Section 63

  Happy Youth Day! Hugs.

  Advertisement time: Arrived in Chongqing on the afternoon of May 8th to play, readers and friends in Chongqing can contact me through Tianya message or QQ to gather together, and I also brought some small gifts for everyone.

  (61)

  The Western doctor was a German, who flipped up Shen Shuxian's eyelids and put the cold stethoscope on her chest to listen to her heartbeat, asking Xu Saihan some symptoms.

  She was given a box of medicine and told to take one pill every day. She would soon recover, but she could only take one pill at a time, or there would be side effects.

  Shen Shuxian took the medicine and said thank you to the doctor.

  During the day, only Shen Shuxian and Jingyi were at home. The two would chat, read the newspaper for the day, and then go for a walk. There was a park nearby. As they looked around, spring arrived. Perhaps it was the effect of the medicine, but she no longer had nightmares. She wasn't afraid to sleep in her own room either. What was there to be afraid of? One shout would bring Xu Saihan over.

  It seems this is one of the reasons why being in love is better than being single.

  Xu Baoshan also hopes that her body will recover as soon as possible, he advocates for traditional Chinese medicine, called a traditional Chinese doctor to diagnose her illness, and prescribed a prescription of chicken blood vine, cooked rehmannia, raw rehmannia, albizzia bark, black cohosh, polygonum multiflorum, and night blooming jasmine, decocted the medicine and had her drink it.

  Shen Shuxian was very grateful. Originally, she had heard that Xu Baoshan was a fierce and abnormal person, but at home he was not so, and in front of Xu Saihan, he still had some paternal authority. However, every weekend Xu Sailu would come, and he would be helpless, no matter how busy he was, he had to accompany his daughter for dinner and drive her around. He also valued Shen Shuxian very much, many people knew that Shen Shuxian was recuperating at home and sent gifts, which piled up into a small mountain beside her bed.

  Sometimes they chatted, Xu Baoshan liked Shen Shuxian's listening eyes, sitting quietly, occasionally interjecting, "Oh, Uncle said it was true? Really hope to hear about the things you've experienced."

  Xu Baoshan didn't tell Jingyi and Saire about his youthful experiences because they would remind him that he had already talked about it.

  Shen Shuxian listened intently, even laughing with joy at the interesting parts. Xu Baoshan's enthusiasm grew thicker, "In the past when I was a salt smuggler, I often lived on small boats, my whereabouts were unpredictable, and I would eat in the wind and sleep under the dew. Later as the leader of the gang, I never had three meals on time, sometimes not even one meal would reach my mouth, and I didn't have a good night's sleep for a long time. Sometimes I slept in a land temple, sometimes in a wheat field or reed field, no matter where I slept, I always wrapped a stick of incense around my hand, when the incense burned to my fingers, I had to quickly get up and change places to avoid being caught. Even sleeping in a coffin, this way I could sleep for a while longer, but it was very troublesome, first I had to pry open the coffin lid, after entering, I also had to find a large brick to prop up the coffin lid, otherwise I would suffocate."

  Shen Shuxian nodded, and couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy. It turned out that the glamorous exterior wasn't entirely glamorous after all, and people like Xu Baoshan were no exception.

  "It's alright now, no need to always worry about these things. I know many people want to kill me, but I'm not afraid, I'm a tiger after all." He then burst into loud laughter.

  Looks quite refreshing when smiling.

  The next afternoon, Shen Shuxian put the finished sweater on Xu Saihan's neck and asked, "Is your father really that fierce?"

  Xu Saihan put on his clothes while laughing and said, "My grandfather passed away very early, my father traveled all over the place, making many friends. He was tall and strong, with exceptional martial arts skills, proficient in knife, gun, sword, and stick fighting. His personality was bold and generous, and he loved to fight for justice. For his friends, he would sacrifice his life without hesitation. Every time he fought, he could take down several people at once, so the people of Zhenjiang feared him like a tiger and gave him the nickname 'Xu Lao Hu' (Old Tiger Xu)." After finishing speaking, he let out a few loud "roars" to mimic a tiger's call.

  Shen Shuxian smiled and said, "Then this time you go to Beijing, I'll stay with Lao Hu, no one will dare to bully me."

  Xu Saihan tried on the clothes, and they fit perfectly. The warm down jacket was just what she liked. She kissed him on the mouth as a thank you. "My father came from a poor background, so he also appreciates you very much. When he smuggled salt in the past, every boat would take out two or four packages to store and give to those poor people to eat. At that time, some people didn't have salt to eat, so they went to scrape the mud next to the toilet to extract the salt from the urine. It was very pitiful. When winter came, he would send clothes and porridge, and when there were floods or droughts, he would donate rice, flour, and cakes to those villagers. So although he speaks roughly, he is a good person."

  Shen Shuxian nodded and thought for a moment, "When are you coming back?"

  "I haven't even left yet, and you're already waiting for me to come back." Xu Saihan put on his coat, "At home, my parents have servants to take care of them, just take care of yourself, I'll be back as soon as possible."

  See him off at the gate, and see him get on the bus, wave goodbye, the car drove away, feeling a little sad.

  Is Shen going to murder the tiger? With her medicine? Or has she already fallen in love with it before killing it and can't bear to kill it?

  But Shen is still miserable. The female leads of the sugar-coated dramas are all pitiful, but even if Shen is an undercover agent now, I won't feel sorry for her even if she dies.
