13 Chapter 13 Little Snow Rabbit
◎She might like you more◎
Strange news from around the world.
I'd only ever heard of mushrooms growing on bluestone slabs, a kitten teaching a tiger to climb a tree, or stones rolling uphill from a riverbank. This doctor, accommodating the patient's wishes, said he could simply not take the medicine.
This is the first time I've seen Elm and Willow.
"Will you really obey my wishes... and not dissuade me?" Yuliu felt that she had to first confirm whether she was hallucinating.
"Well, that's natural. After all, the young lady is my mistress now." Yun He nodded, recalling the surprised look on Yu Liu's face when she saw him finish a bowl of medicine in one gulp a few days ago. He smiled and said, "Besides, doesn't the young lady dislike taking medicine?"
"I don't like it very much." Yuliu nodded and said in a low voice a little embarrassedly.
"Actually, I was thinking before that this medicine only has a calming effect on the mind and replenishing energy. Drink it for peace of mind." Yun He smiled, "But you won't lose anything if you don't drink it."
Anyway, as long as she didn't have to drink bitter medicine, Yuliu was happy. For a moment, she even felt from the bottom of her heart that Yunhe was different from those doctors who forced people to buy her things.
At least Yunhe is an excellent doctor and a sincere person. He won't start long speeches like the Great Compassion Mantra at every turn, nor will he be arrogant and conceited and refuse to listen to other people's advice.
After Yuliu was convinced of this, she was overjoyed. Although she didn't show much on her face, her hands were sincere. She carefully pushed the medicine bowl aside and gestured with her eyes to invite Yunhe to sit across from her: "By the way, you came here to see me. Is there something you want to talk about? Don't stand there, sit down and talk slowly."
"No need." Yun He shook his head slightly, but did not sit down. "I just came here to report my itinerary. I have almost recovered from my rest these past few days, so I plan to go out and buy some medicinal herbs today."
Yuliu instinctively knew that the herbs Yunhe was talking about were all prepared for her. Her excitement suddenly turned into sporadic crackling sounds, and her smile froze for a moment: "Young Master Yun, can't you rest for a few more days?"
Implications:
The antidote for the Soul-Distracting Powder... there's no rush to get it in the next few days, right?
Hearing this, Yun He glanced at Yu Liu without saying a word, but a thousand words were gathered in that glance, meaning: "The poison is in you, how can you not be anxious?"
Yuliu chuckled twice, but seeing that Yunhe wasn't as forceful as other doctors, she hesitated for a moment, lowered her brows, and pretended to be hesitant and weak. She asked softly, "Well, if that's the case, can the medicine... not be so bitter?"
"Hmm?" Yun He raised his eyebrows slightly.
Yuliu secretly twisted her handkerchief and said shyly, "I don't like to suffer."
"Yes, I know." Yun He nodded in response, his hands behind his back, standing with his back to the light. He narrowed his eyes slightly, "But, young lady, have you forgotten something? Since you said you don't like it, I naturally won't force it."
“……?”
Yuliu didn't understand what this meant at first, but as soon as she looked at Yunhe, she understood it instantly.
Yuliu felt strange, and felt a hint of...indulgence from Yunhe?
She couldn't describe the feeling specifically, but she felt it was strange.
She sat at the table, Yunhe stood on the other side of the table, and Yuliu could only look up at each other from the bottom up.
Yuliu frowned slightly.
Yunhe doesn't look like he's joking, does he?
If the Anshen Decoction was a cold medicine and its efficacy was not satisfactory to Yunhe, then Yuliu could still understand why he turned a blind eye and let her go. However, this time Yunhe was clearly planning to get the medicine himself, so how could he promise that she wouldn't have to drink it if she didn't want to?
...Isn't this medicine prepared for her?
When Yuliu thought about it, she felt a little confused.
But Yunhe stayed in her house. Who else could this medicine be prepared for if not for her?
Although Yuliu felt relieved that she didn't have to take medicine, she still felt that Yunhe's remarks were somewhat strange. She frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so she simply put it aside for the time being.
Anyway, after hearing Yun He's words today, she has a shield even if he forces her to take medicine in the future!
Thinking of this, Yuliu's mood brightened again. She smiled and invited him, "Oh, in that case, I happen to be going out today too. The carriage is already waiting outside the door. Why don't you come with me?"
Yun He's eyes narrowed slightly: "Miss, are you leaving the house today too?"
"Yes." Yuliu stood up again, holding up the hem of her skirt with her bare hands, and walked to Yunhe. She turned her head and smiled brightly, "But first, I have to trouble you, sir, to do something for me."
"What's the matter?" Yun He's expression suddenly became serious when he heard that.
Yuliu felt that Yunhe looked like he was about to receive an imperial decree, so she tilted her head and chuckled, "It's not a difficult task, just catching a little rabbit."
Yuliu suddenly decided to take the snow rabbit with him.
The little snow rabbit looked like a palm-sized ball of pink jade, but it was lively and active. A few days ago, the veterinarian made a lot of noise when he came to the house to treat the rabbit. Yuliu liked quietness and didn't want to keep such a lively treasure with her. It was a good opportunity to send it away when she went out today.
However, Yuliu didn't want to catch it herself, and Yunhe happened to come to her, so it would be a waste to have an extra helper.
Whether it is hard work for yourself or for others, Yu Liu still knows the difference.
But who would have thought that as soon as Yunhe left, the little snow rabbit, which usually jumped around the yard and didn't want anyone to touch it, suddenly changed its behavior, raised its front legs in a very servile manner, and leaned towards Yunhe.
Yunhe bent down, took hold of the rabbit's two snow-white paws, and held them in his palms. With his other hand, he grabbed the rabbit's hips and scooped it up, holding it easily in his arms. He turned around and said to Yuliu, "I caught it."
"Yeah." Yuliu nodded expressionlessly.
Why is this rabbit so well-behaved today? Could it be that it is a female rabbit that is obsessed with looks?
Yuliu originally wanted to let Yunhe distinguish the male and female, but she felt that it was not elegant in broad daylight, so she gave up.
Yun He thought the rabbit was well-behaved, quiet and harmless. He held the snow rabbit in his arms and asked Yu Liu, "Do you want to hug it?"
"No, you hold her. She might like you more." Yuliu refused with a smile, "Let's go. Fangyue is still waiting for us at the door."
So Yunhe, a tall man, followed Yuliu with a plump little snow rabbit in his arms. "I heard that many women in the capital like to keep fluffy little things, but... Miss Yu doesn't seem to like it very much."
Yuliu walked ahead and said without looking back, "I don't have much patience, so I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it. It's already a blessing that I was able to save its life by chance."
Yuliu was being tactful, but she was ruthless and cautious in certain aspects, and it could be said that she treated people and pets equally.
It is hard to say whether Yuliu's words were meant to be heard by Yunhe.
Yunhe keenly perceived the hidden meaning of Yuliu's words, so he stroked the snow rabbit's fur a few times to soothe it, and walked through the hanging flower gate with Yuliu one after the other.
As they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the gate of the house.
Fang Yue had parked the carriage in front of the door early in the morning. Seeing that there was suddenly a man and a rabbit beside Yu Liu, although she was surprised, she didn't say much. She just asked Yu Liu with concern: "Miss, where do you want to go today?"
"The spring breeze blows over the railings." Yuliu said, then suddenly turned around and looked at Yunhe, asking, "Do you like this rabbit?"
Yuliu chose the house for the sake of peace and quiet. Since she decided to keep Yunhe, there was no need to keep Xuetu any longer as he had already completed the side quest.
However, even though this snow rabbit was naughty and active on weekdays, it was at least a generous snow rabbit who rewarded her with a deed to the land.
Originally, Yuliu was planning to give the rabbit to Chunfengfulan on the way, so that she wouldn't be getting the land deed for free. However, after she had a casual chat with Yunhe just now, she suddenly realized that the gift between pets depends on the fate between the owner and the pet.
"Why are you asking this suddenly?" Yun He paused slightly while caressing the rabbit.
Yunhe originally caught the rabbit on Yuliu's request. He couldn't say that he liked it, but he couldn't say that he disliked it either.
Yuliu looked at the docile Jade Rabbit curled up in a snow-white ball in Yunhe's arms, still feeling a little unbelievable, but she didn't show it on her face. She just chuckled and said, "It's just that I see that you two are quite compatible. If you like it, you can keep it in the yard and raise it. I won't give it away."
It just so happened that the weeds in the yard had not been trimmed yet, so there was no need to prepare any extra feed.
"Get along? If you must say I get along, it's better to say I get along with you. I caught the rabbit because of you, and I hugged the rabbit because of you."
As Yun He spoke, he seemed to realize something. His eyebrows slightly raised, and his gaze shifted from the well-behaved Snow Rabbit to Yu Liu. "Miss, you don't have to compromise yourself for me, or for the wishes of others."
"The girl should do what she originally thought."
