【15】The air is alluring

Early the next morning.

Su Xueer went to the mountains to dig yam and accidentally found a detoxifying lilac.

I took it to a nearby pharmacy to sell, thinking it was just an ordinary detoxifying herb and could be exchanged for a copper coin.

After all, in the real world.

This kind of grass is everywhere in the mountains of her hometown.

But I never thought that it is so rare here and it is hard to find. It can be used as medicine to cure all kinds of poisons.

The shopkeeper bought her lilac for twenty taels.

He had twenty taels of silver in his arms, which he kept covered with his hands all the way.

I was afraid that if I let go, the twenty taels would disappear.

She was so excited all the way. Who said that God had specially picked her, a time-traveling girl, to take advantage of her?

Look, we also have the halo of time travel.

Twenty taels! The average family’s monthly expenses are less than two taels of silver.

Su Xueer became rich overnight. Not to mention other places, which family in Fengxian Village could come up with twenty taels of silver at once?

Isn't this sudden wealth too hasty?

She became the richest person in Fengxian Village.

Absolutely.

No more eating potatoes and radishes every day.

She chopped two ribs and prepared to stew them with the yam she dug from the mountains to nourish Chi Rui.

She also bought a fish. Fish is her favorite food, but since she came here, she hasn't tasted any fishy smell.

Today, she must have a good meal.

Carrying the ribs and fish, he hurried home humming a little tune.

Thinking of Chi Rui's expression when he knew he had twenty taels of silver, she was very excited.

Sudden!

A thin man with a sallow complexion and sunken eyes grabbed her.

With a silly smile on his face, he grabbed Su Xueer's arm and said, "Marry a wife... Marry a wife..."

The drool from the corner of his mouth dripped onto the back of Su Xueer's hand.

Su Xueer was so angry that she wanted to kill him again. She pushed Wang the shoemaker away and angrily cursed: "What are you doing, you bastard? You're drooling on my arm... It's disgusting..."

But Wang the shoemaker refused to let go of Su Xueer's arm, "Marry a wife... Marry a wife..."

It was Aunt Wang who came over and coaxed her son away, saying with disdain, "Son, stay away from this vixen. She's not a good person. I'll find you a good girl later."

He turned around and gave Su Xueer a fierce look, as if he wanted to torture Su Xueer to death.

She understands, she understands everything!

Looking at the ribs and fish in her hands, and finally, Su Xueer who was possessed by the Virgin Mary.

He quietly placed the fish in his hand at the door of shoemaker Wang's house.

He knocked on the door, then turned and left.

When Old Lady Wang opened the door and saw a big, fat fish hanging at her doorstep, she was naturally overjoyed.

"The Bodhisattva has appeared." He shouted, and suddenly remembered that this fish seemed to be the fish in the hands of the vixen.

He looked at the fish, then looked at Su Xueer's back as she walked away.

He snorted, picked up the fish and went back to the yard, muttering, "Don't think it's a big deal just to give me a fish."

When Su Xueer returned home, Chi Rui was basking in the sun in the yard.

He seldom sunbathed before.

Ever since that time, Su Xueer said that his skin was too white, so white that women like them couldn't survive.

I also told him that he should get more sun exposure to supplement calcium.

Although, he didn't know what calcium was.

But just because Su Xueer was jealous of his fair skin, he decided to get more sun exposure.

He couldn't understand why he cared about what that woman thought.

Must be crazy.

But there is nothing else to do right now, so let's just bask in the sun.

"Sanlang, look what I bought?" Su Xueer smiled and raised the two ribs in her hand to show Chi Rui.

Chi Rui opened his eyes and took a look, then closed them again.

It's like a god who doesn't care about the affairs of the world.

His face was as pale as snow, and he looked a bit sick. His powerful aura was so captivating that people dared not approach him.

Su Xueer was shocked by his powerful sense of oppression.

He turned and walked towards Qianyu who was boiling medicine.

"Qianyu, look, I bought some spareribs. I'll stew them with yam and spareribs to nourish Sanlang."

Qian Yu was not as indifferent as Chi Rui. He stared at her, pointed at the ribs in her hand and asked, "Where did you get the money to buy ribs? Did you do something wicked again?"

Su Xueer rolled her eyes. In his heart, she, Su Xueer, was labeled as a "vicious woman" and she would never be able to clear her name, right?

Su Xueer was too lazy to explain and started washing the ribs and cooking.

She knew the rules, so after making the meal, she served the first bowl to Chi Rui.

Chi Rui's bowl also had more meat and less soup, so she and Qianyu shared the rest, which was enough to fill them up.

There was still a little soup left, so he added some water and handed it to Qianyu: "Qianyu, feed this bowl of soup to that person from yesterday."

"Oh!" Qianyu was obedient for once. She took the bowl and went into the house to feed her baby.

After Chi Rui finished eating, Su Xueer walked over to him to help him collect the bowls and glanced towards the house.

"Sanlang, that man is so sick, do you want to...?"

As he spoke, he noticed some soup on Chi Rui's lips.

Chi Rui's lips are thin and lightly pursed, and there is a small black mole at the corner of his mouth, which makes his lips look both lustful and charming.

Seeing this, Su Xueer actually had the urge to take a bite.

At this moment, the air is alluring.

I wonder what it feels like to kiss lips like this?

Cough cough cough!!!

It’s so dirty.

She took out her handkerchief and held it close to Chi Rui's face, ready to help him wipe the oil stains from the corners of his mouth.

But before she could touch her, Chi Rui grabbed her wrist and looked at her with a slanted gaze. His deep, dark eyes seemed to be able to speak, and he was asking her, "What are you doing?"

Su Xueer looked at his handsome profile, where light and shadow intertwined, and a cluster of long, thick eyelashes slanted out horizontally, sparse and elegant, making it difficult to associate him with the bloody villain in the book.

"Well, I just want to help you wipe the soup off the corner of your mouth, Sanlang." Su Xueer lowered her eyes and pointed at the corner of his mouth and replied.

"I'll do it myself." Chi Rui took the handkerchief from her hand and gently wiped the corner of his mouth.

A faint fragrance came into his nostrils from the handkerchief, and he looked down at the handkerchief in his hand in disbelief.

He looked at Su Xueer beside him, who was looking at him with misty eyes.

"Sanlang? What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Chi Rui returned the handkerchief.

"Oh~" Su Xueer turned around and went to work at the earthen stove again.

After washing the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen, Qianyu finished feeding the baby soup and came out.

Su Xueer took the empty bowl from his hand and asked, “Qianyu, do you want to call a doctor for that person?”

She wanted to ask Chi Rui just now, but she was bewildered by Chi Rui's lips and didn't finish her question.
