As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Xinghe blushed, even the tip of her nose turning a lovely pink.
Jiang Linchuan really wanted to pull her into his arms, but he still had work and training that afternoon.
"Go home first, stay away from Li Xingzhou, I'll deal with him later."
“Okay.” Xu Xinghe couldn’t be happier; she just wanted to be protected. “Then I’ll go back first. After you get off work, you have to come and help me start the fire and boil water for my bath.”
"Understood." Jiang Linchuan's ears turned slightly red, and he quickened his pace.
Xu Xinghe watched him leave before skipping back to the courtyard.
Just thinking about how Li Xingzhou had lost face today made her burst out laughing. "Serves you right for being so smug!"
Xu Xinghe locked the door and immediately entered the space.
Let her see if there's any other medicine that can be used.
Every time Li Xingzhou comes to see her, she'll drug him, just to see if he'll dare to do it again!
Xu Xinghe prepared a batch of all the medicines that could be used.
The thought of being able to take care of Li Xingzhou in the future made her feel even better.
After so many episodes of madness, I don't believe Li Xingzhou can still be a good doctor.
There are almost no methods for detecting mental illness now, so even if someone has a mouth, they can't explain it clearly. It's like mud falling into your crotch—even if it's not shit, it's still shit.
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
However, it was just after training ended.
Jiang Linchuan couldn't wait to return to the courtyard.
As soon as I entered, I saw Xu Xinghe fast asleep in bed, her little mouth slightly open and her cheeks rosy.
"Wake up."
Xu Xinghe opened her eyes groggily, "What's wrong?"
"Get up, or you won't be able to sleep tonight." Jiang Linchuan handed over the prepared malted milk powder. "It's best to sleep well at night in Heilongjiang Province. Don't have insomnia, or you'll easily catch a cold."
Xu Xinghe sat up and sipped the drink, feeling even warmer.
Jiang Linchuan took out strips of cotton cloth, plugged the gaps in the window, and then secured them with tape so that the wind couldn't blow in.
He does this every November, but this year Xu Xinghe is here, so he has to prepare for winter earlier.
Xu Xinghe looked around curiously. She had always lived in Shanghai and had never seen anything like it. "Will it really be that cold? They even have to seal up the windows."
"Hmm." Jiang Linchuan rolled up his sleeves, and when he bent over, his training clothes outlined the sharp lines of his broad shoulders and narrow waist.
As the tape was applied, the muscles in his arms tightened, and the veins became faintly visible, revealing the strength he had gained through years of training.
Xu Xinghe licked the malted milk powder from her lips. This figure gives her a sense of security.
"The wind is stronger and the temperature is lower today than the past few days. It will definitely get colder tomorrow, so make sure you cover yourself well with a blanket tonight and don't catch a cold."
Xu Xinghe looked out the window. It was only a little past five o'clock, but the sky was already dark, and the wind was howling.
Just hearing about it is a bit creepy.
Suddenly remembering something, she sat up straight. "Jiang Linchuan, what's the date today?"
October 7th.
"October 7th..." Xu Xinghe murmured, her hand trembling so much that the enamel cup almost fell to the ground. She jumped up from the kang (a heated brick bed), her voice urgent, "Oh no! Frost is coming soon! This year's frost is a once-in-thirty-year event, the crops in the fields must be harvested immediately, otherwise there will be no harvest at all!"
Jiang Linchuan put down the tape, turned to look at her, his gaze deep, "How did you know?"
"I know it!" Xu Xinghe grabbed the strong arm anxiously. In her previous life, she had read about it in the newspaper and heard it repeatedly on the radio.
Just three days later, on October 10th, Heilongjiang Province suffered a once-in-thirty-year frost disaster, with the entire province affected and all crops in the fields failing.
Even the two neighboring northeastern provinces were affected, with production plummeting, causing panic in the region as many people worried about food shortages.
Although the government intervened, grain prices in Northeast China continued to soar, and many people who had no food reserves starved to death.
Xu Xinghe's eyes were extremely serious. "Jiang Linchuan, you must report this matter to higher authorities as soon as possible. There's still time to start harvesting. I'm not joking. I wouldn't be careless about something as important as the grain harvest. You must trust me!"
Jiang Linchuan frowned. He knew Xu Xinghe wasn't the type to joke about such things, but the news came too suddenly. "Xinghe, where did you get this information from? If I report it, I must explain my source."
Xu Xinghe bit her finger. "I have a friend who studies celestial phenomena abroad. She wrote to me about it."
She couldn't reveal her rebirth, and couldn't find any other reason, so she could only make up a friend.
"Jiang Linchuan, trust me!"
Jiang Linchuan held her hand, closed his eyes briefly, and said, "Yes, I believe you."
Since he chose Xu Xinghe, he will trust her.
"I will report it to the authorities. You wait for me at home."
Xu Xinghe knew he would keep his word, "Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
