Shen Zhong turned around and looked at the sallow and thin women surrounding Imperial Physician Xu. He said to Li Yu, “Madam Li, don’t worry. I’ll get someone to pay attention to them. Besides, it will take some time to draw the bandits they remember.”
Li Yu nodded and said, “I’ll thank the two of you on their behalf.”
After Imperial Physician Xu took a look at them, he realized that their bodies were very deficient. Moreover, all of them were seriously ill. If they were not treated in time, it would greatly affect their lives.
Looking at these pitiful women and two girls who were only in their teens, Imperial Physician Xu felt pity for them.
Fortunately, when His Majesty sent them over, the Empress Dowager found out and said that these women’s bodies would definitely be deficient and there would be all kinds of illnesses. She instructed them to bring enough medicinal herbs.
After Imperial Physician Xu took a look at them, he prescribed a prescription and recorded their pulses. He said to Ah Lian and the others, “I’ll prepare the medicine for you later. There are internal and external uses for those medicines. I’ll explain clearly and you have to take these medicines on time. I’ll come back to change the prescription for you in half a month.”
Ah Lian, Yang Liu, and the others looked at Imperial Physician Xu uneasily.
“Doctor Xu, we don’t have a single cent now. Can you wait for me…”
Imperial Physician Xu raised his hand and interrupted Ah Lian. He said gently, “Sister-in-law, you don’t have to worry about the money for the medicine. When we came, His Majesty and the Empress Dowager instructed us to prepare the herbs. Take all the medicine for your treatment from the imperial hospital.”
Ah Lian and the women were extremely excited when they heard that. “His Majesty and the Empress Dowager asked you to treat us and even bought medicine for us Ki. Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Empress Dowager.”
Imperial Physician Xu smiled and nodded. “Just treat the illness in peace and live a good life.”
When Yang Liu and the others heard this, they nodded happily. “Thank you, Doctor Xu. We’ll remember.”
After Imperial Physician Chen took a look at Yingtao and Hongmei, he said to the two of them, “After your leg bones were broken, you didn’t receive timely treatment. The bones inside are dislocated, causing you to be unable to stand.
If you can endure the pain, I can break the broken parts and reattach them. When the bones heal again, although you won’t be able to carry weight, at least it won’t affect your walking. You can still do some not light housework.”
Hong Mei’s eyes turned red when she heard that. She thought to herself that if she could really treat her leg, she would be willing to bear with the pain and end the days when she had to rely on others to go to the latrine.
Ying Tao looked at Doctor Chen and said firmly, “No matter how painful it is,
I’m willing to bear it.”
Hong Mei looked at Imperial Physician Chen with a strong gaze. “Doctor Chen, I’m not afraid of pain. As long as I can walk, I can endure it no matter how painful it is.”
Doctor Chen looked at the two of them and nodded. “Alright, since you have the courage, I’ll definitely do my best to treat you.”
The two of them replied firmly, “We have the courage.”
When Ah Lian and Yang Liu heard this, they hugged the two of them excitedly.
“That’s great. Your legs can be treated too. That’s really great.’
The sisters held hands and smiled until their faces were covered in tears. Everyone looked at these unyielding women gratefully and sincerely hoped that they would be able to live a stable life.
Doctor Chen glanced at Hu Cheng, Ji Xiang, and the others standing at the door of the courtyard and waved at them. “Strong men, which one of you has stable hands? Help me break their bones again so that I can rectify their bones.”
The few of them walked up to Imperial Physician Chen. Hu Cheng pushed Ruyi. “Brother Yi, you’re the most reliable. It’s best if you do it.”
Ruyi pondered for a moment and nodded. “Okay.”
Ying Tao sat on a chair. Ruyi said to Li Yu, who had come from the granary,
“Madam, please stabilize this sister-in-law.”
Li Yu walked over and saw Ying Tao sitting on a chair with a determined expression. Imperial Physician Chen hurriedly explained to Li Yu. Li Yu nodded and let Yingt Tao sit on the stool. She took a handkerchief and folded it. She let Yingtao hold it and hugged her from behind.
Imperial Physician Chen lifted Ying Tao’s trouser leg and made a mark in the dislocated spot with ink. He nodded at Ruyi. “Steward Zhou, this is the spot.”
Ruyi touched the spot and hit Ying Tao when she wasn’t looking. Yingtao screamed and fainted.
Imperial Physician Chen took advantage of her unconsciousness to help her reattach the dislocated bones. Ying Tao woke up from the pain again. Li Yu controlled her and made her unable to move at all. Ying Tao’s face was pale from the pain, and cold sweat flowed down her hair like water.
Ying Tao fainted again.
Imperial Physician Chen nimbly tied two thin wooden planks to Yingtao’s leg and wrapped them in cloth to secure them. He said to Li Yu, “Madam Li, please carry her in and let her sleep. Don’t touch her leg.”
Li Yu nodded in agreement and carried Ying Tao into the house in the backyard. She carefully placed them on the bed.
Looking at the thin wooden board tied to Ying Tao’s leg, she thought about how one wouldn’t have to worry about his leg getting injured again after plastering the broken leg in the hospital in her previous life.
After reattaching Hong Mei’s leg and carrying her back to the bed to rest, Li Yu went back and said to Imperial Physician Chen, “Imperial Physician Chen, I want to ask you if you can wrap their legs with something clay-like. This way, we won’t be afraid of hurting their legs again.”
“Use something in the shape of clay.” Imperial Physician Chen’s hand that was writing the prescription stopped. He thought for a moment and nodded with a smile. “Madam Li’s idea is interesting. I’ll go back and try it. If it really works, I’ll come and thank you again.”
Imperial Physician Xu and Imperial Physician Chen were busy brewing medicine for Ah Lian and the others. A few women went up to help. Some even went to the kitchen to cook.
Shen Zhong and Sun Tong brought people to carry the weapons in the secret room to the carriage. Ah Lian, Yang Liu, and the others were stunned when they saw the cold weapons.
San Qiao was stunned for a moment before pulling Yang Liu back. “Where did so many knives and spears come from?”
“I think it was hidden by those evil thieves,” Yang Liu said through gritted teeth.
Ah Lian said hatefully, “We work during the day and are locked in that straw house over there at night. How would we know what the evil thieves are doing in the farm?”
Li Yu recalled that Ruyi had not distributed the things he had bought to them. She walked up to them. “Ah Lian, follow me.”
Ever since Imperial Physician Chen reattached Hong Mei’s bones, Ah Lian’s heart felt like a huge rock had been lifted of her heart. When she heard Li Yu call her, she looked at Li Yu with a smile. “Madam Li…
Li Yu brought them to the handcart and removed the oilcloth tied to it with them.
Ah Lian looked at the cloth, cotton, mosquito net, and some other tools in the car. She looked at Li Yu. “Madam Li, this is…”
Li Yu handed the bag of ready-made clothes above to Ah Lian. “You’re going to be busy farming soon. You don’t have the time to make clothes, so I asked Ruyi to buy some ready-made clothes for you and some clothes and bedding. Move them into the house and share them with the sisters..”
