4 Chapter 4 Falling Cloud Crane
"I don't remember."
Yuliu was in a somewhat subtle mood.
Although she didn't understand what had just happened, but in that almost dissociated state, if she met someone with bad intentions, she would probably get a few ugly scars on her bare hand.
Fortunately, she was lucky today. The people she met were all dignified, polite, considerate and restrained in their words and deeds.
But Yuliu felt inexplicably and subtly unhappy.
She doesn't like others to see her vulnerable side.
What's more, this person was lying in her yard covered in wounds a few hours ago!
Just by going to the West Market, the situation between the two people turned upside down, like a mirror image in water.
Yuliu took a few steps back, quietly widening the distance between them, a polite smile on her face: "Are you awake? Lie down and rest for a while. The doctor will come over after he prepares the medicine."
Hearing this, the other party nodded thoughtfully, but asked in a confessional tone: "Miss, did you save me?"
"It can't be called saving." Yuliu lowered her head slightly. In the eyes of others, she was considered a girl with a thin skin and was embarrassed to admit it.
But Yuliu was obviously just pretending, acting half-heartedly and trying to curry favor with others!
Anyway, although she didn't save this person herself, the money for the doctor's treatment and medicine was all her hard-earned money.
Since she can't get rid of them now, she has to get her money back!
Yuliu didn't say anything, but the young man didn't know why, so he also remained silent.
Fortunately, Yuliu didn't hesitate for long. In the blink of an eye, she took on the host's demeanor and asked with concern, "Sir, is there anything else you would like to ask? Do you feel unwell anywhere?"
Originally, Yuliu thought this gentleman was chaste and wouldn't say much to outsiders. But before she could finish the second half of her sentence, "If you feel any discomfort, you can tell me in detail when the doctor comes," the other party actually took over the conversation sincerely and asked, "I just woke up. It was so sudden that I haven't had time to ask. How did you save me? What is the doctor's prescription? Why am I here?"
She spent money to save someone, so she naturally didn't understand the prescription and didn't read it carefully. As for the last question...
The elms and willows choked.
She wants to know too!
Why would such an extraordinary person like you be lying miserably at the doorstep of her house?!
Yuliu didn't have a very good first impression of this man.
But I have to say, after the blood on this man's face was washed clean, he looked really pleasing to the eye.
Yuliu stared at the other person's face for a long time and found that the other person's eyes were clear, even with a little curiosity. He let Yuliu look him up and down with a frank expression.
——I really didn’t mean to tease her.
Yuliu felt inexplicably depressed.
Once she has a rage that she can't vent, she can't help but want to vent it somewhere else.
So she grabbed the handkerchief with her slender fingertips and kneaded it secretly in her sleeve, but she smiled mischievously and threw the question back lightly:
"Sir, I will explain these questions to you in detail when the doctor arrives. However, since the doctor hasn't come yet, if you really want to know something first, I can answer one for you. However... I don't know what you are most curious about."
I thought he would hesitate for a moment, but he chuckled at Yuliu and asked without hesitation, "May I know your name, young lady?"
The voice is soft.
Like a feather used to tease a kitten, it floated lightly into Yuliu's ear, but unexpectedly soothed the subtle restlessness in her heart.
Yes.
Usually two people who meet for the first time will exchange names.
Yuliu found a suitable reason for the silence between the two of them just now.
"Yuliu, the yuliu in 'The yuliu shades the back eaves, the peach and plum trees line the front hall.'" Yuliu relaxed her handkerchief, a perfectly measured look of anticipation on her face as she softly asked, "May I know your name, sir?"
The other person's expression was confused for a moment.
He seemed quite surprised by Yuliu's question.
Seeing this, Yuliu felt a little strange. Hidden under her sleeve, she gently pinched the handkerchief, thinking that the other party was being suspicious. She smiled and explained, "Don't worry, sir. I'm not asking for a favor. It's just that this happened so suddenly, and I'm sure your family must be worried. If I could send a letter to let your father and mother know, it would put their minds at ease."
——It also makes me feel at ease.
Yuliu said silently in her heart.
She never felt that the sense of mystery that came from nowhere was equivalent to tempting her to explore.
If the unknown cannot become known, then she will only feel the uncertainty of the other party.
"I don't remember."
Yuliu: “……?”
She looked suspiciously at the other person's face again, and felt that the feeling of their eyes meeting was superimposed on the glance she had just had in a trance.
The picture has a familiar feeling of time and space interweaving.
It seemed as if she was the one who was testing things all the time, and even though the other party noticed it, he always indulged her and allowed her to explore.
Under normal circumstances, Yuliu would have thought that the other party was too disdainful to lie and make up a fake name, but... the person who said this was standing in front of him, looking at her calmly with clear eyes.
Yuliu was rarely hesitant. Was this person really sincere?
She was unusually unsure.
But Yu Liu has never been a person who drags his feet. When he has questions in his mind, he will try various methods to verify them.
She coughed lightly and asked directly, "Sir, what do you mean...?"
"What he meant was that he's lost his memory and can't remember." The long-absent system suddenly resurrected, its tone a bit twisted. "Congratulations to the host for completing the side quest—saving 'him'."
"Received reward: The fragrance is far-reaching and refreshing!"
"The query status is that the reward has been issued and takes effect immediately after issuance."
Save him?
who is he?
Could it be...
Yuliu was confused and her eyes fell on the face of the stranger in front of her.
Outside the carved wooden window, the willow branches drooped and swayed, and occasionally a few birds chirped and soared by, turning into a flowing shadow in the distance that swept across the other person's three-dimensional facial features.
"Yes, that's the young man in front of you," the system said, sounding somewhat sullen. "I was going to tell you this when you entered the room, but you triggered the world line fluctuations and blocked me out. You have no idea how worried I was! I was afraid you'd just throw him out. But... I see you two are having a pretty harmonious conversation. Good job, host, for making progress! Keep up the good work!"
World line fluctuations?
No wonder she felt that her act just now was not right. It made no sense. She just glanced at the charcoal brazier and was frightened as if stunned.
But, this man, did he really lose his memory?
He didn't lie to her.
Yuliu never expected that the other party was so frank with her from beginning to end, answering every question and telling her everything he knew. On the contrary, she was the one who had preconceived notions and made random suspicions based on her own petty thoughts.
"Let's call her Yunhe."
Yuliu had just sorted out his thoughts when he heard the words and looked up at Yunhe's slightly opened thin lips. His eyes slowly raised up and followed the other person's line of sight to look out the window against the light. He realized that the bird that had originally landed under the willow tree to peck at food had quietly flown away long ago. It was replaced by a white crane in the distance. Feng Xu flew out from the clouds and landed in a corner under the shade of the willow tree. It raised its long neck elegantly and chirped, like the ethereal and clear sound of nature.
The clear and bright voice washed away all the suppressed emotions of Yuliu. She smiled and said, "It's a name with a good meaning. It suits you very well."
"As long as the girl likes it." Yun He chuckled after hearing this, his eyes fell on the corners of Yuliu's lips that curled up, and he recalled the scene at the charcoal fire just now. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Before..."
"Girl! Miss Yu!"
The person coming was Yumei, striding down the path from afar. The black porcelain bowl on the bowl holder swayed as she ran. She was still chasing a white-haired old man from a distance, but she roared with great momentum: "You rude little girl! Put down the medicine bowl! You're running so fast, if even a drop spills, I'll hold you accountable!"
Fortunately, Yumei originally just wanted to see what was going on with Yuliu. Seeing that she was still standing in the room safe and sound, she didn't care about delivering the medicine. She stood obediently under the willow tree, letting Li Shengshou take away the medicine bowl while cursing.
The white crane was like a breeze in a painting when it landed among the mortal world. Suddenly it heard this worldly variety show, and immediately stopped its melodious singing. It spread its wings and flew away to the clouds, untainted by the dust.
Yuliu propped up the wooden window and leaned against the sill, blocking Yumei's inquiring gaze from the outer courtyard. "Yumei, why don't you go and help Fangyue take inventory? Li Shengshou is here, so you don't have to worry too much."
Yumei instinctively wanted to refute, but when she was about to open her mouth, she saw Li Shengshou walked into the room and glared at her fiercely, and she forced herself to swallow her words.
Yumei knew the temper of this doctor who had left the palace. He would avoid anything he could. Anyway, the injured patient seemed to be beyond saving, so he should not cause any trouble for the Fourth Prince.
So Yumei weighed the pros and cons, shrank her neck, and rarely chose to listen to Yuliu's words.
"Miss Yu? Please close the window. There are still injured people in your room." Li Sheng held a medicine bowl in his hand. Perhaps because he had served the Tian family before, he was very imposing. He stood in the side room with a bold look. He looked around, but he saw something wrong and something else that made him unhappy. "And you, don't you know how badly you are injured? And you are still standing here? Do you think one life is too long?"
Yun He, despite being injured, didn't take it seriously. He shook his head and replied calmly, "It's okay. There's enough charcoal in the room, so it's good to get some fresh air."
Upon hearing this, Yuliu simply lowered the bamboo pole that supported the window, but did not lock the window tightly, leaving a small natural gap for ventilation.
Seeing the patient's reckless desperation, Li Shengshou blew his nose, glared, and stroked his beard, his hair standing on end. He said angrily, "Young man, do you think you're all right just because you're awake? Don't take advantage of your youth and commit suicide! You look so handsome, but I didn't expect you to be such a fool who values your life over your dignity! I advise you to lie down on the bed quickly, drink this bowl of medicine, and get some sleep!"
"Is that so?" Yun He walked around the charcoal fire and sat back on the edge of the bed. He bowed slightly to Li Shengshou and said, "Doctor, this medicine smells like it was catalyzed by the addition of several powerful herbs, such as Yiling Moss, Huijingsha, and Wuxuanshen. So, I'm going to ask, when you wrote this prescription, were you worried that I wouldn't make it through the night?"
Yuliu sat on the soft couch, half supporting her head with one hand, and looked sideways at Yunhe's thin lips opening and closing. Although she didn't understand what medicine he was talking about, just by seeing the arrogance of Li Shengshou dissipate and turn into a look of shock in his eyes, she could tell that Yunhe's skill in smelling and identifying medicine was extraordinary.
Yu Liu quietly asked the system, "Didn't he lose his memory? He completely forgot his own name, but how come he still remembers the names of herbs like Yiling Moss and Scrophularia so clearly?"
System: "...He has amnesia, not dementia."
Yuliu didn't take the system's taunts to heart. After all, she was just looking for a topic to provoke the system. She simply took the opportunity to ask, "You just said the rewards had been distributed, but why haven't I received the 'Fragrant Faraway and Clear' reward for saving Yunhe?"
