Hu Caiwei smiled sweetly and said: "Eat slowly, don't swallow."
This simple sentence made Lu Wuyuan's heart warm and his eyes sore.
The Lu family is a famous family and pays attention to etiquette. Family members do not take food from each other. In the aristocratic class, sticking your chopsticks into someone else's bowl is a rude and vulgar behavior.
But ordinary people don't pay so much attention to it, and they pay more attention to caring for each other when getting along with family and friends.
"Wu Yuan, I don't think you can do anything. You shouldn't be a young man who has to be waited on all day long."
Lu Wuyuan was frightened when he heard this. He was afraid that his identity would be exposed. Hu Caiwei drove him away and made up a lie: "I have been weak and sick since I was a child. I can't do many things, so I don't know how to do many things."
"No wonder, I just said you were weak and you are still not convinced."
"Um...I don't like people saying that to me."
Hu Caiwei smiled and said, "I remember."
Lu Wuyuan's heart was agitated again. She said she would remember the lie she made up casually, and she was both moved and ashamed.
"Wu Yuan, don't be brave next time."
"What?"
"You obviously couldn't carry two buckets of water just now."
"that is because……"
Hu Caiwei smiled and said: "I know, what about men's self-esteem?"
In fact, Hu Caiwei used to have low self-esteem. After meeting Brother Fu, it was Brother Fu who always encouraged and cared for her. Only then did she come out of her low self-esteem and become enthusiastic and cheerful.
Likewise, she has to play such a role today.
"Sister Caiwei, if I'm so useless, will you not want me?"
Hearing the childish tone, Hu Caiwei suddenly felt funny: "This tea picking, tea drying, tea baking, including buying tea, are all smart jobs. They are not rough jobs, and they don't require too much physical effort. Women can do them, and you can do it too.
Come on."
Lu Wuyuan was unhappy: "Don't compare me with women."
Hu Caiwei chuckled: "You think so, aren't you a woman?"
"No, I'm a man. It's embarrassing to be inferior to a woman."
"Men and women have their own strengths. Women can sew and cook, but men can't. According to you, does that mean they are inferior?"
Lu Wuyuan was speechless, but felt that her simple words were very convincing.
Hu Caiwei smiled and said: "Women can give birth to children, but men can't. Are they inferior?"
Lu Wuyuan blurted out: "But men will help women give birth to children."
Hu Caiwei was confused: "What?"
Lu Wuyuan was referring to the happy things on the bed. How could he dare to say it outright: "I mean that only when a man can take care of a woman can a woman have children with peace of mind." He then said without hesitation: "Sister Caiwei, you are giving birth to a child."
Have you ever had children? It sounds like you understand very well."
Hu Caiwei's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment: "That's nonsense. I, Yunying, am not married, how can I have a child?"
Seeing her shy look, Lu Wuyuan liked her very much and pretended to be stupid: "Can't you have children without marrying someone?"
Hu Caiwei raised her hand and slapped his head: "You are so stupid!"
Not only was Lu Wuyuan not angry, he was also beaten sweetly by her, and he said, "Don't I understand? Sister Caiwei, why don't you tell me."
"I'm telling you shit! If you don't know, ask your mother!"
"My mother has passed away." Lu Wuyuan said secretly in his heart, I'm sorry, mother, I really didn't mean to curse you, you will live a long life.
Hu Caiwei's expression changed, and her tense pretty face slowly softened: "Wu Yuan, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to mention your sadness."
Lu Wuyuan waved his hand: "It's okay, how long has it been?"
This made Hu Caiwei feel even more guilty. She wanted to comfort her but didn't want to get into more trouble with the matter, so she said instead: "Are you full? How about I go cook two more dishes for you."
There was no profit or money involved, but Lu Wuyuan felt the most sincere care.
Take the famous actresses in the brothel as an example. If he were not the second young master of the Lu family and was not generous, depending on whether they would still be kind to him, they might just turn around and sweep him out.
When Hu Caiwei saw that Lu Wuyuan was silent, she thought he was embarrassed to speak, so she smiled and stood up.
"Look at how weak you are. You need to eat more to be stronger."
Hu Caiwei said and left, specially going to cook two more dishes for Lu Wuyuan.
After dinner, night fell. Lu Wuyuan watched Hu Caiwei go back to the house. After a while, the lights went out.
This is the life of ordinary people. There is usually no activity at night. Going to bed early can save lamp oil, and secondly, you have to get up early to work the next morning.
As for Lu Wuyuan, who is accustomed to night life, to use his mantra - take time off.
There was really nothing to do and I couldn't sleep, so I went to see if the tea leaves that had been soaked by the rain could still be saved. I watched the carefully picked tea leaves turn into waste.
He was not a person who cared about things, but he felt heartbroken.
Even more so, one can imagine how distressed Hu Caiwei must have been at that time.
The scene of her standing motionless in the rain reappeared in his mind. The more Lu Wuyuan thought about it, the more guilty he became. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't look away. He wanted to beat himself up.
I thought of rescuing it first and asking someone to buy the tea leaves at a high price in a few days. Hu Caiwei would definitely be very happy then.
Thinking of her surprised expression when the time came, Lu Wuyuan felt happy.
I did it as I was told, so I moved the wet tea leaves on the bamboo dustpan back to my house. I also moved a drying rack and placed it in a ventilated space. If there is sunshine tomorrow morning, take it out to dry immediately. How much can be done?
Just make up for it as much as possible.
Time passed by silently, and it was late at night before he realized it. After doing all this, Lu Wuyuan was already tired and had a little soreness in his back, but he felt a sense of solid satisfaction in his heart.
Just as I was about to fall down on the bed and sleep, I suddenly noticed that the lights in Hu Caiwei's room were on. I was curious, it was already midnight, why were I up?
Will it be easier to get up?
After waiting for a while, the lights in Hu Caiwei's room were still on, so it didn't take so long.
Lu Wuyuan couldn't bear his curiosity, so he walked across the yard towards Hu Caiwei's room, wanting to see what she was doing in the middle of the night.
Suddenly she stopped, what if she misunderstood that I wanted to peep at her and coveted her.
On weekdays in the brothel, he wished that everyone would know his name as the Demon King, but now he didn't want Hu Caiwei to misunderstand him like this.
Just as she was hesitating, she heard a cough coming from inside the house. Is she sick?
A loud banging sound came from inside the house. Lu Wuyuan didn't care too much and immediately opened the door and entered the room: "Sister Caiwei!"
Under the dim light, I saw Hu Caiwei falling to the ground. Someone ran over to help her. He touched her arm through the spring shirt and immediately noticed that something was wrong with her body temperature. When she saw her, her cheeks were red, her eyes were squinted, and she looked dizzy.
Shen Shen.
Lu Wuyuan touched her forehead and felt it was very hot. He was at a loss what to do and shook Hu Caiwei: "Sister Caiwei, what's wrong with you?"
Hu Caiwei's body swayed softly like a willow branch, but she didn't respond at all. Instead, she fainted under Lu Wuyuan's shaking.
No matter how stupid Lu Wuyuan was, he knew that Hu Caiwei was seriously ill and her forehead was burned like this, which would kill someone.
I was so scared that I didn't know what to do, so I just hugged her tightly: "Sister Caiwei, don't scare me."
My head suddenly became clear and I didn't know what to do. The doctor knew.
He immediately picked up Hu Caiwei and went out, running all the way to find a medical center.
In the middle of the night, except for those places with fireworks, the doors of normal shops have been closed, and the streets are quiet.
When Lu Wuyuan first arrived in Yangzhou, he was not familiar with the place. He just ran quickly along the streets, his eyes quickly passing by the plaques on both sides of the streets.
Finally he saw a medical clinic. He walked up to it and knocked on the door, shouting loudly: "Doctor! Doctor!"
Under Lu Wuyuan's loud shouting, a lazy voice finally came: "Who is it in the middle of the night?"
"Doctor, my sister's body is very hot. Please take a look quickly."
"What time is this? Come back tomorrow morning."
Lu Wuyuan got angry as soon as he heard this. He kicked the shop floor violently, and the door was broken in a few times. Someone broke in, turned over the table and lifted the chair: "If you don't hurry up and take a look, I will knock your door down."
The shop was smashed!"
This is the arrogant and domineering nature of the Demon King. He just changed his gender when he met Hu Caiwei today, which does not mean that he has really changed his gender.
Such a loud noise immediately frightened the doctor: "Stop smashing it, stop smashing it, it's coming, it's coming."
In the darkness, a lamp slowly moved down from upstairs, and Lu Wuyuan shouted: "Hurry!"
"coming."
As soon as the light shone in front of the shop, the doctor saw that the door of the shop was smashed and the tables and chairs in the shop were overturned. He exclaimed: "This is too much. It's really lawless."
Lu Wuyuan saw that the doctor didn't care about the patient but paid attention to other things. He stepped forward and grabbed the doctor's collar and said fiercely: "Don't show me the patient's condition yet!"
Lu Wuyuan's ferocious and brutal temperament immediately shocked the doctor: "Okay, okay, let go first."
Lu Wuyuan snorted and let go: "If you don't like it, I'll kill you."
As soon as the doctor's hand touched Hu Caiwei's pulse, and then touched Hu Caiwei's hot forehead, his expression immediately became serious: "Quickly, quickly, get her to the bed."
Lu Wuyuan laid Hu Caiwei down and saw the doctor taking away the light and walking away, and asked: "Doctor, where are you going?"
"I'm going to prepare something for rescue."
Lu Wuyuan was originally worried, but after hearing this, he became even more panicked. He took the initiative to walk over, held the lamp for the doctor, and asked: "Doctor, what disease does my sister have?"
"This is a febrile disease. It's so hot that you need to cool it down first. Otherwise, even if you cure it, your brain will be burned out and you will become a fool."
"Okay, okay."
The doctor prepared the tools and used the Shixuan bloodletting method to cool Hu Caiwei's temperature. Then he took out a pill from the box and said, "This is Angong Niuhuang Pill, which is used to calm down the fever and open the mind. Can you afford it?"
"
"I am Lu Wuyuan, the second son of the Lu family, please use it quickly!"
The doctor looked at Lu Wuyuan's servant clothes: "It doesn't look like it."
Lu Wuyuan took the hidden jade and slapped it on the table: "Do you know how much silver this jade is worth? It's enough to buy your shop."
It's just that I used too much force and the jade broke into two pieces.
Jade is a precious thing, and the wearer is rich and noble. The doctor still has some discernment and said softly: "Sir, this jade is broken!"
Lu Wuyuan grabbed the doctor's neck directly: "I'm going to leave my words here today. If this person makes a mistake, let alone your shop, even your life will not be saved!"
A poor man could not pretend to have such a domineering and ruthless tone. The doctor responded repeatedly, twisted the Angong Niuhuang Pill into small pieces, and gave it to Hu Caiwei with water.
After struggling for more than half an hour, the scalding temperature of Hu Caiwei's body finally subsided.
Lu Wuyuan finally felt at ease and asked, "What disease does she have?"
"Sir, I just said it was a febrile disease."
"How could you get such a severe disease?"
"Um... overworked, cold, or warm evil may invade."
Listening to the doctor's words, Lu Wuyuan secretly thought that it must be the heavy rain during the day...
…
All day long, Lu Wuyuan was responsible for brewing medicine and taking care of Hu Caiwei. He did many things for the first time. In order to do it well, he forced himself to be careful.
This is nothing, the key is that Hu Caiwei has been feeling groggy and shows no signs of getting better.
In the evening, after taking good care of Hu Caiwei and taking the decoction, Lu Wuyuan, who had not slept for two days and one night, finally couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep leaning on the bedside.
At midnight, Xie Fu quietly came to Caiwei Tea Shop to see what was going on.
In fact, he came over last night and saw Lu Wuyuan and Hu Caiwei dining together. Moreover, Lu Wuyuan took off his fancy clothes and put on ordinary clothes.
Out of curiosity, she hid in the dark and listened to the conversation between the two, trying to understand what happened between them. When she heard Lu Wuyuan call her Sister Caiwei, she was greatly surprised.
Lu Wuyuan's personality is that of a man, and the most powerful ability of a woman is the ability to turn a man's hardened steel into soft fingers.
As for the sudden idea of letting Lu Wuyuan get in touch with Hu Caiwei at the beginning, it was also because although Lu Wuyuan came into contact with a lot of women, they were basically women from brothels. It is not an exaggeration to say that women from brothels are vixens.
It's not that Xie Fu despises brothel girls, it's that brothel girls have come into contact with too many men of all kinds and have a way of dealing with men with ease.
In other words, the women Lu Wuyuan comes into contact with are all hypocritical, but Hu Caiwei is a real person and a real woman, and she will not use false emotions to deal with others.
Things like marriage depend on Yue Lao for one thing, and secondly, it depends on whether there is fate.
Thinking about two people with completely different identities, backgrounds, living habits, and personalities and hobbies, Xie Fu didn't even know if he was crossing paths randomly.
He came here today just to see how the two of them got along, and if it didn't work, he would cut the thread.
The yard was quiet, except for the light in Hu Caiwei's house. Xie Fu stood at the door curiously and listened, but there was no movement in the house, so he called softly: "Caiwei."
Seeing that no one responded, Xie Fu opened the door gently and entered the house. As soon as he entered the house, he smelled a strong smell of medicine in the air. Who was sick?
