Chapter 129 So absurd?
Jiang Nuanzhi secretly admired him; these scholars were truly dignified.
Anyway, she couldn't do what Xie Liangchen did.
She didn't really intend to leave, so she quickly climbed onto the heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed).
He looked at Chun Tao with a smile: "Do you want to hit me too?"
Chun Tao's chin was still immobile, but her head was shaking like a rattle drum.
Are you kidding me? With Zhao Yuniang as a cautionary tale, would she be stupid enough to provoke her again? Is she asking for trouble?
Jiang Nuanzhi then smiled and put her chin back on.
Then, we gave her a full-body checkup.
However, upon closer inspection, she couldn't help but frown: "Why did it take so long? Her lumbar vertebrae were misaligned back then, so naturally she couldn't stand up. The misaligned lumbar vertebrae compressed the nerves, not only restricting lower body movement but also causing the patient excruciating pain. Now, if she wants to recover, she'll likely suffer a lot."
"Oh? She also broke two ribs, but luckily they're in good positions and healing fairly well. They don't need to be reset."
After the inspection, Jiang Nuanzhi couldn't help but give Chun Tao a thumbs up: "You're really good at enduring things."
Chun Tao was immediately annoyed. How could she tolerate this? It was clearly their fault for not finding a doctor for her! That damned Afu even said she'd be fine after resting for a couple of days!
Seeing Jiang Nuanzhi was like looking at a living bodhisattva who saves people from suffering. Her eyes were full of expectation, and she tightly grabbed Jiang Nuanzhi's clothes: "Please, save me."
Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at Xie Liangchen, only to see him looking dazed, his brows furrowed deeply, seemingly lost in thought.
The book says that the protagonist is loyal and righteous, and the servants who accompanied him when he was still a nobody were later entrusted with important responsibilities and all achieved good futures. But now it seems that this is not entirely true.
As for this Ah Fu, when I was reading the book I thought he was a silly and lovable character, but now I think it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him an annoying person.
Jiang Nuanzhi simply chopped Chun Tao unconscious with a single chop.
The next second, the person was lifted up, and with a clever twist, a snap was heard, and the lumbar spine was put back into place.
At the same time, Chun Tao screamed, clearly awakened by the pain. Large beads of sweat instantly rolled down her forehead.
"Jiang Pangya! It hurts so much! Are you taking this opportunity to get revenge? Waaaaah!"
Jiang Nuanzhi remained noncommittal, only patting her shoulder: "Try moving your leg?"
Chun Tao tried to move, and then her eyes were filled with shock: "I...I can move my legs! I don't even hurt as much anymore! Jiang Pangya, you...you really know medicine?"
The young master and the others had mentioned that Jiang Pangya knew medicine, but it wasn't something to be proud of, so they rarely brought it up. Even when they did, Chun Tao didn't believe it at all. But now the facts were right in front of her, and Chun Tao's mouth was agape enough to swallow an egg.
Jiang Nuanzhi: "Your injury wasn't serious to begin with, but the nerves in your lower body have been compressed for a long time, so you need to take good care of yourself. You can't do any strenuous exercise in the early stages. You need to take medicine for a few days and then see how your recovery goes."
As she spoke, she looked at Xie Liangchen: "Where are the paper and pen?"
Xie Liangchen was staring blankly at the time when Jiang Nuanzhi suddenly called his name, and he subconsciously pointed to the desk next to him.
Jiang Nuanzhi got up and walked to the desk, picked up paper and pen, and quickly wrote down two prescriptions for Xie Liangchen.
"Go to my house and find Young Master Lü. He will get the medicine for you according to the prescription."
Xie Liangchen took the paper blankly, glanced at the handwriting on it subconsciously, and looked at it with a strange expression: "You can actually write?"
Surprisingly, this character is written quite well!
Perhaps due to his haste, the handwriting was somewhat messy, yet it possessed a unique and inimitable freedom. The vigorous strength seemed to emanate from through the paper.
Without years of dedicated practice, it would be impossible to achieve this level of skill.
Upon closer inspection, her handwriting seemed quite strange. It was incomplete and disjointed; although I could recognize it, many of her characters were written incorrectly.
Even if it were bizarre, it wouldn't be something a lowly maid could write.
If I remember correctly, Jiang Pangya used to be in charge of cleaning and other rough work at their house.
How did he learn to write? And how does he also possess remarkable medical skills?
For a moment, he looked at the woman in front of him with a strange expression.
Now, she was no longer as bulky and obese as before. Her features gradually became more defined, and her long, narrow eyes held a natural nonchalance. As she focused intently on heating silver needles with a candle, her aura was completely different from before.
If Xie Liangchen hadn't been able to see her every few days, he probably would have thought that this person had absolutely no relation to the Jiang Pangya he remembered.
"How novel is that? You're the only one who can write? Others can't? I also know medicine. Do you want to know where I learned it?" Jiang Nuanzhi's hands and mouth were never idle.
Upon hearing this, Xie Liangchen nodded subconsciously: "Where did you learn that?"
Jiang Nuanzhi smiled and said, "Hehe, I won't tell you."
While they were talking, Jiang Nuanzhi had already wiped the roasted silver needles clean with the strong liquor in the small porcelain bottle she had brought before she began to apply the acupuncture to Chun Tao.
Seeing Xie Liangchen still looking dazed, Jiang Nuanzhi frowned: "Come on, help me undo her clothes."
"How can this be!" Xie Liangchen's face flushed red instantly. "How could you say such a ridiculous thing? This is unreasonable! I will not do it!"
Jiang Nuanzhi rolled her eyes: "You know it's unreasonable? This young lady is about to take off her clothes, and you're still standing here waiting for me to ask you to leave?"
Xie Liangchen was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and ran out of the house almost as if he were fleeing in panic.
I was in such a panic when I went out that I tripped over the threshold and stumbled out. Luckily, I managed to steady myself, or I would have been seriously injured.
Seeing his disheveled appearance, Jiang Nuanzhi shook her head inwardly, then said to Ping'er beside her, "Ping'er, close the door and keep watch outside. Don't let anyone in."
After Ping'er left, Jiang Nuanzhi focused her mind and calmly helped Chun Tao with acupuncture. Chun Tao's lower body had been compressed for a long time and needed blood circulation. Acupuncture would help reduce her pain and help her recover faster.
Outside the door, Xie Liangchen took a while to calm down before his face became flushed. He took a deep breath and gave the prescription Jiang Nuanzhi had given him to Afu, who was chopping wood outside.
"Go to his house and bring back the medicinal herbs."
Ah Fu was sweating profusely from chopping firewood when he heard he needed to get medicine. He wiped his brow and immediately ran out the door. Running errands was better than chopping wood.
After giving the instructions, Xie Liangchen returned and stood there staring at Li Junping.
While Xie Liangchen was still immersed in the awkwardness of the moment, he saw Li Junping, who was standing with his back to the door, say coolly, "You seem to have a deep prejudice against me."
Li Junping has been eating better these days and has grown taller rapidly, but he is still the youngest and only reaches Xie Liangchen's shoulder now. At this moment, he tilted his head slightly to look at Li Junping, his eyes calm and still, as if stating something perfectly normal.
Xie Liangchen frowned as he listened, realizing that the child was bothered by what he had said to Jiang Pangya earlier. He simply said, "I was just stating some facts, and I have a clear conscience."
Li Junping continued to look directly into his eyes: "What a fine claim of having a clear conscience, but I want to know, what exactly is the truth?"
When Xie Liangchen was questioned so rudely, even though the other person was just a child, his voice carried a hint of coldness: "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. I believe my judgment is correct."
Li Junping tightened his small hands behind his back slightly, but smiled and asked, "So, what did you see?"
Xie Liangchen: I am the male lead.
Li Junping: I'm the villain.
Watching his wife leave with his son and the gigolo, Li Rong thought: So, what am I?
Old man: Ha, you're paralyzed, huh?
Jiang Nuanzhi: Nonsense! Whoever said he's paralyzed, I'll fight them! He's clearly my best patient. Take good care of yourself, I'm watching you.
Li Rong:
