After confirming Qin Jian's feelings, Peng Yuan was completely relieved. Even though she lived very close to Qin Jian, she didn't think about visiting him all the time. Instead, she went to Jiang Jiu Niang's place every day.
Jiang Jiuniang tested her medical foundation and found that she knew quite a lot, almost like a half-doctor. Her theoretical knowledge was very solid, and it was clear that she had worked really hard over the years.
In the days that followed, Jiang Jiuniang would have her apply theoretical knowledge to practice, telling her about some practical cases and solutions.
Peng Yuan is a studious person. Afraid that she would not remember, she wrote it down in a notebook. Worried that the writing was not intuitive enough, she would draw a diagram to mark it, which would help her remember it quickly.
Jiang Jiuniang couldn't help but sigh, who wouldn't like such a studious apprentice?
Jiang Jiuniang wanted to take Peng Yuan as her disciple, but considering that Peng Yuan mainly wanted to learn how to treat external injuries and would soon be going to the battlefield, she had no time to learn anything else, so she had to put the idea aside for now and wait until later.
This completely baffled Qin Jian. He had always thought that Peng Yuan had come to the General's Mansion for his sake, but apart from that night, he had never seen Peng Yuan again. Even if he wanted to wait for her at the gate of her courtyard, he couldn't, because her maid said she was busy and couldn't look for him.
He was so excited he couldn't sleep the first few nights, and so depressed he couldn't sleep the next few nights. After all this, Qin Jian looked even more haggard than when he was on a mission at the border.
The other brothers had already returned to the Fire Cloud Division in Jingzhou after resting for a while, but Qin Jian remained at the Lu family, thinking that he would go back after recognizing Peng Yuan as his godparent, and also have more time to spend with her. However, the young lady did not give him the chance at all.
When she went to court with Lu Baichuan in the morning, she looked extremely haggard, which shocked Lu Baichuan.
What's going on? They're already like this before they're even married?
What would happen if they got married?
Is his brother really that bad?
Thinking this, Lu Baichuan looked him up and down with great suspicion. He was quite tall and seemed capable, so why was he like this?
Could it be that it's all bark and no bite?
Upon reflection, Lu Baichuan understood and cast a sympathetic glance at Qin Jian.
I never expected my brother to be so useless. I must take better care of him in the future; it's not easy for him.
Well, I wonder if his wife's medical skills can save him?
I'll find an opportunity to persuade my brother not to avoid seeking medical help; his health is the most important thing.
Qin Jian was filled with melancholy, wondering what Peng Yuan meant and why she suddenly stopped talking to him. Could it be that she was taking revenge on him for not contacting her all these years?
Just as he was thinking this, he felt a strong gaze on him. When he looked up, he saw Lu Baichuan's sympathetic gaze.
"Wait, what kind of look is that?"
Qin Jian was annoyed. Although Lu Baichuan hadn’t said anything, he knew that the kid definitely didn’t appreciate his kindness!
Lu Baichuan patted his shoulder with a sympathetic look and said, "It's okay, brother will definitely help you."
Hmm, we need to think of a good way that can both save face for our brother and cure his problem!
Qin Jian was even more confused, but Lu Baichuan walked forward after saying that, leaving Qin Jian standing there with a head full of question marks.
If he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it. He shook his head, flicked his whip lightly, and sped up to catch up.
Meanwhile, Jiang Jiuniang had been teaching Peng Yuan how to sew with pigskin for the past few days. Peng Yuan went from being afraid to touch it at first, to now rolling up her sleeves and getting ready to work as soon as she saw pigskin. She could complete the tasks assigned by Jiang Jiuniang in no time. Jiang Jiuniang knew that pigskin was no longer enough to keep up with Peng Yuan's learning pace.
So Jiang Jiuniang took Peng Yuan to the prison, brought out Xun Wang and several wicked officials, made a cut on each of them, and then had Peng Yuan sew them back together.
There are some differences between pigskin and real wounds. When Peng Yuan first saw it, she was so frightened that she turned pale and didn't dare to go forward for a long time, with Xun Wang's cursing voice all she could hear.
"You beast! You're a beast! Is this how you treat your own father!"
Without saying a word, Jiang Jiuniang grabbed a smelly rag and stuffed it into his mouth. Then she turned around and smiled gently at Peng Yuan, saying, "Come on, do whatever you want."
Anyway, she'll be watching from the sidelines, so I guarantee no one will get killed.
Peng Yuan knew about the relationship between Xun Wang and Jiang Jiu Niang, and for a moment she really couldn't bring herself to do it.
Jiang Jiuniang didn't urge her, and started eating melon seeds on the side.
Peng Yuan was quite determined. She took a deep breath and started rolling up her sleeves. She squatted down in front of Xun Wang, took out the relevant tools from the medicine box that Jiang Jiu Niang had given her, and then closed her eyes to cheer herself up.
"This is pork, this is pork, don't be afraid!"
Because they were close by, they could hear Xun Wang clearly: !!
The little apprentice I haven't officially recognized yet is so cute!
Jiang Jiuniang wanted to laugh, but she held it back. She was about to become a master, so she had to be serious.
Peng Yuan picked it up quickly, seemingly treating Xun Wang like a piece of pork. Recalling the steps Jiang Jiuniang had taught her, she took it one step at a time.
Xun Wang didn't dare to move. Even though he was in so much pain that he was about to faint, he didn't move at all. He knew that this little girl was a novice, and if he moved around and messed things up, he would be the one who suffered.
Peng Yuan had a solid foundation in her skills, and after calming down, she quickly finished stitching the wound, much to Xun Wang's relief.
That's horrible, absolutely horrible! He's about to wet his pants!
Seeing that he was sensible enough, Jiang Jiuniang didn't make things difficult for him anymore and got up to go and find the next person.
Everyone's wounds are different. Sword wounds, arrow wounds, knife wounds, burns, and scalds come one after another, allowing Peng Yuan to accumulate different experiences.
This operation, which was originally just meant for Peng Yuan to practice, unexpectedly yielded some positive results.
Some people couldn't take it anymore and even revealed some information that hadn't been asked before, such as where they hid money or who they associated with.
The jailer next to him quickly wrote it down so that he could report it later and investigate, and he would not let any of the criminals slip through the net.
After a busy day in the prison, it was already afternoon when they came out. Jiang Jiuniang took Peng Yuan to eat street food.
Peng Yuan didn't mind at all and ate with great relish.
Jiang Jiuniang couldn't help but sigh, "Yuanyuan, you really are something else. You look like a rather aloof young lady from a prominent family, but you're so down-to-earth."
"Sister Jiu Niang, you're the same way!"
Jiang Jiuniang is quite a beauty. She made an appearance at a teahouse last time, and there are still people selling her portrait on the street. She looks like a cold and aloof fairy who doesn't care about worldly affairs. Who would have thought that she is more manly than any man in private?
Hearing her say that, Jiang Jiuniang laughed heartily: "Isn't that a coincidence? Otherwise, how could we play together?"
Honestly, if Jiang Jiuniang hadn't genuinely thought this girl was someone she could get along with, even with the Empress's intervention, she might not have agreed to take her along. Making friends is all about fate.
"Yeah, I really regret not meeting you sooner, hehe!"
Peng Yuan was eating with her head down when a resentful voice suddenly came from above her head: "What are you doing here?"
