Chapter 171 Who wasted the food sent to the people in Wanxian?
After a long time, with the precise placement of the last stitch, the wound on the woman's abdomen was sutured tightly.
Lan Xiyue took the silver needle again and skillfully gave the woman acupuncture, allowing her to sleep a little longer.
"Sleep as long as you can, otherwise the pain from your wound will be unbearable when you wake up."
After finishing the process, she picked up the little life that came into the world prematurely, and the little guy fell asleep quietly.
Outside, the anxiously waiting man immediately went up to Lan Xiyue when he saw her coming out, his eyes full of urgency: "Girl, how is my wife?" His voice trembled slightly. Since Lan Xiyue went in, there had been no sound in the room, which made him even more worried.
Lan Xiyue looked at him and said, "Don't worry, mother and child are safe. However, your wife is currently in a coma, and her wound will be extremely painful when she wakes up. Although the child is premature and a little weak, he is fine."
As she spoke, she gently handed the baby to the man's arms. At that moment, tears flashed in the man's eyes, joy and gratitude intertwined. He hugged the child tightly and hurried inside.
Lan Xiyue walked into the tent again and carefully explained the follow-up precautions to the man. Suddenly, the man's face changed and he exclaimed in shock: "What? You cut a knife in my wife's stomach?" His voice trembled with shock, and it was obvious that he was having trouble accepting this fact.
Lan Xiyue's expression darkened instantly. She lowered her voice and said, "Be quiet. Don't disturb her. Let her sleep a little longer."
The man's voice stopped abruptly. He looked at Lan Xiyue in astonishment. His hand unconsciously reached out to his wife's breath. Feeling the faint but real breath, his heart finally slowly settled down.
The man knelt on the ground holding the baby in his arms and said, "Thank you, girl, for saving my wife and children."
"Get up. I'm going to make some medicine now and have someone bring it over later." After saying that, Lan Xiyue walked out.
Mo Liyuan's gaze fell gently on Lan Xiyue, and he said softly, "Yuer, go to the tent over there and rest for a while."
Lan Xiyue smiled slightly and followed Mo Liyuan into the tent.
Inside the tent, a cold look flashed across Mo Liyuan's eyes, and he said, "Yu'er, I'm going to take care of some business. You can rest here without any worries. I've already moved all the herbs from the carriage. Feel free to take whatever you need."
Lan Xiyue nodded, and as she watched Mo Liyuan leave, she muttered, "A Caesarian section really isn't a difficult task for her, especially with the assistance of this weird old man."
She walked aside, picked out the herbs, and started tinkering with them.
At this moment, Chu Xia and Chu Chun walked in, their faces filled with curiosity and surprise. Chu Xia couldn't help but ask, "Miss, I heard you performed a cesarean section to deliver a baby? Is that true?"
"Yeah, who told you that?"
Chu Xia replied, "It was that man from before. He was outside saying that you are a skilled doctor and that you performed a cesarean section on his wife to deliver the baby. The doctor who went in just now said that the woman was breathing steadily and was not in danger of death. Now the people outside are talking about it and praising your medical skills!"
Lan Xiyue smiled faintly upon hearing this. She then pointed to the packed herbs beside her and said, "Go and boil this medicine. Bring it to the woman when it's done. It will help ease the pain from her wound."
Chuchun took the herbs and started busying herself, while Chuxia muttered to herself, "Miss, the Regent just left in a hurry with his men. It was already dark, and no one knew where they went."
Lan Xiyue frowned slightly when she heard this and exclaimed, "An Yi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, An Yi walked in and bowed, "Miss Lan."
"Where is the prince?"
An Yi's expression darkened, and he whispered, "The prince had the grain sent from the nearby Wanshou County delayed, so he sent secret guards to investigate. They discovered that the yamen runners delivering the grain had been killed when they passed through Mogu Mountain, and even the grain had been destroyed and dumped into the mud. The prince went to investigate the situation himself, and has already mobilized grain from several nearby counties. The roads are flooded, so we have to take a detour from Mogu Mountain through Qingshan. It will probably arrive the day after tomorrow afternoon."
Lan Xiyue's expression became solemn when she heard this. No wonder she seemed to have seen a flash of coldness in Mo Liyuan's eyes just now.
The people of Huilong County have suffered so much. The flood has submerged their homes and many people have lost their loved ones. Who was it that ruined the food sent to these people by Wanxian?
She should have gone to the grain store and put the grain into the space instead of just thinking about the medicinal herbs. Alas!
An Er came in with a roasted chicken, "Miss Lan, this is a pheasant that my subordinates caught in the forest. Please fill your stomach first."
"What about the people?"
An Er said, "Some people have gone into the mountains and forests to hunt and pick wild fruits and vegetables. They can barely make ends meet. We will be fine once food arrives from the surrounding areas the day after tomorrow. The master has already written a letter and sent it back to the capital at an express speed of 800 miles."
Lan Xiyue nodded and waved.
An Yi and An Er retreated, Lan Xiyue tore off a piece of chicken leg, and gave the rest to Chu Chun and Chu Xia to share.
Lan Xiyue gnawed on a chicken leg while asking the system, "By the way, system, how many points and merits do I have now?"
System: "One thousand points, one hundred merits!"
Lan Xiyue narrowed her eyes slightly. This damn system had swallowed her points again. Even if she fell asleep last night, she must have earned quite a lot of points before falling asleep. How could it be only a thousand!
