Chapter 397 The Hunter's Little Darling 58
Ma Erya stood at the door, looking at Shuanzi with some anxiety.
Seeing Xie Qingyu approaching, she immediately wanted to go and greet her.
Xie Qingyu glanced at Shuanzi's leg, where the crookedly fixed stick indicated that someone had tried, but to no avail.
Xie Qingyu didn't speak, and Ma Erya became a little flustered.
She had been married to Shuanzi for some time now. Although their life was chaotic, it was all because of her mother-in-law. She was still somewhat satisfied with Shuanzi, so she didn't want anything to happen to him.
The most crucial question is how he will hunt if he becomes lame.
What she fears most now is that Xie Qingyu won't provide treatment.
Although I have doubts about whether Xie Qingyu can be cured, it is the only way at present.
"Please, please save him! I know they all say I did bad things to you before, and I'm willing to apologize. You have to save him, he's innocent!" Ma Erya immediately stopped Xie Qingyu, urging her not to neglect treatment because of this.
However, she was probably overthinking it; Xie Qingyu had no intention of not saving her.
"Did you hurt your leg? You should definitely immobilize it." Xie Qingyu said, touching Shuanzi's leg. Seeing the sweat on his face, she knew that he must have injured a bone, but she still asked.
"Yes." Shuanzi spoke with some difficulty, spitting out each word one by one, "My right leg, calf, hurts a lot."
"You tied these sticks wrong, they're all crooked. Don't you want your legs anymore?" Xie Qingyu retorted.
Even though there was no doctor on the mountain, everyone present felt that Xie Qingyu's attitude was normal; it was just the kind of tone a doctor might use.
No one answered Xie Qingyu's question until Shuanzi looked at Ma Erya.
When Shuanzi's mother arrived later, she immediately recognized Ma Erya as the culprit. This woman had caused a lot of trouble since marrying into the family, making the house a mess. Now she dared to joke about her son's leg. Shuanzi's mother was furious and went up to teach Ma Erya a lesson.
Of course, Ma Erya was no pushover either; the two women, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, went back and forth, neither giving an inch.
"If you keep arguing, I won't get treatment." Xie Qingyu's words silenced them both.
Xie Qingyu had some experience in this area. She found two thin planks in the pile of firewood that Tu Shen had chopped, and also took off the sticks from his legs, picking out a few straight ones to use as spares.
Then we used our hands to hold his legs in place.
After all, there's nothing better to use than the most primitive and fixed method.
This time, Xie Qingyu directed Tu Shen to tie it up. She reached out to fix the position of the wooden board and rope, and then let Tu Shen tie it. When tying it, you have to use enough strength to ensure that the wooden board does not shift, but you can't use too much strength to prevent secondary injury.
By the time he finished, Tu Shen was covered in sweat.
They set it up right at the entrance, and before they knew it, it had attracted a lot of people.
After they finished tying things up, Shuanzi's mother came over with some things.
She had smoked some meat herself and brought it along as payment for medical expenses.
Xie Qingyu didn't stand on ceremony and accepted it directly.
"This leg needs to be taken good care of. It can't touch the ground for at least fifteen days, and it can't run or jump for two months, otherwise it will definitely become lame." Xie Qingyu said bluntly. Shuanzi, who had initially been hoping for the best, immediately gave up all other ideas and even had to be carried back by others.
After everyone at the courtyard gate had left, Tu Shen stepped forward and kissed Xie Qingyu, saying, "My wife is truly amazing!"
Tu Shen's praise was heartfelt. He could even understand his cousin's thoughts. No man wouldn't want a wife like Xie Qingyu. Luckily, he acted early.
"Okay~"
"I thought you might be reluctant to save her." Tu Shen was referring to Ma Erya's situation. After all, they all knew that Ma Erya hadn't lost her memory, and Shuanzi wasn't a good person when he proposed to her.
If Xie Qingyu really doesn't save him, Tu Shen might feel a little sorry for Shuanzi, but he definitely won't say a word of disagreement.
He supports whatever decision Xie Qingyu makes.
"After all, it's the livelihood of the whole family." Besides, what Xie Qingyu just said could also subtly interfere and make Ma Erya's life more fulfilling in the future.
"You're beautiful inside and out, that's you." Tu Shen hugged the person and kissed them again and again.
If it weren't for the fact that he still had to make dinner, Tu Shen would have liked to carry Xie Qingyu back to the room and put her in bed.
Xie Qingyu's calm and collected command was incredibly captivating; just hearing her commanding voice filled him with excitement.
But no matter what, Xie Qingyu's stomach had to be filled before he was full.
Besides, winter is coming, and he'll have plenty of time to eat.
The heavy snow on the mountain lasted for several days at a time, during which Xie Qingyu and Tu Shen did not go out.
Tu Shen no longer needed to go hunting; all his energy could only be released in bed, which made Xie Qingyu feel both happy and uncomfortable.
The happy times are the joyful ones, but the painful ones are that her sleep schedule is now completely reversed, she doesn't distinguish between day and night, and spends most of her time in bed.
And following this trend, Tu Shen even made increasingly outrageous demands.
Xie Qingyu could no longer bear it and strongly requested to rest for two days.
Tu Shen had no choice but to agree.
However, during her two days of rest, Xie Qingyu discovered what Tu Shen had been busy with lately.
The moment Xie Qingyu stepped out of her room after the snow, she received a fox fur cloak.
The cloak was clearly made by Tu Shen himself. Perhaps because the foxes he hunted were of different colors, the cloak was not uniform in color; it was white on top and red at the bottom, which was quite a nice combination.
Processing these furs is not easy, especially if you want to make them into clothes, which requires various complicated procedures. So Xie Qingyu never expected that Tu Shen would make this for her.
"Do you like it?" Tu Shen looked at Xie Qingyu with some anticipation.
He learned this skill from an old hunter so that he could make it for Xie Qingyu himself. He felt from the beginning that Xie Qingyu was more suited to such elegant fox fur, and now it seems that he was right.
White fur surrounded Xie Qingyu's face, making it impossible to tell whether her skin or fur was whiter.
When Xie Qingyu looked at him with joyful eyes, it made his throat dry. He completely forgot his promise and picked up Xie Qingyu and went into the house.
When the outside is bitterly cold and everything is white, the inside is also covered in white snow.
Tu Shen discovered the advantage of this cloak at this moment. When Xie Qingyu, who had no other clothes on, was placed on the cloak, the visual impact was already at its maximum.
It's like a delicacy, making you eager to taste it.
