Hearing this, Ye Li was completely helpless. She frowned and said, "Then how do I go back?"
Doctor Lin rolled his eyes and said, "How would I know? This old man saved you, do you think I have to be responsible for sending you home? First, after you give birth to the child, take care of your body, and see if anyone is willing to send you back. But I don't think so! Second, settle down in the village and live a good life after you marry someone. Forget about the past. Don't worry, the young men in this village are all pretty good. They won't dislike you because you've been married before. Do you want this old man to act as a matchmaker for you? " Ye Li directly rolled her eyes at him. Although they had only known each other for less than a day, she could tell that this old man was a strange old man who didn't act like an old man. She calculated in her heart. It would take at least four more months for her to give birth to the child. In addition, after the child was born, she still needed to take care of it for a period of time before she could leave. In other words … … she would need at least six months before she could leave. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but frown. But at this time, there was nothing she could do. She could only hope that Hong Zhou and Mo Xiuyao were safe and sound. At the very least … … she still wanted the baby to be alive, right? Ye Li lowered her head and gently stroked the baby who would occasionally move. She faintly smiled.
"Humph! Are you thinking about that heartless lover of yours? "Doctor Lin snorted and squinted his eyes at her gentle and smiling expression.
Ye Li helplessly smiled and said, "He's the father of my child, my husband. And he's very good to me. "
"If he's very good, will you appear here?" Doctor Lin snorted disdainfully. At a glance, he could tell that this girl came from a scholarly and wealthy family. If she was very good, she should have been raised in a boudoir and lived a life of luxury. Which noble family's daughter would wander to this place? At the very least, this was the first time this old man had seen someone like this in his sixty years of life.
Ye Li faintly smiled and didn't refute his words.
Xiuyao … … I'll take the baby back very soon … …
Staying in this isolated and quiet village, Ye Li's health improved day by day under Doctor Lin's care. Ye Li was surprised that such a skilled doctor like Doctor Lin could be found in such an isolated mountain village. Including a famous doctor like Shen Yang, Ye Li had seen many skilled doctors. But even so, this unknown Doctor Lin's medical skills could be said to be one of the best. Ye Li had seen with her own eyes how he helped a young man from the village who had broken his leg while hunting in the mountains. Originally, Ye Li thought that the young man would at least be crippled, but after a month, he was able to walk on his own. Although there were still some inconveniences, she could see that the young man would be able to walk as if he was flying after resting for two or three months.
Sensing Ye Li's surprised gaze, Doctor Lin looked at her proudly and said, "How can an ordinary person like you understand my medical skills?"
The corner of Ye Li's mouth twitched. She lowered her head and saw that she was immersed in a large number of medical books that Doctor Lin had thrown over. Now, the child was already more than seven months old. After nursing her for more than a month, Doctor Lin looked at her from the corner of his eyes as usual. He stared at her bulging abdomen and snorted, "This boy is very lucky. In the future, he will be a headache." Hearing this, Ye Li gently stroked her abdomen and smiled. He accompanied her to fall from the cliff and lie down for four months. Wasn't he very lucky? While reading the medical books, she watched Doctor Lin busily arrange the herbs he had brought back from the mountains outside the house. Ye Li asked curiously, "Doctor Lin, you … … are different from the people in this village." Doctor Lin's hands paused for a moment before he quickly resumed his work. He didn't even raise his head as he said, "Are you the same as them?" Ye Li smiled and said, "Then, Doctor Lin, are you admitting that you came from outside like me?"
Doctor Lin was different from the people in this village. Ye Li had noticed it when he woke up two days ago. The people in this small village respected this old doctor. It was not only because of his excellent medical skills, but also because of his profound knowledge that was different from the people in this village. No matter what era it was, the common people would always have extra respect for scholars. Doctor Lin's home also had a special study room. It was neatly filled with all kinds of books. Ye Li casually picked up two books and found that one of them was an ancient book that had been lost in the previous dynasty. It was very strange for such a person to appear in this small village where almost no one was literate. Moreover, it was said that he had lived here for decades. Doctor Lin stood up and patted his hands. He looked at Ye Li and said, "This old man can also see that you are not an ordinary girl from a noble family. These days, you must have inquired about me in the village, right? "
Ye Li pursed her lips and smiled faintly. She did not deny it. These days, she had indeed inquired about Doctor Lin. However, there was nothing special. Doctor Lin had moved to this village thirty years ago. It was said that his surname was Lin. However, because most of the people in this village had the surname Lin, Ye Li felt that this rumor might not be true. It was said that at that time, he had an infant named Lin Yuan who was still in swaddling clothes. However, eleven or twelve years ago, Lin Yuan left the village and never came back. Doctor Lin didn't look for him either. After so many years, many people gradually forgot that there was such a person in the world.
"Doctor Lin, have you not planned to leave this place?" Ye Li asked.
Doctor Lin's eyes were somewhat dim. After a while, he said, "This old man is already so old. Where else can I go? It would be better for me to stay here and treat the villagers. In the future, when I die, they can bury me or something. "Feeling the sadness in the old man's eyes, Ye Li thought for a moment." Doctor Lin, have you not thought of looking for your son? Perhaps I can be of some help. "Doctor Lin snorted coldly." He won't come back. Moreover, he is not my son. "
Ye Li raised her eyebrows. She decided to end the conversation here. Doctor Lin was clearly not a person who liked to cultivate. His temper was not very good.
After confirming that Doctor Lin said that she would not be able to leave this remote village for the time being, Ye Li felt at ease and decided to stay here. Ten days after she woke up, a small wooden house was built next to Doctor Lin's house. Then, she moved in. Usually, Ye Li would walk around the village and chat with the villagers. Sometimes, she would help Doctor Lin with some trivial chores. After meals, she would put a room full of books in Doctor Lin's house. Gradually, Ye Li's room was filled with books. Regarding the matter of Ye Li taking away his ancient books, Doctor Lin did not express anything. No one in this village could read or write. Ever since the child he raised left this place eleven years ago, those books were just left there, and no one would look at them again. For the rest of the time, Ye Li used a simple hairpin that she always carried with her to exchange for some soft cloth with a girl in the village who knew how to weave cloth. In a few months, the child would be born. She had to prepare clothes for the child.
Looking at the simple and somewhat rough cloth in her hand, Ye Li felt a slight bitterness in her heart. If it wasn't here, the child would definitely eat and use the best things when he was born. But now … Looking up at the setting sun outside the house, Ye Li sighed softly. The outside world was probably in a state of war. At least it was much safer here, wasn't it?
