When Mei Ya heard these four words, she couldn't help but feel a sore nose. She didn't say anything to Gu Changlin, but just held Zhong Mingwei's hand tighter.
"Girl, bring me the wine jar." Gu Changlin looked like nothing had happened. He had just scolded Mei Ya harshly, but now he was very friendly.
"Oh." Mei Ya hurriedly agreed and let go of Zhong Mingwei's hand. She got off the kang. She brought the small wine jar from the table. The wine jar could only hold one pound of wine, and now it was filled with realgar wine. There was a lot of gauze soaked in it, and Mei Ya placed the wine jar in front of Gu Changlin.
Gu Changlin took out some realgar wine to clean the entire knee, then pulled out half of the gauze from the wine jar. He folded it and placed it directly on the exposed knee. Then he took out ordinary gauze and wrapped it around the outside in circles.
"You won't have to suffer every day from now on," Gu Changlin wrapped the gauze around his leg while removing the gauze on his other leg. He said to Zhong Mingwei, "There was a lot of pus before, and a lot of it came out every day. So I had to clean one side every day, but now it's less. From now on, I'll just clean one side every two days. When the pus is less, I'll be able to apply medicine to you. By then, you can take both external and internal medicine, plus acupuncture, and the effect should be good."
"Thank you, sir." Zhong Mingwei said to Gu Changlin with gratitude.
"Don't use these empty words. If you can recover quickly, that will be the greatest gratitude to me," Gu Changlin said as he continued to cut the pus, blood and rotten flesh on the other knee. He suddenly smiled and said, "I have to thank your girl. She is very good at stewing bone soup. If you drink a few bowls every day, you will feel better."
Zhong Mingwei was in terrible pain, but after hearing what Gu Changlin said, he couldn't help but laugh again: "Yes, her bone soup is well stewed, so my injury will naturally heal faster."
"Sir, you're teasing me again," Mei Ya said a little embarrassedly. The discomfort in her heart had disappeared. She nervously held Zhong Mingwei's hand and wanted to ask him if it hurt, but she swallowed the words back. She wiped the sweat off Zhong Mingwei's face and whispered, "If you behave better, I will not only make you bone soup today, but also a bowl of noodle dumplings."
"My performance is not good enough...hiss..." Zhong Mingwei grinned at Mei Ya, but couldn't help gasping for air while laughing. In fact, without Gu Changlin telling him, he had discovered that as long as Mei Ya was by his side, he became very weak and couldn't bear any pain. He had gritted his teeth and endured it without making a sound in the past few days, but today, he couldn't help it and "hissed" from time to time. It was really embarrassing, but every time he saw Mei Ya's distressed and anxious look, he felt that even if it was embarrassing, it didn't matter.
"Good! Very good! I'll make you two bowls later!" Mei Ya said hurriedly, staring at Gu Changlin's hand nervously while whispering to Zhong Mingwei, "It will be ready soon, just a little while later, just hold on a little longer!"
Gu Changlin listened to Mei Ya's words and couldn't help but want to reply, "We haven't even started yet, it's still too early!" But he didn't say it in the end. Instead, he quickened his movements. Firstly, he couldn't bear to let Zhong Mingwei suffer any more pain, and secondly, he really didn't want to stay in the room any longer. The young couple was being too affectionate, and he, an old man in his sixties, was really embarrassed.
Finally, after cleaning up, Gu Changlin put down the scissors in his hand and shouted, "Girl..."
"Hey!" Mei Ya agreed crisply, and then hurriedly handed over the small wine jar, while busy asking, "Sir, do you want this?"
"What a clever fellow." Gu Changlin smiled at Mei Ya, then took the jar of wine, cleaned Zhong Mingwei's wound, and bandaged it.
Finally, the work was done and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Changlin and Mei Ya helped Zhong Mingwei inside and let him lie down to rest. Then Mei Ya helped Gu Changlin organize the medicine box and other things.
"Where's Pang Yi?" Mei Ya asked casually while picking up the gauze on the ground, "It seems that I haven't seen him since breakfast."
"Who knows? That guy has been a little bit confused since yesterday." Speaking of Pang Yi, Gu Changlin was really angry. "First, he asked me to drink some deer antler wine. Is that wine? It's just plain water! Then he disappeared. I waited for him in that shabby tavern for nearly two hours! I almost licked the plate clean, and he just came back with a droopy face. Good guy, he is still unhappy!"
