How did he know? Does he have clairvoyance?
"Um, what? Dr. Li asked me to talk about your condition, so I left my things there. I'll go get them when he comes tomorrow."
A hint of coldness flashed across An Rong's deep eyes.
What exactly does Li Tianlang want to do?
"DouDou, we can just buy more fruit if we run out. Don't bother them anymore." Li Tianlang had ulterior motives; they couldn't be allowed to have any more contact.
Yuan Doudou agreed in her heart, but since it was something she had bought with money, she was really reluctant to part with it.
Well, my husband has spoken, so I'll listen to him.
"Okay, I'll go buy it tomorrow." Money can be earned back.
Looking at her dim and indistinct face, An Rong suddenly realized that he had forgotten something important.
"DouDou, this is my military pay from all these years. I haven't had a chance to use it much, so I'm giving it to you for safekeeping. You can use it as you see fit."
Wow.
Yuan Doudou stared at the roll of silver notes, speechless. So many?
An excited heart, trembling hands.
Yuan Doudou took the silver note without hesitation and hurriedly opened it.
One, two, three.
Thirty-six in total.
Each bill is worth ten taels, totaling three hundred and sixty taels.
My goodness, after all this trouble, it turns out her husband is really something else.
Immediately become well-off.
"It's not much money. I'll earn it back once I'm healed." He didn't need to go to the battlefield anymore, so he thought he'd try his luck in the business world.
An Rong's lips curled up; his wife was so happy to see money, and he actually felt satisfied.
This is probably what a man's sense of responsibility is.
Over the years, in order to complete his mission, he has been unable to contact his family, causing them a lot of suffering.
His face was filled with sorrow at the thought that his mother was no longer with him.
From now on, DouDou and the child will be his only family.
As long as he lives, he will protect her.
That Wang Qiqiang might be someone I can entrust with my affairs.
You can tell he genuinely cares for DouDou.
"Husband, just tell me what you want to eat, and I'll make it happen for you." Yuan Doudou was still immersed in the joy of receiving money, completely forgetting that An Rong was an injured man, and slapped him on the chest.
An Rong grunted, veins bulging on his forehead.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yuan Doudou was flustered, apologizing repeatedly while checking her wound.
Upon closer inspection, blood is seeping out.
Oh no, they actually reopened the wound.
"It's all my fault. If you're angry, bite me." Yuan Doudou didn't want to owe anyone anything, so she rolled up her sleeves and stretched out her arm.
She truly meant what she said.
An Rong endured the pain from her wound and stared at her fair arm, which had several red marks on it.
"Are you injured?" His pupils constricted, and he grabbed her slender wrist.
Yuan Doudou looked down and saw some thin, long burns. It's inevitable to bump into things while cooking or tending the fire.
"It's alright, it doesn't hurt." She's used to it; she's not a delicate girl.
In the past, when she was learning needlework, if she accidentally pricked her finger with a needle, she would cover the wound and cry for a long time, her tears falling like beads from a broken string, one after another, without end.
Now, she remains unmoved by so many burns.
It's amazing how much a person can change.
It's probably because of the pressures of life.
He also dragged his family down, failing to fulfill his duties as a son and his responsibilities as a husband.
He survived by the skin of his teeth, only to be betrayed and poisoned.
He felt indebted to Dou Dou, a debt he could never repay in his lifetime.
"DouDou, I want to go home." His injuries won't kill him, and Li Tianlang has no way to cure the poison.
Most importantly, Li Tianlang has ulterior motives and will not let this go easily.
He didn't want to stay a moment longer.
Yuan Doudou thought of his poison. If it was truly the legendary love poison, she was willing to sacrifice herself for him.
It's really inconvenient here, I might as well go home.
“Okay, let’s go home,” she said with a smile, her eyes shining.
That evening, Yuan Doudou laid out the straw mat she had prepared in advance on the ground. She hadn't slept well the night before and was so sleepy she could barely keep her eyes open.
"DouDou, what are you doing?" An Rong leaned against the bed, completely bewildered.
The bed wasn't big, but it was enough for two people to sleep in.
Without hesitation, Yuan Doudou said, "You're a patient, so I'll sleep on the floor so I won't disturb you."
She had her back to An Rong, her cheeks flushed, and she bit her lower lip as she spoke.
Little did he know that Yuan Doudou didn't sleep in the bed because she was afraid that he would lose control of his animalistic desires and take advantage of the patient.
He was the original owner's husband; she couldn't be tempted by beauty and do something heinous.
She laid out the mat and lay down on it.
It was icy cold and hard.
It's really uncomfortable to hold.
She had no extra blankets, so she could only lie on her side with her arms crossed, her back to An Rong, curled up in a ball.
Fortunately, it was summer, and it was as cool as if the air conditioner was on.
She only realized after arriving here that summers here weren't as hot as back home, at most around 25 or 26 degrees Celsius. And since they lived in thatched huts, the climate was warm in winter and cool in summer, with a comfortable temperature except at noon.
She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Her mind was filled with fantasies about An Rong. It wasn't her fault; it was just that her body hadn't been with a man for too long, just like craving meat after not eating it for a long time.
So annoying.
The more you force yourself not to think about it, the more intensely you think about it.
It feels like it's her, not An Rong, who's been poisoned by love.
No, Yuan Doudou, you must keep yourself pure and not covet other women's husbands.
"DouDou, come sleep on the bed. The floor is too cold; it's not good for your health." He lay on the bed and listened to DouDou's sighs for a long time.
She tossed and turned, clearly not comfortable sleeping on the floor.
Yuan Doudou turned her back and didn't make a sound, pretending to snore.
My feigning-sleep skills, honed since childhood, fooled my parents for over a decade.
An Rong couldn't help but chuckle as he listened to the kitten-like snoring.
She's just so adorable.
Yuan Doudou was too tired, and she fell asleep after pretending for only a few seconds.
An Rong heard the even, faint breathing sounds and struggled to get out of bed. He wanted to carry Dou Dou to bed, but before he could get into position, the pain from his wound was unbearable.
He was worried that it would be like the night before, with blood flowing freely and soiling the gauze, requiring DouDou to come and change it.
I simply grabbed the thin blanket from the bed, lay down next to DouDou, and covered her with the blanket.
The bright moonlight shone through the window, illuminating her beautiful face.
An Rong lay flat, turned his head to look at her, and she looked so beautiful in the moonlight.
The moonlight, like water, veiled her with a translucent mist. Beneath her delicate eyebrows, her almond-shaped eyes were slightly closed, and her long eyelashes curled up like butterfly wings.
Beautiful and charming.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and he couldn't resist leaning in, but hesitated to touch it.
They are a married couple.
But three years have passed, and An Rong is unsure of her attitude towards him.
If she has no feelings for him, then anything he does is asking her to do something against her will.
No rush.
Time is running out, but he is willing to wait.
An Rong extended his thumb and gently brushed it across her brow, caressing her delicate eyebrows, his heart gradually sinking into her charm.
