149 Worried About Cousin’s Leg Pain

Yu Youyao bit her lip, feeling terrible. “But Cousin is in a lot of pain…”

Her cousin had many secrets, but he did not deliberately hide them from her. In the past, she only knew that Uncle Sun knew some medical skills, but after interacting with her cousin, she also knew that Uncle Sun was the descendant of the “King of Medicine”. His medical skills were not inferior to Imperial Physician Hu’s in the palace, and few people could compare to him. He said that her cousin’s leg illness was incurable, so it was probably really incurable.

Uncle Sun sighed. “It can’t be helped.”

“What should Cousin do then?” Yu Youyao panicked, and tears welled up in her eyes again. She was about to cry.

Tears welled up in her eyes and trembled slightly. They were about to overflow from her eyes. Zhou Linghuai’s heart ached, and he felt his heart tremble terribly, making him feel bitter. “Don’t cry. Didn’t you hear Uncle Sun say that the more painful my legs are, the better they are? I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair.”

If his legs didn’t recover, he probably wouldn’t live long.

In the past, he had only wanted to endure for three to five years and take revenge for his family. Even if he died, it would be a clean death.

But now, he was filled with greed, anger, infatuation, and desire. If he didn’t feel satisfied after three to five years, it would definitely take a long time.

Yu Youyao tried her best to hold back her tears and not let them fall. She felt terrible, so she squatted in front of her cousin and buried her face in his knees. “Cousin, I’ll definitely think of a way to treat your leg. Otherwise, you’ll suffer for the rest of your life.”

As she spoke, she suddenly thought of the “Divine Physician Xie” in her nightmare. He seemed to be from the Medicine King Valley, a martial arts sect. He was also a rare famous doctor in the world. She wondered if he could treat her cousin’s leg disease.

Yu Youyao bit her lip lightly.

In her nightmare, she had become a medicine source because Divine Physician Xie could cure Yu Jianjia’s heart disease. Although it was just a dream, every time she thought of this person, she would feel a sense of trepidation and panic. Divine Physician Xie used human blood and human hearts to concoct medicine. He was evil. She didn’t know if he was good for her cousin or not.

She wondered if she should tell her cousin about this.

“Cousin, I…” Yu Youyao looked up and opened her mouth.

Seeing the little girl’s teary eyes, Zhou Linghuai asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?”

“I…” Yu Youyao’s breathing stopped for a moment. For some reason, the words that were about to come out of her mouth were stuck in her throat. For a moment, she couldn’t spit them out. She shook her head. “No, nothing. I’m just worried that Cousin’s leg will hurt.”

With that, the little girl’s voice choked as she lay on his lap, her small shoulders trembling.

Zhou Linghuai frowned slightly. The little girl clearly had something to say to him just now, but for some reason, she did not say it out loud. He raised his hand and gently rubbed the top of her head. “Do you have something to say to me?”

Yu Youyao was stunned for a moment. Then, she choked and said, “There are so many famous doctors in the world. There must be someone who can treat Cousin’s leg. Cousin, don’t be discouraged. I’ll write to Grandfather later and tell him about Cousin’s situation. I’ll ask him to help find him.”

That wasn’t what the young lady wanted to say! Zhou Linghuai pursed his lips slightly. “Okay!”

Uncle Sun wiped the silver needle and lowered his eyelids. “Can’t you wait until I’m done with the acupuncture?”

Yu Youyao quickly jumped away. “Uncle Sun, quickly insert the needles into Cousin’s leg.”

Zhou Linghuai’s gaze darkened. “After the acupuncture, I still have to wait for an hour before I can take it out. Cousin, you don’t have to wait here. Go back first. You’ve already learned Ode to the Zither that I taught you previously, but you still have to practice more to play it well.”

Yu Youyao pursed her lips. “Cousin, you’re deliberately sending me away. I won’t fall for it. I didn’t know that you had leg problems in the past. Now that I know, I definitely have to know more.” As she spoke, she waved her hand. “Besides, Cousin’s leg hurts badly. If I talk to you, perhaps you’ll feel better. Cousin, don’t persuade me. I won’t leave anyway.”

The little girl ignored her cousin and went up to Uncle Sun to ask him about his leg condition.

Thinking about how her cousin had hidden her leg illness from her previously, she had learned to be smarter this time. Thinking that her cousin’s body was a little weaker, she asked carefully about his health.

Uncle Sun chose what he could say. He avoided some serious matters, but overall, it was not bad.

Seeing that the little girl was not leaving, Zhou Linghuai felt helpless. He lowered his eyes to hide the obscureness in them. “My legs have been injured for three to four years. They’re a little different from others, but it’s not good for Cousin to see them.”

His family had undergone a huge change, and he was filled with bone-corroding hatred. The reason why he was able to survive was because he did not care about his legs at all.

However, at this moment, he did not want the little girl to see his increasingly ugly and unsightly legs.

When Yu Youyao heard this, she fell silent. She opened her mouth to say that it was fine, but her cousin did not want her to see them.

Feeling a pang of bitterness in her heart, the little girl pursed her lips slightly and said in a sad voice, “Then, I, I’ll return to the Jade Courtyard first and ask Nanny Xu if she has any way to ease Cousin’s leg problem.”

With that, the little girl ran out of the courtyard like the wind.

Zhou Linghuai’s heart skipped a beat. “Cousin.”

It was drizzling outside, so this little rain was not enough to wet the little girl. However, when it landed on her body, it was cold, and she would fall sick from the cold.

Hearing her cousin call her, Yu Youyao stood at the door and turned around. She had been crying for a long time, and her eyes were red and puffy, making her look adorable.

Zhou Linghuai sighed softly and came to the door. He bent down and picked up the oil-paper umbrella on the ground. The little girl had casually thrown it down when she came. “It’s still raining outside. Use the umbrella. Be careful not to get wet.”

After receiving the umbrella from her cousin, Yu Youyao’s sad face lit up again. “Thank you, Cousin. I’m not going to school in the afternoon. I’ll come over to visit you later.”

“Okay!” Zhou Linghuai watched as the little girl opened the paper umbrella and walked into the drizzle. The apricot flowers on the umbrella were slanted, and she looked beautiful.

Yu Youyao was a little sad that her cousin did not want her to see his injured legs, but she quickly let it go. As long as her cousin was fine, she would be happy.

After returning to the Jade Courtyard, Yu Youyao went to the kitchen first.

Mother Zhao, the cook in the kitchen, quickly stepped forward with a smile. “Young Miss, if there are dishes that you want to eat, I’ll definitely be able to make them.”

Mama Zhao could cook some of the eight major dishes. Her culinary skills were really good.

Yu Youyao smiled and said, “The spring rain is as cold as winter. Grandmother has a cold disease, and when it gets cold, she’ll feel uncomfortable. It’s the same for Cousin. I plan to make some nouris.h.i.+ng medicinal cuisine personally to nourish their bodies. Mother Zhao can guide me from the side so that I don’t spoil it. Although I’ve learned some medicinal cuisine from Nanny, I’ve never worked properly in the kitchen.”
