Chapter 188: Medicine

Cui Yongan felt very apologetic after hearing this.

Mo Xunyan continued.

"You only gave her a few meals and took care of her a few times. Is it worth her to help you so wholeheartedly? Don't bother her anymore."

Cui Yongan blinked.

"Okay, I just saw that she wasn't around, so I asked. There's no need for you to get so angry."

Mo Xunyan's eyes suddenly turned red.

"This girl was so frightened when she saw you half dead."

After saying that, he walked out on his own.

When Cui Yongan was changing the dressing, it was Mo Xunyan who came to help again.

During this period, Mo Xunyan followed the military doctor in the barracks and became very skilled in bandaging and changing dressings.

She pulled open Cui Yongan's white shirt, took off the thin cotton cloth wrapped around his waist and abdomen, turned around and took the cotton cloth that had been smeared with medicine. When she was about to apply the medicine, Cui Yongan pulled the quilt high, his pale face was full of blush, a trace of shyness flashed across his eyes, and he stammered.

"Call the military doctor to help me change the dressing."

Mo Xunyan's eyebrows were indifferent. He put down the cotton cloth in his hand, and then pulled Cui Yongan's quilt off with force.

"The military doctors are busy with important things. They don't have time to change your dressing. Hurry up. I'm busy."

Cui Yongan resigned himself to Mo Xunyan's torture, turned his head to the side and closed his eyes.

The more he felt this, the more he could feel the soft, cool fingertips caressing his abdomen, causing him to shudder slightly.

He shouted through gritted teeth.

"Don't touch me."

Mo Xunyan was stunned and stopped moving his hands.

She looked at Cui Yongan strangely and cursed impatiently.

"Are you ill?"

Cui Yongan was stunned.

“I am indeed ill.”

Mo Xunyan pulled the cotton cloth tighter, causing Cui Yongan to scream in pain.

Mo Xunyan said disdainfully.

"You're still hiding it. With your physique, you should practice more!"

After saying that, he glanced at Cui Yongan, turned around and walked out.

Old Fan, who was still lying on the side unable to move, exclaimed in surprise.

"This girl is quite ruthless."

Cui Yongan was sweating from the pain.

"What girl? She was married before."

"The man is dead?"

Cui Yongan shook his head.

"I don't know. Besides, what does it have to do with me?"

The next day, Chen Shiyi came to see him.

Cui Yongan felt that he owed Chen Shiyi a lot as he watched her getting thinner and thinner.

Chen Shiyi looked at Cui Yongan looking at him like that and couldn't help but asked with a smile.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Cui Yongan sighed.

"Eleven, I have implicated you after all."

Chen Shiyi laughed heartily.

"It's rare for you to say something like this. We are all friends, so let's not talk about it and not get involved."

She sighed.

"I don't know when this snow will stop falling. I guess we'll have to spend the New Year here."

Cui Yongan comforts Chen Shiyi.

"Celebrating the New Year here is also a different experience. When I recover from my injury, I will take you to see the excitement."

"Let's talk about it after you've recovered from your injuries. You're seriously injured this time. You need to take good care of yourself to avoid any further injuries."

The curtain was lifted, cold air rushed in, and Mo Xunyan walked in.

When Cui Yongan saw it, his face suddenly turned red.

Mo Xunyan looked at Chen Shiyi with a warm smile.

"I'll change his dressing."

Chen Shiyi immediately stepped aside.

"OK."

Cui Yongan shouted hurriedly.

"Eleven, help me change it."

Mo Xunyan raised his eyebrows sternly and said unhappily.

"You don't think I changed it well?"

Cui Yongan shook his head repeatedly.

"No, I..."

Mo Xunyan turned and said to Eleven.

"Go get me another piece of clean cotton cloth."

Chen Shiyi nodded and went out.

Mo Xunyan turned around and spoke to Cui Yongan again in a deep voice.

"You should understand things better, Eleven is getting married soon. Don't treat her like a little girl anymore. She has grown up and is not young anymore."

When Cui Yongan heard this, his expression darkened.

When Chen Shiyi came in again, Mo Xunyan had already changed the medicine for Cui Yongan.

She always felt that the atmosphere in the tent was a little weird.

She handed the cotton cloth in her hand to Mo Xunyan, walked to Cui Yongan's bed and sat down.

Cui Yongan asked with a smile.

"Eleven, what kind of person are you going to marry?"

Chen Shiyi laughed when he heard this.

"He is, well, very handsome."

Cui Yongan suddenly became unhappy.

"You are too superficial. Good-looking men are useless."

"He is very powerful and is now the governor of Jiangzhou."

Cui Yongan curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"That's only a fourth-rank official."

Chen Shiyi felt something was wrong when he heard this.

"Brother Cui, what do you mean? He treats me very well. You are not allowed to say that to him. Also, prepare the gift money in the next two years. Your gift cannot be small. I gave you all my old ginseng..."

Cui Yongan responded awkwardly.

"Okay, okay, I know you're thinking of my gift money..."

Mo Xunyan smiled and spoke quickly.

"Eleven, let's go. There are still many things to do over there."

Years later, the outcome of the war gradually became clear, and the Wuqiang Kingdom had already been defeated.

This is excellent news.

Chen Shiyi thought that she would go back to Anzhou after the snow in the northwest became a little lighter.

The Lantern Festival was celebrated at the Lan Mansion.

The imperial court sent military rations to the mansion in cartloads, and life at the mansion became much better. The mutton was roasted till golden brown, and it was fresh and delicious when you took a bite.

Seeing that Chen Shiyi liked it very much, Cui Yongan put his own portion into Chen Shiyi's bowl.

"Go back and tell your fiancé that I never treated you unfairly."

Everyone laughed out loud.

Lan Qinghe took a sip of wine and asked.

"Eleven, where is your fiancé from?"

Chen Shiyi smiled awkwardly.

"He is from Fangling. He used to be a scholar. His last name is Pei."

Lan Qinghe and Cui Yongan were both stunned.

Chen Shiyi asked in confusion.

"What's wrong?"

"Is it the little scholar with a scar on his face? His mother is very beautiful?"

Chen Shiyi nodded in response.

"Yes, Brother Lan, do you know him?"

Lan Qinghe looked a little unnatural, but after a moment, he returned to normal.

"Ping An Town is not that big, so I've certainly heard of it."

Cui Yongan didn't think too much about it. He just wondered why Chen Shiyi always followed Fang Ling's people and why she had such a connection with Fang Ling?

Then, Lan Qinghe said again.

"Eleven, it will be very hard for you to follow him in the future. It might be better for you to follow Wen Zhiheng. You should think carefully about it."

Chen Shiyi felt that Lan Qinghe seemed to have something else in his words.

"Brother Lan, what do you want to say?"

Lan Qinghe turned and smiled again.

"He is young, I am afraid he can't take good care of you."

"He's not young anymore. It's just right for us to be together."

Mrs. Lan tugged at Lan Qinghe's sleeve and handed him a bowl of soup.

Lan Qinghe lowered his head to drink his soup and never talked about this topic again.

A month later, Chen Shiyi was ready to resign.

Unexpectedly, one day, Lan Qinghe called Chen Shiyi over.
