Biting cold water, suffocating despair, she floated up and down in the rushing river, her body was cut by the gravel in the river, she was like a rag, caught in the torrent, the water poured into her nose and mouth She kept choking and coughing, but she only drank the terrifying river water when she wanted to breathe.
Su Mo... Su Mo...
Su Mo, who relies on her like air, deprives her of the right to breathe...
Choking, like dying.
"Snow grass?"
Su Mo's voice rang in her ears, and Xuecao opened her eyes in panic, only to see Su Mo sitting beside her bed with an oil lamp lit, her brows slightly wrinkled, and her eyes hidden worry: "Have a nightmare?" He said lightly, As if afraid to scare her.
Dreams and reality overlapped in Yukusa's mind. She sat up in panic and pushed Su Mo away with such force that Su Mo almost fell. Snow Grass covered her eyes and curled up in the corner: "Don't come near me!" Her voice trembled, unable to hide her fear.
A sentence made Su Mo stand frozen beside the bed. The light of the oil lamp he lit was weak, but it was enough for him to see the scars extending to the calf on the bare instep of the snow grass. Su Mo felt a dull pain in his heart, as if a piece of flesh had been cut by a dull knife. He knew how such a wound was formed. It was a scar left after the body rubbed against a blunt object and scraped off the flesh. He probably also knew when the scar on Yukinoka was formed.
Su Mo lowered his head, clenched his palms tightly, and remained silent.
In the middle of the night, the house was so quiet that only the chirping of insects could be heard. After an unknown amount of time, Snow Grass finally muttered, "Go out."
Su Mo had no choice but to turn around and leave, taking two steps, his voice was hoarse: "Xuecao... I'm sorry."
"Don't you think it's disgusting to say this now?"
The next morning, Snow Grass got up early as usual, prepared breakfast and put it on the table. She had dried herbs on her back, and was about to go out, but she saw Su Mo standing beside her without a word, whispering softly. Ask: "Where are you going?"
"Going to town, you help me go up the mountain to collect medicine, don't be lazy, come back and chop the firewood, wash and dry the clothes, prepare dinner for me if you can prepare it for me, I won't come back at noon." She said calmly, just Like nothing happened last night.
"I'll go with you."
"No." Yukino immediately refused, "I don't want to see you today."
Su Mo lowered his head and fell silent. It wasn't until Xuecao left the yard that Su Mo curled his lips and smiled: "Suddenly I feel that I'm actually your little daughter-in-law... That's fine too."
Xuecao glanced at him: "It's a pity that I can't afford to be happy here."
Centella will go down the mountain once a month. She will first go to the ruined temple in the south of the city. Most of the poor people live there. They can’t afford medicine if they look down on doctors. Going to the pharmacy to sell the precious medicinal materials that can only be found on the mountain, in exchange for some silver money and ordinary medicines, after bringing the medicines to the people in the south of the city, she will buy some daily necessities in the town and then go home.
This time, it was only ten days before she went down the mountain last time. People in the ruined temple were very pleasantly surprised when they saw the snow grass. Because the weather was hot and cold during this time, many people were sick, and the snow grass was for them. It took a lot of time to diagnose the disease, and it took a lot of effort to exchange for the medicinal materials. After the patient was finished, it was already dark, and the city gate was locked, and the snow grass had to live in the city. rushed home.
