Mo Qinghe shook his head, "It's always good to build good relationships."
Indeed, the four of them did as instructed. The managers, having received the benefits, spoke with smiles and were much more polite to them, even introducing many people to buy food for them.
Su Nanxi gradually stopped interfering and let them do whatever they wanted, only offering suggestions as an option.
Mo Yunmei behaved herself for a few days and didn't want to do any housework anymore, so she begged her mother to let her go to the mountains with her. Seeing that she had become more obedient, Old Mrs. Mo agreed.
As usual, a string of radish heads followed Su Nanxi into the mountains.
Mo Yunmei squeezed to the front and stood next to Su Nanxi without saying a word.
Su Nanxi ignored her and went about her business.
"Ouch! Ouch! My stomach hurts so much, it hurts so much!"
Mo Yunmei suddenly clutched her stomach and cried out.
Su Nanxi was engrossed in picking mushrooms and didn't really want to pay attention to her, letting her call out to her.
Seeing that Su Nanxi ignored her, Mo Yunmei shouted even louder. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was about to give birth, as her screams were so eerie.
Children who heard the shouting nearby ran over and asked with concern, "Auntie, what's wrong?"
Mo Yunmei avoided the children and continued shouting towards Su Nanxi. Seeing how much pain she was in, Mo Jiarong went over to pull Su Nanxi away.
"Third Aunt, my aunt seems to have a stomachache, could you go and check on her?"
Su Nanxi had no choice but to go over. After watching for a while, she realized that Mo Yunmei was faking it, and turned to leave.
Mo Yunmei grabbed Su Nanxi's arm. "My stomach hurts. Help me over there. I need to relieve myself." She pointed to a lush, wooded area ahead.
Su Nanxi was extremely annoyed with her step-sister-in-law, who was always causing trouble! But she still helped her over, otherwise it would never end! It was so annoying!
When the children heard that he needed to relieve himself, they all turned away and moved far away.
We stopped around that point; there were too many trees and too much grass, so we probably couldn't see anything anymore.
Mo Yunmei pulled Su Nanxi along, saying, "If we go any further, people will still see us! I'm a young woman, I can't let anyone see me."
Su Nanxi had no choice but to leave again.
Mo Yunmei kept walking forward, which made Su Nanxi realize that something was wrong. Considering that she was pretending to have a stomachache, she must have some kind of conspiracy.
Mo Yunmei suddenly stopped and pushed Su Nanxi aside, saying, "Turn around and don't look at me!"
Su Nanxi was furious. Who wants to see you? You're not some stunning beauty!
Just stay here and relieve yourself slowly, do you really want people to smell your stench?
Just as she was about to leave, a gust of wind swept over her, and Su Nanxi thought Mo Yunmei had finished dealing with the situation and was coming over. The next instant, she was suddenly blasted from behind, and Su Nanxi was caught off guard and sent flying.
The place where they fell was not a slope, but a cliff, with dense trees below, making it impossible to see the bottom.
The moment Su Nanxi was pushed down, she understood what Mo Yunmei was trying to do. She quickly swung out her hook, hooked it onto a tree on the cliff, and used the momentum to lightly jump onto the tree.
At this moment, Mo Yunmei saw that Su Nanxi had really fallen. She listened for a while, but there was no sound. She figured he probably wouldn't be able to get back up, so she clapped her hands and left happily.
Below the cliff, Su Nanxi, who was in the tree, saw her leave and wanted to land first.
She observed for a moment and saw a raised clod of earth ahead, which she could reach by jumping over a few trees. She planned to rest there for a while and then go up after Mo Yunmei left.
Soon, she reached the clod of earth.
To her surprise, there was a small cave nearby! The cave was dark, and she didn't dare to go in rashly. But since she was already there, she felt uneasy if she didn't go and see for herself, so she took out a torch from her spatial storage.
A torch is safer than a flashlight. If it goes out, it means there is not enough oxygen, so get out of there immediately.
In case of any large creatures, she also took an iron rod.
After groping around for a few minutes, a sudden murderous aura swept over them, and Su Nanxi reacted quickly by using an iron rod to defend herself.
After several rounds, Su Nanxi gained the upper hand and suppressed her opponent.
Upon closer inspection, it was a person, or more precisely, a man, covered in dirt and grime, with a full beard, and appeared to be injured, his face deathly pale.
The man, panting, looked fearless and said, "Now that you've found me and I'm in your hands, you can do whatever you want with me."
After saying that, he raised his head, closed his eyes, and looked like a hero going to his death.
He's a true hero!
Su Nanxi realized that the man had misunderstood, so she gradually relaxed a little, poked him with her free hand, and then gestured.
The man was stunned. "You, you're mute?"
I guess so.
The man blinked, half-believing, half-doubting. "So, you're not one of Xu Gouzei's men?"
Who is Xu Gouzei?
She's an ordinary citizen; look, she's even carrying a basket on her back!
The man noticed the medicinal herbs in the basket and asked, "Are you here to collect herbs?"
I guess so.
Seeing that the man was less hostile, she wisely retreated. She had only taken a few steps when she heard a heavy thud behind her.
She desperately wanted to leave, but she couldn't. She remembered the man's pale face and, unable to bear it any longer, turned around and slowly walked back to look.
The man lay motionless on the ground, probably exhausted from fighting with her.
Given his imposing presence, let's try to save him.
Su Nanxi helped the man up against the cave wall and poured a lot of spiritual spring water into him using a bamboo tube. The man's jaw was clenched, so not much was poured in, but a lot leaked out, making him soaked all over.
Helpless, Su Nanxi picked up his sword and struck it repeatedly. The man subconsciously thought he was on a battlefield, and slightly opened his eyes, but quickly closed them again.
Upon seeing this, Su Nanxi immediately threw down the knife, pried open his mouth, and began to force-feed him through a bamboo tube.
After filling three bamboo tubes, Su Nanxi dared not fill any more for fear of exceeding the limit.
All she could do now was wait; there was nothing more she could do.
After waiting for a long time, just when Su Nanxi thought the person was beyond saving, the person moved slightly and then slowly opened their eyes, which were filled with confusion.
Su Nanxi ignored him, as long as he wasn't dead, she would let him slowly come to his senses.
"You saved me." (Declarative sentence)
It's good that you're not dead, you're welcome.
“I thought I was going to die this time! Miss, I can’t thank you enough.” The man took out a jade pendant. “I have no way to repay you now. If you ever need my help in the future, please take this jade pendant to the Cheng family in Baisha. The Cheng family will do everything in its power to help you.”
Su Nanxi didn't answer. Meeting was fate, and she didn't really want any repayment.
Seeing that she didn't answer, the man became anxious, then suddenly remembered something, "It was my oversight, my name is Cheng Yanming, I will not change my name or surname."
Su Nanxi finally accepted it, saying, "Take it; I might need it someday."
The man thought for a moment and then spoke again, "Does the young lady have any more medicine for treating injuries? Uh, the medicine you gave me was very effective; my whole body doesn't hurt anymore, and even my wounds feel better. If you have any more, would you be willing to give me some more?"
She didn't have any medicine to heal her wounds. The fact that the wounds didn't hurt meant that the flowing spring water had probably gotten onto them.
She finally gave him a bamboo tube of spiritual spring water and a few pills to replenish his qi and blood.
The person treasured it dearly and carefully put it away.
The Mo family.
A group of children ran back.
"What?! The mute girl fell off the cliff!"
