Chapter 18 The Second Meeting
Chapter 18 The second meeting
Ah Li wasn't too sad, he just felt a little bored.
On this day, she secretly ran to pick up four men from school as usual.
As soon as I reached the bridge, I saw the little brother I saw last time who had fainted on the ground. He was standing alone by the bridge looking at the river in a daze.
Suddenly I remembered that when I passed by the river with her mother a few days ago, the second girl in the village stood by the river like this and jumped into the river.
Her mother told her that this was just out of her mind and she must not do such stupid things. The second child would have no mother in the future.
Ah Li rushed towards Lu Qingling anxiously, "Brother, don't do it!"
As a result, Ah Li didn't stop and bumped straight into Lu Qingling.
Lu Qingling turned her head when she heard the voice and didn't react.
"Plop"
The two little guys fell into the river together.
Villagers passing by immediately shouted: "A baby fell into the river."
"Hurry and save people."
After Ah Li fell, he felt as free as returning home. He didn't feel uncomfortable at all and even swam twice excitedly.
Turning around, she suddenly saw Lu Qingling struggling in the water, and she quickly swam to him.
He raised his head to the water with his little hands.
Soon Lu Qingling's bodyguard Lu Yun caught them both up.
Ah Li was fine at all, except that he was soaked all over.
Lu Qingling drank some water and fainted.
Lu Yun laid him on his shoulders and vomited out the water in his stomach after walking for a few times.
Then Youyou woke up, and this time he saw Ah Li's appearance clearly.
The wet little girl looks very delicate, not like a farm child at all, and her round eyes are as bright as stars.
What a cute little dumpling.
Lu Qingling wanted to say something, but she felt a little weak, so Lu Yun took him away.
Ah Li could only watch his beautiful little brother walk away.
The woman holding her said: "Let's send this girl home quickly! It's too bad, even though the weather isn't cold, she fell into the river and got soaked all over her body. If she catches the cold, she'll be in trouble."
At this time, there was a rush of footsteps in the distance.
"Li Li, Li Li, are you okay? Don't scare me!"
It turned out that the Pei family, Zhang family and Yan family had arrived.
They were planting vegetables in the yard and heard a villager tell them that A Li had fallen into the river.
They dropped their hoes and ran to the river immediately.
"From the Changlu family, your children are here."
The woman holding Ah Li waved to Mrs. Pei.
Mrs. Pei walked over quickly and saw that A Li was soaked to the skin, so she quickly took her from the woman's hand and held her in her arms.
"Thank you very much, Sister-in-law Wu. Lili's clothes are wet. I'll take her home to change her clothes first. Then I'll go to your house to thank you."
"Hey, why are you so polite to me? I just hugged your little Lili. The person who really rescued her was the noble family next to the school. Stop talking and take the little Lili home quickly.
Get some clothes!"
Mrs. Pei nodded and didn't stay any longer. She hugged Ah Li and hurried back home.
Zhang boiled hot water, gave her a hot bath, and put her into clean and comfortable clothes.
Yan made a bowl of ginger soup for her, fearing that she wouldn't like the taste of ginger, so she also added some brown sugar given to her by her parents' family.
"Second sister-in-law, can I not drink this soup that tastes weird?"
"If you fall into the river, you will easily catch a cold and get sick. This ginger soup can drive away the cold. I put sweet sugar in it. Do you want to take a taste first?"
Ah Li looked at the spoon in front of him for four or five seconds, then opened his mouth and took a sip.
Although it smells weird, it tastes really sweet, as long as you don't smell it, it will be fine.
Just like this, I drank a bowl of ginger soup in one mouthful while holding my nose.
"Li Li, tell mother, why did you fall into the river?"
"When Lili saw his little brother standing by the river, he was afraid that he would die like Erwaniang."
Pei's third mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other, but neither of them expected this to be the case.
They didn't know what was going on with the nobleman next door to the school, but they vaguely heard that he came here to recuperate.
"Mom, it's not like that family member is suffering from illness and can't think about it anymore!"
"It's really possible. Don't go out and talk nonsense about this. It's not good for others."
Then Pei said to Ah Li: "Li Li can go to an adult if he encounters something like this in the future. Do you understand that you, a child, can't stop it?"
"Mom, it seems that my little brother was accidentally pushed down before he jumped into the river."
These words shocked Pei's third wife-in-law.
In the evening, Mrs. Pei discussed the matter with Lin Changlu and his son.
They all felt that no matter what, they rescued their carp from the river, and they still needed to thank them.
Ah Li accidentally knocked him into the river. Ah Li did something bad with good intentions. Tell them, and reasonable people won't blame him.
The next day, Mrs. Pei caught a home-raised chicken and took Ah Li to the entrance of the yard next to the school.
"Knock knock"
The person who opened the door was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old servant. He looked at Mr. Pei and Ah Li, and Mr. Pei was holding a chicken tied with five-flowered flowers in his hand.
"What's wrong with you?"
Mrs. Pei quickly said with a smile: "Brother, I am a villager in Taohua Village. Yesterday, my daughter was rescued from the river by your family. We are here to express our gratitude."
The servant also knows what happened yesterday.
"You guys wait here for a moment, I'll go in and let you know."
"Okay, thank you very much, brother."
They didn't wait long outside the door before the servants came out and invited them into the yard.
The person who received them was Lu Yun.
He now sees that Ah Li is a bit complicated, and he doesn't know whether this little girl is a blessing or a curse to his young master.
If it was a blessing, every time the young master met her, he would either be crushed or knocked into the river. If it was a misfortune, it seemed that every time he met her, the young master's illness would get better, and his health would be much better than before.
But he was still afraid of something unexpected happening, and he still didn't want his young master to have too much contact with Ah Li.
"Auntie, do you have any business with my master?"
"This young lady is here today to thank you for saving my daughter's life yesterday. Our family has nothing else to offer. This chicken is raised by our family. Please don't dislike it."
.”
Lu Yun didn't expect Mrs. Pei to be so polite, which made him a little embarrassed.
"Auntie, don't be so polite. You should save people. I have received my thanks. I can't take back the chicken, please take it back. My master is young and not in good health, so he won't entertain guests."
Mrs. Pei thought in her heart that the other party's expression seemed a little bad. Could it be that they blamed Ah Li for accidentally knocking his master into the river?
She quickly added: "Young Master, just accept it! I feel uneasy if you don't accept it. When I went back yesterday, I asked my family, and it turned out to be her..."
