Long Jiu coughed lightly, turned around and walked outside the bead curtain. His back was to Feng Xi'er.
Feng Xi'er patted her face. After only three small glasses, she couldn't help but sleep in. She was so drunk. With difficulty, she got out of the tub and dried herself, then fumbled with her clothes. After struggling for a while, she put on her shoes and went out. She lowered her head to check her clothes and raised her head when she bumped into the wooden shelf where the clothes were hung. Feng Xi'er winced in pain. tooth. Long Jiu had good ears and heard something unusual. Then he asked: "What's wrong?"
"Uh, no, it's nothing. I just accidentally hit my forehead." Feng Xi'er was cautious and panicked.
"Come out when you're done, I'll give you medicine." Long Jiu went to get the medicine box under the bed. To make it easier to change the dressing, Long Jiu put the medicine box he carried with him under Feng Xi'er's exclusive hospital bed.
Feng Xi'er rubbed her painful forehead, straightened her skirt, lifted the bead curtain, and crossed the threshold, but accidentally tripped and threw herself forward. Long Jiu caught Feng Xi'er in time and scolded softly: "Why are you so careless?"
Feng Xi'er stuttered: "I, I, I, this skirt is too long, I can't get used to it..."
Long Jiu helped Feng Xi'er to the table, and Feng Xi'er sat on a stool. Long Jiu first touched Feng Xi'er's forehead, then felt her pulse, and then applied medicine.
Feng Xi'er lowered her eyebrows and deliberately ignored the ambiguous smell in the air. She didn't know why she was so nervous.
Xiaotuo pushed open the door and looked at this scene in shock.
"Xiao, miss, when did you get up? Who helped you put on... clothes?" Xiao Tudou's eyes almost fell out, and his mouth could fit a big steamed bun.
Feng Xi'er smiled awkwardly: "I saw you didn't come in for so long, so I started dressing myself. My hand injury is almost healed, and dressing is not a problem." Long Jiu is a smart person, Feng Xi'er believes it Long Jiu won't talk too much.
As an unmarried young lady, it was easy for people to gossip when she moved into the Nine Prince's Mansion. If the ambiguous scene just now spread, Feng Xi'er was not afraid of losing her reputation, but she was afraid of having a scandal with Long Jiu.
Xiaodudou patted his head remorsefully and explained: "When the slave finished sweeping the corridor and put the broom back into the kitchen, he saw Brother Ada carrying rice alone, so he helped. I didn't expect that the young lady can dress by herself. It seems that the young lady can The injury healed quickly, which is great.”
Feng Xi'er gave Xiao Tudou a look of relief, which meant that she didn't have to blame herself. Xiao Tudou understood and lowered his head with a smile. Feng Xi'er said, "My wound is almost healed. You can clean it up tomorrow morning, Tu Tu." We will go back home”
Xiaotuo was confused and worried, but she nodded and went to pack her things.
After taking the medicine, Long Jiu did not go out. Instead, he took out the medical book from the medicine box and read it. Feng Xi'er couldn't help but asked shamelessly: "Prince Jiu, why don't you go out?"
"I am researching fracture healing techniques, and I need you to do some experiments," Long Jiu said calmly.
Feng Xi'er's scalp was numb and she asked tremblingly: "Really, really, experiment?"
"What? Are you scared?" Long Jiu shifted his gaze from reading to Feng Xi'er's face, looking directly at her with a smile in his eyes.
"Ha, of course... I'm afraid, I'm not an animal, how can I do experiments?" Feng Xi'er was so scared that her skin stood up. The pain at the moment when my arm was broken was unforgettable.
"Oh? You are already in the experiment" Long Jiu said with a hint of success in his tone.
In experiment? Are these medicines? ?
Long Jiu then asked: "Do you feel that your arms are particularly cool, so cold to the bones?"
Feng Xi'er nodded, "Why is this happening?"
"This medicine is the best formula for repairing wounds. It is the latest developed in the Western Region. It has miraculous effects on serious injuries such as bruises, rot, fractures, etc. It has strong penetrating power and can penetrate the skin directly to the bones to heal fractures. Now it is available for You apply the medicine, and you can remove the medicine bamboo tube tomorrow morning, and you can return to normal, but remember that the wound has just healed, so be sure not to injure it again, it will take half a month to heal, do you understand?"
It was rare for Long Jiu to speak so many words and break it down in such detail. Feng Xi'er nodded obediently. Thinking that the wound would heal so quickly, my heavy and lost heart finally found some comfort and was no longer so lifeless.
"If you are bored, just lie down. I am worried about the side effects of the medicine, so I will wait and observe here. After a while, if it is confirmed that there is no harm, I will leave." Long Jiu could only rely on various self-made reasons to accompany him. By Feng Xi'er's side.
With a man and a woman alone in the same room, Feng Xi'er couldn't dare to lie down, so she had to find the four treasures of the study to write and draw. Occasionally, she glanced at Long Jiu, who was reading the medical book calmly as if nothing happened. Feng Xi'er felt embarrassed, at a loss, and didn't know what to do. She was so bored that she scratched her hair and scratched her neck.
"Are you itchy?" Long Jiu asked, but never looked directly at Feng Xi'er.
"No, no, it's just that I haven't washed my hair for a few days and my scalp is itchy." Feng Xi'er rolled her eyes guiltily.
"I am free now. If you want to take a shower, I can help you." Did Long Jiu take the wrong medicine to actually say such a thing
Feng Xi'er panicked and said, "How dare you bother Master Jiu? I'll ask Little Potato to wash it for me when I get home."
The two of them fell into silence for a while. Feng Xi'er lay on the table and drew a flower boy and a turtle, scribbling a lot, but Long Jiu had no intention of leaving yet.
Instead, he chatted with Feng Xi'er and asked, "Why are you going to the Tenth Prince's Mansion in the morning?"
"Don't you know, Ninth Prince? Today is the twentieth birthday of the Tenth Prince."
Long Jiu hesitated for a moment. He remembered that Xiao Shi didn't like birthdays as much as he did. So I didn't keep it in mind.
"What gift did you give Xiao Shi?" Long Jiu asked curiously.
"I made a poem and painting for Master Ten. Although it is not valuable, Master Ten likes it very much." Feng Xi'er said proudly with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
"Oh? The eldest lady and Xiao Shi are so close!"
"Master Shi is loyal and a true man. He has rescued me several times. He is my friend. It's his birthday, so of course I have to express my feelings."
"I have rescued the eldest lady several times. I wonder if the eldest lady considers me a friend?" Long Jiu was inevitably a little jealous and couldn't help but ask.
Feng Xi'er hesitated for a moment and said: "Of course, without the Ninth Prince, I would have died a long time ago. A person must know how to repay kindness. The Ninth Prince is my benefactor and nobleman. Although I have nothing to help the Ninth Prince, but if If the Ninth Prince is in trouble, I will do my best to help the Ninth Prince."
"Then, how about marrying me?" Long Jiu said this calmly, so frightened that Feng Xi'er almost fell off the stool.
Feng Xi'er didn't know when she had become so popular. Even the Ghost King, who had never been close to women and was cold and careless, wanted to marry her? Is there any conspiracy in this? Or... Feng Xi'er interrupted her wild imagination.
Impossible, Hongjiu couldn't have deceived her. When feeling lost, people often like to deceive themselves and others to seek comfort.
