Chapter 267: Chapter 267: Own Skills, Others Wouldn’t Believe Even If Told

Yuan Yuxun turned to look at his grandson sleeping on the kang. "He can finally sleep peacefully this afternoon, no more crying about stomachaches or feeling cold."

Yunyi stepped forward to take his pulse. "He needs to continue taking the medicine for two more days. His constitution is too weak. Afterward, don’t let him go outside for now."

Yuan Yuxun, upon hearing Yunyi’s instructions, nodded in agreement, feeling much relieved.

He was filled with immense regret. Why did he have to go against his family in the first place? Even if he had learned just a little from his family members, he wouldn’t have been so helpless yesterday.

Yunyi pointed to the items she had brought. "Hide these food supplies somewhere."

Yuan Yuxun glanced at his grandson on the kang, lacking the courage to refuse. "Thank you."

He truly hadn’t expected that, despite never having done a wrong thing in his life, he would end up in such a predicament.

Seeing that the child was alright, Yunyi also felt relieved. "Old Master, let me take your pulse as well. I’ll bring you some medicinal decoctions when I come back later." She continued, "Your health... if it isn’t managed, what will become of Yuan Zining in the future? Entrusting Zining to anyone else wouldn’t be as reassuring as having you care for him, don’t you agree?"

Old Sir Yuan nodded, his eyes red-rimmed. "Then I shall trouble you."

He had come to terms with it now. This favor couldn’t be repaid anytime soon, he realized, and could only console himself with the thought that an abundance of debts wouldn’t crush him.

After taking Old Sir Yuan’s pulse, Yunyi spoke, "Do you know of the Qiao Family in Hai City?"

Yunyi said nothing more. After all, if she spoke of her abilities, others wouldn’t believe her anyway. But having received their ancestral treasures, she naturally had to keep her promise.

As she entered the deep mountains, snowflakes began to fall again. She quickened her pace to the meat-smoking spot, replenished the firewood, and this time meticulously arranged several interconnected tinder bundles. This would ensure the fire wouldn’t extinguish, even if she couldn’t return by morning. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

In the hospital, Deng Xiaojie was slumped on the hospital bed, utterly disheartened.

The doctor treating her said her facial injuries were quite severe. Even with the best scar removal treatments, it would likely be difficult to avoid scarring.

When she heard this, she felt as if the sky was falling. Now filled with immense regret, she wondered why she hadn’t just remained a good educated youth. Why did she have to seek revenge against Chuyunyi, only to end up like this? Originally, she had thought that even if forced to marry Pockmarked Zhang, she would find a thousand ways to return to the city. But in this ghastly state, how could she return to the city?

The brigade leader stood in the hospital room, looking at the two educated youths—one disfigured, the other with a broken leg—his face etched with worry. "What the hell is all this trouble?"

He had done everything he could. After dealing with this mess all night, he was exhausted. He planned to crash at the hospital for the night and return in the morning.
