PAMPERED CONSORT OF THE FRAGRANCE ORCHARD.BOOK 1

Chapter 35. Mysterious Book.

Luo Qi heard his own stomach calling and was somewhat embarra.s.sed.

“I’ll go cook your medicine first, then afterwards warm some porridge for you.” Du Xiao Li said, following which she turned and went out.

Silver was in the room the whole time. Seeing Du Xiao Li go out, he called out twice to Luo Qi, and then also went out.

“Wolf?” Luo Qi looked to Silver in shock. Why was there a wolf here? And even raised by a human! Just then, he heard Du Xiao Li’s voice from outside, “Silver, are you hungry? If your hungry, go into the mountains yourself to find food then. Also, see if you can hunt some wild rabbit and whatnot for the person inside to replenish some nutrients.”

At that moment, he recalled Du Xiao Li say just now that it was Silver that discovered himself, and even made her save himself. It was only at this time that he finally realize the ‘Silver’ she spoke of was that wolf.

A while later, Du Xiao Li came in carrying a bowl of medicine. Using the spoon, she fed Luo Qi spoonful by spoonful, saying: “Need to come up with a name for you, can’t always call you ‘hey’, right?”

“Name?” Luo Qi thought for a moment and said the word: “Luo.”

“Luo?” Du Xiao Li mumbled it twice and said, “Is this your surname?”

“I don’t know, just feel this is very familiar.” Luo Qi said.

“Then I’ll call you Luo Qi then.” Du Xiao Li recalled that there was a ‘Qi’ character on the back of that plaque in the bundle and said. Yet, she didn’t know that this just happens to be Luo Qi’s name.

Having fed Luo Qi his medicine, Du Xiao Li went out again to warm the meat porridge. Thinking back to when she was sick and could only eat wild vegetable porridge, she sighed again inside.

After warming the porridge, Du Xiao Li set aside a bowl for herself to cool. Afterwards, she carried a bowl to Luo Qi. While slowly feeding him, she slowly recounted what had happened the day before.

“Oh right.” Du Xiao Li had the bowl placed onto a stool, and took out the books and flute she brought back yesterday from the end of the bed. She waved it in front of Luo Qi and said, “Are you familiar with these two things?”

Luo Qi looked to the flute, then to the book, and shook his head, saying: “No impression.”

“Then never mind.” Du Xiao Li have the things put to the side and picked up the bowl, feeding him another bite, “Maybe someday you’ll remember.”

“Thank you for saving me.” Luo Qi suddenly spoke.

“If you want to thank, then thank my family’s Silver.” Du Xiao Li said, “If not for Silver discovering you, and then hunting back a wild animal, I definitely wouldn’t have saved you. One look, and I can tell you’re just the embodiment of trouble.”

Luo Qi didn’t get angry because of Du Xiao Li’s honesty, “Anyways, you’re ultimately the one that saved me, no?”

“I don’t like owing other people, and don’t like others owing me either. I took out a hundred taels from your money, just treat it as payment for saving you. The remaining silver I’ve put at the end of the bed for you. When you’re leaving after your injury heals, remembered to take it.” Du Xiao Li said.

(T/N: So I looked it up and one tael of silver in ancient times is worth like $300-$600; the value differs from dynasty to dynasty)

Luo Qi smiled and didn’t say anything.

Have to say, Luo Qi’s body was exceptionally good. Although Du Xiao Li used herbal medicine together with her silver needles to treat him. The results were very good, but his healing speed amazed even Du Xiao Li. After two days, the wounds on his body began to form scabs, and he could also sit up now.
