Chapter 33: Saving the Villain
Qin Huiyin first boiled some water and used the cooled warm water to clean the wounds on his body.
While wiping, she observed Song Ruize's reaction. When she saw him frowning and groaning in pain, she lowered her head and blew on his wound, trying to relieve his pain.
“You’re really asking for your life.”
"You feel the pain now? It's too late!"
Qin Huiyin complained, but her hands moved lighter and lighter.
After she cleaned the blood off his body, she searched the room but couldn't find any clean cloth, so she had to tear off the lining of her dress.
She bandaged the wound with a cloth, covered him with clean clothes, then took his sickle, carried his backpack and went up the mountain to collect herbs.
As soon as she left, Song Ruize, who was lying there, opened his eyes.
He just woke up.
When he just regained consciousness, he heard Qin Huiyin's complaints. He was rarely angry, but pretended to be ignorant and let her do whatever she wanted.
He tried to sit up, but his abdomen ached and blood gushed out of the wound again.
When he felt the wet blood and smelled the bloody smell in the air, he suddenly had the idea of "let's just end it like this".
Qin Huiyin was gone for a short while and soon returned with fresh herbs.
She cleaned the herbs and divided them into two parts, half for external application and half for internal consumption.
She first fried the medicine for internal use in a pan, and then crushed the medicine for external use with a wooden hammer.
She returned to Song Ruize's room with the crushed medicinal mud.
"You are lucky to have met me. Let's make a deal. I saved you, so when you wake up, please don't scare me. I am timid and cannot stand being scared."
"You lost your mother when you were young, and now you've lost your father. No one likes you, but you are you. Why do you need others to like you? You have to take care of your body."
"This medicine is a little bit cold, it won't hurt once you apply it."
Qin Huiyin applied medicine to Song Ruize and bandaged him again. When she saw that the cloth strips were soaked, she tore off the lining of the skirt again.
She went back to the kitchen, took out some of the firewood from the stove, and turned the high fire down to low to fry slowly.
While waiting, Qin Huiyin looked at the messy kitchen, hesitated for a moment, and then started to clean it up.
As someone who often stays in the kitchen, seeing such a dirty and messy kitchen really tortures her, who has obsessive-compulsive disorder and mysophobia.
After the medicine was boiled, she chilled it with well water.
She returned to Song Ruize's bedside and saw that he had woken up. She put down the medicine bowl and stepped back a few steps. She said sincerely, "I found you fainted at the door, so I carried you in. I know a little about herbal medicine. Seeing that you had a fever and were injured and needed to control your condition immediately, I took the initiative to go and collect herbs. If you don't want to drink it, then you don't have to drink it. I just don't want to see you die in your own home for Uncle Song's sake. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Song Ruize looked at Qin Huiyin who ran away like a mouse seeing a cat and sneered.
His eyes rested on the medicine bowl not far away.
The pain from the wound on his abdomen was indeed less severe. He clearly felt that the wound was no longer bleeding, so the bleeding must have stopped.
Of course he drinks.
The mother and daughter ate and used his father's things. They even ordered him around for a year and even sold all his land when they were leaving. Now they are just making medicine for him. What's wrong with him drinking it?
As for whether he was worried about her doing something, that was not even within his consideration. She took great pains to clean his wounds, bandage them, and pick herbs to boil, was it just to poison him? She shouldn't be such a fool, right?
Song Ruize moved to the bedside, stretched out his arm and grabbed the medicine bowl.
He lowered his head and smelled it, and the unpleasant smell of medicine made him frown.
Qin Huiyin came back and saw his disgusted expression. She said, "Good medicine tastes bitter. Your wounds are festering and need anti-inflammation. By the way, I will buy you a bottle of trauma medicine when I go to the city to sell goods tomorrow. Also, you are injured like this now, you probably can't cook, I will bring you food later. Just think of it as me feeling guilty about what happened before and wanting to make it up to you. Don't blame my mother, she took me wandering for a long time, and the first thing she thought of when something happened was to avoid risks."
"I know this is unfair to you. I want to make up for the mistakes my mother made. Of course, the premise is that you don't mind. If you don't like it, just ignore what I said."
Qin Huiyin really left this time.
There was a flash of disdain in Song Ruize's eyes.
What did it have to do with him that her mother had taken her on a wandering trip for so long? Why should that old man bear the consequences of the suffering that the mother and daughter had endured?
However, the old man was blinded by lust and could not resist the temptation of women, so it cannot be entirely blamed on the mother and daughter.
Qin Huiyin walked on the country road, lowered her head and smelled the smell on her sleeves, frowned and said, "This smell is too bad."
"Don't come over here...don't..."
Qin Huiyin felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, and the content also sounded strange, like a classic scene that was often seen in TV dramas.
She followed the sound and saw a fat, big-eared man harassing Tang Luwu who was pulling weeds in the vegetable garden.
Tang Luwu was thin, how could she be a match for that man? She was pinned down by the fat man, who even tried to nibble on her ear.
Qin Huiyin was extremely angry. He picked up the stick on the ground and swung it at the man's back.
Bang!
The man screamed in pain and got up. He turned around and looked at Qin Huiyin, cursing, "Who are you? What does it have to do with you if I'm being intimate with my wife?"
Tang Luwu cried and hid behind Qin Huiyin.
Qin Huiyin cursed viciously: "You are talking nonsense. This is my sister, how come I don't know when she became your daughter-in-law?"
The fat man then looked at Qin Huiyin, his gaze lingering on the more fully developed part, his eyes full of greed.
"You are prettier than your sister. Why don't I marry you instead of her?"
Qin Huiyin swung the stick again.
The fat man was beaten and screamed, and the thought he had just had disappeared, leaving only anger.
"Your mother has already married her to me. My mother and the matchmaker are discussing the wedding date at your house. She will marry me sooner or later. What's wrong with me kissing her in advance?"
"Yinyin, stop hitting me." Tang Luwu grabbed Qin Huiyin, who was about to go crazy, and cried, "Maybe what he said is true."
She had met Qian who came to propose marriage, and she had also overheard the conversation between Qian and Li Taohua. Previously, Li Taohua complained that the betrothal gift was too little and had not agreed. This time, the family was in urgent need of money, and it was time for her, a money-loser, to contribute to the family. Perhaps this time she would really get married.
Qin Huiyin took Tang Luwu's hand and said, "I don't believe it. Let's go home and take a look."
As she said this, she swung at the fat man again.
The fat man stepped back in fright and sat down on the ground, his eyes full of fear of her.
Crazy woman!
She's just a crazy woman.
He wanted to marry this shrew and beat her three times a day to avenge his hatred.
