Xie Chaochao opened his eyes again.

I don’t know how long I slept. I moved slightly and felt sore all over, as if I had been run over by something.

If you think about it carefully, it was probably the aftereffect of Su Moqing beating himself.

It will be fine if you just stand up straight.

I moved my hands and felt something wrapped around them.

When she turned her head, she found that Chu Heng had fallen asleep beside her without her knowing when, and was even holding her hand without letting go.

His large palm was warm and tightly clenched, as if he was afraid that she would run away if she woke up. He lay on the edge of the bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep. The moonlight poured down, illuminating his handsome face. Xie Chaochao couldn't help but look at him a little more.

Besides being handsome, he also exudes the youthful vigor and vitality.

So energetic, so gentle and considerate.

With a faint smile on her lips, Xie Chaochao reached out and moved the hair away from the corner of his mouth, but she didn't expect Chu Heng to grab her hand reflexively, his eyes as sharp as a knife.

"who!"

Xie Chaochao felt like his hands were about to be crushed.

Chu Heng let out a groan of pain, and instantly let go of his hand. But when he came to his senses, he grabbed it again, rubbing it in his hand with heartache, "I'm sorry, I was too nervous."

"Ma'am, forgive me."

Xie Chaochao took his hand back and shook his head, "It's okay."

"I'll be more careful next time. I'm afraid the Fifth Prince's men will come. I'm sorry."

Xie Chaochao discovered that he really loved saying sorry to her.

After struggling a few times, he took his hand back and said, "I am not a fragile little white flower. Although I need a safe haven to block the wind, it is good to get some wind and rain occasionally."

"Let me know that Su Moqing is a beast in human clothing."

Chu Heng suddenly smiled, and the deep meaning in his eyes slowly emerged. He grabbed her hand and placed it gently on his face. He was as obedient as a puppy, looking at her sincerely and warmly.

"Do you feel better then?"

"Much better." Xie Chaochao didn't want to make him worry, but in fact the wound on her body was still aching.

"Then go to sleep. Nothing will go wrong with me by your side tonight."

Xie Chaochao nodded, slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

……

The next day.

The bamboo fish was severely punished.

He was punished with ten strokes of the cane.

The beating was very severe, but he made no sound and just endured it.

Chu Heng drank his tea calmly. He waited until Zhuyu came down without saying a word and knelt on one knee on the ground before he asked casually.

"You know you're wrong? Are you not convinced?"

Zhuyu's eyes were firm, and he shook his head, "I know I'm wrong! I obey!"

"You should know why. I hope you can correct your mistakes next time. Otherwise..."

Bamboo Fish nodded, "Understood! It won't happen again!"

Chu Heng was satisfied then. Zhuyu had been with him since childhood. He had been wandering outside while carrying out missions, and had only returned to him in recent days.

He is a martial arts expert and aloof in personality, but once he recognizes someone, he won’t change.

But if the person he trusts most can't protect Xie Chaochao, then it's better not to have anyone!

Chu Heng really couldn't spare any time, so he attacked even harder.

After giving a few instructions, he left with the village chief again.

Zhuyu had been severely beaten and never left Xie Chaochao's side.

If someone approached, they would be scared away by his sharp eyes. If they were Su Moqing's men, they would see his murderous eyes and would not even dare to get close. They would be like a dejected dog trying to run away with its tail between its legs, and they would disappear in a flash.

Xie Chaochao squatted down, picked up the herbs, and hung them outside again.

Because his body was in so much pain, he kept bending over and gasping for breath, trying to make his injuries feel better. At this time, several children came over from outside.

Zhuyu was about to stop him but was stopped by Xie Chaochao.

"It's okay, they won't hurt me."

After saying that, he squatted down and rubbed the heads of the two little kids.

"Little Dog, Ah Hu, why are you here? And you brought so many good friends with you, do you want to introduce them to me?"

The two children, who were the ones who saved them from the fire and water, looked at each other and said, "Yes, but we want to give this to you because you seem to care so much."

It is said that these children lifted up their clothes.

Revealing the dirty herbs inside.

Pei Er was horrified. She took pots and pans and gathered all the herbs together. She sighed, "These herbs are all covered with dust. How can they still be eaten? They are dirty, just like mud."

Xie Chaochao brought the medicinal herbs over.

He used a small brush to brush off the dust on the surface and said slowly, "This is a life-saving thing. I originally thought there would be a clinic here, but now I see there is nothing. If I had known earlier, I would have brought a large batch of medicinal materials here."

These medicines are precious.

Never discard.

Upon hearing this, Pei'er hurriedly apologized for her thoughts. Xie Chaochao shook his head and said it was okay. Since she had been with Uncle Long for a long time, she knew most of the medicinal herbs and even knew a little about how to treat illnesses.

He took out several kinds of medicinal herbs, crushed them and gave them to Pei'er, asking her to boil them and drink them. Her health improved a lot.

He lowered his head and asked the children if anyone was injured.

Ergouzi said, yes, there are many more.

Ah Hu and others took Xie Chaochao to a place not far away and saw countless people there, including children, adults, and people with disabilities, including those who were seriously ill and might die at any time.

The doctor died and there is no one to treat the disease.

Everyone was holding on with one breath.

Xie Chaochao immediately walked over and checked from left to right and found that it was indeed not easy to deal with.

Judging from their complexions, it was definitely not just a simple cold. It seemed that their condition was getting worse.

Take Pei'er back and prepare the medicinal materials.

Soon a large pot of medicine came out. I don’t know whether it is effective or not. Xie Chaochao knows that these medicines are what Long Bo likes to use and they are very effective. I hope they work.

A large pot of medicine was put into the hands of the refugees, who drank it all.

As time passed, everyone was full of energy. Some were laughing, some were chatting, and some came to Xie Chaochao's door to express their special thanks.

Xie Chaochao looked at them with a smile and found that he seemed to have work to do.

Didn't he always want to not spend the Chu family's money? Maybe he could run a pharmacy with Uncle Long, become a small doctor, and earn some money.

After making up his mind, Xie Chaochao's mood improved.

In the evening, meat appeared on the table, which was rare.

Xie Chaochao thought Chu Heng would not come back and was just about to eat when Zhuyu reported happily. The next second, Chu Heng's tall figure appeared at the door, and their eyes met with smiles.

Chu Heng sat over and said with a smile.

“Once it’s investigated, the drought can be solved.”

"Really? That's great, how long will that take?"

"Half a month."

Chu Heng frowned slightly, "I didn't expect it would take so long. Are you anxious? If you are anxious, you can let Zhuyu take you back."

Xie Chaochao shook his head. “The people here need me. I can treat illnesses and I can give them treatment.”

"Madam!" Chu Heng was extremely surprised and grabbed her hand, happy and proud, "Thank you, Madam."
