"Go, go, go. When I'm done, I'll call you."
In this (space), Yun Xi could conjure pills and use them at will.
Nonetheless, in the kitchen in real life, Yun Xi still needed to put on an act and boil these Chinese medicines with pots and pans. This was to cover up the fact that she got the pills from her (space).
Zhou Lin picked up the faint scent of herbs from the study and felt extremely at ease. He then relaxed his mind and entered the study to read.
Time was short. and the task was heavy.
Based on Yun Xi's conditions at the moment, it was impossible for her to recover the ointment used in the modern era by a ratio of 1:1. She could only tear off some items with modern logos and bring them over for Zhou Lin to use.
"Stretch out your leg."
After Yun Xi tidied up the remaining medicinal residues in the kitchen, she took her half-finished product and walked into the study.
Ever since the Zhou family's old master found his private letters in his study, Zhou Lin would always lock the study every time. This time, he unexpectedly left a small gap in the study. Firstly, it was to make it convenient for him to smell the medicinal herbs that gave him peace of mind, and secondly, it was to wait for someone to come in and look for him.
"Oh, okay."
Zhou Lin extended his leg toward Yun Xi. Yun Xi, on the other hand, groped around his leg for a long time to make sure that there were no other wounds.
The young girl's small hand was soft and boneless. As Yun Xi's hand moved back and forth on his leg, Zhou Lin's breathing gradually became heavier.
"Ah!"
A scream came out of Zhou Lin's mouth. "What's wrong?" Yun Xi teased, "When you were letting your imagination run wild, why didn't you think that your knee would still hurt?"
It turned out that Yun Xi saw Zhou Lin's expression just now. That was why she used more force to apply the ointment in her hand, wanting to teach this man a little lesson.
"I..." Zhou Lin thought, 'I didn't...'
That said, saying that would make it seem as if he was revealing what he wanted to hide. In the end, for the first time, Zhou Lin was lost for words.
Yun Xi placed some of the "made" pills in front of the man, instructing him to take as much as he could for each meal and to take them on time.
"Okay."
Zhou Lin suddenly stood up from the chair in the study, not caring about the pain in his leg. He wrapped his two long arms around the woman in front of him and hugged her warmly.
"Thank you. It's good to have you."
Yun Xi was stunned. She did not expect the man in front of her to say such a thing.
"You..."
Those words caught her off guard. Yun Xi hurriedly escaped from the man's study and returned to her room.
Despite that, the room that Yun Xi returned to was Zhou Lin's room, after all. Yun Xi could still feel the smell of that man lingering around her nose.
Yun Xi tossed and turned on her bed, not closing her eyes for a long time. After an unknown period, she finally fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, she was woken up by a commotion outside.
It turned out that Yun Lian, who had been chased out by Old Master Zhou, had returned.
Hearing the commotion outside, Yun Xi felt a little frustrated. She had not slept well last night. Now, she could only go out with two dark circles under her eyes to see what had happened.
"Little Uncle, I'm here to look for my sister." The person who opened the door was Zhou Lin, who was dressed neatly. He saw Yun Lian, whose hair was messy, standing at the door and saying that she wanted to see his sister. "What do you want from Yun Xi?"
"I..." Yun Lian looked at Zhou Lin and hesitated for a moment. She still wanted to tell Yun Xi about the matter in person.
"Can I go in and see my sister?"
"I'm right here. Haven't you been chased out by Old Master Zhou? Why did you come back to see me again?"
Yun Xi was still grumpy from not having enough sleep. Her tone became very irritable. "Sister, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have burned down the Zhou family's kitchen. I don't want to return to the village alone. I want to be with you. Go and plead with the Zhou family's old master to let me continue to stay here!"
It turned out that early in the morning, Qian Yun had woken up early to urge her son to send Yun Lian home. After all, Qian Yun felt annoyed just by looking at Yun Lian.
Zhou Mo was more or less a mama's boy. He did not dare to disobey his mother at all. He could only put on his clothes early in the morning and bring Yun Lian to the station.
