230 Rescue
This group of soldiers rushed in extremely quickly, but although they were anxious, they were not arrogant or rude at all when they explained their intentions to the shopkeeper.
During this moment, Lin Suisui also saw the young general being carried in on the stretcher.
He was very young, and his pale face still had a hint of youthfulness. Half of the armor on his body had already shattered. At a glance, Lin Suisui could see that the wound on his right arm, which was bandaged extremely carelessly, was extremely serious.
“There’s no doctor in the shop who’s good at dealing with this kind of external injury!”
In a border town like Cloud Mountain City, the shopkeeper was naturally familiar with such injuries. However, because he knew the severity of the matter, he didn’t dare to accept responsibility.
If it was handled well, everyone would be happy. However, if it was mishandled, his shop wouldn’t be able to operate anymore!
“Let me do it!”
Just as the soldiers were about to kneel down to the shopkeeper, Lin Suisui suddenly took a step forward and said in a cold yet firm voice, “Su Le, help me carry this general to Doctor Luo’s carriage.”
“You…” Originally, when he heard that someone could treat the general, the soldier in the lead was quite happy. However, when he turned around and saw a meek-looking woman, his hope was immediately crushed.
It wasn’t that Lin Suisui didn’t see the disappointment in his eyes, but she couldn’t be bothered to explain so much now. She said calmly, “If you still want to protect your general’s arm, listen to me!”
The soldier in the lead actually didn’t have a chance to resist because Su Le had already brought people to snatch the stretcher and carry it out of the medicine shop. They sent it to the lavish carriage Lin Suisui was in.
The group traveled extremely quickly. They passed through the empty street and quickly arrived outside the courtyard where Doctor Luo and the others lived.
“This is?” When Doctor Luo heard the commotion at the door and came out to welcome them, he saw that Su Le and the others had already rushed in with a stretcher. He subconsciously dodged to the side and pointed in a direction for Su Le. “Carry him to the room over there. There’s a warm bed and a charcoal basin!”
“I met him when I went to the medical center to buy herbs. The people in the medical center were afraid of taking responsibility and were unwilling to treat him, so I brought him over!” As Lin Suisui walked, she quickly told Doctor Luo about the situation. “This general’s arm is seriously injured. We have to treat it quickly!
If it’s handled well, we might be able to save the arm!”
As she raised her hand to take off the veiled hat on her head and handed it to Bai Guo, who was beside her, she had already taken a handkerchief from Yin Qiao with her other hand. At the same time, she didn’t forget to instruct Doctor Luo to prepare the things.
“Will this work?!” Seeing that Lin Suisui had already brought people into the room with the general, the soldiers following behind looked worried. They wanted to go in, but they were stopped by Yuan Niang.
“The room is not big. It’s best if you guys don’t go in and cause trouble.” Yuan Niang sensed that the leader was worried, so she paused for a moment before continuing, “Your general is lucky to have encountered Madam Lin today!”
“She’s just a woman. Is she really that capable?!” The soldier was stopped by Yuan Niang, but his mouth wasn’t sealed.
As soon as he said this, Yuan Niang’s expression immediately turned ugly. “What’s wrong with being a woman?! Can’t women have good medical skills?!
It’s not that I’m boasting, but at least in the entire Cloud Mountain City, you definitely can’t find another doctor with better medical skills than our Madam!
“You look down on our Madam, but were there any male doctors willing to treat your general?!”
“I’m sorry. I was too rude. Miss, you’re right!” The soldier’s face turned red when he heard Yuan Niang’s words. He realized that what he had said just now was rude, so he quickly took two steps back and bowed to Yuan Niang respectfully.
Yuan Niang knew that the soldiers in front of her were anxious about the general inside. Seeing that the other party admitted his mistake with a humble attitude, she didn’t harp on it. She softened her tone and suggested in a low voice, “Go to the next room and wait instead of standing under the corridor. It’s quite cold.”
“No need. We’ll stand guard here!” The soldier shook his head repeatedly. Even the seven or eight companions who had come with him expressed that they could stand here and wait for the results.
“Then go down to the corridor and wait!” Yuan Niang sized up the situation in the courtyard and pointed at a corridor at the side. “If you guys stand here, it won’t be convenient for people to send things in later!”
“Thank you, Miss.” Only then did the soldier listen to Yuan Niang’s arrangements. He and the other brothers bowed to Yuan Niang before hurriedly hiding in the corridor at the side to wait for news.
Yuan Niang glanced at those people. Thinking that they had probably just returned from the battlefield, she turned around and called the maidservant standing under the corridor. She instructed her in a low voice, “Arrange for someone to send a charcoal basin over there! Also, see if there’s anyone in the kitchen. Prepare some food for them!”
The maidservant bowed and left.
After everything was arranged, Yuan Niang turned around and carefully lifted the curtain to enter the room.
With Doctor Luo’s help, Lin Suisui treated the arm of the general lying on the bed. She had already debrided the wound and sterilized it. It was already time to suture it.
She stood at the door for a while. When she saw that everything was going smoothly, she quietly retreated.
She turned around and saw that the maidservants had already sent soup noodles to those soldiers. However, probably because they were too concerned about their general’s injuries, those soldiers didn’t seem to be in the mood to eat.
After she thought for a moment, she walked around the corridor and said to the leading soldier, who was still looking in the direction of the door, “Have something to eat. I just went in to take a look. Your general is fine. Don’t worry!”
“Can he really keep his arm?!” The soldier held a soup bowl as he asked. Although this wasn’t the first time he had heard Yuan Niang promise him this, he was still a little worried.
“Of course.” Yuan Niang smiled and reassured the soldier. As if she had guessed that they would doubt her, she raised her hand and pointed at her abdomen gently. “I had a difficult labor previously. When me and my daughter were on the brink of death, it was Madam who helped me give birth. She was able to save us even after cutting open my stomach. Your general only suffered some injuries to his arm. What’s the big deal?!”
