The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor

After performing artificial respiration, they began CPR. After a long time, Li Muxia was starting to run out of energy.

The little boy suddenly vomited a large mouthful of water and began coughing violently. Seeing that the little boy had recovered, Li Muxia collapsed to the ground, exhausted.

When Shangguan Jingye and Bai Qingshi saw that the little boy had recovered, their eyes lit up and they quickly went forward to treat him.

The little boy's mother, now free, rushed forward and hugged her son, crying and shouting.

Dongfang Jincheng looked at Li Muxia sitting on the ground, his heart filled with complex emotions. His previous investigation revealed that she had only just begun learning medicine, but judging from Bai Qingshi's reaction earlier, the method Li Muxia used to save the little boy shouldn't have been taught by Bai Qingshi. How could she not even know the methods of the Medical Sage?

Just as Dongfang Jincheng was deep in thought, he noticed Li Muxia's slightly changed expression. Only then did he remember Li Muxia's current physical condition. He also looked at the little boy he had brought up earlier, who was now sitting in a puddle of water.

Li Muxia also realized that she had forgotten she was on her period because she was so focused on saving the person. Now she could clearly feel that her bottom was a complete mess. Looking at everyone present, she didn't know whether to get up or not.

Just as she was caught in a dilemma, she felt a dark blue outer robe appear on her body. When she looked up, she met Dongfang Jincheng's gaze.

Dongfang Jincheng felt a moment of awkwardness. Looking at Li Muxia at such close range, he could clearly see the fine hairs on her face. He had to admit that her skin was very good. The days of traveling had made her skin less fair than before, but it was still delicate, smooth, and flawless. Even at such close range, he couldn't see the pores on her face.

Li Muxia has very beautiful features. Beneath her willow-leaf eyebrows are a pair of large eyes with long eyelashes that make them look very lively. She has a high and delicate nose and a small, exquisite mouth. Apart from her slightly chubby face, she can be described as very perfect.

Li Muxia was momentarily stunned when Dongfang Jincheng draped his coat over her shoulders. However, she quickly recovered and, looking at the handsome face looming before her, it was impossible not to be moved.

She hadn't expected Dongfang Jincheng to give her his outer garment, because in their eyes, she was still a man.

She figured that Dongfang Jincheng probably noticed her clothes were wet and she was wearing light-colored clothing, and that there were already quite a few people around, men, women, and children, so he thoughtfully gave her his coat to avoid making her feel awkward. She had to admit that Dongfang Jincheng was a considerate and warm-hearted man.

She smiled slightly at Dongfang Jincheng and said softly, "Thank you."

Because they were so close, Dongfang Jincheng could feel the gentle warmth in Li Muxia's voice. His face flushed slightly, and he realized that he had been staring at her for a moment. He stood up somewhat awkwardly and said, "Your clothes are wet."

Li Muxia pulled the coat draped over her shoulders tighter, and could smell a pleasant sandalwood fragrance that gave her a sense of peace.

The coat was very large, after all, Dongfang Jincheng was 1.85 meters tall. Looking at the coat that completely covered him, Li Muxia said again, "Thank you for helping me out of this predicament, Young Master Long."

At this moment, Dongfang Jinxuan's mouth was agape, wide enough to fit an egg. What had he just seen? His third brother, who was known for his aversion to women, had actually draped his own coat over a woman's body. In the past, if a woman touched the hem of his coat, he would disgustedly take it off and throw it away. What was going on now? Had his third brother recovered from his illness, or was he possessed?

"It's Doctor Shi and Doctor Xia." A man's voice suddenly came from the crowd, drawing everyone's attention.

Passerby A: "You know them."

The man said, "Of course I know them. They came to our alley yesterday to provide free medical consultations and even cured my mother's back pain, which she had suffered from for many years. And they didn't charge her a penny."

Passerby B: "So, they really are Dr. Shi."

The man rolled his eyes: "Of course, many people in our alley were treated by Doctor Shi and Doctor Xia yesterday. After only one day of taking the medicine, many people's conditions have improved a lot."

Passerby C: "So that's how it is. So the miracle doctor has come to our county. No wonder he can even bring the dead back to life."

After he finished speaking, a heated discussion broke out in the crowd, which Li Muxia and the others naturally heard as well.

After Bai Qingshi finished treating the little boy and gave him a few acupuncture needles, he was about to return to the inn to write a prescription for the boy's mother when he heard someone in the crowd shouting, "Miracle doctor! Miracle doctor!"

He frowned slightly. He had intended to travel discreetly, but now he had made a bigger scene. He glanced at Li Muxia and noticed that he was wearing Dongfang Jincheng's coat. He then remembered and slapped his forehead. How could he have forgotten about this? He quickly said to Li Muxia, "Xia Mu, your clothes are all wet. Go back and change into some clean clothes. We can take care of things here."

Li Muxia also felt uncomfortable being wet, but she didn't refuse and went back to the inn to change her clothes, bypassing the crowd.

When she came out after changing her clothes, her master and the others had already returned and were sitting at the table writing a prescription. The little boy's mother kept thanking them. She didn't see anyone else; they must have been sent away by her master.

He went downstairs to his master's side and saw that Dongfang Jincheng was also there. He said somewhat awkwardly, "Young Master Long, I'm sorry, I got your clothes dirty and I can't return them to you for now. I'll give them to you tomorrow after I wash them."

Upon hearing Li Muxia's words, Dongfang Jincheng understood what she meant by "dirty." His handsome face flushed slightly, and he said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's alright." He had originally intended to say that it was just a piece of clothing and he didn't want it anymore. However, after thinking for a moment, he changed his mind and said, "I have other clothes. It's fine to return them a couple of days later."

Hearing Dongfang Jincheng's words, Li Muxia felt a little relieved.

Seeing that there was nothing more for them to do here, Dongfang Jincheng took Dongfang Jinxuan out for a secret investigation.

After seeing the mother and child off, Li Muxia and the others went out as well. Today they needed to prepare some more supplies and pick up Li Muxia's clothes and hot pot utensils.

When Shangguan Jingye got the hot pot utensils, he kept pestering Li Muxia to make hot pot for dinner that night. Even her master chimed in. Li Muxia had no choice but to agree, as it would be a good opportunity to invite Young Master Long and the others to join them and thank Young Master Long for his help that day.

They took a detour to buy some ingredients and charcoal for hot pot, and returned just as dusk was falling.

After putting everything away, Li Muxia asked Shangguan Jingye to bring all the ingredients for the hot pot to the backyard, as they planned to eat hot pot there. After all, there was no smokeless coal in this era, and eating inside the house could easily lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
