The man watched as she pulled on his indecent clothes and tied them with a butterfly knot.

After carefully checking her surroundings to make sure nothing was amiss, she opened the door and left the room.

The man's body, which had been tensed up until then, gradually relaxed in her absence.

He raised his hand and touched his forehead, pretending to be calm and emotionless. Gradually, he withdrew his hand and a bitter smile appeared on his lips.

She was in his arms, but he almost …

He almost couldn't hold it in.

Take her on the spot.

When Lin Xuecha walked out of the room, the old man was in the hall fiddling with the herbs.

After the awkwardness earlier, she subconsciously held her clothes tightly and called him grandpa before walking out of the room.

When they passed by the old man, the old man glanced at her with a tinge of amusement on his face. "Everyone says that young people have good stamina. I've seen it for myself."

Hearing that, Lin Xuecha's face which was already slightly red, started to turn red uncontrollably.

Although the old man had misunderstood, there were some things that were true and could not be pretended to have never happened …

Lin Xuecha didn't bother with the old man, and increased his pace.

The teasing old man couldn't help but laugh out loud as he shouted at her, "Be careful to stay calm tonight. Your husband is still injured."

Before he finished speaking, the woman who was walking by the door instantly disappeared.

The old man was laughing so hard that he was out of breath.

Coincidentally, the old woman came into the room with an empty wooden basin.

Seeing the old man's behavior, she couldn't help but strike out at him, "Still laughing. There aren't many teeth anyway. If you keep laughing, then there won't be any more."

The old man immediately restrained his smile.

He coughed and looked at the grandma with a serious expression. Then, he lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the herb in his hand.

Lin Xuecha would never treat an obscene thing like an outer garment.

She touched the clothes she had washed last night.

He took off the clothes, dried them with his inner force, and put them back on.

She brought water for Su Nanxing to wash up and after taking care of everything, she walked out of the bamboo house.

Lin Xuecha's culinary skills were really bad, so she did not dare to fight with the old granny over the food.

He just squatted and held the firewood, waiting for the water to boil.

The old granny was a chatterbox. There weren't many people living here, and she was familiar with almost all of the other families. Every day when she had nothing to do, she would run over to someone else's house and chat for the whole morning.

Her fingers were rough, but extremely agile. She shook the noodles and sprinkled them into the boiling water.

"This noodles is delicious in the town. It's a pity that my old man can't cook it. Otherwise, I wouldn't need to send someone else to buy it."

The old granny talked nonstop with Lin Xuecha.

When he said these words, Lin Xuecha's gaze slightly changed, and he asked.

"I guess this town should not be far from here. If Granny feels like it's delicious, you can just buy them and eat."

The old granny twitched her mouth. For the first time, Lin Xuecha realised that the old lady was also exceptionally cute when she pursed her lips.

"Nope, the town is far from here. It's fortunate that they have good legs. It will take more than two hours for them to come and go. I can't take it."

Lin Xuecha said with a smile, "Grandma is right, but isn't Capital City close by? It's also convenient for Granny and Grandfather to train and walk around, right?"

The old granny used her wooden chopsticks to stir the noodles in the water, "What Capital City, how can the Capital City not be far from here? It's far away, this is An Chu County, how can it be close to the Capital City?!"

An Chu County...?

Lin Xuecha was startled.

This is Anchu County!

She and Su Nanxing actually came to An Chu County?

However, they had only gone through the city gate and had not crossed the line yet.

How, how did he come to the neighboring counties of Capital City?!

Although it was a neighbouring county, An Chu County was quite a distance away from Capital City.

It was fine if it was a horse carriage, but it would only take two hours. If he were to use his legs, it would probably take another four hours. Perhaps, it would not be enough …

Because An Chu County is also a big county.

She didn't even know where she was in Anyi County.

If the route was not clear, how could he go back?

"Alright, it's almost ready to be eaten."

The old granny did not know what Lin Xuecha was thinking, she used a cloth to scoop up the noodles and placed them in a clean pot by the side.

Lin Xuecha put down the fan in his hands, stood up and walked over to help the old granny.

The old granny's craftsmanship seemed to be very good.

The pale yellow noodles were placed in the pot, and the old granny poured a little salt into the pot.

Just as she was about to put some chili on the table, Lin Xuecha quickly stopped her and said, "Grandma, I, my husband is still injured, he can't eat chilies …"

Suddenly enlightened, the old granny smirked, "Look at my memory, I forgot that your husband can't eat spicy food."

She scooped up a bowl of noodles and prepared it for Lin Xuecha.

He then put some chili and onion into the pot.

Stir, and mix.

A fragrant smell instantly wafted out.

Lin Xuecha's eyes flashed, and only felt his appetite stir.

"Don't look at the simple way the noodles are made and think that they're not tasty. On the contrary, this old woman thinks that the noodles are just like people, the simpler they are, the more extraordinary they are."

She paused for a moment before placing the noodles in a blue and white porcelain bowl. "If I am with your husband in the future, it will be simple and plain. It will definitely last for a long time."

Lin Xuecha was startled.

She didn't even have the possibility of being together with him, so how could they continue to talk for long?

The old woman handed her another bowl of noodles.

Her gaze was fixed in the bowl, somewhat distant. Her tone also carried some distant sentiments.

Back then, when I was in a bad mood with this old man, if it wasn't for him, he would have cooked me a bowl of noodles. Back then, when I was in a bad mood with this old man, if it wasn't for him, he would have cooked me a bowl of noodles.

Lin Xuecha blinked his eyes lightly, "Grandfather only took a bowl of noodles and married a wife. Grandma wanted to tell Xue Cha that Xue Cha should have plenty of snow tea in order to find a husband, and marry them off?"

The old granny could not help but laugh, she glared at Lin Xuecha, "You damned brat …"

The somewhat sentimental atmosphere instantly vanished into thin air.

"Your husband looks so beautiful, and he dotes on you so much. Who else do you want to marry off?"

She recognized him for his good looks.

As far as she was concerned, after jumping off the cliff, she didn't have such a feeling …

Seeming to have seen through her thoughts, the old granny glared at her in annoyance. "You little wench, you can't be so heartless."

"My family's old man said that your family's husband's injuries aren't light, and I heard that he had suffered an old injury in the past that he couldn't use his power, or something like that. He's not only injured, he's also injured internally, and my family's old man said that he needs to take medicine to rest, I also thought that he would, hmph …"

"You don't know, last night when I woke up to go to the restroom, he was holding a light and giving you medicine in your hand. His ankle was slightly fractured, and he was still enduring the pain while crouching down to apply medicine on you. I think it's because he's afraid that you'll feel uncomfortable and hurt …"

She sighed, ignoring the shock in Lin Xuecha's eyes, and continued, "That really is a good Master. I could even see the sweat on his forehead, and the color of his lips was pale, but he was still able to endure.

Lin Xuecha's originally calm black eyes flashed with astonishment, and then slowly became dark.

Her slender fingers gripped the blue and white porcelain bowl tightly.

He pursed his lips as well, panic rising in his heart.

However, when her thoughts changed, she blamed everything that had happened because she was his disciple.

Just like how he was her master.

Didn't she not abandon him?

He was injured, and she was with him, taking care of him, didn't she?

From what the old granny said, didn't that mean that she also had deep feelings for him …?

However.

She didn't.

The two of them entered the bamboo house.

The old granny passed a bowl of noodles to the old man. The old man immediately put down the medicinal ingredients in his hand. He wanted to take them, but the old lady nimbly dodged his request.

"You've made medicine all morning and the smell is so bad. Hurry up and go wash your hands before you eat them."

The old man sighed with a smile and walked out of the room to wash his hands.

Lin Xuecha laughed, the old granny was not embarrassed at all, instead, she looked at her, "Hurry up and send your master food, maybe he has already starved to death."

Lin Xuecha nodded, "Yes."

She walked around the old granny and used her feet to push open the half-open wooden door. Carrying two bowls of noodles, she walked in.

Right now, Su Nanxing could either only be half-lying or just sitting.

A child with a wound on his back and a wound on his foot was just pitiful.

There were no tables in the room, so Lin Xuecha could only give the bowl of plain noodles to Su Nanxing.

Su Nanxing did not care and extended his hand to receive it.

Suddenly, Lin Xuecha remembered that Su Nanxing had mentioned looking up at him, so he chose a seat slightly further away from Su Nanxing and sat down to eat.

However, they were all in the same bed. How far could they possibly be?

The corner of the man's mouth curled up slightly.

This breakfast was the simplest breakfast that Lin Xuecha had eaten since he came to know Su Nanxing.

Yet it was the warmest and most harmonious breakfast.

After eating breakfast, Lin Xuecha followed the old granny to gather herbs.

Su Nanxing needed a lot of potions.

However, the old man still had a handful of the medicine he'd consumed outside the bamboo house to dry.

She saved the time to look for it.

He only needed to find Su Nanxing's medicine.

While talking to her, the old woman told her what kind of medicinal properties the herbs had.

Lin Xuecha listened obediently.

After everything that had happened.

Lin Xuecha suddenly felt that the so called barefoot doctor's medical skills were actually not as inferior as ordinary people thought.

When she returned, the old man instructed her on how to prepare the external medicine.

Lin Xuecha listened obediently without a hint of impatience on his face.

Even if she understood what he said, all the steps.

After drinking the medicine, she sent it over to Su Nanxing.

Su Nanxing's outer robe did not dry.

He was also injured, so it was inconvenient for him to go out.

Lin Xuecha did not do so, and dried his clothes as well.

Now that he was still wearing the obscene and appalling clothes that he had changed into last night, Lin Xuecha didn't even need to say anything as he would automatically take off his clothes, take off the bandages on his body and change.

Perhaps it was the timely use of medicine.

The wound on Su Nanxing's back didn't become inflamed.

This was something that Lin Xuecha was rejoicing in.

As long as his injuries didn't worsen, they would be able to leave this place sooner.
