When the mother and daughter came in with the medicine and hot water, Lu Zhiheng had already used the dagger in his hand to remove the bullet from the wound.
When the mother and daughter came in, they saw the bullet that had been dug out fall to the ground with a thud. At first, they were a little stunned, but when they smelled blood, the mother and daughter quickly ran over to help stop the bleeding, clean the wound, and apply medicine and bandages.
The bullet has been removed; now all they need to do is apply some medicine, bandage it, and then wait for the wound to heal on its own.
Lu Zhiheng had already completely fainted while the mother and daughter were treating his wounds.
The medicine He Caiwei gave him was all produced by the space, but it also contained some ordinary medicine from outside, so that he wouldn't heal too quickly and arouse Lu Zhiheng's suspicion.
Just as the mother and daughter finished their work, the sound of firecrackers for the New Year rang out outside.
He Caiwei glanced at him twice, then, still in her pajamas and with messy hair, she wished her mother a Happy New Year: "Happy New Year, Mother! May you become more and more beautiful and may all your wishes come true."
"Thank you, my darling. I also hope that our darling will grow up to be more and more beautiful and that all your wishes will come true." He Yuping said as she tried to reach into her pockets for a red envelope, but she forgot that she was wearing pajamas and had no pockets to put anything in. With no red envelope in sight, she had no choice but to give up.
"Sweetie, let's make it up tomorrow morning. I'll help him, and you can feed him some rice porridge and put a damp cloth on his head. Then go back to sleep. I'm so sleepy I can barely keep my eyes open." He Yuping was really sleepy, so sleepy she could barely keep her eyes open. She had never stayed up this late before.
"I understand, Mother. There's no need to put a handkerchief on his head. Just give him some water from the space." He Caiwei thought this was a simple and convenient method. No one needed to take care of him here, and there was no need to worry about him getting a fever in the middle of the night.
"No need, this person's senses are too acute. Don't give him that water anymore, just leave it as it is." Last time it was out of necessity, but this time I can't let my daughter give him that magical water again.
Although Lu Zhiheng didn't drink the magical space water, the rice soup He Caiwei gave him was cooked from rice produced by the space itself, which actually had some effect in helping wounds heal.
After taking care of him, the mother and daughter went back to rest, without bothering to check if he had a fever. Perhaps because she was worried about the injured person at home, He Yuping got up very early the next morning.
After quietly washing up and changing my clothes, I opened the guest room door and found that he was already awake. It seemed that the sound of me getting up had woken him up.
"Comrade, you're finally awake. Is there anything else that's bothering you? It's the first day of the Lunar New Year, so it's impossible to see a doctor today. If you're feeling unwell, you'll have to bear it yourself." He Yuping saw that he was awake but didn't come in; she just stood at the door and kept talking.
Lu Zhiheng was speechless. This was just unbelievable. He thought the man was saying he was feeling unwell and needed to see a doctor, but instead, he was telling him to just suffer on his own.
"It's alright now, thank you for saving my life, Comrade He. This is the second time. I haven't paid back the fifty silver dollars for the last trip. I'll make it up to you this time." Lu Zhiheng could only smile helplessly and brought up the previous incident again. He really wasn't unwilling to pay; he had genuinely fainted that time.
"No need, I said before that you don't need to pay, so you don't need to pay. Never mind, I won't argue with you. I'll go get you some food first. We don't eat dumplings here for the New Year, we only make glutinous rice balls. Do you want some? Or do you want rice? I still have some of the food I made last night. I'll heat it up for you. After all, it's the New Year, we can't just make do with a bowl of porridge." He Yuping didn't care whether he answered or not. Anyway, he wouldn't accept money again after not accepting it before.
But since it's the Lunar New Year, even if we can't have a big feast, we should at least get something edible that can be considered meat.
In Shenzhen, people don't eat dumplings during the Lunar New Year. I think injured people shouldn't eat glutinous rice balls, but they can probably have some meat porridge.
He Caiwei heard that her mother had woken up, but she didn't come out with her. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. They had just arrived here and didn't know many people. They didn't need to visit anyone's house to wish them a Happy New Year. Last night was too late. She had just lain down when she heard the sound of firecrackers, which kept her from sleeping. She could only go back to her space to hide. She didn't want to get up now.
Lu Zhiheng was speechless. This person just finished speaking and left without waiting for his reply.
She doesn't seem like a housewife at all. I saw her and her daughter twice, and I never saw anyone protecting them or a man in their home, which is very strange.
He Caiwei took another nap and didn't wake up until about 10 a.m.
"Hmm, you're awake. I was saying, Uncle, why did you have to hide in my house of all places? You really know how to pick a spot." He Caiwei saw Lu Zhiheng sitting by the well sunbathing and teased him a bit.
"Of course they know how to pick places! Otherwise, how could they have run into such a cute little girl, twice in a row?" Lu Zhiheng looked at the little girl who had just come out of the room. Such a delicate little girl couldn't be raised by an ordinary family.
Every time he saw this little girl, he felt that she looked familiar, but he had met so many people that he had no idea where he had seen her before.
"Uncle, could you wear something nicer next time? You always have a different face when I see you, it looks weird." He Caiwei looked at his ordinary face, so plain that he would be easily lost in a crowd, and wrinkled her nose.
Lu Zhiheng was stunned for a moment. He had forgotten that the skin on his face was different this time. He just didn't know how this little girl recognized him.
"That won't do. I need a plain, unremarkable face so that people won't remember me." He uses a different face mask every time he goes on a mission, just in case some sharp-tongued people manage to remember his face.
"Heh, never mind then, whatever makes you happy. So, how about it? Are you going to stay here for a few days this time, or should I have my mother send you off again? Let's make it clear first, this time you can't just pass out without paying the fare." He Caiwei had no intention of taking his face off; she was just teasing him.
At times like these, an ordinary appearance is the only way to avoid attracting attention.
"I have to leave soon. I can walk by myself this time, so I won't trouble you." Lu Zhiheng had regained consciousness and felt that his abdominal injury had been treated. He could leave on his own, and the meeting point was nearby, so he didn't need them to take him.
He Yuping didn't participate in their conversation. After she finished making the meat porridge in the kitchen and brought it out, she heard a knock on the front door. Lu Zhiheng quickly ran into his old room and closed the door.
After watching the door close, He Yuping waved for her daughter to come in with her, then slowly walked over and opened the door while calling out, "Who is it?"
