Chapter 22: You Look Like A Beggar
Climbing into her mule cart, Xu Xiang took out a small wooden basin and a small cotton towel from her space. She filled the small wooden basin with water, and then returned to Xiao Shao with the small wooden basin and a small cotton towel.
She put the small wooden basin on the ground and handed him the small cotton towel. Seeing that he was only staring at her without taking the small cotton towel, she put the small cotton towel in his hand and spoke in a flat tone.
"Wipe your body clean. You look like a beggar."
The beggar Xiao Shao: "...."
Leaving this sentence behind, she returned to her mule cart. In the cart, Xu Xiang took out another pack of medicine bought from Bei Qiang City. She also took out a small package of recovery medicine powder from the space.
She opened the medicine pack, sprinkled the recovery medicine powder on it, and packed it up. She went back to the bonfire, cleaned up the medicine pot, poured the pack of medicine into it, and added two bowls of water. Afterwards, she added some dry twigs to the remaining fire amber, blew on it, and rekindled the fire.
She didn't put the pot of medicine on top of the bonfire until the fire lit up. Sitting not far from her, Xiao Shao watched her preparing his medicine while wiping his face and body. Looking at her calm and serious face, he suddenly felt that it was really rude for him to keep staring at her. But the more he observes her, the more attracted he is to her.
Xu Xiang didn't know what he was thinking at this moment, and turned to look at him after put the medicine pot on top of the fire. Seeing that he looked clean and refreshed after wiping his body, she got up and approached him. When she bent down to take the small wooden basin away, she saw the color of the water inside. She paused, and the originally expressionless face suddenly became stiff.
She stared at the water for a while, then slowly raised her eyes to look at Xiao Shao. Seeing her staring at him with surprise clear in her eyes, he turned his head away in embarrassment. After staring at him for a few more seconds, she silently picked up the small wooden basin and the small cotton towel.
