Chapter 6 With him, he is safe
Gu Li was silent for a moment, and suddenly looked up at him again, with a sincere light shining in his eyes: "Then you can stay and help Brother Chang repair the wall tomorrow." β
By saying this, she accepted him.
He had helped her many times, and she naturally couldn't refuse him. Moreover, it is really not safe for her to live alone, and with him, it is good to take care of each other.
"Thank you." Yan Qing bowed slightly, expressing his gratitude.
"It's justβ" He curled the corners of his lips lightly, smiled slightly, and said casually and naturally, "I can't move bricks, so I'll do it for the wall, so you'd better come." β
Gu Li: "......"
She could understand that he couldn't move the coffin, but he couldn't move the bricks, which made it difficult for her to understand.
He is long and jade, and he is obviously a good-looking person, how can he not even move a brick?
But she wasn't too embarrassed to say anything more, just smiled slightly awkwardly.
After all, she and him are a little familiar, but they are not particularly familiar.
"It's late at night, go to sleep." Gu Li said, lit another oil lamp, and sent it to him.
Yan Qing took the lamp, smiled at her, and turned to go out.
Gu Li watched his long and elegant figure go out of the door, until he couldn't hear his gentle footsteps, then closed the door and lay back on the bed.
Even though she had just experienced a thrilling scene not long ago, with him at the moment, her heart felt stable for no reason.
Yan Qing returned to the next room, extinguished the oil lamp, and lay down on the bed.
He didn't sleep, he just lay quietly, there was no smile in his deep eyes, and the silence was terrible.
His perfect countenance was hidden in the layers of darkness in front of him, and there was no expression to be seen.
Darkness, he's used to it for a long time. For more than 300 years, day and night, this has been the case.
β¦β¦
As the light fell, he got up and walked out of the room.
The dawn of spring is intoxicating with the warm breeze mixed with the fragrance of flowers and plants. At this time, before the starlight dissipated, he stepped on the starlight all over the ground and walked towards the bright moon in the sky. The pace is gentle and the posture is melodious.
He was getting farther and farther away from her, and the pain in his body was getting bigger and bigger, as if every inch of skin was clutching bones. But there was nothing unusual on his face, he was still gentle and calm, and even had a little bit of a smile.
He stopped, looking back. I couldn't see her, I could only see the two gates from afar.
A meaningful smile tugged at his lips, and with that familiar tightness, he disappeared like a gust of wind and a wisp of clouds. Waiting for him ahead was a boundless darkness that had lasted for more than three hundred years.
But he laughed, and he looked forward to it. This darkness must not be far from over.
The first rays of sunlight in the morning hit Gu Li's face through the window, she opened her eyes, dressed and got up.
The next room was quiet, and there was no movement, and she thought he hadn't gotten up yet. So, before going out, Gu Li walked to the door of the room and knocked on the door, wanting to inform him.
However, the door was left open, and no one inside responded.
Gu Li looked in through the crack in the door and saw that there was no one inside. Looking at the door again, it has already been opened.
He's out? When did you go out? Why didn't she hear any movement?
Sister-in-law Chang's family next door had already gotten up, and Gu Li gave her the key to the house before leaving.
"My brother forgot to bring the key when he went out, if you hear that he is back, I will give him the key if I am tired of Chang Sister-in-law." Gu Li instructed.
"Hey, okay, I remember." Sister-in-law Chang responded, and asked Gu Li to have breakfast at her house before leaving.
"No, there's food over there in the Fairy Grass Hall, it's not too early, I'll go first." Gu Li smiled, crossed the collapsed courtyard wall, and walked out of the gate again.
When she entered the Immortal Grass Hall, she saw Doctor Qin's daughter Qingqing wiping the medicine cabinet.
"Sister Pear, my father and mother are waiting for you to eat, please come over quickly." Qingqing's delicate little face was full of smiles.
Gu Li nodded, agreed, and went to the back hall.
Dr. Qin has two husband and wife, and only has Qingqing's daughter for half his life. Gu Li was the same age as the young man, only one year older than her, and she was a lonely and helpless person, so Dr. Qin and his wife felt pity and treated her as their own daughter.
After eating, the Zhang family began to do housework, and Gu Li went to the front with Doctor Qin and started the day's work.
She already remembered the name of the medicinal herb almost, and if she grabbed the medicine today, she wouldn't be as busy as she was yesterday. With her as an assistant, Dr. Qin's side was also much lighter.
At the end of the day, Gu Li had to praise Dr. Qin's superb medical skills.
Xiancaotang is not big, it is just a family-style medical hall, so the people who come here to see a doctor are ordinary people. They don't have much money to spare, so they won't come out and spend money to see a doctor unless they can't bear it. This also determines that the patients seen by Dr. Qin are all seriously ill.
Gu Li has been a doctor for several years, and naturally understands that as a doctor, only when he has seen more difficult diseases and accumulated rich clinical experience, can his medical skills become more and more exquisite. Doctor Qin, that's it.
Dr. Qin not only has superb medical skills, but what is even more commendable is that he also has excellent medical products. He is kind to every patient and is extremely cautious about even the slightest symptoms, which coincides with Gu Li's medical philosophy.
Only by treating each symptom carefully can we cure the disease as much as possible, and even save the patient's life.
The work of Xiancaotang is not easy, Gu Li has been busy all day, until it is dark, and then he finishes work.
Before leaving, she advanced her salary to Dr. Qin and bought some food and daily necessities. Xiancaotang takes care of her food, but now there is one more person in the family.
Gu Li walked to the door of the house with many things she bought, and saw that the door was still locked. She put down her things and went to her sister-in-law to get the key.
"I'm back", sister-in-law Chang greeted warmly, and said, "Your brother hasn't come back all day, and the key is still with me." β
As she spoke, she took out the key and gave it back to Gu Li.
"What is your brother doing? I haven't seen him once in broad daylight. Sister-in-law Chang asked with a puzzled face.
Gu Li smiled and casually found a reason: "His work will go out early and return late." β
What he did, she didn't know.
Sister-in-law Chang laughed knowingly: "Oh, I see, I said." β
She praised from the bottom of her heart: "Your brother is so handsome, the best person I have ever seen!" β
Gu Li smiled silently, secretly agreeing with Sister-in-law Chang's words in her heart.
He was also the most perfect person she had ever seen in two lifetimes.
Saying goodbye to her sister-in-law, Gu Li went home to cook. She had already eaten it, so this meal was naturally made for him.
However, when she finished cooking, it was already dark, but Yan Qing still didn't come back.
Gu Li put the rice on the stove and warmed it, entered the house, and sat under the lamp while reading the medical books borrowed from Doctor Qin, while waiting for him to come back.
From time to time, she looked up at the door, a little anxious, unexpectedly spreading in her heart.
A small piece of the moon was missing, and at some point crept up the treetops. Fortunately, the moon is still bright tonight.
