Chapter 1177: Chapter 1177: Words Cannot Express_1 Chapter 1177: Chapter 1177: Words Cannot Express_1 With Tong Sanlang’s assurance that “even if something happens, we will absolutely not pursue the matter,” the doctors began to treat Zhang Family’s injuries.
They first shaved the hair around the wound, then cleaned it, applied medicine, and wrapped it up.
There was no suturing technique available here; if one sustained a wound on the body, all that could be done was to medicate and bandage it. Whether one could survive depended on the will of heaven.
The Medical Clinic had rooms, and Tong Sanlang had Zhang Family stay within the clinic while he hurried back to the Palace.
Upon entering Da’an Palace, Qiao Xiaomai was preparing lunch in the kitchen.
He reported the situation and then began to prepare the medicine after washing the earthenware pot.
Qiao Xiaomai’s Spiritual Spring water couldn’t compare to the Divine Liquid, but it was his only hope. He hoped that by using the Spiritual Spring water to brew the medicine, Zhang Family would pull through safely.
After hearing what Tong Sanlang had said, Qiao Xiaomai was shocked.
Tong Tiehu had come.
He had given Tong Xingda a severe beating and left Zhang Family bleeding and nearly dead from a head injury?
Impressive!
“Your mother is alright, isn’t she?” she asked anxiously.
“Not sure,” Tong Sanlang shook his head, “We can only hope that this Spiritual Spring water works.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai sunk her awareness into her space, trying to retrieve a droplet of the Divine Liquid shaped like a water droplet.
Just like before, no matter how hard she tried, the Divine Liquid remained immovable.
She pursed her lips and stopped talking, continuing with the unfinished meal preparation.
Tong Sanlang sat on a stool at the kitchen doorway, focused on brewing the medicine.
Once the medicine was ready, he poured it into another earthenware pot and then carried that pot away.
Qiao Xiaomai watched his figure leave, pursed her lips, and her small face also darkened.
After she finished cooking, she entered the grand hall with the palace maids, carrying the meal in a food container.
Emperor Yongan was present today as well; he had come to discuss matters relating to Yuchi Country and the Divine Tree Tribe with Yang Wenxiao.
Seeing as they had state affairs to discuss, Qiao Xiaomai was supposed to excuse herself, but noticing her apparent unhappiness, Yang Wenxiao asked her to stay and inquired about what had happened.
“It’s nothing much, just that Grandfather… almost beat Sanlang’s mother to death,” Qiao Xiaomai said softly, recounting the incident.
Yang Wenxiao “…”
Emperor Yongan “…”
Yang Wenxiao tapped gently on the table, “Your family… why does it always produce such people?”
“Barren mountains and treacherous waters produce troublesome folk,” Qiao Xiaomai answered.
“Those words aren’t quite right. Bailu Town has enjoyed good weather and plentiful rain over the past decades and is Daqi’s only treasure land unscathed by natural disasters.” Yang Wenxiao disagreed.
“It’s because Grandfather has an eye for the unique, always choosing the creme de la creme to enter the fold. He used to be plotting a rebellion, so he picked people whose families were not as well-off as the Tong Family’s and who would be easier to control. But ever since you confiscated their properties, they all showed their true colors.”
Qiao Xiaomai spoke somewhat listlessly.
“Then that is their true nature,” Emperor Yongan said, “And their family education is also poor, leading to people who know nothing of propriety, righteousness, integrity, or shame.”
Look at his own Yang Family, where the legitimate children had all been well-taught.
He had been poisoned with the Flower of Hell because of Yang Wenxiao’s caution, but he still couldn’t bring himself to blame Yang Wenxiao.
Both Yang Hao and Yang Zheng had never uttered a word of complaint.
They never complained even about matters of life and death, yet the Tong Family were creating such a fuss over a bit of property.
There was a problem with their nature.
And with their family education.
“Luckily, Sanlang is not bad. If you two have children in the future, you must educate them well,” Emperor Yongan said.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai tugged at the corner of her mouth, “Yes.”
“Alright, since you’re not in the mood to be here, you can leave the Palace and check on the situation,” Yang Wenxiao let her go.
Qiao Xiaomai hesitated for a moment, then stood up.
To check on the current state of Zhang Family.
