Mu Shuangshuang led Lu Yuanfeng into the room, with a long bench placed in front of him.
She was rummaging through her dicine box inside the room.
This was made for her by Zhang Huai Shu, and all the dicines inside are for treating external injuries.
Mu Shuangshuang took out the golden sore dicine and said to Lu Yuanfeng, "Your sleeves, neck, and legs, all the places where you’re injured, I need to treat them."
Lu Yuanfeng hurriedly shook his head, "Shuangshuang, I can do it myself; you... you... turn around."
With a red face, Lu Yuanfeng stamred as he spoke.
Mu Shuangshuang laughed heartily, "Why, afraid I’ll take advantage of you? I’m just a little girl, not afraid, why should a big man like you be? Hurry up, stop dawdling!
There’s a pile of things outside waiting for us. There’s also Liu Zian, I just talked to him about opening a school in the village, and there are a lot of things left to discuss."
Only then did Lu Yuanfeng roll up his sleeves; his elbow, the place where the skin was rubbed off, was already scabbed, but the surrounding skin looked slightly bruised.
Mu Shuangshuang felt pain just looking at it.
She tightened her grip on the golden sore dicine, then held Lu Yuanfeng’s wrist and gently blew on it.
"Does it hurt?" Mu Shuangshuang asked.
"No, it doesn’t hurt..." Lu Yuanfeng chuckled, answering.
Mu Shuangshuang glared at him, "Liar, in this state, it doesn’t hurt!"
The golden sore dicine was sprinkled bit by bit on Lu Yuanfeng’s wound, and he didn’t make a sound.
But Mu Shuangshuang felt extrely distressed.
She frequently comforted Lu Yuanfeng, making him smile secretly there.
He rarely saw Shuangshuang like this, repeating the sa thing many tis.
But it was precisely because of this that Lu Yuanfeng realized how important he was in Shuangshuang’s heart.
Once the dicine was applied to his wrist, next was the knee. It was sowhat inconvenient on the knee, either Lu Yuanfeng had to take off his pants, or directly tear that part of the knee.
Lu Yuanfeng didn’t have many clothes to begin with; ripping one would leave him with one less piece.
So all Mu Shuangshuang could do was turn around.
"Fengzi, next ti, let’s go to the mountains together. At least I can help you; you know the mountains well, and I’m smart. Together, we can overco any difficulty."
Mu Shuangshuang was reasonable, and Lu Yuanfeng applied the dicine while chatting with her.
"By the way, Fengzi, Liu Zian passed the exam; he was the top scorer in Qianzhou Prefecture. Among our friends, we actually have such a big man."
Lu Yuanfeng, upon hearing that Liu Zian passed the exam, almost spilled the golden sore dicine on the floor.
"But he’s interesting; suddenly he ca here, and I don’t know whether he’s grateful for our help or sothing else." Mu Shuangshuang continued.
Up till now, Mu Shuangshuang hadn’t noticed Liu Zian’s interest in her.
Because she never thought such a thing would happen to her.
"Fengzi, why aren’t you talking? Are you listening?"
Facing away from Lu Yuanfeng, Mu Shuangshuang didn’t know what he was thinking at the mont.
"I’m listening! He’s impressive, Shuangshuang, what do you think of Liu Zian?"
"Not bad, it’s just sotis hard to tell what he’s thinking."
Mu Shuangshuang hadn’t seriously studied Liu Zian, like today. If Mu Shuangshuang hadn’t brought up the school, he wouldn’t have thought to help solve this issue.
So she really didn’t understand why he ca.
Mu Shuangshuang’s evaluation of Liu Zian was indifferent.
Lu Yuanfeng sighed with relief and finally focused on applying the dicine.
By the ti Mu Shuangshuang turned around again, Lu Yuanfeng had already applied the dicine on his neck.
"Alright, let’s go out!" Lu Yuanfeng carefully put away the golden sore dicine and hurriedly spoke up.
Outside the yard, Liu Zian occasionally glanced inside the house, and just when he was about to burst with anticipation, they finally ca out.
Liu Zian quickly stepped forward to greet them.
"Fengzi, are you feeling better?"
"Nothing serious, just a small injury, Shuangshuang has already treated it for . I heard from Shuangshuang that you passed the exam, congratulations!" Lu Yuanfeng sincerely remarked.
Looking at Lu Yuanfeng’s deanor, Liu Zian suddenly felt a bit suffocated.
"Yeah, my mom also said I’m quite impressive, finally rising from the status of a peasant to a scholar; maybe I can even beco an official one day."
Liu Zian’s words were actually sowhat aggressive.
To outsiders, it might seem like he was boasting.
In reality, he was indeed showing off; he simply wanted Lu Yuanfeng to back down...
Mu Shuangshuang furrowed her brows. "Liu Zian, being an official and farming are just different roles, that’s all. Being an official doesn’t make anyone superior, nor does farming make anyone inferior, as long as one can support oneself, it’s deserving of respect."
"Shuangshuang, that’s not what I ant..." Only then did Liu Zian realize that when he said those words, Shuangshuang was present.
And she was quite sensitive.
"I’m not implying what you’re saying either!" Mu Shuangshuang retorted with no good mood.
She wasn’t a fool; Liu Zian’s tone was so obvious, wasn’t it a blatant insult to her and Lu Yuanfeng?
So what if he becos an official?
If an official is like her uncle, aren’t they just the sa as loathso bloodsuckers, like a parasitic bandage?
"Shuangshuang..." Liu Zian tried to explain, but Mu Shuangshuang had already walked away.
Talking about status is sothing Mu Shuangshuang dislikes the most.
No matter who it is.
"Fengzi, let’s skin this sika deer and sell it to the villagers, the deer hide can be tanned to make warm deer leather shoes."
Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng chatted naturally; at this mont, Liu Zian seed redundant.
He regretted extrely, feeling he shouldn’t have said those things just to belittle Lu Yuanfeng!

Old Mu Family
Mu Xiangxiang woke up again; it was already midday. Mrs. Lin didn’t eat, personally scooped up lean at porridge, and went to Mu Xiangxiang’s room to deliver food.
To say she was delivering food, it was actually tornting Mu Xiangxiang.
Her daughter wanted to marry into the Qin Family; she had to slowly tornt Mu Xiangxiang to death.
After all, this freeloading thing eats without leaving anything and can’t do anything.
Keeping her was just wasting food.
Bringing the porridge into Mu Xiangxiang’s room, the scent of at imdiately attracted Mu Xiangxiang, who was still lying down.
She used the strength of her arm to turn herself, and upon turning, she saw Mrs. Lin standing at the door, looking at her with a sinister expression.
"... Wuwuwu..." Go, get out, leave!
Mu Xiangxiang scread, but could only make wuwu sounds.
"Xiangxiang, don’t get agitated, second sister-in-law brought you your lunch; you didn’t eat your breakfast because you said it was too little.
You can’t possibly skip lunch, right?"
Mu Xiangxiang’s eyes glared fiercely at Mrs. Lin, as if she was going to devour her.
Mrs. Lin laughed covering her mouth.
"Look at how good this porridge is, with at in it, take a sniff..."
