Chapter 66 Oh! Not pretending to be dead?
Lan Xiyue's footsteps seemed particularly hurried. Chu Xia, who was tightly held in her arms, had a face as pale as paper. The dagger on her chest was very glaring, and there were bloodstains all around.
The guards at the door of the Marquis' Mansion fell silent at the same time when faced with Lan Xiyue's gloomy face.
The determination and murderous intent in his eyes seemed to be able to freeze the air in an instant, making people feel cold.
Lan Xiyue had no time to care about these things. She just held Chuxia in her arms and rushed all the way to Xilingyuan.
As soon as they reached the backyard, Lan Jiaoyun came towards them: "Ah! When did big sister become so strong? You, a servant, are so ignorant that you actually let big sister carry you."
However, when her eyes fell upon Chu Xia's shocking wound, she couldn't help but take several steps back in fear.
"This... Big sister, what happened to your maid? Who hurt her?" There was a hint of curiosity and gloating in Lan Jiaoyun's voice that was difficult to conceal.
"Go away!" The cold tone was like the bitterest wind in winter, piercing people's hearts.
Lan Jiaoyun was frightened by Lan Xiyue's murderous look and trembled all over, and involuntarily gave way.
She had never seen Lan Xiyue so terrifying before. Lan Jiaoyun looked at Lan Xiyue's receding figure and stamped her feet. "Hmph! She's just a maid, and she's so nervous. How come she's not the one who got hurt? Hmph!"
She turned to look at the maid beside her and ordered, "Go and find out what happened to my good sister and why she came back with her injured maid."
"yes"
At this time, in Xiling Courtyard, Nanny Liang was busy. Suddenly, she saw Lan Xiyue rushing in with Chuxia in her arms. Seeing the dagger on Chuxia's chest and the bloodstains on her chest, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Miss, what happened to Chuxia? How did you get injured?" Her voice was full of anxiety and concern.
Lan Xiyue simply ordered with a cold expression, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Bring hot water immediately, and prepare some clean cotton cloth and scissors."
Seeing this, Nanny Liang didn't dare to ask any more questions and hurried downstairs to prepare.
Chuchun also followed Nanny Liang downstairs crying.
Lan Xiyue carried Chu Xia back to the room and gently placed her on the bed.
Nanny Liang came in with hot water, and Chuchun also came in with clean cotton cloth and scissors.
Lan Xiyue didn't even turn her head. "Put it aside. Go out, close the door, and don't let anyone disturb me."
Chuchun choked up and said, "Miss, why don't I go get a doctor."
"Chu Xia will be fine as long as I'm here."
Nanny Liang took Chuchun out and closed the door. Nanny Liang saw Chuchun still sobbing softly. Nanny Liang held Chuchun's hand and whispered to comfort her: "Believe me, Miss, Chuxia will be fine. I am here to take good care of you."
Chuchun hummed softly, then tearfully told Madam Liang what had just happened.
In the room, Lan Xiyue took a pair of scissors and cut open Chuxia's clothes, revealing a shocking wound on her chest. She had used a special hemostatic technique to stop the bleeding from the wound before. Now she pulled out the dagger and treated the wound.
Without alcohol for disinfection, Lan Xiyue rubbed the silver needle and the embroidery needle over the candle flame to disinfect them, and then put them aside. Then she held the dagger to her chest, took a deep breath, and pulled it out with force.
In an instant, blood gushed out like a fountain. Lan Xiyue quickly threw away the dagger, took the silver needles from her side, and with flying fingers, the silver needles were firmly inserted into the acupuncture points on Chu Xia's chest.
The silver needle flashed with a cold light, and soon, the surging blood miraculously stopped, leaving only a few thin lines of blood slowly seeping out.
Fine beads of sweat had already seeped out of Lan Xiyue's forehead, but she didn't bother to wipe them off. She took the handkerchief beside her, quickly walked to the basin, wet it, and then carefully squeezed out the water.
She gently and skillfully wiped the blood off Chuxia's chest, then she took out the needle and thread and began to sew up Chuxia's wound.
The needle and thread seemed to have life in her hands, moving flexibly across Chuxia's skin. Soon, the wound was neatly sutured.
Lan Xiyue did not stop there. She took out a bag of medicinal powder she had made from the space and gently sprinkled it on Chuxia's wound.
The powder can stop bleeding, reduce inflammation and promote wound healing.
After doing all this, Lan Xiyue let out a long breath, stood up and stretched.
Lan Xiyue walked to the table and waved her hand. A large pile of medicinal herbs instantly appeared on the table. They were all bought by Lan Xiyue at the pharmacy before.
After picking out some necessary herbs, she waved her hand and put the rest into the space.
She wrapped up the herbs, walked over and opened the door. As soon as she opened the door, Chuchun at the door turned around and looked at her eagerly.
"Miss……"
Lan Xiyue handed the herbs to Chuchun and instructed, "Go and boil these herbs. Use three bowls of water to make one bowl, and feed it to Chuxia."
Chuchun took the herbs and quickly left.
Lan Xiyue walked to the stone table in the yard and sat down slowly.
The sunshine shines on her body, but it cannot dispel the haze in her heart.
Seeing this, Madam Liang hurried forward and asked with concern, "Miss, Chuchun just told me that fortunately, you are fine. Do you want to tell the master about this and let him make the decision for you?"
Lan Xiyue shook her head. "No need. Even if I tell my scumbag dad, he'll just blame me for getting into trouble again."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Liang couldn't help but sigh, then she said with relief, "When did the young lady learn medical skills? That's great! Who will dare to say our young lady can't do anything in the future?"
Lan Xiyue frowned slightly, feeling a little irritated. She stood up and said, "Nanny, please watch over me. If Chuxia gets a fever, tell me immediately. I'll go back and rest for a while."
Madam Liang nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of heartache and understanding: "Okay, I'll go and take care of it. Miss, go back and rest."
Lan Xiyue nodded, turned around and slowly walked back to her room.
The door closed gently, she walked to the small couch and lay down on it.
Lan Xiyue sighed, her heart bleeding. Forty-one thousand points were gone just like that. This crappy system really made her angry.
System: "Master, don't dwell on cursing me. Instead, focus on earning points. After all, you don't have much time left."
Lan Xiyue was startled. "Huh! Not pretending to be dead anymore?"
System: “…”Okay, it’s not angry anymore. The host is still angry, so it might as well continue to pretend to be dead!
Lan Xiyue was holding back her anger and couldn't swallow it. She had never suffered such a loss before. She couldn't settle the score with the system, so naturally she would blame it all on that Bai Lianhua.
