"Old Cao, close the doors and windows."
Jin Jinzhi glanced at Yun Duoduo and ordered Cao Canjun to close the window.
The maids and servants who usually served them were eating hot pot and barbecue next door, so he had to order Cao Canjun to close the windows.
Without a second thought, Cao Canjun stood up upon hearing Jin Jinzhi's words, licked the bits of meat and oil off his fingers, walked behind Yun Duoduo and closed the bed, then walked to the door of the front hall and closed it.
Yun Duoduo was somewhat surprised as she watched Cao Canjun's series of fluid movements. It seemed that he had been ordered around by Jin Jinzhi quite a bit, and the Zhenbei Army was indeed very obedient.
"Ninth Aunt, do you have a cold?"
When Yun Shaomu heard Yun Duoduo sneeze, he was very worried. He looked up at Yun Duoduo, frowned, and reached out with difficulty to touch her forehead.
Yun Duoduo felt Yun Shaomu's oily hand on her forehead. She wanted to dodge but was afraid of hurting her second nephew's feelings, so she didn't dodge, and an oily handprint appeared on her forehead.
Yun Shaoyuan put down his chopsticks and looked at Yun Duoduo with concern. The food that had smelled so good just now suddenly didn't taste good anymore.
Both children suddenly lost their appetite and couldn't eat anymore.
"It's alright, Aunt Jiu is in good health, she'll be fine after a good night's sleep!"
Seeing the worried expressions on her two nephews' faces, Yun Duoduo comforted them.
Yun Shaoyuan and Yun Shaomu exchanged a glance, their eyes meeting, and then they understood what the other was thinking.
It was getting late, and they needed to leave early to give Aunt Jiu and Uncle Jiu some private space.
Yun Shaomu pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his mouth, and blinked his big eyes at Jin Jinzhi and Yun Duoduo. "Ninth Aunt, Ninth Uncle, we're done eating."
After saying that, he jumped off the stool.
Jin Jinzhi was slightly surprised, as he rarely heard the two princes call him Ninth Uncle.
Yun Shaoyuan bowed slightly to Jin Jinzhi and Yun Duoduo, then jumped off the stool.
"Goodbye, Aunt and Uncle!"
The two children waved to the adults present and then left the front hall.
"These two children."
Yun Duoduo glanced at the guards standing outside the door and signaled them to escort the two of them safely back to Prince Rui's residence.
Cao Canjun and Hong Qiu'er exchanged a glance and stood up to take their leave.
Although they were engrossed in the delicious food while eating, they could also notice the prince's gaze towards the princess was almost languid. The two of them couldn't be the ones to dangle that glaring light from the princess.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, we have finished eating. Thank you for your hospitality."
With that, the two bowed and left the front hall.
Jin Jinzhi took a sip of osmanthus wine, looked at Yun Duoduo, and asked, "Why is Your Highness in such a good mood today?"
He was still thinking about how she had turned on him last night.
"Oh dear, Sumire-nii-san..."
Yun Duoduo held Jin Jinzhi's hand and looked at him with her big, blinking eyes.
"What happened yesterday was my fault, but you know, I was just jealous!"
Jin Jinzhi patted Yun Duoduo's head and pulled her into her arms.
"I understand. It was my fault. From now on, I will not hide anything from you."
He lowered his head and gently placed a kiss on Yun Duoduo's forehead.
"By the way, Grandmother's birthday is coming up soon, this month. Have you thought about preparing any gifts?"
"Of course I'm ready!"
"In ten days, it will be the Empress Dowager's birthday, and we will all be going to the palace to offer our congratulations."
"Brother Jinzhi, don't worry, I will definitely heal your leg in ten days!"
Yun Duoduo patted her chest and gave her a guarantee.
Let's go!
Yun Duoduo pushed the wheelchair into the bedroom, closed the doors and windows, drew the curtains, and prepared to begin the treatment.
"Ready to begin!"
Yun Duoduo felt every cell in her body was activated, and she seemed to have returned to the 21st century as the chief surgeon.
The two didn't exchange many words, and the atmosphere in the air was somewhat tense.
"Ahem, Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered that there is important business to attend to in the military camp."
Jin Jinzhi broke the silence, cleared her throat, and looked somewhat unnatural. She then pushed the wheelchair away.
"What urgent matter could it be so late at night?"
Yun Duoduo pulled the wheelchair back, stopping Jin Jinzhi from leaving. She had just finished concentrating and was about to begin when Jin Jinzhi interrupted her.
He was just enjoying himself at the dinner table, chatting and laughing with Cao Canjun and Hong Qiu'er, and he didn't seem worried at all. Why did he suddenly become anxious when the topic of treating his leg came up?
"Jin Jinzhi, are you scared?"
Yun Duoduo lowered her head and asked him, her smile as beautiful as a flower.
What do you mean by that?!
Jin Jinzhi retorted with an unfriendly tone. He was somewhat embarrassed by Yun Duoduo's question. As the dignified General of Nanyang, he had never been afraid of anything in his life!
"Then sit down and cooperate with me."
Yun Duoduo pressed down on his shoulder.
"Last time in the palace, the poison in your body was completely removed. This time, we're just here to check you out and do some repairs. Don't feel too much pressure."
Yun Duoduo gently comforted him. At this moment, he was her patient, and she needed to do her best to calm him down in the face of his anxiety.
Yun Duoduo put on gloves and a mask, blew out the candles in the room, and pushed Jin Jinzhi into the operating room inside the medical system.
The operating room had a faint smell of disinfectant, and it was all white and very quiet.
Jin Jinzhi stared wide-eyed at the white walls, the clean and tidy single operating table covered with blue sheets, the dazzling light shining overhead, and the various tools and medicines on the cart next to her.
The scene before him was completely unfamiliar; many things he had never seen before seemed to belong to this continent.
"This is?"
"This is the operating room, a place specifically for surgical procedures."
Jin Jinzhi was still very surprised. He had previously thought that Yun Duoduo was a disciple of a sect like Ghost Doctor, which was why she would use some strange and unusual things and tools. But judging from the current situation, it was probably not just a matter of a certain sect.
He stared at her intently, waiting for her to explain.
“You’ve seen the instruments I used when I was treating patients and performing surgery back in the military camp.”
Yun Duoduo scratched her head, unsure how to explain.
"Um."
Jin Jinzhi nodded. He had seen the needle-like object before; she had called it a syringe.
"Also, when I was a child, at Fushuang Palace, I was treating Jin Zhuangzhuang and feeding him medicine a few times, and I always felt like there was a pair of eyes watching me."
"Did you see it all from that time onwards?"
Over a decade ago, when Jin Zhuangzhuang and she shared a bed, she used her first-aid kit to treat his cystitis.
