Then, Chu Qingzhi applied medicine to Xu Jizhou’s fracture and then fixed it with wooden boards. At the same time, she explained to Chu Qingning, “In the future, if you encounter such a situation, handle it this way.”

Chu Qingning remembered everything and nodded seriously. “Fifth Sister, I understand.”

Not only her but also Jiang Zhaoyong and Ji Hongshan were enlightened.

Taking the opportunity, Ji Hongshan asked, “Miss, can Brother Xu move?”

Chu Qingzhi replied, “He can’t move for now. He has internal bleeding, and any movement will increase blood flow. Let him lie down for a day before walking.”

After saying that, she turned to Chu Qingning. “There are some herbs in the basket. Go and brew the medicine for him to take.”

All the herbs were nourished with spiritual energy by Chu Qingzhi. Each one carried spiritual energy, which could accelerate the recovery of injuries.

Normally, Xu Jizhou’s injury would take at least a month to heal. But with Chu Qingzhi’s medicine, he could recover in three days, and with a few more days to restore his vitality, he would be back to normal.

Chu Qingning replied, “I’ll go immediately.”

Jiang Zhaoyong, hearing that Xu Jizhou had to lie down for a day, became even more upset. Now, as Chu Qingning was going to brew medicine, he immediately followed, saying, “I’ll help.”

Chu Qingning didn’t want Jiang Zhaoyong to follow her. She was nervous just thinking about it. “Why are you following?!”

Jiang Zhaoyong said righteously, “Xu Jizhou is also my classmate. Helping him is the right thing to do.”

His wife was about to be taken away by someone else. How could he sit still?!

Ji Hongshan’s mouth twitched. Jiang Zhaoyong was shameless. He took advantage of the situation.

Chu Qingning thought to herself, Forget it, if he wants to follow, so be it. Although she was nervous, she also wanted to be with Jiang Zhaoyong. “Let’s go-”

“Alright.” Jiang Zhaoyong replied in a clear voice.

Ji Hongshan was speechless.

He felt that this guy was doing it on purpose!

Jiang Zhaoyong followed Chu Qingning and left happily.

Chu Qingzhi said to Ji Hongshan, “Go to his house and get a set of clothes for him to change into. Tell his family too.”

Ji Hongshan bowed to Chu Qingzhi. “Yes, Miss.”

Chu Qingzhi also left.

Ji Hongshan adjusted the bedding for Xu Jizhou and couldn’t help feeling sorry for him. “Brother Xu, you better wake up soon. Otherwise, Jiang Zhaoyong will snatch Qingning away, and your fall would be in vain.”

Chu Qingning and Jiang Zhaoyong went to the kitchen to brew the medicine.

In the kitchen, Li Qingyu and several aunts were busy. When they saw Jiang Zhaoyong, except for Li Qingyu, the others all wore a gossipy expression.

Who is this young man?

How handsome!

Tall too, almost as tall as Jinghong. Quite imposing, not ordinary.

The black robe on him looks smooth and even reflects light. It must be very precious. Rich young man.

1 wonder if this young man is engaged. There are still some older girls in the village. I don’t know if he’d be interested?

Jiang Zhaoyong, being born in the village, was well aware of the spreading and rumor-making abilities of the aunts in the village. He quickly explained, “Aunties, my classmate broke his hand. 1 brought him here for treatment, and since Qingning might be too busy, I came to help.”

Li Qingyu originally wanted to pull his daughter to the side to ask, but when she heard this, she dismissed the idea.

Chu Qingning, feeling nervous from being scrutinized, quickly greeted everyone. Fortunately, the aunts focused their attention on Jiang Zhaoyong, and no one noticed her abnormality.

Jiang Zhaoyong originally wanted to say something to Chu Qingning, but with so many people in the kitchen, he didn’t get a chance. He decided to help with brewing the medicine quietly.

After the medicine was ready, Chu Qingning brought it over for Xu Jizhou to drink.

Coincidentally, Xu Jizhou woke up at that moment.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a girl walking in. Backlit by the door, the girl seemed like a fairy descending to the world, and he was stunned.

Jiang Zhaoyong suddenly took the medicine from Chu Qingning and said, “Qingning, you must be tired. I’ll feed him the medicine.”

He brought the bowl to his mouth and said stiffly, “Drink the medicine.”

Xu Jizhou, feeling a headache and annoyance upon seeing Jiang Zhaoyong, asked, “What are you doing here?”

Jiang Zhaoyong put the medicine bowl aside, “1 brought you here. Not only do you not thank me, but you also act like this. If 1 had known, 1 wouldn’t have bothered to help.”

Xu Jizhou looked around the room. Except for Chu Qingning and Jiang Zhaoyong, there was no one else. So, he shifted his gaze to Chu Qingning. “Miss, where is my classmate?”

Chu Qingning replied gently, “He went back to get your change of clothes. He’ll be back soon. Can you move? Drink the medicine quickly.”

Xu Jizhou tried to move a bit, but his whole body ached. Feeling a bit embarrassed, he said, “I…”

Chu Qingning reassured him, “It’s okay. Let me support you.”

Jiang Zhaoyong quickly stepped in front of Chu Qingning. “Qingning, you’re not strong enough. Let me do it.”

Qingning? Chu Qingning? Xu Jizhou immediately looked at Chu Qingning. “Are you… Miss Qingning?”

His eyes were glued to Chu Qingning, who looked completely different from what he had imagined. Wearing a lemon-colored dress, adorned with a lan flower hairpin, she exuded a pure and elegant aura.

Chu Qingning blinked. “Do you know me?”

She suddenly remembered Ji Hongshan’s words about Xu Jizhou being interested in her. Even though she didn’t recognize him, could it be that this man had seen her during a time she wasn’t aware of?

Xu Jizhou wanted to say it was the first time he saw her, but he lied, “I’ve seen you a few times. I’ve always wanted to get to know you, but considering you’re a young lady, I didn’t dare to approach.”

Jiang Zhaoyong felt sour in his heart. It was all because he lacked education; otherwise, he could have said something more charming. Looking at the situation, it seemed like Qingning wasn’t averse to it.

A sense of crisis was slowly rising in his heart.

Chu Qingning treated Xu Jizhou merely as a patient and felt nothing. “Drink the medicine.”

Jiang Zhaoyong took the initiative to support Xu Jizhou and feed him the medicine first. Otherwise, this cunning guy might make Qingning support him.

Xu Jizhou was currently fragile, and Jiang Zhaoyong didn’t control the force well. As soon as he supported Xu Jizhou, Xu Jizhou coughed up blood.

Chu Qingning was startled and hurried over to help. “Young Master Xu, are you okay?”

Seeing this scene, Jiang Zhaoyong felt like he had caused trouble and obediently stood aside, not daring to make any moves.

Fortunately, Xu Jizhou only coughed up a mouthful of blood and then stopped. Chu Qingning quickly gave him the medicine and had him lie flat on the bed.

Chu Qingning said, “My sister said you need to lie in bed for a day. Don’t move during this day, or your injury won’t heal.”

“I will be careful,” Xu Jizhou said, his gaze following Chu Qingning. He thought, Qingning is patient and kind, not like someone who favors the rich over the poor. Before, he misunderstood her.

Jiang Zhaoyong, seeing Xu Jizhou like this, felt an anxious lump in his heart..
