"It's okay. I just gave you the acupuncture to remove the remaining toxins from your body. It's actually a good thing for you to spit out the toxins now."
Su Qingning also hurried over to check Xiao Yanchu's pulse. Then he took out a few pills and fed them to Xiao Yanchu along with the spiritual spring water.
“Ahem…”
After taking the medicine and Lingquan water, Xiao Yanchu obviously felt that the pain all over his body was relieved a lot, and his body was lighter than it had been a few months ago.
"Old man? Old man?"
Xiao Yanchu looked around the scene in confusion and pressed his temples in disbelief.
"I... am I dreaming?"
"hiss--"
Xiao Yanchu suddenly felt pain in his thigh and unconsciously kicked his brother Xiao Lingqiu who was standing beside him.
"Hey - why did you kick me for no reason? How can a patient like you have such strong power in your legs?!"
Xiao Lingqiu hugged his knees, frowned and cursed angrily.
"Then why did you pinch me just now?!"
Xiao Yanchu had now regained some of his colour, his face smiling as warm as a spring breeze, but a dangerous light suddenly flashed in his pair of beautiful fox eyes.
"Weren't you dreaming just now? I pinched you to tell you that you were not dreaming!"
"And I pinched you lightly, but you kicked me and nearly broke my bones!"
Xiao Lingqiu was so angry that he held his chest, and he was still very angry even though he was not right.
"Oh, thank you so much. I was just trying to help you out of kindness, to teach you a lesson."
Xiao Yanchu smiled even more warmly, and from the looks of it, he really was a good brother who was teaching his younger brother seriously.
"Hmph... I am a magnanimous person, so I don't bother to argue with a sickly person like you!"
Su Qingning, who was standing aside, was almost laughing to death.
Xiao Huaishuo usually talks more except when he is with her. He is very cold and distant with others. I didn't expect that these two brothers are such a pair of funny people!
She couldn't even imagine how much fun it would be for the family to live under the same roof in the future!
She remembered that the original book said that although the eldest daughter of the Xiao family was not very powerful, she was proficient in strategy. She was a beautiful military strategist who could use strategies to kill tens of thousands of enemy troops with just a smile and a chat.
On the surface, he appears amiable, but in reality he is as cunning as a fox and can easily outwit you if you are not careful.
No wonder this guy just woke up, his mind probably isn't even fully clear yet, yet he's already messing with his brother.
She looked at Xiao Yanchu here and gave her a serious look.
Obviously, your brain is much better than your brother Xiao Lingqiu.
As soon as he saw Xiao Huaishuo's protective look, he guessed the relationship between the two and immediately said with a smile:
"Hey... Is this, a thousand-year-old iron tree blooming, and a rotten wood knot bearing fruit?"
"Puff—"
Su Qingning was amused and laughed out loud.
Xiao Huaishuo glanced at Brother 깊놛 and said coldly:
"Would you like me to let Ningning hold a mirror and look at you to see who looks more like a piece of rotten wood between the two of us?"
"Hey! You little brat! Why are you talking about something else?"
Xiao Yanchu looked furious and was about to jump up and hit Xiao Huaishuo, but he was pushed back by the opponent.
Hsiao Huai-shuo introduced it to 놛 earnestly:
"She is my wife, Su Qingning. She was the one who saved you just now."
“Tsk…”
Xiao Yanchu simply couldn't believe that the gentle and considerate man in front of him was his younger brother who had never lost on the battlefield.
He knew how serious his illness was, and when he heard that it was his brother and sister-in-law who saved him, he put away his previous smile and gave Su Qingning a serious meeting gift.
Su Qingning immediately returned the greeting seriously.
Brother Xiao Lingqiu has always been straightforward, and then asked:
"Brother, why are you here? Where is father?"
“I don’t know where my father is.”
Xiao Yanchu frowned, as if recalling a very painful past.
"At that time, the coalition forces of Southern Xinjiang and Northern Li were pressing in and often attacked our troops, making the people on the border of Daqian uneasy. My father and I discussed that the situation where the enemy was in the dark and I was in the light was too passive, so we prepared to take the initiative to attack and annihilate the coalition forces outside the city wall."
"Our plan should have been foolproof, but we were attacked from all sides in Red Leaf Valley. The 10,000 troops my father and I led were all killed. I was shot by several arrows and passed out on the spot."
"Now that I think about it, it seems like our every move was known to the other side long ago. There must be a spy in the army."
Su Qingning nodded in agreement: "Yes, it was Li Zhiyuan. But he has been killed by us."
Xiao Yanchu suddenly realized: "It is indeed you! You have been with us day and night, and I have long noticed that your whereabouts are a bit strange. But my father said that you have been away from your parents since you were young, so it is normal for you to say and do strange things, and asked us to try to be more tolerant of you."
"Humph! Damn it! This is our no-limit-allowance scene!"
Xiao Yanchu was so angry that veins on his forehead throbbed, and he punched the ground. He took a few breaths before continuing:
"When I woke up, I was already in a clean room. The person who saved me said he was a doctor from Chunshengtang. He happened to be in the forest collecting herbs at the time. He saw that I was still alive and brought me back."
"She said my injuries were too severe and difficult to be cured with conventional Chinese medicine, so she gave me the Fushou ointment."
"Now that I think about it, your words are full of loopholes. I was lucky not to be crushed by the horses when I fell in the midst of thousands of soldiers. How could an ordinary doctor like you find it among the corpses of tens of thousands of people?!"
When he said this, he sighed slowly, as if he was very disappointed with someone who had failed to make it.
"It's a pity that I was too seriously injured at the time. Even when I was awake, I was still dazed and didn't see what you were planning."
"Later, I became more and more dependent on the plaster that I took. I felt uncomfortable if I didn't take it. I also found that I always asked me about the Xiao family when I was unconscious after taking the plaster. Then I realized that it was my fault, so I tried to escape."
"After I escaped, I found out that the place where I was placed was not Chunsheng Hall at all, but a villa outside the city. I wanted to go back to the city to look for someone, but unfortunately I got sick again and fell to the ground before I had gone far. I was then robbed by some passing bandits and taken to their lair..."
Su Qingning sighed deeply after hearing this.
According to the original book, the eldest brother waited until Xiao Huaishuo had established his own power before he showed up and joined forces.
So even if we don't save him today, I believe we will have the opportunity to cure his illness in the future.
But now that Big Brother has been robbed by us, it's a good thing for him to suffer less.
Thinking of this, she made a prompt decision and said, "Brother, we have just agreed to stay in this village first."
"You are too seriously injured to move, so you should rest in this village tonight. Please go back and tell grandma and the others that you are safe. Ashuo and I will stay here to accompany you, big brother."
"Grandma is also here? What about mother and your sister-in-law?!"
When he heard the word "grandmother", Xiao Yanchu's eyes instantly turned red and he asked first.
Xiao Lingqiu said immediately: "It couldn't be better. You can just rest here and recuperate! You will see your beloved tomorrow!"
"Xiao Lingqiu! You actually eavesdropped on me?!"
Xiao Yanchu raised his fist and was about to swing it at the bastard brother beside him.
Xiao Lingqiu hurriedly dodged with a laugh: "I... I only heard a few words at the time, and Dad caught me back!"
"Say it again. You were the one who bullied me first. Do you still think you are right? Who was it that took advantage of my unpreparedness and tripped me up, causing me to lose face in front of Xinyue?"
Xiao Yanchu was so angry that his nose and mouth were not the same, and he cursed back not to be outdone:
"Hmph! You little brat, you're taking advantage of me! If I hadn't pushed you, you would have fallen into her arms. With your turtle speed, you probably can't even touch her hand now!"
"Come on! Hurry up and get out of my sight."
Although he looked like he had a splitting headache, his eyes were full of smiles.
The brothers quarreled with each other, but they had a deep relationship. Xiao Lingqiu was worried about them staying in this remote mountain village, so he came back.
"I will stay with you tonight. Didn't Ah Shuo leave marks along the way? Tomorrow the secret guards will naturally bring the grandmothers to find us, so it's okay if I don't go back to report my safety."
"It's not safe for you to stay here alone in this remote place."
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, several people heard an unusual sound of wind coming from a distance.
From the sound, it seemed like several people with great martial arts skills were flying towards this side!
