Chapter 158 Chapter 158(2/3)
He could also talk to his fourth brother.
It's just that the fourth brother has been too busy recently, and he was afraid that the thirteenth brother who was far away in Rehe would delay the fourth brother's affairs, so he decided to talk to the fourth sister-in-law first.
After Luo Jianing thanked her fifteenth brother, she took this matter seriously in her heart.
A few days later, Brother Thirteen, whom he had not seen for a long time, finally returned to the capital.
Luo Jianing couldn't wait and went directly to his house to find him.
The wound at that time was too scary and bloody. She had to see the wound heal with her own eyes before she could feel relieved.
Luo Jianing was prepared in advance.
She asked the fourth elder brother to help pay attention to the duty rotation of the thirteenth elder brother, and determined that the thirteenth elder brother Xiumu would be at home on this day, and had just gone to stop people early in the morning.
Thirteen Fujin was startled when he heard that Si Fujin was coming, and hurriedly came out to greet him: "Sister-in-law Four, why are you here? It's a cold day, don't catch the cold."
It's freezing cold now, and Sifujin has just given birth, so I know how difficult it is to come here.
Luo Jianing was also afraid of losing her health, so she ordered a "health potion" before she came here, and only dared to go out when she found that there was no problem. When she got here, she ordered it again, and the "health potion" was used successfully, so it was no problem.
Luo Jianing knew that Thirteenth Fujin cared about her, so she smiled and said: "Looking at how much I wear, you know that I am fine. By the way, where is Thirteenth Brother? Is he still in the house?"
Thirteenth Fujin's eyes flashed, and he lowered his eyes and said, "No, he's not here. My Thirteenth Master, he's out."
Thirteenth Fujin is gentle, virtuous, and a very honest person.
Such people are the worst at lying, so whenever she tells a lie, Si Fujin will notice it.
Luo Jianing smiled and said: "Then let's go into the house and talk. It just so happens that I haven't seen you for a long time."
Thirteen Fujin naturally responded repeatedly, with a smile appearing on his face.
The two of them were talking and laughing as they walked inside.
When Luo Jianing was about to step into the reception courtyard, she suddenly turned around and called out to a little maid who was passing by in a hurry: "Where is the Thirteenth Master now?"
Thirteen Fujin didn't expect that she would suddenly turn to the side to ask the maid, and was stunned.
The little maid took advantage of the situation and said: "It's in the flower hall in the yard next to it." Then she pointed to a direction of the yard that not many people usually go to.
Luo Jianing smiled and asked Lu Mei to stuff her with a piece of silver, and praised her for her ability in doing things.
Thirteenth Fujin regretted that his arrangements were not comprehensive enough. He only asked the waiters in the courtyard of the living room to pay attention to their words, but the maids next to him did not know that they had to cover up the whereabouts of Master Thirteenth.
She grabbed the handkerchief and said with some embarrassment: "The Thirteenth Master is taking a rest. Fourth Sister-in-law, why don't we go to the living room to chat." She then resolutely took Si Fujin's arm and planned to "help" the Fourth Sister-in-law to the living room.
At this time, Luo Jianing had already faintly noticed that something was wrong.
She naturally knew that Thirteenth Brother and Thirteenth Fujin would never treat her as an outsider and would never forget her if good things happened.
...However, once something bad happens, the couple will try their best to prevent her from getting involved.
Luo Jianing turned her passivity into initiative with a flip of her hand, and escaped from Thirteen Fujin's grasping hand. Instead, she held Thirteen Fujin's arm: "Tell me, please. How is Yinxiang doing? To tell the truth,
Don't try to trick me."
Thirteenth Fujin first avoided her eyes and said, "It's okay." Then, under Fourth Fujin's questioning, she became a little anxious and tears appeared in her eyes.
"Fourth sister-in-law, please don't press me." Thirteenth Fujin said repeatedly, "My father is really fine. Fourth sister-in-law, please don't worry."
Luo Jianing knew that the relationship between Brother Thirteen and his wife was very good. If she just asked Thirteen Fujin how he was injured, Thirteen Fujin would only answer according to Brother Thirteen's words and would not tell her what happened.
It's better to see for yourself.
She immediately said: "Then I'll go to the next yard to take a look at my thirteenth brother." Then she turned around and walked over there.
Thirteenth Fujin became anxious and chased after her with her skirt in hand. After entering the yard, she shouted loudly: "Master! Fourth sister-in-law is coming in! I can't stop her!"
Brother Thirteen obviously did not expect this situation to arise, so he hurried out of the house and happened to meet Si Fujin face to face.
Brother Thirteen was stunned for a moment and wanted to go to the house next to him, but Si Fujin quickly ran over and blocked the way.
He had no choice but to turn back to the house and confront Si Fujin with big eyes and small eyes.
"Open your trousers and show me your injury." The more Luo Jianing thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. The more she thought about it, the more nervous she became. She felt that his injury was not that simple, so she insisted on seeing it: "If you don't show it to me,
I won’t leave.”
The thirteenth elder brother turned his head as if he was a little embarrassed, and said with a groan: "You said that as a sister-in-law, you insist on seeing how your brother's legs look like."
As he said that, he walked to the chair farthest from Sifujin and sat down.
He looks like an ordinary man who is very particular about "the relationship between men and women".
But Luo Jianing had watched him grow up, so she naturally understood him.
Seeing Brother Thirteen's appearance, Luo Jianing's heart suddenly sank and she asked: "Tell the truth, is it because the wound is not fully healed, so you refuse to show it to me?"
Brother Thirteen turned his head and looked out the window: "How is that possible? It's been so long, how can it be that it's not all right?"
The more he said this, the more he dared not look at her, and the more Luo Jianing became certain that he was lying.
When Brother Thirteen was not paying attention, Luo Jianing took two steps forward, bent down and grabbed his trouser leg.
Brother Thirteen hurriedly struggled: "Fourth sister-in-law! You said there is no one like you! How can there be any sister-in-law like this!"
He yelled for Thirteen Fujin and the others to come and help, but Si Fujin held on too tightly, and stared at the people around him, glaring at them angrily. How could they dare to come over?
Even if a few people rushed up and pulled him with brute force, they were still afraid of hurting Si Fujin.
Brother Thirteen's kung fu is pretty good. If someone grabbed him like this, he would definitely use his strength to kick the opponent away with a few moves.
But this is his fourth sister-in-law.
How dare he?!
What's more, Luo Jianing not only took action, she also had a large bag of props in hand, and she picked out a few that could be used at this moment.
So with Luo Jianing's persistence and the people around her not daring to use brute force, Luo Jianing finally pushed up Brother Thirteen's trouser legs.
The result is shocking and scary.
There was a bandage there, and the bandage was red with a hint of yellow, which was obviously a sign of pus!
Luo Jianing's heart ached and she quickly asked, "What's going on with you?"
Brother Thirteen saw that the matter had come to this and there was no need to cover it up. He sighed and said: "It was indeed better at first. But it was hot at that time and it kept coming back and forth... Later, I was afraid that the injury would not get better.
When I went to Rehe, I informed the Tai Hospital in advance and asked them to send me some new ointment to Rehe every few days. Who knew that Rehe would be like this when I came back.",
It was summer when he was injured.
After the surface of the wound healed a little, the inside became inflamed, and it never healed over and over again.
He was afraid that others would worry about him, so he greeted the familiar imperial physician who was treating him, and asked the imperial physician to report good news but not bad news, and gave him some money.
The imperial doctor was also afraid that the news about his disapproval of Brother Thirteen would spread, so he naturally agreed.
Before going to Rehe, his injury was basically stabilized due to the efforts of the imperial doctor. The wound was scabbed from the inside to the outside, and it healed naturally after seeing the scab fall off.
Unexpectedly, after using the ointment sent by the imperial doctor in Rehe, his injuries worsened and pus began to ooze out soon after.
The doctor who visited Rehe didn't look after me, so I had no choice but to come back like this.
"Perhaps I'm not used to the climate, and the weather over there in Rehe is so unpredictable." Brother Thirteen didn't know what was going on, but his injury started to get worse. He could only say: "I want to find my wife when I come back."
Let the hospital take a look at it, maybe it will get better. Who knows, before it's too late, Sister-in-law Four, you're here."
After saying that, he sighed heavily.
Ignoring his struggle, Luo Jianing rolled up her sleeves and took off the bandage. Only then did she realize that the wound was sore, and the inside was red and tinged with dark yellow. It was obvious that there was serious pus.
It was more troublesome than she imagined.
If it is not treated as soon as possible, at this rate of ulceration, Brother Thirteenth's leg will probably become useless.
Luo Jianing's eyes suddenly darkened.
Obviously, there was something wrong with the medicines sent by Tai Hospital to Rehe.
It's just that I don't know which step went wrong, causing Brother Thirteen's injury to become what it is now.
But the most important thing now is not to find out the truth, but to cure him first.
"Without further delay, you need to find another good doctor to take a look at it." Luo Jianing said: "The wound looks like this. Don't wrap it up yet. Let it dry until the fourth master can find a doctor nearby.
You can pack the medicine again."
In addition, Luo Jianing also plans to use other methods to find other medicines.
She knew that if the wound was like this, it would probably fester.
If Chinese medicine is used correctly and early, it will naturally be cured.
It's just that his injury has been delayed for too long. The wound has obviously been infected for a long time, pus is constantly flowing out, and he doesn't know how deep the sore is.
It would be nice if there were anti-inflammatory drugs or something like that to treat his inflammation.
Seventeen or eighteen years ago, although she had not yet worn it, she had heard Concubine De mention it before that Emperor Kangxi had malaria at that time and could not recover.
It was the missionaries who gave him a medicine called cinchona, which cured Emperor Kangxi's malaria.
She wondered, do Westerners now have a lot of anti-inflammatory drugs and the like?
