After Bai Lu finished all the work, I went out, took a stroll in the dog days, took the horse to eat some grass and came back. After I came back and tied up the horse, the sun had already set. Today there were special fiery clouds, and the ground was full of red light. I stared at it for a long time.

Back in the house, Bai Lu had already fed Yunwen the medicine. Speaking of Yunwen's condition, Bai Lu briefly talked about it, saying that there were slight ruptures in her internal organs. In addition, after the beating, her meridians were blocked, her qi was stagnant, and her physical condition showed many symptoms of deficiency. Now the situation has improved, and her complexion is no longer liver-colored. I guess it is relatively better. She then talked about what she said this afternoon.

When it comes to the fact that Yunwen and I have recovered significantly faster than before, she still praises it highly.

Seeing that Bai Lu was still patient and more diligent and positive than before, I softened my attitude and said, "You've been tired all day, we'll cook dinner later. After dinner, you can take a rest. Your health isn't very good, so don't work too hard."

She smiled and said, "Thank you, but no, doing more will make me feel more at ease. If I lie down and rest, I will feel guilty and even more uneasy. Thank you for your kindness. I will cook right away. Please wait for me."

Since she said that, it was not convenient for me to say anything more.

Unfortunately, there were no tables, chairs or benches in the house. After all, it was just a new house and those things had not been made in time. Only the stove was relatively complete, and there was relatively little activity area near the stove, so it could only accommodate one person. I was helping by not causing more trouble, so I did not pile up there. Instead, I sat near the stairs and began to check out the things that needed to be done in the house.

Although Song Yingchun is bold and reckless, she, like her sister, tends to shrink when encountering trouble. She hurt us that day, but was also warned by Hu Lingshang and was almost shot to death. She has always been afraid of death, so it can be seen that she may curl up quietly for a while and dare not move. After all, the nine-tailed white fox is not an ordinary person. It appears and disappears suddenly and mysteriously. How dare Song Yingchun commit a crime against the wind and seek her own death?

She doesn't do anything, and I don't have the time to provoke her now. After all, Yunwen is still in a coma, and I am also injured and need recuperation. I will definitely not cause trouble for her in the near future. Besides, I have also thought that if she just stops and doesn't do anything stupid, then I won't bother with her so much. She can be the hyena queen if she wants, it doesn't matter, as long as she doesn't threaten us or the balance of the entire island.

But I think it would be difficult to do so with her personality. She has always been very vindictive and has a strong obsession.

"A table, three chairs, three pairs of chopsticks, a cupboard, shelves, Yunwen's desk, and bookshelves. These are all I can think of for now. Bailu, is there anything you want? I'll write them down." I asked.

She shook her head and smiled, thinking that it was too embarrassing to mention these things now.

Afterwards, Bai Lu began to show off her superb cooking skills again. She brought back a silver knife, which she kept for cutting vegetables. She skillfully peeled the four beans and cut them into small pieces. Then she poured all the Chinese medicine soup in the pot into the earthen basin, rinsed it briefly, poured fresh spring water from the earthen jar into the pot, poured all the potato pieces into it, and covered it with a lid.

On the other side, she used a knife to process other ingredients, cutting the wild vegetables into sections, slicing the wild mushrooms, and at the other end she went to get the fungus soaked in water. After the ingredients were prepared, she took advantage of her free time to wash the clothes with soap nuts several times and hang them up to dry, occasionally coming back to tinker with matches. After finishing the clothes, the potatoes were basically cooked. She took them out and put them on a washed chopping board of her choice, mashed them all into a paste, and when they cooled a little, she pinched them into a ball, and then patted them slightly to flatten them into a round cake shape.

Afterwards, she poured out the water in the pot (the pot can be disassembled on the stove), put various dry ingredients into the three potato cakes without oil, and fried them. The potato cakes were a little burnt when they were taken out, but the fragrance was fully out. After serving them out and placing them on an earthen plate, she made another pot and adjusted the soup base, which were all medicinal materials that can replenish qi and nourish blood for us, and poured the ingredients prepared before into it.

After making a pot of fresh soup, they lifted the pot. There were two earthen bowls, so each person could have one bowl for easy eating.

They temporarily replaced chopsticks with willow branches and started eating. Bai Lu was thoughtful and prepared enough for three people. There was still a lot left in the pot, as well as three potato cakes, one of which was left for Yunwen. However, the place to eat was a bit troublesome. The most convenient place to eat now was the stairs, at least they could sit down and eat.

So Bailu and I sat next to each other at the stairs, eating potato pancakes with soup bowls in our hands. We were enjoying the meal very much, especially the potato pancakes, which were a little sticky but still fragrant and memorable. The potatoes were a bit strong and dry, but this bowl of mixed vegetable soup solved that problem. I have to say it was perfect for our taste.

Afterwards, I brought the dishes up, and Bai Lu prepared to clean up. Before I went up, I felt sorry for her because she had been busy all day, so I said, "Rest after you're done. I'm counting on you to live two more days to take care of Yunwen."

"Okay, thank you Brother Zhou Bo. Then you should also rest early. These two days are the time for you to recover. You should not move too much. I will collect the dishes later, so you don't have to come down again." Bai Lu said.

"Are you planning to treat us as servants of the young masters and young ladies? There's no need to do that. Besides, I don't know if I guessed wrong, but there's no place to sleep downstairs. When I asked you to rest, I meant that I wanted you to come back upstairs and sleep with us. After all, there are no beds around." I said.

"I'll go pick up some hay and spread it next to the stove." Bai Lu said.

I couldn't persuade her for the moment. Besides, I was holding the food on a wooden board with one hand, so it was inconvenient to talk more. So I gave up and went upstairs quickly before my hand got too sore.

When I got to the second floor, it was already dark. I put the plate at the end of the bed and was about to go downstairs to get a torch or something, but I heard Yunwen calling me: "Zhou Bo..."

I couldn't take care of it for the moment, so I hurried over. But at least there was some moonlight, so I wasn't completely blind, but I could see some light through. I could tell where the bed was and where the open space was. If I paid a little attention, I could ensure that I wouldn't trip in the dark. I came to the bed and saw that Yunwen had stood up slightly, but I couldn't see her face clearly, only an outline.

When Yunwen saw me coming, she began to feel around me with her hands. Her warm hands occasionally touched my waist and abdomen. I also knew that she was afraid of the dark, so she was looking for my hand to feel safe. However, that slight touch made my skin feel a little hot. I had many associations, but I quickly gave up the idea. After all, she was a patient dying of thirst.

"Ahem, are you afraid of the dark?" I asked.

She hummed and gently pulled my hand. I understood what she meant and squatted down to accompany her at the head of the bed. She immediately let go of her hand and hit me with both hands, saying, "What I'm afraid of is that you are not by my side."

I listened to her voice and roughly determined the position of her mouth, and from that, where her face was. I reached out and touched her tender face. What surprised me was that her face seemed even more tender, as tender as a baby's skin. I don't know if I was feeling wrong.

"Silly boy, why wouldn't I be by your side? I just wanted to get some fire. How are you? Are you feeling well?" I asked.

"I'm fine. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have come up with such a bad idea. Let's go talk to Yingchun. The sisters are not the kind of people who can be persuaded to rebel. You were shot by an arrow. If it was closer, I'm afraid you would have died. I deserve to die!" Yunwen blamed herself.

I gently raised my head, judged the location by the sound, and kissed her on the mouth. She groaned, probably because she was embarrassed, and I said, "What will I do if you die? Don't say such things again, or I will have to seal your mouth again."

She burst out laughing at my amusement and said shyly, "Hateful!"
