Paternity
Chapter 79



Dad, you're back!"


Seeing Su Aobai back, Er Niang took the initiative to greet him and take the bamboo basket on his back. This made Su Aobai slightly flattered. He understood that the estrangement between father and son could not be eliminated overnight. Ready to fight a prolonged war.


He had no idea that last night when he was absorbing spiritual energy from all directions, a portion of the abundant spiritual energy gathered in Erniang which was only a single curtain away from him.


There were very few auras in this world, and ordinary people were no match for cultivating.The reason why Su Aobai was able to use his original body to pity his cultivation method reluctantly was due to his extremely strong soul force, which was why he was so powerful, commonly known as spiritual power .


Therefore, Su Aobai could only let go of the idea of teaching her daughter to practice, but she did not know that even though ordinary people were unable to practice, she could not practice, but in an environment with abundant spiritual energy for a long time, the potential of the body would be slowly stimulated, and gradually have the physical fitness of superhuman strength.


The process he was mobilizing the aura was actually the process of increasing the concentration of the aura in his territory. Since Erniang slept very close to him, he accidentally enjoyed this benefit. Waves of aura last night initially washed away his mortal body. His five senses slightly improved, so Erniang who was standing in the courtyard actually heard all the words they said not far from the hut earlier.


From this, we can also see Su Youwen's consideration.


If he really wanted to confess to his second brother, he could choose to wait for him in the hut, the distance between the house and the field, and their conversation could not be heard by ordinary people.


But Su Youwen chose to stop Su Aobai on the small street in the middle of the field that was still a bit away from the small courtyard.Rather than apologizing to Li, he said, it is better to say that he deliberately told those who were working in the fields listening.


There was no shortage of smart people in the village, even if they did not see it at first, they should have understood Su Youwen's calculations after being pushed back by Su Aobai just now.


"Today's harvest is good."


Although she did not know the reason for her daughter's sudden closeness, everything was going in a good direction, so Su Aobai naturally accepted it with pleasure.


He untied the bamboo basket on his back, leaned most of his body on the crutches, and handed the bamboo basket to his daughter.


"Well guess what treasure Dad took today?"


The bamboo basket was already full of a basket of jamu-------------/Yiyiy?Hua/Change some recipes, plus that little silver, was actually not too heavy, For a little girl like Er Niang who was used to doing farm work, she could carry it with one hand.


So Su Aobai did not say anything about pitying him and did not let him take it, it was too empty and untouchable.


He had just handed the bamboo basket to the girl, and then naturally took her free hand, and then brought it inside the house.


The palm of the little girl's hand was very small, and her fingers, which should have been smooth, were already covered in thick calluses, which tickled to the touch, almost rivaling the thick palm of her original body.


At first Erniang wanted to break free unconsciously, as he had never been this close to his father, but soon, his attention was diverted by what father had said just now.


Of course, it was also possible that he subconsciously did not want to let go of his father's hand.


"What baby?"


Erniang looked down at the bamboo basket, and saw only a few medicines wrapped in yellow paper, and a cloth bag with an open corner at the bottom.


"I'll show you when I get back to my room."


Su Aobai dragged him back to the bedroom, and then mysteriously told her to close the doors and windows.His expression aroused Erniang's curiosity.The little girl finally had a little bit of liveliness that she should have at this age.She jumped like a rabbit into shutting the windows tightly, then close the door.


"Dad, what kind of baby is that?"


He crawled onto the bed in pairs and moved closer to his father's side, his eyes full of excitement.


"You guess."


Seeing his appearance, Su Aobai inevitably wanted to tease him, this child was too resourceful, a child this age had to catch a chicken and chase a dog.


"The zujube? Mountain twist? Fried in August?"


Erniang mentioned a few names of wild fruits on the mountain this season, and he could not help but lick his lips while speaking.


Su Aobai thought in her heart that she should buy some snacks for her daughter, and her daughter should have what the girl pampered by others had.


"I can't guess it."


After guessing a few times in a row, Erniang's small mouth almost pouted.


"Open up and see for yourself."


He pushed the bamboo basket forward, and gestured for Erniang to look for himself. Erniang whose curiosity has been adjusted to the highest level, has long been unable to bear. After obtaining Father's permission, he immediately reached out to find the bottommost package, which was quite heavy rather awkwardly, was it a stone?


He tore his wrapping cloth several times, and was surprised by some broken silver bars inside.


Silver, silver!


What tree on the mountain still contains silver?


Su Erniang's small head was slightly stunned for now, and there was only a tree full of silver in his mind, and when he shook it, all the silver chunks on it fell down.


Following the delusion, there was another person in the picture, that person was his father, who was holding a bamboo basket high, collecting all the silver that fell into the basket under the tree.


After thinking about it, Su Erniang felt pleased with himself.


"Today, Father found ginseng at the foot of the mountain and exchanged it for this silver. Son, what do you want now, I can satisfy you, and I'll buy it for you."


Su Aobai said proudly.


Ginseng turned!


The fantasy was shattered, and Su Erniang was still a little disappointed, if there was indeed a tree that made money, then the family would have a lot of money for the father to go to the doctor.


But soon he realized, ginseng! Ginseng turned!


Erniang knew that the cousins of the third uncle's family would always have some miraculous chance, though, and climbing the mountain to collect ginseng was one of them.The second mother kept these items from her cousin out of fear that the money earned from selling ginseng would become public property.


However, those things were hard to hide from me who basically worked at home the entire time, so Erniang also learned that ginseng was a very valuable medicinal ingredient.


He is not afraid of people's jokes. He also secretly searched for ginseng while cutting pigweed, but unfortunately found nothing. Later, he realized that ginseng was rare. He was just an ordinary person, and his cousin wanted to say that He was a man of great fortune.


So despite his jealousy, he did not dare to provoke his cousin.In Erniang's mind, if a person with bad character like him harmed his God-blessed cousin, life would definitely be worse.


But now her father has found her baby too!


"How much money is this, can it do a lot of things?"


Erniang was holding a pile of broken silver on his skinny arm, as he had never touched any silver money before, so he had no idea what it was worth and how much it could do, either, but he knew that silver was more valuable than copper coins, so it must have been a lot of money.


The little girl was a little excited, and her thin yellow face was also flushed red with excitement at this moment.


Under the gesture of her father's eyes, the little girl gathered her courage, and whispered her plan with her fingers.


"With this money, Dad could go to the area to find a doctor with better medical skills to look at his legs."


I just don't know if that kind of money is enough.


"Dad and Dr. Li made a deal. From now on, we will go to the mountain to collect herbs every day, and we will exchange the recipes that have already been prepared with it. Everyone's gonna look the same at Dad's feet."


Su Aobai thought to herself, how could there be such a docile little girl in this world, she asked what she wanted with all that money, but she immediately thought of her injured leg.


Obviously his real body was very indifferent to her, seeing her being bullied by a godly old woman like Li Shi at home, but after a few words made her mistake her thinking that "father" always loved her, but after a few words made her mistake, he not only trusted her, but also He kept her as the most important person.


As a father who was protected by his daughter, Su Aobai was naturally moved, but when he thought that his daughter was so easily deceived, he was a little unhappy, she was, isn't it easy for a foolish and generous little girl to be coaxed away in the future.


At the last analysis, she still lacked love, so if she got a little love, she could sacrifice herself for it.


"Dad's feet will be fine."


He raised his head and said in a very firm tone.


"In the future, I will also go collect herbs with my father, and exchange better medicines with Grandpa Li, but I don't know what they look like. Dad will teach me. I'll learn it a few more times, and I'll definitely remember it."


He knew many edible weed mushrooms, as long as he memorized them several times, he could definitely remember what the herbs were like.


"Okay, I'll teach you."


Su Aobai stroked her yellowing hair, of course, her son was the most obedient and cute in the world.


But because Dr. Li could exchange medicine for wounds, what else was the money used for?


"Dad, can we buy this house from the village chief's grandfather? We can also fix the kang and the roof, and buy a calf. When the calf is big, I'll be big too..."


Then he could take the calf to the field, so that he could farm like a grown man.In this way, even though his father's leg injury could not be treated properly, there were still people who took care of those three acres of land, and they both would not die of starvation.


The little girl************ her finger and carefully calculated the use of the money.


Still didn't mention what he wanted himself.


"What you say will be available sooner or later. Dad asked me what do you want? Sweet sour sweets haw? Hot meat bun? Pretty new clothes or a red headband and a little silk flower?"


What Su Aobai said was something that Erniang had once envied.


Whenever Fubao was picked up to go to town, his uncle and wife would always buy him various snacks, but Fubao can cut it all year.New clothes .


As for the red-haired rope, when uncle went to work in the city, he bought it for his aunt and eldest sister, it was bright red, tied in black hair, and could be seen from a distance, just as beautiful. as flower.


As for silk flowers, they were even harder to reach, only Fu Bao and my aunt had hairpins that looked like real flowers.


Now dad asks if he wants these things, of course he wants them.


What does candied haw taste like? He tasted wild hawthorn on the mountain, so sour that it made people drool, and the sugar tasted sweet, was this sour and sweet mixed, was it really delicious? For children the same age in the village, anyone who has a bunch of haw sweets will be reluctant to eat them at once, if you hold one in the mouth, you will be happy all day long.


"It's too expensive."


He lowered his head and looked at the silver shards on his chest, he wanted them, but the silver in the house still had to be put to good use.


"Enough, we've got plenty of silver now."


Su Aobai had such a temperament. The brat in his previous two lives had angered him from time to time. He treated them well and at the same time wanted to tease them, but this girl was very obedient, so he just wanted to treat her desperately.


"Much?"


Erniang raised his head, his eyes flickering.


"Well, you can buy haw sweets and meat buns, you can buy beautiful clothes and hair straps, you can build houses and buy livestock, and you can do a lot of things."


In fact, these eighteen taels alone could not do much at all, but with her, there would be a steady flow of eighteen taels, and she would have to prepare for everything my daughter wanted.


"Then, I want one haw and two meat loaves, okay?"


Erniang's face grew redder, he was excited but tried his best to hold back, he flicked his finger, and obediently pleaded from his father.


There were many haw sweets, he could share them with his father, two meat loaves, exactly one for each person.


"OK, when we go to the market in the middle of the month, we'll go to the city together, and Dad will buy everything you want."


Su Aobai waved her hand arrogantly, does her daughter still need to buy haw sweets one by one? Round it up, and bring home a big stick filled with haw sweets.


"Yes!"


The little girl's voice was crisp.


He had never left Shili Village, what was the city like? Going to the market must be very crowded!


In the middle of the month, there would be many more days, the little girl was counting the time with her finger, and she could not wait any longer.


"If I had known that the days after the breakup were so happy, Dad should have proposed the breakup earlier."


It was not that Su Aobai did not want to fulfill his daughter's previous wishes, but the timing of the mid-month festival was right, and the distance of seven or eight days in between was enough for him to slowly "cure". "injured his leg, and then looked for some valuable herbs.


"Er Niang, don't you think it seems that after the breakup, our father's luck seems to be improving. It was only the second day after the separation. Dad found a big ginseng, and the people outside said that we were mine." dad and I were unlucky, can those unlucky ones find ginseng?"


Su Erniang was famous as Kemu in the village, but in fact Yuanchen also had it, because Yuanchen's mother was desperate to give birth to him and give birth to a child, but she died within two years, but she died, and that's how the Li family came.


And when people say that the second mother beat her mother, why don't they think that Yuanshen beat his wife?In fact, Yuanshen's life was much worse than her daughter's, but she had never felt an existence in the village. Men are more tolerant than women, so few people talk about it.


The horoscope is not good, Kemu, this is Erniang's secret inferiority complex.


Now hearing his father say that, Erniang suddenly felt a little more relaxed.


The days after the breakup were not as difficult as imagined, but every minute and every second was filled with excitement, even the air I breathed was sweet.


"It will definitely get better and better in the future."


Su Aobai said firmly.


"Yes!"


Erniang nodded firmly, if his father had always been like this, his life in the future would definitely be better and better.


The father and daughter sat on a simple kang bed, their faces filled with bright smiles of boundless hope for the future, which brightened the dilapidated house.


*****


In the days that followed, the people from the old house never came to look for him again, either, but there was often a handful of wild fruits and a bundle of plants outside the small courtyard where Su Aobai and her daughter lived.


Erniang accidentally bumped into someone who was secretly sending these items, but he did not tell his father, but dug a hole himself and buried all of these items in the ground.


He did not want to accept the kindness of the person, he did not want his father to think that the person was reasonable and kind, and his father was very kind now, he did not want to share in the slightest with others.


Although he was not as lucky as that person, he could always easily find wild fruits and vegetables at the foot of the mountain that the adults and children in the village had searched for many times, he said, but he would also work hard to find it. As for his father, he did not want any kindness or malice there.


Perhaps the other party also knew that he was unwilling to accept his kindness, after a few times, those things no longer appeared outside the grounds for no reason.


Seeing that, Erniang was relieved, but now, even though that person had come to express his kindness again, he did not care, because Erniang had a more important thing to do, which was to cook medicine for his father.


It is amazing to say that when he lived in an old house, his father drank dozens of expensive recipes for twenty taels, but his leg injury did not improve at all, but after moving to a small courtyard at the foot of this mountain, he boiled another cheaper recipe for his father in return


the medicinal ingredients were freshly picked, but his father's leg injury started to improve clearly.


At first, the black and purple parts on the injured leg gradually turned into normal flesh-colored blood, and the necrotic flesh gradually regained its elasticity, and his injuries looked much scarier than before.


Even Dr Li, who was treating Su Aobai, was surprised, no one understood the seriousness of Su's second leg injury better than him.


At first, when he said that there was basically no cure, he was just being polite According to Dr.Li's true thoughts, even if Hua Tuo was reborn, this leg was completely hopeless, she said, but the strange thing is that necrotic meat can be revived, and the place where the remaining toxins accumulate starts the poisoned blood comes out automatically, and the remaining toxins seem to slowly dissolve.


If Dr. Li did not confirm that the prescription he was prescribing then was a regular prescription for heat removal and detoxification, he might doubt that his medical skills had improved greatly in such a short time, he said, and he has reached the point of perfection.


But the truth was that Su Lao Er's legs had indeed recovered at an unimaginable speed.


And according to this speed of recovery, the legs will recover soon, until the wound heals, completely no different from a healthy person in general.


Since he did not know the reason, he did not dare to change his recipe carelessly, so he let Su Aobai continue eating like that.After a few days, his wounds started to scab over, so he let Su Aobai continue to eat like that, and the place where the blood flowed out became smaller and smaller.


Now he could let go of his crutches and walk a few steps slowly alone.


Er Niang was the happiest when he heard the news.


Not to mention that he was careful when boiling the medicine every day, he was afraid that the cooking time would be too long or too short, and the heat would be affected if the heat was too high or too low. he saw his father drinking it in one gulp.


To be honest, Chinese medicine is very bad, especially Chinese medicine soup with the addition of Huanglian.


But there happened to be a small housekeeper watching, so Su Aobai could only pinch his nose and drink a bowl full of medicinal soup in one gulp.


Not finished after drinking, the little girl was reluctant to throw out a single drop, after she poured a bowl of medicinal soup, the little girl would pour water into the bowl and shake it, some of them were hung on the wall of the bowl and settled in the bowl of Potions at the bottom melted in water.


The little girl held her bowl up high, and brought light brown water before her.


"Dad, you must obey."


Taking medicine obediently is a good father.


In the past two days, the little girl had grown a little bit of flesh, and her complexion appeared whiter, Su Aobai felt that the change of the girl seemed to be rather large, getting sweeter.


Of course, except for the princess who gave him medicine, but facing the hopeful expression on his face, he could only drink the second bowl with tears in his eyes.


Soon, news that Su Laoer's paralyzed leg might be able to recover spread across the village, and many people came to see his injured leg.


His foot injury was terrible before, and many people in the village saw him, his skin was black and purple, and his wounds were swollen and festering, but now, the injured leg had returned to its normal color, he said, and look like always.Serious foot injuries are types of skin trauma that don't hurt bones.


Everyone praised Dr Li for his outstanding medical skills, but Dr Li did not dare to accept such praise, if the same serious problems befall him in the future, but he can't cure it, it's going to be a big deal.


Doctor Li attributes all this to a miracle.


If this was not a miracle, how could a broken calf ever return to normal?


Everyone also recognized Dr Li's character, as he said that he did not heal Su Lao Er's leg injury, it could only mean that the healing of his leg injury was done alone.


Many people thought of the saying that circulated in the village earlier.


The old daoist who once appeared in front of the door of the house of Su, the big man that the Su family would produce, was actually not referring to the unborn child that was still inside Li's stomach back then, but rather one of the other sons of the Su family. .


Dr Li said that Su Laoer had the ability to never forget.If he was the great person that old Tao said in the future, then the magic that happened to him could naturally be explained.


After all, if you want to be a big hit, you should not have a big physical handicap, therefore, Su Laoer's leg injury is very miraculous, serious injuries that cannot be cured completely recover in just a few days.


It was true that he had been mediocre for over twenty years, but it was also because Su Kuishan and Li Shi were no good, which delayed him, so after the separation, it was also because of Su Kuishan and Li Shi, without the pressure from these two couples, he immediately woke up.


There were many late bloomers in this world, who could guarantee Su Laoer would not be the next one?


Because of this "miracle" in Su Aobai's body, more and more people felt that he should be a big person in the old Taoist mouth.


Rumors in the village interfered, and some movements immediately sounded from the old house.


Li was so angry that he became ill that day.


The old Taoist said at the beginning that he was his son, but the idiot who was the second child was also worthy of being an important person?
