    “Sister you say this, those who don’t know think that your brother and I spend all day thinking about the Wei family sister’s things.” Jue Xie said helplessly.

    “No? You’ve taken a lot of wakame from me, that mosquito repellent balm, and that shiitake mushroom sauce, and ……”

    Jue Xie busily interrupted, “Sister, a while back grandpa gave me a sword, I’ll give it to you later.”

    “Really?” Xie Ying’s eyes lit up.

    “You girl, when has brother ever lied to you?”

    “Good brother, you are the bravest in my heart!” Xie Ying immediately changed her words.

    At the moment, Wei Ruo and Wei Jin were also helping to repair the roof. This was because most of the strong men in the village had gone to dig up the houses that had been buried by the mud from the landslide.

    Previously, only one road was dug out for easy access in and out of the village, and many other areas remain buried.

    The officials also continued to send people over to help in the past few days, but in order to recover as quickly as possible, the men in the village, whether they had houses buried in their homes or not, went ahead and helped dig.

    So some of the dilapidated houses have been put on hold, and the elderly women and children in the family have to make do with what they have.

    Wei Ruo stood underneath the house and helped pass things to Wei Jin Yi who was on the roof.

    Wei Ruo tilted her head to look at Wei Jin Yi, who was busy at the top, and couldn’t help but praise, “Second brother is so good with his hands, walking so steadily on the roof.”

    Wei Jin also didn’t respond to Wei Ruo’s praise, but instead instructed Wei Ruo, “Be careful down there, some broken tiles could fall down at any time.”

    Seeing Wei Ruo standing below, Wei Jin Yi always had a somewhat uneasy feeling.

    “Well, I’ll pay attention, don’t worry second brother, I pity life.” Wei Ruo replied.

    “Uh-huh.”

    She always had this smile when she looked at him, so sweet and genuine.

    “Second brother, how long will you stay in Xing Shan County this time?” It just so happened that there was nothing else going on at the moment, so Wei Ruo inquired.

    “Depends on the situation, there’s no rush.” Wei Jin also replied.

    “Old …… that Tibetan forest dweller has no opinion?”

    “He means it.”

    “Well, that’s good.” The old man was good enough!

    When Wei Jin Yi finished getting the roof down, the old farmer brought water to the two of them, “Young Master Wei, Miss Wei, I don’t have any good tea or wine here, so I can only commission the two of you to have a drink.”

    “The old man will be fine, a bowl of water will be enough.”

    Wei Ruo took the bowl and handed it to Wei Jin Yi first before going to get her own one.

    Seeing that a strand of Wei Ruo’s hair had fallen into the bowl when she drank the water, Wei Jin Yi reached out and helped her pull her hair behind her ear.

    Slender fingers traced over her ears, Wei Ruo was stunned and raised her head to meet the eyes of Wei Jin also looking at herself.

    At this moment, Wei Jin Yi’s hand had not yet retracted from behind Wei Ruo’s ear.

    His look was focused and his eyes were gentle.

    This kind of gentleness made Wei Ruo a bit dazed, perhaps because no one had ever treated her like this before, or perhaps it was because his eyes were as deep as a whirlpool.

    The two just stared at each other, when Wei Ying suddenly came over and tapped Wei Ruo’s shoulder.

    Wei Ruo was startled, and then quickly turned around.

    Wei Jin also withdrew his hand and looked at his palm thoughtfully.

    In fact, in that instant just now, he wasn’t sure what was wrong with him, just subconsciously helping her lift a strand of her hair, why would he suddenly look at her near cheek out of his mind.

    “Ruoruo what happened to you?” Seeing that Wei Ruo was startled, Xie Ying hurriedly inquired with concern.

    “It’s fine, a little out of focus.” Wei Ruo replied busily, and immediately asked Xie Ying, “Did you come over to find me for something?”

    “It’s not a big deal, just a question I wanted to ask you.”

    “What’s the problem?”

    Xie Ying came to Wei Ruo’s ear, “Ruoruo, what have you been feeding your family, your second brother and Meimei are in good health.”

    “This ah …… second brother’s and I have nothing to do with it, his own hard work and hard practice results, Mei Mei words, or to exercise the body is the main focus, the medicinal bath is also there to soak, the daily tonic and conditioning the body also have.” Wei Ruo replied.

    “Ruo Ruo, look at my brother, my grandfather wanted him to be a talent in both literature and martial arts, but look at him, he said he has been learning martial arts for a long time, but so far he’s a half-assed person, if possible, if you can, if you can’t do him a favor?”

    Although it was a bit embarrassing to take the initiative to pipe in and ask for something, but for the sake of her own brother, Xie Ying also went out on a limb.

    “No problem.” Wei Ruo agreed very painfully.

    “Really?” Xie Ying looked at Wei Ruo in surprise.

    “How can this be fake, aren’t we good friends? Such a small thing is naturally out of the question. In a moment I’ll write down the prescription for the medicinal bath for you, as for the tonic prescription it has to vary from person to person, in a moment I’ll give Mr. Wei a look and then see what to tonic.” Wei Ruo replied.

    “Ruoruo you are too kind!” Xie Ying’s face was joyful and touched, “Ruo Ruo my brother got a sword from my grandfather, when he brings it I’ll give it to you!”

    “No, I don’t know martial arts, so there’s no use in giving it to me. Don’t you like precious swords and knives and such? Keep it for yourself.” Wei Ruo said.

    “That won’t do, if you give me something good, I’ll naturally return something to you, or else I’ll feel bad, I, Xie Ying, never take advantage of others.”

    “Then you can give me a pair of your drawings of war horses next time.” Wei Ruo said.

    “My drawing of that war horse isn’t even 10% as good as Mr. Wang’s, what do you want it for?”

    “Using what you drew with your own pen for what I wrote with my own pen, it is also considered to be an equivalent exchange, the important thing is not the value, it is the intention, what you drew with a single stroke is bound to be very precious.” Wei Ruo said.

    “Good, just follow you!” Xie Ying said happily.

    And then Wei Ruo found a room and wrote Xie Jue a prescription for a medicinal bath.

    Xie Ying took Wei Ruo’s written prescription and happily called out to Xie Jue, who was working as a porter outside the door, “Brother, come quickly, Ruo Ruo has written you a prescription for a medicinal bath for strengthening your body!”

    Xie Jue came sniffing, due to the fact that the last time Wei Ruo gave their mother that prescription to regulate her body was very effective, Xie Jue did not doubt for a second the validity of writing Wei Ruo’s newly written prescription.

    Jue Xie didn’t say anything polite either, and very sincerely thanked Wei Ruo, “Thank you sister Wei!”

    “No need to be polite, this is what Ying Ying exchanged with me with her ink treasures, I don’t lose out.” Wei Ruo said.

    “An inkpot? Sister you can still have an ink treasure?” Jue Xie looked at Xie Ying in surprise.

    “Why not, my paintings are great! Don’t you underestimate me!” Xie Ying said defiantly.

    While the siblings were fighting, Wei Ruo turned her head and said to Wei Jin Yi, “Second brother, do you want it or not, if you want it I’ll turn around and match it directly for you.”

    Wei Ruo thought, although the second brother’s body is strong, but this kind of medicinal bath more bubbles is not bad, especially he is a martial arts practitioner, daily exercise after the inevitable sinews and muscles have injured labor.

    “Uh-huh.” Wei Jin also nodded.

    Seeing that Wei Ruo was concerned about herself, Wei Jin also felt warmth wandering in her heart.
