Wanruo turned around and saw that it was Lin Han.
He was still wearing the same blouse as last time, his hair tied up with a cloth, and holding a few books in his hands. His silent and handsome face lit up the moment he saw her, and he ran over quickly: "What a coincidence, how come Miss Xu is here?"
Wan Ruo pursed her lips and smiled: "Unfortunately, I came here specifically to see you."
Lin Han was stunned for a moment, and stammered nervously: "Yes, is that so?"
Then he hurriedly remembered and asked, "I heard that the girl was sick a few days ago. Is she better now?"
Wanruo nodded and said, "I'm feeling much better now. Thank you for the medicine, Xiaozi. I came here the other day to thank you in person."
Lin Han's face flushed red, and he quickly said, "This is nothing, just a packet of medicine. I just heard that the girl caught a cold, so I bought some cold medicine. I don't know if it's the right medicine for her condition."
Wanruo smiled and said, "I got better after taking the medicine. How can it be the wrong medicine?"
Lin Han was stunned by the smile and was stunned for a moment before he immediately lowered his eyes and didn't dare to look at her: "Well, that's good."
She felt distressed at the same time. She was really living under someone else's roof in her family's house, and even the doctor looked down on her.
Lin Han suddenly remembered something and hurriedly took out a medicine bag from his sleeve: "Oh, this medicine bag is from the peach forest that day when I picked it up. It must be something the girl dropped."
Wan Ruo was surprised and said, "It seems you found it. I thought it was lost and I looked for it for several days."
Lin Han scratched his head, feeling a little guilty: "If I had known this thing was so important to you, I would have sent it to you earlier."
In fact, when I met the seventh daughter of the Xie family at the gate of the mansion last time, I could have asked her to help bring it to her.
But Lin Han also had selfish motives. He wanted to see her again. Maybe if she didn't come to see him, he could still have a thought about her.
Wanruo smiled and said, "This is a medicine bag for calming the nerves. I made it myself. It's fate that you picked it up. You helped me in my time of need and gave me medicine when I was seriously ill. As a thank you, I will give this medicine bag to you."
Lin Han was stunned for a moment, then happily accepted the medicine sachet: "I was wondering why I slept so well these past few days."
"Um?"
Lin Han realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly tried to make amends: "I just put it on the bedside table. I didn't take it with me."
Wanruo couldn't help but cover her lips and laugh. Lin Han blushed. Why was he so stupid? What kind of words were they?
"Your scientific research is about to begin. If this medicine bag can help you sleep peacefully, it will be worth it. If you like it, I will make you another medicine bag to refresh your mind. Carry it with you, and you will be more alert when studying."
Lin Han was overjoyed: "Really? Thank you, young lady!"
Wanruo looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting late. I'll go back first."
Lin Han was reluctant to let her go and wanted to keep her but couldn't find the words to say. He was anxious and worried. When he saw her turning around and about to leave, he hurriedly called out, "Girl!"
Wanruo stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Han pulled out a purse from his sleeve and handed it to her carefully. "Miss, you have just recovered from a serious illness, so you shouldn't eat too little. It's not easy for you to survive in the Xie Mansion. This money can be used to pay the cook in the mansion, and it can also make you a few nourishing meals. It's important to take care of your health."
Wanruo was stunned for a moment, looking at the old purse, before she realized that he thought she was poor.
Wanruo shook her head. "No need. I have a good relationship with the cooks in the mansion, and they often cook for me. You are alone in a foreign country, and you have more space to spend money. You should keep it for yourself."
"I still have some." Lin Han stuffed the purse into her hand without caring, then turned around and left in a hurry.
Wanruo stood there in a daze, looking at the purse that was stuffed into her palm. The purse was quite old, and there were probably only two taels of silver in it, but when Wanruo held it in her hand, it felt heavy.
-
When Wanruo returned to Xie's house, it was almost dusk.
When she returned to Qiushui Courtyard, Ding Dong had already been waiting at the door. When he saw her, he hurried over to greet her: "Miss, you're finally back!"
"Well, what's wrong?" Wanruo said in a light tone.
Ding Dong looked inside the house with an uneasy look.
Wanruo pushed the door open and went in. It was a little dark inside. It was dusk, but no lights were on. The moment the door was opened, dim light slanted in and sprinkled on the people in the room.
Xie Xianyu sat in the armchair, looked up at her, and said in a neither light nor heavy voice: "Are you back?"
