"Long'er is back?" Ping'er asked anxiously.
"I'm back. Xiangxiang took me to get treatment for my injuries. Doctor Gu and the others are here."
The military camp was relatively well-organized, with the soldiers carrying out their tasks methodically. Only the commander's tent was in complete chaos.
The bear cub's mouth was full of blood, and the child tied around the bear's neck was taken over by Aunt Wang.
"You child, your aunt would have given her life for you."
Before Chunying woke up, the old woman found some goat milk and mixed it with the spiritual spring water for her to drink.
Da Nier and Xiang Xiang returned quickly, and few people had seen Huo Xiaolong's wound. Inside the doctor's tent, Xiaohai Jie looked at Huo Xiaolong, who was pale on the bed, and her hands trembled slightly as she picked up a needle for the first time.
Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.
Losing an arm must hurt so much. Long'er had never suffered like this before. If she had known... if she had known, she would never have let go of that child, even if it meant death.
"Xiangxiang, a doctor should be calm. Only when you calm down can you save others. No matter who is lying on the bed, if you want her to recover, you must do so." Doctor Gu's voice rang out from the side.
Pulled back to reality, Hou Xiangxiang took off her gloves and slapped herself several times in front of everyone in the tent.
The girl's face was red from the slaps, and the handprints were bleeding.
The master and senior brothers standing behind were stunned. How could their little disciple/junior sister be so ruthless to herself?
Almost every doctor has experienced this state of mind. Few can remain unmoved when their closest relatives or friends are lying in a hospital bed. But this child raised his hand and slapped them several times, and slapped them really hard!
Then, Hou Xiangxiang took a deep breath, changed her gloves, and her assistant wiped away her tears. With her hands steady as a rock, she used the needle and scissors to reattach Huo Xiaolong's arm on the bed.
"I've saved so many people, this is the most nervous I've ever been. Do you think Long'er's arm will get better in the future?"
When asked, the dark-skinned girl replied, "No, I think our family has that medicine made from Thousand Red Fruit that can cure severed limbs, right?"
Then what's your rush?
Hou Xiangxiang asked everyone from her master to her senior brother about this question. She had never seen the effect of the Thousand Red Fruit in healing severed limbs, and even though her sect knew about its effects, they dared not try it.
No one would believe it if I told them. If it could really cure severed limbs, this medicine would be a miracle drug. Any country, near or far, with enough power, would probably send troops to steal it.
The girl lying on the bed was given medicine and slept for three whole days. During these days, the women from the brothel and her family took turns taking care of her.
The first thing Huo Xiaolong saw when he woke up was Hou Xiangxiang.
"Little girl sister."
"You're awake?"
The girl nodded.
"thirsty."
"Then I'll get you some water."
With Hou Xiangxiang's help, Huo Xiaolong drank some water, then coughed a few times, revealing perfectly symmetrical handprints on both sides of Hou Xiangxiang's face.
"Who hit you?"
The girl's voice was still a little hoarse. She coughed twice, clearing her dry throat, before continuing.
"Did someone take advantage of you while I was unconscious?"
"Who do you think it is? I'll get up and go take care of him in a bit."
Huo Xiaolong spoke with increasing conviction, because she saw Hou Xiangxiang pouting and shedding tears.
"Why are you crying? It's not like you can do whatever you want anymore. Who could possibly bully you like this? Look at that slap in the face! I'll cut their brains off! Stop crying!"
"Huo Xiaolong! You can't go out like that next time! It scared me to death! Waaaaaah!"
The crying of the little girl inside the tent attracted a group of older girls. Cen Ang and He Yi were the first to enter the tent. At this time, the girl's right arm was wrapped in bandages and she could not move. The two mothers were also crying their eyes out as they watched her.
"I'm fine, don't cry, Mom."
"mom?"
"Little girl sister?"
"Da Ni'er?"
Well, that's great, several people are crying in front of her.
Da Ni'er and Hou Xiangxiang were frightened by Huo Xiaolong's appearance when he returned that day. Their faces were pale, without any color in them, their bodies were limp, and they felt cold.
He Yi and Cen Ang were frightened.
Actually, Huo Xiaolong was brought back by Xiong Zai the same day he chased Huang Ranhu.
But she remained unconscious, so people in the military camp spread the word that the Prince of Zhenbei was seriously injured and Huang Ranhu was missing.
This is actually the truth, and I'm not gossiping.
But when Lan Tingche and his two mothers in Dongyu heard the news, they rushed over here. By the time they arrived, Xiangxiang's surgery was not yet finished.
"I'm hungry, Mom. I want to eat sesame flatbread and sweet and sour pork, and maybe some pickled cabbage stewed with blood sausage too."
"You look like pickled cabbage stewed with blood sausage! What have you become? Blood sausage, please!" The little girl immediately stopped crying and said to Huo Xiaolong in a somewhat fierce tone.
"I'm hungry, what should I eat?"
"Just have some meat porridge."
Huo Xiaolong has a heavy palate, and three meals of porridge a day are like a death sentence for her.
"Don't eat any Thousand Red Fruit these days. Wait until your body has fully absorbed the medicinal effects before eating it, understand?" the little girl instructed.
"Yes, I'll be good."
One mother fed her porridge, while another wiped her face with a towel.
Ever since the initial excitement of being found had worn off, she hadn't enjoyed the royal treatment her mother gave her for a long time.
"Where's my knife? Did you get it back?" Long'er asked halfway through her meal.
"It's back."
The one speaking was Da Ni'er, who was eating braised pork and sauerkraut stewed with blood sausage in front of Huo Xiaolong with a cheeky grin.
"Where is Huang Ranhu's head?"
"It's all back now."
"Quickly find an icebox to freeze it, so I can take it back to the Da'an envoy and have Sun Zixi kill them."
He Yi suddenly exerted force with the spoon in her hand.
"Look at the state you're in, and you're still messing with other people? You've practically lost your arm. If it weren't for Xiangxiang here this time..."
"How heartbroken Mother must be."
After saying this, the woman was about to shed tears again.
Huo Xiaolong didn't even dare to swallow her porridge. Was this the kind of life her father lived?
I'm being manipulated every day, who can stop this? They attack me with magic whenever they have nothing to do.
"I quit, I quit, Mom, stop crying."
Next time I'll do it secretly.
"Does my niece have a name yet?"
The girl in the hospital bed didn't have any arm pain. Hou Xiangxiang gave her some high-quality anesthetic powder, which she prepared herself. She estimated that the girl would recover once she regained feeling in her arm, at which point she could stop taking the medication.
He Yi shook her head and replied.
“Your brother is taking care of your sister-in-law and her. You know your brother. With you lying in bed, how can he have the mind to name the child? Even Chunying…”
"What happened to my sister?" Huo Xiaolong asked anxiously.
"Chunying doesn't really want to look at that child. Every time she tries to hug him, she pulls her hand back."
"She's afraid something might happen to you, and she can't get over that hurdle in her heart yet."
