper butterfly, but it looked extremely lifelike. With a leap, it flew forward, just how could Lin’er catch up to it?

Seeing that the Lin’er had left her sight, Lv Yun became a little anxious, yet her hands were still occupied. Just as she wanted to scatter the rice dumplings that was about to be wrapped up, she chased after the Lin’er.

Xi Yu already ran out.

Seeing that, Lv Yun heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly closed the reeds leaves, and then used the rice straw to circle four to five rounds around, tying it up, and then walked out.

Just as he walked to the back door of the kitchen, he heard an alarmed cry from the hall, followed by the sound of something dropping into the water, followed by the piercing cry of Lin’er.

Lv Yun’s heart had reached her throat. After hearing that cry, it sounded like it had vanished, and her heart was burning with anxiety.

He rushed to the great hall just in time to see Jiang Chan jumping down the pond.

The Lin’er sank into the lake together with the chariot.

This pool was made according to the flow of the river, so there was a slight undercurrent.

The pool was not deep enough to be feared by adults, but it was deadly for children.

Lv Yun was scared to the point that her soul was about to fly out of her body, her legs and stomach felt weak, she walked forward a few steps and collapsed on the side of the pool, just as she was about to cry, she saw Jiang Chan’s hands supporting Lin’er.

Lin’er was cold enough, and had drank a lot of water, his face turning purple, but he could not even cry.

Lv Yun pounced over and rubbed Lin’er’s stomach, water gushing out of his mouth when he pressed it.

After spitting out most of the water, Xi Yu had already boiled some hot water. The few of them hurriedly brought Lin’er back to the house and changed his clothes.

Xi Yu burst into tears at the side: “When I left the kitchen, I saw Lin’er falling into the pond, and was so shocked that I became silly. It’s all thanks to Sister Jiang Chan’s quick reaction that saved my life, if not, I would not know what to do …”

After a long while, Lv Yun finally said with a sigh: “I was also scared senseless, I forgot about everything for a moment!”

As he said that, he slapped himself twice, and said: “If it wasn’t for Jiang Chan, I’m afraid that Lin’er would have …”

She did not dare to continue as she raised her head to see that Jiang Chan was still wearing her wet clothes. The coldness made her lips turn black and her body trembled non-stop.

Lv Yun quickly said: “Quickly, quickly go back to the house to wash. Xi Yu, you will follow and cook a bowl of ginger soup for Jiang Chan to drink.

Lv Yun looked at Lin’er, “When Lin’er gets better, when shopkeeper comes back, he will personally come to thank you!”

Tzu En Temple. Inside the Great Hall, it was solemn and serene, with green smoke billowing in the air.

Jin Xiaolou knelt on the prayer mat in front of the Buddha statue, respectfully kowtowed three times, and said softly: “First, I wish that you have returned safe and sound, second, I wish that Lin’er has grown up safe and sound, and third, that everything goes according to your wishes.”

Then, he got up, went to the monk beside him, and asked for a bunch of fragrant ashes. As soon as he walked out of the hall, he heard a commotion from behind the temple.

Jin Xiaolou followed the crowd and walked towards the back. When she stepped into the backyard, she saw Du Jing with no clothes on, only wearing a pair of tight pants. In front of him, was a woman with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes crying.

The woman was naturally Ji Lingyun. She wiped away her tears with one hand and held onto Du Jingli’s arm with the other, saying, “You’ve also seen it and touched it, so you have to be responsible to me!”

The people around pointed and talked to each other. Du Jingli’s face was completely red, and he didn’t know what to say. He only said intermittently, “I don’t know a thing about it …” “And here I thought, I thought you were a man …”

“If you don’t know, can you just let it go?” The more Ji Lingyun cried, the more she grieved, “My reputation has all been ruined!”

“I won’t let you off!” Du Jingli opened his mouth and said, “Miss, where does the girl live and what is her name? I … I’ll come tomorrow to propose marriage.”

Ji Lingyun immediately stopped crying and laughed slyly: “Alright, Black Tortoise Street, North side, WeChat Lane, Ji Mansion, tomorrow, I will wait for you to propose marriage!”

After saying that, he combed his hair, turned around and left.

Du Jinglei was the only one left standing there in a daze. “Ji …” Ji Mansion, the residence of the Minister of Revenue, Ji Luo Yu? ”

“That master is really an immortal, he’s such a great benefactor!”

When Jin Xiaolou returned to the Linlang Workshop, the Lin’er was still unconscious.

Lv Yun was so anxious that her throat was swollen, even her voice was hoarse. When Jin Xiaolou was examining the Lin’er, Lv Yun explained everything that had happened in detail.

Jin Xiaolou took out the《 Thousand Gold Prescription》 from the bed cabinet, checked the dosage of the medicine she couldn’t remember clearly, sat down at the desk to write the prescription, and said to Lv Yun: “Don’t be anxious, Lin’er is just frightened. She’s also cold, so after drinking the hot soup and have a good night’s sleep, she’ll be fine.”

Lv Yun took the prescription, and then kneeled down facing Jin Xiaolou: “Shopkeeper, it’s my fault, every time I meet with something important, I’ll go soft, and I can’t hold back my tears, I only know how to cry, it’s really useless!”

As she spoke till here, Lv Yun started to cry again, “Today, it was all thanks to Jiang Chan. If she wasn’t here, and if something were to happen to Lin’er, how would I be able to face the shopkeeper …”

Jin Xiaolou quickly pulled Lv Yun up, she also understood. Some people, especially those who had never seen many great worlds, would easily panic when they met with something.

Lv Yun was kind and smart, but she was a little timid and always cried.

Jin Xiaolou thought that if she were to keep Lv Yun by his side, she would need to find a chance to train her.

“En, you are at fault for this matter. Since you did not take good care of Lin’er, then …” Jin Xiaolou handed over the written prescription to Lv Yun, “I’m punishing you by going to the pharmacy to get the medicine, make up for your past deeds!”

“Yes, yes!” Lv Yun immediately took it, “Innkeeper, I’ll go right now!”

After Lv Yun left, Jin Xiaolou sat on the side of the Lin’er’s bed.

Jiang Chan’s name still echoed in her ears.

She just happened to be there…

Jin Xiaolou understood Lin’er very well, Lin’er loved to follow others and rarely ran away alone. Furthermore, Lin’er had always been smart, even though he was only a year old now, he could tell the difference between the two.

She didn’t believe that the Lin’er would fall into that pond herself.

Tonight, he had to properly thank that Jiang Chan!
