After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

Su Xiaoxi didn't mind either, lowered her head and continued eating.

After eating, Su Xiaoxi went to prepare the medicinal materials needed for tomorrow, while Cheng Shubai went to catch fish in the river.

These days of hard work have paid off, and now Su Xiaoxi can finally prepare medicine to treat cold cough.

Su Xiaoxi felt particularly excited when she thought that she would be able to save the patients who had been cured by herself tomorrow.

In the dead of night, Su Xiaoxi sat on the bed and looked at the prescriptions and medicine lists, feeling very uneasy.

Will it really succeed this time?

Su Xiaoxi felt agitated, and in the end she could only force herself to close her eyes and stop thinking about it.

Early the next morning, Cheng Shubai went to Su Xiaoxi's residence carrying a basket filled with medicinal materials.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi's energetic appearance, Cheng Shubai secretly praised her.

But as soon as Cheng Shubai walked in, he heard Su Xiaoxi muttering something.

"I hope it will succeed!" Su Xiaoxi murmured to herself.

"What are you mumbling about?"

Suddenly, a cool voice sounded.

"Ah..." Su Xiaoxi exclaimed in fright. When she turned around, she found that Cheng Shubai had appeared behind her at some point. Su Xiaoxi almost screamed.

Why doesn't this man make any footsteps when he walks?

"You...why are you here?" Su Xiaoxi patted her chest, her heart beating wildly.

"It seems I should be asking you this." Looking at Su Xiaoxi's reaction, Cheng Shubai frowned.

"Haha... I'm just too nervous... Hehe..." Su Xiaoxi laughed twice, "It's so early, what are you doing here?"

"Don't you want my help?" Cheng Shubai answered the question.

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxi suddenly realized, "Oh, wait a moment, I'll change my clothes and I'll be fine soon."

Cheng Shubai stood there waiting, his eyes falling on Su Xiaoxi.

Not long after, Su Xiaoxi came out.

Cheng Shubai's eyes were full of affection, which made Su Xiaoxi baffled.

"Let's go!"

With that said, Cheng Shubai walked outside.

This time, Cheng Shubai did not ride a horse.

Su Xiaoxi got into Cheng Shubai's car, and Cheng Shubai drove Su Xiaoxi to the town.

It was already afternoon when Su Xiaoxi arrived in the town. The two bought some rice, noodles, vegetables and meat and returned to the village.

On the way back, the two of them were silent. Su Xiaoxi didn't know what to say to Cheng Shubai, so she didn't bother to say anything and just leaned against the car window and blew the breeze.

Cheng Shubai glanced at Su Xiaoxi and his eyes fell on the medicines in Su Xiaoxi's hand, "What medicine are you preparing?"

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxi looked up at Cheng Shubai, only to find that Cheng Shubai was looking at her with a serious expression, as if he wanted to see through her.

Su Xiaoxi was a little embarrassed, but still replied, "A prescription for treating the plague."

Cheng Shubai nodded without saying anything.

When the carriage stopped in the yard, Su Xiaoxi jumped out of the carriage first and walked directly to the room.

"I'm going to boil the medicine. You pour out the dregs first and bring it in for me to drink later."

After saying these words, Su Xiaoxi quickly ran back to the room, leaving Cheng Shubai standing alone.

Cheng Shubai looked at the closed door with a complicated expression.

After a while, Cheng Shubai brought the medicine residue into the house, but Su Xiaoxi had not come out yet.

"The dregs of the medicine are on the table, drink it quickly!"

After Cheng Shubai finished speaking, he turned around and left.

"Wait!" Suddenly, Su Xiaoxi's voice came, and she also pulled Cheng Shubai back.

Cheng Shubai looked at Su Xiaoxi with an indifferent expression and calm eyes, "Huh?"

"Don't you dislike me?" Su Xiaoxi looked at Cheng Shubai in embarrassment, feeling a little worried in her heart.

After all, the fact that she had a physical defect had been hidden from Cheng Shubai for so many years, which inevitably made Su Xiaoxi feel uneasy.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi's slightly nervous look, Cheng Shubai pursed his lips for a moment, then suddenly stretched out his hand to hold Su Xiaoxi's cold and slender fingers, and kneaded them gently a few times, "Don't be afraid!"

As he said that, he gently stroked Su Xiaoxi's head with his other hand, "Believe me, it will be fine."

This feeling of pampering is very much like a father's touch.

Cheng Shubai's voice was very soft, but extremely firm.

"Why are you?"

Su Xiaoxi looked up at Cheng Shubai blankly, feeling even more confused.

"Because I don't dislike you." After saying this, Cheng Shubai let go of Su Xiaoxi's hand and walked outside.

Su Xiaoxi stood there blankly, taking a long time to digest what Cheng Shubai said.

Cheng Shubai doesn't dislike him. Is this a good thing?

Or should she be grateful that she has such a brother?

No matter what, Cheng Shubai didn't dislike her, and she was always happy in her heart.

Back in her house, Su Xiaoxi began to cook the medicinal soup.

The medicinal ingredients this time were relatively simple, and it took Su Xiaoxi more than two hours to fry them all.

When Su Xiaoxi filled up the medicine soup and was about to go out to look for Cheng Shubai, she suddenly discovered that Cheng Shubai was not in the house.

Confused, Su Xiaoxi opened the door and walked out.

"Cheng Shubai?" I called several times, but no one answered.

Strange, could it be that he went out?

Su Xiaoxi walked out of the yard with doubts.

As a result, when Su Xiaoxi saw the scene outside the yard, her eyes widened instantly.

Cheng Shubai was squatting under an old locust tree in front of the yard, with his back to him, digging the soil with a hoe in his hand.

Seeing this, Su Xiaoxi suddenly had the illusion that she was seeing her brother farming.

"Cheng Shubai?" Su Xiaoxi called tentatively.

"Yes!" Cheng Shubai responded without any pause in the movements of his hands.

"You...what are you doing?"

Su Xiaoxi looked at Cheng Shubai in surprise and asked.

Cheng Shubai, who had always been clean and tidy with an excellent temperament, was squatting on the edge of a field to reclaim wasteland today.

This picture, no matter how you look at it, reveals a sense of dissonance.

"Plant crops." Cheng Shubai was still working hard, but he answered Su Xiaoxi's words.

"Uh..." Su Xiaoxi was speechless and didn't know how to continue talking.

Cheng Shubai's words seemed as if he had never said them.

"What crops do you grow?" Su Xiaoxi couldn't help but asked.

"wheat."

Su Xiaoxi didn't understand Cheng Shubai's intentions for planting wheat this season, but she didn't know why, but a warm current emerged in her heart.

Although she didn't know much about farming, she knew that Cheng Shubai would never let herself suffer.

"Can you take care of crops?" Su Xiaoxi asked after thinking about it.

"will not."

"Uh...then...can you do it if no one helps?" Su Xiaoxi asked again.

"You want to help?"

Hearing Cheng Shubai's words, Su Xiaoxi quickly shook her head and refused, "No, don't get me wrong, it's just a casual question."

Although she didn't understand why Cheng Shubai asked this question, Su Xiaoxi immediately rejected it.
