Chapter 17 - You Don’t Need A Doctor, I Will Save

“You have enmity but you do not insist on seeking revenge, such noble characters, if you two want to seek revenge, then go ahead, you have ben* this young miss, to give you support.”

*ben= me

The two people could not resist raising their head to look at Gu Qianxue, that sort of eye expression looked strangely tight, they were surprised as if they saw a monster.

While speaking with effort, the servants from outside carried a barrel in, putting it in the sideroom.

“What’s going on, why have you not gone to wash yet?” Gu Qianxue smilingly asked.

One’s speaking voice had yet dropped, instead only heard the sound ‘putong’, Yu Lian surprisingly fell to the ground.

“Sister, sister!” Yu Cui anxiously cried and loudly yelled.

Gu Qianxue immediately went to the front of her to examine, and indeed found Yu Lian’s whole body to be extremely hot, her face was also deathly pale.

“Fever?”

Yu Cui again started hitting her head towards the floor facing towards her, “Young Miss, this servant is begging you, please save sister, as long as you save sister, this servant will for you work like an ox, even if you want this servant’s life, it is fine.”

“What would I want to do with your life?” Gu Qianxue one hand quickly examined Yu Lian’s body, on the other hand, to find the time to know whether to cry or laugh at her sentence.

Very quickly, the cause of her sickness had just been found, as it turns out it’s one of the open wounds that was infected on Yu Lian’s back.

The injury isn’t too big, however it is extremely deep, the idiom, fleshed lacerated from corporal punishment can be used to describe. On the top of this deep injury, she actually could not find any traces of medicine, there was only some soil.

The wound had not been treated for a long time, and had begun to rot bringing along a faint odor.

“Who did this?” Gu Qianxue angrily said, it can be said this anger must not be released.

There was no Yu Lian to stop, Yu Cui finally is able without hesitation and confide, “It was Liu Mama*, Liu Mama is always finding something to pick fault on to hit both of us, and also deduct our monthly payments, we do not have any silvers, there is no way we can invite a *Great Doctor, my sister then…. — always carried on with this burden…..” With this said, she boo-hooed cried up again.

*older/high ranked servant

*Great Doctor – part of the doctor association at that time, known to be a common household doctor

“Don’t cry anymore, this animosity, we will definitely seek revenge.” Unaware why, Gu Qianxue entered the drama play, and felt that she herself had changed to a genuine benzun, if someone bullied her people, she absolutely will not leave the matter at that.

Yu Lian’s whole body was burning hot, this injury also cannot be dragged any longer.

Gu Qianxue reached her hand across Yu Lian and embraced her, lifting her. As a doctor during the modern times this happens very often where they have to lift people so she in comparison to a common girl had a stronger arm strength. This is good, benzun without learning or skills* also had a good body, to be able to hold up a thin and weak Yu Lian without a lot of strength.

*idiom: ignorant and incompetant

“Young Miss, you doing this, what are you going to do?” Yu Cui was puzzled.

Gu Qianxue carried Yu Lian inside the room, her bedroom, and placed her on the bed.

“Young Miss, this is unacceptable ah, we servants are very dirty, how can we lay on your bed?”

Gu Qianxue shook her head, “In front of life and death, there is no hierarchy, besides, you two are my maids, then you are not an outsider.”

“Young Miss?” Yu Cui was stunned.

“What’s the matter?” While she was replying, Gu Qianxue took off Yu Lian’s clothes and examined the open wound.

“You…you.. Are you really the Young Miss? Why does this servant think you have changed to another person?” Yu Cui spoke out the question she did not dare to ask from the bottom of her heart.

Gu Qianxue walked to the front of the dresser, in her memory, there is a makeup knife here, it was brand new, and is extremely sharp. “Then do you like the current me, or do you miss the previous me?”

“Of course it is your current you!” Yu Cui hurriedly replied, then realized she is lacking in manners, changing the way she addressed, “The previous and the present Young Miss, this servant likes all, however… I like more of the current Young Miss.”

Gu Qianxue smiled, “Then that is fine, go to the storehouse and grab a strong alcohol, quickly go.”

“Yes.” Yu Cui accepted the order, immediately running out.

Gu Qianxue also did not wait around wanderlessly, grabbing a wet towel, carefully wiping the surroundings of the open wound.

Yu Lian had already entered into a deep state of unconsciousness, even if repeatedly touching the wound, Yu Lian is also yet to be awakened.

In a short while, the strong alcohol arrived, Gu Qianxue then used the alcohol to sterilize the makeup knife.

Yu Cui anxiously guarded to the side, “Young Miss… my sister she… there is nothing wrong right?”

After sterilizing, Gu Qianxue without any slight hesitation cutted away the rotting flesh on Yu Lian’s wound, the wound again started to seep out fresh blood, Gu Qianxue pressed on few points surrounding the wound, then sprinkled the previously prepared metal sore medicinal powder on top of the wound.

The wound was too big, there was a lot of blood, the medicinal powder was not of any use for the slightest amount.

“Damn it!” Gu Qianxue cursed a bit in a low voice, “Go grab the needle box.”

Yu Cui blanked, at this time why would you use a needle box for? She cannot trust Young Miss at this time to embroider.
