After Yun Xi checked Yuan Ling's pupils and mouth, she turned to Lin Jiayi and said: "This poison has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Even some rare medicines may not be able to cure it, but you are lucky, I can help you." Lin Jiayi looked at her pale mother, then at Yun Xi, and said with some hesitation: "Is what you said true?"
Yun Xi chuckled: "Of course I won't lie to you, but there are conditions for my helping to treat your mother."
Lin Jiayi said quickly: "No problem, as long as I can do it, I agree!"
"Jiayi..."
Yuan Ling looked at her daughter and shed a few tears.
Seeing this, Yun Xi hurriedly said: "Don't worry too much, the two of us won't embarrass you. My conditions are very simple. First, we want to rent a house temporarily; second, we want you to help us find a job."
Work, any job is fine, but preferably a chef or something like that."
Yuan Ling and her daughter were stunned for a long time when she said these words. Lin Jiayi opened her mouth and said at a loss: "That... cook?"
Yun Xi put her hands on her hips: "Don't look at me like this, my cooking skills are amazing!"
Li Zixiao nodded aside. Although she didn't like to praise Yunxi, her cooking skills were indeed very good, especially her control of the heat.
If not, she would not have met Yun Xi back then.
Lin Jiayi still felt a little unbelievable and asked: "Just... just that simple?"
The reason why she reacted like this was not because Yun Xi's request was too difficult to fulfill, but because her request was too simple.
The doctor at the medical center said that he would have to collect a hundred thousand spirit yuan before he could treat me.
Yun Xi and Li Zixiao looked at each other, and the former smiled and said: "For us now, these two requests are important enough. But before you agree, you might as well see the effect of the treatment first."
Lin Jiayi asked: "Then...how should the two sisters be treated?"
"Wait for me here, don't follow me."
Yun Xi opened the door and walked out.
Five minutes later, Yun Xi walked in holding a bowl.
She held the bowl in one hand and handed it to Lin Jiayi: "Let your mother drink it and try it."
Lin Jiayi held the bowl and looked at the orange liquid with a little red in it.
It looks like a medicinal solution, but Lin Jiayi smells it not much different from normal juice.
She took a careful taste, and after making sure there was nothing wrong with it, she walked over to her mother and sat down.
Before feeding her mother, she looked at Yun Xi again. Yun Xi put her hands behind her back and said with a smile: "Trust me."
We have only known each other for less than an hour, but this sister named Yun Xiao can make people feel at ease.
She first helped her mother until she was half leaning against the head of the bed, then scooped up a spoonful of medicine and handed it to her: "Mom, I'll feed you."
"Well..."
Lin Jiayi carefully fed her mother the medicine and slowly drank the whole bowl.
Yuan Ling drank the medicine and felt that it didn't taste like medicine, but more like a fruit drink.
But when she actually drank the medicine, she suddenly felt as if there was a cool stream of water flowing slowly through her body, and her originally dull chest suddenly felt much relieved.
Her eyes suddenly lit up.
Seeing the change in her mother's expression, Lin Jiayi hurriedly asked: "Mom, does this medicine work?"
Yuan Ling slowly raised her hand and pressed it on her chest: "I feel a lot more comfortable."
Lin Jiayi suddenly beamed: "It's...really useful?!"
She turned around, looked at the smiling Yun Xi, and was about to kneel down to thank her, but Yun Xi said first: "There is no need to say thank you, don't forget the conditions I mentioned!"
Lin Jiayi said happily: "I...I'll make arrangements right away!"
She turned back to look at her mother. Yuan Ling smiled and nodded, and a little rosiness slowly appeared on her pale face.
Lin Jiayi couldn't help but be overjoyed by the huge changes in this short period of time. She spread her long legs and ran towards the outside of the house.
Yun Xi smiled back at Yuan Ling and walked out of the room.
Li Zixiao followed Yun Xi and looked at the hand behind her back, which was clenched into a fist.
Lin Jiayi asked: "Sister Yun, which room do you want to live in? Or you can live in both rooms! No charge!"
Yun Xi shook her head: "One room is fine, as for the quilt..."
She threw a money bag and went out: "Go and buy us a new bed."
Without any hesitation, Lin Jiayi directly returned the money bag in her hand to Yun Xi and said, "I can just buy it myself."
Saying that, she didn't give Yun Xi a chance to refuse, and ran out in a hurry. Compared to before she came, her pace at this time seemed much more lively.
Yun Xi shook her head and smiled helplessly.
Smiling, Yun Xi suddenly noticed that Li Zixiao was looking at her.
She lowered her head and looked at the money bag in her hand, and explained: "Hey, I just took it when I was cleaning up the thief!"
Li Zixiao stretched out her hand, and Yun Xi handed the money bag over. However, Li Zixiao did not grab the money bag, but grabbed her other arm.
"What are you doing?"
Yun Xi wanted to break free, but was pulled over by Li Zixiao. She forcefully opened Yun Xi's palm and saw a blood mark on the white and soft little hand.
Yun Xi quickly pulled her hand back, put it behind her back, and said with a playful smile: "A small injury! A small injury! With my physique, I don't have to wait until night to repair it."
Li Zixiao's eyes trembled slightly. She took a deep breath and asked, "Is your blood in that medicine?"
None of them can use their spiritual power now, but Yun Xi can still resolve Yuan Ling's poison. The reason for this can be easily guessed if you think about it carefully.
Yun Xi practiced the Luoshen Heart Technique, and the spiritual power of the Heart Technique was instilled throughout her body. Even if her spiritual veins were temporarily sealed, her body was still baptized by the Luoshen Heart Technique for nearly ten years, and her flesh and blood also had certain purification and healing effects. Seeing that she had been guessed, Yun Xi no longer concealed it. She explained: "Lin Jiayi's mother is very seriously poisoned. With her current physical condition, she will not be able to delay the recovery of our spiritual power in seven days, so we can only do this."
.My blood has a certain suppressive effect on snake venom. No detoxification is needed. I only need to help her survive for another seven days, and I will be able to save her."
She scratched her head: "It's just a little blood. I have strong energy and blood, so I don't lack it."
Even if he cannot use his spiritual power, it is impossible for a spiritual person to get into trouble just because of a minor injury. For Yun Xi, this little bit of blood is really not worth mentioning.
But Li Zixiao felt very uncomfortable when she saw the wound. She said coldly: "You don't have to save her, she can do something herself."
Yun Xi knew that she was talking about selling a house and buying medicine.
She patted Li Zixiao on the shoulder and said sincerely: "If I really chose not to save him, we wouldn't have known each other in the first place."
"Let's go and see which room is better."
Li Zixiao stopped where he was, looking at Yun Xi's free and easy back, silent for a moment, and then followed.
"You can rent two rooms."
"I can't afford two beds, and it's cold today, so it would be warmer if two people slept together."
"Then don't come near me."
"Hey! Whoever you are talking about seems to be relying on you. There are a lot of people who want me, Yun Xiaoxi, the beauty of Tianling School!"
The two talked like this and finally decided on a smaller room.
Lin Jiayi didn't come back so soon. Yun Xi thought about it, talked to Yuan Ling a few times, and then started to clean up the room.
Li Zixiao followed Yun Xi, watching Yun Xi set up bed boards and clean tables and chairs... She was obviously a young lady, but she did these housework without being unfamiliar or repulsive.
After Li Zixiao watched Yun Xi busy for a while, he followed her example and rolled up his sleeves and started working with a rag.
Fortunately, the room was not dirty and seemed to have been cleaned carefully, so Yun Xi and Li Zixiao wiped the room clean without much effort.
After washing the rag for the last time, Yun Xi took her hands away from the cold bucket. Her two little hands were now red, her palms were itchy, and her whole hands seemed to be exuding heat.
Yun Xi sighed while rubbing it to relieve the itching: "This water is really cold."
In the past, when there was spiritual power flowing through her body, she would not feel cold. But now that there is no spiritual power, she has returned to her ordinary life.
Li Zixiao lowered her head and glanced at her hands. She felt that the temperature of the water was quite good, it didn't feel too cold, and her palms didn't turn red.
Yun Xi carried the bucket, opened the door, and was about to go out to pour water, when she suddenly found snow-white goose down floating in the yard.
"It's snowing."
She said softly.
When Li Zixiao heard this, she turned around and saw white snowflakes falling in flakes. The ancient eaves were already covered with a thin layer of snow and frost. She looked at Yun Xi's back and felt that if Yun Xi walked into the snow
It should be very beautiful in the field.
Then Yun Xi walked to the stone steps and poured the water. The sewage washed onto the snow, melting the recently accumulated snow into ice water.
"Look, the snow is gone!"
Yun Xi turned around and said in a coquettish voice.
I really want to beat her!
The corners of Li Zixiao's eyes twitched and he clenched his fists tightly.
……
……
When another layer of white snow fell on the ground, Lin Jiayi came back carrying two big bags.
"Sister Yun, Sister Li."
She saw Yun Xi and Li Zixiao sitting outside enjoying the snow, and hurriedly said hello.
"I bought a quilt. It's thick and very warm at night."
"Okay, thank you."
Yun Xi stepped forward, took the bag, and took it back to the room to make the bed.
Lin Jiayi followed and asked: "Sister Yun, are you here to work?"
You are renting a house and looking for a job. What is it if you are not a worker?
"That's right. Why, have you found a good job?"
Yun Xi asked while spreading the quilt.
"I'm looking for him, but I don't know many people. Everyone's family is in a tight situation and can't afford to hire someone."
Lin Jiayi's face looked a little embarrassed. She had just said it was very simple, but she didn't expect that she would be so unreliable in practice.
Yun Xi was not surprised by this. Lin Jiayi looked only fifteen or sixteen years old. It was just a try to ask her to find a job. It would be okay if she couldn't find it.
"It's okay."
She thought about the money bag she had picked up, and the money in it would be enough for her and Li Zixiao to use for a week. In fact, there would be no problem. Even if she didn't ask, Lin Jiayi would probably take the initiative to cover their meals.
It's just that they have to stay here for a week, and they can't practice during this week, and they don't have mobile phones. It would be a bit boring if they don't find something to do.
Yun Xi suddenly thought of the small cart she saw when she was looking for a rag, and asked: "What did your family do before your mother was poisoned?"
Lin Jiayi said: "Before, I mainly relied on collecting rent from tenants, and my mother would go out and set up a street stall every day."
"Set up a stall? What are you selling?"
Lin Jiayi looked at Yun Xi, whose eyes were brightening, and explained in a low voice: "When it's hot, we sell barbecue, and when it's cold, we sell it in boiled water."
Yun Xi clapped her hands: "That's just right, I'll help you sell it!"
The little girl was stunned for a while, then opened her mouth wide.
"Eh——?"
……
After Yun Xi's persuasion, Lin Jiayi finally agreed to let Yun Xi take the cart out for business. It wasn't that she didn't believe in Yun Xi's skills, but it was a bit too shabby to find such a job for her benefactor.
.
Just looking at Sister Yun’s appearance, she seems to be very interested in this.
Lin Jiayi touched her little head, with a look of confusion on her face. Do powerful people always have some strange habits?
Yun Xi didn't pay much attention to Lin Jiayi's reaction. After she discussed everything, she agreed with Lin Jiayi to buy some ingredients and start her working life tomorrow.
At night, everyone felt a little hungry. Yun Xi touched her belly and couldn't remember how long it had been since she felt hungry.
"Sure enough, when people become stronger, they always lose something. It wasn't until I experienced this that I realized it. Before, I lost too many worries."
Yun Xi sat at the door of the room, looking at the white snow, looking lost, and letting out a heartfelt sigh.
Li Zixiao stood up, returned to the room, and closed the door.

Yun Xi smiled and shook her head, got up and walked to the kitchen. Lin Jiayi was already busy cooking. She just went out to buy some meat, and tonight's meal will be richer.
"I'll do it."
Yun Xi said.
When Lin Jiayi heard this, she waved her hands repeatedly: "How can this be done? Sister Yun, you are your benefactors, how can you let your benefactors cook?"
"I told you not to worry about this. I just want to cook. You may not believe it, but in terms of cooking skills, I have never lost to anyone."
Yun Xi is particularly confident.
"But..."
"Stop it, let me do it!"
Yun Xi put her hands on Lin Jiayi's shoulders, pushed her aside, looked at the ingredients in the kitchen, and thought about what to cook later.
Lin Jiayi stood aside, always feeling a little uncomfortable if she did nothing, so she said: "Then let me help cut the vegetables!"
"I'll chop the vegetables."
Li Zixiao walked in from outside.
"..."
Lin Jiayi looked at Yun Xi on the left and Li Zixiao on the right: "Then... then I will wash the vegetables."
The kitchen is not small. Lin Jiayi walked aside and washed some vegetables. After she finished washing, Yun Xi looked at the vegetables and said to Li Zixiao: "Cut them into shreds."
Li Zixiao picked up a kitchen knife from the chopping board, weighed it twice, and after finding the feeling, started cutting vegetables for the first time in her life.
Waving the knife like a shadow, the sound of "chop chop chop chop..." sounded in the kitchen, and Lin Jiayi looked at Li Zixiao's hand in astonishment.
Li Zixiao cut vegetables so fast that she couldn't even see the up and down strokes of the knife. The pile of green vegetables was cut into thin strands in a very short time.
"This... was this cut out by a human?"
Lin Jiayi's eyes widened. It was the first time she saw someone cutting vegetables so finely and evenly.
Yun Xi looked at Li Zixiao's knife skills and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you will be my royal vegetable cutter from now on."
