Chapter 385 Han Yuxiu's Story
Han Yuxiu sat up in bed and rubbed his eyes.
The Korean physician was outside shaking a winnowing basket; the sun was shining brightly, perfect for drying medicinal herbs.
"Mother, Wu Ziyan said he wants to invite me to go outside the city. I remember you said that there are five poisonous snakes in that place, right? We can go catch them."
"Yes, that's a good aphrodisiac snake, it's especially good for treating impotence."
"Mother, have many people been asking for this medicine lately?"
"I'm afraid you might need it later,"
"I'm a doctor myself, how could I possibly need it?"
"Isn't that your wedding day? It's almost here. I'm worried you might go astray, so I need to prepare in advance."
Han Yuxiu: ...
Han Yuxiu was going to the outskirts to collect herbs, so he wore a coarse blue cloth shirt with two sleeve straps.
He rolled up his sleeves and stuck his hair up high, making him look like a silly-looking young man.
"You went out with Wu Ziyan, why didn't you dress up properly? You went like this?"
"Do I need silk and satin to complement me? Besides, I'm going to catch snakes today, and it would be too inconvenient to wear them."
"Fine, fine, whatever you say."
Han Yuxiu had just finished getting ready to leave when Wu Ziyan was already knocking on the door.
She was dressed in a bright orange-yellow short outfit today, which looked quite capable and matched Han Yuxiu's blue-green outfit.
He opened the door: "Wu Ziyan, you're surprisingly punctual today."
"Yu Xiu, when have I ever been late?"
Looking outside, there were no carriages. Riding a horse was a bit bumpy, but I got used to it after a while.
"To get outside the city, you have to go up the mountain, which is inconvenient, so you can only ride a horse."
"Then bring two more cloaks, it's foggy up in the mountains and it might get cold."
The Korean physician had a kind face, just like an ordinary mother caring for her child.
Xiu took the clothes, picked up the basket, and placed it on the horse's back.
Wu Ziyan wasn't even as tall as him. He mounted his horse, and the two half-baked men leisurely rode their horses out of the city.
"Wu Ziyan, why did you suddenly decide to ask me to go outside the city? When I asked you, you were being all mysterious and wouldn't answer. Are you trying to play a trick on me again?"
"To tease you? How bored could I be? I just happened to hear there are five poisonous snakes on that mountain."
"But if Doctor Han needs it, and you're so filial, you'll definitely go and get it, right? I don't trust you to go alone."
What they didn't know was that this five-venomous snake also had another name: the Spring Sun Snake, which sounded like a very unusual snake.
"Yes, it is."
Han Yuxiu thought Wu Ziyan would prepare some kind of surprise for him, but it turned out to be just a simple trip.
The two strolled leisurely until they reached the outskirts of the city. As expected, the mountain road was difficult to traverse, and Han Yuxiu began to complain.
"Wu Ziyan, what kind of path are you leading us down? It's not easy to walk at all!"
"How was I supposed to know this road would be so difficult to walk on after it rained the other day? Stop complaining, hey, don't walk so fast, my legs are short!"
Han Yuxiu was speechless for a moment, then turned around and pulled her back.
As a result, with a sudden pull, he was also pulled down, almost falling into her arms.
"Wu Ziyan, have you been eating too much? You've gotten so heavy."
"Can you please stop saying that? If you keep saying that, I'll only be able to eat two bowls of rice next time!"
She gave Han Yuxiu a push and continued walking until they finally reached a flat road, but the fog was so thick that they could barely see the road ahead.
A rustling sound came from the fog. Although Wu Ziyan said she was going to help Han Yuxiu catch the snake,
However, she really didn't like these mollusks.
Besides, it's called the Five Poisonous Snakes, which sounds like you'll die if you get bitten.
She grabbed Han Yuxiu's arm: "Yuxiu, did you hear anything?"
"It might be a bird or something like that."
"No, it's that crawling sound?"
"Oh, that might be the Five Poisonous Snake. Quickly put on these gloves, and if it runs out, we'll catch it."
"Han Yuxiu, I think we should keep moving forward. The destination I'm taking you to isn't here."
"No matter where we're going, since the snake's here, let's catch it first, and even take the basket with us."
Looking at Han Yuxiu's confident expression, Wu Ziyan realized that he wouldn't go back without catching a few snakes today.
"Han Yuxiu, do you know I'm afraid of snakes?"
"I know, then you just watch me catch it!"
They could only hear rustling sounds, getting closer and closer.
Wu Ziyan felt the hairs on her body stand on end; she could hardly imagine what it would feel like to hold a snake in her hand.
But Han Yuxiu remained crouched in the grass for a while without moving. She called out, "Han Yuxiu, you weren't bitten, were you?"
"Shut up, you're the one who got bitten!"
You should know that Han Yuxiu's words are always quite accurate.
Han Yuxiu picked up a small, reddish snake, turned around, and glanced at Wu Ziyan.
The snake broke free from Han Yuxiu's grasp, practically flying out and biting Wu Ziyan's arm.
Although she was wearing thick clothes, she still got scrapes. Although the poison had no effect on her, the medicine did.
The snake venom automatically converts into that kind of tonic.
Anyway, he didn't feel anything at the time, and Wu Ziyan didn't care about feeling disgusted. He grabbed it and threw it into the basket.
Han Yuxiu covered the basket as if it were a precious treasure, afraid that Wu Ziyan would strangle it to death, before asking her with concern, "Are you alright?"
"It's alright, I'm immune to all poisons, let's go."
"You're being so mysterious, where are you taking me?!"
"Just come with me."
As I passed through the fog, I seemed to see light gradually appearing ahead.
There seemed to be wisps of floral fragrance drifting into their nostrils.
It turns out that there is a large slope of forget-me-nots on this hillside.
It was Wu Ziyan who came here for the first time after seeing that someone had bought this and inquired about the location.
His eyes were filled with shock; he had never imagined there was such a large patch of forget-me-nots.
At this moment, he looked at Wu Ziyan, his eyes changing: "Hmph, don't think that just because you brought me here, I will forgive you."
"Yu Xiu, I was wrong."
But seeing such a beautiful view before him, Han Yuxiu couldn't bear to spoil the mood.
He looked at Wu Ziyan, and she seemed to be acting strangely. Her face was flushed and her eyes were somewhat unfocused.
"Wu Ziyan!"
"Yu Xiu, I feel like something's not right. I feel really hot."
He was familiar with these symptoms, but this was completely unexpected; how could he have been given this kind of medicine?
The only possibility is that she was bitten by a snake.
Now that I think about it, no wonder snakes are said to have aphrodisiac properties; that's what it meant.
Han Yuxiu had a selfish thought. He didn't intend to cure her poison, but something was wrong. She was immune to all poisons!
The two of them crushed a large section of the Forget-Me-Not Slope. Han Yuxiu blushed, but still held onto his last shred of decency.
He straightened his clothes, and Wu Ziyan, still somewhat unsatisfied, blinked.
After returning home, they worked through the night to decorate with red silk and the character for "double happiness." The next day, they hurriedly carried the bridal sedan chair to the gate of the Han residence. The ten-mile-long procession of red bridal procession became a popular story in every household.
夜晚
Wu Ziyan suddenly lifted the veil, her eyes gleaming with a mischievous glint as she stared at Han Yuxiu.
"Han Yuxiu, look at me. Why are you turning your head away? Weren't you quite proactive yesterday?"
"turn around!"
With her hand hooking his chin, Han Yuxiu's makeup today was exquisite.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and he swallowed hard: "Wu Ziyan..."
The red candles are blown out, the spring curtains are in disarray, hairpins and ornaments are scattered, and the crimson tide of love is overflowing...
