"Mother, it's better for us to consider this matter over the long term. After all, we still need Sun Chun's consent."

Xia Li thought about it carefully and replied to the Lee's.

As long as he thought of the day when Sun Chun might return to his family's side and disappear from her life, Xia Li would suddenly have no appetite to eat, and his heart would become empty.

Xia Li went up the mountain to pick the herbs and to make the ingredients. She hid the thirty taels of silver from Ding Liang to sell the pain-relieving pills away, and still had four hundred and seventy taels of silver. As long as she worked hard to earn money, maybe in less than half a year, she would be able to repay all the five hundred taels of silver.

Before the sun rose on the fourth day, Xia Li had already crawled into the space ahead of time and took out four of the painkillers she had prepared and hid them in her bosom. She planned to deliver the medicines to the town that day and take the silver that she had hidden at home to the village.

As a result, the moment Xia Li exited the space, a loud knock on the door scared her out of her wits, causing her to become vigilant.

The matter of space must not be exposed, otherwise, she would be captured as a demoness by this feudal era.

Xia Li took a deep breath, adjusted her collar and checked again. After confirming that the heart-shaped necklace was hidden well, she took a deep breath and opened the door.

"It's you. What's the matter?"

Xia Li looked at Sun Chun, who had taken the initiative to look for her for the first time, and was extremely surprised.

"When will we go to hospital?"

Sun Chun leaned on the door, his expression indifferent, his deep eyebrows as calm as water.

"When did you become so proactive?"

Xia Li looked at Sun Chun, and felt the sun rising from the west.

"You saved my life, ate your food, and lived with you. If I don't help you guys more, it would seem that I'm not sensible anymore."

A trace of a smile hung at the corner of Sun Chun's mouth, as if snow and ice that had melted in the beginning of spring had brought about a trace of warmth.

"What's wrong with you?" When did you become so courteous? "

Xia Li extended his hand out to touch Sun Chun's forehead. He wanted to touch Sun Chun's forehead to see if Sun Chun was sick or not, but he caught hold of his wrist instead.

"I'm serious. It's really hard for a weak girl like you to support this family. I want to share more of your burden."

As he listened to the man who had been indifferent to her for many days, his heart suddenly ached for her hard work. Xia Li felt as if a corner of his heart had been poked, and the corners of his eyes slightly twitched.

"I didn't put on a show in front of you, take back your sympathy!"

As Xia Li spoke, he pushed Sun Chun away and strode into the courtyard, trying his best to hide the bitterness in his heart.

The days of travel, the cowardice of Rich Man Yang trying his best to repay the debts, and the hard work of the domineering Madam Zhou, all of this came back to her mind one scene after another like a movie.

Xia Li had never felt that it was tough, so he walked in step by step and let nature take its course.

Now, with just a few casual words from Sun Chun, she had actually lost control of her emotions.

Sun Chun did not chase after her, he had always been leaning on the door, looking at the lady's back. He was thin but strong, working hard to carry the family's livelihood, her hardships had always infected him, making him not feel bitter.

"What are all of you doing? It's time to eat!"

Lee's had finished preparing breakfast, and was calling Xia Li who was standing in the courtyard in a daze, and Sun Chun who was lost in thought by the door of the room. The two of them looked at each other in tacit understanding, and walked towards the kitchen together.
