It was already the second day that Li Ling's fever completely subsided.

When he woke up, there was a half pot of chicken soup simmering in the earthen pot, and a few hard-boiled wild eggs were still buried in the half-extinguished fire.I don't know how long the chicken soup has been simmering, and the rich aroma permeates the whole hut, making people move their index fingers.

Li Ling, who hadn't eaten for a day and two nights, was woken up by hunger. Before he could open his eyes, he heard his stomach growl, and was almost so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back.As soon as he stood up clutching his stomach, he met Wen Fei's gaze, and his wheat-colored face flushed suddenly—the other party probably heard his stomach growling, and felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Wen Fei didn't say anything, but pointed to the half bamboo tube next to the fire and said, "Are you awake? Then drink this first."

Li Ling smelled the smell of chicken soup in the air, and his mind was full of chicken soup. Hearing Fei told him to drink something, his first reaction was also chicken soup.Immediately his eyes lit up, he took the bamboo tube excitedly and took a big gulp.

However, it was only when the food was in his mouth that he realized that what was contained in the bamboo tube was not delicious chicken soup, but bitter medicinal juice... Li Ling's expression froze immediately, and he was entangled in whether he spit out the medicine in his mouth or swallowed it. Extremely.In the end, I found that the medicine contained more bitterness, so I had to swallow the medicine with a painful face, and didn't dare to ask at the end.After all, he was sick, and it must be kindness for him to boil medicine for him.

Wen Fei waited for a day, finally saw this scene, only felt satisfied.But Li Ling had just taken a sip, and she didn't intend to let him go, so she pointed at the bamboo tube and said, "Drink more, finish it, you're still sick."

Li Ling's face immediately turned bitter, but he knew it was good or bad, so he held his breath and closed his eyes to swallow the medicine.

After waking up, Li Ling was given a stomach full of bitter medicine. Li Ling's whole body was wilted, and his stomach, which had been screaming just now, was silent.As someone who has been there, Wen Fei felt that he might not have the appetite to eat for a while.

Li Ling really calmed down, but he also recovered faster than Wen Fei expected.Probably because he hadn't eaten for two days and was really hungry. After a brief loss of appetite, he smelled the aroma of chicken soup in the air, and gradually he was aroused again.He raised his head to look at Wen Fei, and then at the half pot of chicken soup in the earthen pot, his eyes looked a little pitiful.

Sick people always want to make up for it. Wen Fei is not a stingy person. After noticing Li Ling's gaze, he said: "You can pour the chicken soup yourself. It's just that we came here fleeing, and everything on our bodies was washed away by the water. There is not even a little salt here, and the chicken soup smells good."

The chicken soup without salt was tasteless and oily, both Wen Fei and Chu Xi felt disgusted.

However, what Wen Fei didn't expect was that Li Ling didn't dislike it at all. He not only finished the greasy chicken soup, but also the chicken, and returned an empty clay pot after a while.At the end, he wiped his mouth and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm too hungry and I finished eating all the meat. But don't worry, I'm in good health now, and I can go out to find something to eat later."

After hearing this, Wen Fei quickly waved his hands: "Farewell. This time is considered lucky. Be careful if you get sick again. There is no medicine we can save you."

Hearing this, Li Ling thanked him gratefully, and at the same time secretly heaved a sigh of relief—although the illness was uncomfortable, but the illness was just right, at least he was left behind after falling ill, and had a temporary place to stay.

The atmosphere in the hut was quite harmonious. Li Ling probably couldn't stay idle. After sitting quietly for a while, he took the initiative to find a topic and asked, "This brother looks unfamiliar, and his accent doesn't look like a local, is it?" Came from out of town?"

Wen Fei ignored Li Ling's call of brother and brother, but since Li Ling started talking, she really wanted to ask him something: "Yes, we are originally from Chang'an, and we ended up here when there was a flood on the way south. I heard you said that you are a local Man, I don’t know where this is? How far is it from Shanghe? How far is it from Jiangzhou?”

Li Ling was very enthusiastic when asked, and immediately replied: "This is the town of Shuangxi, and my family lives in Lijia Village at the foot of the mountain. The distance to Shanghe is quite far, fifty or sixty miles away, Jiangzhou Pretty much the same."

He said, and pointed to the direction of Shanghe and Jiangzhou respectively, which happened to be one left and one right.That is to say, Shuangxi Town, which has never been heard of before, happened to be in the middle of the two places. Wen Fei and Chu Xi were washed by the water, but they directly crossed nearly half of the way.It's just that neither of them thought that the power of the flood that day would wash them away for fifty or sixty miles in one breath.

Wen Fei turned his head and looked at Chu Xi behind him, and reached a consensus in the eye contact - this place is so far away from Shanghe, it is not easy to find the lost guards and Yudong, it is better to go directly to Jiangzhou and let Chu Xi It may be faster for my elder brother to send someone to find him.

After thinking about it, Wen Fei felt confident. She turned around and was about to ask Li Ling if he knew the way to Jiangzhou, but found that this man didn't know how to measure himself at all, and now he was looking behind her. look!

Wen Fei, who deliberately separated Chu Xi from him, frowned, and immediately turned cold, and his tone became bad: "Hey, boy, what are you looking at? Peeping at other people's fiancees will get beaten, you know have no idea?!"

****************************************************************************

After being taught a lesson by Wen Fei, Li Ling became more honest, at least he didn't dare to peek at Chu Xi anymore—the young man had no malicious intentions, but was just curious.Wen Fei kept hiding Chu Xi from him, and he became more curious, so he sneaked a few glances while Wen Fei was not paying attention.As a result, after receiving a lesson, he naturally became honest.

There will be ambiguity in the house of two people, and the atmosphere of the house of three people will only be awkward.

Ever since he found out that Li Ling was peeking at Chu Xi, Wen Fei guarded him like a thief, and at the same time, he also wanted to drive him away again.It's a pity that the rain outside didn't stop, Li Ling happened to be ill and had nowhere to go, so he had to hold back.

Finally, on the third day, the rain outside became less and less.

Seeing this, Li Ling opened the door of the room and stood guard at the door. After watching the rain for a while, he turned around and said to the two of them, "Today's rain has lightened, and it looks like it will stop tonight. I don't know what's going on down the mountain now. Drowning deep or not..."

He was gossiping one after another, and Wen Fei only responded occasionally.But when Li Ling said that the rain would stop tonight, she couldn't help but take a look outside, and saw that the heavy rain outside had turned into drizzle.If the rain continues to decrease, it may really stop at night.Then wait two more days to do some work, and she will be able to take Chu Xi away.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help thinking about leading the way, Wen Fei glanced at Li Ling and asked: "By the way, you said that your family lives in the village at the foot of the mountain. How is your family doing when there is a flood this time? Don't you worry about being here alone?"

Li Ling didn't turn his head when he heard the words, and his voice seemed normal, but also a little sad: "Don't worry. There is no one else in my family except me. Now I am alive and well, and my family will be fine."

Oh, this is another male protagonist whose parents are both dead and helpless.

Wen Fei was not surprised. After a word of consolation, she said straight to the point: "The rain has stopped, and we are about to part ways. We are going to Jiangzhou, and we no longer know the way because of the flood. Do you know how to go to Jiangzhou?"

The three got along for a few days, and even though Wen Fei ignored his answers and Chu Xi didn't talk to him, Li Ling still felt reluctant to part with him.In his heart, he believed that the two were worth making friends, and his home at the foot of the mountain had been destroyed by the flood, so he said immediately after hearing the words: "I have never been to Jiangzhou, but I know how to get to Shuangxi Town. I will go to the town to find out Ask around, someone must know how to get there.”

Wen Fei was silent after hearing the words, but still reminded: "The flood has just passed, so there is probably no one in the town."

Li Ling shook his head and said, "No. The terrain of Shuangxi Town is very high, and the flood has never flooded the town in previous years."

When Wen Fei heard this, he couldn't hold back and asked, "Listen to you, do you often encounter floods here?"

But Li Ling shook his head again: "Not at all. About four or five years ago, the imperial court allocated funds to repair the river embankment, and there has been no water since then. This year, there was probably too much rain, and the embankment collapsed again. That's how it got flooded."

After hearing this, Wen Fei didn't know what to say. After all, when the emperor ordered the embankment to be repaired, she was still acting as Habayashiro.Now that I think about it, I can still remember that the people from the Ministry of Industry swore that the repair of the embankment would be a century-old project, and the imperial court allocated a huge amount of money for it.It turned out to be good now, the river embankment was only repaired for four or five years, and looking back, I don't know whether it was the heads of the officials from the Ministry of Industry, or the heads of the Jiangnan officials.

Like a tacit understanding, Chu Xi, who was behind Wen Fei, also thought of this, and then thought of her elder brother who was a Biejia in Jiangzhou - her second brother was transferred to Jiangzhou three years ago, and the repair of the embankment had nothing to do with him , but now he is afraid that he will not be able to escape the responsibility of breaking the embankment.

Thinking of the emperor's domineering and unreasonable temper, Chu Xi's heart suddenly rose.She was a little uneasy, and looked at the fine rain outside the house, but her hand subconsciously grabbed a corner of Wen Fei's clothes.

Xu Shi rescued each other many times along the way, and before he knew it, Chu Xi gradually became dependent on Wen Fei.

The author has something to say: Wen Fei (Warning): If you dare to peek at my fiancée again, be careful I will beat you!

Li Ling (...): Don't dare, dare not, I know it's your daughter-in-law.
