Lin Yunchu was a little surprised. He saw that the man looked much more handsome than yesterday.
Although he had just recovered from a serious illness and looked rather haggard, it did not affect his overall graceful appearance.
All I saw was his pair of narrow, long, almond-shaped eyes, bright and lively. Although he was half lying on the bed, he still couldn't hide his extraordinary demeanor.
The person half-leaning on the bed suddenly smiled, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said softly to Lin Yunchu:
"This must be Miss Lin, right? Yanzhou mentioned you to me this morning. Thank you so much for saving me yesterday, otherwise I would have died in that forest."
Seeing that Lin Yunchu was still stunned, the person on the bed immediately reacted and said:
"Oh, my name is Xiao Er. I feel better now. When my followers come to find me in two days, I will leave and will not cause any trouble to you two."
After Xiao Er woke up and saw where he lived, and heard Lu Yanzhou talk about meeting him in the bamboo forest in the back mountain yesterday, he was able to guess the whole story.
Later, Lu Yanzhou told him the whole story and the location of this place. He now roughly knew that he was in a remote village in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
And the place where he was now was in the woodshed of Lu Yanzhou's house. Lu Yanzhou had already told him why he was placed here before he woke up this morning.
Qingxi Village is located in a remote area with simple folk customs. If the villagers knew that a stranger like him suddenly appeared, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble.
What's more, he was in the same condition yesterday, lying in a remote bamboo forest in the back mountain with wounds all over his body. If Lu Yanzhou and Lin Yunchu had not been kind-hearted and rescued him, he would have been in great danger by now.
Being able to rescue him and invite a doctor from the town to treat him was already a life-saving grace. Being able to have a place to stay was already great, and he was very grateful.
He had also left a letter for his followers. Now he just had to wait for someone to come find him so that he could leave.
He just gave Lu Yanzhou a hundred taels of silver in the morning, saying it was for saving his life, but Lu Yanzhou refused it. This made him look at him sideways.
You have to know that this is one hundred taels of silver. Although it is not a lot for him, this is all the silver he has left now, and judging from what Lu Yanzhou said.
This is a remote little village. Although one hundred taels is not a lot, it is a huge sum for the people here.
But he didn't expect Lu Yanzhou to refuse so straightforwardly. Now when he saw Lin Yunchu, whom he mentioned, he saw that her eyes were clear and there was no excessive reaction in her eyes when she saw him.
This was different from the women he had met in the past. In the past, any woman who appeared next to him would look at him with either shyness or a fierce gaze.
Suddenly seeing Lin Yunchu, a woman who had no other thoughts towards him, made him very curious.
Lin Yunchu wanted to laugh out loud when he heard the name "Xiao Er". This guy really just made up things without thinking. It was obvious that the name was made up casually and was not his real name at all.
And looking at his demeanor, he has nothing to do with this name.
But I think the person in front of me probably didn't want to reveal his true identity, so he just made up a fake name.
But this also saves trouble. They can just pretend that they don't know. This person won't stay here for too long anyway. He was seen unconscious yesterday, and it is not known whether he can wake up.
I didn't expect that Manager Zhao's medical skills were quite good. After taking this medicine, the patient woke up this morning and looked energetic. I estimate that he will be able to walk after two days of rest.
"Hello, Master Xiao!"
Lin Yunchu followed his words and said hello, then placed the chicken soup he brought on the small table beside him and said softly, "This is the chicken soup I stewed this morning. I brought it here to nourish Master Xiao."
Hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Xiao Er's expression froze. He put down the scroll in his hand, waved his hand, and coughed twice: "No, no, no, Miss Lin, just call me by my name. There's no need to be so distant."
There is no need to be so particular when going out. The two people in front of him not only saved his reputation, but also invited a doctor to treat him.
Now they have specially delivered some nourishing chicken soup, so just follow the local customs and there is no need to be too polite.
Moreover, after just one morning of spending time with Lu Yanzhou, Xiao Er had a good impression of him. He knew that he was a scholar, and after a conversation with him, he also realized that he was really knowledgeable.
I heard that the autumn examination will be held this year, and I think I will definitely be on the list.
The book in his hand was given to him by Lu Yanzhou because he was afraid that he would be bored.
Although Lin Yunchu himself had just met him, based on his understanding of Lu Yanzhou this morning, he thought he was right.
Moreover, the expression on her face had not changed since she came in. She was generous and not flattering, and did not mention the life-saving grace she had given him yesterday at all.
She also brought chicken soup, so I guess she is really a kind-hearted girl.
After hearing what Xiao Er said, Lin Yunchu didn't care. This name was just a nickname. It didn't matter what he called it, as long as the person in front of him was not a bad person.
As long as it doesn't cause them any trouble.
She didn't sleep well the whole night before, thinking about this matter all night long. She was afraid that this man's identity was not ordinary, and she didn't know whether it was right or wrong to rescue him.
But given what happened yesterday, seeing him injured and bitten by a snake, I couldn't just stand by and watch him die.
After a struggle between his conscience and his desires, Lin Yunchu came out with dark circles under his eyes today. Now seeing Xiao Er's appearance, he thought that there was no big problem.
As long as she didn't cause any unnecessary trouble, she would feel relieved.
Lin Yunchu turned around and went to the Lu family's kitchen, found a clean bowl, took out the chicken soup from the lunch box, and poured it into a bowl.
Then he looked at Lu Yanzhou, who then reacted and hurried forward to bring the poured chicken soup to Xiao Er.
Xiao Er watched the silent communication between the two, his lips slightly raised, a smile on his face.
After thanking the two for their kindness, Xiao Er also drank the chicken soup.
Then he took out the one hundred taels of silver note from the morning and handed it to Lin Yunchu.
"Miss Lin, although this one hundred taels of silver is not enough to express my gratitude to you two, I am grateful for your kindness in saving me."
After a pause, he continued with a smile, "But I really can't come up with more money right now. This is all I have. But when I return, I will definitely send someone to bring a thank you gift."
Xiao Er looked serious. He was not lying. He also confirmed that the two people in front of him were indeed not a threat to him. It was indeed a coincidence that they rescued him in the back mountain.
