It was daybreak when Ji Xiaobei woke up. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Fu Jichang staring at her.

She got up and said, "You, what are you doing?"

"Look at you!" Fu Jichang said as he looked at her rosy cheeks as she slept.

"What's so good about it?" Ji Xiaobei blushed, threw back the quilt and got out of bed, "I've already talked to Yuhui!"

Fu Jichang nodded.

"Yuhui has something to ask you. Go see him before you leave!" said Fu Jichang.

Ji Xiaobei nodded, and must be asking about Yu Yao's recent situation.

Last night, I only said two sentences.

Liang Yuhui and the county government officials were already waiting in the open space in front of the tent.

"Miss Ji, here is a letter for my sister. Please ask someone to take it to her. There are a few banknotes in it. It's not much, but it's my gift to you." Liang Yu handed Ji Xiaobei a thick letter.

Ji Xiaobei nodded and accepted it.

"Your sister is doing well. When we came, she was already pregnant. My brother and mother will definitely treat her well, so don't worry!"

Ji Xiaobei said solemnly.

Liang Yu nodded and watched Ji Xiaobei, Fu Jichang and the others walk out of the woods.

Heita didn't have a chance to talk to his master last night, and he kept chattering and asking questions on the way.

Fu Jichang patted his head and said, "That's enough. Stop asking. If you ask too much, your little head won't be able to handle it..."

Heita touched his head: Master, do you think I am asking too many questions?

He saw his master and Ji Xiaobei walking forward side by side.

"Master, I'll lead the way..." Heita grinned and shouted, rushing to the front.

Following them and watching them being so affectionate, he thought of Xiaoju.

I don’t know how Xiaoju is doing now, and whether she has forgotten me.

He really hoped that hoarding land would end soon.

……

On the way, Ji Xiaobei learned that Fu Jichang was injured when fighting with the Western Barbarians. Under heavy siege, he had no choice but to enter Boling Mountain.

He ran all the way inside, and the Western Barbarians were chasing him relentlessly.

Later, Fu Jichang found a way to get rid of them and escaped from danger.

After entering Mount Boling, he lost his way, and coupled with his serious injuries, he stumbled into the mountains.

Unexpectedly, I met Liang Yuhui and his men who were looking for water.

He brought the court doctor with him to treat his wounds.

He helped Yu Hui look for water, but they couldn't find any for more than ten days.

He thought it would be found quickly, so no one went out to deliver the letter.

Ji Xiaobei told him that Fang Qing helped find people, and she also met the Western Barbarian leader Tuomu.

Fu Jichang gradually couldn't keep up with Ji Xiaobei's pace. Sweat kept pouring down his face and he was panting.

Heita helped Fu Jichang sit down.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Ji Xiaobei looked concerned.

Fu Jichang was very pleased and forced a smile, saying, "It's okay, you'll recover after a rest..."

"Master, let me carry you on my back!" Heita gritted his teeth in pain.

He really wanted to get hurt for his master.

"Heita, go find some dry firewood first. It's a bit cold!" Fu Jichang said with a pale face.

Heita agreed and ran to find dry firewood.

The sun shines through the thick branches, casting bits of golden light through the gaps. The wind in the mountains is still very cold.

A gust of wind blew by, and Fu Jichang couldn't help but shiver.

Goose bumps appeared on his forehead, and he tried hard to control his upper teeth from hitting his lower teeth.

It was so embarrassing to be like this in front of Ji Xiaobei.

"Do you have a fever?" Ji Xiaobei asked, a pair of hands already touching his forehead.

So hot!

Ji Xiaobei felt his pulse again and found it was beating very fast and his breathing was a little rapid.

Huang Po said that when you have a fever your heart rate will increase.

Ji Xiaobei took a quick look and saw that Heita had not come back yet, so he took out a bottle of antipyretic medicine and a bottle of mineral water from his sleeve.

Although I had seen Ji Xiaobei create a hill of potato seeds out of thin air before, I was still secretly surprised when I saw her take something out again.

Ji Xiaobei poured the powdery suspension into the bottle cap and asked Fu Jichang to take it.

Fu Jichang asked with a sly smile: "What is this? It looks like poison. Are you going to murder your husband?"

Ji Xiaobei rolled his eyes at him and said, "If I wanted to murder you, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. I could have killed you in a matter of minutes!"

Fu Jichang: You'd better get rid of me!

While Fu Jichang was still in a daze, Ji Xiaobei brought the medicine to his mouth. With his other hand, he held his chin and poured the pink potion into his mouth.

"Gudong!"

Fu Jichang frowned, then relaxed his brows: "What is this? It's a very unpalatable sweet!"

Ji Xiaobei ignored him and handed over another bottle of water: "Drink it!"

"Why is the glass bottle soft?" Fu Jichang pinched the bottle in confusion and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Drink water!" Ji Xiaobei said with a cold face.

She sat next to Fu Jichang and could already feel the heat radiating from his body. He must have a high fever.

He just pretended not to care on purpose so that Ji Xiaobei would think he was fine.

Ji Xiaobei had already seen through his intentions.

"Do you want to drink it yourself, or let me force you to drink it!" Ji Xiaobei said as he was about to pinch his chin again.

Fu Jichang stuck out his chin obediently, and Ji Xiaobei slapped him angrily.

"Go drink it yourself!"

Fu Jichang grinned slyly and handed the wine to Ji Xiaobei's mouth, asking her to drink it.

Ji Xiaobei's lips are cracked now, they used to be rosy and cute.

Ji Xiaobei didn't refuse and took a few sips.

Fu Jichang gulped down the drink with great satisfaction.

Heita was holding some dry firewood and walking towards this side, taking one step forward and one step back. When he looked up, he saw his master feeding Ji Xiaobei water.

Two people are so close to each other, how can I see that?

He turned his head hurriedly and walked backwards towards this side.

Perhaps, if the masters saw me, they would stop what they were doing.

The black tower retreated hesitantly and fell into a pit with a plop.

"Heita, what are you doing?" Fu Jichang hid the bottle in his arms and shouted at Heita.

This child is becoming more and more unreliable.

He was carrying a bundle of firewood and walking backwards. How could he, an adult, be so playful as a child?

Heita: It’s unfair. Do you think I want this?

Who told you to do those actions that are not suitable for children!

Heita was covered by a pile of firewood and was struggling in the pit.

Ji Xiaobei and Fu Jichang both laughed.

Ji Xiaobei couldn't bear it any longer. This kid had been working very hard and had been very dedicated along the way.

She stood up, walked over, and pulled Heita out of the hole.

Heita chuckled and said, "Thank you, Miss Ji. It's still Miss Ji who cares about me!"

After he finished speaking, he felt that what he said was a bit beyond the scope and looked at his master cautiously.

Fu Jichang was looking at him viciously.

"Miss Ji, please go and accompany my master. I'll go and make a fire." Heita went to make a fire with firewood.

Fu Jichang seemed to feel that he had talked too much and consumed too much energy. His head was still dizzy and he fell asleep leaning against a big tree unconsciously.

Ji Xiaobei took out the sheepskin mattress he had used on the road and covered him with it.
