Chapter 188 Your patient is just a four-year-old child
The little girl sat up straight, but she seemed not to have woken up yet. She cried loudly, "It hurts... It hurts so much..."
Qingyun was in the tree outside. He woke up suddenly when he heard the sound and hurried in. "What's wrong? Bai Yu'an, what did you do?"
"Li Suining!" Bai Yu'an ignored Qingyun and shook Li Suining's small body vigorously. "Wake up, wake up."
Qingyun walked over to take a look.
Li Suining was finally woken up. She stared at Bai Yu'an for a long time before finally coming to her senses. She hugged Bai Yu'an's neck and said, "Second brother, it hurts. Suining's hand hurts."
This child obviously hasn't fully recovered his sanity yet, so he dares to be so intimate with Bai Yu'an.
Bai Yu'an felt a little uncomfortable and ordered Qingyun in a cold voice, "What are you standing there for? Take her away. How can I examine her like this?"
"Oh." Qingyun carefully pulled Li Suining's arms away, held her in his arms, and coaxed her softly, "Suining, be good, Suining, don't cry, don't be afraid, second brother is here, and second brother will heal you soon."
He subconsciously worried, "Her body is so hot."
"Probably bitten by a poisonous insect." Bai Yu'an picked up the candlestick and carefully shone it on Li Suining's little hand. Sure enough, there was a particularly obvious bite mark on the palm of her hand.
At this time, the little girl was completely awake and looked at her second brother pitifully.
"How is it?" Qingyun asked anxiously.
Bai Yu'an looked up at Li Suining and asked, "When were you bitten?"
"Just...just..." Little Dumpling couldn't quite articulate, "Just tonight."
Bai Yu'an frowned, "During the celebration banquet? Or when we went to the wounded soldiers' camp?"
The little girl shook her head gently, "After my second brother... fell asleep."
"You!" Bai Yu'an was furious. "Did I warn you not to go out by yourself? Why didn't you listen?"
Li Suining pursed his lips, but didn't know how to answer.
"Okay, Second Young Master, it's no use talking to her now. You should think of a solution quickly." Qingyun couldn't help but speak.
Bai Yu'an ignored his words and continued to question Li Suining, "Why didn't you tell me right away when you were bitten?"
The poisonous insect that bit Li Suining was called a hornet. Its venom is extremely strong and will cause the wound of the bitten person to become red and swollen and the whole body to become hot. However, if the wound is cleaned and medicine is applied within an incense stick of time after being bitten, the venom will be reduced by more than half.
So, if Li Suining had told him the first time, it wouldn't have been so painful and she wouldn't have had a fever.
"I'm sorry." Little Dumpling knew she had done something wrong again. She lowered her head and said aggrievedly, "Second brother is asleep. I didn't want to wake him up. I thought..."
She looked at Bai Yu'an's ugly face and couldn't help but pouting. The next moment, she burst into tears again.
"I thought I would be fine if I just endured it. When I was at the Li family, I was bitten by various insects, but as long as I endured it, I would be fine."
She cried very loudly and felt very aggrieved.
"My second brother is very tired from taking care of the wounded soldiers. I want him to have a good rest."
Bai Yu'an widened his eyes slightly in surprise.
"Wuwuwu..." The little girl was still crying, even her body was shaking, "I don't want to die, second brother, will I die?"
Bai Yu'an was speechless again, "I can't die."
Having said that, he turned around and went to look for medicine.
The little girl was sobbing and still looked extremely pitiful, with tears as big as beans hanging on her cheeks, which made Qingyun feel very distressed.
"Don't be afraid, Miss Seven. Your second brother said you won't die. It's okay. Don't be afraid."
Soon, Bai Yu'an brought back a delicate little iron box, looked into Li Suining's eyes, and said seriously, "Open your palm."
Li Suining tried hard, but only managed to open a very small arc. She immediately burst into tears from the pain, "It hurts, it hurts so much!"
"Alas!" Bai Yu'an couldn't help but sigh, "It must be opened quickly, otherwise there will be no way to apply the medicine."
Qingyun couldn't help but complain, "Can't you be a little gentler? You're a military doctor, and your patient is just a four-year-old child..."
He couldn't help but snort, "If this child wasn't your sister, but someone else's, would you be so fierce? So impatient?"
"..." Bai Yu'an's expression changed, and he denied it coldly, "She is not my sister."
Qingyun curled his lips in dissatisfaction and went to coax Li Suining, "Little Suining, be good. Let's close our eyes and, with a little effort, open our hands wide. Let's show our second brother how brave we are, okay?"
Little Tuanzi looked at Brother Qingyun, then at his second brother, and obviously struggled for a while, but finally nodded.
She slowly closed her big eyes, and tears rolled down her eyes again. She looked so pitiful.
Then she raised her red and swollen little hand, exerted force suddenly, and really opened it a lot.
Bai Yu'an couldn't help but glance at the girl. Seeing that she had opened her eyes and looked like she was about to cry again, he quickly said, "Okay, very good, that's it. You can't take it back."
He quickly opened the bottle, scooped out the ointment inside, and carefully applied it to the palm of the little ball's hand.
The little dumpling trembled in pain.
"I'll be gentler and bear with it." Bai Yu'an said without raising his head, his voice noticeably softer.
The little girl gritted her teeth and stared at her second brother intently.
Bai Yu'an quickly applied the ointment to her, blew on it gently, and told her in a gentle voice, "Okay, the fever will go away tomorrow morning, but the swelling on your hand won't go away for a while, and it will still hurt for a few days."
After saying that, he couldn't help but add, "I'll teach you a lesson. Let's see if you dare to run around again."
"I'm sorry." Little Dumpling shyly hid in Qingyun's arms, but she really wasn't running around, she just... had to go out.
"It's okay, it's okay." Qingyun was like an old mother, reluctant to put Li Suining down, so she simply held her and sat beside her, "Little Suining, it's not dawn yet, you should sleep a little longer."
"Brother Qingyun," Little Tuanzi felt much better now, "Put me down, you need to rest too."
"Brother, you're fine." Qingyun was a little touched. He smiled and shook his head, and couldn't help but praise, "Little Suining is such a sensible and good child."
Not far away, Bai Yu'an chuckled twice.
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Qingyun now felt more and more annoyed with Bai Yu'an.
Bai Yu'an looked at the little girl and said coldly, "A sensible child wouldn't go out and run around in the middle of the night."
He knew clearly that even if Li Suining was just near this tent, no hornets would come over. The child had obviously run far away.
He couldn't help but ask coldly, "Li Suining, what on earth did you go out for? Did you want to find Dad? Or did you want to find the fourth brother?"
