Xiao Jiannan was stunned and asked, "What do you mean by three days and three nights?" The child nodded and said, "I heard from your wife that you met the Japanese on the road and were shot because of your carelessness. Alas, these days, there is chaos and war…" The child was muttering to himself, when suddenly the door opened and a woman walked in. Xiao Jiannan looked up and saw Feng'er. She looked dry and her eye sockets were sunken. She was holding a medicine basin in her hand, which was steaming. Seeing that Xiao Jiannan had sat up, Feng'er showed joy and said, "Brother Xiao, you…you are awake?" Without giving Xiao Jiannan a chance to answer, she hurriedly told the child, "Xiao Sanzi, quickly tell the kitchen to cook a bowl of white porridge. Oh, and make some side dishes!" The child left immediately.
Feng'er carried the medicine basin to the bedside table and put it down, saying, "Brother Xiao, you…finally woke up, that's great!" Her expression was full of joy. Xiao Jiannan was confused for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Feng Er wiped her hands clean and reached out to unbutton Xiao Jiannan's shirt. Xiao Jiannan stopped her and Feng Er smiled and said, "Brother Xiao, I'll change the bandage for you!" Xiao Jiannan then noticed that the wound on his left shoulder had been rebandaged.
Feng Er then gently removed Xiao Jiannan's coat, untied the bandage on his shoulder, and began to clean his wound with a towel dipped in the medicine in the basin. Xiao Jiannan was completely confused for a moment, as if he could not believe the facts in front of him, and was passively manipulated by Feng Er.
Feng'er carefully cleaned his wound with medicine, reapplied herbs, and took a clean bandage to rewrap his shoulder. Xiao Jiannan felt a coolness on his wound, which was indescribably beneficial. After the wound was completely bandaged, Feng'er carefully helped Xiao Jiannan put on his coat, and then buttoned the front one by one. Xiao Jiannan looked at Feng'er with a frown, and suddenly, he grabbed Feng'er's hand and asked in a deep voice: "Feng'er, why don't you kill me?"
Feng'er was startled and her face turned red for a moment. She then broke free from Xiao Jiannan's hand. Her voice seemed a little panicked, and she said, "Brother Xiao, I… go wash my hands!" Xiao Jiannan looked at Feng'er, only to see her walk to the basin and wash her hands subconsciously. She seemed to be worried about something.
Xiao Jiannan naturally didn't know that Feng'er had rushed forward and pointed a gun at his head when he fainted three days ago. But at this moment, Xiao Jiannan, who was unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes, recognized Feng'er as his wife, and hugged her.
At this moment, Feng'er's hands and feet suddenly felt weak, and she suddenly remembered the story of Xiao Jiannan and his wife that Cui Erkuazi had told her intermittently. Her heart was moved, her eyes turned red, and she slowly put down the gun.
After that, she carried Xiao Jiannan on her back for a day and a night, and continued to climb over two mountains, and finally found the inn. Xiao Jiannan had been unconscious, and kept calling Qian'er's name. With the careful care of Feng'er and the innkeeper, he was finally rescued.
For a long time, in this small room, Xiao Jiannan sat at the head of the bed and Feng'er stood by the basin, both of them were emotionally beating, and no one spoke. Xiao Jiannan couldn't figure out why Feng'er didn't kill him, because only by killing herself could she survive. Feng'er was a well-trained spy, and she was doing this now, was there any other reason?
After an unknown amount of time, the door opened and the child named Xiao Sanzi and an old man in his fifties pushed the door open. Xiao Sanzi was holding a tray with a bowl of porridge and a few side dishes. Feng Er came to her senses and stepped forward to greet them. The old man said, "Big sister, I heard that your boss has woken up, come and see! Xiao Sanzi, hurry up and put the food on the table!"
Feng'er smiled slightly and said to the old man, "Boss, thank you for your care these days!" The old man said, "From what you said, your boss's injury is okay?" Feng'er nodded and said, "The fever has subsided. It's okay!" The old man smiled happily and nodded repeatedly, saying, "That's good, that's good…" Walking to the bed, she said to Xiao Jiannan, "Master, you are finally awake. Everyone has been worried about you these two days!" Xiao Jiannan smiled at the old man.
The old man sighed and said, "Speaking of these Japanese devils… Well, you and your wife should be more vigilant when you are traveling outside in the future!" Xiao Jiannan couldn't afford to die when he heard the old man mention the word "husband and wife" these days . He raised his eyes and looked at Feng'er beside him, only to see Feng'er lowering her head, her face slightly flushed, and her expression embarrassed.
The old man stood up and said, "Okay, uncle, it's good that you woke up!" He turned to Feng'er and said, "Oh, big sister, I have some excellent ginseng chicken soup stewing right now. I'll ask Xiao Sanzi to bring you a bowl later. It's free. It's for the master's health!"
When Feng'er heard the word "boss", she glanced at Xiao Jiannan on the bed, and said to the shop owner with a red face: "Boss, thank you so much!" The old man shook his head, pulled Xiao Sanzi towards the door, and muttered to himself as he walked: "It's a blessing to marry such a wife. Think about my husband at home, alas~~" As they spoke, the two had already left the room.
The atmosphere in the room was quite awkward at the moment. Feng Er lowered her head and said nothing. After a long time, she looked up and saw Xiao Jiannan looking at her. Her face turned red again. Feng Er said in a disguised manner: "By the way, Brother Xiao, I will help you wash your face. Eat something. You haven't eaten for three days and three nights!" Xiao Jiannan nodded.
Feng Er took a clean towel and wiped Xiao Jiannan's hands and face, then brought the porridge and side dishes on the table, scooped them up with a spoon, blew them cool with her mouth, and then handed them to Xiao Jiannan. Xiao Jiannan ate them mouthful by mouthful, with thoughts in his mind.
Feng Er served Xiao Jiannan food and cleared the dishes. She took out Xiao Jiannan's pistol from her pocket and said, "Brother Xiao, your gun!" Xiao Jiannan was stunned when he saw the pistol Feng Er handed over, and did not take it. Feng Er saw Xiao Jiannan staring at her in a daze, sighed, gently put the gun under Xiao Jiannan's pillow, sat on the chair next to the bed, and was silent for a long time, then slowly said, "Brother Xiao, actually… I am not Japanese!" Xiao Jiannan was stunned and said, "You are not Japanese?"
Feng Er nodded and said, "I was an orphan since I was young, and I grew up in Yuehonglou in Changchun City!" Xiao Jiannan's heart trembled. He had heard that Yuehonglou was the largest courtyard in Changchun City. Feng Er continued, "I heard from other sisters in the courtyard that I was sold there by human traffickers when I was young, just like them, and I don't even know who my biological parents are."
Xiao Jiannan nodded. It seemed that Feng'er's life experience was much more miserable than he had imagined. Feng'er said, "We were trained in various skills by the madam since we were young. We were frozen, scolded, and beaten every day. Because people like us were destined to be prostitutes after we were bought…" At this point, Feng'er choked up. After a pause, she said, "Many sisters were beaten to death before they grew up. Some escaped and were caught and beaten to death. I gritted my teeth and persevered, and finally became the top prostitute in Yuehonglou."
