Chapter 49: Pulling Out the Thorn
That’s right, the only people who knew that Bai Yaoyao would transform, besides Madam Hu, were Li Mingyan and his servant, and Zhang Jiwei.
After all, Bai Yaoyao would get sick, sometimes in human form, sometimes in fox form, and she always needed a doctor.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak..." Bai Yaoyao cried pitifully, signaling Zhang Jiwei to save her quickly, she was in so much pain.
"You know it hurts, but you still dare to sneak out alone? Let's see if you can learn your lesson!" Aunt Hu wiped her tears in pain and blamed Bai Yaoyao.
How could the little princess they hold in their hands have ever suffered such a hardship?
"I'll give you half a cup of tea to pull out all the thorns on Yaoyao's body. Don't hurt her!" Li Mingyan said with a serious face.
"Half a cup of tea? Pull it all out? And it can't hurt?" Zhang Jiwei shouted immediately, "You might as well just destroy my clinic! I can't do it!"
Li Mingyan snorted coldly and ordered Qingye again, "Go! Get the Qianjin Fang from his study! Burn it!"
"No, no, no! Can't I pull it out by myself?" Zhang Jiwei was scared again when he heard it. There was no other way. Qianjin Fang was his lifeblood, and he had only learned one tenth of the skill so far!
Li Mingyan remained unmoved. "Go get it! If you can't finish pulling it out in half a cup of tea, it will burn! If Yaoyao screams in pain once during this time, tear off a piece!"
"Yes!" Qingye went there immediately.
Zhang Jiwei pointed at Li Mingyan and said after a long moment, "You're so cruel!"
Then, she started to pull out the thorns while crying, "My little Princess Yaoyao, my little ancestor, if you can bear it, please bear it! Woohoo, my Qianjin Fang is really a priceless treasure, no amount of money can buy it! If your cousin tears a piece of it, it will be more painful than cutting a piece of your Uncle Zhang's flesh, woohoo..."
So, a magical scene happened next.
Bai Yaoyao, who was originally covered in thorns, not only did not cry out in pain, but was even very calm. During this time, she was even fed a few bites of food by Madam Hu.
On the other hand, Zhang Jiwei, who was pulling out the thorns, cried loudly. He cried for every thorn he pulled out, as if he was the one who was pricked!
Aunt Hu was originally very angry, but in the end she was amused by him.
Even Bai Yaoyao couldn't help but let out a joyful cry, "Squeak, squeak, squeak..."
Zhang Jiwei's medical skills were truly remarkable. Within half a cup of tea, the last thorn on Bai Yaoyao's body had been pulled out. He put away his tools and had Madam Hu carefully apply medicine to the little fox, instructing her, "Don't touch water or wind for seven days. It's best to lie still. Luckily, the thorns were from the hemostatic grass, which has the ability to stop bleeding. Otherwise, little Yaoyao would be covered in blood!"
Li Mingyan stepped forward and carefully picked up Bai Yaoyao. His eyes changed from being indifferent to being gentle and doting. "Yaoyao, your cousin will take you home."
Bai Yaoyao was already exhausted. Now that all the thorns had been pulled out, she no longer felt any pain. A wave of drowsiness came over her, and she nodded and fell asleep on Li Mingyan's shoulder.
When Li Mingyan returned home with the little fox in his arms, the lights in the upper living room were brightly on. Obviously, everyone knew that Bai Yaoyao was missing. No one had the heart to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoy the moon. They were all waiting anxiously.
Especially Mrs. Li, she had no idea how many times she had asked Qingxing to go out and check on Bai Yaoyao. She had tears in her eyes all the time, fearing that something might happen to Bai Yaoyao.
So, when she saw Bai Yaoyao who was wrapped tightly, the old lady stood up from her seat and rushed over crying, "Yaoyao!"
