Xu Zhengyong changed his clothes, then emerged cleanly and refreshed.
“Miss… Miss Wei!” Xu Zhengyong, who was about to call out “Ruoruo”, caught sight of Wei Jinyi also in the court and quickly corrected himself.
With a smile tugging at the corner of Xu Zhengyong’s mouth, he looked energetic and spirited, showing no signs of being recently rescued after being buried for several hours.
“Deputy General Xu, don’t move around. You have just been exposed to the cold wind all night,” Wei Ruo cast him a side glance, warning him not to be too cocky.
Xu Zhengyong shrank his neck a little and took a seat opposite Wei Ruo, laughing and not daring to move again.
“Miss Wei, don’t worry too much, I am strong and healthy, a little wind chill won’t bring me down!” Xu Zhengyong said with a pleased expression.
Although he couldn’t move arbitrarily, he could still joke around a bit.
“Deputy General Xu, you only get one body. If you ruin it, you can’t replace it. It’s better to be more careful. Like the old saying goes, caution is the parent of safety.” Wei Ruo said with a “smile”.
“Miss Wei, you might not know, I have a nagging sister at home. Since childhood, she enjoys feeding me various tonic foods. Whenever she acquires anything good, she gives it to me. I eat so well that I am strong as an ox, it is hard for me to get sick!” Said Xu Zhengyong, proudly.
“Deputy General Xu, speak less and finish your medicine, then go back to sleep.” Wei Ruo put a bottle of medicine in front of Xu Zhengyong, letting him take it himself.
Without protest, Xu Zhengyong picked up the medicine bottle, skillfully poured two pills into his hand and washed them down with a bowl of water.
At the side, all of Wei Jinyi’s attention was absorbed by these seemingly unfamiliar but actually intimate interactions between the two.
Soon after, Wei Mingting also came out.
Xu Zhengyong immediately stood up and walked over to play with the chickens kept in the yard by the farmers.
Wei Mingting was also in good condition, after all, with years of martial arts training and combat experience, his physical condition was much better than that of ordinary people.
Wei Mingting sat down opposite Wei Ruo and sincerely expressed his gratitude: “Ruoruo, although to say thank you seems to add a distance between us, I still want to express my gratitude. If it were not for you today, Deputy General Xu and I might not be alive. The lives of all of us were saved by you.” “Father, there’s no need to be overly polite with me. It’s something I should do.” Even if Wei Mingting was not her biological father, and she was only a commoner from Xingshan County, at such a time there was no reason not to help them.
Wei Mingting gently shook his head: “There is nothing that you should do. On such a cold day, it is very dangerous. It is truly commendable that you and Jinyi disregarded your own safety to come and search for us.”
Wei Ruo just smiled and didn’t say anything.
Wei Mingting’s gaze softened as he watched Wei Ruo tinker with something, and asked, “Ruoruo, what are you working on?”
“These are some medicines I brought along, thinking they might be of use. However, to maintain their efficacy some medicines were separated when made. They need to be mixed together before usage.” Wei Ruo explained.
“Ruoruo, you really are meticulous.” Wei Mingting praised.
“Father, you should have caught a cold yesterday. Wait for me to mix the medicine, then take a bowl of it.” Wei Ruo suggested.
“Alright.” Wei Mingting replied with a smile.
Watching his daughter prepare medicine for his cold, Wei Mingting felt a warmth in his heart.
After preparing the medicine, Wei Ruo mixed it with boiling water.
Although this method was not as effective as boiling the medicine in water, it was simple and practical.
After adjusting the medicine, Wei Ruo divided it into five portions. Each person who was trapped yesterday gets a share, and Xu Zhengyong couldn’t escape from taking it.
Xu Zhengyong tried to pretend that he was feeding chickens and didn’t hear Wei Ruo’s voice in order to avoid taking the medicine, but Wei Ruo called him once again:
