Hearing this, Qi Yuan felt uncomfortable in his heart, and felt more and more that Liang Cai deserved it.
After doing the task for so long, Qi Yuan felt numbness in his claws for the first time.
The two of them were speechless in the dilapidated room. Wang Hanwei looked at Qi Yuan with his back turned to her and didn't know how to speak. She could only clench the handkerchief tightly and lower her head in silence.
"Mr. Liang, please drink some porridge first. The lady cooked the porridge for you personally. You can't use your body to vent your anger." Xiaolan walked in with hot porridge and medicine to break the deadlock.
Wang Hanwei breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Xiaolan with praise, then reached out and took the porridge handed over by Xiaolan.
"Mr. Liang, please drink some porridge to warm your stomach first." Wang Hanwei said in a gentle voice.
Although Qi Yuan wanted to say no to eating, her stomach did not allow her to be so willful.
That's probably what eating people has a short mouth and taking advantage of others.
Qi Yuan supported his body with his elbows and then reluctantly stood up, avoiding Xiaolan's hand to help her sit up and lean against the wall.
Xiaolan's hands were empty, and then she stayed quietly behind Wang Hanwei.
"Ms. Wang, leave it there, I can do it myself." Qi Yuan's cheeks were thin and his lips were bloodless. Even if he had a good foundation, he really didn't look handsome as he died of a serious illness soon.
Wang Hanwei already knew that Liang Cai liked the daughter of the academy teacher, but she still acted like this in the face of such a cold face.
Qi Yuan could only say that it was fate. Due to the influence of luck, the couple became like this.
"Okay, then I'll leave it here and watch you drink the medicine before leaving." Wang Hanwei lowered her eyes to hide her disappointment.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan directly picked up the medicine bowl, tested the temperature and drank it all in one gulp.
Looking at the empty medicine bowl, Wang Hanwei's eyes began to blur, her throat became clogged, and she tried to force back the tears in her eyes.
Is he so unwilling to see her?
"Miss Wang, please come back. You don't have to call me Young Master in the future. I'm so kind, Miss. Just call me Qingyuan."
Qi Yuan's tone was gentle, he raised his finger and pointed at the door and said no more.
Wang Hanwei looked at Qi Yuan with a bit of joy when she heard this, and suddenly became confused again when she saw Qi Yuan's gesture pointing at the door.
He squeezed the handkerchief tightly and said, "Then I won't disturb you, Qingyuan."
The word Qingyuan was spoken for the first time, and for the first time Wang Hanwei felt that the distance between the two of them was no longer so distant.
Before Wang Hanwei and Xiaolan reached the door, they heard Qi Yuan speak again.
"Miss Wang, please don't go in and out at will in the future. I'm fine and can stand on my own." Qi Yuan's words were like a basin of cold water, completely extinguishing Wang Hanwei's newly raised expectations.
"Miss, what are you still thinking about him? You came to see him despite your objections, and he actually dared to think we were nosy." After leaving the Liang family, Xiaolan said angrily while sitting on the carriage.
"I didn't think carefully. He has to keep his filial piety, so it's really not good for me to visit him."
Wang Hanwei lifted the curtain and looked at the Liang family getting farther and farther behind her, and finally looked away, closed her eyes and chuckled.
"Miss, don't cry. We won't come here anymore. We won't be wronged anymore." Although Xiaolan had seen Wang Hanwei cry many times, this was the first time she had seen her cry so quietly and desperately.
Wang Hanwei thought of everything just now and couldn't hold back the pain in her heart.
I never thought that this was the case between them.
After a long while, Wang Hanwei wiped her tears with a handkerchief and returned to her usual appearance.
"Miss?"
"It's okay." Wang Hanwei patted Xiaolan's hand, "Go back through the back door. Mother will be angry again when she sees it."
Wang Hanwei said with a slight smile. Seeing her pretending to be strong, Xiaolan felt distressed and at the same time felt helpless that iron could not become steel.
Liang Cai was really blind. He couldn't see the slightest bit of good things about her young lady.
Qi Yuan, who couldn't see anything at all, was still leaning against the wall and sighing.
After drinking porridge and medicine, Qi Yuan used the power of his soul to warm up his body and then had a good sleep.
However, I was soon woken up by the coldness of the morning.
The fever has gone away, and the feeling of weakness in the limbs has improved a lot. Qi Yuan's mouth is dry but he can't even drink a sip of hot water.
All the land of the Liang family was sold, and even the funeral affairs of Liang's father and Liang's mother were arranged with the money compensated by the Xu family, and the neighbors were asked to help take care of it. The original Liang Cai also contracted a cold after the funeral and became ill.
Qi Yuan supported his body with his elbows. He broke out in sweat just when he stood up. He was really a poor scholar, unable to lift with his shoulders or carry with his hands.
When he opened the quilt, a sour smell hit his nostrils. His legs were broken and he was thrown out of the academy. After his parents died, there was no one to wipe his body.
It was really hard for Miss Wang to sit here for so long. Qi Yuan himself felt nauseous just from smelling it.
However, he got used to the smell. Qi Yuan bent down and reached out to touch the fractured area. The Xu family still acted in a measured manner. After all, he was a scholar and not a white body.
So I didn't dare to give it a real discount. It was just a broken ankle, and I just wanted to find a doctor who could fix the bone and take care of it.
With the money compensated by the Xu family, this injury would have no sequelae at all. Naturally, others can't catch Xu Hua's fault.
Qi Yuan stretched out his hand to check the fracture situation, and then used his hand to straighten the bone back. Qi Yuan was sore from the pain that he rested against the wall for a long time before he recovered.
This is the first time Wang Hanwei has come to visit. Qi Yuan said those words in the hope that she would not come. After all, she had to keep her filial piety and demand a life.
What matters now is how to survive.
Qi Yuan moved his ankle and was able to walk on the ground.
As soon as the rooster crows in the early morning, the farmers in the village are already busy in the fields.
Qi Yuan searched at home for a long time, but except for the half bag of fine rice brought by Wang Hanwei, there was nothing to eat at home.
He was originally a scholar at the age of twelve, and was engaged to the Wang family at the age of sixteen and entered the academy to study. Now he is only seventeen and has not yet reached the imperial examination.
In the Zhou Dynasty, the country was prosperous and the people were strong, and now the world is peaceful and has the appearance of a prosperous age. For scholars, there is a monthly subsidy of one tael of silver and one liter of rice.
A poor scholar, although poor, is still hungry, but Qi Yuan can't live on just that small subsidy.
What's more, this month's subsidy has been used up long ago, and there is still more than half a month until the next subsidy.
Qi Yuan boiled water to wash up and tidied up the house, and it was already noon.
Then he stood at the door and waited for someone. After a while, he saw Uncle Zhang and his three sons from the village heading home carrying hoes.
"Uncle Zhang." Qi Yuan stood at the door and shouted quickly.
Uncle Zhang's son quickly grabbed his father and raised his head to indicate the direction where Qi Yuan was standing.
Uncle Zhang walked up to Qi Yuan with a hoe and said, "It's Liang Xiucai. Is he recovered from his illness?"
Uncle Zhang's son tugged at his clothes. Miss Wang's family took medicine to visit him yesterday. Wouldn't it be better if he drank the medicine?
Liang Xiucai was really unlucky. His leg was broken when he went to the academy to study. Uncle Liang and his aunt died in an accident. Now he is alone and looks pitiful.
Countryside people are illiterate, but they still respect scholars. Although Liang Cai was confused about what he did, it is not unforgivable to correct him now. The social environment is such that men are always more tolerant.
