Arrival in a Different World 035, Trust

  On this day, Su Lianwei was finally able to take a bath in the water.

  The door was tightly closed, and the room was filled with a misty vapor, and the scent of medicine wafted faintly through the air.

  Other women like to put some fresh flowers in the bathtub when bathing, for the sake of fair and smooth skin. But in Su Lianyi's bathtub, not even a petal can be found, instead, there are scattered medicinal materials.

  Lotus leaf, Alisma and Ginkgo biloba, these are some Chinese medicines that Lian Yi bought at the county town pharmacy when she was buying small millstones, soaking them in water can speed up blood circulation, promote metabolism and help with weight loss.

  The room was quiet, and Lianyi closed her eyes and leaned against the edge of the bathtub, but her mind kept thinking nonstop.

  Was she going to spend her whole life in Suzhai Village as Su Liangwei? Of course not! She wanted to get out of here and gain freedom.

  The problem in the past was that there was no money, but now that there is money, plans can be made ahead of time. The next issue to face will then be how to get out.

  She and Da Hu are in a cooperative relationship, and Da Hu will not allow her to leave like this, so she has to think of some excuses. Going to the county town alone? Da Hu will definitely be suspicious! Escaping by taking advantage of sending wine to Li's house? No, it might implicate Ma Da Shu as well.

  The room was quiet, not even the occasional sound of water could be heard. Su Lianying was quietly soaking in the bathtub, leaning against the edge, with her eyes closed and her head gently resting on her jade arm.

  Jet-black and dense hair like water plants hangs down in disorder, scattered on the shoulders, floating on the water. Dense eyelashes fall on the white face, like two feather fans.

  A wisp of fragrance, the sound of water suddenly burst forth in the quiet room, Su Lianying was like a snow lotus rising from the muddy water, the slightly dim room was radiant, not because of her skin tone, but because of her eyes.

  Those eyes were black and shiny, with a hint of victorious smile, as if after the recent contemplation, a life-changing decision had been made, no longer wavering, only firmness remained.

  Wipe the body clean, glance at the copper mirror beside. In the copper mirror, that figure is tall and slender, with skin as smooth as condensed milk, although still fat, but very symmetrical, giving people a comfortable feeling, regardless of beauty or ugliness.

  Su Lianwei was very fortunate, this body was only seventeen years old, still a girl, with extremely high plasticity. If she were to grow another ten or so years older, it would probably not be possible to lose weight so quickly.

  White undergarments, pink blue dress, although not considered elegant when worn on Su Lianyi's body, it has a kind of plump charm. Lianyi stroked the clothes on her body, thinking of her new friend Chu Xue who she had met in the past few days, and felt as if something was stuck in her throat.

  Reluctant to part.

  Pushing open the door, a big tiger was seen sharpening its knife in the courtyard. The bright moonlight illuminated everything, making lamps unnecessary, and the entire courtyard was enveloped in a silver glow.

  The big tiger who was sharpening his knife looked up and took a glance, his usual icy calm eyes showed a hint of astonishment, but it was fleeting, and he lowered his head to continue sharpening the knife.

  The evening breeze is no longer as cool as it used to be, carrying warmth, early summer has arrived.

  "Big Tiger, I want to discuss something with you." She said casually, walking into the kitchen, grabbing a handful of vegetables, and sitting down on the small bamboo stool at the kitchen door, peeling the vegetables as if nothing was wrong. In fact, only she knew the anxiety in her heart.

  Dà Hǔ's hand paused again, his thick eyebrows furrowed involuntarily. "En." For some reason, seeing Su Liangwei today gave him an inexplicable sense of estrangement, both unfamiliar and familiar at the same time.

  The silver moonlight was like a dream, illuminating the entire world with an air of nothingness. In this eerie silver light, Da Hu always felt that Su Lianying was about to leave, but where? Escape?

  "In the next few days, I'll go to Fangchi and visit my aunt's second sister, and also buy some seafood." This was Su Lianwei's excuse, which didn't involve anyone else.

  As expected, there's a ghost! Big Tiger threw down the sickle in his hand, sat upright on a small stool, furrowed his brow and stared at Su Lianhui who was picking vegetables, "What kind of sinister plot do you have?"

  With a burst of laughter, she threw away the vegetable in her hand and smiled brightly at the big tiger sitting two feet away from her. "What conspiracy could I, a village woman, have? Although Sun's body has recovered and he can go down to the fields, if we stop eating seaweed, who knows when his illness will relapse again? You've also seen the situation of Sun's family - they're as poor as can be; shouldn't we help them out?"

  The speaker has no intention, but the listener has his own interpretation.

  Su Lian's use of the word "we" left Da Hu stunned, with a strange feeling in his heart, as if they were already a family, a single entity.

  Habits are terrible things!

  The big tiger's voice was also calmer, "Let Zhao write a letter and find someone to deliver it. Whatever the price is, I'll pay."

  "How can we do that? They've already helped us a lot, how can we still trouble Auntie?" Lian Wei immediately retorted.

  The big tiger's eyes narrowed slightly as he scrutinized Su Lianwei, wanting to find some clues on her face. "You're going yourself?"

  "If you have time, come with me." The ripples on her pale face only showed sincerity, a pair of big eyes stared at Da Hu's eyes, extremely open and honest.

  For some reason, Da Hu suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, followed by an ear-root burning sensation. "I'm not going." He still had tasks on his body and couldn't leave Suzhai Village at all.

  A faint smile in his heart, he had been waiting for this sentence. He spread out his hands and said, "In that case, there's no other way, I'll have to do it alone."

  The big tiger lowered his head, picked up the knife and occasionally sharpened it on the whetstone. "Outside is not as good as you think, the emperor is critically ill, Nan Kang Wang and Dong Fu Wang who are stationed at the border have rebelled, in a chaotic world with many bandits, a lone woman should be careful, or else she will suffer consequences worse than death."

  The big tiger seems to be talking about the danger of Su Liang's departure from Fangchi, but in fact, it has another meaning.

  Her heart skipped a beat, which was also one of her concerns. Reality isn't like that, the protagonist always turns bad luck into good fortune, if a woman falls into danger, she can't really survive or die. It's all like this in modern times, let alone in ancient times when the law wasn't well-established.

  "Alright, I know, but Sujiacun and Fangchi are not far apart, there shouldn't be any danger, don't worry." Lianyi said. How can one give up hope without even going out to take a look?

  The big tiger accelerated the frequency of whetting his knife, and the ear-piercing sound of whetting grew louder. "Besides." The calmness just now was gone, replaced by coldness. "Su Feng, Su Hao, and Su Bai are all in Su's village. You can't run away from home even if you want to. If you really don't care about your life, I won't mind helping you take care of your family."

  Su Lian's hand trembled slightly, and she immediately pretended to be calm, picking up the vegetable leaves and continuing to pick vegetables. "You don't believe me that much?"

  Upon hearing this, the big tiger put down the knife in his hand and narrowed his eyes as he stared at the woman in front of him. "Do you want me to believe you?"

  Lianyi's hands moved even faster as she picked the leaves, but she didn't dare look up. "What did you say?"

  Dà Hǔ didn't respond for a moment, just as Sū Liǎn Wēi was about to look up, she felt a strong aura in front of her, and her chin was suddenly grasped, "You, do you want me to believe you?" It was Dà Hǔ.

  Her chin was pinched and she was forced to lift her head and look up at him.

  The tiger's face was covered in scars, but its eyes were deep and profound like a pool, the icy gaze was naked suspicion and scrutiny, the aura on its body made Su Lianhuan feel chilled to the bone.

  "...I hope so." She could only answer with this.

  She could see that the deep and cold eyes in front of her gradually had a temperature, as if he was not only forcing her, but also forcing himself.

  When her chin was finally free, Lianyi realized that her neck ached.

  "I hope you won't disappoint me." With that, Da Hu pulled down a towel from the rope in the yard and left.

  The big tiger left, the yard was empty, and Su Liangwei sat in the yard, staring at the bright moon hanging in the sky, trapped in a dilemma, not knowing where to go or what to do.

  Immortal water on the mountain, Immortal Water Pool, always icy and clear throughout the year, too deep to see the bottom.

  The naked tiger was quietly soaking in the water, and the silver moonlight made his sturdy muscles even more perfect. He raised his head and looked at the bright moon, but he was not a murderer, and everything he said today was also unavoidable.

  He really hopes that his collaboration with Su Lianwei can be successful and that Su Lianwei will not disappoint him.
