The rain finally stopped after a while, and Tan Zhenghong woke Qiao Duo'er up; the four of them descended the mountain together.
Tan Zhenghong even harnessed the ox-cart to rush them to town, his reasoning was simple: human life was of vital importance, and since Bai Yifan had helped them, they ought to repay the kindness like a spring that flows back.
But no matter how great the favor was, they shouldn't even think about laying a hand on his future wife.
Because she had gotten wet in the rain, Qiao Duo'er developed a slight fever again.
Uneasy, Tan Zhenghong asked Aunt Huang to come over to take care of her.
Aunt Huang believed Qiao Duo'er's illness was due to the couple meeting before their wedding, so she was very strict about this matter.
After taking medicine for three days, Qiao Duo'er was feeling much better.
She wanted to go up the mountain to look for Star-of-Bethlehem, but Tan Zhenghong disagreed, and Aunt Huang also wouldn't let her go out.
