After some introductions from both sides, Xiao Xixi learned that the old man's surname was Yue. Because he ranked third in his family, everyone called him Yue Laosan.

The old woman is his first wife. Her maiden name is Deng.

Deng put the oil lamp on the table and explained, "this house was originally lived by my daughter. She married away, so the house was empty."

She noticed that Xiao Xi and Luo QingHan were all wet, so she continued.

"You take a break first. I'll get you two sets of clean clothes."

Xiao Xi was busy thanking her.

Deng turned and went out.

This room is very small. There is a sleeping couch near the wall, which is covered with bedding.

There is a small low table next to it. The oil lamp is placed on the table and emits a faint yellow light.

Because he was still wet, Xiao Xi helped Luo QingHan to sit down at the table in order to avoid getting his bedding wet.

Luo QingHan's face was frighteningly white at this time, and his thin lips closed tightly without a trace of blood color.

Xiao Xixi reached out and took out a little turtle from his clothes.

She put the tortoise on the table.

Luo QingHan was stunned: "is this Xiaoxi?"

Xiao Xi nodded and said yes.

Originally, Xiaoxi was put in a porcelain basin. Later, because she wanted to dress up and get out of the city, she had to put Xiaoxi into her clothes and bring it out together.

Xiaoxi lay on the table, his head retracted into the turtle shell, and entered the state of pretending to be dead again.

Deng will be back soon.

She put two sets of coarse clothes on the bed.

"These are the clothes that my old man and I usually wear. Although they are shabby, they are all washed and very clean. You can change them first. It's so cold today. If you wear wet clothes all the time, you will get sick."

Xiao Xixi has thanked many times just now, but now she doesn't know what to say except thank you.

Deng and Yue have only one daughter. Since their daughter married out, there are only two of them left in the family. In addition, they live in a remote place, surrounded by barren mountains and mountains, and they don't even have a visiting neighbor, which leads to their very cold life.

Now it's not easy for two people to come to visit, and Deng's heart is still very happy.

She smiled and said, "you change your clothes first. I'll cook some ginger soup for you."

After Deng left, Xiao Xi closed the door and helped Luo QingHan change his clothes.

She used to do such things, but now she is naturally familiar with them.

But three or two times, Luo QingHan was picked up by her.

The body between teenagers and mature men looks both green and vigorous.

However, Xiao Xi didn't appreciate it at this time.

She carefully wiped the blood off his right arm with a wet veil.

The edge of the wound was a little white by the river, and even the blood and flesh inside could be seen. At this time, it was still slowly flowing blood outward, which looked terrible.

Xiao Xi was afraid that his wound would be infected and inflamed.

In this era without antibiotics, a small infection can kill people.

She had no medicine on her, so she had to clean up the wound and wrap it up with a clean cloth towel.

She'll try again later to see if she can go into the mountain and find some herbs to stop bleeding and heal her wounds.

Xiao Xixi picked up the clean clothes beside him, put them on Luo QingHan one by one, and carefully avoided the wound on his arm.

Luo QingHan leaned on the low table, because he temporarily found a place to spend the night, his nervous tension relaxed.

As soon as he relaxed, he was a little sleepy and his eyelids kept pressing down.

Xiao Xi said to him as she took off her wet clothes.

"Don't sleep yet. At least wait until you finish drinking ginger soup."

Luo QingHan tried to lift his eyelids and just saw the picture of Xiao Xi taking off his clothes.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he looked away.

A moment later, his eyes involuntarily turned back to Xiao Xi.

Xiao Xi's skin color is very white. After soaking in the cold river water, it is surprisingly white.

He watched her raise her arm, put the white and tender arm through her sleeve, covered her body with dark brown coarse cloth, and put away the burning beautiful scenery.

Luo QingHan lowered his eyelashes and looked at Xiao Xi lying motionless on the table. His eyes were dark and deep. He couldn't see what he was thinking.

After changing into clean clothes, Xiao Xi feels much more comfortable.

She picked up the wet clothes on the ground, put them on the table, and then ran out to find Deng to see if there was a place to dry them.

Deng was cooking ginger soup in the stove. She heard Xiao Xi's inquiry.

She said, "it's still snowing outside and I can't dry clothes. You help look at the ginger soup. I'll get you a brazier. You hang your clothes next to the brazier. There should be enough time to dry all night."

Xiao Xi hurriedly agreed.

Ginger soup was burning in the pot, giving off a pungent smell of ginger.

Deng has let go of the seasoning. Now Xiao Xixi just needs to look at the fire.

Soon Deng returned with a brazier.

Xiao Xixi pulled the charcoal fire out of the stove and transferred it to the brazier.

She carried the fire basin back.

Deng Shi was still worried that she could not hold it, but he saw that her pace was steady and didn't look particularly hard.

Deng's heart was relieved, but he was also a little surprised.

The little lady looked at the small one and didn't expect that she had great strength.

Xiao Xi came back to the house with the fire basin. She shook off her wet clothes and hung them next to the fire basin.

Deng came in with two bowls of hot ginger soup.

"Drink this soup quickly to drive away the cold."

Xiao Xixi took the ginger soup with both hands. First he fed Luo QingHan a bowl, and then he picked up another bowl of ginger soup and drank it.

A bowl of hot ginger soup made her feel warm.

Yue Laosan came in with a coarse pottery bowl filled with mashed herbs.

"This is a prescription I learned from others. I usually go hunting in the mountains. If I accidentally get hurt and bleed, I will apply these herbs to the wound. The effect is good. Would you like to try it for your husband?"

Xiao Xi was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed.

Yue Laosan handed her the coarse pottery bowl. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the little turtle on the table and couldn't help but be happy.

"You still have this turtle?"

Xiao Cuixi: "yes, this is my birthday gift to my husband. I must keep it well."

Yue Laosan said, "give me the tortoise. I'll put it in the water and get it something to eat."

Xiao Xixi handed Xiao Xi over to him and didn't forget to tell him.

"Don't confuse it with other turtles. We'll recognize one of them, but not the others."

Yue Laosan was amused by her solemn appearance and smiled: "OK, I promise I won't mix it up."

He took an empty bowl and left with Deng.

When they go out, they don't forget to close the door.
