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

Hearing the footsteps, Cheng Shubai stood up abruptly and turned around.

The moment he saw Su Xiaoxi, Cheng Shubai showed a look of surprise, "Are you back?"

With that said, Cheng Shubai put the things he picked up on the table.

Through the candlelight, Su Xiaoxi could clearly see what was in Cheng Shubai's hand. It was a round and plump grape.

Grape? !

Su Xiaoxi looked at Cheng Shubai in front of her with wide eyes, and couldn't believe her eyes for a moment.

"Where did you get these grapes?" Su Xiaoxi asked.

"It's in the valley. I saw it when I was passing by. I thought it was quite fresh, so I brought it back to you." Cheng Shubai replied, speaking at a steady pace, without any strangeness.

When Su Xiaoxi heard this, she suddenly felt as if something was stuck in her throat, and she choked a little.

She never thought that Cheng Shubai would bring her such a gift.

There was an inexplicable warmth in her heart, and when she looked at Cheng Shubai, Su Xiaoxi was moved.

In this world, apart from her parents, Cheng Shubai was probably the best to her. Su Xiaoxi walked to the table and picked up the grapes Cheng Shubai brought. It was really tempting.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi's slightly red cheeks, Cheng Shubai curled his lips and smiled.

"Thank you, Cheng Shubai." Su Xiaoxi thanked her sincerely.

She didn't expect that Cheng Shubai would go to the mountains to pick grapes for himself.

This is not a simple matter!

When Su Xiaoxi thanked her, Cheng Shubai suddenly said with a straight face, "You are my wife. These things are what you should do. You don't need to say thank you."

"Haha, okay." Su Xiaoxi smiled awkwardly and stuffed the grapes into her mouth. They were sour and sweet, so delicious!

After lunch, Su Xiaoxi lay on the couch to rest, while Cheng Shubai continued to read medical books by the window sill.

Until late at night, Cheng Shubai had not rested.

Seeing how diligent and hard-working Cheng Shubai was, Su Xiaoxi couldn't help but sigh in her heart. He practiced hard every day and even forgot to eat and sleep.

"Cheng Shubai, I'm sleepy." Su Xiaoxi couldn't help interrupting Cheng Shubai and said.

"Well, you go to bed and sleep. I'll read a book for a while." Cheng Shubai said gently.

"it is good."

So, Su Xiaoxi went straight to the bed, covered herself with a quilt and fell asleep.

……

The next morning, Su Xiaoxi woke up leisurely and looked at Cheng Shubai, who was no longer beside him. She saw that the prescription Su Xiaoxi had studied before had been taken by Cheng Shubai to decoct it.

I guess you can drink it today, right?

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxi felt relieved. She knew that Cheng Shubai must also know about this kindness, so he would try his best to help her.

However, thinking about what Cheng Shubai said to her last night, Su Xiaoxi still had some doubts in her heart, and felt that none of this was a coincidence.

In other words, she didn't think all this was just a coincidence, but Su Xiaoxi couldn't guess the specific reason for the time being.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

There was a knock on the door, and Su Xiaoxi sat up. After getting dressed, she walked to the door and looked outside through the peephole. She saw the village chief and his wife outside the door.

"Uncle and aunt?" Su Xiaoxi shouted.

"Xiao Xi, can we go in?" Wang asked outside.

Su Xiaoxi immediately agreed.

After the door opened, Su Xiaoxi looked outside the door.

"Why are you here?" Su Xiaoxi asked.

At this point, they should be in the village, why did they come here?

"Xiao Xi, you said you were sick yesterday, so you came back today to have a look." Wang smiled kindly, staring at Su Xiaoxi closely with her eyes full of love and concern.

After that, he looked Su Xiaoxi up and down and said, "You have lost a lot of weight. Are you working too hard?"

They also knew that Su Xiaoxi had been very dedicated to the health of everyone in her village recently.

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Su Xiaoxi smiled slightly and did not deny Wang's words.

During this time, Su Xiaoxi discovered that this family was very kind.

They never ask for anything in return, they just hope to do something for the villagers, especially when they see how dedicated they are, they will feel bad if they don't repay them.

Therefore, Su Xiaoxi took advantage of her free time to study various medicines for treating diseases. Of course, these were done in secret without any leakage.

"Girl Xiaoxi, thank you for your hard work." Wang, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but speak at this time.

"Auntie, why are you here?"

When Wang said this, Su Xiaoxi suddenly realized that these two people must have come to visit her because they were worried about her condition.

After all, she had been refusing all visitors on the grounds of physical illness.

"You kid, you didn't tell me you were so sick, which made us worry for so long in vain." Wang said reproachfully.

Su Xiaoxi smiled, "Aren't you worried?"

"You kid." Wang said, her eyes already wet, and she reached out to hold Su Xiaoxi's hand, "Xiaoxi, it's really hard for a girl like you to suffer like this."

"Hey, your parents died early. Fortunately, you met us. Otherwise, you might have suffered a lot of hardships."

"Auntie, I'm fine, everything is over!"

When Su Xiaoxi mentioned her parents, her eyes darkened.

"Silly boy." Wang sighed and patted Su Xiaoxi's shoulder, silently comforting her.

Perhaps because the depression in her heart was finally relieved, Su Xiaoxi quickly returned to her former lively and cheerful mood.

Looking at Su Xiaoxi, Wang and the village chief looked at each other, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, you and auntie should go back first. I will come find you another day."

"Okay, then we'll come see you tomorrow!" Wang said, preparing to leave.

Su Xiaoxi hurriedly stopped the two of them, "No, uncle and aunt, I'll take you out!"

After Su Xiaoxi finished speaking, she closed the door and caught up with the two of them.

Wang and the village chief walked side by side. After walking out of the yard, they returned to their homes.

Along the way, the village chief and Mr. Wang didn't speak. They just kept their heads down and hurried on. They occasionally chatted for a few words, which seemed very dull.

At the moment, Cheng Shubai was taking decoction and medicine in the seriously ill area and had no time to worry about things outside.

When Su Xiaoxi came out of the house, Cheng Shubai was still busy.

Su Xiaoxi stood at the door of the courtyard and stared quietly at Cheng Shubai in the distance. The face from last night suddenly appeared in her mind. The expression on that face made her feel familiar.

But no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't remember when she had seen it.

At this time, Cheng Shubai turned around and returned to the hospital, and Su Xiaoxi quickly gathered her thoughts.

Cheng Shubai walked in and saw Su Xiaoxi standing at the door of the courtyard, surprise flashing between his brows.

"Is something wrong?" Cheng Shubai asked.

"Uh, it's nothing." Su Xiaoxi shook her head, and then changed the subject, "Um... Mr., thank you for last night. I slept very well, and I slept until dawn."
