Xiao Lingyu's body suddenly flew into the air, his head felt dizzy for a moment, and his hands holding the medicine bottle instinctively hooked around Su Xingyi's neck.
"Xingyi, put me down, I can walk on my own."
Su Xingyi actually slowed down his pace after hearing this. "Oh, I'm not tired. I'll be in the dining hall soon."
Only then did Xiao Lingyu feel the soreness in her arms and back. She had worked in the research institute all afternoon and had not drunk a sip of the spiritual spring water yet.
With a husband who loves her, she is willing to do any hard work.
Xiao Lingyu looked at his handsome, angular jawline, tilted his head back and took a sip...
Su Xingyi lowered his eyes and saw only her black hair. He couldn't help but pursed his lips. He knew that Xiaoyu liked to kiss him secretly and also liked his face very much.
Su Xingyi secretly felt lucky that he was born with a good appearance.
Once upon a time, when the beautiful girls in Guihua Village stared at his face, he thought that being good-looking was a burden and that they were superficial.
Now he would never think so. He wished that Xiao Lingyu would stare at him every day and not look at other men.
The servant waiting in the dining hall saw Su Xingyi carrying Xiao Lingyu in, and tactfully left the dining hall.
Su Xingyi carefully placed the person on the stool, took the medicine bottle from her hand and put it aside.
Xiao Lingyu looked at the eight dishes and one soup in front of him and couldn't help asking, "You haven't eaten yet?"
"Of course I'll have dinner with you." Su Xingyi smiled and sat down beside him. He poured a bowl of pheasant soup, scooped it up with a spoon, blew on it gently, and passed it to Xiao Lingyu's mouth. "Drink the pheasant soup first to warm your stomach."
Xiao Lingyu drank the pheasant soup and said, "Mmm, delicious. Where did this pheasant come from?"
"It was clearly sent from Zhuangzi at 5 p.m."
Xiao Lingyu drank a few more mouthfuls of the chicken soup Su Xingyi fed him. "What news did Mingming bring?"
"It's clear that the plan is progressing smoothly and that they've successfully tricked the spies outside the village. Tai Zhuo already knows that another group of people have returned from the south, and he'll take action tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
"I spent the whole afternoon brewing two hundred antidote pills. I'll have the trouble of distributing them after dinner."
Su Xingyi took the medicine bottle and opened it to take a look. It was filled with four black pills the size of soybeans. He thought that Xiaoyu must have spent a lot of energy to buy herbs of different sizes and shapes from the herbal medicine shop and turn them into pills of the same size in front of him.
"Xiao Yu, please teach me how to prepare the herbs, then I can help you next time."
The traditional method of preparing medicinal materials is very complicated, and it is impossible to make a hundred pills in an afternoon. She used the advanced pharmaceutical equipment in the research institute to make them.
If she hadn't wanted to improve the efficacy of the detoxification pills and made ten groups of them to compare their detoxification effects, she wouldn't have been so busy for the entire afternoon.
"Preparing medicinal materials is very complicated and not easy to learn."
"I'm willing to learn." He had to learn more about what she knew so that he could help her share the burden.
Seeing how serious he was, Xiao Lingyu said, "Okay, next time you'll be responsible for helping out. Do it a few more times, and you'll be able to see it. I remember you said this last time."
Su Xingyi smiled and said, "Yes, I'm smart. I'll get it after watching it a few more times."
"You're really not modest."
"Xiao Yu, this is called practice makes perfect. Just like that birthday cake, if you bake it a few times, you will get the hang of it and won't burn it."
He understands a lot of things.
"You're right."
After dinner, Su Xingyi sent Xiao Lingyu back to her room, and called Zhu Xu and Su Yun into the study with two bottles of antidote pills.
"Madam, the hot water is ready." Xiao Lingyu came to the tub and tested the water temperature. "Okay, undress now."
Mo Shu and the other three went forward to help Xiao Lingyu bathe.
Xiao Lingyu felt very strange. She was clearly from the future, so logically she would not be used to servants serving her so closely.
She didn't feel awkward when Mo Shu and the others served her. In fact, this body really enjoyed being served.
Half an hour later, Xiao Lingyu seemed to have been reborn. The fatigue in his body disappeared. Now he sat in front of the dressing table, feeling more relaxed than ever before.
They served very well tonight, and Xiao Lingyu wanted to reward them.
Xiao Lingyu now had a lot of silver but few jewelry, and the four maids were also short of silver, so he rewarded each of them with five taels of silver.
"No need to wring your hair out, you all go down and rest."
"Yes, ma'am."
The four maids left happily with the silver. It had been three months since they were sold again and they were penniless. They had only been at the Su Mansion for a few days when they received a reward of five taels of silver. They felt that following the new master was a promising future and they would serve their master wholeheartedly in the future.
Xiao Lingyu dried her hair in the villa, simply tied her hair up, slipped out of the space, left the door open for Su Xingyi, and went into the bedroom to rest.
When Su Xingyi came back, he first went to see the sleeping Xiao Lingyu, and then went to the bathroom to wash up.
A quarter of an hour later, Su Xingyi, wearing clean underwear, lay down neatly in the empty seat to the left of Xiao Lingyu.
Su Xingyi closed his eyes and prepared to sleep, but suddenly opened them again, turned his head to look at the sleeping Xiao Lingyu, his gaze fixed on her round chin.
A moment later, Su Xingyi placed a light kiss here.
Su Xingyi pursed his lips and muttered: This time it's still not a secret kiss, it's still a reciprocity, you kissed me first tonight.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Xiao Lingyu suddenly opened his eyes, startling Su Xingyi.
"Oh, I'll go to bed right away."
Su Xingyi quickly took the quilt to cover his face.
Why do I always get caught kissing secretly?
She was obviously asleep!
Xiao Lingyu lifted his quilt, revealing his face, pinched his chin, and put his face close to his.
Su Xingyi looked at the face so close to him, especially the pink lips. His heart warmed up and he took the initiative to cover her lips, and ended up kissing her hair.
Xiao Lingyu was too sleepy to open her eyes and fell asleep on his chest. Before falling asleep, she whispered, "Tonight... hold me... and sleep."
"Xiao Yu..."
Su Xingyi called out a few times, and all he got in response was the sound of even breathing.
Su Xingyi was very obedient. He hugged Xiao Lingyu into his arms, rested his chin on her round shoulder, and whispered in her ear, "After Tai Zhuo's matter is finished, can we stay in Wuling County for a few more days?"
The sound of even breathing continued to echo in his response. Su Xingyi whispered again, "I just want to hold you in my arms and fall asleep every night. Now that we're back in Guihua Village, such opportunities are too rare."
Seeing that she was silent, Su Xingyi placed a kiss on her neck before closing his eyes and falling asleep...
The second day.
"Sir, five more groups of people have returned from Zhuangzi. Now we can confirm that the perfumer is in Wuling County. Shall we pay him a visit today?"
Tai Zhuo pondered for a moment, "Okay, pack up and get ready to go."
Seeing the two of them rushing to the East City Gate, Yan Wei hurried back to the Su Mansion.
