Hearing this, the man frowned and was a little unhappy. Did this mean that he didn't want him to get close to her?
He was about to speak, but Jing Yan's next words silenced the man.
"After I marry the young master, it is no longer convenient for me to go out to practice medicine. If nothing happens, the young master will be my last patient. I want to take care of the young master and recover as a doctor instead of as his wife and concubine."
There is some truth to this.
After becoming his woman, it is really inappropriate to practice medicine in public.
"allow."
In the following days, Xie Zhong did not make too many moves and kept a certain distance from her.
But some things can't be deceived. Today's men no longer have any scruples and have completely regarded Jing Yan as their property.
Jingyan just pretended not to see it.
As for Wang Yun'er, she came every day to pick herbs with her and listened to all the little things that happened when she and Xie Zhong got along, and she told them all in detail.
On this day, the two of them came to the cliff again. There were more herbs here and they were more precious.
"Sister Jingyan, my mother came back from town today and told me something. Do you know what it was?" Wang Yun'er smiled harmlessly and tilted her head to ask Jingyan.
Jing Yan was about to pick an herb and paused, then asked casually, "What's the matter?"
"We are looking for someone." Wang Yuner stood up and patted the dirt on her hands: "It is said that even the county magistrate came to our town in person, just to find that person."
"The Lijia Village next door has been searched, and it will be our Xiaoyang Village soon."
"Sister Jingyan, do you think the person they are looking for is Mr. Xie?" Although it was a question, Wang Yun'er's tone was very determined, and there was a hint of excitement.
The herbs have almost been collected and it’s time to finish.
Jing Yan also stood up, smiled, and seemed to be very happy: "If this is true, Mr. Xie is indeed of high status, and me marrying him is a blessing from my previous life."
"I would also like to thank Miss Wang for telling me the news."
Wang Yun'er's face suddenly froze. How come this woman has no shame at all!
With such a lowly status, is she worthy of marrying such a good man?
It’s simply wishful thinking!
The remaining guilt in her heart disappeared after Jing Yan said those words.
"Sister Jingyan, you don't have to say thank you. To say thank you, I should thank you, sister."
Jing Yan looked puzzled: "What does Miss Wang mean by this?"
"It means-" Wang Yun'er smiled but suddenly changed her expression and pushed her hard.
Wang Yun'er had deliberately guided Jing Yan closer to the cliff, squatting on the ground for a long time to collect herbs. She could not stand firm immediately when she stood up. Wang Yun'er pushed so hard that although Jing Yan would not fall off the cliff, it would only take a few seconds. steps away.
Obviously, Wang Yun'er was not prepared to push just once. Before Jing Yan could react, she used all her strength to push hard again.
This time, Jingyan had no luck and successfully fell off the bottomless cliff.
"Sister Jingyan, don't blame me." Wang Yun'er's voice was trembling. She looked at her hands and couldn't stop trembling.
It's one thing to plan for multiple days, it's another to actually kill someone.
"My mother saved your life and allowed you to live for two more years. This is just to give you back."
"Also, sister Jingyan, don't worry. Every year at this time, I will burn paper money for you, sister. I won't let you live your life with sex while living underground."
After Wang Yun'er said these words, she hurriedly left here. If she was willing to look down from the cliff, she would know that some people would not die so easily.
Jingyan was holding on to the vine with one hand, but the vine was slowly breaking at a speed that could be seen with her naked eyes.
Jing Yan's face turned pale, and large beads of sweat dripped from her forehead.
Due to the huge inertial momentum, Jingyan felt that the bones of the arm holding the vine had been misaligned. She used her other hand to take out the dagger hidden at her waist with difficulty.
Then, using all his strength, he stabbed the dagger hard at the rock wall, and the dagger was deeply pierced into the rock wall.
At this moment, the vines were completely disconnected.
The dagger now bore Jing Yan's entire body weight and began to slide downwards, making a violent "click" sound when it collided with the rock wall.
Jing Yan endured the severe pain all over her body, found the right moment, and jumped in.
Halfway up the cliff is a cave.
Jingyan fell at the door of the cave, and blood was flowing out from her thigh.
What she was holding tightly in her right hand was the ruined dagger, with blood dripping from it.
Jing Yan's consciousness was blurred, but she knew that she couldn't sleep. Once she fell asleep, she would never wake up again.
She got up and walked hard into the cave step by step.
The cave is not big, but there are many things inside, including stone tables, stone benches, and a stone bed covered with quilts.
Jing Yan finally staggered to the stone bed and sat down with difficulty.
She looked down at her left leg, which was bleeding continuously. When she jumped down, the incomplete dagger pierced her leg directly, creating a wound of about ten centimeters.
Jingyan breathed quickly and closed her eyes, trying to suppress the strong feeling of lethargy. After a moment, she opened her eyes.
This wound is too deep and long. Simply apply it with herbal medicine, and it will heal too slowly. The supplies here will not last long.
She opened the medicine box on the stone bed, took out a small porcelain bottle containing antipyretic pills, poured out a few pills, and swallowed them.
Now that she is both a doctor and a patient, she naturally cannot use Ma Fei Powder to relieve pain.
Jing Yan's face was pale, without any color.
Looking down at the horrific wound, the hand holding the embroidery needle trembled slightly.
She took a deep breath again. The long-term pain was worse than the short-term pain. She couldn't delay any longer!
The moment the embroidery needle pierced her flesh, Jingyan's pupils dilated and her expression instantly twisted. The stinging pain penetrated deep into her internal organs and made her scalp numb.
She bit her lip tightly to prevent herself from making any sound.
Jingyan kept moving her hands, and the clothes on her body were already soaked with sweat, as if she had been soaked in water.
Soon, Jingyan sewed up the wound.
Finally, with her last bit of strength, she took out another medicine bottle from the medicine box and sprinkled the powder inside on the sutured wound.
After doing this, Jingyan completely passed out before returning the medicine bottle to its place.
…
When Jing Yan opened her eyes, the sun was almost setting.
It was already dark inside the cave.
If it weren't for the severe pain in her left leg, Jing Yan would have thought she would have died.
She took out the fire stick and lit the oil lamp.
