Chapter 357: Surgery
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wei Ting’s injuries were too serious. Su Xiaoxiao decided to go back to the medical center to operate on Wei Ting.
Su Qi had followed Su MO to chase after the archers in the forest. He had yet to return, so Qin Canglan was not worried about their safety.
With Su MO around, he would not let anything happen to his brother.
Wei Ting and Fu Su were in a carriage.
Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou took one carriage while the others rode horses.
Before getting on the carriage, Qin Canglan cleared his throat and said to Wei Ting in a seemingly unintentional manner, “Don’t worry about Dahu and the others. The old monkey and Cheng’er have gone to Pear Blossom Alley.”
When Su Yu brought the news to the three of them, the first thing Qin Canglan and the Old Marquis thought of was to save Su Ergou. Only Su Cheng said, “They’ve all rushed to save Ergou. No one is looking after the children. Without the adults at home, the Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu will be afraid.’
Was Su Cheng not worried about Ergou?
It wasn’t that.
However, he was not only a father, but also the grandfather of the three little fellows.
In his heart, he had long treated the three little fellows as his own grandchildren.
Ergou could be saved, but the children could not be left unattended.
While Wei Ting was risking his life to protect Su Ergou, Su Cheng was also doing his best to protect Wei Ting’s sons.
Wei Ting nodded slightly. “Thank you.”
Qin Canglan sat on the tall horse, pulled the reins and said coldly, “Don’t think that I’ll accept you just like that. I still don’t like you in some ways.”
Wei Ting: “Oh, just some.”
Qin Canglan glared at him. “A lot! Incomparably!”
This shameless guy!
After getting on the carriage, Fu Su drove the carriage in front. He turned around and whispered to Wei Ting behind the curtain, “Young Master, I was scared to death just now. Qin Canglan rode his horse over. I thought he was going to slap you to death.”
Wei Ting was speechless.
Fu Su said, “But this is good too. You saved his grandson. He should want to kill you less in the future.”
Wei Ting muttered, “Can you look forward to me being better?”
Yuchi Xiu didn’t come today. He was sent by Wei Ting to protect the three little ones. Wei Ting thought that if he and Su Xiaoxiao went back late, he would let Yuchi Xiu bring the three little ones to the Wei family for a night.
This was a last resort.
Knowing that Su Cheng had returned, Wei Ting was not worried at all.
“Young Master, don’t you think what happened today is very strange?” Fu Su said in a low voice. “That haunted house… so it’s really haunted. There are so many corpses. I wonder how many wandering ghosts are out at night.”
At the thought of this, Fu Su felt his hair stand on end.
“And the child’s skeleton… It’s too scary…” “Young Master, who do you think did it?”
Wei Ting said, “It’s hard to say.”
This was a major case. To date, no one in in the capital had heard of such a number of murders or missing persons.
There was no clue yet.
“This is the biggest case in the past ten years, right?” Fu Su said. “There are so many dead people…”
When they left, more than twenty sets of bones had been moved. It was said that there were still more below. The people from the Imperial Capital would be busy tonight.
Fu Su’s thoughts were very jumpy. One second, he was talking about the case, and the next, he was talking about tonight’s assassination.
“Young Master, there was a chance to kill Xiao Zhonghua today. Why did you save him?”
Wei Ting said, “If I don’t save him, an assassin will immediately jump out tomorrow and accuse me of being the mastermind.”
“Ah…” Fu Su suddenly understood. “So tonight was a trap for Young Master?”
Wei Ting said indifferently, “It’s a trap set up for Xiao Zhonghua and me. No matter what happens to either of us, the other will become the mastermind. If both of us die, everyone will be happy.”
There was another point that Wei Ting did not mention.
Jing Yi saved his wife and brother-in-law below. In return, he would also protect his cousin’s life.
Therefore, she didn’t owe Jing Yi a favor, he would return it.
Fu Su did not think so deeply. He only felt that there was something strange about tonight’s incident. “The First Prince appeared at such a coincidence and even killed the few of them who were left alive the moment he arrived…
Wei Ting snorted. “Which of Emperor Jingxuan’s sons is obedient?”
Number One Hall was especially busy today.
Half of the injured people at the scene of the accident today went to Benevolence Hall, and the other half came to Number One Hall.
Physician Fu, Little Weizi, and the others were so busy that their feet didn’t even touch the ground. Even Manager Sun, a layman who didn’t know anything about medicine, took on the task of boiling water and other miscellaneous tasks.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Number One Hall.
Ah Zhong went in to get a stretcher and carried Su Ergou to Su Xiaoxiao’s courtyard with Chef Cao.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and said to Wei Ting, “Come to my courtyard too.”
When Little Weizi, who was getting medicine for the patient, heard this, he looked at his boss and the young man in a daze.
“The room is full.” Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “You and Ergou will stay in the same room. I will treat your injuries.”
Little Weizi said to himself, “That’s right, the room is full.”
He did not suspect anything and continued to dig into the medicine.
“Treat Ergou first.” Wei Ting said.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Okay.”
Su Xiaoxiao washed her hands and disinfected them. She put on sterile gloves and opened the first aid kit. She took out saline and cotton swabs and disinfected the wound on the back of Su Ergou’s head.
Su Ergou slowly woke up. “Sister…”
Su Xiaoxiao took out the anesthetic. “The wound is a little long. I’ll stitch it up for you. Don’t be afraid. It won’t hurt.”
Wei Ting walked over and held Su Ergou’s hand.
Su Ergou closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
After Su Xiaoxiao gave Su Ergou a local anesthetic, she started to suture.
Her movements were clean and efficient. There were a total of three stitches, and the suture was completed in a short while.
“It’s your turn.” Su Xiaoxiao said to Wei Ting.
Wei Ting turned his face away and said coldly, “I’m a general. I don’t need stitches for such a small injury.”
Su Xiaoxiao took out a new anesthetic and hit the nail on the head. “You’re actually afraid, right?”
This was not the first time Su Xiaoxiao had treated his injuries. When he was picked up by Su Cheng to be his live-in son-in-law, he was already seriously injured.
However, at that time, he was not conscious and did not have a deep understanding of the specific treatment process.
Looking at the syringes and needles on the plate, his scalp went numb!
“Heh, how is that possible…”
Before he could finish speaking, Wei Ting’s body tensed up.
It was a little troublesome to treat Wei Ting’s injuries. Su Xiaoxiao wanted to draw her scalpel, but she had to be careful not to hurt the nerves in his hands.
Otherwise, once his right hand was crippled, his career as a general would end.
Su Xiaoxiao was fully focused. She grabbed his palm with one hand and the hilt with the other. She pulled it out without hesitation!
She still had to suture when she needed to.
In the end, Lord Wei could not escape the fate of being pressed down and stitched up.
After treating the injury on her hand, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly took out another needle.
Wei Ting’s body trembled. “Is there more to come?”
Su Xiaoxiao raised the syringe and said, “To prevent infections.”
After being pierced, this kind of deep closed wound was most suitable for the growth of anaerobic bacteria.
Wei Ting: “I don’t do injections.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Take off your pants!”
