Chapter 927: Chapter 925_1

Soon, Yang Liu came out and was taken aback when she saw Huzi’s mother covered in blood: "Auntie, what happened?"

"Miss Yang, please save Huzi’s father. He was hit in the head by Baozi’s mother with an iron shovel. He’s lost a lot of blood and is unconscious!"

"Wait here! I am going to inform Mrs. Xu." Once Yang Liu heard this, she had a rough idea of what had happened.

Earlier, when the waiter came to report, she hadn’t told Xiao’er yet because she needed to confirm the situation first. Now, she swiftly employed her Qinggong skills and ran inside.

The innkeeper rubbed his eyes, impressed. So Miss Yang knew martial arts?

This proved that there were no fools around the master!

When Yang Liu arrived outside Xiao’er’s room, Xiao’er was already awake. She was an early riser, so she had heard when someone came looking for Yang Liu.

Xiao’er saw Yang Liu return to the door of the room and knew that something must have happened to Huzi’s family. Without waiting for Yang Liu to speak, Xiao’er said, "Come in!"

Yang Liu pushed the door open and entered, bowing in greeting.

"What did Huzi’s mother come here for?"

"Huzi’s father was hit with a shovel by Baozi’s mother. He lost a lot of blood and is now unconscious."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xuanyi furrowed his brows. A shrew indeed! Making such a big deal of a small matter and treating her brother-in-law harshly! Besides, this had nothing to do with Huzi’s father!

After hearing this, Xiao’er instantly grasped the gravity of the situation. This was utterly outrageous!

"Put Huzi’s father in room ’Heaven 1’. I’ll wait for him there." Xiao’er stood up, found her medical box, and walked over.

Shangguan Xuanyi followed, reluctant to leave his darling alone, also disallowing her to physically treat any other man’s wounds.

As for him treating others himself? He wasn’t willing either; aside from his darling, he didn’t want to touch anyone.

Yang Liu went out to arrange for Huzi’s father to be taken to ’Heaven 1’.

The room ’Heaven 1’? The space reserved for honored guests? The innkeeper was shocked upon hearing this. It looked like Huzi’s parents had caught the eye of the master!

He was relieved that he hadn’t looked down on them. He wasn’t the kind of man who judges a book by its cover, otherwise, he would have been in trouble today.

However, considering the characteristics of their master’s household, they all respect humility and virtue. They pick their people based on character first, then abilities. It seemed that Huzi’s parents must be good people.

When Yang Liu brought everyone to ’Heaven 1’, Xiao’er and Shangguan Xuanyi were already waiting inside.

A few people wanted to bow in respect.

Xiao’er rebuked them, "With the urgency of the situation, why are you bowing? Hurry up and put him on the bed so I can examine him."

The group immediately laid Huzi’s father on the bed.

Due to excessive blood loss, Huzi’s father’s face was turning blue, his lips lost their color, and his breathing was weak.

Xiao’er wanted to step forward to unwrap the bandage on his head and administer medicine.

Shangguan Xuanyi was quick to grab her hand, staying silent but glaring at Xiao’er, making it clear that he did not permit it.

Yang Liu and Yang Mei knew their master’s domineering character. They both chimed in simultaneously, "Mrs. Xu, let us change Huzi’s father’s medicine!"

Xiao’er nodded, then glared at Shangguan Xuanyi.

However, even the most piercing of glares wouldn’t faze a certain someone, who remained completely indifferent.

"Mrs. Xu, which medicine should we change to?"

With his life hanging by a thread, the obvious answer was, "The best one! Feed him a healing pill first."

Hearing this, Yang Liu and Yang Mei promptly sprang into action.

Yang Liu took out a healing pill from the medical box and fed it to Huzi’s father.

Yang Mei poured a cup of ’space’ water (which Xiao’er had prepared earlier) from the teapot, gestured for Wei Zhuang to prop up Huzi’s father’s body, then fed him a sip of water.

Then, she had Huzi’s father lie back down. Yang Mei unwrapped the bandage on his head while Yang Liu prepared the ’space’ water and Jinchuang ointment to clean and disinfect the wound before applying the medicine.

"When did he get injured? Have you seen a doctor? What did the doctor say?"

"He got injured about two hours ago. We only managed to see one doctor who said he couldn’t be saved, and the doctors from the other clinics were not around! The wounds were bandaged by the pharmacy staff from Tongde Hall using a bit of hemostatic medicine, which helped stop the bleeding and bought us enough time to find a doctor. But Huzi’s father still lost a lot of blood." The bandage on his head was already soaked in red.

Looking at Huzi’s father in this state, Huzi’s mother couldn’t control her tears.

By this time, the bandage had been unwrapped. Xiao’er gave the wound one glance and felt that Baozi’s mother had been unduly violent! It was as though she intended to beat someone to death!

Yang Liu and Yang Mei cooperated very well and soon The wound was swiftly dressed and bandaged.

After completing these tasks, they quickly cleaned up the room.

"Is that all?" It seemed so simple, Huzi’s mother couldn’t dare believe. She always felt that doing a bit more could save her husband’s life.

"Yes, that’s all! He has taken the medicine, the wound has been bandaged, that’s it! Auntie, rest assured, after six hours, uncle will wake up! Have you noticed that the wound isn’t seeping much blood now?"

Huzi’s mother just noticed that the red spot on the bandage stained with blood was no longer expanding! This meant the bleeding had stopped.

"This truly is a miracle drug!" exclaimed the village chief.

Wei Zhuang couldn’t help but grumble secretly: This must be the medicine only nobles in the palace could use. It is indeed miraculous! Huzi’s father probably burned some incense in his past life to be able to know such noble people.

If the medicine they brought couldn’t save Huzi’s father, he believed that no one in the world could!

The village chief once again tested Huzi’s father’s breath, which felt a bit stronger. He excitedly said, "Wei Zhuang, why don’t you try? It seems like his breath has gotten stronger."

Wei Zhuang quickly stepped forward to test, then immediately showed joy on his face, saying excitedly, "It has indeed gotten stronger!"

Huzi’s mother also couldn’t help but test and then cried tears of joy. She kneeled down to Xiao’er and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Xu, for saving him. Even if we have to work like cattle and horses, we are willing to repay your kindness."

Xiao’er motioned to Yang Mei with her eyes to help her up: "Alright, it was just a small act on my part. There’s no need for you to repay me in such an exaggerated manner. By the way, what exactly happened? Can you tell me?"

Upon hearing this, the village chief began recounting the series of events that had happened, starting from when Xiao’er had told Zhao Yong to look for him, up until when Baozi’s mother viciously smashed Huzi’s father’s head.

"This was an intentional murder! Arrest the whole Baozi family, excluding the children, and put them in death row! Choose a day to execute them as a deterrent!" Shangguan Xuanyi suddenly interjected.

Thankfully, his darling wasn’t present at the scene. Otherwise, he didn’t know if those mad dogs would have taken their anger out on her!

Shangguan Xuanyi apparently forgot about Xiao’er’s martial arts skills, ordinary people could hardly get near her!

"Death row?" The village chief couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

Huzi’s mother didn’t react as she felt they deserved to die. One wouldn’t blame her for being mean, but people can indeed be too ruthless!
