Chapter 60

Xie Zhan touched his nose and raised his legs to follow.

After returning home and lighting the lamp, Ming's mother immediately drove Xie Zhan and Ming's father out and opened Mingxiu's sleeves.

It’s okay not to look at it, but when she really saw the injury on Mingxiu’s arm, Ming’s mother couldn’t help but take a breath, “This…”

Mingxiu pulled down her sleeves unnaturally, "It's just a little skin injury, it's not a problem. Just go to town to get some medicine tomorrow."

The arm was bruised and bruised, and the blood from the broken skin had dried up by now. It was stuck to a few strands of thread on the sleeve, and bruises were showing around it.

Just like Mingxiu said, it was just a skin injury, but it looked scary and the pain was unbearable.

However, no matter how unbearable the pain was, Mingxiu felt that it was bearable after meeting Ming's mother's distressed eyes that almost made her cry.

What's more, after such a long time, the pain has actually become numb. As long as you don't touch or pull it specifically, you can't feel anything.

Ming's mother wiped her tears and said, "Mom, go boil some water and wash you clean."

There are still dirt stains on the wound, which would be very serious if it becomes inflamed.

Although the skin injury may not sound serious, the most serious thing is the inflammation of the injury.

In this era where colds can kill people, although inflammation is not a terminal illness, it is still a serious illness.

Mingxiu nodded. She was also afraid of inflammation, and more importantly, she was afraid of tetanus.

If injections were still possible in modern times, but here and now...

Just think about it.

Tetanus is difficult to cure in modern times, let alone in a desert with backward medical care?

When Ming's father and Xie Zhan saw Ming's mother's red eyes, they looked at each other and their expressions changed.

"How is Xiu'er? It's nothing serious."

Ming's father was asking Ming's mother, and at the same time he wanted to reassure himself.

"...It's just a scratch plus a bump. Xiu'er said it's nothing serious. I just watched..."

Before they finished speaking, both of them understood.

Where in the world is there a mother who doesn’t feel sorry for her daughter?

It is perfectly normal for Ming's mother to have such thoughts.

"Then what are you doing now?" Ming's father doesn't feel sorry for his daughter? But it's just in front of Xie Zhan that he can't care too much and look like a mother-in-law.

Although Ming's father doesn't mind if his daughter is more capable than him, men still want to save face.

Although Xie Zhan didn't speak, his eyes were always concerned. After hearing Ming's father's words, he also looked at Ming's mother.

"I'll boil some water for Xiu'er to wash herself."

"I'll go." Xie Zhan smiled, "You and Uncle Ming are tired from running around all night. You should rest early. I will take care of Mingxiu."

Ming's mother was startled, "Isn't this...isn't this bad?"

She was indeed tired, but... it was inappropriate to let a man take care of her daughter late at night, even though Ming's mother was not familiar with the world.

"There's nothing wrong with it. We've been living under the same roof for so long, and you still don't understand who he is? Are you worried that he will take advantage of your daughter now?"

Ming's father seemed to have thought of something and quickly interrupted Ming's mother.

Seeing that she wanted to refute, she looked very tired.

"I'm too old to be tired. I don't have the spirit of these young people!"

Xie Zhan smiled and helped Ming's mother back to the room, "Don't worry."

Even if he wants to do something, he still has to see if Mingxiu agrees, right?

Ming's mother is still relieved about her daughter.

Therefore, although he was reluctant to leave, he still reluctantly left in the end.

"Then you guys go to bed early. You have to go to town early tomorrow morning."

Now is the critical moment for Mingji to build a reputation, and he must not let things slip.

Ming's mother could not continue to do such a thing with confidence and boldness.

"I know."

Taking a look at the sky, Xie Zhan knew that he would not be able to sleep for a few hours since he had to take care of Mingxiu.

Fortunately, he is a martial arts practitioner, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't sleep all night, he can just catch up on his sleep later.

"Hurry back and take the time to get some sleep. There are still many things to do tomorrow."

Not only do they have to buy daily necessities for Ye Ziming, but they also have to take Mingxiu to get medicine, and the shop cannot be neglected. They have many things to do, and without a good rest, things can easily go wrong.

"How did you come?"

Seeing that it was Xie Zhan who came in with Duan Shui, Mingxiu frowned slightly, looking a little disgusted.

In fact, she really disliked it.

Although Xie Zhan was considerate in his work, he was a clumsy man after all. Who knew how painful it would be for him to clean the wound.

If it hadn't been for the injury on her hand, she would have even wanted to do it herself.

"I was often injured while practicing martial arts when I was young, so it's not a big deal to deal with this kind of skin injury." Seeing Mingxiu's disgust, Xie Zhan explained for the first time, "I will be careful, please bear with me a little."

Cleaning a wound is inevitably painful, and no matter how careful Xie Zhan is, it still makes Mingxiu break into a cold sweat.

Seeing that he seemed to be still moving, Mingxiu frowned, "That's it, leave the rest for the doctor to come to town tomorrow."

Even if the doctor makes it hurt, at least they are professional and have medication to help, so it won't get worse.

But Xie Zhan...

Although he said that he had experience, Mingxiu had reservations about his so-called "experience" considering the extraordinary appearance he usually showed.

Xie Zhan frowned and drank softly, "If you don't clean it up, you'll get a fever later. Don't be willful! Just be patient and you'll be fine soon!"

He didn't know what Mingxiu was thinking, he just thought she was avoiding it because she was afraid of pain.

Women are always more delicate than men. Although Xie Zhan was helpless, there were not many surprises.

If Mingxiu is no longer willing, he will really get angry.

Although she was still worried, Mingxiu didn't want to make a noise with him in the middle of the night. Ming's father and mother were both asleep when she heard the noise, so she just let the elder have a good rest.

Seeing that she was motionless, Xie Zhan started cleaning again.

Fortunately, with Mingxiu's insistence, the towels at home have long been replaced by fine cotton, which is not easy to trap dirt and is also delicate. If she still wanted to use linen like before, she didn't know how painful it would be.

Mingxiu bit her lower lip tightly to control herself from crying out in pain. Xie Zhan also felt uncomfortable. Listening to Mingxiu's changing breathing, he couldn't help but be careful, and even more careful. After cleaning the wound, he, like Mingxiu, was covered in clothes.

Cold sweat.

Mingxiu was in pain, but Xie Zhan was nervous.

After such a long delay, it was already dawn outside.

"Hurry up and take a nap for a while. We have to leave for town in an hour."

I don’t know if I will be able to find a chance to rest by then.

But Mingxiu didn't feel sleepy at all, "Why would someone chase me near my house? Has my house been discovered?"

Although he didn't want Mingxiu to worry, Xie Zhan also didn't want to deceive her.
