I am cannon fodder, but I can hug thighs

Seeing that Xiao Changle showed no signs of waking up, and Lin Jin seemed to be ready to stay with her, Liu Zhengqing frowned slightly, "When will she wake up? Are you going to stay with her?"

"It seems like this now. It will take her several days to recover like this, right? I'm not sure." Lin Jin couldn't be sure of the time. Xiao Changle had been woken up once before, and she didn't plan to disturb her anymore.

As for nursing, she was the only one who could do it. She didn't expect to have to perform such a major operation, so she never taught Xing'er and Yan Wusheng how to care for patients after surgery.

"You go and rest first, I'll be on guard." Liu Zhengqing didn't want to see Lin Jin torturing him like this. Xiao Changle wasn't worth it. "If there's anything, I'll call you."

Lin Jin was helpless: "How can you take care of a patient after surgery? It's okay. I only come to see you once every half an hour. Besides, I can switch positions with the system. Brother, if you have anything else to do, just go and do it. Professionals should do professional things."

Before Liu Zhengqing could say anything more, Fang Zhining, who came in with a bowl of medicine, mocked him harshly: "You have only learned the basics of medical skills. You'd better not embarrass yourself."

After she finished speaking, she handed the medicine to Lin Jin: "Drink it. I told you that you are weak, now you know that you believe it, right?"

"I believe it." Lin Jin frowned and swallowed the bowl of medicine in one gulp, "Why is your medicine more bitter than the one Huaining made?"

"Different prescriptions have different flavors, and she even seasoned them for you?" Fang Zhining sneered, glancing at Liu Zhengqing who was still standing, "Go away, go away, why are you being an eyesore here?"

Liu Zhengqing looked at Lin Jin with concern: "Ajin, you should take a good rest."

"I know." Lin Jin will stay by his side for the next few hours. "I will be here for the next few days. Brother, please help me pay more attention to the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion. I am afraid I will be too busy."

"Don't worry, I'll have someone get the plaque for you tomorrow." Liu Zhengqing nodded, turned around and left the yard.

Fang Zhining watched him leave before sitting next to Lin Jin: "Did he say who this person is? And what kind of riddle is he talking about?"

"My brother said that he was the one who rescued this girl, and the other one said that it was a mechanical puppet." Lin Jin thought that Liu Zhengqing was so anxious probably because the puppet was rare in the world, and he never thought about ghosts and gods.

Fang Zhining had a hunch that there was something strange about this mechanical puppet. He felt that Liu Zhengqing couldn't be the kind of person who would care about such a small thing. Even if it was a good thing, Liu Zhengqing had seen all kinds of treasures. How could a mere puppet make him so confused?

But she couldn't figure it out, so she could only shake her head and put the matter aside.

Snow began to fall in the capital city in the evening, and now it had turned into heavy snow. Except for the more firelight in the fields, the whole capital city seemed to be covered with snow and was silent.

Fang Yuzhu sat by the window admiring the snow. It was not impossible for the Cui family to let Cui Xian marry Li Shiyi, but she didn't want Cui Xian to marry him blindly, as Cui Xian would surely be subject to rumors.

"Madam, it's late. You are pregnant now, so you should go to bed early." The maid came in with hot water, wet a towel and helped Fang Yuzhu wash her hands.

Fang Yuzhu did not respond. She was still thinking about Cui Xian's marriage. Thinking of the various possibilities that might arise after Cui Xian married Li Shiyi, she felt that this was not a good match and that it would be a compromise if she married him. She did not want her good friend to suffer such grievances.

"Li Shiyi..." Fang Yuzhu leaned her head to think, "I remember that he has a sister who is taking the imperial examination this year. I heard that the two siblings have a very good relationship. It seems that I have to go to Tingyu Tower tomorrow."

Today, the marriage between the Cui and Li families was suppressed by her. She still had to meet the Li family to decide whether the marriage would be successful or not.

Fang Yuzhu got up and sat beside the bed, took off her coat, and waited for the maid to help her wash her feet before lying down to rest. Before going to bed, she did not forget to remind her: "Tomorrow after I go to court, you should send a note to the Li Mansion, saying that Li Sanniang has been in Tingyu Tower for many days and has not returned home. She misses her brother and invites Li Shiyi to Tingyu Tower for a small gathering."

She has to go and meet Li Shiyi in person.

The maid nodded in agreement, put two new hot water bottles in, blew out the candle, and then tiptoed out.

It was the coldest time of the year, and snow fell in many places in Daxia, even in Jingzhou in the south. In order to resist the cold, every household, even the restaurants and inns, were sealed tightly.

"Girl, it's snowing." The woman in the yellow dress brought in a hot water bottle and stuffed it into the quilt to warm it up. "It's so cold, don't read. It won't be too late to read tomorrow."

The woman put down the book in her hand. She had just caught a cold a few days ago and was coughing badly at the moment: "Ahem, I'm just killing time. I'm sorry that you have to follow me for such a long distance. You should have left home and started a family a long time ago."

"Without the young lady, I wouldn't be here today. Young lady, please don't say such things." She took the ginger tea and tested the temperature. "It's time to drink it. It will get rid of the cold and make you feel better faster."

"I'm not that weak." The woman frowned and dodged the ginger tea. She actually hated ginger the most. "It's okay not to drink it."

"Young lady!" The maid stomped her feet, "Don't act silly. How can you be so willful at this time? We still have at least a month to get to the capital."

The woman paused, as if she had thought of something, and was a little distracted, with a complicated smile on her lips: "When we get to the capital, you can live a good life. I will sell my body to you and find you a new identity. I can't let you live like this forever."

The snow in Jingzhou was not heavy. It was called snow, but it was actually as fine as willow catkins. She opened the window despite the other party's obstruction and looked at the sky. Some of the snow fell on her face, feeling cold and icy. "In the end, fate plays tricks on us."

"Why are you sad again, girl? It's all in the past. Everything is fine now. When we get to the capital..." She suddenly stopped talking and pulled the corners of her lips forcedly. Even if she got to the capital, it might not be possible to go back to the way it was before.

It's like a dream.

The snow fell all night, covering up the traces of the day and the sorrow.

Lin Jin and Fang Zhining took turns to observe Xiao Changle's condition all night. Because Xiao Changle touched her wound unconsciously, Lin Jin directly tied her hands with a restraint belt. Those who didn't know would think that Xiao Changle was imprisoned.

"You tied this knot well." Fang Zhining yawned. Although she and Lin Jin took turns to rest, they didn't sleep well. They were afraid that something might happen, so they didn't dare to sleep too deeply. "If it weren't for you, she would have died."

Lin Jin shook his head: "If there is no system, I will die even if there is one."

Fang Zhining laughed out loud. Because he didn't sleep well, he didn't have much appetite in the morning. He just sat next to Lin Jin with a bowl of porridge and ate: "Do you want to eat?"

"I don't want to eat. I have no appetite." Lin Jin was similar to her.

"You have to eat even if you don't have an appetite. You have to stay alive." Fang Zhining fed her a spoonful of food. He yawned continuously as if he hadn't woken up yet. "I don't know who was so cruel to this little girl. I think she is only 28 years old."

Although you don't need to be soft-hearted when taking someone's life, but it's really a shame to not just kill them immediately...

"That person must still be in the capital, brother will definitely find her." Lin Jin said with certainty. No matter whether this girl has any relationship with Liu Zhengqing, Liu Zhengqing will definitely not let her go so easily.

"If he offends Liu Zhengqing, he is unlucky. If he dares to offend Liu Zhengqing, he is brave." Fang Zhining didn't know who to pity for a moment. "I know Liu Zhengqing must have many enemies, but I really can't guess who this one is."

When Liu Zhengqing was young, he had been to many places and offended many people. However, Liu Zhengqing was now an official appointed by the imperial court and he was not a coward, so many people did not dare to seek revenge.
