Sun Chun did not even look up, "I knew you would come over, so there's no need to speak about my apologies. Tomorrow, you will be coming with me to the town to help Xia Qing choose a private school."

"Today, I will go to the Nine Dragon Mountain outside the village's entrance to gather medicinal herbs. Tomorrow, I will go to the town to find the Grand Master Ding to deliver the medicinal herbs, and I can go with you."

Xia Li only cared about what could earn money and support the family. She could no longer keep an eye on Sun Chun's little emotions, "Then help my mother take care of Xia Qing properly today, you can also find something else to do. You can also clean the house yourself, it will be fine.

Sun Chun did not reply. He went back to Lee's's room without a clue, and while touching the forehead of the sleeping Xia Qing, he became completely relaxed. He pulled Lee's's hand and laughed.

Mother, my brother's forehead is no longer hot. After a good rest, he should be able to walk around on the ground. Sun Chun and I have discussed this and we will send him to the town's school to read tomorrow.

"Really? Qing Er was going to study! "Great, then I'll start sewing now. One day is enough."

Lee's looked at Xia Qing excitedly. After confirming that his forehead was not hot, he started to look for a needle and thread basket and cloth.

"Mother, didn't I give you a few pieces of cloth? You have plenty of free time in the future so you can make clothes. After all, my younger brother will be studying hard from now on."

Xia Li started to worry about the personal arrangements of the Lee's again.

"Mother remembers now. This cloth is locked inside the box. Mother will take it out today."

The Lee's said, and was about to touch the key on his body.

Mother, you have to busy yourself first. I am going to the Nine Dragon Mountain to gather herbs, my new home has been settled, and those bad people have been cleaned up. You can stay at home peacefully, don't let my brother out, and don't go out and chat with others.

Xia Li was a little worried, but he still warned Lee's a few times.

"My daughter, don't worry. After so many things happened, Mother will remember the lesson."

Lee's stopped in his tracks, turned around and glanced at Xia Li, then lowered his head and began to unlock the box.

"Then you can wait, I'll go gather the herbs."

After Xia Li finished speaking, he went back to his room to change into a set of clothes that were resistant to dirt.

She carried a basket on her back and walked out of her house to meet Grandma Wang.

Xia Li's face was full of smiles. Just as he wanted to greet the Grandma Wang, the other party, with a face full of panic, walked to his courtyard with his short legs and hid inside his house, closing the door tightly.

A look of disappointment flashed across Xia Li's eyes.

She awkwardly laughed, turned around and walked out of the alley towards the street. Coincidentally, like her village friend who was looking for her to collect her debts earlier, all of them hid to the side when they saw Xia Li, some of them even fell into the ditch because they didn't see the way clearly. There were even some children who started crying when they saw Xia Li, who hid into their parents' embrace in fright.

There were also some mischievous children hiding in the corner and sneakily glancing at Xia Li. All of them were grabbed by the ears by their parents and dragged into the house.

Along the way, Xia Li only felt several tens of eyes peeking at her from behind. The entire street was empty; it was obviously a sunny day in April or May, yet she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

This kind of group action, which was deliberately avoided by others, still made her a little irritated.

Xia Li walked out of the village, past the Water God temple, around the deep pool, and through a small forest. She circled around a stream and walked up the mountain, looking at the mountain full of medicinal herbs, she became spirited again, rubbed her hands together, and looked around her surroundings.

Just as Xia Li left, Grandma Wang stayed in the house to help his old man sleep. He then walked out of the courtyard and peeked his head in the courtyard.

The doors to the Lee's and Xia Qing's rooms were tightly shut, and did not reveal their appearance at all. Only Sun Chun sat under the large tree in the courtyard alone, leisurely reading a book while occasionally drinking some tea.

"Grandma Wang? "Come, let's go into the yard and have a cup of tea."

Sun Chun had already noticed Grandma Wang sneaking around like a thief long ago, he waved his hand to let her in.

"No need …" I'll just stand there. "

The Grandma Wang was so scared that he took a step back.

"Grandma Wang, what are you afraid of?"

Sun Chun thought for a while, then asked frankly.

"You all … How did you offend the people of Rich Man Yang? They are people that you cannot afford to offend, so don't think that you can live a peaceful life in the future! "

Grandma Wang looked around carefully, lowered his voice, and berated Sun Chun.

"Oh? "What do you mean?"

Sun Chun asked.

"In short, they are devils. You have offended them, and if I don't torture you to death, they will not let you go. You have truly brought no small amount of trouble to this village. With my old physique, how could I dodge the punches and kicks of those boorish fellows?

The Grandma Wang waved his hands and slipped away.

As Sun Chun heard the words of the Grandma Wang just now, he recalled the bowls that were shattered by the brutes in the kitchen and the few steamed buns that had disappeared without a reason. It was obvious that those people harbored hatred in their hearts.

Sun Chun placed the teacup in his hand on the table and stood up. He walked to Lee's and Xia Qing's room and knocked on the door.

"Young Master Sun, what's the matter?"

Lee's opened the door and peeked outside as he asked softly.

"Aunt, how is Xia Qing?"

Sun Chun saw that it was not convenient and directly entered the house, then asked Lee's.

"After he drank the medicine, his forehead wasn't hot anymore. He's already asleep. I'm watching over him."

Lee's heaved a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Aunty, can you tell me how to get to Nine Dragons Mountain?"

Sun Chun went straight to the point.

"Once we are out of the village, we will pass by the Water God temple and the deep pool. We will reach our destination after passing through a small forest."

Lee's guessed that Sun Chun was going to find Xia Li and told him the truth.

"Aunt, I'll leave first. Please don't open the door for anyone before Xia Li and I return."

Sun Chun's serious look scared the Lee's.

She froze for a moment, then immediately nodded her head like she was pounding garlic. She slammed the door shut and locked it from the inside.

Hearing the clear and crisp sound of a lock opening behind the door, Sun Chun guarded the door for a moment. Seeing that his surroundings were still safe, he held his stomach, and slowly walked out.

Sun Chun walked over, although he did not receive as much cold treatment as Xia Li, a majority of the people in the village still kept their distance from him, leaving a few girls who still had feelings for him behind him, observing from afar, their eyes filled with regret.

At this time, Xia Li had already picked four to five full baskets of medicinal herbs at Nine Dragon Mountain, and stored them all in the spatial insurance medicine storage room. Inside the spatial space, she had organized the medicinal herbs needed to create the painkillers and placed them in the research and development equipment.

As he walked down the mountain, he casually picked some medicinal herbs. As he walked down the mountain, he filled the basket with medicinal herbs as well, and she picked some of the medicinal herbs that were used to treat various kinds of external injuries, wind fever, and abdominal pain, and stored them in the basket to be kept as backup in her daily life.

At this time, the sun had already risen high in the sky, the sun rays scorching hot like fire. Under the sunlight, Xia Li was also unable to open his eyes, and using his hand to block the sunlight, he carefully walked down the mountain step by step.

Staying on the mountain for almost an hour, when Xia Li went down the mountain and passed by the small forest, he was so shocked that he almost threw the basket on his back onto the ground.

scarred man brought three brutes and came out from the forest. His eyes were so swollen that only a small gap was left in them, his lips were swollen like a fat intestines, as he approached Xia Li step by step.

"Damned girl, how dare you lay your hands on us brothers. Brothers, teach her a good lesson!"

The instant scarred man waved his hand, Xia Li clenched his fists tightly and threw the basket towards him. The basket made a "huan" sound in the air, directly brushing past scarred man's eyes and landing on the ground.

"My eyes hurt! Damn brat, the basket on her back hurt my eyes! "

scarred man roared as he covered his eyes and cursed.

"Big brother, what's wrong with your eyes?"

The rest of the wild men surrounded scarred man as they asked questions. Xia Li took advantage of the opportunity and ran.

"You idiots, why are you surrounding us? Hurry up and chase us!"

scarred man covered his eyes and patted the heads of the subordinates beside him.

"Yes, big brother, let's chase after that damn girl!"

A quick-witted person brought the other two along as they chased in the direction that Xia Li had left.

Suddenly, he stretched out a hand midway and pulled her over. As Xia Li was caught off guard, he let out a cry and his body became unsteady. Along the way, he brought someone over and the two of them rolled onto the ground.

"That damned girl was here just now. Where did she go now?"

"Let's not talk about that anymore. With this place as the center, looking everywhere, she definitely can't get far by herself! Furthermore, her home is still in this village, and she's afraid that she won't be able to find anyone! "

"Exactly!"

The three boorish men sneered and started to search the area.

The current Xia Li was hiding in the nearby woods. As she approached, she realized that the person who had saved her was none other than Sun Chun.

"Don't say anything, come with me."

Sun Chun leaned close to Xia Li's ear and whispered.

"Yes."

Sun Chun's large hands wrapped around her small hands, and felt the thick warmth of her palm. Xia Li's wildly beating heart miraculously quieted down, and felt much more at ease as he obediently nodded.

She had been led by Sun Chun to dodge from the left and right, to avoid the three barbarian men's pursuit, and ran to the back of the pool to circle around. She discovered that there was a cave entrance where the vine was hiding, and Sun Chun had pulled Xia Li to hide inside.

"Are there snakes in the cave?" Xia Li stayed in the pitch black hole and held onto Sun Chun's hand tightly.
