With their arrangements, there was no need for Wei Tingyu and Xiaocao to bring personal servants with them, let alone do anything. The people in the Marshal's Mansion treated them like guests and almost sent someone to serve them personally.
As for the little grass, as long as it doesn't disturb her work, everything is fine. Master Wei is even more Buddhist. He is now away from home and has nothing to do. However, even if he is so idle, he will not grow grass, because as long as he looks at the little grass, it is completely fine for him to sit quietly in one place all day without moving.
Two people like this don't really need anyone to serve them.
So, Hua Yu simply took Xiao Cao's maids away. What were they doing? Of course, they were going to practice treating ordinary wounds. Unlike Hua Yu before, when she directly did it on people, now she could practice with other things first.
They were following Xiaocao, and Huayu also knew that as for the role of Xiaocao, if they had not had the awareness of "studying medicine", they would have changed it long ago. Now that there is such a good opportunity, if they don't take advantage of it, then they really have a problem with their brains.
Because it is a suture for an external injury, the stitches can be removed after the wound heals, and no special thread is needed. Of course, even if special thread is needed, Xiaocao has taught several maids how to make it. There are also some commonly used analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and even basic anesthesia. For these things, Xiaocao only writes out a few prescriptions and is not stingy at all. Everyone knows how to use them and how to prepare them. Just find the doctor in Beicheng.
So, although Xiaocao can’t free his own hands, he is very happy to ask the people around him to do something.
Give out the recipe and teach the techniques. The more people in this northern border learn it, the better.
—That was originally one of the plans, wasn't it? It's just that she doesn't have time now, so she can't form a system for the time being. If she lays a good foundation, then the system won't be difficult, right
So, some things may not be as difficult as expected.
Although Xiaocao didn't say anything, Wei Tingyu knew her thoughts very well. So, from time to time, he would take advantage of Xiaocao's distraction to ask her some questions intentionally or unintentionally. Because it was Wei Tingyu, Xiaocao could be said to be the least guarded, and she would answer almost every question at this time. It was very likely that she would have no idea what she said later.
Wei Tingyu sometimes thought that Xuan'er was too easy to trick, so it was better to hide it. - In his heart, he knew very well that this was a unique treatment for him, and while he was happy, he secretly used this as an excuse to hide people.
After sorting out Xiaocao's thoughts, Wei Tingyu no longer stared at Xiaocao all day long. He would naturally do his best to help her with what she wanted to accomplish. Moreover, this was a matter that benefited the country and the people, and would be of great benefit to the entire Qi Dynasty.
However, Huayu and the others are women after all, so some things are not so convenient. Moreover, the people they brought with them are basically idle people. How can a bunch of grown men just eat gossip? Naturally, they have to make the best use of them.
Of course, not all of them need to learn how to treat wounds. There are so many things to do to build the entire system.
Pingjin Hou had selfish motives in "kidnapping" Xiaocao. Originally, all the generals of Dingbei Army in Beicheng wanted to meet Xiaocao and express their gratitude to her in person, but Xiaocao was hiding and not seeing anyone, so it was naturally not easy for a bunch of grown men to rush to her house. And after Wei Tingyu took charge and started doing this series of things, as long as those people were not blind, they would know the great benefits of this. You know, for these people who put their heads on their belts, nothing is more important than being alive. Compared with life, all kinds of taboos are nothing.
Moreover, in the war-torn border areas, the existence of ulcer doctors is actually very common, but their methods are too simple and not conducive to the healing of injuries. Now, there is a more complete method that can heal injuries faster, and only a fool would refuse it.
Especially with the evidence of those under Wei Tingyu's command who had been injured before, some of them had their stitches removed, while some of their injuries were more serious and would need some time. But for these tough men, even if the injuries had not healed, it would have no effect on them. If someone wanted to see it, he would let them see it without any taboo.
At the beginning, Huayu and the other girls might have been criticized, but it happened that a smaller war broke out at this time, and after the wounded were sent back, Huayu was fine when she took over, but it was a little different for the other maids. However, they endured the discomfort of blood and broke through the psychological barrier of "men and women should not touch each other". They started with shaking hands, but later they just wanted to seize the time and do their best to save more people.
One after another, they were so busy that they had no time to eat or rest. At that moment, who would criticize them? They were so amiable and respectable!
Originally, there were many women who volunteered to help take care of these wounded soldiers. In the past, the most they could do was to bring water and meals, and most of the time they could only watch them suffer in agony, which was heartbreaking. They wanted to do something but were powerless. Now they seem to have seen a broader road. They watch and learn carefully, and even if they cannot do it for the time being, they help pass things. They call Huayu "daughters" and feed them directly when they don't have time to eat or drink.
Even in that kind of atmosphere, what people feel is an unprecedented warmth.
Whether it was Wei Tingyu or the people busy outside, they were all acting in the name of Xiaocao.
Xiaocao basically concluded that the herbs collected were usable and the effect should be very good. However, there was a problem now. That is, the whole plant of the herbs must be used together. Once separated, both the "poison" and the "medicine" would quickly lose their effect. However, if used together, the poison could not restrain the poison. In other words, if the poison would work on Wei Tingyu, the poison would do the same. The medicine would not work immediately and make Wei Tingyu get better immediately, but the poison could kill Wei Tingyu immediately.
Xiaocao tried many methods to try to separate them while retaining the medicinal properties, but all ended in failure. This made her very confused, but no matter how confused she was, she had to solve it. It could be said that this was her only hope, and she could not give up no matter what. She devoted herself to the medicine and naturally had no idea what was happening outside.
What they didn't know was that Wei Tingyu also wrote a memorial, detailing the matters concerning the "medical team", and had it sent back to the imperial city at full speed to be presented to Emperor Xuanren.
In short, the Prince of Wei was probably trying his best to get benefits for his wife. As the saying goes, justice is justice, his Xuan'er doesn't care, and even doesn't think about it at all, but he can't forget that he must get the benefits he deserves. Well, I believe that the people of the Wen family must have the same idea.
After a few days, Xiaocao was sure that the separation method was useless, so he had to find another way. He used other drugs to neutralize its toxicity so that it would only exert its medicinal properties. However, this was not an easy task. He had to be careful to avoid any additional harm. After all, Wei Tingyu's current physical condition made it difficult for him to withstand even the slightest bad thing.
When it comes to various medicines, Xiaocao is equivalent to an encyclopedia. She knows not only the types but also the thousands and thousands of formula combinations and variations. After determining the toxicity, she can instantly list more than a dozen prescriptions for neutralizing the toxicity. Now it depends on which plan is the best, neither too much nor too little, just enough to neutralize the toxicity. This requires experiments, but we cannot experiment blindly. After all, the life-saving drugs we find are limited. If they are wasted carelessly, and not enough to cure the disease later, it will be really frustrating.
Because he was too cautious, Xiaocao didn't dare to act rashly.
Wei Tingyu noticed Xiaocao's condition. In fact, she had encountered similar situations before. Of course, the situations were different. After all, at that time, she encountered some problems, but they were not urgent. The worst thing was to spend more time. Sometimes her image might be a little bad, but generally speaking, she was still able to handle it with ease. This time was different. His physical condition was not optimistic. Although it did not seem that he would die suddenly for the time being, as the saying goes, there are unexpected events in life. If an emergency occurs by accident, Xiaocao may be powerless to save the situation. Therefore, only when the person is cured one day earlier can they be completely relieved.
However, Wei Tingyu felt distressed by her anxiety. At this time, the temperature dropped suddenly again, and snowflakes even began to fall from the sky, getting heavier and heavier. However, Wei Tingyu was not cold. It was at this moment that everyone realized that his wheelchair not only had many hidden weapons, but the opposite position had another secret. It even functioned as a hand warmer. After using it, sitting on it would keep you warm. Even if you wore thick clothes and covered yourself with a blanket, no matter how cold-fearing you were, you would not want to sit on it.
"Xuan'er, we have been in North City for a few days. How about we go for a walk in the city?"
"Hmm?" Xiao Cao turned her head and understood what he said a little late. Seeing Wei Tingyu looking outside, she thought he was probably bored. It made sense. No one could stand being idle. Considering the current progress, it would be nice to take half a day to go out for a walk. "Okay. Although I went to many places with my adoptive father when I was a child, the time was not long if you counted carefully. When I was young, the things I could see and remember were even more limited. My adoptive father was probably worried about me and was in the south most of the time. The scenery in the north should really be appreciated."
Even though Xiaocao had been to the north in his previous life, he spent most of his time studying. The difference between that city and the one today is too great. Besides, when he was alone, he was always in a hurry and hardly stopped to take a closer look at anything.
Xiaocao wasn't unkempt at the moment, but she wasn't in much better shape either. Being a mess at "home" was bad enough, but she certainly couldn't be like that when she went out. She quickly washed up, changed her clothes and put on makeup. Since her maid wasn't there, she asked the people from the Marshal's Mansion to help her. Whether it was the hair accessories or other embellishments on her clothes, they all had the characteristics of the northern style.
Compared to the flowing feeling she had in the Imperial City, the style was simpler and more "close fitting". Xiaocao was wearing animal skin boots, and the skirt below only reached her calves, with a circle of white fluff on the edge. She was wearing a furry jacket on her upper body. Compared to her previous calm and steady appearance, she looked more lively now.
Xiao Cao stood in front of Wei Tingyu and turned around. "How do you feel? Does it look good?"
Wei Tingyu smiled and nodded, "Very beautiful." He reached out and held Xiaocao's hand, but when he felt the roughness on her hands, Wei Tingyu's eyes darkened a little. After returning to the Wenren family, these hands were taken care of to be no different from those of the noble ladies. However, she collected herbs herself, and in just a few days, their hands became rough again, and even worse than before. However, when he first held these hands in silence, Xuan'er smiled indifferently, and even joked with him, asking if he disliked her
After that, other than asking people to take care of her hands intentionally or unintentionally, Wei Tingyu never showed any emotion in front of Xiaocao.
"Should we go by ourselves or ask someone to lead the way for us?" Xiaocao asked.
When Xiaocao was busy, the people from the Marshal's Mansion would never show up, but when they were in need, they would be extremely diligent and responsible. "If the young lady needs anything, just tell her directly."
Wei Tingyu told Xiaocao to just figure it out on his own. Xiaocao thought about it and decided that since he was unfamiliar with the place, it would be better to have someone lead the way than to wander around on his own, so he called two people to be his "guides".
From the beginning to the end, Wei Tingyu listened quietly. Even though they were not familiar with the city, the people below had already figured it out thoroughly. Not to mention sending all the people out, it was actually impossible. Some were left behind as guards. In someone else's territory, it was impossible for Wei Tingyu to hand over the security to others. You could say he was cautious or that he did not trust people.
He wouldn't tell her these.
No further instructions were needed. When they left, the people below were already ready. When Xiaocao saw an acquaintance whom he hadn't seen for several days, he tilted his head slightly, as if he understood something, but in the end he just smiled.
The Marshal's Mansion is in an excellent location, and unlike the imperial city where there are clear class divisions, here, as soon as you step out of the door, it is bustling with people. At a glance, most of the people there are ordinary people, and there are quite a few shops with various stalls open. Of course, there are also soldiers walking in formation with weapons in hand.
Seriously speaking, this kind of life scene of ordinary people is what Xiaocao is most familiar with.
At this moment, Xiaocao seemed to have lost all her previous worries and smiled unconsciously. If it hadn't been for the snow and the guards holding an umbrella, she would probably have pushed Wei Tingyu out excitedly.
As we walked, we listened to the maids from the Marshal's Mansion introducing various things. Compared to those in the Imperial City, the maids in each family were not so free. The maids in the North City were very different. They knew everything about the outside world and were very interested in talking about them.
