Chapter 22 Heartbeat
Sent Lu Hua and the others away, Jiang Nan couldn’t wait to pack her bags.
"Elder brother, where is the Guigu, let's leave quickly."
When I think of the next few days of free leisure, my steps can't help but become lighter.
Just when such a scene fell into Xuan Yu's eyes, his eyebrows slowly frowned: "Didn't you say that you can't walk anymore, and you are so anxious to leave?"
Jiang Nan choked.
The injured leg instantly dropped due to guilt, and then he beat his thigh with grievance and hatred: "I have to walk even if I can't walk. I'm afraid I won't drag this leg any longer. It’s really going to be ruined.”
One side. He said, shaking his head and sighing: "I don't know if the famous doctor you mentioned is that powerful. Can he cure my leg injury?"
"I'll know if it can be cured or not. "Yes." Xuan Yu looked helpless.
He originally had his own plans for postponing his return, but he just found an excuse to delay her return because she didn't want to go back, so he didn't say anything more and immediately packed up the few things he had. Things, take her and get ready to go.
As soon as she walked to the door in high spirits, Jiang Nan suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I haven't told Village Chief Wu yet. I have to go and say goodbye to him."
I have been living in the village these days. , the village chief treated her well and often thought of giving her delicious food.
If he hadn't helped to intercede this time, Lu Hua would not have agreed so quickly to let her continue to recover from her injuries.
So, people must know how to be grateful.
Whoever hurts her, she will pay back tenfold.
And for those who treat her well, she will repay kindness with kindness and kindness with kindness.
So the two of them went to the village to find the village chief before setting off, and said goodbye solemnly.
"Xiao Zhenren is a kind-hearted person. It would be a pity if she is left disabled due to a foot injury. She should really see a famous doctor as soon as possible to cure her. In this case, I will not force the two of them to stay."< br>
The village chief looked reluctant to leave. After speaking, he glanced aside: "By the way, Master Xuan, I have something to report to you. I have According to your method, the lonely elderly people in the village will be placed together, and people will take turns to take care of them. In addition, I plan to mobilize every household to donate some charcoal for use in the resettlement site, so that no matter how cold it is tomorrow, we will not let it go. The old people in the village are freezing to death.”
What about the lonely old people? Jiang Nan was confused.
After she asked, Xuan Yu revealed the reason.
It turns out that the elderly people who froze to death in Changle Village recently were all orphans.
A plague broke out in their village more than ten years ago. Many people died and some fled. These people fled to Changle Village at that time.
Their family members either died in the plague, or were separated from their families during the flight, leaving them alone. They could still survive on weekdays, but once the cold season of winter arrived , from time to time someone would freeze to death.
In the process of searching for the old man's body, Xuan Yu learned about these situations through the mouths of the villagers. After I came back, I made a suggestion to the village chief. Arrange the lonely elderly people together, and then take some people from the village who usually have nothing to do to take turns taking care of them, and allocate part of the village's daily expenses to subsidize those people. .
Firstly, the elderly have been taken care of, and secondly, the employment problem of some idle people has been solved.
The village chief decided to implement this method, and four or five people immediately signed up. I have to say that this is indeed a good method.
Jiang Nan had only a short time in contact with Xuan Yu, and most of her knowledge of him came from Ah Jiu's suicide note.
I didn’t expect him to be as righteous as Ah Jiu said, with a righteous heart and his own responsibilities in the world, and he would even consider such details so carefully.
That’s right, he can be so kind to strangers, but he was so ruthless and unkind to Ah Jiu in the past.
As long as he showed even a little bit of affection to Ah Jiu, she wouldn't be so hopeless.

When the villagers who had been rescued heard that Xuan Yu was leaving, they all took their things to block the road at the entrance of the village.
"My great benefactor, these are the eggs laid by my chickens. Please accept them and save them for the road."
"This is the cake I baked when I got up early in the morning. Please accept them too. Come on, save it for the road. ""And these fruits..."
A group of five or six people and their families came. They stood in the snow, their faces white and lips blue from the cold, but they held the things they were about to send out tightly in their arms.
Seeing this situation, Jiang Nan felt inexplicably complicated.
I can’t tell whether I am moved or sad.
I have to admit that no matter how big the relationship between the Crown Prince and her was before, now as a cultivator, he has done what he can to save the people of Li from suffering.
Therefore, for the sake of his kind heart and good deeds, she could consider waiting for the poison to be refined for a few days before sending him to the west.
I thought Xuan Yu would refuse the kindness of the villagers on the grounds of fasting, but in the end he accepted more than a dozen eggs from the villagers and a large bag of scones.
Jiang Nan was puzzled: "Elder brother, aren't you a bigot? Why do you still accept other people's things?"
After all, it's freezing and the villagers don't have much food at home. It's not easy to get these out and give them to him.
Xuan Yu glanced sideways and said slowly: "We have to walk for several days. If we don't leave any food, I'm afraid you will starve to death on the way."
There was disgust in his words, but Jiang Nan actually saw a look of doting on his face.
Is it an illusion? Xuan Yu actually accepted gifts from the villagers for her.
She felt a little excited for no reason: "Thank you, Senior Brother, Senior Brother is so kind to me."
For the sake of his conscience, he was suddenly willing to be nice to her, so she thought about it and waited. After the poison was refined, he was delayed for three days before sending him back to the west.
Who would have thought that before he finished speaking, Xuan Yu stuffed the bag of food over: "No need to thank me, you can just take it yourself if you want to eat."
He was very strong, and the bag of food was quite heavy. Jiang Nan was caught off guard and fell back: "Why is it so heavy?"
"Is it heavy? I saw that you didn't feel heavy when you were secretly digging for things in the back mountain with a big basket on your back." Xuan Yu teased.
Jiang Nan choked.
Where is she sneaking around? She is digging openly, okay?
No, digging for medicinal materials is difficult, right?
"Elder brother, why are you so embarrassed to talk about me? You saw me digging for medicine and didn't even say hello. I thought you were just sneaking around, right?"
After Jiang Nan said something, he thought of something, "And you obviously It doesn't look like anything, why is he so old? Go to the back mountain to soak in the hot springs all day long? Senior brother, why don't you admit it, are you doing something shameful in the back mountain without telling everyone?"
"You are quite good at complaining first. "Xuan Yu slightly curved the corners of his mouth.
Why didn't he realize that she was so articulate before?
Jiang Nan rarely saw him smile. Although he was laughing at himself, he couldn't help being charmed by his instant smile: "Wow, senior brother looks so good when he smiles."
< br>
"Did I laugh?"
Xuan Yu returned to seriousness in the next second, and walked straight forward without saying anything else.
Seeing his relaxed stride, cool and comfortable back, and looking at the heavy package in his arms, Jiang Nan regretted it on the spot.
This guy who is ruthless and unreasonable and doesn’t know how to show mercy to others, she had to be blind to have feelings for him just now.
No, on the day the poison is refined, she will send him back to the west immediately, and she will show no mercy!
