Quick time travel: The system wants me to save the sick girl

Lu Yan returned to his bedroom. The servants had already left. The bitter smell of Chinese medicine was still in the air. They must have finished taking the medicine.

He walked to the bedside. Pei Yanche was still asleep. Lu Yan pulled the quilt for him. "He looks so pitiful."

Lu Yan couldn't get used to sleeping in the bedroom next door, so he came back to check on Pei Yanche and found that he had no intention of waking up. It was already late, so there was no need to trouble others.

So Lu Yan simply lay down on the bed. "It's my bedroom anyway, so you can sleep in it for one night."

The heating here was sufficient and Lu Yan fell asleep in a short while.

I feel dawn.

The child next to him was probably still sick and hadn't woken up yet. Lu Yan got out of bed carefully and found some thicker clothes in the closet to put on.

Then he opened the door and went out.

"Third Young Master, the eldest young master is back today." Zhi Jing is not only a study companion, but also takes care of Lu Yan's daily life.

The eldest young master, Lu Jingyuan, the son of Lu Yan's uncle, heard that there was a batch of important hidden weapons, so he personally escorted them over.

It's been more than half a month, I think it has been delivered safely.

Lu Yan: "Got it."

As he said this, he and Zhijing walked towards the reception room, and as expected, they saw his parents and his uncle's family were there.

The young man sitting next to the uncle was Lu Jingyuan. There was a heroic look between his brows and his eyes were like deep lakes, hiding endless stories.

He has a high nose bridge and slightly raised lips, and he always seems to have a mysterious smile on his face.

Lu Yan first said to his parents, "Dad, Mom." Although his parents were no longer young, they still had charm.

Then he said to the others, "Uncle, aunt, brother is back."

"Well, Xiaoyan, please sit down." said the aunt.

Lu Yancai sat down beside him, and then he learned about the danger that his elder brother Lu Jingyuan encountered on the road. "I hope that elder brother can come back safely."

"Fortunately, everything is fine." Lu Jingyuan's personality is just like his appearance, calm and steady, and meticulous. "Xiaoyan, I brought you something on the way back. I'll have someone send it to you later."

"Thank you, brother."

Lu Yan waited for everyone to have breakfast together. After his uncle and his family left, Lu Yan said to his parents, "Mom and Dad, I found a child in the slums yesterday. I felt sorry for him so I brought him back."

"Xiaoyan wants to take him in?" Lu's mother, Song Wan, was as gentle and virtuous as her name, and she spoke very softly.

Lu Yan nodded, "Yeah, he looks pitiful, and he doesn't look like a homeless child. The clothes he's wearing are expensive, so I guess he got lost."

Father Lu thought a lot. Since the clothes were expensive, he thought that maybe the boy had a good background. If he adopted him rashly, he might bring disaster.

But Mother Lu stopped Father Lu and said, "In that case, it's up to you."

Only after getting permission did Lu Yan leave.

"Madam, why did you agree to let Xiaoyan adopt the child?" asked Father Lu.

Mother Lu patted his hand soothingly and said, "Just think of it as doing a good deed. If there really is a problem, we can still send the person away in time."

"And since my son has told you, he naturally has no intention of sending the person away. Why should we stop him?" Although Mother Lu came from an ordinary family, what she had seen and learned was not simple.

Lu Yan returned to his yard, Pei Yanche should have woken up.

He heard Zhijing talking to him.

"Who are you? Where am I?" The boy's unique clear voice sounded.

Zhi Jing deliberately teased him and did not directly answer "Guess."

"I'm going out, please get out of the way."

"I won't." Zhi Jing blocked the door and looked at the child who was only as big as his waist. "I won't move. What can you do?"

"Zhi Jing." Lu Yan pushed the door and walked in.

"Master."

Lu Yan went over and sat down. "Go out."

"Yes." Zhi Jing secretly made a face at Pei Yanche before leaving, but when Lu Yan looked over at him, he immediately slipped away.

"Do you still remember me? Lu Yan." Lu Yan looked at the young man.

"Remember, you were the one who brought me back?" Although Pei Yanche no longer had any hostility towards Lu Yan, he still looked alert.

Lu Yan nodded, "Well, you were sick, so I brought you back."

"Thank you for saving me. I will repay you in the future. I am leaving now." Pei Yanche found himself after waking up.

Then he looked at the clean and comfortable inner clothes on his body and the clothes prepared for him beside him, as well as the jade pendant on the clothes, which were left to him by his mother. He had never been willing to sell them, even though he was almost freezing to death or starving to death.

But now someone had saved him, given him new clothes, and even didn't take away his jade pendant. Suddenly, he felt aggrieved.

But he also knew he should leave.

Lu Yan poured himself a glass of water and said, "I'm afraid you can't leave yet."

"Why?" The boy looked at Lu Yan warily.

"Look, you drank the medicine I bought for you and slept in my bedroom, leaving me with no place to sleep." Lu Yan took advantage of the fact that the other person was younger and deliberately lied to him.

"I will repay you later," the boy insisted.

"It's actually very simple. How about this: you work for me, and when you pay me back, I'll let you go?" Lu Yan said, "I can provide you with food, drink and a place to stay."

The young man hesitated again and again, "Are you really just working in the mansion?"

"Of course." Lu Yan nodded. In fact, the mansion didn't need such a young child at all, but Lu Yan gave him a reason to stay and spend this cold winter.

The boy nodded, "Okay."

"Well, then you will follow Zhijing from now on and learn more from him." Zhijing is mainly responsible for taking care of Lu Yan, so Lu Yan asked Pei Yanche to follow Zhijing.

"The one who just had an argument with you."

"I know, I heard you calling him." The boy replied.

Lu Yan nodded. "That's good. If you don't understand something, just ask him. If he can't answer you, you can ask me."

Since he had decided to keep the person here, Lu Yan simply let him stay in the side bedroom he had seen last night, which was very close to his bedroom.

"It's lunch time soon. You can go with Zhijing. He has a few more prescriptions. Remember to drink them. They taste bitter, but you can't waste them."

Lu Yan looked at him. Young people are most afraid of bitter things. "Otherwise, I will charge you double the price for the medicine."

"I know. I'm not afraid of hardship." Pei Yanche looked at the man whose tone was a little threatening. It was hard to associate him with the frail and fragile person he met yesterday.

Lu Yan asked Zhi Jing to come in and told him a few words, "You will take care of him from now on."

"Yes, young master." Zhi Jing led Pei Yanche away.

Lu Yan drank his tea slowly and said, "As expected, children are easy to fool. They can be fooled into staying with just a few words."

The system said mercilessly, "Yes, you are the best at fooling people."
