Xu Nanxing was in a good mood as she walked up the mountain yesterday. She had seen a medicinal garden near here yesterday.
There are several rare medicinal herbs planted inside.
Although Shen Sijue's illness cannot be cured for the time being, he can try to nurse it back to health first.
With this thought in mind, Xu Nanxing walked towards the medicine garden. There happened to be an old man working in the medicine garden. She put her hands on the fence and looked inside with a bright smile.
"Old man, can you sell me some dried medicine?"
The busy old man raised his head and glanced at her with wrinkled eyes, "If you don't want to sell it, come in and help me work, and I'll give you the medicine."
Xu Nanxing rubbed her aunt's painful belly, pursed her lips and thought for a while before nodding, "Okay, no problem!"
Although her stomach hurts, she has nothing to be pretentious about if Shen Sijue, a grown man, washes the dirty sheets for her.
Xu Nanxing thought she had become very skilled at doing this in the past few years, but she didn't expect that this old man was more demanding than anyone she had ever seen.
Time flies by...
Shen Sijue told Zhang Ping to pay attention to the news of the Xu family, and then held another meeting. When Xu Nanxing didn't come back, he went out to look for him.
Not far from the farmyard, several middle-aged women were gathering together and chatting. When they saw Shen Sijue passing by, they all stopped him with bright eyes, and a dozen pairs of eyes looked up and down unscrupulously.
"Is the young man married? My sister-in-law will introduce you to one!"
"Look what you said, he is so handsome and you need to introduce him. Hey, my sister-in-law has a pretty little niece who still works in a big company and doesn't have a boyfriend yet!"
Sister-in-law Zhang came back from picking wild vegetables and happened to encounter Shen Sijue who was under siege. She quickly came over to smooth things over, "She's already married, so just give it up!"
The people around him suddenly sighed.
Sister-in-law Zhang looked at Shen Sijue's cold face and said with a smile: "Look for your wife. I see she is helping to collect Chinese medicine at Old Man Li's house in the east. That old man is not easy to get along with, so go find her quickly!"
"grateful."
Shen Sijue's face was tense, and he hurriedly left after thanking him, his eyes cold.
She is not well yet, where should she go and what should she do?
Thinking of this, Shen Sijue's eyebrows furrowed deeper and his steps quickened a bit.
At this time, the Chinese Medicine Garden.
Xu Nanxing wiped the sweat from her forehead, straightened up, exhaled softly and hit her sore waist. The old man was not polite at all and actually asked her to weed the entire two acres of land.
I don't know if she can rush back before Shen Sijue's meeting ends.
"Don't be lazy, I won't give you medicine until you're done!"
The old man fanned his straw hat, and the old man sat in the shade and directed Xu Nanxing, "There are still some weeds that haven't been removed over there."
He sighed secretly and continued to work with his head down in resignation.
Suddenly, a big hand grabbed her wrist.
Xu Nanxing raised her head in surprise, and saw the man's tense and displeased jawline. Her eyes lit up, "Husband, is your meeting over?"
Shen Sijue had a calm and handsome face, his eyes fell on the girl's little face that was reddened by the sun, and his dark eyes suddenly narrowed in displeasure.
He turned sideways to block the direction of the sun and said in a cold voice: "Why are you here if I don't want you to have a good rest?"
Xu Nanxing pursed her lips, "I've had a good rest. Yesterday I saw a medicine garden here, and I thought that even if your disease cannot be cured, it can be recuperated."
The girl's voice was very soft and soft, and Shen Sijue was slightly stunned.
There was a hint of disbelief in his deep eyes.
He remembered what Xu Nanxing said, "She can also protect him."
From the time he can remember, he has been trained as the heir of the Shen family. He needs to be strong and powerful. The rise and fall of the Shen family is his responsibility.
He had never thought about such an impossible thing as who would protect him.
The petite girl in front of him spoke words of protection for him for the first time, and she actually acted to take care of him.
He endured physical discomfort and the old man's difficulties just to give him a dose of Chinese medicine.
Shen Sijue's chest vibrated slightly. He couldn't express his current mood. He just silently took the tool from Xu Nanxing's hand and took over her work.
"Husband, are you shy?"
Xu Nanxing looked at the suspicious redness at the base of Shen Sijue's ears, squinted his eyes, curved his red lips and smiled, his bright little face full of cunning.
"Shut up!"
Shen Sijue shouted in a low voice.
In the past, Xu Nanxing might have been scared by him, but now...
"Husband, if you take out the medicine, the weed next to it will be there."
"..."
Xu Nanxing couldn't help laughing as she followed Shen Sijue and taught him with a smile. At this moment, she deeply felt the joy of her old man teaching her.
Xu Nanxing raised his eyes and looked at the old man. The old man only squinted at Shen Sijue and lay down again. He slowly shook the cattail leaf fan and said, "Girl, you teach him well. I will check him when the time comes. If he fails, I won’t give you any medicinal materials.”
Xu Nanxing responded crisply, turned around and poked Shen Sijue on the waist, "Did you hear that, little coolie, do your best."
