The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Chapter 25 Wounded and Entering the Mansion

Mo Liuyun stepped forward but did not make a move. Instead, he asked Ling'er to check on his injuries, reminding her that one should always be wary of others.

“Master, this person is 17 years old and has multiple external injuries, which are not serious. However, he has a hidden ailment, which should be caused by his early martial arts practice. He has also been poisoned by a muscle-softening powder, which can be taken as a calming pill,” Ling’er said.

Hearing Ling'er say this, it seemed the person was truly injured, not feigning it. Mo Liuyun squatted down, turned the person over, and saw that although the person was dressed in rags and had abrasions on their face, they had striking features, and small wounds on their pale face were still bleeding. It must have been caused by scratches from grass or branches along the way. Well, as the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, so Mo Liuyun took out a Qingxin Pill, took out a water pouch from their pack, and then changed the water in their space to a cup of ordinary water. They fed the medicine to the person and waited by the side to see what to do when the person woke up. After about half a cup of tea's time, the person woke up with a light cough.

Mo Liuyun was dressed as a woman at the moment, but thinking that she was not far from the manor, she changed back into her manor attire, except that she wore a face mask to cover the red spots on her face. She stepped forward to help the man up, gave him some water, and asked softly, "Young master, I don't know why you fainted by the roadside. I know some medicine. This is a desolate place with few people and is close to the mountains. I was afraid that there might be wild animals in the mountains, so I waited here for you to wake up before making any plans."

"I was being chased and fled all the way here. I was poisoned and accidentally rolled down the hillside. I struggled to get here, but I have no strength left. Thank you for saving me, young lady. May I ask your name? I will definitely repay you in the future."

Mo Liuyun said, "There's no need for repayment. It was just a small favor, an act of kindness. The poison from the muscle-softening powder has been neutralized, and you'll be back to normal after a short rest."

The man said again, "Thank you, young lady. If fate allows, I will repay your life-saving grace in the future. Please leave quickly, young lady. To be honest, I have offended a powerful and influential person, and I do not want to implicate you."

Having said that, he stood up unsteadily, bowed deeply to Mo Liuyun, and was about to leave when he collapsed to the ground again after taking two steps. Seeing this, Mo Liuyun went over to help him up and was about to speak.

The man said urgently, "Miss, please leave quickly. To tell you the truth, I have offended the owner of Chunfeng Tower. He must be catching up with us by now. Saving my life is already a great favor, and I cannot implicate you!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Liuyun exclaimed, "Like a spring breeze? Very good! The enemy of my enemy is my friend. It seems I have no choice but to save him!"

He then said, "No problem, my home is nearby. Let's see this through to the end. Come with me." After saying this, Mo Liuyun helped the man up and walked back the way he came. When they arrived at the side gate, Mo Liuyun said, "Wait here for me. I will come to pick you up later."

The injured young man asked, "Are you sure you won't implicate the young lady?"

Mo Liuyun: "I live in a remote place, so no one will come. I just need to make some arrangements. Please wait a moment!"

Mo Liuyun entered the gate and walked into the courtyard. Lian'er was fetching water. When she saw her return, she threw the bucket aside and rushed over to hug her: "Miss, you're finally back."

Mo Liuyun patted Lian'er's head and asked, "Has anything happened these past few days?"

Lian'er said, "No, everything is fine!"

"That's good. Lian'er, go and prepare a side room. I brought back an injured person. I'll help him in."

“Miss, are you alright?” Lian’er asked hurriedly.

"I'm fine, you go ahead and boil some water," Mo Liuyun instructed.

“Yes, Miss, I’ll go right away,” Lian’er replied.

Mo Liuyun came out again and led the person inside. Lian'er had finished getting ready and helped Mo Liuyun carry the person to the side room. Lian'er then brought in a basin of hot water, and Mo Liuyun planned to treat his wounds.

He then said, "Young master, please take off your shirt, and I will treat your wound."

Upon hearing this, the injured young man seemed startled and hurriedly tugged at his outer garment, saying, "Miss, these are just superficial wounds. I'm afraid they'll offend your eyes. I can take care of them myself!" Looking closely at the slightly reddened tips of his ears, Mo Liuyun thought: He really is a pure and innocent young man.

Mo Liuyun remembered what Ling'er had said, that the external injury wasn't serious, so she stopped forcing herself. She also knew that men and women had always been different, and that this couldn't be changed in a short time.

Mo Liuyun said, "My surname is Mo, and this is my maid Lian'er. May I ask your surname, young master? And how should I address you?"

“My surname is Ji, and my given name is Wushuang. Miss Mo and Miss Lian’er are very polite. If you do not mind, you may call me Wushuang,” Wushuang replied.

Mo Liuyun nodded: "Then you can handle it yourself. If you need any help, just let us know. We're heading out now."

"Lian'er, come on, I bought you some delicious snacks." Mo Liuyun beckoned to Lian'er, and the two, mistress and servant, turned and left. After watching them leave, Wushuang took off his outer garment and cleaned his wounds with water. He didn't apply any medicine; as someone who had fled, he certainly didn't have any such things on him. But the wounds were real, and although they weren't deep, the pain was real. How many years had it been since he'd been injured? Ouch! It really hurt like hell.

Mo Liuyun took out the snacks and handed them to Lian'er. He then took out a set of men's clothing from his package. Actually, he bought the clothes from a clothing store on the way back. He couldn't keep wearing the same clothes when he was going to cooperate with Wangjiang Pavilion, so he bought several sets. Today, he saw that Wushuang's clothes were torn, so he thought he would ask Lian'er to send him a set.

Just as Wushuang finished tidying up, there was a knock on the door. Lian'er pushed the door open and came in, carrying a tray with a set of clothes, a bottle, and some white cotton strips on it. Lian'er placed the tray on the table and said, "Young Master Ji, these are the clothes prepared for you, as well as some wound ointment from my young lady."

Wushuang said, "Thank you, Miss Lian'er."

Lian'er said, "No need to thank me, it was prepared by my young lady. I'll come back later to get the dirty clothes." After saying that, she turned around and left, closing the door behind her.

Wushuang picked up the wound ointment, smelled it, and then treated the wound. After applying it, the wound felt cool and refreshing, and it didn't hurt as much when she moved it. She also applied medicine to her face. She couldn't let her face be ruined. This time, she had made a huge sacrifice. She would have to ask her master for more money when she got back.

For dinner, Mo Liuyun prepared a dish of shredded pork with green peppers and a stir-fried vegetable dish. Remembering that Wushuang was injured and couldn't eat spicy food, she also cooked a pot of porridge. After the porridge had boiled for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, she used a small pot to fry some minced meat in oil. Then she turned around and went to her room, actually taking a few preserved eggs from the kitchen. When she got to the kitchen and peeled the preserved eggs, Lian'er's eyes widened as she looked at the black duck eggs and said, "Miss, are these eggs spoiled?"

"No, this is called preserved egg. It can be used in porridge or as a cold dish. You'll see when you try it. Young Master Ji is injured, so I'll make him some preserved egg and lean pork porridge, which is more nutritious!" Mo Liuyun said, peeling the preserved egg and chopping it up. He then added it to the porridge along with the stir-fried minced pork, seasoning it with a little salt. When the porridge thickened slightly, he sprinkled in some chopped greens, filling the air with a rich aroma.

Lian'er swallowed hard. It smelled so good. Mo Liuyun chuckled and said, "Young Master Ji can't finish this pot of porridge by himself. If you want some, help yourself. You take the dishes out first, and I'll go and bring the porridge to Young Master Ji."

Mo Liuyun took a large bowl, poured out half of the porridge, and gave the other half to Lian'er. He then took an empty bowl and a spoon, placed them along with the porridge on a tray, and sent them to Wushuang.

She knocked on the door, then pushed it open and went in. Seeing Mo Liuyun enter, Wushuang quickly came over to take the tray, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, Miss!"

Mo Liuyun said, "It's nothing serious. Has the wound been treated?"

"The medicine has already been applied," Wushuang said.

"That's good. Here's some congee with preserved egg and lean pork. You're injured, so have some congee for now. Get some rest after you finish your congee." With that, he turned to leave.

Wushuang said, "Aren't you going to ask me why I offended the Green King?"
