"you wanna die!"

Unable to bear it any longer, Jiang Changtian grabbed an empty bowl from the table and smashed it.

This action startled both Lin Shuyun and Doctor Yang.

"What's wrong, my husband? Don't you like the coal briquettes I picked up?"

The energy suddenly stopped, and Lin Shuyun, still somewhat dazed, glanced at the coal ball that had managed to dodge in time and asked Jiang Changtian.

Jiang Changtian then realized what he had just done, and lowered his head, his expression flickering.

"No, my hand just slipped."

He could understand cat language, but he couldn't say it out loud; after all, such a thing was too incredible.

The coal ball, terrified, screamed and continued spewing coal from three meters away.

"Heh, you cripple, try skiing again! You're not allowed to touch the woman I've set my sights on!"

Lin Shuyun is the woman it chose. What is this cripple trying to do by touching her like that?

Jiang Changtian clenched his fists, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.

Damn cat.

Lin Shuyun thought he was not feeling well, so she touched Jiang Changtian's forehead with her hand, and then suddenly realized what was going on.

"Oh, husband, are you in a hurry to relieve yourself? Let's go outside."

After saying that, Lin Shuyun quickly called Doctor Yang outside, afraid that he would get impatient.

Dr. Yang put down his pen, stroked his beard, and said, "Young people often have a short temper when they need to urinate."

Jiang Changtian gritted his teeth: Damn it!

Once outside the door, Doctor Yang handed the written prescription to Lin Shuyun.

He left two bottles of external wound medicine, gave instructions on the dosage, and then prepared to leave.

"Dr. Yang, shall I take you home?"

Lin Shuyun went to unload the things from the donkey cart.

She had just tied the donkey to the shed in the yard, and hadn't had time to unload the things inside yet.

Doctor Yang looked around the small, dilapidated courtyard and shook his head.

"No need, it's not far, I can walk back by myself. It'll be good for my health. You should take good care of your husband."

Of course, it wasn't because he was afraid of riding in the car driven by Lin Shuyun.

After Dr. Yang left, Lin Shuyun went to lock the courtyard gate and then went to cook.

Lin Shuyun's mouth was watering just looking at the rice and noodles; she hadn't eaten any staple food for the past two days and always felt hungry.

She made braised pork, stir-fried a vegetable dish, and steamed white rice.

While cooking, Coal Ball would climb onto the stool under the stove and occasionally bark at Lin Shuyun.

"Woman, you look absolutely captivating when you cook!"

"Woman, you smell so good! I'm getting a little interested in you!"

Lin Shuyun thought it was starving, so as soon as the braised pork was ready, she fed it a piece of coal.

Coal Ball's pupils dilated, and it spun around in place before barking even more enthusiastically at Lin Shuyun.

"Meow meow meow, woman, I love you! I, the cat king, hereby declare that you are now my woman!"

Jiang Changtian, who was in the next room, heard the commotion and wished he could strangle the slutty cat.

Before it dies, whisper in its ear that cats and humans are not the same species and that there is no future for them.

"time to eat!"

Lin Shuyun brought in the food and saw Jiang Changtian sitting on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), radiating...

anger?

What's wrong? You're not happy that there's hope for your leg to heal?

"You're recovering quite quickly. It's because you're young and healthy. How does it feel to sit up? Does it hurt? Would you like to try getting out of bed?"

Regardless of whether he was happy or not, Lin Shuyun placed the food on the table and, under the pretext of doing so, reached out and grabbed Jiang Changtian's hand.

There was no reaction at all.

what happened?

Why is this energy treasure sometimes working and sometimes not?

"I've tried before, but I still can't get off the ground." Jiang Changtian looked at her as she naturally took his hand, his eyelashes trembling.

"Oh, then I'll bring it over and we can eat together."

Lin Shuyun released him, set up the kang table, and brought over two plates of dishes and rice, placing them on the kang table.

A bowl filled with braised pork was placed on the table on the ground for the coal briquette.

Jiang Changtian just broke another bowl, and since there weren't any extra bowls for the two dishes, she had to eat with Jiang Changtian. She forgot to buy a few more bowls.

The two sat facing each other, and Lin Shuyun quickly ate her rice with her head down.

She was starving; after two days in this world, she was finally getting a decent meal.

Jiang Changtian picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth. It was fragrant, soft, and chewy. He couldn't help but glance at Lin Shuyun.

Seeing Lin Shuyun looking over, he lowered his eyes again and picked up the vegetarian dishes next to him.

Lin Shuyun thought he would ask where the money came from, but Jiang Changtian didn't ask at all. This man was quite good at pretending.

After finishing her meal and feeling full, Lin Shuyun finally spoke.

"I forgot to tell you, I was lucky enough to dig up a ginseng root on the mountain today and sold it for money, so I have money to pay for your doctor's treatment. I also bought a donkey cart, which is tied up in the yard."

"Here's the rest of the silver. Do you want to take it?"

As she spoke, Lin Shuyun placed a fifty-tael note and some other loose change on the kang table.

She certainly wouldn't take out the remaining seven hundred taels; after all, money is tempting, and she felt at ease keeping the money she earned herself a secret.

Moreover, she estimated the prices in the small rural town and realized that fifty taels was quite a lot.

It's quite a good deal to test this cheap husband for fifty taels.

Jiang Changtian looked at the silver note without any reaction, and said, "Just keep it. Thank you. I'm the one who's dragging you down..."

"You're welcome. Eat and get some rest. I'm exhausted today."

Lin Shuyun was just being polite. She quickly put the banknotes and loose silver into her sleeve, then picked up the bowls and chopsticks and went to wash them.

Jiang Changtian felt inexplicably better as he watched her retreating figure.

Lin Shuyun washed the dishes and pots and started processing the ten pounds of meat she bought today. She had used about two pounds to make braised pork, so there were about eight pounds left.

There were also five or six large bones that hadn't been touched.

"It would be great if we had a refrigerator; it's such a hassle to let it rot in this hot weather."

Lin Shuyun muttered to herself that she had been busy for too long today and didn't want to make anything fancy, so she simply put the remaining pork and bones in the sauce and braised them.

The seasonings are a bit limited, but it'll have to do.

After finishing these tasks, it was already dark. Lin Shuyun washed herself as usual and brought a basin of water to Jiang Changtian as well.

Jiang Changtian felt less embarrassed watching her wipe his legs and feet than he had yesterday, but his ears still felt a little hot.

Once is never enough. Tonight, Lin Shuyun will sleep on the kang as usual, taking the opportunity to absorb energy, hehehe.

Coal Ball followed along, meowing, and jumped onto the kang table.

Jiang Changtian pursed his lips and suddenly said, "I'm not used to cats on the kang (a heated brick bed)."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shuyun placed the coal ball on the table on the ground. "Good boy, Coal Ball, you can sleep on the table. Tomorrow, your sister will make you a nest."

Coal Ball grumbled: "You cripple, you ugly man, you scheming man..."

Jiang Changtian spoke again, "Isn't it a bit noisy?"

Lin Shuyun: "Stop yelling, Coal Ball. If you keep yelling, you won't get any meat tomorrow."

Coal Ball shut up as expected.

The room was pitch black, and Jiang Changtian couldn't help but smile.

Perhaps it was because he knew his leg could be cured that Jiang Changtian felt more relaxed than ever before, and he quickly fell asleep.
