I traveled back to ancient times, but I was able to lie down and relax.
Chapter 19 My name is Song Chen
Liu Nanjia was exhausted and it took her a long time to recover.
Looking at the person lying on the bed in front of him, he felt an itch to reach out and ask for the money he had promised.
That's right, now this person looks more like glittering silver in her eyes.
There's nothing she can do; she's just too poor right now.
Besides, treating his injuries later will cost money!
But when she saw Liu Sirou blinking her big eyes next to her, she gave up the idea.
Well, she'd better not do anything too outrageous in front of her younger sister, lest she set a bad example.
"Sis, what happened to this person? He's badly injured, is he going to die?"
Liu Sirou's brows were furrowed, and she looked worried.
Liu Nanjia couldn't help but find it both funny and heartbreaking.
This child is probably thinking of his deceased parents.
"No, he was just talking to me. He must have fallen asleep from exhaustion. And Doctor Li will be here soon and will be able to save him."
Liu Nanjia comforted her.
Then she decided that, considering her younger sister's concern for him, she should go all the way and be a good Samaritan.
So, they brought a basin of clean water and gave the man a quick wash.
After wiping his face clean, she realized that he was not very old; he looked like a teenager, but because he was tall, she mistook him for an adult.
A boy, covered in wounds, lay in the mountains. No one knew what had happened, but it couldn't have been anything good.
Thinking of this, Liu Nanjia's sympathy overflowed again.
'Never mind, let's not rush him. Let him recover from his injuries before he leaves,' she thought.
At this moment, Liu Yanxi also returned with Doctor Li.
Lately, Dr. Li has been constantly being dragged around by people, to the point that he's lost his temper and is even thinking that he should start exercising.
Only after seeing the person lying on the bed did he become serious and carefully examine the injury.
While looking at him, she asked, "Nan Jia, where did you get this person? He's badly injured."
"I found it while I was gathering herbs in the mountains today. After all, it was a human life, and I couldn't bear to leave it there to die, could I?"
Doctor Li nodded and continued the treatment. He then sent Liu Nanjia and Liu Sirou out, leaving only Liu Yanxi to help him.
He needed to take off the man's clothes to see how many injuries he had, which was definitely not suitable for the two young girls to see.
Liu Nanjia didn't really care. She wasn't a real person from ancient times. What hadn't she seen?
However, there's really no need to worry about these things at this time. Just help change the water used to clean the wound.
After more than half an hour, Physician Li finally let her in. By then, the person had been dressed in Liu Yanxi's clothes, but they didn't fit quite right and were a bit too short.
"This young man was seriously injured, but fortunately there were no deep wounds. Most of them were superficial injuries. He must have rolled down the mountain."
Doctor Li paused for a moment, then continued, "But there are a few wounds that look like knife wounds to me."
Liu Nanjia wasn't particularly surprised and said, "Perhaps we've encountered bandits."
Li Langzhong thought it made sense. The man was young and didn't look like someone who had committed a heinous crime, so he felt relieved.
Nodding, he said, "That's possible. I misunderstood. As long as it doesn't harm the village, it's fine. He's unconscious partly because of his injuries and bleeding, and partly because he's hungry. He probably hasn't eaten properly in a long time. You should give him something easy to digest first."
Then, somewhat embarrassed, he said, "I'm not very skilled, I can only apply some medicine and bandage his wound. He sprained his ankle, and it's quite serious. I'm not sure if any bones are broken. It would be best if we could take him to town to get checked out when he wakes up. I'll come back tomorrow to change his dressing."
Liu Nanjia said she understood and paid for the medicine. Since it was just some medicine for the wound, the medical expenses were not expensive.
After seeing Dr. Li off, Liu Nanjia started preparing dinner. Thinking of the patient in the room, she cooked millet porridge and steamed an egg custard with the eggs from today.
As for them, they made a few thin pancakes with mixed flour, then stir-fried some wild vegetables, which they could eat wrapped in the pancakes.
Dinner was ready, and Liu Nanjia was wondering how to get that person to eat when she heard Liu Sirou call out, "Sister, that brother is awake!"
Liu Nanjia rushed in to check and saw that the person lying on the bed had indeed opened their eyes, but their gaze was somewhat blank.
Upon seeing her enter, he seemed to recognize her as the person who had just saved him and struggled to get up.
Liu Nanjia quickly pressed him down. What if the wound that had been bandaged so carefully reopened?
"You should lie still and not move around. Now that you're awake, I'll go get you some water and food. Little sister, go eat, I'll take care of things here."
He turned and went out, then brought in a bowl of water and a bowl of porridge.
After putting down what you're holding, find something to prop up the boy's head, and then give him water.
The young man was clearly embarrassed when a girl personally fed him water. His face, which was pale from blood loss, flushed slightly. He thanked her in a low voice before obediently drinking the water.
Liu Nanjia found his expression amusing: "Don't worry, I carried you down here just now. This is the countryside, there aren't so many taboos here."
It wasn't that she didn't want her brother Liu Yanxi to take care of her, but after seeing how Liu Yanxi fed his little sister medicine, she never let him do such a thing again.
I don't know why someone who seems so smart is so clumsy when it comes to housework.
Moreover, this body is only 12 years old, still very young, and with a soul from the future, she cares even less about this little bit of contact with men.
After feeding the boy a bowl of water and a bowl of porridge, Liu Nanjia said, "The doctor said you've been hungry for a long time and shouldn't eat too much at once. You should rest for a while. I'm going to eat now. There's still some porridge left; I'll give you some more later."
The boy nodded and watched Liu Nanjia leave.
After the three siblings finished their own dinner, they made a bed for Liu Yanxi in the small room next door, using the same table from the old school.
After they finished tidying up, they went to the study together.
The boy ate something and rested for a while. He seemed much better and thanked them when they came in.
"Thank you so much for saving me, young lady. I am deeply grateful."
Liu Nanjia quickly waved his hand: "No need, no need, I saved you only because of the money you promised."
Liu Yanxi only then realized that there was such a thing, and looked at his younger sister in surprise.
The boy was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered and said, "Of course, I wonder where my original clothes are?"
Liu Yanxi took the clothes he had changed out of and, at the boy's instruction, pulled out a dagger and a few pieces of silver.
Liu Nanjia's eyes lit up when he saw the silver, but he asked, "How many taels is this?"
Her question stunned everyone in the room.
But there was nothing she could do. How could a modern person like her possibly know the value of ancient silver?
It's not like it's made of copper coins; you can just count them.
Moreover, the original owner of this body was such a poor thing; she had never even seen a silver ingot, let alone knew anything about them.
Liu Yanxi and Liu Sirou didn't actually know either, and they had never seen it before!
Looking at the three pairs of big eyes staring at him, the boy said helplessly, "These add up to 10 taels, which is all I have left."
When Liu Nanjia heard "10 taels," his eyes lit up, but when he heard the words "his entire fortune," the light in his eyes quickly dimmed again.
"What? I thought he was rich because his clothes were nice, but all he had was 10 taels of silver," she muttered to herself.
However, that's still better than them not being able to afford even a single tael of silver. One shouldn't be too greedy.
Quickly adjusting her mindset, Liu Nanjia continued, "As you said before, this money is ours now. Don't worry, since we've taken your money, you can stay here and focus on recovering. By the way, what's your name?"
When his name was mentioned, the boy's expression darkened, and he remained silent for a moment before speaking: "My name is... Song Chen."
