Xue Yu stood outside the door, looked inside, and called, "Husband, it's time to eat."
Although she didn't go in, she vaguely felt a gaze that seemed to be substantial and fell on her. It was extremely cold, as if she was just looking at a living creature with breath.
Xue Yu couldn't help but shudder.
Jiang Xuze heard Xue Yu's voice and didn't feel surprised when she didn't come in. He just thought she was a little shy.
He smiled at Wei Jingchen, "Mr. Wei, that's my wife, she's a blind girl. She rarely meets strangers. Don't mind. Your body has not eaten for a long time. I'll call her later." I’ll bring you some food.”
Jiang Xuze just learned from the man's mouth that his surname was Wei, and his family was in the silk and satin business. He had considerable assets in Jiangnan and was very wealthy.
In order to expand the business, his family sent him to purchase cloth. Unexpectedly, he encountered bandits and ended up living in Xiaohe Village.
"Trouble."
Wei Jing lowered his eyelids to cover up the indifference in his eyes, "When the servant below finds me, I will give him a hundred gold as a gift."
Wei Jingchen has been involved in conspiracies and intrigues since he was a child. He has received countless influences and has already developed a sharp eye for understanding people's hearts.
Why didn't he see Jiang Xuze's intentions towards him?
The kindness can be spent in money, which is enough to make this country man rich and noble for a lifetime.
Jiang Xuze suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and walked outside.
Xue Yu gave Jiang Xuze a bowl of japonica rice and smiled, "If you don't eat anymore, the food will be cold."
Jiang Xuze had no intention of paying attention to this, and said warmly to Xue Yu, "Master Wei said that when his body recovers, he will repay his kindness with a hundred golds. At that time, we will move to the town, and then open a medical clinic to treat If you buy a few hairpins, they will definitely look good on you..."
Listening to Jiang Xuze's expectations and imagination for the future, Xue Yu felt a sense of joy in her heart.
But when she thought that that person almost killed her, her joy suddenly disappeared without a trace.
"Husband, but I'm afraid..."
Xue Yu held Jiang Xuze's hand and looked timidly, "Didn't you say that when you rescued him, he was covered in blood? What if he was implicated?"
She didn't know what to say about the man who almost strangled her to death, and she was afraid that if she did, it would attract the attention of the men in the room.
Jiang Xuze knew that Xue Yu was as courageous as a rabbit in the forest. He would shrink back when he was slightly frightened. He only thought that his wife would be like this if she rarely saw a foreign man.
"Mr. Wei was injured because he was robbed by bandits. Moreover, although he was born into a wealthy businessman's family, he has excellent conversational skills. You don't need to be afraid."
Thinking that Wei Jingchen still needs to recuperate at home, and he often needs to visit doctors, he is afraid that he will not be able to take care of him all the time.
I'm afraid Xue Yu still needs to worry more.
Jiang Xuze held her hand, patted it gently, and comforted her several times, which finally made Xue Yu less afraid.
He also asked Xue Yu to bring Wei Jingchen some easily digestible food.
Xue Yu couldn't bear to refuse Jiang Xuze, so she cooked some more rice porridge and walked to the guest room. Without saying anything, she fumbled and put the pottery bowl on the table.
Suddenly a male voice came from behind, full of sincerity and apology, "Mrs. Jiang, I didn't mean to do this just now. I only did this when I dreamed of being assassinated by thieves..."
Because of her poor eyesight, she did not see the smile on the corners of the man's clear face.
I just felt that Wei Jingchen's tone was extremely cold and false.
Xue Yu turned around, clenched the wooden stick tightly with her fingertips, and placed it in front of her in a defensive posture, "...I understand."
Wei Jingchen smiled inexplicably, but she didn't believe him.
Suddenly, he remembered that the woman in front of him was blind, and the deliberate smile on his face gradually faded away.
He couldn't help but look at the little woman from the mountain village in front of him, and then he realized that she had a good appearance, which was really amazing.
Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her skin was as white as snow, as flawless as jade, and her lips were as red as if they had been smeared with lipstick.
Perhaps it was because her eyes were unfocused and her pupils were dark, which added a sense of vulnerability.
But to him, it doesn't matter.
Although this little woman has a fairy-like appearance, she is timid and afraid to tell Jiang Xuze about this at all.
"Put the food on the table for now. I'll collect it later." Xue Yu hurriedly said and left quickly.
It seemed like there was some tiger beast behind her.
Wei Jing lowered his eyelids and frowned slightly when he saw the gap on the edge of the pottery bowl.
But the pain coming from his body reminded him that he was no longer a high-ranking prince and was in danger of being assassinated at any time.
He had to recover as soon as possible.
Wei Jingcheng picked up the porridge with an expressionless face. The japonica rice slid down his throat, a little rough, but he ate it without changing his expression.
For the next period of time, except for bringing food and medicinal soup to the man, Xue Yu had no communication at all and wanted to hide away.
Today, Xue Yu brought food and decoctions to Wei Jingchen as usual. She came to the guest room with familiarity, crossed the threshold and walked in.
I glanced at the bed from the corner of my eye, but it was empty.
Xue Yu was worried that her eyesight was bad and she saw wrongly, so she took a closer look and found that Wei Jingchen was indeed not on the bed.
Could it be possible that he left?
The idea had just emerged when suddenly a cold and piercing gaze fell on her back, reminding her of the man's strong murderous intention towards her.
His body suddenly stiffened in place.
Xue Yu turned around after a long while, but couldn't see anything clearly.
You can only vaguely see the sunlight pouring in from outside the door, outlining a tall and tall figure. Although his face is blurry, you can still see a bit of dignity.
Seeing that the man's legs seemed fine, Xue Yu subconsciously said, "Can you get out of bed?"
Does that mean that Wei Jingchen's injury has healed and he will leave the mountain village soon?
Wei Jingchen was originally wondering why this woman who had always avoided him like a snake, scorpion and beast suddenly cared about him?
Seeing the undisguised joy on that bright moon-like face, he realized that Xue Yu couldn't wait to drive him away.
It's a pity that even if he wants to leave, her husband will still keep him to continue to recover from his illness.
Wei Jingchen suppressed his thoughts and replied coldly.
At this time, a woman's shout suddenly came from outside the hospital, "Third brother and sister, are you there? I'll come over and borrow something..."
Xue Yu frowned subconsciously when she heard a familiar voice outside. It was her second sister-in-law, Mrs. Li.
The dishes and chopsticks I borrowed last time have not been returned yet, and I am afraid that this time I will still be borrowing them but not returning them.
Since marrying into the Jiang family, Mr. Li often took advantage of her poor eyesight and gave her all kinds of dirty work, while doing the easy work such as cooking and feeding the chickens.
The euphemistic saying is that since her eyes are not good, she has to do more things that don't require her eyesight.
In order not to annoy Jiang Xuze, and he always looked tired every time he came back from a medical visit.
She didn't want to be disturbed anymore, so she endured it.
