Chapter 34: Applying Medicine
But even so, when they asked him for help again, Jiang Tangtang hardened his heart and ignored them.
She didn't want to put herself and her family in danger anymore.
Moreover, through what happened last night, she also deeply realized that this was not the civilized society she used to live in, and if she was not careful, her life might be in danger.
In addition to the refugee issue, what Jiang Tangtang was even more worried about was the person who fought with Lu Shiyan last night.
Those people clearly didn't look like robbers.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Lu Shiyan said after the wolf attack last time. He seemed to have said that those wolves were not wild wolves, but domesticated?
Could it be that someone wants to kill them?
Jiang Tangtang was frightened by his own guess and broke out in a cold sweat.
Oh my god! Being exiled as a fat man is bad enough, but if she is also hunted down, is there any hope for her survival?
Thinking about how Lu Shiyan easily dealt with several big men yesterday, Jiang Tangtang suddenly realized that this man is no longer just her nominal husband.
That is also the guarantee of her future life safety.
Jiang Tangtang pushed open the carriage door and looked at Lu Shiyan who was driving outside and asked, "Are you okay?"
As she spoke, she climbed out of the car, sat next to him, checked his body and asked, "Are you hurt?"
Upon taking a look, he immediately discovered several wounds on his body.
Jiang Tangtang really wanted to slap herself twice. She was so focused on her random thoughts that she forgot to care whether he was injured.
She couldn't help but complain, "You too, why didn't you tell me you were injured? Are you a child? You can't take care of yourself at all. Go to the carriage quickly, I'll bandage your wound."
Lu Shiyan said casually: "It's okay, just a minor injury!"
Jiang Tangtang said: "If a minor injury is not treated properly, it will turn into a major injury."
In the carriage, Madam Lu also said, "Shi Yan, don't be willful. Listen to your wife."
After saying that, he said to Su, "You go outside and drive the carriage. I'll go down for a walk. I've been huddled in the carriage for several days. If I don't move, my joints will be rusty. I'll go stretch my muscles."
At this time, it had stopped raining outside, and the space in the carriage was limited. Madam Lu suggested going down for a walk, and Jiang Tangtang did not stop her.
Lu Shiyan couldn't persuade Jiang Tangtang, so he had to follow her into the carriage.
But once they got into the carriage, Jiang Tangtang felt a little uncomfortable. Asking their father to take off his clothes in front of these children?
Fortunately, the children seemed to understand her embarrassment very well. Lu Jingcheng suddenly said he was sleepy, and then he huddled the two little ones together and they all closed their eyes and fell asleep.
Jiang Tangtang: “…”
"Give me the medicine, I'll do it myself!" Lu Shiyan said.
Jiang Tangtang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's clean the wound first, then apply medicine! To avoid infection."
She heated some water on the stove, which wasn't too much trouble. She poured the water into a basin and squeezed a cloth to clean his wound.
The food has been good recently, and Lu Shiyan doesn't look as thin as when she first came here, and her figure is more attractive.
Jiang Tangtang felt a little uncomfortable. After simply cleaning the wound, she handed him the medicine and said, "Then you go ahead."
She wanted to find a reason to get off the bus, but thinking about the questions in her head, she endured the discomfort and continued to sit in the car.
The children may not have slept well last night, and soon after they lay down, they could hear the sound of even breathing.
After seeing that the children were truly asleep, Jiang Tangtang asked quietly, "What happened to those people last night? Were they sent by the Emperor to hunt us down?"
She thought about it and felt that she could not think of anyone else except that foolish dog emperor.
Unexpectedly, Lu Shiyan shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be."
"Do you know who it is?" Jiang Tangtang looked at her in surprise.
"Not sure yet, but... it doesn't seem like the method used by the guy above." Lu Shiyan slowly sprinkled the powder on the wound. The wound was deep and long, but he didn't frown at all, as if he didn't feel any pain.
"Will the other party send someone else?" Jiang Tangtang asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, I'm here to protect you." Lu Shiyan said.
Jiang Tangtang also wanted to ask, was the wolf from last time also sent by the other party?
However, seeing that he didn't want to talk any more, he didn't ask any more questions. He made a bowl of lotus root powder and handed it to him, saying, "This is lotus root powder. It has the effect of nourishing blood and promoting muscle growth. Drink some to replenish your body. After drinking it, you can rest in the carriage! I'll go down and see if there are any anti-inflammatory herbs."
Although walking is tiring, she doesn't feel it's hard as long as she thinks that walking can help her lose weight.
Feeling the loose clothes on her body, Jiang Tangtang happily got off the donkey cart and picked wild vegetables and herbs as she walked.
At this time of year, the dandelions on the road are just tender.
Whether it is used to boil water for Lu Shiyan to drink or to make cold dishes, it is a very good choice.
Before he knew it, Jiang Tangtang had filled a large cloth bag.
When the officers called for a break at noon, Jiang Tangtang found a pond and washed dandelions.
While he was busy, Lu Yingxun limped over and said, "Niece-in-law, you haven't used up the medicine you bought last time in the city, right? Give me some."
Jiang Tangtang looked at him angrily and said, "I haven't even settled the score with you for letting the refugees steal our donkey carts! And you still have the nerve to come to me and ask for medicine? How dare you be so shameless?"
Lu Yingxun chuckled and said, "That's what the refugees said. It has nothing to do with me!"
Jiang Tangtang said in disgust: "Get away!"
Lu Yingxun pulled out a knife from somewhere and said with a ferocious look on his face, "You'd better be sensible, otherwise—"
"What else?" A cold voice suddenly sounded in the air.
When Lu Yingxun saw Lu Shiyan coming to the pond at some point, his expression suddenly changed. "Nephew, why are you here?"
"You don't think that just because I didn't look for you, we'll just let what happened last night go, right?" Lu Shiyan said coldly as he approached Lu Yingxun.
"You...what do you want to do?" Lu Yingxun retreated nervously and said, "I am your second uncle. If you dare to disrespect me, be careful of being struck by lightning!"
"For all the insane things you've done that have brought shame to the Lu family, you deserve to be struck by lightning a thousand times. You haven't even been struck by lightning, so why should I be afraid?"
Lu Shiyan pushed him straight into the water before he stopped and said, "Be careful. You won't be so lucky next time."
After saying that, Lu Shiyan helped Jiang Tangtang put the washed wild vegetables back into the cloth bag, took her hand and said, "Let's go!"
"How did you get here?" Feeling the strength and warmth from his big hand, Jiang Tangtang inexplicably felt her cheeks getting hot.
"Since you haven't been back for a long time, I came to see you." Lu Shiyan said, "Don't go to remote places alone next time. It's not safe."
Jiang Tangtang nodded confusedly and said, "I understand." After that, she added, "But even if you didn't come, I wouldn't be afraid of him."
