Shi Xiaorui watched Lu Shao carefully put up a shelf of firewood, then put the kettle on it and said, "I haven't heard you talk about your family. Are they OK?"
On hearing Shi Xiaorui's words, Lu Shao's face became gloomy immediately, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Shi Xiaorui knew that he was abrupt, and quickly said: "I'm sorry, I'm just curious."
"Well, it doesn't matter. I haven't seen my family since I was a child. I grew up eating a hundred meals."
Shi Xiaorui's eyes are red. It's so pitiful that Lu Shao is an orphan.
Lu Shao heated the water, poured a cup and handed it to Shi Xiaorui, saying, "it's too late today. You stay with me for a night, and I'll take you back tomorrow morning."
Shi Xiaorui, like an iron heart, said: "I said, I won't go back! My father and my stepmother want to marry me to Li Fugui in the former village. I don't want to. I don't want to marry a man like that. You don't have to persuade me. I won't go back. "
Lu Shao scratched his head. He was not the kind of person who was good at persuading others. He asked, "what's your plan?"
This words asked Shi Xiaorui, where does she have any plans, she thought and said: "I want to go to the town to practice medicine, and then open a hospital."
Lu Shao said with a bitter smile, "it costs a lot of money to open a hospital in the town."
Shi Xiaorui of course knows, she murmured: "as long as you want to do, there will always be a way."
Lu Shao looked at the resolute expression on his beautiful face. He moved his heart and said, "it's too late. You rest here. I sleep outside. If you have something, you call me."
Shi Xiaorui quickly waved her hand and said, "that's OK. This is your home. If you want to sleep outside, it should be me. How can you sleep outside?"
Lu Shao took out a piece of rolled animal skin and said, "your body is too weak. You can't stand the heavy humidity at night. I'm in the wild all the year round. If I can't come back after a long walk, it's common for me to sleep on the ground. It's OK. "
Looking at Lu Shao going out, Shi Xiaorui suddenly stopped him and said, "Hey, you come back."
Lu Shao turned around inexplicably and asked, "what's the matter? What else can I do for you? "
Shi Xiaorui said, "can you show me your face?"
When Lu Shao's face changed, Shi Xiaorui quickly explained: "there's no other meaning, you see!"
Shi Xiaorui rolled up her sleeve. Lu Shao saw that the wound on Shi Xiaorui's arm, which was scratched by a thief a while ago, was so good that she could hardly see the scar. Shi Xiaorui said: "I have studied a kind of herbal medicine these days to remove the scar. I just want to see if I can give it to you. After all, you have done so much for me."
Lu Shao looked at Shi Xiaorui's sincerity and was very moved. However, he hesitated for a long time. He was really afraid that his face would frighten Shi Xiaorui, so he said, "forget it. I've been injured for many years. What I can't see has become like that."
Shi Xiaorui didn't expect Lu Shao to refuse. She thought he was shy and said angrily, "you are a man of indomitable spirit. What can you be shy about?"
After hearing this, Lu Shao sat down in front of Shi Xiaorui and said, "if you want to see me, I'll show you, but just give you a look, so that you won't be scared."
It turned out that this was the reason. Shi Xiaorui felt warm in her heart. This seemingly rough man's heart was actually very meticulous. She nodded and said, "well, I know."
So Lu Shao began to slowly untie the mask on his face. Instead of facing Shi Xiaorui directly, he turned his head bit by bit for fear of scaring her.
What kind of face is that!
From the corner of the right eye to the corner of the mouth, a piece of meat on the face was missing, as if it had been bitten off, which made the half face a little crooked.
Although he was psychologically prepared, Shi Xiaorui could not help exclaiming. Lu Shao quickly turned his face, and then stretched out his hand to put on the mask. A white soft hand pressed his arm. Lu Shao turned back to meet Shi Xiaorui's tearful eyes.
Shi Xiaorui said bitterly: "I'm not afraid, or I feel distressed, you don't have to worry."
Lu Shao's heart leaped wildly. Shi Xiaorui's tender words almost melted his heart. He didn't dare to look at Shi Xiaorui any more and said, "it's just a face. You don't have to feel sorry for me."
Shi Xiaorui moved Lu Shao's head, faced the face and asked, "do you believe me?"
Lu Shao was asked: "believe it."
"From tomorrow on, I will cure it. Believe me, I will make you a beautiful man." Shi Xiaorui said with confidence.
Lu Shao nodded involuntarily.
Lying on the grass outside the hut, covered with animal skins, he looked up at the flickering stars in the sky. Listen, there is even breathing sound in the hut, Shi Xiaorui should be asleep.
Lu Shao has been helpless since he was a child and has never felt his family affection. After growing up, because of his beautiful appearance, the girls around him could not miss their eyes. But after destroying his appearance, everyone would see him as if he were a ghost, and avoid it. Lu Shao felt the warmth and coldness of human feelings and became indifferent.
Since seeing Shi Xiaorui, Lu Shao's heart has been burning like ashes again. Being with Shi Xiaorui will make Lu Shao feel warm and comfortable. If he can be with her all his life, he will have no regrets in this life.
Lu Shao thought disorderly, tossing and turning unceasingly, and was doomed to have no sleep tonight.
The next morning, when Shi Xiaorui woke up, she saw a bowl with some game in it.
She got up and went out of the hut to see that Lu Shao was not there.
Shi Xiaorui returns to the hut, eats something and starts to help Lu Shao clean up. In fact, there is no need at all. Every piece of Lu Shao's belongings are put in good order.
After a while, a voice came from outside: "wake up?"
Shi Xiaorui knew that Lu Shao had come back, so she went out of the house. Lu Shao tilted his back with a long bow, holding a bird that had just arrived, and said with a smile: "today, I'm lucky. As soon as I went out, I met a wild animal."
Shi Xiaorui said angrily, "I haven't finished what you left me in the morning. It's not the reincarnation of starving ghosts. Where can I have to eat again so soon?"
Lu Shao scratched his head with a smile: "that's what he said." He took off his bow and arrow and began to be busy grooming wild animals.
Sitting beside Lu Shao, Shi Xiaorui said, "I've figured out a way to treat your injury, but first I have to pick some herbs. Some of them can't be picked, so you need to buy them."
Lu Shao looked back. Shi Xiaorui didn't seem to be joking. He nodded and said, "OK."
"Also," Shi Xiaorui said while deliberating, "take a piece of skin from your buttock and apply it to your face."
Lu Shao was startled and said: "what's the reason? How can I put the skin on my ass on my face? What's my face like? "
