Just as they finished their meal, Liu Ercheng and Liu Sanqian came over. They knew that Grandpa Hua would be removing the plaster cast and putting on the splint for Liu Mingfeng today, so they came over to see if there was anything they could help with.
Grandpa Hua looked through the medicines on the table and found they were all fine, so he started to boil the ointment he would need later. While boiling the ointment, he asked someone to prepare a few plaster casts so that he could use them to bind Liu Mingfeng's legs and hands after the cast was removed.
Upon hearing Grandpa Hua's instructions, Feng Minghao and his brother, along with Liu Xiaobao and Tan Jing, began preparing the cast. Fortunately, Liu Mingfeng had woodworking tools, and the cast was quickly ready, along with the ointment. It was time to remove Liu Mingfeng's cast.
With the help of several young people, Grandpa Hua removed Liu Mingfeng's cast, applied ointment, and then helped him onto the deck. Finally, they slinged Liu Mingfeng's arm around his neck, leaving Grandpa Hua drenched in sweat. After being helped to sit down, Grandpa Hua instructed someone to prepare medicine for Liu Mingfeng.
"Take that packet of medicine off the table and boil it down to one bowl of water. Let it cool slightly before giving it to Mingfeng. I'll come back every three days to change his dressing. That's about it. Take me home now. Oh, by the way, girl, don't worry about the scar on your head. I'll prepare some scar-reducing medicine for you so it won't leave a scar."
After giving these instructions, Old Master Hua was truly exhausted, muttering to himself, "I'm getting old, really old." He was then carried back to the cowshed by the Feng brothers, with Wei Songbai naturally following along. However, before returning to the cowshed, he repeatedly warned Wu Qiaoqiao to be careful and avoid further injury, as her pregnancy was quite advanced and another injury could be very dangerous.
After Grandpa Hua and Wei Songbai left, Tan Jing and his son, along with Liu Ercheng and the others, all went back to their own homes to sleep, since they had to work the next day. As for Liu Mingfeng, after Zhao Xiuxiang brought in the medicine he had prepared, he was urged to go back to sleep, since the medicine bowl could be washed the next day. Liu Xiaobao also asked Liu Mingfeng if he needed to use the restroom, and after confirming that he didn't, he also went back to Zhao Xiuxiang's house to sleep.
After they left, Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao put the bowl of medicine into their spatial storage. His hand was already healed and he didn't need to take medicine. Besides, why would someone who was perfectly healthy take Chinese medicine? After putting the medicine in their storage, the two of them lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed), but they didn't plan to sleep.
During dinner that evening, Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao noticed the subtle actions Feng Minghao and Lin Yuwei were taking. Knowing they were likely going out to talk about something that night, the two decided to go and observe.
It just so happens that today, because of Liu Mingfeng's situation, Tiedan and Daya obediently went to sleep in Zhao Xiuxiang's room tonight. That's good, because they don't have to worry that when the two of them go to watch other people's activities, the two children will wake up and no one will know. If they start crying and making a fuss, won't they be discovered?
The two lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) staring at each other, waiting for Lin Yuwei's movements. But slowly, Wu Qiaoqiao's eyes grew increasingly heavy, and eventually, she closed them to sleep. Before falling asleep, however, she insisted that Liu Mingfeng wake her up if there was any noise from Lin Yuwei's side, no matter what; she wanted to check. Seeing Wu Qiaoqiao's determined expression, refusing to close her eyes until he agreed, Liu Mingfeng shook his head and said...
"If you're really sleepy, just go to sleep. I'll go watch it tonight and tell you about it the next day, okay?"
"What you say is not as interesting as seeing it for yourself. You have to wake me up, okay? If you don't wake me up and I miss it, you'll be in trouble."
After Wu Qiaoqiao finished speaking intermittently, she fell completely asleep. After Wu Qiaoqiao fell asleep, Liu Mingfeng covered her well with a blanket, then moved his hands and feet, which had been removed from their casts. Although they were still in splints, they were already quite convenient. After moving his hands and feet, he used his spiritual power to scan outside and found that Feng Minghao was already waiting at the courtyard gate. It seemed that he was waiting for Lin Yuwei to go out.
While Liu Mingfeng waited, Lin Yuwei was also waiting for Zhao Xiuxiang to fall asleep. This morning, after seeing Feng Minghao's marksmanship at the gate of the courtyard, she knew that Feng Minghao might be her unrequited lover from her past life. During dinner that night, the two of them used the secret code from their past life to say that they would go out to meet after everyone fell asleep. Now she was just waiting for Zhao Xiuxiang to fall asleep before she went out.
Lin Yuwei sat in the main room, listening to Zhao Xiuxiang's slow, even breathing from the other room. Occasionally, she could hear Tiedan and Daya talking in their sleep. When she heard Tiedan say, "The meat is delicious, I want to eat more," she couldn't help but smile. She liked these two sensible children very much. Occasionally, when Cai Shufen wasn't looking, she would give the two children some food. Sometimes she would feel sorry for them, but looking at Liu Mingfeng and his wife now, these two children would not have to suffer in the future.
After confirming that Zhao Xiuxiang was completely asleep, Lin Yuwei got up, opened the door to the main room, and went out. After leaving the main room, she didn't plan to open the courtyard gate, since the two houses shared a courtyard. If she opened the courtyard gate, she was afraid of waking Liu Mingfeng. After all, Liu Mingfeng was a soldier, and his vigilance would definitely be high. So, Lin Yuwei took a running start and climbed over the courtyard wall.
Liu Mingfeng had been using his mental energy to keep an eye on the outside world. Seeing Lin Yuwei's cautious demeanor, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"Not bad, she's quite alert, and judging by her skills, she's probably not someone to be underestimated."
Thinking of this, Liu Mingfeng gently nudged the sleeping Wu Qiaoqiao. After being nudged a couple of times, Wu Qiaoqiao woke up, opened her sleepy eyes, and asked Liu Mingfeng.
"What? Is something going on?"
"Yes, she's already gone out, and Minghao is waiting outside. Can you get up? If not, I'll tell you tomorrow."
"No, help me up, I want to see it myself."
When Wu Qiaoqiao heard that Lin Yuwei had already gone out and that Feng Minghao was already waiting outside, she immediately perked up. She reached out to Liu Mingfeng to help her up, as she wanted to go out and see what was going on. She had been feeling quite stifled in the hospital for some time.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Liu Mingfeng slowly helped her up and squatted down to put her shoes on. After all, she was so pregnant that it was difficult for her to put on her own shoes. After putting on her shoes, Liu Mingfeng helped Wu Qiaoqiao walk outside. Once they were out of the house and courtyard, the two of them headed in the direction where Liu Minghao and Lin Yuwei had left. When they were out of the house and courtyard, Liu Mingfeng used his mental power to cover the door latch, so that it would open without making a sound.
