The Pretty Peasant Wife

After everyone had left, Cheng Xi went over to bolt the door, and helped Xu Sanlang wash up so that he could lie on the bed properly. Only then did he finally have the chance to calm down and take a breather.

After tidying up properly and lying on the bed, although he couldn't fall asleep, Xu Sanlang's sudden injury would require at least ten days to fifteen months of rest before he could do anything. He didn't know if he could keep the chores in the restaurant.

Thinking about it here, Cheng Xi was especially angry at Yu Zhaocai, causing them to provoke such an unexpected calamity for no reason.

Xu Sanlang slept for a while before waking up, the wounds on his back had started to ache, and he didn't fall asleep as quickly as before. He happened to hear the sigh from Cheng Xi lying on the bed, and thought that Cheng Xi was worried about the injuries on his body, so he comforted him, "Small injuries, don't worry."

Cheng Xi replied helplessly: "My small injuries are also injuries, I need to recuperate properly. I'm worried about the job in the restaurant, and whether I'll lose it or not, after all recuperating will take up too much time."

Hearing Cheng Xi's words, Xu Sanlang also frowned, and then said: "Didn't Young Master Yu say that we can do things here? If we can't stay in the restaurant anymore, then come here, I was injured because of him."

After hearing that, Cheng Xi frowned even more as she asked, "Do you know what does he do? How many good people could run a gambling den? You almost lost your life because of him tonight. Who knows how many more things like this will happen in the future? Too dangerous, no. "

Xu Sanlang replied, "Didn't he say it was an accident today?"

Cheng Xi curled her lips and replied, "I think that this kind of accident would happen from time to time. Seeing the old doctor who has come to treat you today, I reckon that she has dealt with this kind of situation many times before, we cannot take this risk."

Xu Sanlang wanted to say more, but the words were stuck on his throat when they stopped. He did not really care about the danger at all, but he suddenly remembered that he was no longer the same as before, he still had his wife Cheng Xi, and his wife was still young. He had to rely on his wife, so nothing bad must happen to him.

When he thought about how Cheng Xi had been busy throughout the night, and how he probably even received a shock earlier, Xu Sanlang said with a pained heart, "Let's rest early. We can talk about these matters tomorrow. The manager of the restaurant is not bad, tell them that everything should be fine."

Butler Xu was not a heartless person, ever since he knew that they were related to Zhao Family, his attitude had always been good. The only problem was that the chefs at the back of the restaurant might not be able to make it, since it was all because of Yu Zhaocai and he had a lot of people under his command, he could just ask them to help out.

With an idea in her mind, Cheng Xi was finally at ease by quite a bit. Her tiredness and sleepiness assaulted him, and she quickly fell asleep.

Because he was worried about the injuries on Xu Sanlang's body, Cheng Xi's sleep was not very peaceful. After a while, he would wake up and take a look at Xu Sanlang's condition, to see if there were any signs of fever.

Finally, it was morning. Cheng Xi was afraid that she would wake Xu Sanlang up, so she carefully got out of bed. Only then did she come to observe Xu Sanlang's situation.

Perhaps it was because the medicine had been added to it to help it sleep, but he slept soundly. He did not wake up at night, and there were no signs of fever or infection.

Just as Cheng Xi was preparing to go out, there was a knock on the door. Afraid that Xu Sanlang would be woken up, Cheng Xi quickly went over and opened the door, signalling for the person outside to keep quiet.

The servant outside the door hurriedly lowered his voice and whispered, "Young Master had me wait here to take care of the two nobles, do you need me to bring hot water for you?"

Cheng Xi looked at the wooden bucket beside the man, shook his head, and said, "I'll do it myself. Go and help boil the medicine, and also prepare some food.

"Yes," the man replied with a smile. "This little one has already instructed them to wait for a while, madam. I will be sending them over shortly."

Cheng Xi nodded, and continued speaking, "Call your young master over, tell him that we have to settle this debt properly."

The man looked suspiciously at Cheng Xi, but still replied respectfully, "Yes, this lowly one will go and see if master has gotten up yet." With that, he turned and left.

Cheng Xi herself carried some hot water and entered the house. After a simple wash, he went to look at Xu Sanlang's situation. She did not expect Xu Sanlang to already be awake, and was tilting her head to look at her.

Cheng Xi sat on the side of the bed, threw aside the blanket to check on Xu Sanlang's injuries, and said, "I still woke you up, how do you feel? Does the wound still hurt? "

Xu Sanlang shook his head, seeing the unconcealable fatigue on Cheng Xi's face, he asked with a pained heart, "I'm fine, my face is so bad, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Cheng Xi casually replied, "I'm not used to being in a strange place, let me check your injuries."

Opening up the cotton, he looked at the red wound, it looked even more terrifying than last night, but luckily it was powdered by the medicine given by the doctor yesterday, so there was no more blood, so Cheng Xi took out the porcelain bottle given by the doctor yesterday and bandaged it again.

Xu Sanlang wanted to stand up by himself, but Cheng Xi hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. Staring at him, he scolded, "First, don't make it difficult for me, don't make the wound bleed again."

Xu Sanlang felt that he wouldn't need to lie down with this small injury, but seeing Cheng Xi's eyes on him, he decided to obediently continue lying down.

After that, Xu Sanlang obediently let Cheng Xi take care of him washing up, drinking some medicine and eating his meals. After that, he himself was extremely shocked, and the thought of getting injured in his heart actually starting to feel good.

After breakfast, everything was ready, and the two of them were waiting for Yu Zhaocai inside the house.

Just when Cheng Xi was about to lose patience and was about to rush out to look for someone, Yu Zhaocai finally rushed over with his servant girl.

Seeing Cheng Xi's dark expression, she hurriedly went forward and smiled, "Yesterday, you made it too late, so you woke up too late. My benefactor's wife, please forgive us, it's all those dog slaves, and you all called me young master earlier, have you eaten?"

Hearing Yu Zhaocai's weird address, Cheng Xi felt awkward and said, "My name is Cheng Xi, my husband is Xu Sanlang, please do not let my benefactor come to visit you, I feel extremely uncomfortable hearing that."

Yu Zhaocai said, "Why do you feel uncomfortable calling him benefactor?" Just as he finished speaking, he received Cheng Xi's gaze, and hurriedly changed his words, "Hmm, it's indeed quite twisted, let's just call him Brother Xu's Sisters Xu, Mrs Xu."

Cheng Xi was too lazy to argue with Yu Zhaocai, she went straight to the point, "Since my husband was injured because of you, I believe you will take responsibility, right?"

Yu Zhaocai replied, "Of course, you can just stay here to recuperate peacefully. No, the environment here is not good, it's better to go to my place to recuperate, I'll get people to arrange things right now."

Cheng Xi stopped her, "There's no need, we should return to the Ruyi Restaurant to recuperate our injuries. Arrange for two people to follow and take care of our husband as well, and take care of the rest while we do that. Do you have any objections? "

Yu Zhaocai replied, "Of course not, although you guys are recuperating after returning to the restaurant, how can it be as convenient as my house, why not come to my house?"

Seeing that Cheng Xi's expression did not loosen at all, Yu Zhaocai directly said to Xu Sanlang who was lying on the bed, "Brother Xu is really not considering coming to my place? "As long as you come, my general director of the Lucky Faction will be yours."

Xu Sanlang's reply was rather short, and he said indifferently, "I'll listen to my wife."

Yu Zhaocai once again shifted his gaze onto Cheng Xi, and in the end, agreed helplessly, "Alright, wait a moment, I'll go arrange it right away."

Yu Zhaocai's arrangements were quite thorough. He prepared a huge pile of supplementary medicine and food, and then found a few people to use a stretcher to carry Xu Sanlang onto the carriage. Yu Zhaocai personally sent the two to Ruyi Restaurant.

When the carriage arrived at the back door of the restaurant, it was not even noon yet, and Butler Xu and the rest were in the backyard preparing for the day. When they saw Cheng Xi push open the door and enter, they greeted with a smile, "Why are you here so early?"

After that, he saw Xu Sanlang on the stretcher carried by the big men, and was about to ask what was going on, but when he saw Yu Zhaocai, who came in from the back, he was immediately confused, and angrily shouted at Yu Zhaocai: "What are you guys trying to do?"

When Cheng Xi heard Butler Xu's words, the corners of his eyes twitched. He had already said that Yu Zhaocai was definitely not a good person.

While he was ridiculing in his heart, he did not idle around. He hurriedly explained the situation to Butler Xu and the others.
