As the sun sets, the night slowly begins to cover half of the sky.

Lin Yiran turned around and said to Liu Yu: "My home is at the entrance of the village. You can rest at my house tonight."

Liu Yu nodded, the evening breeze blew his bangs, slanting under his sword-like eyebrows, and his two phoenix eyes stared at Lin Yiran with piercing intent.

Looking at his handsome face that made people dare not look directly at him, Lin Yiran immediately looked away, and a blush on her face quietly flew onto her cheek without knowing when.

She coughed lightly and said softly, "Sir, please follow me."

A group of people, along with two cats and a dog, walked along the path into the village towards home.

As Lin Yiran walked, he looked back towards the back mountain, and only felt relieved after confirming that there was no one there.

He took Liu Yu to the door of his house.

Knocked on the door a few times.

Lin's mother, who was busy cooking in the kitchen, heard the knock on the door and hurried out to open it.

The door opened with a crash and Lin's mother stuck her head out.

Seeing that it was her daughter, she immediately had a reproachful look on her face and asked, "Why did you come back so late? Have you found the kitten's mother?"

Before Lin's mother could react, Lin's second brother, supporting a pale and handsome young man, rushed in from behind Lin Yiran, followed by two cats and a dog.

Lin Yiran carefully checked the back mountain again and closed the door only after confirming that there was nothing unusual.

Mother Lin was stunned and hadn't reacted yet, when Lin Yiran's slightly anxious voice rang out: "Mom, please clean up a room as soon as possible so that this young master can rest."

Although Lin's mother was full of doubts about this strange young man, out of trust in her daughter and son, she nodded slightly and resisted the urge to ask.

"Then mom will go and clean it up now."

After Lin's mother left, Lin Yiran went to the kitchen to make a bowl of sour plum soup with honey and brought it to Liu Yu, "Drink some sour plum soup, it will quench your thirst."

Liu Yu didn't feel it just now, but after sitting down, he felt that his throat was so dry that he couldn't even saliva. At this moment, the bowl of rose-red drink called sour plum soup that Lin Yiran brought to him completely solved his urgent problem.

He didn't bother to be polite with Lin Yiran. He just picked up the bowl and started drinking it in big gulps.

Originally, he didn't have much hope for this so-called sour plum soup. It was impossible for this poor family to treat him with anything good. As long as it could quench his thirst, it would be enough.

But when he drank it, he realized that his thinking was a bit narrow.

The taste of this sour plum soup is sweet and refreshing, cool and sour, with a strong fruity aroma, like a fresh breeze, lightly blowing across the taste buds.

The cool and sweet liquid slid down the throat into the stomach, instantly cooling the throat and lungs that were about to catch fire.

He slowly exhaled a breath of cool air with the scent of plum blossoms, and he felt like he was alive again.

It's just that he drank too quickly just now, and before he could come to his senses, he had finished it all.

When I came to my senses, I realized that the bowl was empty.

Liu Yu stared at the empty bowl in a daze.

He had never been a person who paid much attention to food, but the taste of this bowl of drink today was really beyond his expectations.

Lin Yiran saw him sitting there motionless, staring at the empty bowl in a daze.

I secretly wondered, is it because the sour plum soup doesn't suit his taste? Should I make him another cup of tea? I have to serve this golden thigh well.

Who knows, maybe I can really rely on him to avenge my second brother.

"Sir, do you dislike this sour plum soup? How about I make you another cup of tea?"

Lin Yiran asked tentatively.

Liu Yu came back to his senses, looked at Lin Yiran and said with a smile: "Thank you, this sour plum soup is delicious, sweet and sour, and it quenches thirst. If there is any more, I would like to drink another bowl."

“That’s good.” Lin Yiran heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “Then I’ll make you another bowl.

"She took the empty bowl from Liu Yu's hand and went to the kitchen.

Looking at Lin Yiran's pretty back, Liu Yu was stunned and a little dazed.

This girl is not only pretty, but also kind-hearted. She is very considerate of a refugee like me.

Not only did she prepare such delicious sour plum soup for herself, she also planned to make tea for him.

Tea is as precious as gold and not something that ordinary people can afford.

Liu Yu was deeply moved.

After drinking a bowl of sour plum soup to cool his burning throat, Liu Yu stood up, walked to the door, put his hands behind his back and looked around the farmyard again.

Although they lived in a thatched house, the courtyard was kept very clean and tidy, especially the sweet-scented osmanthus tree at the east corner, which added a touch of freshness and elegance to the whole courtyard.

The vegetables in the garden are well taken care of. They are big and have fresh green leaves. They look appetizing.

It seems that although the owner of this house is not rich, he is very hardworking and knows how to enjoy life.

Just as he was admiring the farm scenery, Lin Yiran handed him a bowl of sour plum soup.

Liu Yu nodded in thanks, took the bowl of sour plum soup from Lin Yiran's hand, and looked at the transparent liquid that was glowing rose red under the setting sun.

He couldn't help but lower his head and sniff.

A cool breath with a strong scent of plums rushed into my nostrils.

It made him feel that his mind suddenly became much clearer.

He picked up the bowl and took a sip.

He slowly closed his eyes and savored it carefully.

The smell was so delicious that he felt as if he was in a plum garden.

Fresh purple-red plums hang on the trees one by one.

Each one has crystal clear dewdrops.

The cool and sweet mountain spring water rushes around the plum garden.

Refreshing, sharp and fragrant.

She is like a graceful and elegant woman with a straightforward and smart personality, not at all clingy like the women from the south of the Yangtze River.

Liu Yu stared at Lin Yiran in a trance. Isn’t the woman in front of him such a person?

Just when Liu Yu was lost in thought, Lin Yiran turned around and looked at his second brother, who was sweating profusely.

"Second brother, go to the kitchen and have a bowl of sour plum soup," Lin Yiran urged.

"Okay," Brother Lin agreed readily. I never get tired of drinking this sour plum soup from my little sister.

Just then, Lin's mother walked out of the main house with a brand new gown in her hand. Lin Yinan took a look and saw that it was the royal blue gown she gave to Lin's father.

Mother Lin mustered up her courage and walked up to Liu Yu. "Sir, this gown is new, and the fabric is not as luxurious as the one you are wearing. If you don't mind, you can put it on in a while."

Mother Lin's voice trembled a little.

The aura of the young man in front of her was so strong that she hardly dared to look up at him. Although the black clothes he wore were torn, dirty and wrinkled, the fabric was obviously extraordinary and it glowed brightly under the sunlight.

Coupled with his tall and straight figure, he looks noble at first glance.

"Don't be nervous, auntie. I'm just an ordinary person. Thank you for your kindness."

Liu Yu quickly replied, "I'll wash up and change into it soon. I like this color very much."

Liu Yu took the clothes from Lin's mother's hand and opened it with gratitude on his face. As soon as he opened it, he was stunned and a trace of shock flashed across his handsome face.

I never expected that this dress is so top-notch in both workmanship and fabric.

The fabric was actually silk. Although the density was not as high as the one he was wearing, it was already very good. Although there were only some simple auspicious cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs of the clothes, the embroidery work was comparable to that of the embroiderers in the palace.

Liu Yu immediately became curious about this family.

The little girl had learned medical skills at a very young age. Although I didn't know how she saved me, I had a strong feeling that my injuries had mostly healed, the wounds didn't hurt much anymore, and my strength had also recovered a little.

Even the little white dog in their family was incredibly strong. It was able to move a huge rock weighing several hundred kilograms with just its own strength.

The little girl's brother is also a handsome man with elegant conversation. He is obviously a young talent who is well-read.

Even the hostess has a graceful and gentle temperament. Although she is already the mother of several children, her skin is tight and smooth, comparable to that of a well-maintained mother.

There was a hint of shock on his face. This family was not an ordinary family.

Seeing that her mother was so nervous that she was stuttering, Lin Yiran hurried over to smooth things over, "Mom, have you cleaned up the house?"

"Yes, it's all packed up. Let this young master go to the main house to rest in a while."

Lin's mother's arrangement was very much in line with Lin Yiran's wishes. The main house was where the head of the family lived, and arranging Liu Yu to live in the main house fully demonstrated the host family's extreme importance to him.

"Aunt, don't call me Young Master anymore. It's too formal. My last name is Liu and my nickname is Yuhua. You can just call me Yuhua." When Liu Yu saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Then I'll call you Yuhua," Lin's mother was infected by Liu Yu's smile and said boldly.

I thought to myself that this young man looked scary, but after getting to know him, he turned out to be quite easy-going!

"Of course," Liu Yu replied with a smile.

"Then can I call you Brother Yuhua?" Lin Yiran came over and asked with a smile.

"Of course you can!" Liu Yu's face froze with laughter. His title of cold-faced god of war would probably be replaced soon.

Lin Yiran looked at the stiff smile on his face. His facial expression seemed extremely inconsistent. It was obvious that this person didn't like to smile.

She stopped teasing him and looked at Lin's mother: "Mom, we have been running around all day and are hungry. Let's eat. I see that you have already prepared the food in your kitchen."

"Mom only made some simple dishes. I didn't know Yuhua was coming at that time, so the dishes are a bit shabby. Come with me and see if we need to buy some more dishes." Mother Lin said embarrassedly.

"No need to prepare anything else, just eat something casually," Liu Yu declined hurriedly.

"Well, now that you're at my house, you have to listen to me and stay here. Eat whatever I cook for you. You should follow the host's instructions, understand?"

Lin Yiran smiled and tried to persuade her. She didn't have time to wait for her mother and Liu Yu to argue. They had been running around for the whole afternoon and everyone was hungry.

Besides, this golden thigh is here, she has to entertain him well, so she told Brother Lin, "Brother, you stay with Brother Yuhua and talk for a while, I will go and prepare dinner with mother."

After saying this, he dragged Lin's mother into the kitchen.

Lin Erge and Liu Yu were left looking at each other.
