Jiang Chun nodded without hesitation. “Then follow me.”
With that, she placed Cui Jin’s arm on her shoulder. Jiang Chun supported him as she walked towards the quiet path beside the factory carefully and listened to their surroundings attentively. Fortunately, as usual, she didn’t encounter anyone along the way.
Jiang Chun brought Cui Jin back to the kitchen and helped him sit on the hay pile against the wall. As Jiang Chun looked at the blood that kept flowing out from between her fingers, she said worriedly, “Your blood keeps flowing. I’ll go to the infirmary to get some medicine to stop the bleeding.” ...
Cui Jin hurriedly held Jiang Chun’s hand and said with a frown, “We can’t let anyone know that you bought hemostatics. Otherwise, you and I will be in danger. Give me some plant ash.”
Jiang Chun hurriedly went to the stove to fill a bowl. Then, she entered the room and took two rolls of gauze straps. She placed the cold water that had been boiled in the morning beside Cui Jin.
Cui Jin knew that this wasn’t the best way to treat his wound, but they had limited conditions now.
He endured the pain and tore open the cloth he had used to bandage the wound. Then, he washed the blood around the wound with cold water and placed a bowl of plant ash on the wound. However, he didn’t have the strength to bandage it anymore, so Jiang Chun helped bandage the strap around Cui Jin.
Cui Jin looked at Jiang Chun as he thanked her weakly. “Thank you for believing me.”
Jiang Chun pursed her lips and said with a smile, “I’ll cook first. Lie down for a while.”
Noodles were easy to digest, so Jiang Chun prepared two bowls of noodles and even placed two eggs in Cui Jin’s bowl.
Cui Jin looked at the bowl of noodles in Jiang Chun’s hand. Twofried eggs were lying above the white noodles. Green onions and vegetables floated above the clear soup. The hot noodles were emitting a rich aroma, making Cui Jin, who hadn’t eaten for a long time, swallow hard.
Cui Jin took out 0.5 yuan from his pocket.
Such a bowl of noodles would be sold for at least 0.3 yuan outside, and she had even given him bandages, so he still owed her. Hence, he handed it over awkwardly and said, “This is all I have now. I’ll make it up to you later.”
Jiang Chun waved her hand to reject him. It was her honor to be able to help a soldier that protected the country. How could she accept money? Besides, she could afford this. “Hurry up and eat.”
With that, Jiang Chun placed the noodles on the small stool in front of Cui Jin and turned around to return to the table to eat her own noodles.
Seeing this, Cui Jin didn’t say anything else and started eating.
Then, Jiang Chun washed the dishes. After glancing at Cui Jin, who was resting with his eyes closed, she tiptoed back to her room.
Cui Jin opened his eyes when he heard Jiang Chun’s footsteps. “Miss, is there a deep mountain that no one has gone to nearby?”
Jiang Chun was stunned for a moment before replying, “There are rumors that the back mountain behind my house is haunted, so no one goes there.”
Jiang Chun approached Cui Jin and asked, “Where do you want to go?”
When Cui Jin heard the description, he felt that it was a good place to hide. Not to mention that he didn’t believe that there were ghosts in the world, even if there were, ghosts couldn’t be more terrifying than humans. Hence, he nodded. “I’m very weak now, so I’ll have to trouble you to send me to the mountains. I don’t need you to go deep into the mountains. I can walk further in myself.”
Jiang Chun frowned and asked, “Are you worried that my family will discover you?”
With Cui Jin’s taciturn personality, he usually only gave orders and never explained them. However, the girl in front of him wasn’t his subordinate. If he didn’t explain clearly, the other party might not help.
“That’s one thing. Most importantly, here, it’s very easy for me to be discovered by the person I want to hide from. Once I enter the mountain, he won’t be able to do anything to me. I can also recuperate properly.”
When Jiang Chun heard this reason, she immediately nodded in agreement.
On the other side, Yu Bing and the others had just finished eating.
Zeng Li had been busy the entire morning, so he planned to rest in the county city in the afternoon and look for Yu Bing tomorrow.
Zeng Li grabbed the sack from the trunk, but he didn’t notice that there was a small hole at the bottom of the sack that was hooked to a small iron hook on the side of the carriage.
“Rip!”
When Yu Bing saw that a large hole was torn open under the sack, she hurriedly took a few steps forward and a few high school textbooks at the bottom fell out.
