When the two came out of the house, light rain started to fall from the sky.
Shi Tingyu didn't dare to delay, so he drove directly back to Liujiacun with Xiao Ming. He drove very fast and didn't stop, and returned to Liujiacun in less than an hour.
The fourth cousin's driving skills were even worse than Xia Xiaoba's. Xiao Ming was knocked unconscious along the way. When she got off the carriage, she felt that the ground was spinning. Xiao Ming missed the car in her previous life so much that it was too painful to sit on this carriage. People.
"Be careful." Shi Tingyu helped Xiao Ming who was about to fall. Was he driving too fast? This little girl couldn't stand it.
"Thank you! No defense." Xiao Ming shook her head and woke up.
Mother Yi and Mrs. Song were embroidering in the pavilion, and Mr. An was also here. The three of them chatted about home affairs together, talking affectionately. They were all surprised when they saw Xiao Ming and Shi Tingyu suddenly returning.
"Girl, is something wrong?" Yi's mother came over quickly.
An looked at Shi Tingyu with a respectful expression and wanted to salute, but she held back.
"I'll come back to get some medicine, please help Aunt An find some clothes for Brother Shi to change into." Xiao Ming said, Shi Tingyu drove all the way back, and his clothes were soaked by the rain. They didn't have suitable clothes for him to wear at home, so they had to go to the trouble Aunt An.
Xiao Ming did not dare to say anything about Xia Wu's poisoning, fearing that Aunt An would not be able to bear the blow.
"Okay, okay, leave it to me." Anshi looked distressedly at the prince's clothes being soaked and immediately agreed to Xiao Ming's request, but she was muttering in her heart that Xiao Ming's girl actually called the prince brother Shi, what's the matter? Is good?
At this time, she didn't know that her son was terminally ill and on a critical line between life and death, otherwise she wouldn't be in the mood to worry about Xiao Ming's name here.
Xiao Ming entered the pharmacy alone, closed the door and window and stepped into the space. Fortunately, when she accidentally obtained the space, she got herself a Western medicine warehouse and emptied almost all the medicines in the pharmacy. The medicines were complete, otherwise Xia Wu would It's dangerous once.
He took out the medicine Xia Wu needed and put it in the medicine box. He also took out the inactive medicine and put it in the pharmacy. After preparing everything, he opened the door and went out.
Outside the door, Shi Tingyu had changed into a set of clean clothes and was waiting. Mother Yi, Song, An and others were also waiting here.
"Sister Ming, are you going out? Let's have something to eat before we get wet!" Ms. Song asked, a little worried. The weather was bad today and it was raining all the time.
"Well, you don't have to wait for me tonight, I might not come back." Xiao Ming said, carrying the medicine box and quickly getting on the carriage.
Seeing the carriage go away, Ms. Song was worried. Sister Ming had just come back and left again.
"It's almost noon, and I haven't had time to eat."
"It's still raining, and it's hard to hold an umbrella while driving. What should I do if I get sick?" An looked at the back of the prince driving the car, feeling unspeakably worried. She didn't know why the prince was driving the car himself.
On the way back, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and God's face changed immediately. When we went out in the morning, it was just a few light raindrops, but now it is pouring with rain, accompanied by lightning and thunder. Xiao Ming in the carriage can feel the impact of the heavy rain. Coolness.
It was better for her in the carriage, but Shi Tingyu, who was driving the carriage outside, was unlucky and was soaked in the rain. The rain was pouring down and he could hardly open his eyes. Because of the heavy rain, it was more difficult for the carriage to move. He could only try his best to wave. Holding the whip, he wants the horse to go faster.
He couldn't stop, Xia Wu was still waiting for them.
Xiao Ming looked at the heavy rain outside and had no intention of stopping. She took an umbrella and took the initiative to hold it for Shi Tingyu to make him feel better.
"Go in and sit down." Shi Tingyu shouted amidst the sound of rain. In just a moment, Xiao Ming's clothes were wet.
"I'm fine." Xiao Ming shook her head and stubbornly held an umbrella for Shi Tingyu, saying she wouldn't go in no matter what.
"How long will it take?" The rain was so loud that Xiao Ming had to shout loudly, otherwise his voice would be drowned in the rain.
"Soon."
There was thunder and lightning along the way. After a difficult journey, the carriage stopped.
Xiao Ming stared at the fallen tree in front of her in a daze. The tree was chopped and stretched across the road. Its branches were densely covered, blocking the way forward. She saw that the city gate was in front, but the carriage was blocked.
God, are you playing with me? Xiao Ming thought bitterly, she just wanted to hide the secret of her own space, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Unable to ride horses, they could only walk. Shi Tingyu jumped out of the carriage, carried Xiao Ming's medicine box and headed towards the city gate with Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming struggled to follow Shi Tingyu's pace with one foot deep and one foot shallow. The quality of ancient oil-paper umbrellas was nothing to say. It was raining heavily outside the umbrella and light rain inside. The rainwater flowed down through the umbrella. She had never been so embarrassed, but On the other hand, Shi Tingyu, even though the road was muddy, the rain was pouring, and his clothes were soaked again, he took every step calmly and steadily. He was carrying a medicine box and holding an umbrella, but he still had his hands free to hold Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming was held by Shi Tingyu's big hand. She stared at the strong and upright figure in front of her. She was absent-minded for a moment. Suddenly, she seemed to have returned to her childhood. There was once a warm big hand and a familiar figure holding her. As she moves forward, he will always appear to comfort her and protect her when she needs it most.
Xiao Ming's eyes were blurred and she couldn't open them. She didn't know whether it was rain or tears. This dust-covered memory was so long ago that she didn't want to think about it anymore.
"Beautiful lady, can I ask you to dance?" In the drizzle, under the dim light, the man stretched out his hand to her like a gentleman, his fingers were white and slender, his hair was dripping with water, and his dress was soaked, but he was still not satisfied. Despite his handsome face, his white teeth were shining brightly under the dim light. He just stretched out his hand to her and looked at her with a smile. His smile was like the winter sunshine warming her heart.
That picture was forever fixed in Xiao Ming's memory. It was too precious. Xiao Ming didn't want to touch it, and she didn't dare to touch it, for fear that it would fall apart at a moment's notice.
"Yeah!" Xiao Ming stepped into the mud puddle, bringing her back to reality from her memory.
Shi Tingyu caught Xiao Ming who was about to fall in time, and looked at the embarrassed girl in front of him, who was weak but strong, with pity in his eyes: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Xiao Ming shook her head. She had lost her composure just now, and suddenly thought of that rainy night in her previous life.
The two of them walked in tandem for a while before they saw the city gate.
"Master, you are back." Before they reached the city gate, three people came over to greet them, looking at Shi Tingyu and saying in surprise.
"How is Xia Wu?" Shi Tingyu asked Xia Er and others who came to meet him.
"Doctor Min said the situation has improved." Xia Er said in surprise. Dr. Min meant that Xia Wu's life was temporarily saved and she had to wait for Xiao Ming's medicine. Unfortunately, God was not kind and it rained heavily at this critical moment. , Xia Er and others were so anxious that they came out to respond.
