When she first returned, Ning Huan was busy with the four little ones and didn't pay attention to her injuries.
It wasn't until her little one accidentally touched her arm that she realized how much it hurt.
Upon closer inspection, everyone saw that the flesh on Ning Huan's arm was rolled up, which was quite frightening and terrifying.
Blood was flowing freely, already soaking Ning Huan's clothes. Her hands were trembling uncontrollably.
The four little ones were terrified and immediately panicked: "Mommy, your injury is so serious!"
"Mother, are you in pain? I'll go get you some medicine."
Zhou Jing'an frowned. He hadn't expected Ning Huan to be injured, and with such a deep wound at that: "What happened?"
Ning Huan waved her hand: "When I found the little ones, they were surrounded by wolves. I went to help them and got bitten."
After she repeatedly assured them that she would apply the medicine immediately, the four little ones and Zhou Jing'an finally let Ning Huan leave.
However, as soon as she stepped out the door, Ning Huan's vision went black and she almost fainted.
She forced herself to walk back to the house, then used spiritual spring water from her consciousness space to wash her wounds and sprinkled some anesthetic powder on them. She then took out some hemostatic ointment and white jade ointment.
Ning Huan's wound was bleeding profusely. The hemostatic ointment was very effective at stopping the bleeding, and the bleeding stopped shortly after she applied it.
Then she used surgical sutures to stitch up her wound, but Ning Huan had never treated her wounds before, so it took her a long time to manage to stitch it up.
After stitching up the wound, Ning Huan applied the white jade ointment she had just taken out.
This white jade ointment can make scars on the skin disappear and make the skin delicate, smooth and shiny. She originally made this white jade ointment because cosmetics were too expensive, so she made her own cosmeceuticals.
I never imagined that I would use it to remove scars one day.
Although anesthetic powder was applied, the wound still throbbed with pain. Ning Huan couldn't sleep well that night; pressing on the wound would wake her up in pain, and she tossed and turned until dawn.
As dawn broke, Ning Huan drifted off to sleep. She was awakened by a commotion in the courtyard.
"Hurry, hurry, move in quickly!"
"Move them all in and put them in the yard. Be careful, they're all precious things here!"
"Hey, you over there! I told you to be careful when you move things! If I break any of these things, you won't be able to afford to pay for them!"
Ning Huan went outside and saw Chen Liu directing his servants to carry boxes of things into the courtyard, while Si Mo stood by watching.
Ning Huan asked curiously, "What's in those boxes you're carrying? Why are they here?"
Before Si Mo could speak, Pang Shi said from the side:
"These boxes are filled with gifts as a token of our gratitude from Young Master Si Mo. He sent Manager Chen back to town early this morning to bring these things to us. No matter what my son-in-law and I said, we couldn't stop him."
"Then he told us how you saved him in the mountains last night, and said that you were his savior, and that no matter how much he gave you, it could not express his gratitude to you..."
Pang spoke softer and softer, as he was too embarrassed to continue.
Ning Huan smiled awkwardly; Pang Shi's tone did indeed sound like it came from Si Mo, that flamboyant man.
Si Mo gently fanned himself, changed back into the red clothes Chen Liuxin had brought him, and bowed to Ning Huan with his robes fluttering, saying, "Madam Ning Huan, you're awake? These are all gifts I'm giving you to express my gratitude for saving your life yesterday."
Last night, Si Mo and Chen Liu thought it over and over again. If Ning Huan hadn't arrived in time, they would have definitely died in the wolf's jaws that night.
So Si Mo asked Chen Liu to go back to town early in the morning to move some valuable gifts to Ning Huan.
Normally, Chen Liu would have stopped Si Mo from having such thoughts, but he failed to protect his master, leaving Si Mo to face danger alone.
In the end, Ning Huan saved them, and even suffered such serious injuries in the fight with the wolves.
So this time he didn't say anything, and got up early at dawn to return to town.
Upon hearing that Si Mo was injured, Si Yan hurriedly followed Chen Liu from town to see his brother. However, after learning that Ning Huan was also injured, he quickly came over and asked with concern, "Madam Ning, how serious is your wound?"
Ning Huan shook her head: "The medicine has already been applied, so it should be better soon."
Si Yan frowned deeply and said, "How can that be? Your arm is injured. If Madam Ning Huan were to treat someone else..."
He had only spoken halfway when he realized that Ning Huan's medical skills were a secret between the two of them and could not be told to others, so he swallowed his words.
“Madam Ninghuan is injured on her arm. If she is not treated properly, the wound may spread to her hand. How will she continue to gather herbs then? Because you are a supplier of medicines to our Renjitang, I must remind you to be extra careful.”
Ning Huan nodded and replied, "Manager Si, please rest assured, there should be no major problems."
The gifts that Si Mo brought almost filled Ning Huan's courtyard. Although they were gifts to thank Ning Huan, Pang felt very embarrassed and invited the two brothers, Si Mo and Si Yan, and Chen Liu to stay for lunch before leaving.
Because the four little ones were frightened and felt very wronged last night, Ning Huan decided to make them some delicious food today.
She noticed that among the things Si Mo had sent were several fresh whole chickens from Zuiyanlou. She decided to use the chicken to cook a few dishes that day.
Last time, she heard from Xiao Sanbao that the four little ones had been craving chicken wings and chicken feet lately. So this time, she decided to make them garlic chicken wings and braised chicken feet, both simple and easy dishes.
Ning Huan first cut off the chicken wings from several chickens, then washed the chicken wings with water and prepared a bowl of marinade for marinating the chicken wings.
Just as she was chopping garlic, Pang brought over the chicken feet whose nails she had just removed. Because Ning Huan's arm was injured, Pang also came to help with the cooking today.
She smiled and said, "I don't have Huan'er's skills, but I can still cook a couple of stir-fries. I'll cook two dishes for our distinguished guests and the four little ones in a bit."
Ning Huan smiled and replied, "I'm so lucky to be able to eat my mother's cooking today."
While marinating the chicken wings, Ning Huan took out the wild boar meat she had hunted last time. Since she also wanted to make steamed pork ribs with millet, she picked up a knife and was about to chop into the wild boar meat.
Just then, Ning Liang walked into the kitchen to see if there was anything he could help with. Seeing this, he quickly called out, "Sis, wait a minute!"
Ning Huan looked at him suspiciously and asked, "What are you doing here? You can't even cook, so don't come here and cause me trouble."
