”Don't move, help your husband apply medicine.” As Sun Chun said this, he opened the box of ointment and smeared the ointment on his forefinger, lightly wiping it against the swelling on Xia Li's forehead.

The clear and cool medicinal paste made Xia Li feel a lot more comfortable. She obediently closed her eyes and enjoyed Sun Chun's care.

Sun Chun lowered his body and gently rubbed the tip of her nose, pecking her on the forehead, causing Xia Li to open her eyes.

”I don't feel any pain in my forehead anymore.” Xia Li felt like she was about to drown in this awkward atmosphere. The instant she stood up, she bumped into Sun Chun again, and was in so much pain that she couldn't help but use her hand to rub her head.

”If you know the pain, then be more honest and quiet. Today, you are unusually brainless. Is this why you are here?” Sun Chun shook the sheet out again, seeing the red blush on it, a glint flashed across his eyes, as if he had intentionally made things difficult for Xia Li, and he swayed in front of her a few more times.

Xia Li faked his death this time, and used his hand to cover his eyes. He no longer had any interactions with Sun Chun, and only allowed him to talk to himself.

When she got up to take a look, she saw that the bedsheet had already been burnt by Sun Chun in the brazier, and traces of white smoke had filled the entire room. Not long after, there was only ashes left in the brazier.

”Why burn it?” Xia Li could not help but ask.

”You have already become my woman, you don't need this common thing as evidence. Do you want to keep it as a souvenir?” The corner of Sun Chun's lips slightly raised, his eyebrows raised, and even more probing could be seen in his eyes.

”Burn it if you want to.” After Xia Li finished speaking, he slipped away like a wisp of smoke.

Seeing the little girl run away shyly and angrily, Sun Chun pursed his lips, feeling extremely happy.

Xia Li fled all the way to the room next door. Ru Shuang was already busy here, and had placed the soap, piggery, towels and other items for bathing on the bath barrel rack beside. On the clothes rack at the side of the screen, he placed the new dress that Xia Li needed to wear after taking a bath.

Xia Li was shocked by everything that happened in front of her. This place was a lot more luxurious than the place where she used to bathe in, especially the pig fungus which smelled like spice. This was a luxury that only the nobles and great officials could afford.

”Miss, I will dress you up and bathe you.” As Ru Shuang spoke, he walked to Xia Li's side and helped her take off the clothes she was wearing. Xia Li did not notice at all that Ru Shuang had already taken off the outer garment, revealing her neck.

Ru Shuang was stunned for a moment as well, as though she hadn't seen anything. She was prepared to continue helping her take off her undergarment, but Xia Li had already shyly lowered his head to help her.

”I'm used to washing myself. Ru Shuang, you go out first.”

”Yes, Madam. If you have any requests, please summon Ru Shuang at any time. This subordinate will be right outside the door.” Ru Shuang took the orders and left, carefully closing the door, and guarding outside.

Xia Li guarded his room and sat inside for a while to calm his bashful and embarrassed mood. Then, he walked behind the screen and tested the temperature of the water in the wooden barrel to see if it was suitable for the next year. Only then, did he take off his clothes, walked into the bucket to wipe his kissing wounds, and felt the warmth of the water to wash away all of her nervousness and discomfort.

After Xia Li finished bathing, he used a clean towel to dry his wet hair and changed into a red cheongsam. Walking out of the room, Ru Shuang led her to Sun Chun's room.

”Madam, the young master is waiting for you in his room. He said he has something to discuss with you.”

”Yes.” Xia Li nodded his head, he summoned up his courage and returned to Sun Chun's room. At the same time, the room was completely tidied up, with a fresh bottle of fresh flowers on the table, giving off a sweet fragrance in the air. Sun Chun was currently sitting by the side of the table drinking tea, her long hair fixed in a jade hairpin, changing into a royal blue gown.

”Come here and let your husband see.” Sun Chun called out to Xia Li.

Xia Li felt that it was awkward and stood still, ”Just walk over and take a look, I don't want to move.”

Sun Chun put down the book in his hand, stood up, walked to Xia Li's side, and looked at the lady in a red dress with disheveled hair, ”Are you not used to this kind of clothes?”

”Indeed, I'm not used to wearing a long, long dress with shoulders exposed. I'm not the empress of a palace, so it's inconvenient for me to walk, and my body isn't comfortable at all.”

Xia Li said, revealing a vexed expression.

”Then what kind of clothes do you want to wear and how do you want to live your life?” Sun Chun pulled Xia Li and sat on the chair, and poured her a cup of tea, and asked patiently.

He is free and unfettered, do not need to consider any Young Master. With his title as the lady, you do not have to worry about your daily patrols, and even more so, you do not need to get used to the way the noble young master interacts with you. If I have to bow when I see you, then do I have to bow every single time I meet you? I feel so tired of this life, not what I want. ”

Xia Li then explained everything that had been bothering her the last few days with Sun Chun, making her heart feel a lot better, but she didn't know how much trouble she would cause to Sun Chun, the young master, but he couldn't care so much.
