My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 267 Take me away

"Niannian, listen to me, I've been waiting for you to come back."

"It wasn't my intention to break off the engagement. But I was truly useless; I couldn't stand up to my father and mother, and I've caused you to suffer."

"It's understandable that you blame me for being annoying and not wanting to see me. It's my fault, I'm so useless, I can't even handle such a small thing."

"If I had known this would happen, I should have practiced martial arts diligently when you were going to teach me! At least if something happened, I could have run away!"

As he spoke, the young man became agitated again. "What should we do? Niannian, what do we do now? You don't really hate me, do you? Why don't you take me away, let's leave right now!"

Xin Nian: ...

What a tragedy! How many wicked things has she done in the past?

Looking at the pitiful young man in front of her, Xin Nian was at a loss.

"Lu, Mr. Lu, please calm down. Hey, sit down first." Xin Nian helped him sit up, her face full of conflicted expression.

"Why are you calling me Young Master Lu?" Lu Jingxian's pale and thin face looked even more pitiful. "You never used to call me so formally before?"

Xin Nian is almost bald from all the stress!
Scratching her head, Xin Nian was too lazy to struggle anymore, so she simply spoke frankly, "I've forgotten a lot of things! Um, Chi Jue told me about the Six Sworn Brothers. You know how time travel affects your brain. So what did I call you before?"

"Xiao Xian." Young Master Lu looked aggrieved, his face thin and pale, terribly gaunt.

Xin Nian coughed lightly, pulled his wrist to take his pulse, and said, "Xiao Xian, let's not get agitated. Let's talk things out. Although your illness isn't terminal, it seems quite serious right now."

"Especially your good-for-nothing mother. The medicine powder she gave you today reacted with the medicine you were already taking, which is why you vomited blood just now, you know?"

Lu Jingxian looked at her in astonishment, "My mother harmed me?"

"How can this child listen to anything?" Xin Nian said helplessly. "The Lady of Lin'an Marquis is your mother, so she probably wouldn't intentionally harm you, but she's definitely stupid."

"Listen to me, don't take any medicine other than the medicine that Doctor Zhuang gave you."

Lu Jingxian nodded obediently, "Yes, I'll do whatever Niannian says."

Xin Nian put down her fingers that were taking his pulse. "Then you need to rest well and follow the doctor's orders carefully, okay? Don't let Dr. Zhuang's hard work go to waste."

"Then take me with you," Lu Jingxian said softly, taking her hand.

Xin Nian immediately withdrew her hand.

Are you kidding me? If she were to take him away, wouldn't Lady Lin'an fight her to the death on the spot?

Xin Nian thought for a moment and comforted her, "You need to rest and recuperate recently, and you can't move around too much. It just so happens that we need to rest here for about half a month."

"Don't worry, I'll stay here at the camp. If your condition changes, I'll come over immediately."

"As for the engagement, it was decided by the older generation in a muddled way. Now that it's been abrogated, let nature take its course from here on out."

Seeing the light in the young man's eyes dimming away, Xin Nian continued, "Xiao Xuan, even without that damn marriage contract, we're still sworn siblings, aren't we? Don't worry, as long as I have food to eat, you won't be short of soup."

"Do you forgive me, then?"

“I’ve never blamed you at all.” Xin Nian reached out and pressed him down to lie down. “Don’t overthink it. I know your mother has a strong personality, and you’re so gentle and soft, it’s normal that you can’t handle her.”

"After all, here, the concept of filial piety is a huge deal, and it can completely crush you."

"You just focus on getting better. I'll come visit when I have time." Seeing him staring intently at her, Xin Nian coughed lightly and asked, "Do you have any other questions?"

Lu Jingxian shook his head, "I'll go with you once I'm better! I won't be a burden to you now."

“My mother wanted to just throw anyone at me, but I wouldn’t accept that.”

Why are you still leaving? Xin Nian was a little speechless.

Seeing his focused gaze, which held a hint of determination, she couldn't help but sigh. "That's fine then. Anyway, you're an adult, and you should be able to make your own decisions."

Lu Jingxian's eyes lit up, and he took her hand. "Then it's settled."

"Okay," Xin Nian thought. "I'll arrange a job for him then. If he has something to do, he won't be thinking about anything else."

Anyway, apart from Xiaochi's older brother, all the other sworn brothers have been gathered.

Adhering to the philosophy that "the more debts you have, the less you worry about them," Xin Nian didn't care anymore.

These people are all well-read and highly knowledgeable; they should all be useful in the future…

Seeing his tired expression, Xin Nian sighed, took out a handmade pill, and told him to swallow it with water.

"You should rest well. You'll feel much better after a good night's sleep." After Xin Nian administered the acupuncture, Lu Jingxian drifted off to sleep.

She stood up and casually unlocked the soundproof barrier. Lady Lin'an, the Marquis of Lin'an, rushed in, her eyes bloodshot with rage. "You, what did you do to my Xian'er?"

Xin Nian didn't bother to talk to this dim-witted woman and walked straight up to Lu Zhilan. "Come with me."

Lu Zhilan eagerly followed Xin Nian out of the wooden shed. "Sixth Miss, is there anything you need me to do?"

"Here you take this. Give your brother one pill every afternoon, don't give him more. This is a homemade nutritional pill. Your brother is weak and lacks nutrition, he needs to be properly nourished."

"But his stomach is too weak to take any more tonics right now, so he can't take too much at once. One pill a day is enough. This is a seven-day supply. You have to remember to take it every day and not miss a single one."

Lu Zhilan nodded quickly, took the porcelain bottle from her with both hands, and curtsied. "Thank you, Sixth Miss. My attitude was poor earlier. I was just too anxious. Please forgive me for my inappropriate words."

Xin Nian snorted, "You've got guts. Not bad for a young lady like you. I'm magnanimous and won't bother arguing with you."

Lu Zhilan lowered her eyes, smiled, and bowed again. "Yes. Then, Miss Six, is there anything else I should be aware of?"

"Hmm...can you cook him some porridge every day? Do you have millet porridge?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

“His stomach still needs to be taken care of. We’ll be staying here for a while, so make him some porridge every day. Don’t give him those coarse grain cakes, he can’t digest them right now.”

"I saw a small jar of oily meat broth on his bedside table? Don't eat that either. He needs to eat a light diet because of the medication he's taking."

"Oh, okay, okay." Lu Zhilan nodded repeatedly and then explained, "Miss Yan just brought it over. I also said I couldn't eat it, but Mother insisted that Third Brother needs to eat more."

Xin Nian rolled her eyes. "Don't listen to her. She doesn't know anything. She just gave your brother some incompatible medicine."

Just then, Lady Lin'an, supported by Granny Chun, rushed over. "Xin Liu, what did you do to my son? Why has he been unconscious all this time?"

"Mother, the sixth young lady is saving her brother. Please don't be so rude."
