Chapter Thirteen: Be a Husband and Believe in a Wife Once

My stomach growled again.

Shen Yue shook her head, not thinking about Luo Qingjiu and not being hungry for him.

I picked up the bowl and drank half of the mushroom porridge in one go. My stomach felt much better after the porridge.

Shen Yue sipped the remaining half of the bowl and waited for Luo Mu to come back and eat together.

After the two of them finished eating, they cleared the table.

When I looked up, the midday sun was so harsh that I couldn't even open my eyes.

Mother Luo urged Shen Yue to take a nap.

I got up early in the morning and went into the mountains and came back carrying so much stuff. I must be tired. How could I rest without taking a nap?

"Mom, it's okay. I'm in good health. It's okay if I don't take a nap."

Shen Yue turned around and got into the kitchen, took a basin of cold water and soaked the perilla leaves in it.

Before she even started to deal with the nux vomica in the basket, Luo's mother dragged her back to the house.

"Let's rest for a while first, and then we can clean up after waking up in the afternoon. We won't be in a hurry."

Luo's mother had a tough attitude and wanted Shen Yue to rest for a while.

Shen Yue had no choice but to compromise: "Mom, if I don't wake up, remember to call me at 14:30. If it's too late, the effect of Nux Vomica will not be as good."

"Okay, Mom, I will remember it. I will definitely not miss your business. Go and have a rest." Mother Luo pushed Shen Yue into the room and closed the door.

After working all morning, Shen Yue was a little tired to be honest. Looking at Luo Qingjiu who had already rested, she took off her coat stained with mud, gently got into the quilt, and closed her eyes.

After a moment, the sound of even breathing reached Luo Qingjiu's ears, and her dark and deep eyes slowly opened, looking at the sleeping Shen Yue quietly.

This was the first time that he could look at Shen Yue so closely and quietly. The girl's peaceful sleeping face was gentle and harmless, completely different from the arrogant and domineering her before.

He was happy when his mother taught him to marry Shen Yue, but what she did made people dislike her, even disgust her. How much her mother trusted her, but she deceived her over and over again.

He was injured this time because of her.

Luo Qingjiu raised his hand and placed his slightly calloused hand on Shen Yue's neck. Today, he has recovered a lot of strength. As long as he exerts his strength...

"Oh~" Shen Yue groaned in discomfort.

Luo Qingjiu, who heard the sound, quickly took her hand back and gave up the terrible thought just now.

Well, she seemed to have really gotten better since she woke up. She took care of herself when she was injured and bedridden.

Let's trust her for once.

Shen Yue scratched her neck, turned over in a daze and fell asleep again.

Little did she know that she had already been on the verge of life and death once.

...                              …

It's not even two moments.

Shen Yue woke up early before Luo's mother called her, stayed on the bed for a while, got up, put on her coat and left the house.

First, I went into the kitchen and drank a bowl of cold water. I didn't drink water all morning, and my throat was dry and itchy. It was very uncomfortable.

Drinking cold water relieved her thirst and made her completely awake.

Take out the nux vomica in your backpack and start processing it.

Wash them clean and remove the fine silver velvet on the surface. Wrap some immature nux vomica with tree leaves and place them in a corner. They will mature completely in a few days.

There was too much nux vomica, so Shen Yue simply put it all into the big pot on the stove and boiled it.

Luo's mother heard the noise and came in to help, holding firewood to help light the fire.

Shen Yue stirred and Luo Mu added firewood. It took nearly an hour for the whole pot of nux vomica to be cooked.

The nux vomica has precipitated colloid, pick it up with chopsticks, and if it becomes sticky, the ointment is ready.

Shen Yue rummaged through the box and found only five pieces of cloth, including the six pieces Luo Qingjiu had replaced with the medicine she applied yesterday.

Shen Yue was in trouble because there was no extra piece of cloth to hold the ointment.

Such a large pot of ointment cannot be left in the pot all the time!

Suddenly, an idea flashed.

Shen Yue put the lid on the pot and said to Luo's mother: "Mom, please put out the fire first, I'll go out!"

Mother Luo responded and pulled out the firewood. When she looked up again, Shen Yue was gone.

Luo's mother was afraid that the residual heat from the stove ashes would burn Yue'er's ointment.

I took the brazier and cleaned up all the ashes inside the stove, and then simply tidied up the stove room.

After a while, Shen Yue came back holding a large handful of poplar leaves.

Wash the poplar leaves and cut them into long sheets, which are perfect for storing ointment.

Shen Yue first demonstrated to Luo Mu, using chopsticks to pick up the ointment, apply it evenly on the poplar leaves, let it dry for a while, then cover it with a leaf, and completed the production of a piece of "dog skin plaster".

Mother Luo watched Shen Yue make two slices and learned the lesson. She picked up the chopsticks and applied the ointment to the poplar leaves.

It was a little uneven at first, but I got used to it after applying a few patches.

With two people and four hands, a large pot of ointment was made into dog skin plaster in a quarter of an hour.

Shen Yue counted, there were more than seventy pieces!

The poplar leaves are put together up and down to wrap the ointment, which greatly increases the storage time of the ointment.

As long as it is not opened, it will not be a problem to keep it airtight for a month.

The two of them neatly stacked the prepared dog skin plasters in the corner.

After doing this, Shen Yue took a piece of freshly baked plaster and applied it to Luo Qingjiu, and then gave him an injection.

"Ms. sir, try moving your legs." Shen Yue pulled out the last needle and said to Luo Qingjiu.

Luo Qingjiu nodded, concentrated her energy, exerted all her strength, and slowly tried to lift her right leg.

"Hiss~" A heartbreaking pain spread along her waist, causing Luo Qingjiu to cry out in pain.

Upon seeing this, Shen Yue immediately supported Luo Qingjiu's raised right leg and shook off the three needles.

Just a little touch on the fingertip, and the three needles will buzz and tremble in unison.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the silver needle stopped trembling and became quiet.

Luo Qingjiu also felt that the heartbreaking pain dissipated.

"Keep lifting!" Shen Yue stared at the silver needle and stopped immediately if there was any change.

Seeing Shen Yue's serious and determined look, Luo Qingjiu's heart calmed down.

Try raising your legs again.

I slowly and carefully raised my right leg. Surprisingly, there was no pain anymore, just a slight numbness.

When it was half a foot high, Luo Qingjiu wanted to continue lifting, but Shen Yue stopped her.

This height is enough for today, and any more pressure will be counterproductive.

Shen Yue pulled out the silver needle on her right leg, used the same needle technique on her left leg, and lifted it half a foot high with gentle support.

"My husband is recovering very well. He will be able to get out of bed in ten days and a half." Shen Yue pulled out the needle and said to Luo Qingjiu with a smile.

Luo Qingjiu himself recovered very quickly, so it was not in vain for her to use the inherited secret technique to heal him.

"Ten days?"

He had never heard of anyone who could recover from an injured waist in ten and a half months. Luo Qingjiu only thought that Shen Yue was comforting him.

But now he believed in Shen Yue's medical skills.

"Yeah, ten days! Half a month at most!" Shen Yue promised.

The ancient medical family studies the structure of the meridians of the human body and has its own original secret techniques.

When Luo Qingjiu was first injured, Shen Yue used bone repair techniques to fix his misaligned spine, and the trembling needle just now was also one of the secret techniques to speed up the repair of muscles and bones.

Luo Qingjiu opened her mouth after a while, and said firmly, "As a husband, please trust your wife once."
