Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 263 - 261

The next day, Xiao’er prepared to go to the jewellery shop to check on the renovation progress.

As the carriage passed by Liuyue Lane, Master Lin suddenly ran out, narrowly escaping being trampled by the horses.

Xiao’er lifted the curtain and saw his panicked expression. A bad premonition rose in her heart: "Master Lin, are you okay? Why are you so flustered?"

"Doctor, I need to find a doctor. Yan’er has bled a lot!" Master Lin bypassed the carriage and ran forward again.

Hurriedly, Xiao’er jumped off the carriage, "Zhao Yong, accompany Master Lin to find Doctor Luo, I will go check on Miss Lin."

Zhao Yong hesitated before nodding, after glancing at a hidden guard in a distant corner.

When Xiao’er reached the Lin family, the front gate was wide open, a faint smell of blood reached her nose. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"Yan’er, wake up. The doctor will be here soon. Yan’er, don’t sleep!" Mrs. Lin kept patting Lin Yan’er’s face, trying to wake her up.

As soon as Xiao’er entered, she saw a ladder leaning against the wall, and Lin Yan half-lying unconscious on Mrs. Lin’s body. Her face was as pale as paper, her lips devoid of any color, her skirt was stained red with blood, a shocking sight.

What happened? Did she commit suicide by jumping off the wall? Observing the pool of blood seeping out from under Lin Yan, was this a case of massive hemorrhage?

Xiao’er didn’t have time to think further and quickly checked her breath, it was extremely weak! Her life was in grave danger!

The last two Ashoka fruits had been made into pills. She had given one to Shangguan Xuanyi, and the other to Brother Ri.

All she had left was a vial of Ashoka fruit extract – "tiger balm", which was an elixir of a hundred pills that could treat ailments and strengthen the body.

Xiao’er promptly put three pills into her mouth, then fed her a pill made from Ashoka’s leaves, hoping for a miracle. The Ashoka leaves had a blood-stopping and wound-healing effect, she only hoped they could stop this massive bleeding from the miscarriage.

"Mrs. Lin, the ground is cold, let’s bring Miss Lin back to the room." Xiao’er spoke to Mrs. Lin, who was only trying to wake up her daughter.

The sheer amount of blood suggested that Lin Yan had certainly miscarried, and those who had just given birth were most susceptible to the cold.

Hearing this, Mrs. Lin seemed to regain her senses, "Right, the ground is cold! We should go back to the room, back to the room!"

When Mrs. Lin tried to lift her daughter, she found herself lacking the strength.

"Let me!"

Xiao’er carefully lifted Lin Yan.

"Which room is Miss Lin’s?"

"This way, let me lead you!" Mrs. Lin hurriedly led Xiao’er into the room, arranging the bedding on the bed.

"Mrs. Lin, could you find a set of clean clothes for Miss Lin to change into? First, tuck her in with a quilt, I will go heat some water so we can clean her up."

"All right." Mrs. Lin complied, following every instruction.

Xiao’er found the kitchen, added some water to the pot, then found the flint to light the firewood.

Xiao’er tried to pick thin twigs to put into the stove, making the fire blaze. A pot of water boiled very quickly.

She found a clean copper basin, poured the boiling water into it, then soaked the basin in a large water tank to cool the water quickly.

Xiao’er had heard that puerperae, women who have just given birth, need to wash their hands and wipe their bodies with boiled water. Although Xiao’er believed that the water from her space didn’t need to be boiled, others wouldn’t know that. She didn’t want Mrs. Lin to think she only heated the water until it was half-boiled.

Since she was helping, she would be thorough and considerate, and wouldn’t let people feel like she was just going through the motions.

Xiao’er brought the basin of water into the room: "Mrs. Lin, I’ve cooled the water in the tank. The water in the tank has been dirtied and is not suitable for drinking anymore, you will need to fetch fresh water later."

"All right, I understand. I appreciate your thoughtfulness." Mrs. Lin had just helped her daughter change her clothes, and noticed that her daughter’s bleeding had stopped. Although her face was very pale, it looked better than before, and most importantly, her breathing was heavier.

Before this girl arrived, she could hardly detect her daughter’s breathing. She had been with her daughter the entire time and knew that her daughter’s changes were due to the few pills this girl had fed her.

"Mrs. Lin, please help Miss Lin clean up first, the doctor should be here soon."

"All right, I’ll take care of it. You, as a young girl, should not deal with these matters. I am truly grateful for your help earlier." She realized that she had been too stunned to stop Xiao’er from carrying her daughter. Despite being a young girl, Xiao’er had managed to lift her daughter, whom she herself couldn’t lift.

"I will go and cool down the remaining half pot of water and bring it in."

Mrs. Lin had already wiped her daughter’s body clean with a fresh towel while changing her clothes. Yet as the towel had been dry, she wasn’t able to clean thoroughly enough, there were still some traces of blood on her daughter’s thighs.

Mrs. Lin wiped her daughter’s body with a warm towel again and changed her menstrual pad.

Doctor Luo had also arrived by then.

Doctor Luo carefully felt her pulse for a while, then retracted his hand and walked out: "Did the girl take any medicine?"

"Yes, I felt the situation was quite urgent when I arrived, so I gave her some medicine first." Xiao’er nodded.

"Doctor, how is my daughter now?"

"Miscarriage, massive hemorrhage, the bleeding has stopped now. Fortunately we were able to stop the bleeding in time, or she would be dead by now! Why did you wait so long to call the doctor?"

"As soon as we got up and stepped out of the house, we immediately went to get a doctor." Master Lin was also regretful. They had let their guard down, thinking their daughter was fine.

After comforting her all night, she agreed not to do anything foolish, only then did the husband and wife go to sleep.

They didn’t expect that she had just been biding her time.

"Is there any further danger to my girl’s life?" Despite hearing from the two that their daughter was no longer in danger, Master Lin, seeing her face as white as paper, still could not feel at ease.

"The bleeding has stopped, as long as there is no further heavy bleeding, there will be no threat to her life. I will prescribe two prescriptions, one is for daughter to take now, the other will be for her physical recovery later. Go to the pharmacy and get the medicine. Let the patient rest well, avoid being stimulated, catch cold, she will soon recover."

"Doctor, can my daughter still have children in the future?" Many people who have had heavy bleeding can no longer get pregnant, her daughter is young and just starting her life. She hoped this wouldn’t ruin her chances of having a family someday!

"No, you are lucky. The medicine this girl gave is a miracle elixir. Your daughter is simply weakened from the miscarriage and excessive blood loss."

Mrs. Lin heaved a sigh of relief on hearing this.

"Thank you Miss Shen, and Doctor Luo for saving the life of my daughter."

"Don’t thank me, I didn’t do much. Besides, I only came here because of this girl." Doctor Luo said.

Xiao’er was dumbfounded on hearing this, Doctor Luo, you are too straightforward.

"Thank you, Doctor Luo, for taking the trouble to come at such short notice." Xiao’er said playfully.
