Chapter 55 My Little Pet
At that time, Dingxiang was brought before the young master as his savior.
The young master glanced at them and dismissed them, his eyes filled with coldness.
When Lu Qingqing was taken away, he didn't tell her to leave, but instead thanked him.
In short, Lu Qingqing is different.
Mo Lang wanted to take her back.
Lu Qingqing didn't want to go, but she was afraid that it wouldn't look good if someone saw such a big guy kneeling there.
Okay, I'll go.
"Can you take my little apprentice with you?"
"able."
Lu Qingqing not only brought Si Xi along, but also her father.
There was no other way; Old Man Lu insisted on going along, otherwise he wouldn't feel at ease.
Fu Leng was incredibly enthusiastic when he saw Lu Qingqing; his savior had arrived!
He went on and on, recounting in great detail the affairs of his young master.
I mentioned how many times I went to the toilet, how much water I drank, how many strands of hair I lost, and whether I felt any coldness after showering.
Lu Qingqing's gaze toward him grew increasingly strange.
What she didn't know was that Fu Leng was also too experienced.
We consulted too many doctors, and each one asked a bunch of strange and unusual questions.
So he says whatever comes to mind now.
"Also, Miss Lu... it seems my young master has lost his sense of taste again. I gave him those two special candies you gave me, but he vomited them up..."
What special sugar? It's just regular sugar!
That day, this guy insisted on buying it, and she asked for one tael of silver.
"Fu Leng, Mo Lang, who gave you these names? They're reversed!"
It's so noisy.
He's not as good as Mo Lang, who's half-mute.
"Alright, alright, stop talking."
Besides, his son's behavior was practically the same as running around naked.
Lu Qingqing accepted the carefully prepared nourishing meal and went inside.
Fu Leng, as his inseparable attendant, also followed behind.
Xu Rui was gazing absently at the leaves outside the window when a patch of blue suddenly caught his eye.
Lu Qingqing, dressed in a blue dress with white flowers, strode over.
Just like the hazy blue sky and white clouds I saw earlier, they slowly took on a real shape in my eyes.
He instinctively sat up straight, his gaze following her movements with a hint of interest.
Fu Leng breathed a sigh of relief.
The young master didn't blame him for acting on his own; perhaps his eyesight was failing again, as his eyeballs remained motionless.
"I heard you're not eating properly again. To be honest, do you have a death wish?" Lu Qingqing said bluntly.
Fu Leng: "..."
Is it too late to get her out now?
Xu Rui lowered his eyes, seemingly in agreement.
Lu Qingqing knew she hadn't misread it; Xu Rui thought he was beyond saving, and he also didn't want to live.
When the wolf tried to eat him, he paused, clearly sensing something was amiss.
A person who doesn't want to live is actually thinking about saving others.
This is why Lu Qingqing advised him.
Otherwise, someone who wouldn't take responsibility for their own life wouldn't waste their time.
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but how can you bear to die when you have people who love you by your side? That would be too selfish."
Those who love him?
Where is it?
A look of self-mockery and desolation flashed in Xu Rui's eyes.
"Even a mayfly, which lives only a day, knows to break through the mud and sand, emerge from the water, and complete its short life's mission. You, on the other hand, don't want to live after experiencing a little setback. Aren't you ashamed?"
Although, but...
Fu Leng couldn't help but interject again: "Can you please stop comparing my young master to that kind of low-class stuff?"
Besides, what mission could those brainless worms possibly have?
There's no difference between being alive and being dead.
Lu Qingqing wanted to beat this guy to death. Was she supposed to persuade him to live or to die?
"How can it not have a mission? Even the most primitive creature has its reason for existence!"
What does it mean?
"Procreation! We are born for this one thing, otherwise we would be wiped out and have no descendants."
And you? You reproduce and then seek death? In the long river of time, who isn't just a tiny mayfly?
"..."
That's very direct and blunt.
Fu Leng was furious that his young master was thought of as so shallow and vulgar.
But there's some truth to that.
The young master should leave behind an heir...
Only after Lu Qingqing finished speaking did she realize that there was still a problem in the relationship between the three of them, master and servant.
It seems the approach to persuasion is wrong.
But Fu Leng said, "What you say makes sense."
Lu Qingqing coughed: "That's right. As long as you're alive, you don't have to worry about not having descendants."
"That makes sense."
The person on the bed glanced at Fu Leng coldly and said, "Get out."
Fu Leng got out of there.
Xu Rui picked up the bowl in front of him and finished eating quickly but elegantly.
I didn't eat the soft and sticky pumpkin cake on the plate, nor did I eat the milk custard with red dates.
Does he not like sweets?
Impossible, it must be an act.
"May I ask you a question, young lady?" Xu Rui asked.
His voice was clear and pleasant, like the sound of a forest and a spring; his movements were fluid and graceful, and his good manners could not be concealed even by his weakness.
It has nothing to do with being fat or thin; with a perfect skeleton, even a skeleton can look like a human.
If you're also good-looking, then you're truly blessed, a masterpiece of nature.
Lu Qingqing thought to herself.
It's quite pleasing to the eye.
I met the county magistrate that day, and he didn't seem particularly outstanding. How could he have raised such a good son?
"Go ahead and ask."
"Does your mother's surname include Shui?"
"Water? No. Why do you ask?"
Because of the past incident where her mother was framed, Lu Qingqing was afraid it would cause trouble, so she did not reveal her mother's name.
"It's nothing... You look a lot like someone I used to know."
"oh."
Lu Qingqing didn't take it seriously.
There are so many similar people in the world, all with the same nose and two eyes, there's no need for so many fancy tricks.
"Take off your pants."
"..."
The man's eyes widened slightly as he looked at Lu Qingqing, as if to confirm what he had heard.
"That's right, I'm just asking you to take your clothes off. Don't worry, it's just your outer pants."
"Your leg must have been broken before. Although it's been set, it didn't heal properly, leaving behind blood clots. I need to give you a blood transfusion to ensure proper blood circulation throughout your body."
Once she explained, Xu Rui understood.
"Young lady...you have a good eye."
Hey! She knew it not just because of her eyesight.
They stripped her naked the first time they saw her.
They stripped her completely naked, and I saw the whole thing!
Both of his legs had been broken, and there was a ring of bruises three inches above his knees.
Oh no.
It's already quite good that he hasn't become eccentric.
Xu Rui looked at Lu Qingqing's serious face, lowered his eyelids, and slowly took off his pants.
Two slender, straight, white legs were exposed.
Her awkward hand landed on the edge of her underwear, as if that would cover her up a little more.
Lu Qingqing didn't look, but bent down and opened her medicine box.
"Let me show you my little pet."
She held a long, thin, curved black object between her index finger and thumb and waved it in front of Xu Rui's eyes.
It is alive.
Xu Rui wasn't scared; he just paused for a moment.
"Horse leech".
"Oh, you know him?"
Lu Qingqing thought that a young master like him would never have the chance to meet such disgusting things.
“Before, in the irrigation canal…” Xu Rui didn’t finish his sentence.
"Don't worry, I've been raising these leeches for almost a month now, and their bellies are all cleaned out."
Lu Qingqing made a small incision on each of the bruises on his legs, and then placed two leeches on them.
There are two treatments using leeches. One is to grind them into powder, which can cleanse the blood of impurities and promote blood circulation.
However, people with blood deficiency and weak constitution should not take it.
Then there's this live leech therapy.
