Chapter 91 New Year's Eve
"Wanquan, go take a look. There seems to be someone lying on the ground over there. Just take a look and come back. Don't get too close."
Wan Xingchen warned.
Wan Quan was a head shorter than Wan Xingchen and didn't notice the situation over there at all. Under the guidance of Wan Xingchen, he slowly walked to the man.
Soon Wanquan's voice was heard, "Come quickly, this man is still breathing, but he is seriously injured, his body is covered with bloody wounds, and he is still bleeding."
Wanquan's courage had been developed through the entire exile, so he was no longer afraid when he saw the seriously injured man.
Wan Xingchen had already heard Wan Quan's words, and he hurriedly carried little Fubao to the middle of the mountain.
The other guys behind followed closely behind.
"This person doesn't look like a good person?" Wan Xingchen murmured.
Little Fubao grabbed Wan Xingchen's collar and said, "Guoguo - save Yin -"
Wan Xingchen hesitated slightly, but Wan Quan remembered what his grandmother said. No matter what his sister said, the whole family should listen to her. If his sister asked them to jump into the river, they should jump in without hesitation, as there might be gold under the river.
Wan Quan remembers it most clearly when he heard his sister say that she wanted to save people.
Wan Quan said without hesitation: "Brothers, let's carry the person back together."
The boys in the Wan family have always been very united. When Wan Quan suggested carrying the body back, no one objected and they hurried over to help.
The two youngest ones were of no help at all. They just pulled at the man's trouser legs, grimaced, and almost fell on their butts.
Fortunately, there were a few big guys there, and they worked together to lift the man down the hillside.
Looking at the village which was still quite far away, several people felt a little tired. Wouldn't it be noon before they could carry the things back?
Wan Xingchen said to Wan Quan, "Wan Quan, I'll watch here, go back and call the adults."
Wanquan thinks this method is the fastest.
Wan Quan ran home as fast as he could. When he brought back Wan Lao Da and Wan Lao Er, sweating profusely, the man's breathing was already very weak. The yellow earth under the man had been dyed dark red by the blood, and condensed into small pieces and scattered on the ground.
Before Wan Lao Da could think about it, he and Wan Lao Er quickly lifted the man up and went home.
Old Mrs. Wan had already learned from Wan Quan that it was Xiao Fubao who found the person, so the eldest and second oldest Wan dared to come and carry the person away.
After the man was carried back, Old Lady Wan asked her son to place the man in the next yard, where there was an empty room, but it was right next to Qiu's.
When Qiu heard this, she volunteered to help.
Qiu quickly cleaned up the room, and Boss Wan laid the man flat on the kang.
The man had lost consciousness and allowed himself to be manipulated by several people.
Old Mrs. Wan took one look at the man covered in blood and hurried back to call Mrs. Wan Er.
"Second brother's wife, do you have any hemostatic herbs? I remember you picked a lot when you passed through the forest, right?"
Wan Ersao was busy washing the sheets. She responded crisply, "Mom, yes, I'll get it for you."
Wan Ersao quickly got up from the small stool, wiped her hands on her apron, and went into the house.
Soon she took out a handful of herbs and handed them to Mrs. Wan.
"Mom, just crush these herbs and apply them to the wound and bandage it. But if the other party is too seriously injured, it is better to go to the town to see a doctor. I am using these for emergency treatment and can only save his life temporarily."
Old Mrs. Wan nodded hurriedly, took the herbs and returned to the next yard.
Qiu had gone to boil water, and Boss Wan was cutting the other person's clothes with scissors.
The clothes were a little difficult to take off, and Boss Wan was afraid that it would tear the man's wound and cause greater harm.
So he simply used scissors to cut Boss Wan's clothes.
The kang in the room was already burning, and there was a pot of fire on the ground, burning brightly. There was also a thick cotton curtain hanging at the door, which was purchased by the mayor at the beginning by Lu Changxin.
The temperature in the room rose quickly, but it didn't feel that cold.
On the contrary, Boss Wan had been busy for a long time, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Old Lady Wan brought some hemostatic herb to Boss Wan, but Boss Wan was a rough man. He had seen at least four or five wounds on the man's body, and one fatal wound was on his chest.
Boss Wan was holding the herbs in his hand, feeling a little overwhelmed. Just then, Qiu came in with hot water and saw Boss Wan standing there in a daze.
"Brother Wan, what's wrong with you?"
Qiu put the basin in her hand on the kang table, turned around and asked.
"My mother asked me to apply the medicine, but how can I do such delicate work? I was wondering how my second brother and his wife bandaged people."
Hearing this, Qiu smiled softly, took the herbs from Boss Wan and said, "Brother Wan, let me do it. You are sweating all over your forehead. Go out and cool down first."
Boss Wan seemed to have finally thrown away this hot potato. He quickly stuffed the herbs to Qiu and told him how to use them.
Qiu nodded and said, "I understand, Brother Wan."
Boss Wan then strode out of the room, leaving only Qiu and the man in the room.
Just now, because Boss Wan was there, Qiu didn't feel it. But now that Boss Wan suddenly left, Qiu suddenly felt a little embarrassed. They were alone with a man and a woman, and the man had taken off his shirt. However, seeing the man's face getting paler and paler, Qiu no longer hesitated and quickly crushed the herbs and put them aside for later use.
He picked up the handkerchief and gently cleaned the man's wound.
The man couldn't help but frown. He opened his eyes slightly and saw a pretty and gentle woman helping him wipe his body.
Wang Jiawei fainted again after just one look. Before fainting, he was thinking, is there such a beautiful woman at the border?
Qiu didn't know that Wang Jiawei had seen her. She was just focused on the work in her hands. Soon, Wang Jiawei's wound was bandaged by Qiu.
Qiu carefully covered Wang Jiawei with a quilt, then carried a basin of blood out of the room.
Qiu went back to help. Old Lady Wan asked with a smile, "Has it been bandaged?"
"Aunt, he's fine now, but he seems to have not woken up yet." Thinking of the moment when he was bandaging the other person, the other person's muscles were as hard as iron, Qiu's face couldn't help but turn red.
"Just bandage it up. General Wan managed to survive even though his arm was broken. I think it's fine. Let's talk about it after the New Year's Eve. It's unlucky to go to the clinic today."
After Old Lady Wan made the final decision, no one dared to say anything.
The New Year’s Eve dinner was very sumptuous.
But this is only relative to the people in the village. At least there is meat and chicken.
Old Mrs. Wan asked Mrs. Wan San to make some egg drop soup that was easy to digest, and asked Boss Wan to deliver it to the people in the next courtyard.
This man was injured, and if he wants to recover quickly, he must get enough nutrition. These two eggs were taken out by Wan Sansao from Xiao Fubao's food rations.
Mrs. Wan San quickly made a bowl of egg drop soup and added some sesame oil. The fragrance could be smelled from far away.
When Boss Wan was about to take it, Qiu quickly stood up and said, "Aunt, let me go. Brother Wan, as a man, shouldn't be able to do such delicate work. I'm not in a hurry to eat. You guys eat first, I'll come back later."
After saying this, Qiu took the bowl and spoon from Wan Sansao.
Old Mrs. Wan felt that what Qiu said made sense and she didn't think much about it. After all, it did seem a bit unreasonable to ask a grown man to do the job of serving.
"Okay, thank you for your help. I'll ask your sister-in-law to put some more meat and vegetables in the pot. You don't have to heat it up again when you come back. It's still hot."
Qiu was touched and quickly thanked her: "Thank you, auntie, but you don't have to leave much for me. I can't eat much, so just give it to everyone else."
Qiu carried the bowl to the next yard, pushed open the door with a creak, and saw the man on the kang with his eyes open, still a little dazed.
"Are you awake?" Qiu's voice was as soft and delicate as a Jiangnan girl's. Wang Jiawei's heart trembled when he heard it. He slowly turned his head to look at the person who came.
I saw a slim woman wearing a brand new jacket and cotton trousers, a pair of cotton shoes, and her jet-black hair was casually gathered behind her and wrapped in a handkerchief. The woman had a pretty face, and it seemed like I had seen her somewhere before.
"Where is this place? Why am I here?" Wang Jiawei's voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded like he had been stabbed by a knife.
Qiu had already walked to Wang Jiawei's side and placed the bowl in her hand on the kang table.
The unique aroma of sesame oil went straight into Wang Jiawei's nostrils. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He had been hungry for two days and two nights. In order to avoid being hunted by his enemies, he had been hiding from place to place for the past two days. He was already starving to the point of seeing stars.
"Young Master is now at my aunt's house. My little Fubao found you, and then someone from the Wan family rescued you."
Qiu glanced at Wang Jiawei and quickly lowered her head, because Wang Jiawei was staring at Qiu intently, and Qiu was so scared that she didn't dare to look him in the eye.
A faint sense of ambiguity suddenly arose in the room.
Outside the village, a group of people were looking for Wang Jiawei everywhere, but to no avail, and were searching house by house.
