Chapter 481: Love comes from the heart
Chapter 481: Love comes from the heart
Chunniang lowered her head with a look of aggrievedness, and before Su Lanyin could continue speaking, tears fell from her eyes.
An auntie nearby tried to smooth things over: "Hey, isn't it okay? Why make such a fuss?"
"Yes, yes. It's the first time for Chunniang too. It's normal that she doesn't understand."
"My lady, we are indeed grateful to you for saving us, but you can't bully our Chun Niang because of this, right?"
……
I don’t know who brought it up, but Su Lanyin was directly accused of bullying Chunniang?
She said helplessly: "When did I bully her? I just wanted to teach her..."
Chunniang also hurriedly said: "Yes, everyone, Miss Su is teaching me, how can it be bullying, please stop talking, stop talking."
Although she explained, her tone was tearful, which made people feel that she was wronged.
Su Lanyin didn't understand, and looked at her seriously and asked, "Are you feeling wronged?"
Chun Niang was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head: "No, no!"
"Then why are you crying?"
"I...I just feel a little guilty..."
"If you feel guilty, apologize sincerely."
"Yes, I'm sorry..."
"Not to me, but to grandma!"
The people around originally wanted to accuse Su Lanyin of bullying, but they were speechless after hearing the last sentence.
Someone suddenly whispered, "Chun Niang made the wrong medicine, causing grandma to almost die. If she makes the wrong medicine for us next time..."
Before he finished speaking, the voices behind him became smaller and smaller.
The group of people immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. They didn't want to die, so they started blaming Chunniang again.
"Chun Niang, I think you should stop learning medical skills, or you might actually kill someone."
"How can you be so careless that you can even put the medicine in the wrong place?"
"If grandma dies, but you killed her, you won't want to kill us too, right?"
……
Seeing them blaming each other, Su Lanyin's heart suddenly sank.
She couldn't help but think of what happened to her in Qiu County before, and she also understood that people's hearts are complicated, and that pitiful people are not all pitiful.
But now they are in a difficult situation, yet they still blame each other. No wonder the people of a town would be bullied like this by a landowner.
She angrily threw the bowl next to her to the ground.
"Shut up, everyone!"
Everyone was silent and looked at her in surprise.
Su Lanyin looked at everyone and said, "I think you know better than me what the situation is now. If you are not willing to tolerate and unite with each other at this time, then even if you don't die now, you will not be able to get back the land that belongs to you in the future!"
Hearing him say this, everyone lowered their heads, looking reflective.
A weak voice sounded again. It was the person who just said that Chunniang had made the wrong medicine.
"Sister Su, I'm sorry."
Su Lanyin looked over and saw a little girl about thirteen or fourteen years old, about her own age. She was skinny, unkempt, and had a knife wound on her face.
She sat on the ground, hugged her knees and looked up.
He was dressed in gray, but had two big, bright and clear eyes.
"We all gave up a long time ago, so we have been very frustrated and said those words just now. Please don't blame us."
They had gone through so much suffering and were severely injured, and almost died in Wutong Town.
Although they were rescued to the mountain by the three brothers of the Fang family, they knew that they could not hold on for long and would die sooner or later.
Even if Su Lanyin used her medical skills to save them temporarily, she couldn't save them forever.
When people lose hope in life and feel that the road ahead is dark, they will resist everything.
They just accused each other, which was just a sign of giving up on themselves and throwing the jar into the air.
Because we have been tired of saying words of comfort and encouragement to each other before, but isn't the result still unsatisfactory?
Su Lanyin sighed and barely understood their feelings.
But right now, the most important thing is not the conflicts or resentments between them, but the patients who are still in critical condition.
She said, "I understand. You still need to take good care of your health. No matter what, only by living can there be hope."
Everyone lowered their heads and didn't say anything, but Su Lanyin could feel that they were all very depressed.
Even if you barely survive, there is no hope.
This is the most terrifying thing in life.
It's dark and there's no way out even if you're alive.
Suddenly, one person started crying, and then everyone else started crying too.
"Our house was burned down by Zhao Zide, and my wife was trapped inside and burned to death..."
"My son died of starvation. He was only a year old, but he could only eat wild grass and tree bark with me... My son..."
"My family worked hard to farm the land for a year, and my father was so tired that he was bedridden. But when it was time to harvest the land, the food they gave was not enough for a month's food. My father was so angry that he almost died when he heard about it..."
"Without land and food, how can we survive? When winter comes, I'm afraid we won't even have firewood. Even if we don't starve to death, we will freeze to death."
"Yes, Zhao Zide has occupied all the hilltops within a hundred miles. We don't even have the chance to go into the mountains to hunt or chop wood. It's clear that he doesn't leave us any chance to survive."
……
Listening to everyone venting all their grievances, the negative energy seemed to be dissipating bit by bit.
As they talked, they hugged each other and cried, and some even began to comfort each other.
Everyone has suppressed hatred in their hearts, and they unconsciously turn this hatred into violence, which is released to innocent people around them from time to time.
Today, because of Chunniang's mistake, they were freed and spoke out their inner thoughts.
Looking at the suffering people in the yard, Fang Hengzhi, who walked to the door, was stunned for a moment, then immediately rushed in.
"What's going on? I was going to go out for a while, why are you crying?"
Su Lanyin walked over and patted his shoulder, whispering, "Boss, just let them cry. It will be fine if they vent their emotions."
"what?"
"What about the letter?"
"Someone has been sent to deliver it."
"Is it reliable?"
"My second brother is going there. He is definitely reliable. He is the smartest one among us."
Su Lanyin frowned: "The smarter they are, the less reliable they are."
"What do you mean?"
"Aren't you afraid that he'll run away with the silver and never come back?"
"This... shouldn't be possible, right?"
"Not necessarily."
Fang Hengzhi thought about it, and then said firmly: "My second brother is definitely not that kind of person, don't worry, he won't run away!"
Su Lanyin thought of the skinny second in command, who rolled his eyes and looked shrewd and calculating.
It would be a shame to not take the money and run away with his clever and cunning appearance.
You can say that she judges people by their appearance, after all, the face reflects the heart. If a person always looks down at others, it is probably because he is guilty or hiding something, and over time, his eyes will naturally move closer subconsciously.
Or if a person always gets angry and frowns, wrinkles will appear on his brow, which can also be considered an aspect of the mind.
In short, she didn't trust this second-in-command.
