After everyone left, Tian Cai said, "You can take it off now."
"Oh, that's the big deal. He's my son, my biological son. I've seen him countless times since he was a child. Why should I be so particular?" Hu Xiaohong curled her lips indifferently, thinking that the Tian Cai people were not troublesome at all.
"I don't care what you do at home. When a female patient of mine is seeing a doctor, no one else can see her except her husband and wife." Tian Cai was too lazy to correct her concept. Not to mention the people at that time, even in later generations, there were many mothers who did not pay attention to their children's education in this aspect, resulting in their children having no gender awareness even when they were in their teens.
Tian Cai used to have a colleague in the archives. One day when she went to get something, she heard her complaining to someone that her child was fourteen years old and had not seen any growth, and she didn't know when he would grow up. Tian Cai asked her curiously how she knew there was no growth. She said that her son was naked at home every day, walking around naked, with his thing exposed. Of course, it could be seen at a glance. She said that the size was no different from when he was a child.
Moreover, her son is fourteen years old and still sleeps in the same bed with his mother, even sleeping naked.
Tian Cai has also seen the son of that colleague. The 14-year-old boy has grown to 1.85 meters. It is hard to imagine what a 1.85-meter-tall boy looks like running naked at home every day.
Tian Cai really didn't know what to say. This kind of thing would not make people think that the relationship between you mother and son is very good, but would only make people think that this family might have some serious illness.
She examined Hu Xiaohong's body and found no wounds that broke the skin. Most of them were bruises from being hit or pinched. Tian Cai took her pulse just in case and confirmed that they were only flesh wounds. "It's nothing serious. I'll give you a bottle of medicinal wine for injuries. Just go back and rub the bruises away."
Hu Xiaohong looked down at the bruise on her chest and couldn't help cursing again, "This black-hearted bastard, look at how her family beat me. They even picked this place to pinch me, and now they want me to pay for her recovery. Bah, why should I pay?"
Tian Cai ignored her and continued to treat Wang Songhua's injuries.
Wang Songhua's injuries were mainly concentrated on her head, while her body only had some minor bruises. Tian Cai carefully examined her wounds and found that they were not as serious as Hu Xiaohong said. Although her scalp was indeed torn off, only part of the scalp was pulled.
After she cleaned the blood near the wound, she could clearly see that the torn wound was about five centimeters. The other side of the wound was just missing a lot of hair, exposing the scalp. Now with the scab over the wound, it didn't look so scary anymore.
"You'd better go to the hospital to get a few stitches. A few stitches will help the wound heal." Tian Cai asked Hu Xiaohong to come and look at Wang Songhua's wound, then pointed to the gaping hole. "This isn't the whole scalp torn off as you think. As long as this part heals, it'll be fine. If you apply some medicine, it will heal as well, but it will take longer."
"Mom..." Wang Songhua looked at her mother eagerly. She wanted to go to the county to get stitches, but she was afraid her mother would not agree. She hadn't found a partner yet!
Hu Xiaohong rolled her eyes and asked, "Can it heal without stitches?"
"Yes, it can," Tian Cai said honestly, "but the scars from wounds that heal on their own will be wider, and hair won't grow on scars."
When Hu Xiaohong heard Tian Cai say that only the scar had no hair, she breathed a sigh of relief and decided, "Just apply the medicine directly!"
Wang Songhua looked at her mother in disbelief, "Mother——"
Hu Xiaohong waved her hand. "What are you afraid of? Scars will remain, even with stitches. At worst, you can just part your hair to the other side, and that'll cover it up. Who knows how much it'll cost to go to the county. You know how much our family has been tormented by that heartless woman today. How can we afford your medical treatment? The money we save will go to your dowry!"
After hearing this, Wang Songhua's expression became better and she nodded in agreement with her mother.
Tian Cai raised an eyebrow when she heard this. She had just thought she had misheard Gao Huijuan mentioning the family split. So, was it really splitting up? Hadn't she stubbornly refused to agree before? She wondered how that mama's boy Wang Songbai had agreed to it.
After treating the wound on Wang Songhua's head, the mother and daughter left Wang Songbai and went home. The remaining one also had minor injuries on his body. As usual, Tian Cai gave him a small bottle of medicinal wine and asked him to pay for the medicine for the three of them.
"I--" Wang Songbai stammered, wanting to say something but unable to open his mouth.
Tian Cai pretended not to see it and continued to clean up the medicine box that had just been messed up.
Wang Songbai gritted his teeth and said, "At the beginning, I—"
"Doctor Tian," Qin Ling suddenly appeared at the door of the pharmacy. Seeing Wang Songbai, who was hesitant to speak, a dark glint flashed in his eyes. "The mountain cat is back, and it seems to be injured."
When Tian Cai heard this, he could no longer stay and threw away what he was holding and rushed out.
Wang Songbai opened his mouth at the back, but the stinging pain from the corner of his mouth made him hiss. He reached out to touch it, but when he looked up again, Tian Cai was gone, so he could only leave in disappointment.
Tian Cai saw Mimi limping in the backyard. The little guy's hind legs seemed to be bitten by something and were bleeding. She hurriedly squatted down and checked it up and down, making sure that there were only blood stains on its body and no other wounds. Then she carefully checked the wound on its hind legs.
"Be good, I'll just take a look." Tian Cai reached out and carefully touched its hind legs. Mimi's hind legs couldn't help but tremble, and it hummed. After she comforted it a few times, it lay down obediently.
"The leg is broken," Tian Cai frowned, "and it's the thigh. We need to put a splint on it right away."
It was already blurry and unclear who was outside, so Tian Cai bent down to pick up the little guy.
"I'll do it." Qin Ling pushed her away, carefully avoiding Mimi's injured hind leg, picked it up with both hands, and walked into the house.
Tian Cai hurried to the front, took both oil lamps and lit them.
Qin Ling put Mimi on the table and went back to the kitchen to get some water. At this moment, Tian Cai had already started. She first took an extremely sharp dagger and shaved off all the hair on Mimi's wound, and then used alcohol to clean it.
The little guy also knew that Tian Cai was saving him, so he didn't make any noise or fuss. He would only look up and whimper occasionally when it was in too much pain.
Tian Cai had treated a red panda's legs before, but at that time, the red panda's legs were injured. This time, Mimi's injury was on the thigh. She felt it carefully and found that it was only broken. After carefully resetting it, she fixed it with a bamboo board and then wrapped it with a cloth strip. "It's done!"
Tian Cai went to the kitchen and got the ceramic basin that Mimi had always used to drink water. He secretly poured dew water into it and handed it to Mimi to drink as if nothing had happened.
Mimi licked it mouthful after mouthful without even raising its head. Tian Cai touched its big head lovingly and said, "It looks like it's really thirsty."
Tian Cai's hand stroked Mimi's head again and again.
She comforted Mimi for a while, then got up and went to prepare dinner with an oil lamp. She had kneaded the noodles at noon and soaked the mushrooms. She planned to steam buns in the evening.
