Chapter 6
Xu Baozhu went out to clean up for herself and then came back.

As a result, he saw the man with his hands up, but he couldn't bend his waist no matter what, and he couldn't reach the wound on the foot.

After all, he overestimated himself. Not only his ankles were injured, but his waist was also injured, so he couldn't bend down too much.

Xu Baozhu wanted to laugh at him, but raised her eyes to meet his miserable appearance, and choked on the words.

"No one has asked me to serve you like this before. You got a big deal." Xu Baozhu said while giving him medicine.

Zhu Yun lowered his head in shame.

"I'm really sorry to make you suffer."

Xu Baozhu didn't take it seriously, "You are a patient, and I am a doctor, so I should, not to mention that you have done me and my father a big favor today, compared to that, it is nothing."

……

Old man Xu built a total of four earthen houses, one for medicinal materials, one for her, one for the kitchen, and one for himself.

Zhu Yun originally lived in the herb room, there was no bed there, just some hay was laid out as a mattress, it was okay a few days ago, but it is already autumn now, if he sleeps there again, I am afraid it will be like this Old injuries have not healed, and new diseases are added.

What Old Man Xu meant was that her house was considered their new house. They got married today, and so many people were watching, so she also went here.

"I'll live next door." Zhu Yun said proactively.

"Father collected all the hay, where did you go to sleep, just lay on the ground?"

"That can't be..."

He looked at the bed, which was covered with red quilts, and the whole room was well-arranged, and there was a pair of red candles burning on the table.

"Forget it, anyway, you already lay down when you passed out today, so stay here." Xu Baozhu said, raising her hand to get the quilt from the side, "You and I share the same bed, we don't care about each other. disturb."

Even so, Zhu Yun still felt that this would damage the reputation of the girl's family, so he hurriedly refused, "Daytime is a helpless act. I am awake at this time, how can I do this."

He made a gesture to go outside.

"Come back to me!" Xu Baozhu grabbed him and pulled him back, the force made it a little stronger, and both of them fell on the bed, which affected Zhu Yun's waist injury, and he frowned in pain.

"You think I'm willing. After all, we're married in a fake way, and I haven't slept in the same bed with any man yet. I'm at a disadvantage anyway!"

Zhu Yun blushed like a burnt eggplant, not knowing how to strike up a conversation.

"Everyone in this village knows that I have recruited a door-to-door husband-in-law. There is nothing wrong with living in the same house. You have to live in the medicinal material house again. If someone visits and sees it, they will think that my father and I have abused you. And you, that would really ruin my reputation, pedantic nerd."

"If you really behave properly and sit upright, you and I don't have to stick to these forms. I suffer a bit. You are so hurt. If you feel sick in the middle of the night, you can help in time."

Zhu Yun has read so many books of sages and sages, but facing this speech at this moment, he can't say a word.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xu Baozhu thought that he had acquiesced, and took the initiative to divide the place. "You sleep inside, I sleep outside, tomorrow I have to get up early to make breakfast for my father, and I have to go to the mountains to collect herbs, so it will be more convenient."

After all, without waiting for anyone's reaction, he lifted him up and lay down on the side.

Probably because I was too tired, I fell asleep after a while.

She slept very well this time, but when she woke up, she was quite embarrassed. She found that she had crossed the line at some point, and was still hanging on Zhu Yun's body.

He has been taking medicine these days, and the smell of medicine on his body is very strong, but for people who are used to the smell of medicine, they don't feel anything, but feel at ease.

"Uh... that... I..." Xu Baozhu hesitated, trying to explain something, but after looking at the situation, she was quite self-aware.

"Well, I don't sleep well, I'm used to being alone..."

"Yeah." Zhu Yun nodded.

Perhaps it was a guilty conscience, so that Xu Baozhu felt that Zhu Yun did not believe her words, and under that plain face, she was probably thinking "I see how you make it up!"

She hurriedly sat up from the person, "It's getting late, I'm going to prepare breakfast."

After saying that, he ran out the door.

Zhu Yun caressed the still warm chest, glanced at the shadow that had disappeared at the door, and couldn't help laughing softly.

……

"Father."

"Hey, I'm up." Old man Xu bent over the stove and was busy working on the stove. Hearing the sound, he looked back at Xu Baozhu, and said, "Hurry up and tidy up and wash up before eating."

"Ah."

Xu Baozhu took the hot water that had been boiled aside and poured it into the wooden basin, looked down and saw the mud on the old man's feet, and said, "Father, are you out?"

"Well, I'll go and burn incense for your mother and tell her that you're married."

When the old man Xu mentioned Xu Baozhu's mother, a gentle smile appeared on his rough and wrinkled face like old tree bark, and his eyes, which had been tortured and chaotic by life, also became radiant.

"Why don't you call me a piece?"

Xu Baozhu looked at the twilight outside and it was about to rain, and complained: "The mountain road over there is difficult to walk, you said something will happen halfway, but what should we do?"

The old man Xu laughed until he lost his eyesight, "There are so many things, I have been walking that road for more than ten years, and I can know how to walk with my eyes closed, and I can clearly see what is on both sides. It won't be hard for me."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, in the future, if you go to a farther place, you have to take me with you."

She is not familiar with the place here, so the old man is the closest person, she really doesn't want anything to happen to him.

"Why didn't I realize that you, little girl, are so annoying before?" Old man Xu joked.

Xu Baozhu put away the towel, poured the water out of the house, turned around and said, "Just say you should?"

"Of course I did." Old man Xu said, "Oh, you remind me of your childhood."

He gestured with his hands, "At that time, you were such a little kid, you loved to cling to me and chased after me every day."

As he talked, his smile darkened, "But when I grow up, I don't like to talk anymore, and I don't like to talk to Dad about many things."

"Father knows that you are uncomfortable because of hearing the gossip in the village, but..."

"Oh dad." Xu Baozhu interrupted him, "It's nothing like that, it's just a child. When I grow up, there is always a sensitive period of youth, and I just don't like to talk."

"What is the sensitive period of youth?"

Xu Baozhu realized that she had talked too much and didn't know how to explain it to him, so she simply changed the topic.

"Let's go eat quickly, I'm hungry."

As he spoke, he picked up the plate and walked towards the main room.

Old man Xu looked at her back, in a daze.
