A bright moon hung high in the sky, and the silver-white moonlight enveloped the quiet Taoyuan Village.

Xu Wenhe’s small courtyard has only two rooms that can live in. On weekdays, he and Brother Hao have one room for each person, and one bed for each person. Now that there are more Tao Ti and Pei Yan, Brother Hao goes to sleep in Xu Wenhe's house, and Pei Yan and Tao Ti live in Brother Hao's house together.

In the countryside, there are no wide-bed quilts. Tao Ti originally thought that the bed he had previously lived in at the station was narrow enough, but Brother Hao's single bed was narrower than the bed at the station.

Due to the injury, Pei Yan was lying flat. He was tall, with wide shoulders and narrow waist. He occupied most of the bed by himself.

Seeing Tao Ti standing still beside the bed, Pei Yan tried his best to be next to the bed to make room for her, and whispered, "Ati, I've been tired all day and night, go to bed and rest."

Tao Ti saw how he could fall out of the bed even when he turned over, and quickly said, "His Royal Highness, you can sleep a little bit in it. You don't need to make room for me. I can just sleep on the ground tonight."

Pei Yan frowned, "No way."

"It's okay, it's almost May now, and another layer of quilt on the ground will not be cold." Tao Ti said with a relaxed tone, "You have a wound on your body, I'm afraid I will not sleep well and will hurt you. If the wound is open, it is better to sleep separately."

Seeing that she was really going to sleep on the ground with the bedding, Pei Yan struggled to sit up, but she moved too fast and accidentally affected the wound. The pain made him groan.

Tao Ti turned his head and saw him in pain, hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and said anxiously, "Your Highness, you lie down."

"Ati, don't sleep on the ground." Pei Yan squeezed her wrist and raised her head. Those beautiful peach eyes seemed to be full of stars, glowing with a heart-wrenching brilliance under the faint candlelight.

Tao Ti shook his mind, Shui Lingling's black eyes blinked, "...good, good."

After she finished speaking, she realized that she said "OK"? ? ?

What a ghost, with such a small bed, is it possible for her to sleep on top of him?

Alas, it's all to blame for the sultry appearance of the man, and for a while, she was fascinated by her mind.

Seeing her promise, Pei Yan's eyebrows opened slowly, with a gentle smile, "Then blow the candle and rest."

Tao Ti glanced at the embarrassing little bed and sighed softly, "Yeah."

Unlike in the palace, after going to bed, the beautiful curtain can still show a faint light. In this small village, there is no curtain, only a thin green gauze curtain. The candlelight is out, and only those who can't see the five fingers are left. dark.

Tao Ti climbed onto the bed from the foot of the bed cautiously, for fear of accidentally touching his wound.

When she lay down, curled up...

It's hard to lie down, and I can only sleep on my side.

She gently adjusted her sleeping position, first toward the wall, but soon, she smelled the musty smell from the dark yellow and blue wall.

Although she tried to ignore the damp and musty smell, her face was too close to the wall, but the smell went straight into her nose, giving her the feeling of being in a dungeon.

Just when she was about to be unable to hold it back, a hand suddenly took her shoulder and directly adjusted her direction.

"Holding your breath, don't worry about suffocating yourself." The man's pleasant low voice came.

In the darkness, Tao Ti could not see, but based on the warm breath that brushed her cheeks, she judged that Pei Yan was very close to him at the moment, and she replied indiscriminately, "No, no breath..."

She pressed her back against the cold wall, trying to draw some distance between the two, at least not against it. It's just that the bed is too small, it is really difficult for her to squeeze out more space, and her body still inevitably touches some.

Fortunately, it was dark all around, and there was nothing to see, which slightly reduced the sense of embarrassment.

After being quiet for a while, Pei Yan said softly, "Ati, it was so dangerous last night, why did you rush up? If you were not lucky enough to fall into the water, your life might not be guaranteed."

Listening to this question, Tao Ti was silent for a moment before saying, "Seeing that you are in danger, I subconsciously want to save it. Is there a reason to save people?"

Pei Yan, "..."

"If there must be a reason, it is probably that human life is very precious. Human life has only one life, if it is gone, it is gone..." Tao Ti added.

Pei Yan pursed his lips, and the feeling of expectation became a little depressed at this moment. He pondered for a moment, and then asked, "So, if the person who was assassinated was not a lone, but someone else, would you rush forward desperately?"

Tao Ti choked.

But the bottom of my heart gave the answer for the first time: Of course not.

She lowered her eyes, her voice softly and softly, "Your Highness, you are different from others."

Pei Yan's heart beat violently, but his tone remained calm, "What is different."

Tao Ti's body tightened a little bit, and her voice became smaller, as the mosquito groaned, "Just... Your Royal Highness has always taken care of me like this, and we are friends again..."

friend? Pei Yan laughed dumbly.

He could feel that the little girl next to him had shrunk into a ball, and if he kept asking, she was afraid that she would not be able to rest well tonight. Thinking of her tired look in the daytime, Pei Yan didn't break the casserole to ask the end.

Unexpectedly, after a while, I heard the little girl shrieking timidly, "His Royal Highness, you said... Will the Orion's body today be discovered?"

Pei Yan was slightly stunned, if she didn't mention it, he almost forgot about it.

He said, "It shouldn't be discovered so quickly, even if it is discovered, others can't help us."

Compared to killing Orion, Pei Yan is more concerned about Tao Ti's impression of him.

Thinking of her frightened and stupid look, he said solemnly, "Ati, you killed that Orion alone today, do you feel lonely... cruel?"

Thinking of the ugly face of the Orion, Tao Ti was so angry that he became a puffer fish, and said dullly, "No! That person deserves it! If you didn't make your move in time for your Highness, I would definitely kill him!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she shut up annoyed.

Why did I shout and scream in front of Pei Yan? This is not gentle and elegant at all!

Pei Yan seemed to guess her thoughts and chuckled twice.

After a while, he said warmly, "You won't alienate the lonely because of this, so don't worry about that lonely."

"No, that's how you should deal with bad guys. I appreciate you not having time."

"Don't be grateful. To speak of kindness, you saved a lonely life on the painting boat, it should be lonely and grateful to you."

"Hey, don't worry, I actually didn't help... Speaking of it, I even made you fall into the water. What happened is like a drifting bottle, drifting for more than forty miles..." Later, her voice gradually became quieter and became a vague mutter.

Pei Yan could only hear the first half of her sentence, and said in a serious tone, "The grace of life-saving is to be taken to heart... How can I want to repay you?"

Tao Ti, "Don't use it."

Pei Yan, "Why don't you agree with your body?"

Tao Ti, "???"

Did she hear the hallucinations, or did Pei Yan's brain burn out?

Tao Ti was surprised, thought for a while, reached out and touched Pei Yan's forehead, muttering softly, "It's not hot, why are you still talking nonsense."

Pei Yan couldn't laugh or cry, "Atimo doesn't hate loneliness?"

Tao Ti said in his heart, how can it be? Your condition is to have a figure, a face and a face, a family and a family, a talent and a gentle personality, and have never had a temper with her. In other words, her parents didn't have such a good patience... It would be totally unreasonable to be rejected.

It's just that it sounds beautiful to agree with your body, but in fact... it's impossible between the two of them.

He is a human, with a short life span of only two years.

And she is a Protoss, if she didn't take the initiative to choose to sleep, she would be immortal.

Isn't there a classic line in the script, called "human demon"? The two of them are not in the same way.

Even if she likes him, what can she do.

Tao Ti's long eyelashes drooped, and he chuckled, "His Royal Highness, don't be kidding, it's getting late, go to bed earlier?"

Pei Yan was silent for a moment, and said quietly, "...Okay."

Both of them fell silent, only to hear a few bugs from outside the window.

Tao Ti was confused about what Pei Yan said, but she was so tired that she fell asleep soon after.

Pei Yan felt the body next to him relax, and took her into his arms, and tucked the quilt.

His chin pressed against her hair, and he sighed lightly, "Little fool, where is the lone joking with you."

The person in his arms did not respond, only breathing evenly.

………

Tao Ti was awakened by a loud rooster. The big **** in the countryside wakes up early and has a bright voice. The arousal effect is amazing.

She looked up with sleepy eyes, and a dim light came through the window, obviously it was still early.

She was about to lie down and sleep again, when she suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with the person next to her?

With the faint light, Pei Yan's cold and white skin glowed with an unnatural red, his thick eyebrows were frowned, and there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Tao Ti raised his hand to his forehead, and his sleepiness disappeared without a trace.

Oops, how could it burn again!

She hurriedly sat up and called out softly, "Your Highness, Your Highness..."

Under her call, Pei Yan opened his eyes weakly, his eyes were still a little watery, and his voice was dumb "um".

Tao Ti worried, "You have a fever again... I'll go to Old Man Xu!"

She quickly got up and put on a quick dress, but with a blue silk hanging down, she didn't know how to wear a bun, so she pulled a rope and tied it at will.

When he walked out, the door opposite was still closed. Tao Ti raised his eyes and glanced, the sky was dark and bright, and it was estimated that it was just after four o'clock in the morning, and the moon in the sky was still there.

She walked to the opposite door, and just about to knock on the door, her hand was in the air——

She and Pei Yan have already troubled Old Uncle Xu's grandchildren enough. If it was early in the morning, it would not seem good to disturb them.

After hesitating for a moment, she decided to help Pei Yan cool down first. Old people always get up early, and it is estimated that Old Man Xu should get up in half an hour at most.

After making up his mind, Tao Ti hurried to the kitchen, boiled a pot of hot water, poured a bowl of light salt water, poured the rest into the basin, mixed with the shochu, and put it aside to let it cool.

"His Royal Highness, drink some light salt water first." Tao Ti bent over, passing his arm through the back of his neck, lifted him slightly, and hurriedly tucked a pillow down.

Two nights passed, and Pei Yan's lips had fresh green stubble, and he looked a lot haggard. Although a person is still having a fever, he has a much firmer mind than ordinary people, and he still has consciousness at the moment.

Tao Ti fed him spoon by spoon, and he also cooperated to drink it.

After feeding a bowl of light salt water, Tao Ti got up and tried the water temperature in the tub. It was not hot or cold, just right.

She brought the basin to the bed, looked at Pei Yan who was lying half-leaning, pursed her lips, and whispered, "Your Majesty, I will wipe your body and cool down. You need to take off your clothes... I'm not taking advantage of you. ..."

Pei Yan half-closed his eyes, did not speak, and let her mercy.

Tao Ti held a sigh of relief, untied his bedding, and gently lifted it up, the mermaid line of chest muscles and abdominal muscles appeared in front of his eyes again...

What a pleasing scene.

She thought about it ill-timed, and quickly remembered what was going on, twisted the towel and wiped him.

She stared at him, avoiding the bandage, and really wiped his arms, neck, chest and abdomen, thighs, calves... His body was very hot, and she could feel him hot through the thin towel. The heat.

Wiping it, there was a doubt in her heart. Hasn't Pei Yan been weak and sick since he was a child, then why is his figure so good?

This pectoral and abdominal muscles are not something you can have by just practicing...

She was thinking, her wrist was suddenly clasped.

Tao Ti was startled, her black eyes looked at Pei Yan, innocent and confused, "...?"

Pei Yan's eyes narrowed slightly and said dumbly, "When you wipe, don't be distracted."

After speaking, he let go of her hand.

Tao Ti was still a little dumbfounded, until she saw Pei Yan's bedding pants that she was about to push to a key part, and the hand she placed on his flat lower abdomen——

Ah ah ah ah, dying to death!

With a bang, her little white face was completely red.

"Yes, yes... I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..." She stammered with her head buried low.

"It's okay." Pei Yan said dumbly.

Next, Tao Ti wiped him as quickly as possible, and quickly escaped with the tub.

Outside.

Xu Wenhe also got up, and was a little surprised to see Tao Ti hurriedly coming out of the room.

Tao Ti was very surprised when he saw Xu Wenhe got up, and quickly told about Pei Yan's fever.

After listening to Tao Ti's words, Xu Wenhe walked into the left wing.

Seeing that Pei Yan's clothes were messy, his chest was slightly open, and there were still some water marks on the ground, he also guessed what was going on, and laughed and joked, "No wonder that Lady Tao's face is so red, she used to wipe your body. "

Pei Yan didn't answer this, but only asked him politely.

Xu Wenhe showed it to him and knew in his heart. After he came out of the house, he was equipped with a new prescription and took it to Tao Tibo.

Tao Ti hurriedly lit the stove, boiled the medicine, wiped his hands on his apron, and asked Xu Wenhe anxiously, "Old man Xu, didn’t my husband have a fever yesterday? Why did he get a fever again today? Is it related to his physique? He accidentally fell into the water when he was a child, and he has been in poor health ever since..."

Xu Wenhe glanced at the faint black green in her eyes, sighing in his heart, and stopped talking. In the end, he chose to lie, "Yes, it has something to do with his weak physique. Of course, the main cause is wound infection and high fever... But don’t worry, as long as you have taken the old man’s medicine, you can take a good rest. of."

Tao Ti was a little relieved, thanked Xu Wenhe, and smiled again, "Then I will cook breakfast first, and I can eat when Brother Hao wakes up."

Speaking of food, Xu Wenhe stroked his white beard and smiled a lot, "Okay, okay, do more."

Tao Ti responded and turned back into the kitchen.

After the medicine was cooked, Xu Wenhe took the initiative to send medicine to Pei Yan in order not to disturb Tao Ti's cooking.

………

Brother Hao was awakened by the smell of breakfast. He put on his clothes numbly and ran out, looking at the rich breakfast on the table, with a happy "Wow".

On the square table, there is a large pot of golden-colored millet pumpkin porridge in the center, surrounded by fried tofu balls, pan-fried leek boxes, fried sauerkraut with diced radish, and two large dishes full of soup dumplings. In the bright morning The steaming dishes are fragrant and mouth-watering.

Xu Wenhe hurried brother Hao to wash, and first put a soup bag into the bowl, "Tao Lady, this is also a bun? How can you make this skin so thin, looking exquisitely cut, the pleats are pinched into flowers It's like it's so good-looking."

"This is a soup dumpling, which is characterized by its thin skin and thick filling." Tao Ti pushed a plate of balsamic vinegar in front of him and said with a smile. taste."

"Okay, I'll try them all." Xu Wenhe listened to her and took one to his mouth.

The skin of the soup bun was very tender and slippery, and it broke after a slight bite. The delicious and rich soup inside all of a sudden flowed out, rushing to fill the entire mouth, it was so fresh that the eyebrows were about to fall off! In particular, the meat filling is fragrant and not loose, and the mouth is oily but not greasy. If it is dipped in some vinegar, the sour vinegar will neutralize the oil in the meat filling, and the taste will be refreshing.

"Okay, okay, really good!" Xu Wenhe was full of praise, and took another one, eating with relish.

Taking into account Pei Yan's condition, Tao Ti divided a breakfast separately, planning to send him into the house.

There was no tray in Xu Wenhe's house, so Tao Ti had to carry it in the same way. Brother Hao got up immediately and helped her deliver it.

Inside the house, Pei Yan leaned quietly on the bed, and the soft morning sunlight spilled on her obliquely through the wooden windows in the house, setting off his already handsome side face with clear lines and becoming more gentle.

"Are you hungry?" Tao Ti walked over, placing breakfast, and said, "I made something light and easy to digest. The leek box is relatively greasy, so I didn't get it for you. These fried tofu **** and glutinous rice You can eat more soup dumplings, and this pumpkin porridge, which I boiled for half an hour, is thick and thick, very healthy."

Pei Yan said, "Ati, I have some pain in my chest, and I am still a little weak. I'm afraid I can't move the chopsticks..."

Tao Ti was stunned, and looked at him in surprise and worry, "Is it so serious?"

"Um."

Pei Yan's voice was gentle and dumb, with a sultry little laziness, "So, can I trouble you to feed me?"

He raised his head, and from the perspective of Tao Ti's standing, his peachy eyes looked rounder, the corners of his eyes were a little drooping, the pupils were dark, and the eyes were bright, with a pitiful smell of dog eyes. Coupled with his pale complexion, and his thin, pale lips, it's really...I feel sorry for it!

Tao Ti swallowed unconsciously, she couldn't stand it at all!

"Okay, okay, I'll feed you." She nodded, turned her face to Brother Hao and said, "Brother Hao, you go out to eat with your grandpa first."

Brother Hao looked at Pei Yan, with small eyes, big doubts, "...?"

Yesterday, his condition was a little worse. He gave him the medicine himself. He took it with one hand and drank very well. Why did you need someone to feed you after a day of recuperation? I really don't understand.
