Xiao Ju was knocked to the ground by the carriage!
She fainted on the spot!
“Xiao Ju…!” Qin Yun rushed forward, cradling Xiao Ju’s body!
At this moment, Xiao Ju’s face was covered in blood. No matter how much Qin Yun cried out, she did not wake up!
Inside the carriage!
The woman lifted the curtain, sneering!
“What a nuisance, this country bumpkin!”
The moment Qin Yun heard the voice, her eyes turned bloodshot!
This was the voice of her cousin, whom she had trusted implicitly in her previous life… Li Tingting!
Not only had she seized the Xiang family’s fortune, but she had also stolen her husband!
What a fateful encounter today!
She hadn’t gone to find Li Tingting, but Li Tingting had delivered herself right to her doorstep!
Qin Yun raised her eyes!
Her gaze was filled with coldness!
Upon seeing Qin Yun’s gaze, Li Tingting shrugged!
That person’s eyes were terrifying!
“What are you looking at? Wearing a veil in broad daylight, you must be ugly. Get out of the way, don’t block my path, madam!”
“You hit someone and you’re still making demands? Pray tell, whose concubine are you?” Qin Yun sneered!
Concubine?
Li Tingting was displeased!
“What concubine? I am the principal wife!”
Then, Li Tingting addressed the young servant driving the carriage, “Pull these two village women away!”
“Yes, Madam!”
The servant was about to dismount to drive them away!
Qin Yun sneered. “No need to rush, I will leave on my own accord!”
Qin Yun surveyed the surroundings!
Everyone was only watching, no one stepped forward to help!
Coincidentally, Li Tingting was from Li Fengsheng’s household!
Li Fengsheng held a considerable official position now, so naturally, no one dared to offend him!
Her attire today was indeed coarse, indistinguishable from a village woman!
Apart from Xiao Ju, she hadn’t brought anyone else with her today!
If she were to confront Li Tingting now, she would be the one at a disadvantage!!
The immediate priority was to save Xiao Ju!
Lingering here was useless, moreover, her identity as a woman should not be exposed!
She knew Li Tingting; if you can’t catch the monk, you can still catch the temple!
“Xiao Ju, let’s go to the clinic. You’ll be alright!” Qin Yun grabbed Xiao Ju’s arm! With a strong pull, she hoisted Xiao Ju onto her back!
Qin Yun’s steps were arduous as she carried Xiao Ju on her back!
No matter what, she had to save Xiao Ju!
Seeing Qin Yun leave so obediently!
Li Tingting let out a sinister cold snort!
“You uncultured country bumpkin, the capital is not a place for you. Go back to the countryside and farm!”
Qin Yun did not reply!
Anything she said now was useless!
She had just taken Xiao Ju’s pulse and examined the wound!
Due to the carriage’s impact, Xiao Ju had been hit on the head. The sudden concussion was too much, and Xiao Ju, unable to endure the pain, had fainted!
After walking a short distance, Qin Yun spotted a clinic not far away!
Fortunately, the distance was not far, otherwise, she would have been utterly exhausted!
If Xiao Ju hadn't pushed her today, she would have been the one injured!
Although Xiao Ju was a maid, she would remember this kindness!
“Someone, come quickly!”
Upon reaching the clinic, Qin Yun urgently called for help!
Seeing this!
The young servants inside the clinic quickly came forward to assist!
Then, the two of them, with combined effort, placed Xiao Ju on a stretcher!
The doctor inside also immediately came to Xiao Ju’s side!
“Doctor, she has lost too much blood. Please give her some hemostatic medicine first, and then prepare some pain relief ointment!”
The doctor did not delay, following Qin Yun’s instructions, he first fetched the hemostatic medicine, then the pain relief ointment!
After the medicine was brought!
Qin Yun quickly snatched it. “Thank you, Doctor!”
Opening the hemostatic powder, Qin Yun directly sprinkled it onto Xiao Ju’s wound!
To allow the powder to take effect quickly, Qin Yun found some cotton wool and applied it to the wound with the powder, which would help stop the bleeding more effectively!
The doctor beside her, watching Qin Yun’s technique, stroked his white beard and nodded with satisfaction!
This technique was more proficient than his own disciples!
“Young lady, do you know medicine?”
Upon hearing this, Qin Yun’s hand movements paused!
Then, she continued to apply the pain relief ointment to Xiao Ju!
“I’ve been sickly since childhood, so I learned some medical knowledge! I only know a smattering of it!”
“But your technique, young lady, is very skilled, unlike a beginner!”
Qin Yun did not look up, continuing to apply medicine to Xiao Ju on her own!
“I’ve been injured quite a lot since childhood. My family was poor, so I always treated my own wounds, and gradually became skilled at it!”
The doctor smiled and said nothing!
If the other party was unwilling to speak more, why should he force her hand!
“Doctor, please calculate how much these medicines cost!”
She had medicine at home, but Xiao Ju’s condition was quite serious now, and it was too late to return home!
Moreover, they had left the residence in disguise!
In the current situation, it was not appropriate to return home!
They could only wait until nightfall to take Xiao Ju back!
After applying the hemostatic powder and pain relief ointment!
Xiao Ju’s injuries were alleviated!
Qin Yun stayed by Xiao Ju’s side!
Looking at Xiao Ju’s pale and haggard face, Qin Yun felt a pang of distress!
Li Tingting, you were the one who provoked me!
I’ve been busy with a case recently and intended to deal with you later, but I didn’t expect… you to show up so eagerly!
Very good!
From now on, you can just wait for my retaliation!
“Miss, it’s a total of five taels of silver!” The servant approached Qin Yun and said softly.
Qin Yun took a silver ingot and handed it to the servant. “Here’s ten taels. I’ll wait here until she wakes up.”
The servant took the silver and looked at Qin Yun! “Miss, you seem to be injured as well! Your wrist is bleeding! And… your knee is also badly injured!”
Qin Yun, who had been worried about Xiao Ju’s injuries, had forgotten that she was also hurt!
“It’s alright, you may leave now!”
She could endure these minor injuries!
No matter how much it hurt, it wasn’t as painful as Xiao Ju’s pain!
The servant wanted to say something! Seeing Qin Yun in a bad mood, he did not press the matter!
Before long!
The doctor from the clinic came to Qin Yun’s side!
“Miss, I know you are feeling distressed, but you are also seriously injured!”
After speaking, the doctor placed the ointment in front of Qin Yun!
Knowing that Qin Yun was a person of her own mind, the doctor did not say much!
“Thank you!”
“Since you paid the silver, this medicine should indeed be given to you, Miss!”
Qin Yun nodded and said nothing further!
Seeing this, the doctor also left!
As night fell!
Qin Yun took Xiao Ju’s pulse!
Xiao Ju’s pulse had stabilized considerably!
Seeing this, Qin Yun finally felt relieved!
Turning around!
Looking at the darkness descending!
Qin Yun pondered… how should she return to the residence!
If she summoned a carriage, and people saw her going to the Zhuangyuan Mansion, it would surely cause gossip!
Xiao Ju had not yet woken up, and it was not advisable to move her!
Even if Xiao Ju woke up! She couldn’t let her walk!
Just as Qin Yun was in a predicament!
Qingshan had already appeared behind Qin Yun!
Seeing Qingshan suddenly appear, Qin Yun was overjoyed!
“Qingshan?”
“Mistress, you have suffered!” Qingshan glanced at the sleeping Xiao Ju, then shifted his gaze to Qin Yun!
“I am fine, but Xiao Ju, she is severely injured!”
“Mistress, let us return to the residence!”
Qin Yun nodded!
Then Qingshan carried Xiao Ju onto his back, and the three of them left the clinic together!
The doctor did not step forward, assuming it was Qin Yun’s husband who had come to help!
After exiting the clinic!
Qingshan carried Xiao Ju to a corner!
He had already prepared a carriage for them!
Given that Qin Yun was disguised as a woman today, many things had to be handled with caution!
Now, in the dead of night, no one noticed this scene!
