A car accident, our family of three crossed

After nightfall, several dark shadows flew silently over the Lin Mansion and sneaked towards the northwest corner.

At this time, in the room, Mei was sitting on the couch, facing Zhou Huan who was leaning on the bed opposite her in silence.

The situation was critical last night and no one thought too much about it. This morning, because time was tight, she hurriedly brought him porridge. Everything was so natural.

However, at this moment, the two of them sat opposite each other, but could not find any topic to talk about, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.

In order to ease the embarrassment, Mei simply picked up "The Gourd" which was placed on the couch and started reading it. For a while, the room was so quiet that only the faint sound of turning pages could be heard.

Until outside the house, there was a rhythmic knocking sound on the window sill, very light, but enough to alarm the people in the house.

Mei suddenly became nervous and subconsciously looked at Zhou Huan, only to see him nod slightly, which showed that he was able to identify the person knocking on the window sill outside as his.

But even so, Mei still couldn't control her nervousness. She stood up and walked towards the window with heavy steps.

After hesitating for a long time, she finally mustered up the courage to open the window. Following the light, she saw clearly that the person standing outside the window was Zhou Yin.

At this point, she breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Guardian Zhou, come in quickly!"

"I'm sorry." Zhou Yin was also stunned when he saw her, and bowed slightly to her, then jumped into the house and came to Zhou Huan, "Boss, how are your injuries?"

"Here you are?" Zhou Huan held his chest and sat up straight. "It's okay."

Zhou Yin reached out to help him and took his pulse with his wrist.

Those who practiced martial arts all knew something about pulse diagnosis, and they were relieved when they saw that Zhou Huan had no internal injuries.

Zhou Yin turned around and bowed to Mei again, this time with more sincerity, "Thank you, Madam Mei, for rescuing me."

Although he didn't know the whole story and why the shopkeeper appeared in Madam Mei's room, he knew that the shopkeeper could spend a day here safely, which must be due to the help of Madam Mei.

Mei turned aside and refused to accept his full courtesy, saying, "I just did what I could, no need to thank me."

Zhou Yin didn't say anything else. He had already expressed his sincere gratitude. As for whether the other party accepted it or not, it didn't matter to him. In the end, he wouldn't have to repay this favor anyway.

He turned to Zhou Huan and said, "Boss, let's leave here first!"

"it is good."

Zhou Huan responded, and asked him to help him stand up and walk towards the window.

Before leaving, he turned around and said to Mei: "Thank you for the broken hairpin. I will have someone make a new one and send it to your house later."

A favor can't be offset by a random hairpin. I'll repay the favor slowly in the future!

After saying this, he gave her one last deep look, then turned around and let Zhou Yin carry him out of the window, disappearing into the night.

Mei was stunned for a moment, then she quickly walked to the window and looked at the dark night outside for a long time. After a long time, she closed the window and went back to sit on the couch, staring at the bed in a daze.

Tonight, she should sleep on the couch as usual! After all, her bed had just been slept in by a stranger, and it would feel weird if she slept on it again.

The next day, Mei got up early, opened the door and let two maids come in to pack their bags.

Xiao He saw a small bundle that she had never seen before, so she asked curiously, "Miss, what's in this bundle?"

"Don't move." Mei shouted at Xiao He who was about to open the bundle, and then snatched the bundle away, "Don't worry about this bundle."

The two maids were stunned for a moment. They always felt that their young lady was a little strange these past few days, but they couldn't tell what was wrong.

Mei stuffed the small bundle into a box she was going to take with her, locked it, and kept the key herself.

There was nothing else in the small bundle but her blood-stained clothes and some cotton strips that she had used to treat Zhou Huan's wound.

She thought that she would find an opportunity to dispose of these things when she returned to Pingyang County or on the way back.

After everything was packed, Mei went to the hospital to have breakfast with her grandmother, then got on the carriage and set off with the old lady's reluctant look.

They set out in the morning and just after noon, they, the master and his servants, returned to Pingyang County.

After resting in her own house for half a day, Mei invited Zhou Ru to go to Shangtang Village early the next morning.

This time I went to Shangtang Village to find Song Ning, not for anything else, but just for the menstrual belt issue.

She was skeptical about the menstrual belts that Song Ning had given her to take home for trial use. However, the days she went back to her grandparents' home happened to be during her inconveniences, so the menstrual belts came in handy.

At first she was just trying it out, but who would have thought that once she used this menstrual belt, she completely fell in love with it and felt that the ones she had used before were rubbish. There is no harm without comparison.

If she hadn't been waiting to celebrate her grandmother's birthday and couldn't leave for the time being, she would have wanted to come back immediately to discuss this matter with Song Ning.

In the carriage, Zhou Ru joked, "Sister Mei, you went to Lin County, but you didn't bring back any good things?"

"Yes! I brought two storybooks with me. If you are interested, I will show them to you later."

Lin County is not as prosperous as Pingyang County. Whatever is available there, Pingyang County also has it. There is nothing special about it.

"Storybook? Great, I'll borrow it from you later." Storybooks have always been the favorite of young women. Zhou Ru also likes to read some storybooks on weekdays. "What story does the storybook tell?"

"I haven't had the time to see it yet!" Mei said perfunctorily. Looking at Zhou Ru's innocent appearance, she might not know that her father was injured outside!

Yes, considering how much Zhou Huan loves his daughter, he would not let Zhou Ru know about this kind of thing.

But I am just an outsider, there is no need for me to say anything and add to the girl's worries by talking about such things.
