"Auntie, you've only been away for less than two days, how can Ye'er be so delicate." Mo Ye held Li Shi's hand on her forehead, and said with a smile: "I just fell asleep, maybe I wet my hair when I washed my face just now, and I didn't dry it in the quilt." ”

Although Li Shi got Mo Ye's explanation, she still insisted on reaching out and probing Mo Ye's forehead to rest assured, and then she took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped Mo Ye's forehead, and then said softly: "If your hair gets wet, you have to dry it before you go to sleep, and now it's still cold, so you have to pay attention everywhere." ”

Lin Shan, who was originally going to come over to see if Mo Ye had a fever, was also relieved when he saw this, and after listening to Li Shi's words, he spoke: "Eldest sister, you are so careful with Ye'er, but you don't know how to pay attention, it's late at night, you should stay for a night, and it's not too late to come back tomorrow." ”

Li Shi smiled silently and said: "I'm not used to living outside, and besides, I haven't seen Ye'er for a day, and I still can't let go of it in my heart." ”

Mo Ye took the opportunity to flatter: "Auntie, you love me so much, I'll sleep with you tonight!" I can help you warm your feet. ”

Li Shi looked at Mo Ye lovingly and said, "With you by my side, of course I don't have to worry about not being able to sleep warmly at night." ”

But listening to Lin Shan's merciless pouring of cold water halfway, he said to Mo Ye solemnly: "Ye'er, don't think I don't know, you want to ask your aunt, where have you been in the past two days, right?" Let me remind you first, don't be too annoying tonight, take care of your aunt's body, she has just made a long night trip. ”

Mo Ye's mind was all guessed by Lin Shan, and it was seen through in an instant, she couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't find a rebuttal for a while, so she could only stick out her tongue at Lin Shan.

Lin Shan ignored this, he didn't talk anymore, and beckoned Ma An out, it seemed that there was something to talk about privately between the two brothers. In addition to the conversation that Ma An had when he came back, after he tied the horse in the backyard and set up the carriage, he had fewer words, especially for Mo Ye and Li Shi, there were not many words of greeting, it seemed that he had something in mind.

Li Shi didn't talk much about it, maybe she was really tired from the journey, she took Mo Ye back to the room, and the house that had just been noisy for a while gradually quieted down as everyone returned to their rooms.

Since Li Shi returned home, it was difficult for Mo Ye to find a chance to enter the kitchen cubicle alone at home, and her behavior was almost discovered by her family that night, and she had always been a little afraid, so she gradually faded the idea of entering the cubicle again.

Time flies, in the gradual forgetfulness of Mo Ye, the tail of the cold winter gradually disappears, and the spring flowers begin to bloom.

Although the warmth of the spring days is rising day by day, the air is always filled with the biting cold of winter at night and in the morning. The literati described it as 'warm and cold at first', and even ordinary people know that spring is still early, and the cold is not sparse. But even so, the climate in early spring is still easy to catch the wind chill if you are not careful.

On this day, after Li Shi woke up in the morning, he felt that his hands and feet were floating, and after preparing breakfast, this physical discomfort became more and more serious, and when everyone was eating breakfast around the table, he was seen by Lin Shan. Ma An invited a doctor to come and see, although the problem was not big, it was just a sign of wind and cold invasion and some slight fever, but Li Shi was still taken to the county seat by Lin Shan and sent to the county hospital for recuperation.

In addition to having a sitting doctor to see and prescribe medicine, the county medical center also has a small room similar to a room for patients with hidden diseases or no one to take care of them at home to rest and recuperate. This is a very thoughtful idea, but not many people stay in the hospital. First, because of the high cost of medical care that needs to be paid every day for this kind of small ward; Second, most of the people who can pay for such high medical expenses are either rich or expensive, since their family has a lot of assets, why should they stay in an unfamiliar place to rest?

Therefore, most of the ancillary facilities of the medical center are vacant every day, but it still exists, because the big boss who funded the construction of the medical center is an authentic businessman, and in his concept, there is always a time when people are in urgent need of special services. And the big boss is extremely confident that if he spends his wisdom on management, someone will always pay for him, and there is not only one medical center like this in the county, and it is really difficult to maintain it for a long time if you don't make your own characteristics in business.

This intimate sanatorium of the medical center has solved Lin Shan's dilemma very appropriately today. Because of his identity, he did not invite Yahuan at home, and if Li Shi was sick, he would have no one to take care of him if he stayed at home. If she is left to take care of herself at home, I am afraid that she will not only refuse to rest well, but also drag her sick body to do some trivial things, which will only aggravate her condition.

At this moment, it is indeed better to send her to the hospital.

After instructing Li to rest at ease, Lin Shan and Ma An went out of the hospital together, which was a rare time for Lin Shan to let Ma An drive into the county seat and not stop passing through the city. However, after sending Li Shi to the hospital, Lin Shan did not get into the carriage again, but prepared to walk to the academy.

Seeing this, Ma An hurriedly shouted, "Big brother, aren't you going back?" I remember yesterday you had a class, but today you didn't have a class. ”

Lin Shan said: "I went to the academy to ask for a few days off, and Ye'er's daily medicine still can't be cut off in the past few days, but I want to cook it." Although she has learned some things about boiling medicine, I still don't feel comfortable with her doing it alone. ”

He saw that Ma An's eyes seemed to be hiding something, so he stopped again and asked, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

Ma An was stunned and said, "It's okay, it's not a big deal." As soon as he finished speaking, his face turned red.

Seeing this, Lin Shan couldn't help but laugh and said, "What is there that can make you a big man blush?" Don't lie to me, didn't that girl ask you out? ”

Ma An smiled a little unnaturally and said, "Don't mess around, what kind of girl ......"

Lin Shan saw that he was still unwilling to hide it when he reached this point, so he couldn't help but directly dismantle him: "Don't hide it, a few days ago, Aunt Li helped you clean the sheets, and a sachet fell out from under the quilt, she told me about it, if I wasn't familiar with you, I almost thought that you stole this thing." ”

Lin Shan wrapped his arms around his chest, looked Ma An up and down a few times, and said with a smile: "You actually told me about this matter a year ago, but she didn't seem to come back on time at the beginning of this year, and the content of the note in that sachet seems to be dating you, I think you must not be able to wait." ”

Ma An jumped on the seat of the carriage, jumped off it again in shock when he heard the words, and then said with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "This...... I thought I had lost it myself, but it turned out to be ...... Hey, how can you read my letter? ”

"I didn't do that kind of thing, my eldest sister saw it and told me. I didn't expect you to hide everything so poorly, even Ye'er's girl is better at hiding things than you. Lin Shan sarcastically said to him, and then said with a smile: "Although the embroidery on the sachet is very bad, it can be seen that it was made by a girl, and the spices wrapped in the sachet are also of the highest quality, it seems that the girl has true feelings for you." But the note in the sachet didn't say the time, otherwise I would have liked to accompany you on a trip to see how shocking the girl you had hidden for so many years...... Well, when are you about to do so? ”

Ma An saw that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he had to confess to Lin Shan, but his tone was still not very coherent: "Tonight, that girl is going to take me to meet her parents." ”

Lin Shan's eyes slowly began to light up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but smile: "Seeing the woman's elders, this rule is peculiar. If it weren't for me to take care of my family's affairs, I would have wanted to follow you quietly. ”

Ma An said with a look of embarrassment: "Originally, I was also going to ask you to go with me, I was afraid that I would meet her parents and friends, and I didn't know what to do, after all, my identity ......"

Lin Shan comforted him and said: "What's wrong, you are my brother, and I am the gentleman of the academy, bite this relationship, and you can make up the rest." If this method doesn't work, or the other party is very critical of you, then the other family has other things to do with you...... But in any case, as long as that girl has true feelings for you, I don't think her family background will hinder you. That girl can not be afraid of ordinary courtesy, take the initiative to show her sincerity to you, and preside over business affairs all the year round, I think she must be the pillar of decision-making in the family. ”

Ma An's heart calmed down, a smile slowly appeared on his face, and he said to Lin Shan: "Then I'll go, I'll try to come back as early as possible tonight." ”

Lin Shan approached Ma An's side, pushed him towards the side of the carriage, and then feigned anger: "You guy, are you going to be a bachelor for a few years?" Give me an honest coax of other people's girls, such a strange woman was won by you, and you don't know how to cherish the big bargain. ”

Ma An sat back in the driver's seat of the carriage and laughed embarrassedly.

"Don't come back if it's too late tonight, judging by the grade of the spice, there won't be no room in her house for you to rest for the night." Lin Shanba thought about it, took out a small brocade bag from his sleeve and threw it to Ma An, and said, "Maybe you don't have to spend money to go here, but you always have to be prepared." It's okay to giggle like this when you go to someone else's house, but don't look absent-minded. Ye'er is no longer the little child she was a few years ago, and I have no problem taking care of her for two or three days. ”

Ma An finally put his mind at ease. Under Lin Shan's construction, Ma An drove back to Xingjia Village first, changed into a set of clothes, and then untied the horse from the carriage and rode to the appointment.

The courses that Lin Shan is responsible for teaching at the academy are all additional, which he also took the initiative to ask for a few years ago, in order to facilitate the request for leave in case of special circumstances. After all, he doesn't really want to be a teacher in the academy, but he lives here all the year round, and even if he will eventually leave in the future, he always needs a formal identity.

He took three days off without specifying the specific reason, but the dean granted two more days of leave, explaining that if the trivial matters were not completed, they could delay for two days, and Lin Shan did not refuse, thanked him and left
