Chapter 39 Blushing

Jiang Zhiluo was surprised. She didn't expect that she was seen saving someone that day.

Yao Tong is the trusted servant of their young master Zhuang Xing'an.

So he lent the set of silver needles to Jiang Zhiluo.

…

Jiang Zhiluo quickly ran back to the village with the medicine and the set of acupuncture needles.

Jiang Zhiluo estimated that it took more than an hour to go back and forth.

Although it was spring, the temperature difference between day and night was large, and it was still very cold in the middle of the night. However, Jiang Zhiluo ran all the way and did not feel cold. She even had a thin layer of sweat on her body.

She ran back home at great speed.

After running back, I was still a little out of breath.

When Mrs. Cui saw Jiang Zhiluo coming back, her heart finally settled down.

She was really worried about Jiang Zhiluo.

Because of worry, he would often talk to his son Cui Hejin about Jiang Zhiluo's good points.

Old Madam Cui had been taking care of Cui Hejin for more than half an hour, occasionally soaking a towel in water and placing it on Cui Hejin's forehead to help him cool down.

"I'm glad you're back."

Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mom, I've got some medicine. Please help boil it while I take care of him."

Mrs. Cui nodded.

Jiang Zhiluo told Mrs. Cui how to decoct the medicine, and Mrs. Cui went to the kitchen and lit a pine oil candle to boil the medicine.

Jiang Zhiluo took out the set of acupuncture needles and looked at them. After making sure there was no problem, she walked to the bedside and reached out to undress Cui Hejin.

At this moment, Cui Hejin suddenly grabbed Jiang Zhiluo's hand, and his beautiful eyes opened with a cold and lonely light. He said in a weak voice, "What are you going to do?"

Jiang Zhiluo originally thought that Cui Hejin was unconscious and wanted to help him take off his clothes, but she didn't expect him to open his eyes just like that, catching her off guard.

Jiang Zhiluo adhered to the principle that if I am not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed, and said calmly: "You have caught a cold, a fever and a cough. The situation is quite serious. If you don't get treatment in time, it will easily lead to pneumonia."

"There's no doctor available late at night, so I can only give you acupuncture treatment. It will help you get better faster."

"But for acupuncture treatment, you need to take off your shirt."

"But if you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. If you take medicine, your recovery will be much slower."

"Besides, if you keep taking medicine, it's not cheap. Acupuncture can help you get better sooner."

"You don't want Mom to worry, do you?"

The acupuncture she used was not just any ordinary acupuncture.

Acupuncture treatment supplemented by wood-related abilities can naturally cure Cui Hejin quickly.

It depends on whether he cooperates or not.

"you……"

Cui Hejin's ears flushed instantly, but it was not visible under the cover of night.

"cough……"

He knew that every word Jiang Zhiluo said almost hit his soft spot.

Cui Hejin closed his eyes tightly, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart, and said with trembling hands: "I can do it myself!"

Jiang Zhiluo withdrew her hand and shrugged.

In fact, the flame of the oil lamp was very dim, and even if Cui Hejin took off his clothes, she couldn't see clearly.

She has mastered the art of acupuncture to perfection, and she will not make a mistake even if she cannot see clearly.

Jiang Zhiluo turned around and said, "Okay, call me!"

Cui Hejin took a few breaths, stretched out his slender jade-like fingers, and took off his coat.

“Ahem…”

This activity made Cui Hejin cough even more violently, as if his heart and lungs were about to be coughed out.

After a while, Cui Hejin closed his eyes and said, "I'm fine."

Jiang Zhiluo turned around, and the silver needles pinched between her fingers pierced Cui Hejin's acupoints at an extremely fast speed.

Her hand speed was so fast, like an afterimage.

Moreover, the wood-type supernatural power entered his acupoints along with the silver needles, and a warm force seemed to gradually spread to his limbs and bones, dispelling the coldness in his body.

Gradually, Cui Hejin felt much more comfortable. Perhaps because he was extremely tired, he slowly fell asleep.

It was unknown how long it had been, but when he was half asleep and half awake, Cui Hejin opened his eyes and was woken up by Old Madam Cui and asked to drink a bowl of medicine.

Cui Hejin fell asleep again.

The next morning, when the sun rose, Cui Hejin slowly opened his eyes.

He looked slightly dazed.

When he turned around and saw the person lying beside the bed, Cui Hejin's expression changed.

He now thought of what happened last night and his ears turned slightly red.

But when I looked at the clothes on him, he was wearing them intact.

If he didn't have a clear memory, he would probably have thought that last night was a dream.

So she helped him put on his clothes?

Thinking of this, the blush on Cui Hejin's ears spread to his face.

"cough……"

When Cui Hejin was about to cough, he quickly suppressed it.

Now he felt much better. His headache was gone, his body felt lighter, and he could suppress his cough.

After feeling it carefully, I found that my throat felt much better.

Cui Hejin looked at Jiang Zhiluo who was sleeping on the bed, his eyes deep, as if thinking about something.

After waking up and making breakfast, Mrs. Cui gently pushed open the door to the inner room and saw that her son had woken up.

Looking at Jiang Zhiluo lying on the bed and sleeping, he whispered distressedly: "Zhiluo, wake up."

Jiang Zhiluo was a light sleeper, so she got up quickly when she heard the noise. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Cui Hejin was fine.

Madam Cui said, "You've been busy all night. Have breakfast first. After breakfast, go to my room and take a nap. I'll take care of He Jin."

Jiang Zhiluo shook her head and said, "It's okay. I won't be sleepy anymore after I wake up."

When she just woke up, Jiang Zhiluo's voice had a sweet tone, which was very different from her usual self, and she looked very cute.

When she was in the organization in her previous life, she once had a mission where she only slept two or three hours a day, but it was not a big deal.

I don’t know how I fell asleep last night, but I was fine after a while.

She didn't care about herself and instinctively reached out to take Cui Hejin's pulse.

Then she reached out and touched his forehead. "Yeah, the fever's gone. I feel much better. I'll be almost fine after taking the medicine for another three days."

Jiang Zhiluo didn't notice that when she put her hand on Cui Hejin's head, Cui Hejin's body stiffened.

Jiang Zhiluo went to the yard to wash up. Old Madam Cui looked at Cui Hejin and said, "Zhiluo took care of you all night last night. I asked her to sleep, but she refused. She said she knew medical skills and it would be more reassuring to watch over you."

"You don't know how serious your condition was last night. It scared me. Fortunately, Zhiluo knows medical skills, and your fever finally subsided."

There are no good doctors in the countryside, and catching a cold can be fatal at any time.

Old Madam Cui didn't dare to sleep soundly all night.

"Zhiluo is so good to you, you must remember to treat Zhiluo well in the future."

"You must cherish such a good daughter-in-law."

Old Madam Cui knew that her son had a cold personality and might not know how to take care of girls, so she could only give him more advice as a mother.

After Mrs. Cui finished speaking, there was no reaction from Cui Hejin.

She looked up at Cui Hejin and saw her son leaning on the head of the bed, looking out the window. There seemed to be a captivating look in his eyes, and she didn't know what he was thinking.

I don't know if he heard what she said.
