Daqing Village.
Li Fu'er didn't know how much time had passed when she heard her father calling her again. She wasn't sure if her father was really alone outside, so she walked to the door. "Dad."
"Sister Fu, your grandmother and the others have gone to rest. Open the door, it's your dad."
Second Li's voice immediately sounded urgent.
"What's the matter, Father?" Li Fu'er knew that her father might want to persuade her and ask her why she entered Li Yan'er's room, even if he had to try for a long time.
"Father has something to tell you. Sister Fu, why did you enter Sister Yan's room? And…"
Second Li was at a loss for words.
Li Fu'er didn't want to hear it.
"Sister Fu, Sister Yan said to let you rest first. She and your grandmother went to sleep." Second Li's deep voice lowered. "If you don't want to see me, I'm fine! I brought the food over and placed it here. Open it and take it in first. Otherwise…" You haven't eaten properly for two days.
"Father." Li Fu'er was angry when she heard her father's worry because her father spoke up for Li Yan'er.
It was also because Li Yan'er was pretending to be aggrieved and magnanimous again!
But the anger was gone now. She looked through the window and saw no one.
There had been someone outside the window not long ago. She glanced out the door again.
"Father, have the others left? Father should be resting."
"Father will leave after you eat the food."
Second Li said.
Li Fu'er then moved the wooden cabinet that was in the way. A wooden cabinet. It was very new and Sister Yan had just started using it.
It was placed not far from the door, but she moved it over.
The wooden cabinet wasn't high and wasn't too heavy. After she moved it away, she easily opened the door. When she saw her father outside and was about to leave, she looked around. He hadn't lied to her. There was no one there. She was worried about someone rushing out.
"Father."
"Sister Fu, you're out?" Second Li turned around when he heard her and looked at his daughter hesitantly. It was very late. He couldn't stay here any longer. He rubbed his hands and pointed at the food placed outside. "The food is here. Eat it. Father is useless."
"Father, don't say that. As for food, I've already eaten," Li Fu'er said.
"Where did you eat?" Second Li asked, suddenly anxious and disbelieving.
Li Fu'er said, "I met a good person and he gave him some food."
"Good people? I'll go thank them! Sister Fu, I left that for you. If you don't need it, you can eat it next time. Don't go hungry. Do you want water? I'll get you water." Second Li opened his mouth and looked down at his daughter's dirty face.
Li Fu'er interrupted her father. "No need, Father. I…"
Second Li said that he was going to get water and left.
"Father," Li Fu'er called again, when no one was around. "What if I said that I fell down the mountain earlier and someone injured me and pushed me down?"
"What did you say, Sister Fu?" Second Li looked down at her in disbelief.
"Father." Li Fu'er looked at his father and said softly, "What if I said it was second sister?"
"How could that be? Sister Fu, are you mistaken? How could Sister Yan harm you? Sister Yan has always been worried about you," Second Li said in disbelief.
Li Fu'er looked as if she had expected this. "Father, you don't believe me? Have you ever thought of splitting up the family?" She asked directly.
"Split up?"
Second Li did not expect Sister Fu to say such a thing. Why would Sister Fu think of splitting up?
"That's right, Dad. Separate the families and live alone." Li Fu'er wanted to live alone, or with her father. She didn't want to live with her grandmother in the Li household anymore.
They think she's a jinx, don't they? Well, she had a space now, she was well enough, and she had medical skills.
When she found a way to get silver needles, she could sew up their mouths if they didn't want to listen.
"Sister Fu, why would you think that? Separate the family? Just us father and daughter?" Second Li really didn't understand why Sister Fu would think that. He wanted to persuade her to talk her out of it.
"Father thinks that I've been living well since I was young?" Li Fu'er asked. "What kind of life have I been living since I was young? Didn't you see it? Do you think that I'm fine?"
"Father is useless, Sister Fu!"
Second Master Li slumped down, squatting, not knowing what to do.
Li Fu'er said, "Dad, think about it."
"Sister Fu, I'm sorry that I didn't protect you. However, we can't split up the family whenever we want. Your grandmother and father will talk to her." Second Li said as he looked up. There was a stutter on his rough black face. He knew that Sister Fu was not doing well.
He didn't want this to go on, either.
It was all his fault!
"Father," Li Fu'er said. She didn't think that her first time persuading her father would be successful.
"I'll get you some water first," Second Li said hurriedly. He paused. "Sister Fu, sleep well tonight."
Li Fu'er said nothing.
"Also, it was Sister Yan who persuaded your grandmother to persuade everyone, Sister Fu," Second Li said as he left.
Li Fu'er said, "Father, I'm the same age as Second Sister, but compared to her—"
Second Li thought of the difference between Sister Yan and Sister Fu.
He was momentarily speechless.
He wanted to say that it was because Sister Fu was weak, but he knew that wasn't the case!
He wanted to hit himself on the head.
"Father, think about what I mean," Li Fu'er said anyway.
Second Li nodded and left.
Li Fu'er brought in the food her father had given her. A dry mixed-grain bun and a plate of wild vegetables. She sniffed them and threw them into her space.
She had killed both of the chickens she caught. She hadn't finished one yet. She glanced at it.
Soon, Second Li came back with water and said carefully, "Sister Fu."
Li Fu'er let her father bring it in.
Second Li brought it in and whispered that he had been very careful not to be seen. He asked her if she had eaten.
Li Fu'er said she had eaten.
She didn't want to let her father down. She only stayed because he treated her so well.
"Go rest, Father."
"Sister Fu, your injury." Second Li wanted to say something.
Li Fu'er covered her wound. "I'm fine, Father."
"Father doesn't have any medicine." Second Li tried to find it.
Li Fu'er told him she had looked for herbs to treat it.
Second Li nodded and left.
Li Fu'er looked at her father's hunched back. When she was young, her father was still a weak scholar. Unknowingly, he had grown old.
She closed the door firmly.
She washed her face and body with water. Wounds. She looked at the spiritual spring in her space. There was more spiritual spring water. She washed it with the spiritual spring water and didn't let it recover completely.
She lay back on the wooden bed. It was soft beneath her.
Thinking of what she had said to her father, Li Fu'er stopped herself.
Looking at everything that belonged to Li Yan'er in the room, she thought of the book. The original Li Yan'er seemed to have died at this time. The book did not mention much about Li Yan'er before she was reborn.
It was mainly about how Li Yan'er would please her family after her rebirth and what regrets she had in her previous life.
Of course, she would be sad if the original owner died!
There were not many other words about the original owner!
Li Yan'er had saved someone and Prince Ning Xiaoming counterattacked.
Thinking of this, Li Yan'er said, "You can't be with Prince Ning again!"
She gradually thought of something and fell asleep. However, she woke up before dawn. When she woke up, she looked for Li Yan'er's clothes and chose an old and smaller outfit that Li Yan'er had not worn before.
She didn't care if it looked good or not. She couldn't wear the clothes from yesterday, and she didn't have any extra clothes.
She got dressed, moved the cabinet, and walked out.
It was very dark outside and no one was up. She went to the kitchen alone. Everything in the kitchen was kept in the cupboards and locked. She went outside and went to the usual place to get food.
When she arrived.
She took the chicken out of the space and used the brightening sky to find some moss and other things to enhance the taste of the chicken. She reignited the fire and roasted the chicken.
With moss and a few other things, the roast chicken tasted a little better.
After eating, she decided to go into the mountains after dawn to get some things because she needed silver.
