Chapter 764: Chapter 683, Shameless_2
Wu Jingyi frowned and strode towards Kou Yaowu’s military tent, seeing Chui Gang still there, he hastily asked, "Why did Doctor Ge leave so quickly, is the man treated?"
Chui Gang spoke light-heartedly, "Treated. After taking the medicine, Kou Yaowu’s fever subsided, and Doctor Ge has redressed his wound. The guy is lucky; he’s now sleeping soundly."
Wu Jingyi was astonished, "That fast?!"
Chui Gang nodded and gave a thumbs up, "Doctor Ge’s medical skills are really good. Kou Yaowu’s wound was festering, and he cleanly removed the necrotic tissue in two swift motions, both quick and accurate. During the process, Kou Yaowu only furrowed his brow once before it was all taken care of."
After hearing this, Wu Jingyi went to the bedside to inspect Kou Yaowu’s wound. Being a military officer himself who had suffered both major and minor injuries before, he could tell from the stitching of the wound that what Chui Gang said was true.
"The Yan Family sure knows how to find people!"
Chui Gang nodded, "Indeed." It wasn’t that he looked down on the army doctors, but the comparison was just too stark.
Noticing two white pills on the bedside, Wu Jingyi found them somewhat familiar and couldn’t help asking, "What are these?"
Chui Gang replied, "These are the anti-inflammatory pills for treating wound infection and fever. Kou Yaowu took one and his fever went down. These two are for tomorrow."
Wu Jingyi’s eyes flickered, "They work that well?"
Chui Gang looked a bit sheepish, "If they didn’t work well, I wouldn’t have snatched them."
At this moment, Wu Dingbo suddenly butted in, "Dad, don’t you also have a container of this medicine?"
Wu Jingyi really wanted to rush over and silence his son, but it was too late.
Looking at Chui Gang’s eager gaze, Wu Jingyi awkwardly twisted his mouth, and before he could say anything, he was grabbed by Chui Gang, "Old Wu, why didn’t you bring out the medicine earlier to save people?"
Wu Jingyi tried to shake off Chui Gang’s hand but failed, "It’s not that I didn’t want to, the medicine was given to me, and I didn’t know about its efficacy before this."
Chui Gang quickly asked, "How much do you have?"
Wu Jingyi wanted to say not much, but Wu Dingbo spoke up again, "My dad has a whole bottle, probably about fifty pills."
Hearing that, Chui Gang didn’t say more and pulled Wu Jingyi towards the medical tent where the wounded were being cared for.
Looking at the soldiers suffering from fevers due to infected wounds, Wu Jingyi pursed his lips tightly, thinking about how he needed to save some pills when that damn kid spoke up again.
"Dad, quick, take out your medicine and save these people. Look how much they are suffering!"
Seeing his son with a look of compassion as if the pain of others was his own, Wu Jingyi turned his head away in silence. Was this guy really his son?
Had he forgotten that his father, his older brother, his male cousins also often did errands and could get hurt as well?
Chui Gang looked at Wu Dingbo with a grateful expression, "Young Master Wu is indeed benevolent!"
A few observant soldiers nearby promptly joined in with gratitude, "Young Master Wu is benevolent!"
Having always been a troublemaker and hardly ever doing anything worthwhile, Wu Dingbo suddenly felt a surge of pride upon seeing these people looking at him with such gratitude.
Thus, Wu Jingyi felt like smashing his head against a block of tofu.
Wu Dingbo looked at his father, "Dad, quick, take out the medicine. I saw you put it in your pocket earlier, come on and save these people. You’re the commander of the Five Armies, after all; these soldiers are all under your command, you can’t neglect them."
Looking at his foolish son who was practically writing the accusation on his face, Wu Jingyi took a few deep breaths, keeping his cool; this was his own son, after all, someone he couldn’t punish without facing consequences at home.
With all the commotion they caused, the injured soldiers in the medical tent all knew Wu Jingyi had medicine on him now.
Looking into pair after pair of hopeful eyes, he really couldn’t refuse, and with a throbbing headache, he had no choice but to take out the medicine.
Wu Jingyi had just fetched the medicine when Chui Gang snatched it away, as if afraid he’d change his mind.
Watching the medicine taken away, Wu Jingyi moved his lips, "Can you leave me a few?" If this had been given to him by an elder, he wouldn’t hesitate to ask for more, but with this man, he truly didn’t dare.
Thanks to the medicine Wu Jingyi provided, the next day, the condition of the soldiers with serious injuries stabilized. Wu Dingbo, knowing this, immediately came grinning to inform his father.
Watching his son’s foolish grin, Wu Jingyi felt utterly exasperated. Out of sight, out of mind, he strode toward the medical tent, and upon seeing that all the injured soldiers were indeed recovering, he fell silent for a while before briskly exiting the military camp.
"Dad, where are you going?"
"Don’t follow me, scram over to the side!"
"That won’t do, you’re my dad, I have to follow you. Where are you really going?"
"Hmph, the person gave your old man face yesterday, sending a doctor over to save lives. How can I not go to say thanks?"
Wu Dingbo curled his lip, wearing a look that seemed to see right through his dad: "Dad, it’s almost noon, you wouldn’t be going to mooch a meal, would you?"
Wu Jingyi staggered, fuming as he waited for Wu Dingbo: "What nonsense are you spouting? Do I look like someone who is so greedy for food?"
After saying this, he couldn’t be bothered to interact with his annoying son anymore and quickly strode away.
"Dad, wait for me, there’s no shame in loving to eat!"
...
Jinling Guard Office.
When Wu Jingyi saw Chui Gang standing at the entrance talking and laughing with Xiu Xiangchen, he raised his eyebrows and approached to ask, "What are you doing here?"
Chui Gang looked grateful: "Kou Yaowu woke up this morning, I’m here to say thanks. And you, what brings you here?"
"My dad is also here to say thanks," said Wu Dingbo, who had just arrived, with a beaming smile.
"Oh~"
"Oh~"
Xiu Xiangchen and Chui Gang both uttered a meaningful ’oh’.
Just then, the rich scent of food wafted from the courtyard, and Xiu Xiangchen glanced at Chui Gang and Wu Jingyi: "Well, since you both are here to say thanks, let me take you inside," he said.
Wu Jingyi, Chui Gang: "..." They knew the way, really no need for a guide.
...
In the dining room, Xiao Yeyang was sitting at the same table with Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai, while their Jinling Guards were spread out over five tables. At this moment, everyone craned their necks to watch as the kitchen staff was directed to lift several hot pots with steaming red-hot soup onto the tables.
Once the dishes were set, just as everyone was about to start eating, the three newcomers, Wu Jingyi, arrived.
"Yo, what a coincidence we’ve come at the right time. Hurry, add a pair of chopsticks, I haven’t eaten yet."
Xiu Xiangchen and Chui Gang, who had previous experience with freeloading meals, didn’t wait for Xiao Yeyang’s reaction and each found a table to sit down at.
Xiao Yeyang wouldn’t concern himself with them, but now that they had sat down, he had to offer them some basic courtesy.
Wu Jingyi and Wu Dingbo exchanged glances, trying to find a table to squeeze into, but every table was full, and everyone was watching them warily.
As the aroma of the hot pot grew stronger, Wu Dingbo couldn’t hold back any longer, and walked straight to Xiao Yeyang’s table, cheerfully waving his hand: "Lord Xiao, do you still remember me? Back then, we burnt down the Imperial Lingyun Temple together."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at him and said nothing.
Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai leisurely scrutinized Wu Dingbo, who had brazenly sat down beside them.
With his son having blazed a trail, the father certainly had to follow.
Thus, Wu Jingyi also approached with a beaming smile and sat down. Looking at the lavish spread of vegetables and meat on the table, he exclaimed, "I haven’t seen green veggies ever since I came to the border, now I owe Lord Xiao big time for this blessing."
Xiao Yeyang looked at Wu Jingyi and his son with an indefinable expression.
For the sake of a meal, this father and son pair really had no shame.
