Li Mai nodded to Xu Xing and began to examine his throat. It wasn't something that could be solved by medicine. She went over and whispered a few words to Zhou Quan, who understood.
After clearing the area in Limai and blocking Xu Changhuan's view, Zhou Quan went over and gently placed his palm on Xu Xing's throat, whispering, "Close your eyes!"
Xu Xing obediently closed her eyes.
The next moment, I felt a burning sensation in my throat.
Gradually, he felt a bloody, sweet taste coming from his throat.
Zhou Quan withdrew his palm and stepped back.
Li Mai then picked up a basin from the side and said, "Spit out the blood from your throat, don't swallow it."
Xu Xing obediently spat out the bloody taste in her throat.
What he vomited was dark red blood.
Li Mai handed the basin to Xu Changhuan, "Go clean it up."
Xu Changhuan agreed and took it out to handle it.
Li Mai placed the medicinal herb in a bowl of water, then swept the surface of the bowl with her palm and had Zhou Quan carry it over to feed Xu Xing half a bowl of water.
“Master Xu, you can speak after you finish drinking the herbal water, but I suggest you speak less and rest more today.”
After Li Mai finished speaking, Zhou Quan also finished feeding them.
After putting down his bowl, Zhou Quan returned to Li Mai's side. The couple standing together was a sight to behold for Xu Changhe and Xu Xing, who were watching them.
After Xu Xing felt the cool sensation in his throat from drinking that half bowl of water slowly disappear, he tried to say two words, "Thank you!"
He said it, but his voice was very low.
Xu Xing was stunned. It was so miraculous that it cured her in an instant?
When Li Mai heard that he could speak, she smiled and said, "It's alright. Just try to talk as little as possible, and you'll be fine in a few days."
"Okay!" Xu Xing responded softly.
Xu Changhuan just pushed the door open and came in. Hearing his father say a soft "good," he was excited and went to the bedside. "That's great, Dad, Xiaomai has been cured."
Xu Xing nodded gratefully to Li Mai, then looked at Zhou Quan with the same grateful gaze.
Li Mai smiled and said to Xu Changhuan, "Your father's throat is fine now, but try to speak as little as possible today and don't shout. He will be back to normal in a few days."
"Okay, thank you, Xiaomai!" Xu Changhuan hurriedly thanked Li Mai again.
Li Mai smiled and said, "Then I'm going to eat. You all remember to eat too. Your dad can drink some rice water, but don't swallow the rice grains. He can have porridge with rice grains in it tomorrow."
Xu Changhuan agreed, and Li Mai and Zhou Quan went back to their courtyard for dinner.
Yun Chang greeted Xu Changhuan and then followed Li Mai and the others.
"Xiaomai, thank you so much!" Yun Chang walked on the other side of Limai and sincerely thanked her younger sister.
Li Mai smiled and said, "Brother, you're too kind. I hope you'll work hard and try to marry this sister-in-law."
Yun Chang chuckled, "I'll do my best. This Patriarch Xu should know who I am. There's a hint of admiration in his eyes when he looks at me."
Li Mai nodded. "That's probably because Huanhuan told him your name, and he heard about you when he was out and about."
Yun Chang nodded. "Xiaomai, once Patriarch Xu is feeling better and out of danger, you and your brother-in-law should go back first. I'll take care of the rest of things here for Huanhuan. The Xu family's affairs aren't your responsibility. You still have shops and family members to take care of."
Li Mai nodded. "Okay, I should be able to leave in about three days. I'll have to trouble you to take care of Huanhuan, brother."
"Yes, don't worry. Ah Jun has already informed Xuan Wu. Xuan Wu should be arriving in Yongzhou City tomorrow. With him here, things will proceed more smoothly for me. Don't worry!" Yun Chang said.
Li Mai nodded, "Big brother, would you like to come and have dinner with us?"
"Alright!"
Yun Chang glanced at Zhou Quan and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, after dinner, could you do me another favor?"
Zhou Quan glanced at him silently and hummed in agreement.
After the meal, Zhou Quan left with Yun Chang, and Li Mai closed the door and went back into her space to draw.
Nowadays, creating drawings when inspired has become a part of her life.
She now sleeps when she's tired and doesn't sleep when she's not; she eats when she's hungry and drinks water when she's not.
An Nanyang and Xu Changle returned to Tianxiang Village with Yun Chang's bodyguards in the middle of the night.
When An Nanyang learned about Yun Chang and Xu Changhuan's relationship, he was completely stunned. Wow, is Huanhuan really that amazing?
If Huanhuan can marry the Prince of Yun, then the Prince of Yun will be her brother-in-law, giving her a powerful backer!
However, An Nanyang, behind Yun Chang's bodyguards, honestly told Xu Chang Le about Yun Chang's identity.
Xu Changle was also incredulous at the time. When he heard that Yun Chang and his elder sister had become engaged, he thought the marriage was acceptable because he was Li Mai's elder brother. However, when he learned that he was a general and the Prince of Yun, Xu Changle was a little unhappy. He felt that his sister's status was too low in front of Yun Chang and was afraid that she would suffer from the people in the Prince's mansion after marrying into the family.
However, she didn't have time to complain to An Nanyang. After tidying up, she quickly followed the guards to Tianxiang Village.
Upon entering, after Xu Changhuan's narration, they learned about the experiences of their father and fifth senior brother.
Xu Changle was furious. She had never known that Jiang Wenhan's feelings for her and her sister were so fake that he was putting on such a convincing act.
The next day, the family discussed with Yun Chang how to deal with the Xu family's affairs, and Li Mai did not inquire further.
She only learned that An Nanyang and Xu Changle had arrived the night before when she went to check on Xu Xing and Xu Changhe and change their dressings on the morning of the second day, as was her routine.
