Chapter 11
Seeing Xiao Geng's expression, Xie Linger knew that he was thinking wrong, Xiao Geng let go of his hand and turned around to leave, but Xie Linger, who did not know where the courage came from, reached out and grabbed Xiao Geng's wrist, Xiao Geng's body trembled, Wanting to turn around, she remembered that Xie Ling'er was naked, so she tried not to turn her head, and asked in a blunt tone, "What else is there?"

Xie Ling'er was wrapped in a quilt, cleared her throat and said to Xiao Geng: "Brother Xiao, I mean I won't rely on you because of this matter, and you don't have to worry about it, but you are really a good person in my eyes .”

nice guy?

Xiao Yu could see Xie Linger's snow-white and slender arms from the corner of her eye, and she froze and said to her: "The word good person is too broad, you don't need to explain it." After speaking, he left.

Xie Ling'er didn't fall asleep all night, and she kept thinking about what Xiao Geng said, what does it mean to use too many words for a good person?Could it be that Xiao Geng is often praised as a good person?But it is true, Xie Linger can tell that Xiao Geng's background is not bad, if the scar on his face is healed, he must be a handsome man.

Over the years, Xiao Geng must have suffered a lot of eyes because of the scars on her face. The only way she can repay Xiao Geng's mother and son is to cure her aunt's illness and remove the scars on Xiao Geng's face.

Thinking this way, Xie Linger fell asleep without guilt.

It was night, but after returning from Xie Linger's room, Xiao Geng couldn't fall asleep anyway, and couldn't feel sleepy after tossing and turning on the bed, so he could only stand outside the house with his clothes together and stare at the moonlight in a daze.Wang woke up from her sleep, and when she got up to drink water, she saw a figure outside, and walked out gropingly, only to find that it was Xiao Geng.

"Why doesn't Jiaer sleep? Why is he standing in the yard in the middle of the night." Wang Shi came out and stood beside Xiao Jia, which caused a series of coughing sounds. Hearing the sound, Xiao Jia hurriedly turned around and saw Wang's clothes were light, helping her He watched her walk into the house: "It's nothing, I'm not too sleepy, mother, why are you awake?"

"I got up to drink some water, and saw someone outside the house." Wang looked at her son's side face, and every time she saw this face, she could always think of the days in the palace, happy and painful, and she blamed her negligence for causing her son years of pain.

If it wasn't for this face, the son might be married now, maybe she could be a grandma.

Thinking of the girl, Wang thought of his son letting the Gu family lady live in his home.

"This Ling'er is really a nice girl. The Gu family was too harsh on her. I heard from Ling'er that you were the one who saved her when she fell into the river. You are a good son! If we don't do harm to others, we must at least know how to save them! A human life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!" Although the Wang family has not had such good conditions in the palace these years.

But she has been devoting herself to chanting Buddha, hoping that her son will meet the woman he is destined to have a happy marriage for a hundred years.

Xiao Geng thought of Xie Linger's smiling face again, and couldn't help being a little distracted.

The two of them are outsiders, and they seldom interact with people in the village. He probably knows a little about the Gu family's wife.However, it was Gu Yong of the Gu family who left the village to work in other places on the day he married his wife, and the wife of the Gu family was bought by his own family to the Gu family. She had devoted herself to taking care of Gu Yong's mother over the years, but she never expected When Yong came back, he brought another woman back.

Enter the room.

And sell Xie Linger to a brothel.

Seeing Xie Ling'er throwing herself into the river that day, Xiao Jia jumped down to save others without even thinking about it. She didn't expect her to be dependent on him, but she is a doctor who can treat her mother's illness as long as she can.

"Mom, go to sleep. Tomorrow, Xie Linger and I will go to the mountain to collect herbs. With the herbs, your illness will be cured soon!"

Wang Shi nodded and patted Xiao Geng on the back of his hand.

Staring at his mother's back disappearing in front of his eyes, Xiao Jia took a deep breath and lay down on the bed for a long time before gradually falling asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Geng woke up early and prepared to make breakfast. He thought that after eating, he would take Xie Linger up the mountain to collect herbs. As soon as he opened the curtain and went out, he saw Xie Linger sitting on a small wooden chair holding a bowl and drinking. Congee, looking at the distant room, showing a kind of longing, turned his head to take a look when he heard the movement behind him, and saw Xiao Geng standing there.

Xie Linger waved her hand holding the chopsticks and said, "I made porridge and steamed buns. You can eat them yourself in the pot. I made my aunt's and kept them warm. When we go up the mountain Auntie can eat directly when she wakes up." She said it very naturally, as if this was her own home.

Xiao Geng was obviously taken aback for a moment, then nodded in a daze.

Mother said that Xie Linger's cooking was delicious, even better than her cooking.Xiao Geng didn't know that Mrs. Wang used to be a concubine of the palace. When she was in the palace, Mrs. Wang never cooked and had servants.Things like cooking were gradually learned after leaving the palace with Xiao Geng, and now they are only at the stage of being able to eat.

But Mrs. Wang said to Xiao Geng that the Gu family's daughter-in-law cooks really delicious food.

A simple bowl of pimple soup can create a taste that you can't usually eat.

There is very little rice in such a village, at most it is millet, and there is not much food, let alone meat.Xie Linger looked at the noodle jars and rice jars in Xiao Geng's house and was worried, thinking that if there were valuable medicinal materials going up the mountain in a while, she would gather more and go to the city to buy them, and she could buy some food back.

As for the meat, let’s get some wild game.

After being reborn into Xie Linger's body, Xie Linger never had a good meal.When I saw those people in Gu's house, I felt sick to my stomach. Every day, I thought about how to prevent Mrs. Chen from finding fault. Now it's better. After leaving Gu's house, my appetite has returned. I was hungry to death yesterday, and I woke up dizzy with hunger today. .

This little thing can't fill your appetite.

She glanced sideways, Xiao Geng was serving porridge, and looked up and down.Even though Xiao Geng is thinner among men of the same age, he probably doesn't have enough to eat in this village.

Well, Xiao Geng saved her. If she is taken in in the future, at least she will ensure that Xiao Geng and his aunt can have enough to eat.

Xiao Geng saw that Xie Ling'er put a few pieces of purple-red flowers in the porridge she usually drank, which made the orange-yellow porridge emit a faint fragrance, which was indeed different from what my mother usually made.

"what is this flower?"

Xie Ling'er had just finished the last sip of porridge in the bowl when she saw Xiao Jia coming out with the bowl and squatting beside her.Xie Ling'er glanced sideways at the porridge in Xiao Geng's bowl, and said, "This is peony flower, the porridge made from it will be more palatable, try it, there are dates in the wotou I picked up in the back room, It tastes better when you eat it. You can try it all, we will go to the back mountain in a while, and I will take you to hunt wild game!"

Xie Linger said it easily, as if she could fight, Xiao Geng took a look at Xie Linger.He is often active in the back mountain, but he has never seen Xie Linger go up the mountain!

Thinking about it, it should be just talking, Xiao Geng didn't say anything, but endured it.

Xie Ling'er got up and went to the back to fetch water and wash the dishes and wait for Xiao Geng to eat.
