Chapter 162 You Wake Up
"Yes." Song Wan'er had been guarding her benefactor in the west wing all night, but he didn't wake up. She was very anxious. When she heard Chunzhi ask about this, she immediately told her about the dangerous experience yesterday.
Song Wan'er said, "Sister, you don't know. Yesterday, after I asked Jinshu to jump into the lake and swim out for help, Luo Shang and I were kidnapped by those villains and taken up the mountain. I don't know how those people found out that I was a daughter of the Song family, and they wanted to exchange my brother and me for 200,000 taels of silver..."
When Song Wan'er was in Dongzhou, she didn't know how to go out. Instead, after coming to the capital, she often accompanied Chunzhi to buy her dowry.
Especially the first few times they went out, Song Wan'er was rich and wanted to spend money to buy jewelry for Chunzhi. She must have been targeted at that time.
The Song family is the richest family in Dongzhou. Those bad guys wanted to take 200,000 silver coins from Song Wan'er, but Song Anlan could really give it to them.
Song Wan'er said, "I was thinking of saving my own life, so I didn't resist and waited for my brother to come and rescue me. But after we reached the mountain, I ran into this chivalrous man. He saw that there were a lot of criminals and Luo Shang and I were tied up, so he immediately realized that there was something wrong. Seeing injustice, the chivalrous man drew his sword on the spot and saved Luo Shang and me from the hands of more than fifty criminals!"
She said, "My benefactor's martial arts skills are truly excellent, but it's a pity that he was ambushed by a villain at a critical moment and was seriously injured... Even though he was seriously injured, he didn't abandon Luo Shang and me and escape alone. He insisted on taking us with him..."
Song Wan'er's voice gradually lowered as she spoke, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't sneaked out of the city to play, I wouldn't have been caught by those villains, and my benefactor wouldn't have been seriously injured..."
"You sneaked out of the city, and I will punish you." Chunzhi said, "This chivalrous man suffered serious injuries while saving you. My brother and I will do our best to repay him. We will find the best doctors to treat him. If ordinary doctors are ineffective, I will have the prince call in the imperial physician."
"Sister..." Song Wan'er wanted to say something else.
Song Anlan said gently, "Alright, considering you were so frightened yesterday, I won't punish you for now. You've been guarding this west wing all night. When you wake up, there are servants to wait on you. You don't have to sit here idle. Go back and have something to eat with Chunzhi and get some sleep."
Chunzhi also meant this, and looked up at Song Wan'er, "Let's go."
"But..." Song Wan'er didn't want to leave yet.
Qingye advised: "Miss, you are already weak and should not overwork. If you fall ill, how can you repay your benefactor?"
Song Wan'er was about to speak when she heard Yuzhu say, "Sister Chunzhi was worried about you. She got up before dawn today and came to the Song residence without even having breakfast."
Song Wan'er heard this, "Then...then I will listen to my sister."
"Let's go." Chunzhi walked over and took Song Wan'er's hand, and the two walked out together.
Song Wan'er kept looking back as she walked. Suddenly, she saw the man on the couch move his fingers. She stopped immediately and said, "My benefactor...My benefactor seems to have woken up!"
Without waiting for anyone to speak, Song Wan'er immediately let go of Chunzhi's hand, walked quickly back to the bed, and called out, "Benefactor..."
Chunzhi, Song Anlan and others who were walking out also looked back.
The person on the couch's eyelashes trembled and he slowly opened his eyes.
"My benefactor, you're awake!" Song Wan'er squatted in front of the bed and asked repeatedly, "Are you thirsty? Are you hungry? Are you in pain?"
The young man on the couch looked at the completely unfamiliar environment in front of him and said in a hoarse voice: "Where is this..."
"This is my home." Song Wan'er was afraid that she hadn't explained it clearly enough, so she immediately added, "My brother and his men found us yesterday. We are now back in the capital. This is the Song residence, my home."
The young man looked at Song Wan'er for a moment before looking away and looking at Chunzhi, Song Anlan and others.
Song Anlan immediately stepped forward, bowed, and said, "I am Song Anlan. Thank you so much for saving my sister's life! Please just rest assured and recover here with me. If you want anything in return, please feel free to tell me. I will do my best to help you."
The young man said, "People who travel the world do good without expecting anything in return."
"You don't expect anything in return for your kindness, but I must repay you for saving me." Song Wan'er asked, "My benefactor, may I ask your name and address?"
The young man on the couch said in a hoarse voice, "My name is Jiang San."
Chunzhi's eyebrows jumped when she heard the name "Jiang San".
When she picked up Huo Zheng and brought him home in Linshui Town, she asked him what his name was, and he said his name was Huo Qi.
This is obviously a pseudonym.
This knight obviously did not want to reveal his real name.
Song Wan'er asked, "Rivers and mountains? Which river, which mountain?"
The young man said in a hoarse voice, "Jiang as in river water, three as in one, two, three."
"What a cool name..." Song Wan'er said, "Mr. Jiang San, you've been unconscious all night. You must be hungry and thirsty. I'll have someone get you some food."
As she spoke, she immediately ordered the maid to go to the kitchen to get some food, and personally poured a cup of cold tea and handed it over.
Jiang San wanted to sit up, but he was too seriously injured to do so.
Seeing this, Song Wan'er quickly said, "I'll feed you."
As she spoke, she immediately fed the tea to Jiang San's lips.
Jiang San glanced at Song Wan'er and did not move.
"Wan'er, let me do it." Song Anlan stepped forward and took the teacup from his sister's hand.
Song Wan'er said "Oh" and handed the teacup to her brother.
"My benefactor, have some tea." Song Anlan handed the teacup to Jiang San's mouth.
The latter then lowered his head and drank most of the cup of tea.
Seeing this, Song Wan'er immediately said, "I'll go get the doctor over and have him take a look at you, benefactor."
Before Song Anlan could say anything, Song Wan'er had already gone out like a gust of wind.
Song Anlan placed the teacup on the table beside him. He looked at Jiang San and asked gently, "How much do you remember about last night? Are there any special features of those villains? I hope you can tell me."
Chunzhi knew that Song Anlan was going to talk about serious matters, and it was not appropriate to have too many people in the room at this time, so she nodded to Jiang San and went out with Yuzhu, Qingye and others.
Jiang San and Song Anlan were the only two people left in the room, making it convenient for them to talk.
Chunzhi walked to the stone table and sat down, watching Song Wan'er call a doctor and bring in food herself, busy going back and forth.
After a while, Song Anlan was invited out of the room by her.
Seeing this, Yuzhu couldn't help but lean over to Chunzhi's ear and whisper, "Wan'er is so devoted to this benefactor."
Chunzhi smiled and said, "When I first arrived in Dongzhou, she treated me with such care."
Song Wan'er had been alone for too long, she was too lonely, and she had no chance to meet anyone else.
So every time I meet someone, I want to be open-hearted with them.
After hearing what Chunzhi said, Yuzhu stopped talking.
Just at this time, Song Anlan was also "invited" out by his sister. He walked over helplessly and sat down opposite Chunzhi.
Chunzhi asked him, "What did Jiang San say about what happened last night?"
