Su Huaiyue felt her scalp tingling when she thought of Wei Che's cold treatment of her before and the complicated and subtle relationship between them.

But when he turned around and thought about the people in the southwest, a determination surged in his heart, "Forget it, forget it, for the sake of medicinal materials, in order to save those people, I will fight!"

He took a deep breath, as if to muster up all his courage, and the breath echoed in his chest like the beating of a war drum.

Su Huaiyue slowly pushed open the door. With a creak, the door hinge turned, as if starting an unknown journey.

Wei Che had just finished packing and was coming out of the room. When they met, he asked calmly, "Have you packed your bags? I was stationed in the southwest for a while. The climate there is unpredictable, with a big temperature difference between morning and evening. Bring some warm clothes."

Su Huaiyue was a little surprised by Wei Che's instructions, and looked up and replied: "Well, I'm ready, thank you for your concern."

As soon as he said that, he realized his tone was too harsh, so he quickly added, "You too, your leg injury hasn't fully healed yet, so you need to take care of yourself."

Wei Che nodded slightly.

At this moment, the system sounded a prompt without any warning: [Congratulations to the host, favorability +1%]

Su Huaiyue widened her eyes, her mind full of question marks.

There is no standard for this dog system.

Just a 1% increase like that? Is that even possible???

But it's progress anyway.

She suppressed her excitement and went downstairs pretending nothing had happened.

Wei Che stood aside, looking at the rich micro-expressions on her face, as if thinking about something.

Soon, everything was ready, and the team bid farewell to Dongzhou in a mighty manner and strode towards the southwest.

Su Huaiyue sat in the carriage, looking at the winding road ahead, feeling mixed emotions.

The carriage moved slowly, and soon Wei Yunrou fell asleep holding the two little ones.

Madam Wei also dozed off.

Wei's second, third and fourth sisters-in-law were weaving and embroidering to pass the time.

In the afternoon, the sky, which was originally clear and bright, suddenly changed, and the blue sky like a gem was quickly covered with a thick lead-gray curtain.

Immediately afterwards, thick clouds gathered like surging waves, gathering rapidly with overwhelming force, and in an instant completely blocked the warm sunlight.

The cold wind was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, sweeping in with a whistling sound, carrying with it a biting dampness. Like cold and sharp needles, it penetrated everyone's clothes without any hindrance, and everyone couldn't help but shiver.

Wei Che was driving the carriage in front. Su Huaiyue felt a gust of cold wind blowing in while sitting in the carriage. Then she heard the creaking sound of the template in front of the carriage, as if telling of Wei Che's torment.

Su Huaiyue thought of something and lifted the curtain to see him.

Wei Che was pressing the old wound with his hand, his brows were twisted into a deep "chuan" shape, a layer of fine beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead, his face was slightly pale, and he looked a little haggard.

Su Huaiyue had been paying close attention to him along the way, and asked with concern, "Brother Wei, is your leg injury acting up again?"

Her voice was filled with anxiety and worry, and her eyes were filled with deep concern.

Wei Che nodded slightly, forcing a bitter smile from the corner of his mouth: "This weather is too humid, it's an old problem. It's not a big deal, just take it easy."

Su Huaiyue's heart moved, and she keenly grasped that this might be a great opportunity to get closer to Wei Che. She said without hesitation: "You go in and rest in the carriage, I will drive."

"No need, I'm fine."

The voices of the two people inadvertently woke up the people who were dozing in the carriage. Everyone felt the sudden cold and couldn't help but wrap their robes tightly.

Mrs. Wei opened the curtain and looked at Su Huaiyue, revealing a bit of sarcasm. "Hey, why are you so attentive today? Are you up to something again?"

Her voice was sharp and thin, filled with jealousy and undisguised provocation. Her eyes darted back and forth between Su Huaiyue and Wei Che, as if trying to dig out some unspeakable secret from their expressions and actions.

Su Huaiyue's heart tightened, and just as she was about to explain, Madam Wei slowly poked her head out of the carriage.

Her silver hair was neatly combed back and her face was kind and gentle.

"Nifeng, what are you talking about? Huaiyue saw that Che'er had a leg injury and was just trying to help. We're all family, so why should we be suspicious?"

Although Madam Wei's tone was gentle, it carried the unquestionable authority of an elder. She glanced at Second Sister-in-law Wei lightly, and that glance was like an invisible prohibition, which made Second Sister-in-law Wei silent immediately.

Mrs. Wei pursed her lips, her dissatisfaction surging like a raging tide in her chest. However, in front of Old Madam Wei, she dared not say anything more. She could only lower her voice and mutter softly, "Hmph, I think he has ulterior motives..."

Although the voice was small, it was like catkins drifting in the wind, gently and slowly entering Su Huaiyue's ears.

Su Huaiyue frowned slightly and sighed inwardly, but she didn't want to cause any trouble at this time, so she pretended not to hear and urged Wei Che to go inside and rest.

Wei Che couldn't persuade her and had to sit at the door for a while.

After Wei Che sat down, Su Huaiyue prepared to drive.

Just as she grasped the reins, she hesitated for a moment, quietly took some spiritual spring water from the space, carefully packed it in a small and exquisite leather bag, turned around and handed it into the carriage, and said softly: "This is my special water with some medicinal herbs added. It will be very beneficial for your leg injury. Drink it quickly."

Wei Che took the leather bag and gently opened the lid, and a sweet and pleasant scent wafted towards him.

He tilted his head back and took a sip, feeling a warm current like a lively stream flowing slowly down his throat and gently flowing to his limbs. His originally tense and painful legs seemed to be relieved a little, and the muscles that were as tight as bowstrings gradually relaxed.

"Miss Su, this water you gave me before... did you also add medicinal herbs to it?"

He looked at Su Huaiyue with some doubt and a probing look in his eyes.

Su Huaiyue was delighted, keenly aware that this was a perfect opportunity to improve her good impression of him. She quickly responded with a smile, "Yes, I saw you were working so hard before, so I secretly added some herbs to the water, thinking it would help relieve your leg pain."

She tilted her head slightly, with a gentle smile on her face, her eyes full of sincerity and concern, hoping that Wei Che could truly feel her good intentions.

Wei Che frowned slightly, his eyes full of worry, and asked softly: "Isn't this going to be very laborious to make?"

His eyes were like a clear spring, full of concern, as if he couldn't bear to see Su Huaiyue working so hard for him.

Su Huaiyue subconsciously wanted to blurt out "It's not a hassle", but when the words came to her lips, she remembered the task she was responsible for and quickly changed her words: "To be honest, this production process is very complicated."
