Perhaps they had never seen such an immortal figure before. After Chen Tian left, some people in the field could no longer contain their excitement and walked over to Bai Su, asking him, "Mr. Bai, who was that person just now?"
Bai Su turned around upon hearing this, hiding the gloom in his eyes. Seeing that after the man asked this question, everyone around him seemed to be peeking in, wanting to know the answer, he smiled and said, "It's a relative from home, visiting."
After saying this, Bai Su lowered his head and continued tending to the rice seedlings in the field. He didn't even look up, his concentration making it difficult for the questioner to ask any further questions.
On the other side, after leaving Bai Su, Chen Tian hurried back home.
In order to make his lover less tired, he decided to do more things. At least he should finish all the housework and prepare dinner before his lover came back.
Thinking of this, Chen Tian first went to the yard and chopped all the firewood in the yard, and then went to the river with an empty bucket to fetch water.
These tasks are much more labor-intensive than cleaning the room and feeding chickens and ducks. In the past, considering that Bai Su had always asked him to rest and recuperate, he would not do them.
But today, Chen Tian was so stimulated by lunch that he felt uncomfortable if he didn't do anything. So even though his wound hurt a little while chopping wood, he ignored it.
We turned around and quickly arrived at the stream. Apart from a river in the distance near Lijia Village, the place most villagers go to is actually a nearby shallow stream.
The water there is clear and there are fish swimming around. Village women and children often go there to wash clothes and play.
Chen Tian deliberately chose an area that was farther away and less populated.
After fetching water, he rolled up his sleeves and walked barefoot into the stream, intending to catch a few fish for his lover as a snack.
The stream water in summer was not freezing, so it was not difficult for Chen Tian to catch fish, but his clothes did get a little wet after all.
The fish in the stream were not big. Chen Tian caught three or four. When he thought there were enough, he took the water and fish back.
He walked around the kitchen and found the food at home. He ignored the coarse grains and used the refined rice, vegetables, and the leftover pickled meat.
He cooked three servings of rice, stir-fried some vegetables with the pickled meat, and then started to simmer the fish soup over low heat.
Chen Tian was busy running around. After a while, the water stains on his clothes were dried by the heat from the kitchen. He looked at the fish soup in the pot and looked forward to seeing Bai Su's appearance when he returned.
In fact, the fish we caught would taste better if braised, but I don’t have any seasonings at home, so it would be better to make fish soup, which is more convenient and tastes better.
So when Bai Su came back, as soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, he smelled bursts of fragrance coming from the house.
It was the smell of fish soup. It smelled delicious from afar, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Bai Su opened the gate to the courtyard and walked closer. Looking at the person busy in front of the stove, a rare warmth rose in his heart.
When you go home, there is someone waiting for you at home, cooking for you, which is really an extremely happy experience.
Chen Tian noticed Bai Su coming back, turned around and said to him with a smile, "Come in, change your clothes and get some rest. When I went to fetch water today, I saw some fish in the stream, so I caught a few. You're in for a treat tonight."
"What? You're going to fetch water and catch fish? Didn't I tell you to take good care of your injuries and stop thinking about doing these things?"
As expected, he heard his lover scolding him, but Chen Tian didn't take it to heart at all. He smiled at Bai Su and continued to work.
Bai Su sighed, went back to his room helplessly to change his clothes, and then came to help Chen Tian.
Soon, the food was served.
Chen Tian's cooking skills were very good. Even though he wasn't good at it at first, he eventually became a master of cooking to satisfy his partner. He also knew Bai Su's taste very well, so today's meal was made according to his lover's preferences.
The three of them ate together at the dining table. After taking a few bites, Bai's mother began to praise Chen Tian's cooking skills. Seeing this, Bai Su picked up his chopsticks with great anticipation.
After taking a bite of the stir-fried vegetables and pickled meat, the young man paused. The vegetables were crisp, the pickled meat was salty and fragrant, and the seasoning was far superior to his own. The rice was perfectly soft and firm, and the fish soup was thicker and more flavorful than his own. They were clearly the same seasoning, but how could the taste be so different in this person's hands?
I didn’t expect that the beauty is not only beautiful, but also so virtuous and has such good cooking skills.
She is truly beautiful and intelligent, I really have found a treasure!
Bai Su admired in his heart and looked at Chen Tian with joy in his eyes.
"Zichen, your cooking skills are really good!"
Seeing that Bai Su liked it, Chen Tian also showed a big smile on his face.
We had a very enjoyable dinner together, just like a family.
Bai Su felt that his home had not been this lively for a long time, and all of this was brought to him by the person next to him.
Later, after washing up, the two returned to their room to rest.
Lying on the bed, the two of them shared the same bed for the second time. Originally, this was a great benefit for Chen Tian, but because of what happened today, Chen Tian lost all thoughts and was only thinking about how to make his lover live a good life.
After much thought, Chen Tian decided to go hunting in the mountains after his wounds healed in a couple of days, and then use the large prey to exchange for more silver. He just didn't know if there were tigers or black bears in the mountains, as those prey would be the most valuable.
The more he thought about it, the more anxious he felt. Chen Tian felt uneasy and couldn't sleep. He wanted to turn over. But as soon as he turned over, he pressed on the wound and subconsciously let out a hiss of pain.
Thinking that he must not disturb Bai Su, Chen Tian immediately shut his mouth, but the person next to him who had not fallen asleep yet still heard it.
"Zichen, what's wrong? Does the wound hurt?"
Bai Su sat up suddenly and asked with some concern.
"I'm fine. I just rolled over and accidentally pressed on it."
Chen Tian explained softly, but Bai Su didn't believe him. The wound had almost healed in the past two days, and turning over occasionally shouldn't cause him to cry out in pain. The gasping sound just now must have been from the intense pain.
Bai Su was worried about Chen Tian's health. He immediately got up from the bed, lit the oil lamp in the room and placed it on the bedside. Then, without waiting for Chen Tian's reaction, he lifted the quilt.
Who knew that when he turned over the quilt, he saw that a small area of Chen Tian's inner clothes was soaked with blood.
"What's going on!"
Bai Su's tone was unusually anxious. He quickly pulled open his clothes and saw that the deepest wound on Chen Tian's abdomen had indeed split open.
He was extremely anxious and looked at Chen Tian with worry in his eyes. He hurried to get the ointment and replacement white cloth from home.
When the wound was opened, Chen Tian groaned in pain again, earning a glare from Bai Su.
It's easy to imagine that his partner must have guessed that the wound was accidentally opened while he was working today.
Chen Tian actually didn't think it was that serious at all, so he simply dealt with it when he got back, thinking it would heal in a day or two, but he didn't expect it to be discovered anyway.
He originally wanted to make a few excuses, but seeing Bai Su's terribly gloomy face, Chen Tian touched his nose guiltily and didn't dare to say anything extra for a while.
He didn't know that Bai Su, who was applying medicine, was really angry and distressed.
Bai Su himself had been injured before. When he first met Chen Tian, he saw the serious injuries on his body and felt strangely uncomfortable.
But now, perhaps because of the time they have been together, this person has slowly entered his heart, and Bai Su has also realized how important this person is to him.
When he saw the wound on Chen Tian's body split open because of his carelessness, he felt an indescribable anger and deep heartache in his heart.
Chen Tian just discovered that Bai Su, who was usually very kind to him, had completely lost his good expression and was very nervous.
The two of them were silent for a long time, looking at their partners without saying a word. The depressing atmosphere made people feel suffocated.
Chen Tian didn't want this to go on. He understood his partner's soft heart, so when Bai Su dug out another piece of ointment and smeared it on his body, he pretended to groan again, as if he couldn't bear the pain.
Sure enough, the man on the other side paused, and then attacked much more gently than before.
Bai Su felt Chen Tian's body trembling slightly when he applied the medicine. He sighed helplessly, but in the end he couldn't bear it.
Holding Chen Tian's shoulders and letting him lean against him, Bai Su applied medicine to his waist and whispered to him, "If you feel severe pain, bite my shoulder."
After saying that, he continued to apply medicine to Chen Tian carefully.
Chen Tian's heart instantly softened when his partner treated him so tenderly and lovingly.
Reapplying medicine to the open wound was painful, but he could bear the pain. Besides, he couldn't bear to hurt his lover.
However, he still leaned on the other's shoulder obediently, silently breathing in the scent of his beloved. Although his body was in pain, a faint sense of happiness flowed in his heart.
Fortunately, the lacerations were only on one side of his waist and abdomen, and the rest of his injuries were intact. It was only because Bai Su was too cautious that the medicine was applied so slowly.
"Will you dare to torture yourself like this again in the future?"
Bai Su's voice suddenly rang out, disrupting Chen Tian's joyful thoughts. He quickly shook his head vigorously, his beautiful eyes fixed on Bai Su, full of obedience.
"I just want to help you. Don't worry, once my injury heals, I'll go hunting in the mountains. I'm very good at martial arts, and the prey I kill will sell for a lot of money!"
So, don’t be so hard on yourself!”
The beauty's eyes seemed to be filled with him. Bai Su's lips moved, but he couldn't bear to continue blaming her. He helped Chen Tian lie down and let him rest well, but his heart was in turmoil.
There was joy and also complaints. He was happy that the beauty was thinking of him, but he also complained that he was too disobedient and did not take care of his body.
The next day, Bai Su explained to Chen Tian that in addition to farming, he actually had other work in the town, and his family was not short of money, but it was just that the accounts had not been settled before.
Now that the money has been recovered, his family will be able to live a good life in the future, so he doesn't have to worry.
However, in the next two days, Bai Su's attitude towards Chen Tian became much colder.
Although the food was better than before and he was given medicine carefully every day, her expression and words were not proactive at all, as if she was deliberately leaving him alone to punish him, which made Chen Tian feel anxious and uncomfortable.
Bai Su had always been considerate and close to him during this period, so Chen Tian was of course unwilling to be left out all of a sudden. However, he also knew that it was because of his injury that made his lover angry.
So he didn't dare to do anything unnecessary and just lay in bed to recuperate, for fear of doing anything to make the other person angry again.
Finally, two days later, seeing that Chen Tian had behaved well, Bai Su smiled at him again.
With the help of 009, Chen Tian's injuries recovered faster.
After about another week, after Bai Su's examination confirmed that Chen Tian's wound was indeed completely healed and he could help him, Chen Tian was allowed to do some light work.
However, he would go to the fields to bring food to Bai Su at noon every day. Sometimes, he would help Bai Su weed and do other things within his ability.
He hadn't noticed it before because he didn't come to the fields often. But in just a few days, Chen Tian noticed that there were quite a few girls in the fields who showed their interest in Bai Su.
It turned out that it wasn’t just Li Xiaochan who came to deliver eggs that day, there were also girls from other families.
They always loved to come and give Bai Su gifts. Some of them were reserved, which was fine. Some of them were passionate and outgoing, and even if Bai Su refused, they would still want to drag him along and talk about this and that, which made Chen Tian jealous and irritated him so much that he vented his anger like crazy.
In fact, when it comes to appearance, Chen Tian is definitely more outstanding, but his appearance is too good and aggressive. Many women feel ashamed when they see his face, and it is difficult for them to take the initiative to approach him.
Furthermore, he was wearing old white clothes, which made him look like someone who didn't have money. Also, because he was recovering from his injuries, Bai Su didn't let him do any heavy work, which made him look like he was just a face and nothing else.
Some people even speculated that this relative of his was lazy and poor, and was driven away by his family, so he came to seek refuge with Mr. Bai.
Some young men were eager to make a move, but except when facing Bai Su, Chen Tian always had a cold face, which made people feel difficult to approach.
That day, he and Bai Su had just had lunch together and were sitting under a tree to enjoy the cool air.
Chen Tian took the fan he had prepared in advance and fanned Bai Su again and again. Bai Su took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat and considerately poured him some water.
The two were being affectionate with each other when Chen Tian noticed Li Xiaochan coming over with another basket.
Although Bai Su was not close to the people in Lijia Village, he always had a smile on his face and spoke very carefully, which left a good impression on everyone.
There are many girls in the village who admire Bai Su, and Li Xiaochan is one of them.
Although she was shocked by Chen Tian's appearance and did not show up for several days, she later realized that no matter how good-looking he was, he was still a man.
Furthermore, I heard from people in the village that this man was a relative of Mr. Bai.
Since it was a relative visiting, there was no need to hide. Furthermore, I heard that the man had a good relationship with Bai Xiucai, so I should actively show my goodwill.
But just as Li Xiaochan got closer, someone caught up with her from behind.
A young man walked quickly up to Li Xiaochan and said to her with a smile, "Xiaochan, you've come to the fields. No wonder you weren't there when I came looking for you. I went to town today and saw someone selling rouge and powder, so I bought a box just for you. Come on, take it!"
As he spoke, the man handed a small round box in his hand to Li Xiaochan.
"Boss, this person is Li Zixiu."
The voice of 009 came from his sea of consciousness. Chen Tian nodded when he heard it. In fact, he could probably guess it without the system saying it.
Li Zixiu in front of him looked to be around twenty years old, with a handsome face.
Because his family was considered well-off in the village, he was better dressed than most people. He wore a long green gown and a jade pendant, looking like a scholar.
However, perhaps Li Zixiu still felt in his heart that Li Xiaochan was just an illiterate farm girl. Even if the Li family would become wealthy in the future, they were just a family of peasants now and were not worth his attention at all.
So, on the surface, Li Zixiu showed deep affection for Li Xiaochan, but in his eyes there was a hint of disdain. Even the box of rouge he gave to Li Xiaochan was obviously inferior at first glance.
Seeing this, Chen Tian's eyes flashed with sarcasm.
He doesn't show any sincerity at all and is so stingy, yet he still dreams of marrying the daughter of a future wealthy family.
What a great way to get something for nothing.
Sure enough, this reborn man has a face as big as a basin and his character is worrying.
