Chapter 265: Tired, Still Tired
Wen Zhenyi walked over to him and squatted down: "How do you feel?"
Biaozi forced an ugly smile: "Besides being tired, I'm still tired."
"We'll change your medicine in a moment, help you onto the carriage, and take you to the infirmary."
"No, you can just take me to the gambling house. I'm afraid I'll get into trouble if I go to the clinic."
"You can't do this without seeing a doctor."
"There's a doctor in the gambling house, so don't worry, and it'll save you some trouble."
Wen Zhen nodded slightly, changed the medicine on his back, and checked the condition of the wound.
The redness and swelling had subsided a little, and he rubbed the wound with alcohol again to disinfect it again.
Biaozi's veins on his neck bulged with pain, but he gritted his teeth and endured it.
Wen Zhenyi reapplied medicine to him and re-bandaged him.
Axiang rode his horse to the nearby area to find some clean straw, and spread it on the carriage so that he would feel more comfortable lying on it.
They packed up their things, put out the fire, cleaned up the traces left here, and then drove the carriage back on the road.
Because they were afraid that Biaozi would feel uncomfortable on the road, they deliberately slowed down the speed of the carriage and tried to make it run as smoothly as possible.
When they arrived at the town, the city gates had already started to close. Fortunately, Wen Zhenyi was popular, and the soldiers would come to her shop to eat during their breaks.
Only then were they allowed into the city gate, otherwise they would have to stay at the town gate for another night.
Ah Xiang drove a horse-drawn carriage to the door of the gambling house, with a string of horses following behind.
The people in the gambling house felt that she looked familiar when they saw her, and when they saw the mark on the carriage, they knew it was their carriage.
Wen Zhenyi waited until the carriage stopped, then lifted the curtain and shouted to the dazed people, "Someone come and help."
These people all knew Wen Zhenyi, and they were shocked when they saw her: "Miss Wen."
"Let's talk later if you have anything to say. Please help carry Uncle Biaozi to his room."
Only then did everyone see Biaozi lying in the carriage without a shirt on: "Big Boss."
"Miss Wen, what is going on?"
"We'll talk about this later. Send him back first and call your doctor."
Everyone worked together to carry Biaozi to his room.
The doctor from the gambling house also hurried over, carrying a medicine box on his back.
Wen Zhenyi was stunned when she saw this overly young doctor. He should be about the same size as her.
The boy had a handsome appearance and was a little taller than her. When he saw the bandages on Biaozi's body, he asked someone to light an oil lamp and unwrapped the bandages without saying a word.
But when he saw the situation behind him, he was stunned again: "Who bandaged it?"
A group of people looked at each other, and finally looked at Wen Zhenyi and A Xiang.
The boy looked at Wen Zhenyi: "Did you do this?"
Wen Zhen nodded: "The wound is too big, it can only be sutured, otherwise the bleeding will not stop at all."
The young man took the oil lamp and looked carefully at the sutured wound on Biaozi's back. He realized that what she said was true. If it was not sutured, the wound would never heal.
If it were him, he might only be able to stop the bleeding by burning the wound, but is it really okay to suture it this way?
Wen Zhenyi walked over to the boy and pointed to the stitches: "When the wound is almost healed, pull out the stitches and disinfect it with white wine."
She was about to turn and leave when she finished speaking: "Someone of you can give me a ride. I don't have any place to park the carriage."
"Wait." The boy walked up to her and blocked her way.
Wen Zhenyi looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Can you teach me how to sew this?"
"Can you sew?"
The young man was slightly stunned, then shook his head: "No."
"Then come back to me when you can thread a needle." Wen Zhenyi said and left with Axiang.
A man named Dazhuang escorted them out of the gambling house and asked, "Miss Wen, what are these horses?"
"You guys can keep these horses here first. I don't have room to keep them there right now. We'll talk about it after your boss gets better."
"Okay." Da Zhuang didn't ask what happened on the way, but just sent them to the door of the store.
The shop had already closed, and Zhu Tao and the others were awakened by a knock on the door.
The people from the Ji family and Zhu Tao hurriedly put on their coats and walked to the backyard.
Uncle Ji looked at the backyard door warily and asked, "Who is it?"
"Uncle Ji is me."
"Yi Yi." Zhu Tao immediately recognized her voice.
Uncle Ji also hurriedly opened the door to the backyard and saw three people standing at the door.
Zhu Tao looked at the two of them and asked, "Why are you back at this time?"
"I was delayed on the way and came back late." Wen Zhenyi said and looked at Uncle Ji: "Uncle Ji, please help me move the things off the carriage."
"Okay, okay."
Ji Hongguang also hurried to help move things.
Aunt Ji looked at the two of them and said, "Miss, you haven't eaten yet, right? I'll go make you some noodles."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
"No trouble, no trouble."
Ji Shuangshuang said, "I'll go boil some hot water for you."
Zhu Tao saw that they both looked exhausted and asked, "Did something happen?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired from rushing back."
"Are you really okay?"
"Look, we're back safely, what could possibly happen? How's business at the store lately?"
"It's good, but Master Shen didn't come when you were not here."
Wen Zhen nodded: "Grandpa, how are they doing recently?"
"It's pretty good. I killed a pig and sold it yesterday. I just arrived and the meat was sold out in just a short while."
"I have to go back and check tomorrow."
"You go ahead. Uncle Ji's family and Brother Lin are helping out in the store now, so I can handle it."
Wen Zhenyi thought about handing over the shop to Zhu Tao and going back to the village to build a house and spend time with his family.
Uncle Ji moved all the things to Wen Zhenyi's room.
Wen Zhenyi and Dazhuang thanked him and said they would go see Biaozi another day.
After a busy day, we didn't talk much and let them all go to rest.
Wen Zhenyi soaked in the bathtub and relaxed himself completely.
Now, in addition to the rewards and the silver she earned from this banquet, she also had the silver she robbed from these killers, which amounted to several thousand taels.
She also planned to give half of the silver she got from the robbery to Biaozi. After all, he had contributed half to it, and she couldn't embezzle it all.
She had to think about how to use the remaining silver to realize her true value.
She has to save money for building the house and making furniture, she has to save money for the operation of the pig farm, and she also has to save money for the processing workshop.
If she wants to raise dairy cows in the future, she will need pasture or grow cow grass, which requires purchasing land, otherwise there will be no place for her to raise them.
If you want to raise dairy cows, you need to do the preliminary work first, such as planting pasture grass or cow grass, otherwise what will the cows eat when they come?
