Chapter 309 Peach Blossom's Old Friend
The man was carried onto the carriage.
Chen Sufen lit up the angry lantern.
Under the light, Liu Yue'e was so scared when she saw the bloody head and legs that she screamed on the spot.
"Hurry, put away the small table and spread the blanket." Tong Huaqiong was worried that the blood would stain the carriage and it would be difficult to clean, and she would not be able to explain to the carriage's owner, Boss Qian.
Chen Sufen suppressed her nausea about the smell of blood and quickly put away the small table for drinking tea and eating. Liu Yue'e shook out the blanket on the seat behind her and spread it flat on the ground.
Qin Qingyou and the Lu family driver carefully laid the injured young man down on the blanket.
"Boss, we'll reach the town after passing through the small woods ahead. Should we leave him in the clinic?" Qin Qingyou asked.
Tong Huaqiong said, "Not yet, I have some hemostatic medicine here, apply it on him first."
Since the boss had hemostatic drugs, Qin Qingyou no longer insisted on sending the man to the clinic.
He was really scared just now, and when the cold wind blew, he found that all the sweat on his body was stuck to his clothes.
"Qingyou, you were scared just now. Calm down first and then we can go." Tong Huaqiong saw that Qin Qingyou was weak after the false alarm, so she decided to let him rest before driving the carriage.
Qin Qingyou nodded and sat in the carriage and smoked his pipe.
Tong Huaqiong closed the carriage tightly and planned to treat and bandage the injured young man.
"Man'er, come with me to the space to get medicine."
Tong Huaqiong said this as she brought Maner into the space.
Chen Sufen and Liu Yue'e looked outside nervously, for they were afraid that Tong Huaqiong and Man'er's whereabouts would be discovered by outsiders.
Soon Tong Huaqiong and Maner came out.
Under Tong Huaqiong's instructions, Maner took out alcohol, anti-inflammatory drugs, hemostatic ointment, gauze, tweezers, scissors and other medicines and tools.
After Tong Huaqiong came out of the space, he began to bandage the other person's wound without stopping.
She was afraid that if she waited too long, the man would die and none of them would be able to explain it.
For some reason, Chen Sufen wanted to vomit when she smelled blood today. Liu Yue'e was so scared that she didn't dare to move forward, so Tong Huaqiong asked Gu Taohua for help.
Gu Taohua approached the injured young man with a lantern, and Tong Huaqiong looked carefully at the young man's wound in the light.
There was a big cut on his forehead, which looked like it was caused by a knife.
Fortunately, the wound has scabbed over and doesn't bleed much.
After checking his forehead and legs, Tong Huaqiong found two arrows on his calves and thighs.
Tong Huaqiong felt that his guess was correct. The young man was being stabbed and shot by arrows. He was being hunted by his enemies.
I don't know where this person came from to deserve such cruel treatment.
This place is not far from Yanguan Town. I wonder if this young man is an acquaintance in the vicinity of Yanguan Town.
Tong Huaqiong tried to figure out his identity and discovered that he had calluses on his hands, showing that he had been working there for a long time.
But who among the farmers would wear expensive brocade?
You can't buy the clothes the young man is wearing without ten taels of silver.
What kind of family would dress like this?
Tong Huaqiong suddenly had an idea and remembered that people who practiced martial arts and swordplay would also have calluses on their hands. She guessed that this young man was a martial artist.
No wonder he is being hunted by his enemies.
"Bring some wet wipes." Tong Huaqiong said.
Chen Sufen turned her head, soaked the handkerchief and handed it to Tong Huaqiong, who carefully wiped the blood off the young man's face.
As the blood stains were wiped away, a handsome face gradually emerged.
At most sixteen or seventeen years old.
Even with a bowl-sized wound on his head, it doesn't affect this boy's appearance.
He and Gu Jingzhe can become sworn brothers and debut as a group to compete for recognition.
"Mom, I've seen him." Gu Taohua exclaimed when she saw the injured man's face clearly.
"Do you know him? Who is he?" Tong Huaqiong asked.
Gu Taohua said, "Mom, do you remember the last time Xu Zaohua and the nanny beside her came to Taohua Dessert to make trouble? He said that Xu Zaohua and the nanny stole his money. I thought he was a hired help from my second brother, and he cheated me out of my money."
When Gu Taohua thought of the money, she wanted to kick this man in the face a few times.
But she remembered that if she met this person again, she would never let him off easily.
Now she had to forgive him even if she didn't want to. Gu Taohua looked at her own hands, afraid that with one punch, this man would become a tourist in the underworld.
"We'll discuss the money after he wakes up. Let's save him first," said Tong Huaqiong.
In any case, this person indirectly resolved the crisis of Taohua Dessert being blackmailed by Xu Zaohua, right?
Tong Huaqiong took out alcohol and carefully disinfected the wound on the young man's forehead. After disinfection, she applied hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs, and then wrapped it with gauze.
Luckily the wound wasn't deep, otherwise it would have required stitches.
Tong Huaqiong doesn't know how to sew.
After bandaging his head, Tong Huaqiong began to treat his leg injury.
"Mom, let me pull out the arrow."
Gu Taohua handed the lantern to her second sister-in-law Liu Yue'e, rolled up her sleeves, disinfected her hands, and pulled out the two arrowheads.
The young man groaned twice and soon fell silent.
Why did Tong Huaqiong feel that her fat daughter was seeking revenge for the money she was cheated out of last time?
After pulling out the arrow, Gu Taohua said, "Mom, this arrowhead is not poisonous, right?"
Tong Huaqiong said: "I don't know either. Seeing that he has not died until now, I guess he is not poisoned."
Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua worked together to disinfect the wound on his leg, stop the bleeding, and then bandaged it.
"The wound has been treated. Whether he can recover depends on his luck." Tong Huaqiong said tiredly with sweat all over his forehead.
Generally speaking, after an injury, the most difficult part is not only stopping the bleeding, but also preventing the wound from becoming inflamed.
If the wound becomes inflamed and tetanus occurs, Tong Huaqiong will be helpless.
Tong Huaqiong prayed that the young man would not have a fever and his wound would not become inflamed. If he could get through the night safely, his life would be saved.
"Qingyou, have you had a good rest? We can go now." Tong Huaqiong lifted the curtain of the carriage and said to Qin Qingyou.
Qin Qingyou put out his pipe and cracked his whip.
The carriage started off again with a clatter.
The carriage had just gone a dozen meters when Maner said, "There's crying over there."
Maner pulled open the curtain, stuck her head out and pointed to a pine forest not far away. She heard the crying coming from there.
Tong Huaqiong and others were so busy dealing with the injured young man on the ground that they didn't notice the crying.
After hearing what Man'er said, everyone stopped talking and the surroundings fell silent.
Chen Sufen opened the window of the carriage. Outside the window, there was no other sound except the gentle breeze and bright moon, let alone crying.
"Maner, did you hear it wrong?" Chen Sufen thought that the child must have heard it wrong and mistook the sound of the wind in the pine forest for crying.
"I didn't hear it wrongly, Yaozu, you heard it too." Maner said to Yaozu.
Yaozu shook his head and said, "I didn't hear anything. You said there was crying. Grandma, let's go. I'm scared."
As he spoke, he sat away from the injured young man.
Man'er said to Tong Huaqiong seriously: "Grandma, there really is crying over there. I really heard it just now."
Considering that Man'er was the boss behind the killing of Tong Dajiao's family in her previous life, and that she was the one who brought out the treasure space in this life, Tong Huaqiong always felt that she was a little extraordinary.
Tong Huaqiong could not ignore her words.
