Yun Shang took out the small change from the box and gave it to Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhang who had taken them in. "Aunt Liu, Aunt Zhang, thank you so much. Please accept this little money. My husband is seriously ill, so I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you for a while."

"This amount of money is a little small, but I don't have any more at the moment. I will repay you when my husband wakes up."

The two women were kind-hearted people and could not refuse, so they accepted the change.

Aunt Liu said happily, "Girl, we can only earn this little money in a year, and you gave us so much at once. How can we ask you for compensation?"

"You and your husband, just rest assured and stay at my house. I'll take care of your three meals a day."

"There are no extra rooms at your aunt Zhang's house. When your husband wakes up, let my old Liu carry him to my house. You and your wife can live in my house from now on."

Yun Shang was very grateful. "Then carry him over now. I have to stay with him. He can't be left without someone to take care of him."

Zhao Qiyan had been running a high fever, and Yun Shang stayed by his side without taking off her clothes. It was not until midnight that his body finally felt less hot.

Yun Shang was overjoyed and quickly got up to change the wet towel on his forehead, and then covered him with the quilt, fearing that he would catch a cold again as his fever had just subsided.

The night was getting deeper and the dew was heavier. It was also very cold early in the morning near the mountain. There was still some chill in the air when we woke up in the morning.

After the high fever subsided, Zhao Qiyan's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed slowly, and his breathing became longer and longer.

After Yun Shang breathed a sigh of relief, she also lay down on the head of the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

When Zhao Qiyan woke up, the first thing he saw was Yun Shang standing very close to him.

The girl, who always loved beauty, was wearing a plain coarse cloth dress from a farmer's home. Her hair was simply tied up, very plain. She didn't even have a silver hairpin, only a wooden hairpin loosely fixed.

He stared at Yun Shang for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what to do.

Not knowing that she was a time traveler, he tested her every day.

But when he really knew it, he was afraid that he had guessed right.

It was not until he fell off the cliff that he finally heard her admit her identity in person, but he suddenly didn't know how to face her.

Are you going to kill her?

It doesn't seem to be the case. She is not from the Xingchen Pavilion and has never done anything to harm Yu Country.

Do you want to arrest her?

The dungeon was damp and cold, and she was so fragile that she definitely couldn't bear it.

Besides, what's the point of arresting her? She definitely doesn't know anything. The only time travelers she knows are Meng Tai and Zhuo Fang, not as many as he knows.

Her body would be covered with red marks if she exerted even a little force, so how could she possibly withstand interrogation?

After thinking for a long time, Zhao Qiyan still hadn't decided what to do with Yun Shang, but they were husband and wife, so he should always protect her.

Feeling a burning gaze fixed on her face, Yun Shang slowly opened her eyes and met a pair of dark and clear eyes.

After being stunned for a moment, she immediately stood up happily and naturally put her hand on the man's forehead to check his temperature. "Husband, are you awake? That's great."

"The fever has stopped coming back. This quack doctor's medicine is really effective."

Zhao Qiyan hummed softly, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Where are Qi Chuan and Zhuo Fang? When we fell off the cliff, I saw them both jump into the water."

Yun Shang looked downcast. "I don't know either. Maybe we got separated. Aunt Liu said that when they found us, there were only the two of us. No one else was there."

"Oh, Aunt Liu is the mistress of this farm. It was Brother Liu and Aunt Liu who saved us."

Zhao Qiyan nodded and tried to sit up. Yun Shang hurried forward to support him. "My dear husband, please be careful with the wound on your shoulder. Just tell me what you want to do."

Zhao Qiyan turned his face away and said, "I want to go to the toilet..."

Yun Shang helped the man get off the bed. Zhao Qiyan moved around a bit and found that there was only an arrow wound on his shoulder, and everything else was fine.

He went to the back of the house to take care of it himself, and Yun Shang stood at the door waiting.

At this time, the sky was just getting light, and Brother Liu and Aunt Liu had already gotten up. Brother Liu was holding a machete in his hand and carrying a backpack, ready to go out.

Aunt Liu was also carrying a hoe and preparing to go out. Seeing Yun Shang at the door, she was very surprised. "Sister, why are you standing here? Why did you wake up so early today? Is your husband seriously ill again?"

As she spoke, she was anxious to go inside to check, but Yun Shang hurriedly stopped her and explained, "No, my husband has woken up and is much better now."

As he was speaking, Zhao Qiyan came back after relieving himself. He walked to Yun Shang. Although he was still bandaged, it did not affect his temperament.

He nodded slightly to the two of them and said, "Thank you very much for saving me. I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future."

The Liu couple waved their hands and said, "We're saving people, not for any gain from you, so stop thanking me."

"We are going to work on the ground now, and I would like to trouble you to look after my pillars."

Zhuzi is Brother Liu's son, only seven or eight years old, and he is still sleeping in the house at this time.

Yun Shang nodded and said, "Brother Liu, don't worry. I will help you watch the pillar and prevent him from running around."

After the two left, Yun Shang went to work at the stove. Zhao Qi Yan had been lying in bed for a few days and felt uncomfortable all over. Now that he had woken up, he didn't want to lie down anymore, so he put on his coat and leaned against the kitchen door to watch Yun Shang busy herself.

It was called a kitchen, but in fact it was just an open-air stove covered by a shed. One side was against the wall, and the other side was piled high with firewood, and the wind leaked on both sides.

Yun Shang was somewhat familiar with this kind of earthen stove. The luxurious life in the palace made her nervous every day. She had never seen any of those extravagant food and clothing, and was afraid that she would be discovered if she recognized the wrong one.

On the contrary, it was this poor farmyard that made her feel particularly at ease. She felt particularly comfortable in the earthen house with the same earthen walls as her grandmother's.

Perhaps it was because she had confessed her identity, she no longer had to consider whether what she said or did was in line with Lin Zhiwei's code of conduct. She could be herself to the fullest, so when she faced Zhao Qiyan now, she seemed to be more calm and at ease.

Yun Shang skillfully started a fire, only to find that she had not chopped the firewood properly. She hurriedly took the axe to chop the firewood. Her posture and method were correct, but the strength in her wrist was too weak, and the axe got stuck in the middle of the firewood and could not be pulled out.

She raised her foot and was about to kick when a big hand suddenly reached out from the side and took the axe from her hand.

Zhao Qiyan's slightly weak voice sounded in her ears, "Give it to me, I'll do it."
