Xiaohuan is a good cook. Including the roasted snake meat, there are two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes and one soup.

She also made minced meat porridge and steamed smooth egg custard for Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan was very satisfied and ate so much that her belly was round.

While Xiaohuan was cleaning up the dishes, Shang Wan and Shitou worked together to clean up all the rats in the house and the cellar.

Shi Tou felt that Shang Wan's hearing was so sharp that it was terrifying. No matter where the mouse was hiding, as long as it made the slightest noise, Shang Wan could immediately and accurately pull the mouse out.

In just two quarters of an hour, all the mouse's descendants were trapped in the sack.

At Shang Wan's request, Shitou, with a wooden face, carried a sack of dead rats to the villagers to exchange for things. Unexpectedly, he actually got back two quilts, which were just right for sleeping at night.

Shang Wan, Xiaohuan and Yuanyuan slept in the main house, while Shitou slept alone in the west wing and was also responsible for keeping watch.

The roof was leaking light, the walls were leaking air, and there was a faint musty smell on the quilt. The resting environment was really not comfortable.

But because there were no zombies in this world, Shang Wan slept so soundly that when he was woken up by someone in the middle of the night, he almost broke the person's neck.

Fortunately, she was only confused for less than a second, and when she saw Xiaohuan's face clearly, she subconsciously let go.

Xiao Huan covered her neck and coughed twice. She didn't care about being scared or surprised, and said anxiously, "Madam, the young lady has a high fever!"

Her round, chubby little face was flushed red, but her lips were pale. When she touched her forehead and body, they were so hot that her hands were burning.

"It must be that the young lady was not used to the sudden change of place, and was blown by the wind at night, so she had a high fever." Xiaohuan was so distressed that her eyes were filled with tears. She said helplessly, "Madam, what should we do now?"

Shang Wan signaled her not to panic, "Go get a small bucket of well water first."

"Okay." Xiaohuan responded and ran out.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shang Wan opened her round little mouth and dripped a drop of spiritual spring water into it.

"Young Madam, the water is here!" Xiaohuan put the bucket on the table.

Shang Wan walked over, and while twisting the handkerchief to cover his face, he also dripped a drop of spiritual spring water into the bucket.

"What happened?" Shitou was awakened by the noise of Xiaohuan fetching water. Seeing that the light was on in the main room, he hurriedly put on his clothes and came over.

Because Shang Wan was inside, he didn't rush in rashly, but just stood by the window and asked.

"It's okay, go back to sleep." Shang Wan replied. She took turns testing the temperature of Yuanyuan's palms, soles of feet, vest, armpits, and forehead, and keenly felt the scorching temperature slowly decreasing.

Just be useful.

Shang Wan breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Shitou was still standing at the window, he asked him to go to the kitchen to boil some water for Yuanyuan to use for a bath.

Shitou went there without saying a word.

By the time everything was done, it was almost dawn.

Shang Wan's eyes were dark and he kept yawning due to sleepiness. He thought that raising a child was not easy.

Xiao Huan said considerately, "Madam, I will go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Please stay with the young lady for a while."

Shang Wan didn't hesitate to lie down, hugged the little ball of flesh, closed his eyes, and soon his breathing became even.

Yuanyuan smacked her lips in her arms, her little hands unconsciously clutching Shang Wan's collar.

Xiaohuan covered the two of them with a quilt, tiptoed out of the house, met Shitou's gaze, and raised her hand to point outside the yard.

The two walked outside the yard, and Shitou lowered his voice and asked, "How is the young lady?"

"The high fever has subsided. As long as it doesn't come back, it should be fine."

"That's good." The young master is still in prison, and the young lady can't get into trouble.

Shitou frowned and said, "Don't you think that after the young lady hit her head and woke up, she was like a different person? Her temperament changed too, and she didn't even cry after waking up."

Xiaohuan nodded in agreement.

Not to mention taking the initiative to help her, just take last night as an example, it is impossible for the former young lady to stay by the young lady's side all the time and change the young lady's handkerchief personally.

Before being kicked out by the Lu family, the young lady was only worried that the young lady might get sick, so she wouldn't even come to take a look at her, let alone take care of her personally.

"You also saw the young lady killing the snake last night, right?" Shitou raised his hand to gesture to Xiaohuan, "It was such a big snake. When I was skinning the snake last night, I secretly tried with a dagger. I couldn't do it at that distance, but the young lady killed the snake with just a stick as thick as her little finger. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it at all."

Xiaohuan also recalled the scene last night. She saw Shang Wan throw the wooden stick out with her own eyes. She didn't even look out the window when she threw it.

Shitou stroked his chin and wondered, "How can a young lady who can't even carry anything on her shoulders or hands have such great skills? I never realized it before."

When she was in the Lu family, every time she was bullied by the people from the first and second houses, the young lady would just cry like a punching bag, not knowing how to resist at all. If it weren't for the young master protecting her, the young lady would have been tortured to death by the lady and the people from the two houses.

"You also know that the young lady is a thoughtful person. She might have something hidden." Xiao Huan sighed, "We used to have the protection of the Lu family, but now we have been driven out by the Lu family, and the young master is in jail. The young lady is still counting on the young lady. If the young lady doesn't stand up for herself, we really can't live like this."

Shitou felt upset when he heard this. "You take good care of the young lady and the young lady. I'll go to the city to ask around and see how the young master's case is going. By the way, I'll also look for places that can hire helpers and earn some money."

Although I used the silver hairpin to exchange food with the villagers yesterday, that little bit of food would only be enough for two days at most if I eat it sparingly. I can't just sit there and eat it all.

Xiao Huan said, "You should have breakfast first before going. You will have more strength after you have a full stomach."

"Okay." Shitou nodded, leaned close to Xiaohuan and whispered, "After I leave, you must follow the young lady closely."

He emphasized the words "never leave" very much. Xiaohuan was stunned at first, then she realized what he was saying and her expression suddenly became complicated.

The young mistress of his family had always disliked the young master's frail health and was worried that he would die early, so she had long been thinking of having an affair. Shitou was worried that the young mistress would abandon the young lady and run away.

Shang Wan, who was sleeping on the kang in the main room, could easily hear the two people's low-voice conversation clearly.

In the last days, human genes have evolved and all aspects have been significantly improved. Shang Wan is even a superpower. Although his superpowers are not combat-related, his skills are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

According to the Great Zhou Dynasty, Shang Wan's current strength is equivalent to that of a martial arts master with profound internal strength.

Yesterday she deliberately did not hide her skills, just to see how Xiaohuan and Shitou would react.

Now that the reactions of both of them did not exceed her expectations, she curled the corners of her lips, gently poked the little ball of flesh that was sleeping soundly in her arms, closed her eyes and really fell asleep.

Whether it is to survive or to save people, you must first keep your spirits up.
