Volume 1 Stunning Rivers and Lakes Chapter 3 Attempt
On a June day, the child's face changes when he says it.
One moment it was cloudless and the sun was shining, and the next moment it was dark clouds and torrential rain.
This kind of weather made Jin Fenglan very troubled, and several thundershowers fell one after another, and Luo Zichen and his party were stranded in the inn because of this.
In addition to this, the successive changes in the weather also caused her to suffer from wind and cold, and she could only stay in bed for the past two days.
If that's all she wants, she can accept it calmly, and she knows her physical condition.
However, because of the existence of Luo Zichen, she became a little impetuous, and such emotional ups and downs were already a little novel to her after three years of precipitation and cultivation.
"Lan'er, it's time to drink medicine."
Jin Fenglan, who was half-leaning on the head of the bed, frowned slightly because of this clear and warm voice. Since yesterday, he has been living in his room in the name of taking care of his fiancΓ©e.
Luo Zichen approached with a medicine bowl with a moderate temperature, sat on the edge of the bed, took her half into his arms, and fed the medicine himself.
After several protests were ineffective, Jin Fenglan was somewhat self-defeating to accept such thoughtful and affectionate care from him.
During her illness, she was not energetic, so it was not suitable to be tough with others.
After drinking a bowl of medicine, Luo Zichen stuffed a candied fruit into her mouth.
Although Jin Fenglan is not afraid of hardship, in fact, in the past three years, she has taken more medicine than food, and her tongue has become numb and accustomed to it. However, his actions still warmed her heart, and she was inexplicably a little vulnerable.
Luo Zichen wiped off the remaining medicinal juice on her lips with a handkerchief, and said as if chatting with her: "I don't like to eat snacks, this candied fruit was bought for you by Qingyan thirty miles away, it may not taste very good, but it will be some now, when the weather is good, when you get to the big town, I will let someone buy it for you." β
"Don't bother, I don't think the medicine is so bitter." She also has no habit of eating snacks.
Luo Zichen frowned and said, "But I look bitter." β
After drinking a few large bowls of thick medicinal juice every day, she didn't even frown, but he frowned.
Jin Fenglan stopped talking, his words warmed her heart, but also made her feel sad, suddenly she missed her deceased parents very much, she was once a baby held in the palm of her hand, but now she is left alone in the rivers and lakes, helpless.
Suddenly, there was a heat on the back of her hand, Luo Zichen raised her eyes to look, and was startled by the tears rolling down her eyes, and asked in a panic, "What's wrong with you?" Where is it uncomfortable? β
She raised her hand and wiped away her tears: "It's okay, my eyes hurt a little, so I cried." β
He looked at her thoughtfully, his eyes drooped slightly, and he just hugged her quietly.
After waiting for a long time and not seeing him leave, she got up a little uncomfortable and said, "I want to lie down for a while." β
"Oh," Luo Zichen answered, helped her lie down, covered the quilt for her, and said softly: "Then you go to sleep, I'll go to see the account book, something calls me." β
"Hmm."
Luo Zichen returned to the table and opened the account book, but his eyes did not fall on it, and the fragility and sentimentality she inadvertently revealed pierced his heart.
When he received the betrothed jade pendant, he was extremely angry, all these years, he had always wanted to pull her in front of him and question her, but at this time, he was afraid that there was a lot of strange things back then.
Her haggard appearance, her tattered body, and the words of the doctor gradually became a thread in his heart. What happened back then? Under what circumstances did she pawn their betrothed jade pendant and send the pawn ticket back to the Luo family?
If she doesn't say it, he won't ask, but there are some things that people will never know if they don't say it.
"Ahem......"
Luo Zichen looked at it when he heard it, and his eyebrows unconsciously gathered, after all, the doctor's medical skills in this remote place are limited, so she should leave as soon as possible and find a good doctor to help her diagnose and treat her carefully.
This burst of coughing came quickly and dramatically, and Jin Fenglan had to sit up and cover her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Is it uncomfortable?" He got up and walked over, but when he saw the blood on the handkerchief, he changed color, and grabbed the handkerchief and unfolded it.
Jin Fenglan couldn't stop him, so she could only cough and look at him helplessly.
"We can't delay here any longer, we'll leave in the afternoon."
"Ahem...... It's okay, it's just that I coughed badly and caused some internal injuries. β
"Internal injuries?" He raised his eyebrows, and sure enough, it was because of the heavy injuries she had suffered that caused her body to be so weak.
Jin Fenglan suddenly knew that she was speechless, smiled lightly, and said, "It is inevitable that people will walk through the rivers and lakes." β
Luo Zichen took a handkerchief again and handed it to her, and sat on the edge of the bed with a robe of his clothes.
She looked at him puzzled.
"Aside from my parents and blood relatives, husband and wife are the closest people in this world, Lan'er," he said in a slightly accentuated tone, "I hope you can be honest with me." β
She frowned.
Seeing that she stopped coughing, he poured a glass of warm water from the bedside table to rinse her mouth, and said with concern: "Of course, honesty is mutual, and I will be honest with you." β
"Lhotse...... Ahem...... Tatsu ......"
"Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry."
The more she looked at his calm and breezy expression, the more annoyed Jin Fenglan became, leaning towards her body and not giving face, and her throat did not cooperate at this time, so that she couldn't say anything.
"I don't want to see you right now." When she finally stopped coughing, she clutched her chest and glared at him, her tone very bad.
Luo Zichen looked at her calmly and smiled, and said: "The lady has a life, so naturally the husband will not dare to disobey, then I will go outside and stand outside, and come back when you are angry." After saying that, he got up and walked out without waiting for her to speak.
Jin Fenglan slapped the edge of the bed. It's definitely his own illusion to be moved, how can a person with a bad nature like Luo Zichen have any good intentions, maybe it's because she was the one who quit at the beginning, and he was angry, so he was angry about the marriage.
As if she had suddenly figured out everything, Jin Fenglan's heart slowly calmed down.
After leaving the room, Luo Zichen asked people to arrange the departure in the afternoon, and then went back to his room to drink a cup of tea, and then slowly paced into Jin Fenglan's room.
Seeing that she was sitting calmly at the head of the bed with her eyes closed, as if she was asleep, he walked over with light steps, his lips unconsciously brought a smile, and his voice was soft, as if he was afraid of frightening her: "After lunch, let's go, if you want to sleep, wait for the car to sleep." β
Jin Fenglan didn't open her eyes, but just leaned sideways, changing her flat lean to her side.
Seeing this, Luo Zichen smiled, shook his head slightly, and walked back to the table to continue reading the account books.
The Luo family's carriage was very ordinary, but when Jin Fenglan boarded the carriage, she knew that there was something else inside.
The decorations are all exquisite, but all of them are low-key, she can't help but laugh, low-key luxury is the real style of everyone, although not ostentatious but very tasteful.
Luo Zichen helped her to lie down on the couch, carefully helped her cover the quilt, and said, "If you are tired, just sleep for a while, don't worry, the car is very stable." β
After using the medicine after the meal, at this time, the medicinal properties came up, Jin Fenglan was indeed a little sleepy, so she didn't say anything, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Luo Zichen took the book and flipped it to the side at random, and after reading a few pages, his eyes moved to the beautiful woman who was already asleep.
What's wrong?
He thought about it carefully. It seemed that since he returned to the room again, the irritability that had been hovering over her for the past few days was gone, replaced by the calm and indifference of the first sight, like a pot of hot water about to boil suddenly cooled.
Looking at her pale and thin face, Luo Zichen's brows tightened. She is still too weak, the top priority is to take care of her body, and he is not busy with other things, he should try it slowly, and force it too quickly, for fear of backfire.
After thinking about it again, he no longer dwelled on the previous question, and seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, he also had a little sleepiness, so he moved to her side and lay down next to her.
After lying down for a while, he sat up suddenly, looking at the sleeping Jin Fenglan with a look of disbelief.
He never knew that a living person's body would be like a piece of ice when he fell asleep, like a dead person!
Luo Zichen probed Jin Fenglan's hands and feet suspiciously, and his face immediately became gloomy. This low body temperature is so unusual that even if you are naturally cold, you will not be able to freeze to this extent.
What kind of devastation did she suffer back then?
His fingers trembled to the tip of her nose, and after making sure she was still breathing, his heart finally settled a little.
Before he could take his hand away, he saw the sleeping man open his eyes and look at him quietly without saying a word.
Luo Zichen said calmly: "I'm worried that you won't sleep well." β
Jin Fenglan closed her eyes again.
He held her cold hand and asked with some concern, "Why is your body temperature so low in such weather?" β
Jin Fenglan still didn't speak, and the silence in the carriage was a little depressing for a while.
Just when Luo Zichen thought that there would be no answer, she suddenly asked, "Is there any wine?" The stronger, the better. "Seriously ill, she can't rely on her own skills to suppress the cold poison, so she can only rely on external forces.
He raised an eyebrow in surprise.
The stronger, the better.
"There is wine, but it is not spirits." As he replied, he opened the table next to him and took out a porcelain white wine jug with a warm color.
Jin Fenglan's heart was shocked, a wine jug is also delicate to be comparable to a treasure, and the Luo family's family is really not comparable to ordinary people.
Luo Zichen wanted to pour wine for her, but Jin Fenglan waved her hand and refused, directly took the whole wine jug, lifted the lid of the jug, and poured the wine into it with her neck up.
"Drink slowlyβ" He looked at her worriedly.
After a pot of wine, Jin Fenglan's face became more and more pale.
Luo Zichen was stunned, and hurriedly reached out to probe her forehead.
"Any wine?" She didn't dodge his movements, and asked herself.
Luo Zichen's eyes were full of worry, and he said, "Your physical condition is better to drink less." β
Jin Fenglan just continued: "If you have it, take it out." β
Luo Zichen couldn't resist her, so he took out another pot.
When all the wine in the table cabinet entered Jin Fenglan's stomach, her face was almost transparent.
Luo Zichen probed her body temperature and found that it had indeed increased, but his expression couldn't help but be more worried: "You are drinking to quench your thirst." "It depends on the situation to warm up with wine, but her physical condition at this time, drinking alcohol will only make her condition worse.
Jin Fenglan said nonchalantly: "It's a while." β
Luo Zichen tightened his eyebrows: "Lan'er." β
She raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "The body is mine, and I don't want to die for the time being." β
Luo Zichen said disapprovingly: "But what you are doing now is looking for death." β
Jin Fenglan's eyelids drooped slightly, covering the look at the bottom of her eyes, and her heart crossed with bitterness. Of course she understood what he meant, but if not, she would probably be out of this world long ago. Whenever the cold and poison in her body rushed on the snowy mountain, she could only rely on drinking a lot of liquor in addition to her luck to resist, and after three years, the amount of alcohol she had practiced.
"You're thinking too much."
"Am I thinking too much?" Luo Zichen snorted, carefully covered the silk quilt for her, and pulled a blanket to cover her.
Jin Fenglan habitually wanted to say thanks, but when the words came to her mouth, she stopped abruptly, and finally decided to sleep. It's better to be asleep than to be relatively silent with him.
But she was too weak to fall asleep again.
After making sure that she was asleep, Luo Zichen put down the curtain of the car, took a brocade box from the bookshelf, took out a stick of incense, lit it and inserted it into the incense burner.
Soon, a barely audible fragrance wafted through the carriage.
When Jin Fenglan regained consciousness, she felt that she was in a warm place, and it seemed that it had been a long time since she had woken up so comfortably.
However, when she slowly opened her eyes and saw everything around her, the urge to kill that she hadn't had for a long time also came to her head.
Before going to bed, she was in the car, but now, she was lying on a delicate carved bed, but what made her angry was that Luo Zichen, who slept on this bed with her, because she obviously felt that she was indifferent, and the other party was only wearing a thin underwear.
She clenched her fists, her eyes narrowing fiercely. She shouldn't have slept so deeply, someone must have done it.
Good! Very good! Very good! Hunting geese all day long, I didn't expect that now the geese pecked their eyes.
