The brother and sister were rescued, and the little girl knelt in front of Qu Li and kowtowed to her repeatedly to express her gratitude.
Qu Li examined her brother and found that the bandaging technique was very skillful, and that herbal medicine was used to stop the bleeding from the wound.
Her eyes lit up involuntarily. "Do you know herbs?"
"My brother and I often go to the mountains to pick herbs and catch rabbits! Because I get injured so often, I always carry herbs with me. But this trap is too deep. I tried several times but couldn't climb out."
The little girl lowered her head and stared at the ground with a lost look.
Suddenly, she felt a gentle touch on her head.
The little girl looked up suddenly and met Qu Li's eyes that were filled with tenderness and kindness.
"You are very brave! If it weren't for you, your brother would have lost a lot of blood and would be in critical condition."
"But it was because of me that my brother got hurt."
"Okay, don't be afraid, and don't blame yourself, I'm here!"
Qu Li's words were soft, but they made the little girl feel very reassured.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Xiaohong."
Seeing Qu Li treating her brother's wound and taking his pulse skillfully, Xiaohong's eyes sparkled.
"Little brother, are you a doctor?"
"Yeah." Qu Li raised her eyes and smiled gently.
Xiaohong was immediately filled with admiration: "Little brother, you are so amazing! Can I learn medicine from you?"
In fact, judging from her reaction and the way she bandaged the wound, Qu Li could tell that she was very interested in medicine.
And, very talented.
"Yes, if you like, I can teach you."
The little emperor now wishes he were an ordinary person so that he could always be by her side and learn medical skills from her.
After treating Brother Xiaohong's wound, Qu Li fed him some medicine and he slowly opened his eyes.
Facing Qu Li's gentle eyes, he was in a trance for a long time, and murmured in a hoarse voice: "Mom!"
"Brother, did you hit your head? This is my brother, not my mother!"
Brother Xiaohong stared blankly, but still firmly called Qu Li "Mom".
Xiaohong was speechless and apologized to Qu Li.
"Send you home." Qu Li suggested.
"My home is very poor, little brother, please don't despise me."
"Is there anyone else in your family?" Qu Li asked.
She feels that there is indeed such a thing as "attractiveness" between people.
The first time she saw Xiaohong, she liked this little girl very much.
As they got along, she liked Xiaohong more.
"There's not much left at home, just me and my brother."
Qu Li was stunned, and there was a hint of pity in his eyes as he looked at her.
"After my father went to the military camp, there has been no news since then. Some people say that he got into trouble during the previous bandit suppression campaign. My mother took the pension money, but couldn't stand the hardship, so she ran away with someone. Now only my brother and I are left at home."
Qu Li felt a sharp pain in his heart.
That's why she has always hated war.
"If there is a place where you can learn medicine for free and have enough food and clothing, would you like to go?"
Xiaohong paused and looked at her uncertainly.
"Little brother, how could there be such a good place in the world?"
"What if there really is one?"
Xiaohong pursed her lips and thought seriously: "Of course I want to go, but my brother may not like medicine!"
"What if your brother could study something else?"
"Of course!" Xiaohong seemed to have already imagined how wonderful that paradise-like place was. Her big eyes curved into crescents, full of longing.
Qu Li became more determined to establish a medical school.
Moreover, she wants to set up several other classes so that children who have lost their parents can also feel the kindness and warmth in this world.
The little emperor stayed by her side the whole time, listening quietly to her conversation with Xiaohong.
He used to think that Qu Li’s ideas were somewhat too idealistic.
Although doctors are worthy of respect, studying medicine is too hard.
No one would be willing to send their children to study medicine.
Zhuzi wanted to learn medicine because his mother's hands were crippled.
He took a deep look at Qu Li beside him. At this moment, he seemed to see light in her.
Xiaohong pointed to the dilapidated thatched house in front and said, "Brother, this is my home!"
The little emperor stared.
This is not a house!
There was no trace of disgust on Qu Li's face as he walked in.
It just so happened that Chang Sun Wu and his friends had also found a place to stay, and they found this place by following the signs left by Qu Li.
"Tang——"
Chang Sun Lingrui saw the injured brother and sister and quickly shut his mouth.
"Little brother, are they with you?" Xiaohong looked at Changsun Lingrui and Changsun Wu.
"yes."
Xiaohong took a half step back and bowed respectfully to the few people.
Changsun Lingrui and Changsun Wu were confused and turned to look at Qu Li.
Qu Li briefly explained what had just happened, and then she took out a lot of food from the space.
Xiaohong was so excited, "This is the first time I've seen so many delicious foods."
"Cousin, I've already found a place to stay. You don't want to stay here, do you?"
This thatched hut is too simple and has drafts on all sides.
"Third cousin, please help me call the villagers over later. I'll ask if anyone wants to send their children to study medicine."
"Okay!"
Chang Sun Wu knew Qu Li's personality very well. She made such arrangements probably because she was preparing to set off back tonight.
The villagers soon gathered in the open space in the village, discussing why the village chief called them over.
When they saw Qu Li, envy appeared in their eyes.
"Everyone, the reason I came to the village today is to find a child who is good at medicine and willing to learn medicine."
"Are you a doctor?" Someone clearly didn't believe it.
"It's the doctor!"
"Someone came to the village before, saying they wanted to recruit apprentices, but they turned out to be scammers! They lured the children away and sold them to wealthy families as maids. Some were even worse, selling them to brothels!"
Qu Li was stunned, obviously not expecting that someone would cheat like this.
"Don't worry, I'm not a liar."
"The liar doesn't have the word liar written on his face! If you want to cheat people, go to another village, don't try to cheat us!" A slightly fat woman held her child tightly in her arms, looking at Qu Li with eyes that seemed to want to skin her alive.
Xiao Hong didn't want others to misunderstand Qu Li, so she stood up and said, "Little Brother is a very good person! My brother and I fell into a trap, and it was she who brought people to rescue us! Don't talk about Little Brother like that!"
"Little Red, the trap you and Da Zhuang fell into might have been set by them in advance, just to trick innocent kids like you!"
"That's not the case!" Xiaohong was so anxious that she was about to cry.
She wanted to argue with others, but was stopped by Qu Li.
"Little brother, they misunderstood you. Are you going to let them misunderstand you like this?" Xiaohong was so anxious that her eyes turned red. She looked like an anxious rabbit.
