Quick Wear: I and the Villain Beat the Scum Together

Chapter 36: Village Girl vs. Educated Youth Children 2

Yu Ye woke up the next day, and when he woke up he felt like he had been fished out of the water.

Is he still alive? Yuye's head felt heavy. But before he could calm down, he saw a young girl holding a bowl and squatting in front of him.

"You're awake. Get up and take your medicine. Then eat something." Si Ke handed the already lukewarm bowl to his lips, motioning him to drink quickly.

Yu Ye looked at the bright girl in front of him. He knew that she was Sike, from the same village as him, and had a miserable life.

After drinking the bowl, Yuye's throat felt much better. He whispered, "Thank you! Did you save me? Why... are you here?"

It was still the same cave as before, but with a few more things, including pots, pans, and utensils.

Si Ke did not hide it and told her mother how she sold her and how she escaped and came here.

Yu Ye frowned when he heard this. Every family has its own problems. He used to feel that he was miserable, but there are always miserable people in this world. It’s just that he hasn’t met them yet.

"Well, I'm also homeless now and want to stay here temporarily. You won't chase me away, will you? I will take care of you." After telling the story, Si Ke said pitifully.

People in this era were quite conservative, so Si Ke felt it was better to ask. After all, she still hadn't figured out the person's personality. Just because she didn't care didn't mean others didn't mind either.

"No." Yu Ye said, this cave is not his.

"Well, I'll go make chicken soup for you, wait a moment!" Si Ke said and walked out of the cave happily.

Yu Ye looked at her back, then at the herbs on her body, and a warm feeling suddenly came over him. Perhaps no one had ever cared about his life or death, let alone… taken care of him.

So, from that day on, this cave became their home. From the initial awkwardness and awkwardness of getting along, to the increasingly harmonious relationship later on.

Every day, Si Ke would go out to collect herbs, catch chickens, and pick wild fruits to nourish Yu Ye. When she had time, she would go back to the Si and Yu families, not to argue with them, but to get some clothes for her and Yu Ye, and other necessities.

Of course, this trip was not in vain, at least I heard a lot of things.

Si Ke ran away, and the old bachelor naturally wanted to ask Si's mother to return the betrothal gift. Si's mother had no choice but to return the money. However, this incident became known to the whole village. Naturally, everyone started to criticize Si's mother and treated her as a joke.

And that's not all. The original owner used to do all the housework, collecting grass for the pigs, feeding them, washing clothes, and cooking. Although the house was poor, it was clean. Now that the man has run away and the daughter-in-law hasn't found a wife, there's naturally no one to do the housework. Both sons are lazy and gluttonous, so all the work now falls to Mother Si, leaving her with endless complaints.

Si Ke sneered. This is what they call "evil will be punished by evil." Don't you like your two sons? Serves you right!

Yu Ye spent a full half month recuperating from his injury. A few days ago, he felt that he was almost well enough and planned to go out with Si Ke to see if they could hunt some small animals to make her less tired, but he was stopped by Si Ke.

He also said that if he went with her until his injury was fully healed, he would become a burden to her, and successfully stopped Yu Ye.

Yu Ye was actually worried, and he worried every day. This was deep in the mountains, and there were not only aggressive beasts like wild boars, but also many venomous snakes. He was afraid that if Si Ke went out, he would never come back.

However, what he didn't know was that for Si Ke, no matter how ferocious the beast was, it would be seeking death if it came in front of her.

Bringing Yu Ye along wasn't a burden, she was just afraid that he would see how she hunted and be scared away.

"Yuye, can you weave a frame?" Tian Sike asked after dragging the bamboo back.

"Yes!" For farmers, basket weaving is the most basic skill, and almost every household knows how to do it.

"Your injury has healed, hasn't it? Here's a task for you: weave a few more bamboo baskets, backpacks, and so on. I'll go pick some herbs and we'll carry them to the county town to sell!" Si Ke said. She discovered that this mountain was truly a primeval forest, where no one had ever come to pick herbs. There were countless medicinal herbs, including some extremely precious herbs, which should be worth a lot of money.

"I'd better go with you to pick them! When I have nothing to do in the evening, I'll weave these things into a backpack." Yu Ye was still worried.

But then Si Ke asked, "Do you know those herbs?"

Yuye shook his head honestly, but said stubbornly: "I don't know it, you can teach me, and then I will know it after you teach me."

"Yuye, it's not that I don't want to teach you, it's just that teaching while picking is too slow. And some herbs require special methods to be picked, keeping the medicine intact so that you can sell it for a good price. You don't want to stay in this cave like a savage forever, do you? Do you want to go back to school and continue your studies? Once we make enough money, we'll rent a house in the county town, and you can go back to school. Okay?" Alas! They are penniless now, they are really too poor. Si Ke wants to get rich as soon as possible.

"But it will be very hard for you, and it's very dangerous in the mountains." Yuye still disagreed. He no longer had the same desire to study as before, but was only worried about her safety.

"It won't be dangerous. When I was learning this from the herbalist, I also learned how to avoid danger in the mountains. You see, every time I go out, I always come back unscathed. But since you say I'm working hard, how about this? From now on, selling the herbs will be your responsibility," Si Ke said with a smile, but it was just a lip service to make him feel better. As for the early stages, she wouldn't let Yu Ye go alone. He wasn't familiar with the herbs and could easily be ripped off.

After discussing and deciding on this, the next day, Yuye got up early in the morning and started weaving bamboo baskets.

Si Ke also went into the mountains, not only to find medicinal herbs, but also some wild fungus, mushrooms, etc. If they were confirmed to be non-toxic, they could be picked and sold for money, or kept for themselves.

On that day, Si Ke strolled back and forth in the mountains three times, and the things she collected were enough for her and Yu Ye to go to the county town.

Before dawn the next day, the two well-prepared people loaded their backpacks and started down the mountain.

At this time, some villagers were already busy preparing breakfast, but there was no one on the main road.

They had to take a bus to go to the county town. Although they were carrying a lot of things, they were penniless and didn't even have enough money to buy a bus ticket.

In desperation, Si Ke discussed with the bus driver and finally wanted to give him a pheasant to sell for money, but the driver refused. After all, the ticket was only a few cents, and the pheasant was too expensive.

However, they were finally allowed to get on the bus.

So, the two finally boarded the first bus to the county town.
