Ying Xixi opened her mouth to continue speaking, but her throat was dry and even a little sore.
She had no choice but to point to her throat and silently say the word "water".
Xiao Sui frowned, stood up, brought a glass of water and handed it to Ying Xixi.
It can be seen that Xiao Sui's patience is limited.
Ying Xixi quickly took the cup of water and took a sip, and her dry throat finally felt better.
She drank the water in one gulp before speaking.
"Thank you for saving my life, sir. My name is Ying Xixi, and I am from the capital."
"Why are people from the capital here? And lying in the mass grave?"
Xiao Sui crossed his arms and looked at Ying Xixi in confusion.
Ying Xixi smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I am the legitimate daughter of my family, and my concubine's sister is very jealous of me. She teamed up with human traffickers to bring me here and wanted to sell me off.
The human trafficker didn't give me any food for several days, and I was so hungry that I almost fainted.
The traffickers thought I was dead and threw me into a mass grave.
Before I fainted completely, I saw the young master coming towards me, so I held on for my last breath and asked him for help.
Sir, I am grateful to you for saving me."
Xiao Sui nodded when he heard this, "I see, you are quite pitiful too.
So what do you want to do in the future?"
Ying Xixi hesitated for a moment, then raised her pitiful eyes and looked at Xiao Sui.
“I have no money on me right now, and even if I had money, it would be difficult for me to return to the capital.
And even if I go back, my reputation will probably have been completely ruined by that vicious half-sister.
I don't have the ability to take revenge now. Could you please take me in temporarily?
Once I recover and have some money, I will leave.
Don't worry, sir. I will repay you for saving my life.
I won't live here for nothing. I can clean your house for you.
When I have money later, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"
Now that the male protagonist is in front of us, let’s deal with him first.
This male protagonist gave her a different feeling.
She always felt that this male protagonist was not so easy to deal with.
Xiao Sui frowned and looked at Ying Xixi's beautiful face, feeling a little hesitant.
“It doesn’t matter whether I’m rewarded or not.
It's not impossible for you to stay, but if you and I were to live alone together, it would be bad for your reputation if the villagers saw us."
Ying Xixi smiled sadly, "Sir, at this point, I no longer care about my reputation.
My life is almost gone, so I don’t care about my reputation anymore.”
Xiao Sui looked at her pitiful appearance and sighed.
"Okay, then, if the villagers ask, I will say that you are a maid I bought specifically to wash clothes, cook and serve me, how about that?
Didn’t you just say you could do these things to repay me? "
Ying Xixi nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Master."
"Okay, my name is Xiao Sui, you don't have to call me Young Master all the time, just call me by my name.
This is not the capital, there is no need to follow all those red tape, just do as you please.
You've been unconscious for two days, so you must be hungry. I just prepared some food, so if you can get up, please get up and eat."
Xiao Sui said this and prepared to stand up and go out first.
Ying Xixi glanced down at herself, still wearing the same clothes she had worn two days ago while lying on the bones of a dead person in a mass grave. She could still faintly smell the stench coming from herself...
"Mr. Xiao, can I take a shower first? If I go to eat with you like this, you might not be able to eat."
Ying Xixi felt a little embarrassed as she spoke.
Xiao Sui glanced at Ying Xixi, who had disheveled hair and dirty clothes but still amazed him.
"If you don't faint if you take a shower on an empty stomach, of course you can. I'll get some hot water. Wait a minute."
"Okay, thank you, Master Xiao."
Xiao Sui nodded, not caring about what Ying Xixi called him.
Ying Xixi threw back the quilt and got out of bed. She felt her legs were as soft as noodles and her vision was a little dizzy.
This won’t do. I’ll definitely faint while taking a shower.
After thinking about it, Ying Xixi took out a pack of wet wipes from the space to wipe her hands, then took out half a piece of compressed biscuits and milk and started to eat them greedily.
The smell of these two things is not that strong, so let’s fill our stomachs first.
Ying Xixi finished her meal in a flash and wiped her mouth. Xiao Sui had already come in carrying a large wooden barrel.
Then Xiao Sui went out and brought two buckets of hot water and poured them into the bathtub.
After repeating this two or three times, the bathtub was full of water.
"Okay, as for a change of clothes, I don't have any women's clothes here, so I'll have to ask you to wear mine first. Mine are new and I haven't worn them yet."
Xiao then walked to the wardrobe, took out a black shorts and matching pants and handed them to Ying Xixi.
Ying Xixi took it and said, "Thank you, Master Xiao."
"Then you wash up, I'll go out first."
Xiao Sui left after saying this and closed the door behind him.
Ying Xixi took off her clothes and soaked in the water, feeling that all the pores in her body were opened.
While taking a shower, Ying Xixi asked the system in her heart.
"System, is there any information about Xiao Sui?"
[Sorry host, no, because the male protagonist Xiao Sui did not appear in the original plot at all, and the system did not include his information.
His information is blank, and the host needs to understand and fill it in. 】
"All right."
Ying Xixi recalled Xiao Sui's appearance, with his black hair tied up high and wearing a black shorts.
He has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and the muscles on his arms cannot be covered by clothes, and they are obviously bulging.
Xiao Sui has a wheat-colored complexion and a bit of a beard on his face. He looks a bit like a rough bachelor in his thirties from the mountains.
Now she only knew Xiao Sui's name and nothing else.
Ying Xixi was thinking about these things randomly, her mind a little confused.
The water around her was so warm that she almost fell asleep again.
[Host! Wake up!]
The system's voice sounded in her mind at the right time, and Ying Xixi woke up.
She quickened her pace, washed her hair, and put on Xiao Sui's clothes.
Her height was only up to Xiao Sui's chest, and when she put on his clothes she looked like a child wearing adult clothes.
The pants just drag on the ground, and the shorts can be worn as long skirts.
There was no other way, Ying Xixi tried hard to roll up her sleeves and trouser legs.
He crumpled up the clothes he had taken off into a ball and placed them on the bed.
She planned to wash her clothes after dinner, otherwise she would have nothing to wear.
Ying Xixi pushed open the door and saw the scene outside.
Outside the house is a small fenced courtyard.
There was a small wooden table in the courtyard, with several dishes on it.
But there was no sign of Xiao Sui.
Ying Xixi walked out of the house and just happened to see Xiao Sui bringing out two plates of food from a room in the corner.
It was just sunset at this time, and Ying Xixi clearly saw the look of surprise in Xiao Sui's eyes.
