She looked back a few more times, and the circle of light followed them.
In the darkness, her expression could not help but become serious.
It was already very late when I got home, and Xiaojie was still awake.
When he saw Cheng Jingmo coming back with Yu Xiangnian on his back, he asked, "Aunt, what's wrong with you?"
"My ankle is sprained." Yu Xiangnian said, "It's nothing serious. Go to bed quickly. We have school tomorrow."
Liu Zhen brought a bottle of medicinal wine from home, "This is the medicinal wine made by Lao Xiao. It can treat injuries caused by bruises. Rub it on your feet and rub it. It will be fine in two days."
Cheng Jingmo accepted it, expressed his gratitude, and sent Xiaojie back to his room to sleep.
They were the only two people left in the main room.
Cheng Jingmo said: "Your knee is broken, don't take a shower today."
"I'm covered in sweat and I have to wipe myself off."
Cheng Jingmo picked up the hot water on the briquette stove and went to the bathroom outside. After a while, he came in and picked up Yu Xiangnian's pajamas, then picked her up and carried her to the small stool in the bathroom.
"Call me when you're done washing." After saying that, he closed the door and went out.
Yu Xiangnian touched the water temperature and found it was very suitable. He thought to himself, this man is not a piece of wood!
While Yu Xiangnian was taking a bath, Cheng Jingmo also took a cold shower under the faucet in the small courtyard.
Yu Xiangnian wiped herself, got dressed, and let Cheng Jingmo carry her back to the bed in the bedroom.
She just checked her whole body and found that her knees and elbows were broken, and the soft tissue of her ankles was injured. They were not serious injuries and could be cured after a few days of rest.
She was getting ready to go to bed when Cheng Jingmo knocked on the door and came in with medicinal liquor, alcohol, and cotton in his hands.
Yu Xiangnian saw Cheng Jingmo's motive, and his eyes were wary, "Don't come over here!"
Cheng Jingmo put these things on the desk beside the bed, "You need to disinfect the area where your skin is broken, otherwise it will become inflamed."
"You used alcohol to disinfect me, it's going to hurt me to death!" Although Yu Xiangnian is a doctor, she is also afraid of pain, "I'll be fine in two days, you don't have to worry about it."
Cheng Jingmo knew that Yu Xiangnian was delicate and precious, but there was nothing he could do about it. "It hurts a little, please bear with it." He opened the alcohol.
"It doesn't hurt a little, it hurts a lot!" Yu Xiangnian moved to the bed in fear, "This kind of wound needs to be disinfected with hydrogen peroxide, I don't use alcohol!"
Cheng Jingmo took the cotton soaked in alcohol and said, "Pull up your trouser legs. It will only hurt for a short while. You can bear it."
Yu Xiangnian knew how painful alcohol disinfection was, and threatened him with a glare, "I can't bear it! Cheng Jingmo, if you dare to use alcohol disinfection for me, I will never finish with you!"
Cheng Jingmo paused while holding the cotton in his hand.
Yu Xiangnian quickly changed his tone to a flattering tone, "I just rinsed it with water and sucked up the water on the wound. It won't become inflamed. Trust me, Cheng Jingmo."
Seeing that Cheng Jingmo was a little moved, Yu Xiangnian added: "I have watched my mother handle wounds since I was a child. I know what to do and I guarantee there will be no inflammation!"
Cheng Jingmo finally put down the cotton in his hand and picked up the medicinal wine sent by Liu Zhen, "You need to apply medicinal wine on the place where you are wet."
Yu Xiangnian also knew that there was such a thing as medicinal wine for bruises. She leaned on the head of the bed and stretched out her feet, "Just rub it on with the medicinal wine. Don't rub it."
Cheng Jingmo sat on the edge of the bed and wiped her ankles with cotton dipped in medicinal wine, "Rub it to make it heal faster."
Yu Xiangnian corrected him, "Cheng Jingmo, this statement is unscientific. The more you rub it, the worse the injury will be. Just rest for this kind of injury."
Cheng Jingmo said: "When we train, if there is a sprain, we just rub it with medicinal wine and rub it and it will be fine."
Talk to him about science, and he will talk to you about experience!
Yu Xiangnian didn't want to argue with Cheng Jingmo, so she simply stretched out her left foot and put it on Cheng Jingmo's thigh, "Then rub this foot!"
It was different from the foot that was swollen like a steamed bun just now.
This foot is as white as jade, the body is long and thin, the toes are like tender lotus root buds, and the fingernails are pink.
Why does Yu Xiangnian even have such beautiful feet?
It dangled on his leg, light and attractive.
Cheng Jingmo's eyes darkened, then he gently grabbed the foot and started rubbing it.
Yu Xiangnian was shocked.
She was just joking with Cheng Jingmo, but she didn't expect this straight man to actually rub her feet, which was quite comfortable.
When Cheng Jingmo pressed the soles of Yu Xiangnian's feet, Yu Xiangnian tickled the insteps of his feet, still chuckling.
The silky little foot curled wildly in his palm. Cheng Jingmo felt that there was a shameless change somewhere. He asked in a calm voice: "Is it okay?"
Yu Xiangnian naturally didn't notice Cheng Jingmo's change. She retracted her feet and said with a smile, "Okay, okay."
Cheng Jingmo stood up unnaturally, "Then I'm going out. If you need anything, call me."
Yu Xiangnian waved to him, "Good night."
Yu Xiangnian's knees and feet hurt and he lay on the bed unable to sleep for a long time.
What happened today showed that Cheng Jingmo still cared about her a little bit.
Thinking of the intimate interaction where Cheng Jingmo rubbed her feet just now, Yu Xiangnian kicked his feet excitedly, and then gasped in pain.
Cheng Jingmo in the other room was also tossing and turning.
Tonight, Yu Xiangnian once again subverted his understanding.
Not only did she know first aid, but her calmness, focus, and fearless persistence when rescuing people made him unconsciously attracted and couldn't help but want to look at her.
But when she got home, her charming nature was revealed again.
Thinking of her fearful look when she saw the bottle of alcohol, Cheng Jingmo raised his lips silently in the darkness.
The next day.
Yu Xiangnian lay on the bed and didn't want to move until there was a sound outside.
She got up, held on to the wall and jumped into the main room with one foot. She saw Cheng Jingmo busy in the kitchen.
You don't get off work until five in the afternoon. It's morning now. Why is Cheng Jingmo back?
"Cheng Jingmo, why are you at home?"
"I'll go home and cook." Cheng Jingmo said and walked out of the kitchen.
Cook?
Didn’t he come back specially to make food for her?
Yu Xiangnian was very happy inside. She grinned and pretended to say, "Oh, I can just eat whatever I want. How can I delay your work."
"I'll just ask you all morning and do the work in the afternoon." Cheng Jingmo said, "I'll take you to wash up."
"No need, I can do it myself."
She was slightly injured, but she was not disabled.
Yu Xiangnian ignored Cheng Jingmo and only heard him busy in the kitchen all morning before finishing the meal.
He deliberately placed a small basin of soup in front of Yu Xiangnian.
Yu Xiangnian looked at the soup with meat and some unknown roots and asked, "What is this?"
"Pork feet boiled with herbs."
"Where did these things come from?"
"I bought the pig's feet and the herbs were given by sister-in-law Liu Zhen."
Yu Xiangnian thought of the saying that you will get what you eat, and you were a little helpless. She asked jokingly: "Is what you bought a pig's right foot?"
Cheng Jingmo said seriously, "Yeah."
Yu Xiangnian really wanted to laugh when he looked like that, "If pigs' feet don't all look the same, how can you tell the difference between right and left?"
Cheng Jingmo is still like that, "I can tell the difference clearly."
