ling a hint of joy. She probably also knew the reputation of the Shen family in the circle. With the little mistress, the acting head of the Shen family, speaking up, they might be able to "free" them...Patients who can recuperate at my home are almost all "big shots" you can't mess with.
These big shots initially went to great lengths and spent a lot of money to plead for the right to live in my home for convalescence, but they didn't last long before they got scared.
My family's diet is bland. My elder brother and sister are responsible for treatment and dietary therapy respectively, and they are both very strong-willed people. They tell you what to do and what to eat, leaving little room for negotiation. Over time, even the pampered "princes" couldn't take it anymore and tried every trick in the book to escape.
We've all seen this many times.
But Dragon Little Brother, this guy, only came for a day! He actually wants to run away Doesn't he know what condition his body is in!
His voice had been burned by the poison, though I managed to neutralize some of it with my blood. However, his damaged organs and wounds are still very serious, and he needs to rest in bed for a long time.
I guess ninety-nine percent of it is because the doctors at my house told him he needed to recuperate for half a year or something like that, which scared him.
He has a responsibility on his shoulders, and he must be eager to return home.
But we absolutely can't let him run. He has both internal and external injuries. If he doesn't take good care of himself, I'm afraid he might have to practice something like the Corpse Immortal Dao.
He's clearly not being taken care of in Miaowang City. The way he treats his own body shows utter disregard for it. It's obvious he doesn't prioritize his health.
I bellowed, instantly startling the senior brothers and sisters in the guest rooms in the front yard.
The ninth senior brother immediately rushed out, shouting not to move, he went to get a ladder, and you must not fall!
Fifth and Sixth Senior Sisters carried food and bandages, and from afar they saw Young Master Long climb onto the roof. They giggled and said, "Well, even he's afraid of pain Hahaha, his wounds need to be disinfected and changed daily."
"It doesn't look very appetizing, does it" I frowned at the plate Five Senior Sister was holding. The medicinal scent, bitter enough to make my tongue numb just from the smell.
"Fifth Senior Sister said with a self-assured expression, "Good medicine is bitter. This was personally concocted by the eldest senior brother, so not a single drop can be wasted. You have to finish it all."
I peeked into the medicine jar. The dark color... I'd guess the taste wouldn't be much different from poison.
Next to the medicine jar was a small dish filled with homemade candied citrus peel and dates.
This is all to overcome bitterness, how could a man not stand such a small matter
The Ninth Senior Brother quickly brought over a ladder. He was about to climb up, but I stopped him and said, "Let me go. Maybe he just wants to sunbathe."
Long Xiaoge sat on the roof, his hands resting on his knees, panting. A bit of blood seeped from the wound below his collarbone.
I carefully leaned against the ladder, poking my head out from under the tiles and asked, "Long Xiaoge, you're not afraid to take medicine, are you You're the Miao King after all."
He glared at me with narrowed eyes, but said nothing.
"You need to get some good rest now, stay in bed, take your medicine, and eat nourishing food. After detoxifying, you need to recuperate and see if you can heal your throat and internal organs." I said patiently.
"... I don't have that much time." He was getting a little irritable.
"If you don't take care of your health, you'll have even less time later. You are a responsible person... Have you gotten married Have you had children Being unfilial has three major offenses: having no descendants is the greatest. If you don't take care of your health to start a family and build a career, how can you have the face to call yourself King Miao"
He let out a scoff and turned to look at me. "You talk like an old man... So, have you done all of this"
“I… I can’t do this! Don’t change the subject, you have to take good care of your wounds. Your body is the foundation of everything. Without it, you’ll be restricted in everything you do.” I reached out and waved my hand at him: “Come on, let’s go downstairs and have some medicine. Fifth Senior Sister brought it, and Junior Brother Jun personally boiled it. You have to drink every drop, or I’ll beat you.”
Long Xiaoge let out a faint snort, not taking me seriously at all.
I was about to go upstairs and confront him, when he suddenly whispered, "I'm worried that the Dragon King will send people to Miao Wang City to block me. If they can't find me, they might attack my people..."
"Didn't you say the people had all scattered"
"Yes, the people no longer live in the Miao King City, but they have settled down outside. The awareness of unity, cooperation, and vigilance against danger has faded..."
"These people aren't serving you, and you're still thinking about protecting them When something goes wrong, they'll come crawling back with their tails between their legs. You don't need to worry about it, just focus on taking care of your health—"
No sooner had I finished speaking than a voice suddenly came from behind me: "Xiao Yinluo, you're quite good at talking about others, what about yourself What are you doing climbing so high!"
"Whoa My neck went numb, and I felt someone grab the back of my shirt and lift me up. "
Mu Wanchen was actually behind me!
"You, you're back... No, why didn't you tell me when you left! I thought you were at home, and then I heard that you had gone back—" I anxiously wanted to turn around.
On the ladder, I almost lost my footing. Mu Wanchen grabbed me and jumped down. As soon as we landed, he frowned and scolded me: “What are you doing climbing so high Aren't you afraid of falling Is there something important that needs to be said on the roof”
"...I advise Dragon Little Brother to come down and drink the medicine." I sized him up while quickly asking, "Didn't anything happen when you went back I heard—"
Mu Wanchen raised a finger and lightly pressed it against my lips.
"Some things are only meant to be discussed when it's just the two of us... Don't worry, everything is fine for now." Mu Wanchen said in a low voice.
For now, everything is fine.
These few words leave me unsettled.
I inexplicably have this feeling of "being able to dodge the first day, but not the fifteenth."
" ...Little junior sister, what are you thinking about You're spacing out even while eating. Look, you got some on your clothes." Senior brother frowned at me with displeasure.
I hastily set down my bowl and wiped my mouth, only then noticing that everyone else at the table had left. Only Jun Senior Brother remained seated at the head, his gaze fixed on me with a heavy intensity.
"I... Shixiong Jun, have there been any outsiders at your home recently" I moved closer to Shixiong Jun and whispered.
"Your senior brother already finished eating, he just sat here with me. He glanced at me and said, 'That little dragon you brought back, does that count as an outsider' "
"No, it's not this one, it's before! Did anyone strange come to look for my senior brothers and sisters before" I asked anxiously.
If there really were a traitor in my home, my whereabouts would be known to them very clearly, and I would be completely defenseless.
"Shixiong raised an eyebrow, looking at me thoughtfully. "What have you heard from others Strange people Most of the people who come to our house are strange, isn't that normal"
I was taken aback. Brother Jun's tone seemed strange... as if he were hiding something
"Senior Brother, my situation is very awkward now, you know The Dragon King and an old monster want to capture me. These two, one hides in the shadows manipulating things, and the other hides in another world, waiting for the right moment to strike. What if there's a traitor in our family who reveals all my moves—"
"A traitor How could there possibly be a traitor in our family" jun shidi snorted.
He looked down on this kind of statement, which made me quite confused.
Your senior brother should be a very careful and cautious person, he couldn't possibly let danger grow unchecked. His attitude towards this matter is so cold, could it be that he knows something inside...""You're still a child. You have much to learn about the complexities of this world… An upright person is blameless, but possessing something valuable can lead to guilt. Do you understand this"“The...
