The daughter of the first wife grew up in the countryside and was extremely powerful

The azure blue robe made of fine fabric was already tattered. An arrow had pierced the man's right shoulder. The blood had dried, but he looked not in good condition.

Excessive blood loss and hypothermia, if he had been discovered later, either one of them would have cost him his life.

Meng Fanchu didn't dare to delay. If he waited any longer, it would be dark and the forest would be even more dangerous.

She struggled to help the powerless man up. Fortunately, she had been exercising by following her adoptive father to carry prey, otherwise she would not be able to carry the man away with her small body.

It took a lot of effort to bring the man back home. Two people were no match for one, and Meng Fanchu felt like his bones were about to fall apart.

She put the man on Jiang's father's bed, went to the kitchen outside to boil a pot of hot water, and wiped the man's face with a towel.

That handsome, almost demonic face appeared before her eyes again. It was a pity that those peach-like eyes were tightly closed. Otherwise, even Meng Fanchu, who had been accustomed to seeing it in her previous life, would probably be deeply attracted to it again.

In this life, she must protect this man well and help him have a smooth journey and a peaceful life.

Meng Fanchu discarded the messy thoughts in his mind, quickly took out his medicine box, took out the arrow for the man, changed his clothes, and used some secret medicine he had prepared. Because he was afraid that he would have a fever at night, he could only stay by his bed all night.

I fell asleep on the edge of the bed when it was almost dawn. In a daze, I felt someone pushing my arm.

It took Meng Fanchu a while to react. He woke up from his hazy sleep and raised his head to look at the man on the bed.

The man's face was very pale at this time, but fortunately he was awake. Meng Fanchu touched his forehead and confirmed that the fever had subsided.

"Are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?"

Meng Fanchu asked nervously.

In my previous life, I also brought the person back home, but I didn’t take it so seriously at that time. After removing the arrow and applying medicine, I went to rest.

It was not until the next day that we discovered that the man had been burned all night and was unconscious, so he rested for two days before he felt slightly better.

This time, I took good care of him all night and prevented him from having a fever, so he was able to wake up the next day.

"Who are you?"

When Shi Jinyan opened his eyes, he saw an unfamiliar environment, which looked like an ordinary home.

He thought of what he had been going through before, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. He wondered if this was also a trap set by that person. His secret guards might have been lured away and had not found him yet.

When I turned around, I found a little head lying beside the bed, so I curiously pushed the person's arm with my hand.

When everyone looked up, they found that it was a little girl.

Her hair was a little messy, and she wore it in a simple bun, looking like she wasn't yet of marriageable age.

But that face was not that of an ordinary peasant girl. Although there was a blush on her face caused by wind and frost, her facial features were too delicate and beautiful.

Her almond-shaped eyes were clear and bright, her slender eyebrows and long eyelashes were trembling slightly. She seemed very happy to see him wake up, with genuine joy in her eyes.

"I am the daughter of a hunter from these mountains. I saw you injured yesterday and brought you back. Your wound has been treated, so you should be fine."

The woman's clear voice sounded, but it did not make Shi Jinyan relax.

"Then... thank you so much. Do you have any other family members? I must personally thank you for saving my life."

She was a petite woman, so she probably didn't bring him out by herself. However, she noticed that the light in her eyes disappeared when she mentioned her family.

"A few days ago, Daddy and Mom went hunting in the mountains in the snow. They had an accident and are both gone. Now I'm the only one here."

Meng Fanchu was not pretending to be pitiful on purpose, but he felt a little sad when he was suddenly brought up.

Shi Jinyan was speechless, and a trace of pity arose in his heart.

"I brought you back from the mountains. I've been very strong since I was little, and I'm used to it from hunting in the woods with my father. But it still took a lot of effort to bring you back."

Meng Fanchu knew that this man was always suspicious, so he quickly explained.

"Are you hungry? The wound has been treated with the medicine I made myself, so it should be fine. I'll make you some vegetable porridge, so you can just eat some."

Meng Fanchu stood up and walked outside.

She didn't care what Shi Jinyan was thinking. Now that her life was saved, it didn't matter.

In his previous life, his secret guards came and took him away two days later, so she only needed to take care of him for two days.

Shi Jinyan knew that he had no other choice at this moment, and could only wait patiently for the secret guard to come find him.

Meng Fanchu's medicine was very effective. Apart from changing the medicine and delivering food every day, she did not talk to the man.

It wasn't until the next night, when she changed Shi Jinyan's medicine and brought him food, that the man took the initiative to speak:

"You saved me, and I will repay you in the future. What do you want?"

Looking at that serious face, Meng Fanchu felt a little sad. Yes, you will repay me, but with your life.

"Is anything okay?" Meng Fanchu asked innocently.

"Well, anything is fine."

"Then...give me money! I like money!"

In this way, you don’t need to have too much psychological burden.

Shi Jinyan's eyes were deep as he observed every expression on the woman's face. After a moment of silence, he suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll give you the money. In a few days, I'll have someone..."

"No, I'll be leaving here in a few days, so there's no need to ask anyone to come back." Meng Fanchu shook his head. "If we have a chance to meet again in the future, you can give me money! Are you rich?"

Of course she knew that as a prominent family in the capital, the Shi family, although the elders of the Shi family were no longer with us, had accumulated wealth for generations after all, which was beyond the reach of ordinary noble families.

It can be said that he is even richer than the imperial treasury.

Shi Jinyan nodded and forced a smile: "Yes, I am very rich, so you can have as much as you want. Then I will send someone to deliver it to you wherever you want to go."

Meng Fanchu still shook his head: "If we are destined to meet again, then you can give it to me again! Since you said you are so rich, then... I want one thousand taels of gold. Do you have it?"

Curious eyes looked at him, making Shi Jinyan feel a bit amused and helpless. Compared to his money, the noble ladies in the past were more interested in his status and personality. He didn't expect that this little woman would think he was only worth one thousand taels of gold.

"Yes, but if you don't tell me where you're going, and we never see each other again, I won't be able to give you this 1,000 taels of gold."

The woman grinned after hearing this, and her smile was like the winter sunshine, warming people's hearts.

"It doesn't matter. What's mine is mine after all. It's useless to force what's not mine."

After saying that, he didn't say anything else and left with the dishes he had eaten.
