【127】The Longest Companionship
The big snake was finally subdued and collapsed to the ground powerlessly.
"Finally caught it!" Li Muzi was so tired that he sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.
Su Xueer looked at the captured Taipan snake, her heart filled with joy: "Now Sanlang's leg can be saved."
After saying this, she fainted.
Li Muzi was quick to catch Su Xueer's swaying body as it slid down.
Qianyu then discovered that Su Xueer was injured on the back, and the blood had dyed her entire back of the clothes red.
"Zhao Yun's mother?" Qianyu exclaimed.
Su Xueer forced herself to lift her heavy eyelids and explained weakly: "I've told you so many times, my name is Su Xueer, not Zhao Yunniang."
When Su Xueer opened her eyes again, the first person she saw was her master, Shopkeeper Xue.
"Master?"
He took a look at the surroundings. This was his home, Chi Rui and her room.
Why is she back? Did she get the magic grass?
Just as she was about to get up, she felt a sharp pain in her back.
"Don't move, Xue'er." Shopkeeper Xue helped her lie down again, "Lie down and rest well, otherwise the wound will tear again."
"Master, Sanlang's leg can be saved. There is a big snake and Lingxu grass." Su Xueer said anxiously.
Shopkeeper Xue nodded and said, "Don't worry, we've got the Lingxu grass and the Taipan snake, so your husband's leg can be healed. You should have a good rest, and leave the treatment of Sanlang's legs to me and Doctor Li."
"Thank you, Master." Su Xueer felt like crying at this moment.
How could she be so lucky to meet such a good master like Manager Xue, who not only taught her medicine and how to identify herbs, but also took care of her like his own father.
Su Xueer closed her eyes and continued to rest. The injury on her back didn't seem to hurt as much anymore.
As long as Saburo can stand up again, this minor injury is worth it.
Su Xueer had a fever due to inflammation of the wound and slept in a daze for more than ten days before she recovered.
Chi Rui also began an intensive treatment and rehabilitation process.
In the early morning, the sun was just beginning to shine into the house.
Su Xueer gently woke Chi Rui up.
"Sanlang, get up and do rehabilitation."
She would gently prepare water for Chi Rui to wash, then help him change into comfortable clothes and prepare to start a new day of rehabilitation.
Chi Rui sat on the edge of the bed, trying to move his legs that had not moved for a long time, while Su Xueer watched nervously from the side, her eyes full of expectation and concern.
When Chi Rui began to try to stand, Su Xueer would quickly stand beside him, with her hands outstretched, ready to support him if he staggered.
Chi Rui's legs were still very weak, and every time he exerted force, sweat would break out on his forehead, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.
"Sanlang, take your time, don't rush." Su Xueer encouraged softly and wiped the sweat from Chi Rui's forehead with a handkerchief.
During the rehabilitation process, Chi Rui would sometimes frown because of the pain, and Su Xueer would gently massage his leg muscles to relieve his discomfort.
Her technique was gentle and skillful, and every movement was full of care.
At noon, the sun shines warmly into the room, and Su Xueer will prepare nutritious meals for Chi Rui.
She carefully cut the food into small pieces and fed it to Chi Rui's mouth, watching him eat it bite by bite, with a satisfied smile on her face.
In the afternoon, they would sit together in the yard to bask in the sun.
Su Xueer would tell Chi Rui about her experiences when she was not with him. Chi Rui listened quietly, occasionally holding Su Xueer's hand and giving her a silent response.
In the evening, Su Xueer would prepare hot water for Chi Rui to soak his feet to help him relax his leg muscles. Chi Rui was moved by Su Xueer's busy figure.
