Chapter 40
The gate of the fence is ajar, and the vegetable beds on all sides are lush.

"Old doctor! Miss Luo is here to see you!"

Luo Jiaojiao pushed open the fence gate, and led Bo Langjun and the two into the yard.

"It's Gillian!"

A gray-haired old man appeared at the door of the house.His white hair fluttered in the wind, and he had a smile on his face.

"Uncle!" Luo Jiaojiao's nose soured, and tears came down.

"Jiaojiao! Uncle is incompetent! Can't cure your sister's poison!" The old man wiped his eyes and hugged Luo Jiaojiao who threw herself into his arms.

Luo Jiaojiao couldn't control her emotions anymore and burst into tears.

"Son! There is always a way! Stop crying!" The old doctor gently patted Luo Jiaojiao's back.

"Ok!"

Luo Jiaojiao wiped away the tears from her face, and then introduced Lord Bo Lang to the old doctor.

Bo Lang's master and servant saluted the old man.The old man stared at Bo Langjun for a while and said, "Come in and let me see your injury."

Jiang Yu helped Bo Langjun into the old doctor's room and saw that there were several layers of shelves on the four walls.The shelves are full of various medicinal herbs.

The old man sat on the bed.He motioned Bo Langjun to sit on the tree stump beside the couch.

Jiang Yu helped Bo Langjun take off his shirt.Luo Jiaojiao turned her back and walked to the opposite shelf to look at the herbs on it.

"The incision is not shallow! Fortunately, it didn't hurt any bones." The old doctor pressed Bo Langjun's wound.Bo Langjun gritted his teeth, held back the pain and didn't make a sound.

"A-Jiao! Bring the blue porcelain vase in the low cabinet on the right!" The old doctor called to Luo Jiaojiao.

Luo Jiaojiao walked to the low cabinet and opened the door.There are many medicine bottles in the cabinet.When she saw a palm-sized blue porcelain bottle, she reached out and took it out.

Jiang Yu walked over and took it in his hand, and then handed it to the old man.

The old man opened the porcelain bottle, dipped a piece of white feather into the ointment and applied it to the wound on Bo Langjun's shoulder and back.Bo Langjun felt the wound cool down and felt much more comfortable.

"Thank you! I wonder if you have any ointment that can cure blisters on the soles of your feet?" Bo Langjun's soles were so uncomfortable that he had to ask for ointment.

"Your body is precious, why bother to make this trip! Wouldn't it be easy for Jiaoer to ask for the medicine back?" The old man put the ointment in Bo Langjun's hand and said.

"Will it leave a scar?" Jiang Yu asked worriedly.

"Go get the smallest white porcelain bottle and apply it to your wounds at night before you go to bed!"

Before the old doctor finished speaking, Luo Jiaojiao had already taken out the small bottle of ointment.

"There are two beds in the next room, you go!" The old doctor closed his eyes.

Jiang Yu helped Mr. Bo, but when he was about to salute, he was stopped by the old man.

"In the mountains and fields, there is no need to be polite!"

Luo Jiaojiao took the porcelain bottle and walked out of the old doctor's room first.The three of them entered another room, and there was a bedside table between the two beds.There is a tea set on the cabinet.

"Hey! I'm exhausted!"

Luo Jiaojiao put the white porcelain bottle in Jiang Yu's hand, then threw herself on the bed and closed her eyes.

Jiang Yu supported Bo Langjun to sit on another bed.He took off Bo Langjun's shoes and socks, and looked at the blisters on Bo Langjun's soles with heartache.

"This subordinate will boil water for you to soak your feet! You lie down for a while!" Jiang Yu helped Bo Langjun take off his coat, and then covered him with a quilt.

Bo Langjun lay down for a while, then turned to look at Luo Jiaojiao.Luo Jiaojiao lay motionless on the bed.

Could it be that she was really asleep?Bo Langjun turned his head to look at the roof of the house and thought to himself.

Jiang Yu brought a steaming wooden basin and placed it beside Bo Langjun's bed.

Bo Langjun sat up slightly sideways, and tested the water temperature with his toes.The water was warm enough, and Bo Langjun put his feet in the basin.

Jiang Yu helped Bo Langjun wash his feet, and then gave him medicine.

Mr. Bo Lang became sleepy, and he fell asleep next to the pillow.

Jiang Yu grilled sweet potatoes in the boiled stove.He was filled with a wooden tray and brought into the room.

"Wow! Baked Sweet Potatoes!"

As soon as Jiang Yu put the sweet potatoes on the table, Luo Jiaojiao opened her eyes and crawled up.She sat down at the table and began to eat.

When Jiang Yu woke up Mr. Bo, there were only three sweet potatoes left on the table.

"Is this edible?" Bo Langjun asked as he sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Luo Jiaojiao's half-peeled sweet potato.

"Have you never eaten it? Come! Try it!" Luo Jiaojiao put the sweet potato in Bo Langjun's hand.

Bo Langjun suddenly got his finger scalded by the hot sweet potato, and almost threw the sweet potato away.Fortunately, Luo Jiaojiao reacted quickly and caught it with her hand.

"If you become a poor man, you will starve to death!" Luo Jiaojiao blew on the sweet potato, and handed it to Bo Langjun.

Bo Langjun pinched the sweet potato with two fingers and looked at it for a long time before taking a small bite.

"Mmm! Not bad!" Bo Langjun was also very hungry, and thought the taste was not bad.

"How could someone as noble as Lang Jun become a poor man?"

Jiang Yu looked at Luo Jiaojiao, who was walking back to the table, who was peeling sweet potatoes, and said angrily.As soon as he finished speaking, his mouth was blocked by the sweet potato in Luo Jiaojiao's hand.

"Who can tell? I heard that Empress Lu has already killed four princes!"

"Cough cough!"

Bo Langjun, who was eating sweet potatoes, choked on Luo Jiaojiao's words.He covered his mouth and coughed violently.

"Oh! I'm just talking!" Luo Jiaojiao ran to the bed and patted Bo Langjun's back and laughed.

"Don't! Don't shoot! It hurts!" Bo Langjun finally stopped coughing, and pushed away Luo Jiaojiao beside him.

"Sorry! I forgot that you were injured!" Luo Jiaojiao returned to her bed and sat down apologetically.

Jiang Yu poured Bo Langjun a cup of hot water.Bo Langjun took two sips and put it down.

"Aren't you sleeping yet?" Bo Langjun wanted to apply the ointment that would not leave any scars, but he saw Luo Jiaojiao sitting on the edge of the bed and staring at the window in a daze.

"You guys don't sleep, how can I take off this suit of clothes?" Luo Jiaojiao was waiting for Bo Langjun and Mr. Bo to fall asleep before taking off her clothes and going to bed.

"Jiang Yu!" Bo Langjun turned around and said.

Jiang Yu simply walked out of the room and stood outside the door.

"Don't turn around!"

Luo Jiaojiao quickly took off her clothes and got under the quilt.

Mr. Bo Lang sat for a long time and did not see Luo Jiaojiao moving, so he turned to look.Luo Jiaojiao was already fast asleep.

"Jiang Yu! Apply the medicine!" Mr. Bo Lang yelled at the door angrily.

Jiang Yu walked into the room and helped Bo Langjun take off his clothes and apply ointment.He was delighted to find that his master's wound was less red and swollen.

This old doctor's ointment is so effective, ask for more when you leave, in case of future troubles!Jiang Yu looked at the ointment in his hand and smiled.

"Clothes!" Bo Langjun found that Jiang Yu was letting him dry, just staring at the ointment and smiling, feeling that Jiang Yu had become different since Luo Jiaojiao appeared.Not only did he talk more, but he also became emotional in his actions.

Jiang Yu hurriedly put on the jacket for Bo Langjun, and helped him to sleep on the pillow.

Moonlight shines through the windows into the house.Bo Langjun looked at the night sky full of stars and moon, and his heart became more peaceful than ever.

Luo Jiaojiao's words lingered in his mind, making him even more determined to support the acting king.

Dai Wang is benevolent and can treat princes and generals leniently, but other kings may not be like this.

Thinking of this, Mr. Bo Lang showed a smile on his face.Who wouldn't want such a master to lead the country?
