"The rain has washed away the dirt on your body. Go back."

Su Wanning raised her head and looked at Bai Ye, who was holding an umbrella for her. "Now that we've gotten into a dead end, do we still have a chance of survival?"

Bai Ye extended his hand towards Su Wanning, "I don't know about others, but if it's you, I will protect you."

Su Wanning smiled slightly and put her hand on Bai Ye's hand.

After going down the mountain, Su Wanning was taken directly to the yard where Bai Ye was.

"There's hot water for bathing in the room. You've been caught in the rain, so go in and soak first to avoid catching a cold."

Su Wanning was pushed into the room by Bai Ye and saw a wooden bathtub with hot water and a set of clean clothes next to it.

After soaking for a while, he came out and drained the water in the wooden barrel.

Bai Ye saw Su Wanning come out and walked over with an umbrella, "Dinner is ready, go eat something, and stay and sleep with me tonight."

Su Wanning nodded, and after dinner she lay down on the bed with Bai Ye.

At midnight, Su Wanning developed a high fever.

Various scenes kept replaying in the dream, including the scene on the road to exile, her experiences at the Taoist temple, and the scene where she sawed off Ling Mao's leg.

He kept muttering something.

Bai Ye lit the candle on the bedside, reached out and touched Su Wanning's forehead, took out the pills he had prepared in advance, put them into Su Wanning's mouth, and asked her to swallow them.

He took out silver needles and pricked a few acupuncture points on Su Wanning to calm her nerves, and only then did she fall into a good sleep.

When Su Wanning woke up the next day, she felt dizzy.

Bai Ye walked into the room carrying a bowl of medicine. "You're awake. You had a fever last night. You must have caught a cold from the rain. Take some medicine first."

Su Wanning wanted to speak, but her throat felt a little sore when she opened her mouth.

He took the medicine from Bai Ye and drank it all in one gulp. He looked towards the door and saw that the rain outside had stopped.

Su Wanning got up from the bed and walked out.

Bai Ye stood behind Su Wanning and said, "The sky is clear."

The sky is clear.

The land in the village is all sandy, and there is almost no sign of rain.

Su Wanning returned to the courtyard where she was staying. Yueshu and Jinhuan were washing and scrubbing in the yard. When they saw her enter the yard, they walked over quickly.

"Miss, there's porridge hot in the pot. Do you want some now?"

Su Wanning nodded, and Yue Shusheng came out and put it on the table.

She looked at the recliner that Zhan Lingmao had made and said, "It's burned."

Yue Shu nodded, took the sword from her body and chopped it open on the spot, put it aside, poured some kerosene on it, and set it on fire on the spot.

He brought another stool and placed it under him, "He also touched something else and it was all ruined."

"No more." Jin Huan replied from the side.

Su Wanning didn't say anything else. She took the spoon and drank the porridge in the bowl mouthful by mouthful.

As soon as he finished drinking, Li Jingyu walked into the yard, took a look at the burning fire, came to Su Wanning, lifted Su Wanning's chin with his hand, clicked his tongue twice, took out the ointment from his sleeve, opened it, and prepared to apply it on Su Wanning.

"I can do it myself." Su Wanning stepped back.

Li Jingyu reached out and pulled Su Wanning back, "Don't move, you can't wipe it off because you can't see it."

Su Wanning hissed softly and was pulled in by Li Jingyu again, "Don't move. If the ointment is not applied properly, your face will get even more swollen."

"What are you doing?" Zhan Beiwang saw this scene when he came in from the gate of the courtyard.

He walked up and pulled Li Jingyu away, and the ointment on his hand fell to the ground.

After Li Jingyu stood firm, he straightened his clothes and looked at Zhan Beiwang, "Can't you see? Her face is so swollen, of course she's applying ointment.

But you, the ex-husband who took the initiative to bring the person who beat her to the yard, what did you do for Wan Ning?"

Zhan Beiwang clenched his fist, took out a handkerchief from his waist, and wiped Su Wanning's swollen face. "This is our husband and wife's business, no outsider should interfere."

Su Wanning had already felt pain when applying the medicine, and now that Zhan Beiwang was applying it, it was even more painful.

He reached out and knocked Zhan Beiwang's hand away. Zhan Beiwang's hand was opened and he saw that Su Wanning's face had turned red where he had touched it. "A Ning, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Li Jingyu looked at the medicine that had been scattered on the ground, picked it up, and looked at Zhan Beiwang, "You scattered the medicine. I believe you must have prepared some medicine as well."

After saying that, he said hello to Su Wanning and left.

Zhan Beiwang took out the ointment from his arms and said, "Aning, let me help you reapply it."

Su Wanning sat back on the stool and reached out to pick up the tea Yue Shu had poured for her. "I've already applied it today. Let's do it another day."

Zhan Beiwang looked at Su Wanning with a hurt expression, "Aning, I know it was my fault yesterday. I shouldn't have brought him here."

Su Wanning took a sip of tea and looked at Zhan Beiwang, "Sit down and talk."

Zhan Beiwang immediately sat down beside Su Wanning. Su Wanning poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Zhan Beiwang. "Actually, sometimes you don't have to say things that go against your will. You are a member of the Zhan family, and there is no way to change that. No matter what you say when you are angry, as long as there is any movement in the Zhan family, you will rush back in a hurry.

Actually, I am not that important in your heart, right? "

"No, Aning, you are very important to me." Zhan Beiwang immediately explained with a nervous look on his face.

"What if the Zhan family and I have to choose one?" Su Wanning looked at Zhan Beiwang calmly.

Zhan Beiwang opened his mouth but didn't answer the question in the end.

Su Wanning laughed at herself, "It's still early now, you can go to the city and buy two houses, and I will return all the things of your Zhan family.

Don’t let the Zhan family members come before me again, or I will kill them.”

"Aning." Zhan Beiwang hesitated to speak, looking at Su Wanning's expression, "Okay, I'll prepare it."

After saying that, he stood up and left the yard.

Su Wanning put down the teacup in her hand and said, "Jinhua, throw away this tea set."

He took out another set of teacups from the space and placed them on the table, "Use this set to make a new brew."

Jinhuan nodded and reached out to take it.

"Wan Ning, you are at home." Lu Qi was standing outside the yard and looking inside.

Su Wanning stood up and walked over, "Uncle, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Take advantage of these two days to go and check out the floor tiles. They will be shipped back soon. The furniture at your Uncle Jiang's house is almost done. After the beams are put up, the roof tiles will be ready that same day. The floor tiles will be installed the next day, and they will need to dry for a day."

Su Wanning nodded, "Okay, then let's go to the city today and bring back the floor tiles."

After Lu Qizhen left, Su Wanning called Jinhuan and Yueshu and took a carriage to the city.

Although it rained yesterday and it took a little longer than usual to get there, the road was still not difficult to walk on.

When the carriage arrived in the city, it was already noon. After eating some food in the tavern, they went to the place where floor tiles were sold.
