Qianyu insisted on giving the money to Shopkeeper Xue, "The road is slippery on a rainy day, and you have been delayed all night. Please accept this money and I will buy you some clothes."
He saw that Manager Xue's clothes were covered in mud and blood, and felt a little guilty, but at the moment, he could only take out a hundred dollars.
Shopkeeper Xue looked down at himself and said, "My clothes can be worn again after washing. It's okay. You should save this money to buy medicine for your brother later."
"This……"
"Okay, I'm leaving now. It might rain again if it's too late. Go back and watch the fire carefully to make sure the medicine doesn't get burnt."
After saying that, Shopkeeper Xue left.
Just when Qian Yu was about to turn back, the owner of the drugstore suddenly turned back and said anxiously, "I have been so anxiously paying attention to your brother that I forgot that your sister-in-law came back with me yesterday. When she came back, she said her feet hurt a lot and she wanted to rest for a while before coming back. But she didn't come back last night. Do you want to go look for her?"
Qianyu then remembered that he had not seen Su Xueer that night.
"It's bad." He slapped his forehead, "I'll go look for it now."
Ran away in a hurry.
I also forgot about the medicine I was decocting on the small stove.
The kind-hearted pharmacy owner went to the yard again and helped Qianyu prepare the medicine before leaving.
It didn't rain again today.
The sun shines on the earth and the sky clears up after the rain.
Qianyu searched everywhere nearby, but there was no sign of Su Xueer.
I had to go back home.
When I got back, Chi Rui had already woken up.
Lying in bed, the pain has eased a lot.
Seeing Qianyu coming in, he asked, "Where is she?"
Qianyu lowered his head and remained silent.
Seeing Qianyu's appearance, Chi Rui anxiously asked again: "Where is she?"
"Last night, her feet were so painful that she asked the doctor to treat your legs first. She rested on the spot for a while, and then...then..." Qianyu hesitated, not even daring to look at Chi Rui.
"Just what?" Chi Rui was extremely anxious. He propped himself up with all his strength and tried to get up.
Seeing this, Qianyu hurried forward to lend a hand, helped him up and sat him in the wheelchair.
"Don't worry about me, just go find her." Chi Rui pushed Qianyu out.
"Okay, sir, I'll go look for it again." Qianyu took a breath and went out to look for someone again.
He knew that if he couldn't find it, his son would probably be in trouble.
In the afternoon, Chi Rui sat in a wheelchair, staring blankly at the small courtyard outside the window.
She is washing clothes.
She is cooking.
She is sweeping the floor.
She is chopping wood.
She is making a cotton-padded jacket.
She is drying herbs.
Her busy figure and bright smile can be seen everywhere in the courtyard.
He admitted that he missed her when she was away.
Qianyu came in from the door again. Chi Rui quickly turned his wheelchair and came to him, asking anxiously, "Did you find it?"
Looking at the door, his heart instantly sank into an endless abyss.
Chi Rui's face turned pale instantly, and he gripped the armrests of the wheelchair tightly with both hands. His knuckles turned bluish-white from excessive force. His body trembled slightly, as if he was trying his best to suppress the surging fear and anxiety in his heart.
"How could this happen? How could we not find it?" Chi Rui's voice trembled slightly, his eyes full of disbelief and deep despair.
He turned his head sharply, staring at Qianyu, "Didn't you promise me that she would be fine?"
Qian Yu lowered her head helplessly, not daring to look directly into Chi Rui's eyes full of anger and pain, "Sir, I have searched everywhere I can think of, and there is really no trace of her."
Chi Rui's chest rose and fell violently, and he gasped for air, as if he wanted to expel all the anxiety and worry in his heart. "Keep looking! Even if you have to turn this area upside down, you must find her for me!"
His voice was almost a roar, his eyes instantly turned red, and tears welled up in his eyes.
At night, Chi Rui was alone in the room, and the candlelight stretched his lonely figure.
For the first time in his life, he felt restless.
Every minute and every second of waiting was a torment for him.
He hated himself for being unable to do anything while sitting in this wheelchair.
The morning sun was still warm, but Chi Rui could not feel any warmth at all.
He had no appetite and was only hoping to hear news about Su Xueer.
Chi Rui sat restlessly in the house, feeling very confused.
He looked at the unfinished bright red cotton-padded jacket and imagined how it would look on Su Xueer.
At that time, her face should have been full of happy smiles.
After all, it was her first new dress.
In the evening, Qianyu came back, looking tired and frustrated.
Chi Rui asked anxiously: "Still no news?"
Qian Yu shook his head helplessly and said, "Sir, I have searched everywhere nearby, but I still can't find any trace of her."
Chi Rui held the armrests of the wheelchair tightly with both hands, and his joints turned white from the force.
He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and said, "A person cannot disappear out of thin air. There must be something you missed. Think about it carefully again."
In fact, he was afraid in his heart, because he knew that she was no longer the same Zhao Yunniang, but a girl from another world.
She came into this world suddenly.
He was afraid that she would disappear as suddenly as she had come.
Night fell again, Chi Rui was alone in the room, the flickering candlelight illuminated his sad face.
He thought of Su Xueer's every smile and frown, and his heart was filled with pain and longing.
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Chi Rui was startled and shouted quickly: "Qianyu, go and see if she is back."
Qianyu also hurriedly went to the gate of the yard to open it.
Chi Rui also turned his wheelchair and followed out.
It turned out to be an old man from Murakami who had once received favor from Chiba.
These days, he learned that Qianyu was looking for someone, so he also helped keep an eye out.
The old man said, "Sir, I seemed to have seen a figure in a dilapidated temple outside the city today. She looked a bit like your Sanlang's wife."
A glimmer of hope flashed in Chi Rui's eyes, and he immediately asked Qianyu to push him to the ruined temple.
"Sir, you better wait at home. I'll go take a look."
They all knew in their hearts that they were fugitives.
In his current condition, if he goes out in a wheelchair, he will definitely attract other people's attention.
When the time comes, it will be troublesome if the enemies come to your door.
But Chi Rui insisted on watching it no matter what.
This will also be his first time going out since coming to Fengxian Village.
However, when they arrived at the ruined temple, they found it empty with only some messy footprints on the ground.
Chi Rui's mood fell to the bottom again. Could this be another false alarm?
Where is she?
That night, he looked at the night sky and prayed silently, hoping that Su Xueer would come back suddenly.
