Chapter 752: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 13
"I see that there seems to be nothing wrong with your bones, but after all, I haven't touched them, and I'm not a doctor in town.
However, these superficial injuries seem to be recovering well.
I estimate that in ten days or half a month, you will be able to walk again.
Don't be shy if you want to go to the toilet or something like that, I can help you.
As for who you offended, don't worry, I saved you because I was interested in the reward you might give me in the future. I'm an orphan, so I'm not afraid of trouble."
Miaomiao tried her best to be more friendly to the other party and said some things openly. Perhaps it would put the sensitive young man's mind at ease?
"Thank you."
Xiao Yunzhou opened his mouth to thank her, and seemed to smell a hint of fragrance from her hair between his nostrils, like the fragrance of wild flowers, mixed with the smell of medicine on his body. It was more real than the [Sinking Water Incense] he used to burn in his mansion, and reminded him of a molar that had just broken through the ground in spring, full of moist vitality.
Xiao Yunzhou subconsciously looked up and happened to meet the little girl's eyes that were like cold stars. Her pupils were as black as the pool water in the mountains. In the sunlight, it reminded him of the glass lamps hanging on the eaves of the rain-beating banana leaves in his villa in Jiangnan.
At this moment, he suddenly wanted to say something more. It was rare that Xiao Yunzhou was a little confused about his own thoughts.
"There's no need to call a doctor. I can feel that most of your injuries are external. I'll trouble you to take care of yourself.
My name is Xiao Yunzhou, I’m 14 years old, and I was just playing around when I passed by this nearby path with my servants, on my way to my grandfather’s house.
However, he never expected that he would be robbed by bandits nearby. After being chased to a cliff, he fell off the cliff.
I will never forget the girl's life-saving grace.
When I recover from my injury, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
Miaomiao nodded. Xiao Yunzhou saw that apart from her young face, there was something awkward about her way of speaking, as if she was pretending to be mature.
But, if he said they were bandits, then so be it. Since they were here anyway, it wasn't impossible for her to try her best to keep those men in black. If she couldn't keep them, it wouldn't be too late to run away.
"Now that you've said that, let me introduce myself. My name is Ling Miaomiao, and I live in Lingjia Village at the foot of Ming Mountain. My parents are both dead, so I have no one to worry about, so I dared to take you in.
Don't be polite to me now. Whether you are a bandit or an enemy, it has nothing to do with me.
Take good care of your health first."
Miaomiao smiled, revealing her pointed little fangs, and for a moment she looked a little cunning.
She was still hungry. After helping Xiao Yunzhou lie back on the bed, she sat down at the table and began to drink her bowl of cold chicken soup.
The door was open, and the little girl ate mouthfuls of food with her back to him. The mountain breeze blew through her hair and skirt, as if she had become one with nature...
Xiao Yunzhou just stared at the little girl's back as she drank soup until she finished a bowl of soup, ate two big steamed buns, and looked back at him. Only then did Xiao Yunzhou suddenly come to his senses.
He actually realized only now that he had never observed someone other than his political enemy so intently.
She was not the most beautiful person he had ever seen, and she didn't even wear the finery of a noble lady, nor did she speak with every word eloquent.
But it was this simple and casual look and action that made him stare at others unconsciously.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Miaomiao is a hunter, and her five senses are very sharp. From the moment she started eating, the other party was staring at her from behind...
No matter how much you stare at her, she won't give you any more meat. We are all fourteen or fifteen years old and are still growing. No one is better than anyone else. What's wrong with her stealing a piece of meat?
She hunted the whole pheasant...
Miaomiao resisted the urge to look back and stare at the other person, and silently ate the cold chicken soup and the chicken meat in it along with two big steamed buns.
Since the Son of Destiny couldn't let go of his face, she could only pretend that she couldn't feel his resentment.
Of course, it’s a different story if you’re full.
That's why Miaomiao stood up and asked the young master questions.
Xiao Yunzhou froze a little at the girl's straightforward gaze, and his fingertips subconsciously clenched the corner of the quilt. He had never backed down in his daily life, whether he was analyzing the current situation in the court or debating with political enemies.
But this time, he was faced with the clear eyes of a little girl in her teens, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After all, he didn't know why he was staring at the other person.
"Well, I was just wondering if Miss Ling is very good at martial arts."
By accident, Xiao Yunzhou found a suitable question.
He remembered that in this life, he had felt the haze in his heart dissipate a little after seeing the other person devouring three bowls of wontons. Also, because of the other person's excellent skills and arrogant eyes, he felt...
What was going on? Xiao Yunzhou touched his chest, feeling something empty. He was silent for a moment.
"Not bad. I don't know the limit, but if we compare it to those bandits you mentioned, I should be able to handle seven or eight of them, right?"
Miaomiao didn't say everything, but she couldn't help but hope that the bandits would come over in small groups to rob the rich and help the poor.
She also wanted to repair the fence, and if possible, buy a few maids to help her with the work...
Seeing the little girl's proud look, Xiao Yunzhou lowered his head and subconsciously hid a smile. Her martial arts skills were indeed good.
If I were fourteen years old in this life, the best I could do would be a draw with the other party.
But now he was reborn and had the memories of his previous life. The memory of being knocked off a cliff at the age of fourteen in his previous life was too despairing, so Xiao Yunzhou did not give up martial arts even if he was busy later.
Therefore, with his current martial arts skills, it is not impossible for him to kill those criminals.
"Then I'll leave everything to Miss Ling from now on."
After these conversations, Xiao Yunzhou settled down here safely.
After a few days, he was able to sit up on his own, and this change made him feel somewhat relieved.
At this time, it was drizzling outside, but the room was very dry.
As Xiao Yunzhou watched Miaomiao pour the stewed pheasant soup into a coarse earthenware bowl, he suddenly recalled a completely different experience at the same time in his previous life amidst the steam.
At that time, although he applied herbal medicine to the wounds all over his body, the dilapidated environment still made his body weaker.
Raindrops dripped down the collapsed thatched roof, and pots and pans made a chaotic sound of water dripping onto the ground.
At that time, Ling Miaomiao's house was penniless, and the only thing she could eat without changing her expression was the burnt potatoes. As for chicken, she also had it, but it was either too raw or too fishy when cooked.
Not to mention that the other party was reluctant to use firewood to cook the pheasant, so the pheasant was so dry that it was hard to bite.
