Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 372 Tall and Capable Hunter vs. Lucky Beauty (7)

Before going to sleep at night, Shen Shuyi opened the system shop and used her points to redeem a bottle of spiritual spring water. She planned to add a little to her cooking to improve her family's health.

Seeing my parents and younger siblings looking thin and malnourished, I felt heartbroken.

[Host, you're quite generous.]
Shen Shuyi only said, "This is my mission. I said I would help the original owner take care of her family."

She didn't say it, but the feeling of being loved by her family was actually quite nice. In her original world, she was just an orphan, and this kind of family affection was rare and she was somewhat moved by it.

"66, how are things going with the Chen family?"

[Host, Fan Xiurong is asking Chen Mengzheng to take charge. Let's take a look together. There's a high-definition 2080P replay on a screen.]
Wow, 66, you leveled up again! That's awesome!

Through the light screen provided by 66, Shen Shuyi watched as if she were watching a movie, seeing Fan Xiurong and Chen Mengzheng struggling.

Fan Xiurong, completely disoriented, clung to Chen Mengzheng's arm. "Cousin, what should I do? Everyone saw it."

"Waaah, I don't want to live anymore! I'd rather kill myself than let my cousin suffer!"

Two days have passed, and Shen Shuyi has left without a trace, never to return. Chen Mengzheng is still in a daze.

His expression changed when Fan Xiurong grabbed his arm. He pulled Fan Xiurong back, saying, "Don't do anything foolish."

"Come back first, we can talk about this later."

Chen Mengzheng's words made Fan Xiurong stiffen. She sobbed, "Cousin, I... I've actually loved you for a long time. I'm already yours. If I go back, my parents will definitely beat me to death. I'd rather die in front of you, so you'll know how I feel."

"Xiurong will never leave your side in this lifetime."

As she spoke, Fan Xiurong was about to bang her head against the pillar.

Chen Mengzheng hugged her tightly, "Xiurong, don't do anything foolish, I'll marry you!"

"But we should keep our marriage low-key. After we get married, I will be going to the provincial capital to take the provincial examination. We can't afford any trouble at this time."

Fan Xiurong gritted her teeth inwardly. What kind of situation was this? Was she really going to move into the Chen family's house quietly like this?
Not even a banquet?
The most important thing right now is for her to marry into the family first. We can always arrange the wedding in the city after my cousin finishes high school.
"Cousin, even without a formal relationship, I'm willing to be with you."

As Chen Meng was being held by Fan Xiurong, a phrase popped into his mind: "Unofficial marriage without a matchmaker, becoming a concubine."
Shen Shuyi was looking forward to Fan Xiurong's life after joining the Chen family. She wanted to see how the good girl that the two ingrates and the old poisonous woman always praised would take care of the whole family.

For a while after that, she stopped paying attention to the Chen family.

She planned to make some pear syrup and mushroom sauce, and see if she could sell them when she went to town to buy things. She also planned to sell the century-old ginseng. If she could sell it, she would have money to send the two little ones to a private school.

Once on the street, she could also see what small businesses were suitable for the town.

Without further ado, Shen Shuyi and Shulan, who was at home, processed pears to make pear syrup. In a while, autumn would be dry and prone to causing internal heat, so drinking pear syrup soaked in water would be the best option.

While simmering pear syrup, Shulan tended the fire, while Shen Shuyi went to the well in the yard to process fresh mushrooms.

In addition, Chu Yi gave us a really big bamboo basket, some of which we dried in the sun, and the rest we used to make mushroom sauce.

Shen Shuyi had just finished washing the mushrooms when she heard a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

She got up in confusion to open the door and saw a tall man in a coarse brown robe standing outside the gate. His sleeves were rolled up, revealing his strong, muscular, bronze arms that gleamed in the sunlight.

The Chu Yi before me was as tall as a mountain.

However, blood was still seeping from the arm that was wrapped in bandages.

"Miss Shen, I caught a few fish and brought them to you as a token of my gratitude." Chu Yi spoke in a formal and measured manner, his gaze not lingering on the young girl.

Shen Shuyi took the three large, fat fish he handed her and spoke with a smile.

"Chu Yi, you're too kind."

"Come in and sit down?"

"No, thank you." Chu Yi turned to leave. Shen Shuyi stepped forward and stopped him. She pointed to the man's arm and said, "Let me re-bandage your wound, otherwise it will bleed again when you do any work."

Chu Yi's arm was injured by a wild boar, and the wound was quite deep. It would be best to stitch it up, but that's not an option right now.

However, she has healing elixirs produced by the system, so this is not a problem.

Seeing that he still seemed eager to leave, Shen Shu added, "Stop refusing. If the neighbors see us, they'll think we have something going on. Come in quickly."

Chu Yi nodded silently.

He followed the little girl into the courtyard, and once the gate was closed, he obediently sat down at the stone table next to the well.

Shen Shuyi entered the house and brought out a small wooden box containing bandages and some hemostatic and wound-healing medicine that she had redeemed from the system.

She sat down beside Chu Yi and carefully helped him untie the bandages. His wound was red and swollen and oozing pus. If he weren't so strong, an ordinary person would probably be bedridden and unable to move. How could he have gone to the river to catch fish again?

Shen Shuyi carefully cleaned his wound with medicine, then applied hemostatic medicine and gently bandaged it.

During the bandaging process, it was inevitable that the man's strong and powerful arm would be touched, and the more it was touched, the more tense the man's arm became.

Chu Yi sat motionless, his gaze unfocused, not daring to even glance at the kind and warm-hearted young girl.

After his father passed away, he would usually bandage himself if he got injured while climbing the mountain. Only if the injury was too serious would he go to town to see a doctor.

The slight stinging pain in his arm brought him back to his senses, and Chu Yi subconsciously glanced at her.

What came into view was the little girl's rough, calloused hands, as she skillfully bandaged his wound.

Those little hands must have suffered a lot; a subtle thought suddenly came to his mind.

A kind-hearted girl like her deserves a good life.
"Okay." Shen Shuyi finished wrapping the bandage.

"Try not to exert any force on this arm during this period, and also don't let it get wet."

"Thank you, here's the money." Chu Yi stood up and reached for his money.

Shen Shuyi chuckled, "The fish you sent over is more than enough to cover the cost."

"That doesn't count." Chu Yi's voice was stiff and somewhat stubborn.

Shen Shuyi sighed helplessly, "Ten copper coins."

"I prepared the medicine."

The original owner of this body was barely literate, but in order to make a good impression on Chen Mengzheng, she would ask him to teach her a few words whenever he was in a good mood.

Saying that he can prepare medicine is indeed a bit of a stretch.

Chu Yi's eyes indeed showed doubt.

Shen Shuyi added with a smile, "During my time living in Qingcheng Village, I happened to be indebted to an old doctor. That doctor taught me to recognize many medicinal herbs, so I prepared some medicine for my injuries myself. Don't worry, I've tried it myself, and it's somewhat effective."

Chu Yi felt that the pain in his wound had indeed lessened, and the bleeding had miraculously stopped quickly.

He didn't doubt Shen Shuyi's words; it was normal for such a kind girl to help an old doctor.

What does it mean that she lived in Qingcheng Village?
Chu Yi took out the money, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

Shen Shuyi seemed to remember something and called out to him.

"Chu Yi."

"Wait."
