"Ahem!" Geng Zhong coughed twice in embarrassment, then bowed his hands and said, "My subordinate only made a modest effort, which is really not worth mentioning."

As he spoke, his head dropped lower.

Cao Ran didn't know how to answer the question, so he waved his hand helplessly, "Guard Geng, you're very polite."

Xia Qianqian noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere and took the lead in speaking: "Sir General, Rong Minnu, let me treat your wounds first."

"Okay!" Cao Ran glanced at Ji Zimo beside him and discussed: "Or, you can watch from the side and let Mr. Liu take action."

The three of them entered the inner room, and Mr. Liu started to remove the dressing on Cao Ran's wound.

After a thorough examination, Xia Qianqian brought a pair of thread scissors that had been prepared in advance, handed it to him, and gave instructions on what to pay attention to.

Mr. Liu was very studious. According to her method, he cut the threads bit by bit, pulled them out, disinfected the wound again, and bandaged it.

In a quarter of an hour, the wound was easily cleaned up.

Cao Ran really admired the medical skills of the girl in front of him. When he saw her turning to leave, he called out: "Miss Xia, please stay."

When Mr. Liu heard the sound, he also stopped.

Cao Ran's eyes flashed and he said: "Mr. Liu, I have something to say to the girl alone."

"Sir, I will leave first."

Mr. Liu bent back and closed the door when he heard Cao Ran say: "I heard that that day, when I was seriously injured, it was a girl who took off my clothes and sutured my wounds. After all, there are differences between men and women..."

Mr. Liu didn't dare to listen to the rest of the words, closed the door, and hurried to the front hall.

Inside the room, Cao Ran took a deep breath and said, "The girl is not married yet. If she is disliked for this, it will be my fault."

"Sir, what are you talking about?"

Xia Qianqian was also frightened by this fierce and naive opening statement, "In the eyes of doctors, there is only the patient, and there is no difference between men and women."

"Girl like you, at such a young age, I never expected to be so open-minded."

Cao Ran looked at Xia Qianqian with a trace of sincere admiration, "Girl, please be considerate and hide the fact that you saved me purely to protect you."

"I understand what you mean, and this is what I hope too."

"That's good!"

Some things were discussed, and Cao Ran felt relieved, "I will hold a banquet another day to thank Miss Xia."

The eldest sister kept urging him to invite his savior to dinner, and she wanted to thank him in person.

If she knew that that girl was studying at her Zhuxian Academy, she would be so happy.

He planned not to reveal it yet, and then solemnly introduce the two of them to each other when the banquet was held.

In the hall outside the house, Liu Laosan turned back step by step and stood beside Ji Zimo, flustered and not knowing how to deal with himself.

Ji Zimo picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and whispered: "Mr. Liu, has your wound been taken care of?"

"Well, okay. If you rest for a few more days, it won't be a serious problem." Mr. Liu replied cautiously.

"Now that she's healed, why hasn't she come back yet?" The woman he mentioned naturally meant Xia Qianqian.

Mr. Liu looked embarrassed, "My lord, I suggest you keep Miss Xia here for questioning."

"Ask a question?" Ji Zimo put the teacup on the table.

"What will they discuss between them?"

Mr. Liu secretly glanced at Ji Zimo and kindly reminded: "Miss Xia is your savior. She treated his wounds. Although there are no men and women in the doctor's eyes, she is a girl after all. If you are your...

It is possible to be grateful and have some ideas..."

"Cough cough cough..." Geng Zhong pretended to cough hard and winked at Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu didn't pay attention, and Shen Naotao speculated: "Master Cao is thirty and four years old, and this girl is nine years old. In terms of age, it is not too bad."

Ji Zimo grimaced, stood up, and took two steps forward. When he came to the door, he stopped again and ordered: "Geng Zhong, go and see why she hasn't come yet."

"Yes!"

Inside the room, Cao Ran paced back and forth excitedly, muttering to himself: "Just wait, I will take care of things when I come back from taking down Fanshan."

Xia Qianqian stood up and said, "Sir, the lady Jing is waiting for the good news from you."

This Cao Ran, in everyone's impression, is a stern military commander.

He is such a rough guy, but I didn’t expect that he is also very careful.

The men he led often encountered the enemy's sword. The most common wounds were deep and difficult to heal, and the soldiers were often in great pain.

Cao Ran personally experienced the exquisite art of suturing and was amazed.

It's a pity that Xia Qianqian is a woman. Otherwise, he would definitely recruit her into the army as a doctor.

So he settled for the next best thing, saying that her medical skills should not be forgotten, and invited her to teach surgical suturing techniques to the doctors in the army?

It is the obligation and responsibility of every medical practitioner to promote medical skills.

Xia Qianqian obliged without hesitation.

Therefore, Cao Ran was very grateful to her and promised that her reward would never be less.

The two got very close to each other because of this incident.

Xia Qianqian even mentioned that special tools are necessary for surgery.

Making tools is very laborious. Next time she will bring the drawings and let Master Cao see if he can find a better blacksmith to cast them.

The two talked happily and decided on the matter.

Outside the door, Geng Zhong hesitated for a moment, then raised his voice and said, "Master Cao, my young master has something to discuss with you."

After a moment of silence in the room, Cao Ran opened the door and walked out. He glanced at Geng Zhong and said with a cheerful expression, "Okay, I'll go right away."

There is no reason why a general would be anxious to meet a merchant.

Perhaps he was so excited that he forgot to conceal Ji Zimo's identity in front of Xia Qianqian.

Cao Ran flicked his sleeves and hurried away.

Xia Qianqian followed him and stepped out.

Geng Zhong looked at her with a strange look. She glanced at him and asked in confusion: "What?"

"Nothing!"

"Wuji, what do you think I am doing!"

"When you come out of the door, I will naturally look at you."

Xia Qianqian was a little speechless, "It's okay, Master Cao. The rest of the matter has nothing to do with me. Let your young master know and I'll go out for a walk."

Today, she should go to Juwang Building to hand in the manuscript to Shopkeeper Qiao.

"Miss Xia..." Geng Zhong wanted to stop her, but Xia Qianqian walked quickly, waved her hand to him, and ran away.

In the front hall, Ji Zimo handed Cao Ran a painting and ordered: "Find someone to copy it."

Cao Ran took it, spread it out and asked, "What is this?"

"A hang glider is a thing that allows people to fly in the air."

Cao Ran was stunned for a while, and then suddenly realized: "Young master, you are really powerful. Fan Shan's dilemma can finally be solved."

"This is not my insight, but someone else's."

Cao Ran's eyes lit up, "Sir, who has such an extremely intelligent talent?"

Ji Zimo looked at his stimulant with a faint look in his eyes and said, "If she were a woman, would you marry her?"

Huh?

Cao Ran was immediately asked.

He is a rough man and his ideas are relatively simple.

For so many years, he has not had a woman by his side, which has touched the hearts of countless people.

Many people gave him women in order to curry favor with him.

The elders in his family who were more concerned about his life events stuffed women into his bed.

But he devoted himself to suppressing the bandits and captured Fanshan Feng Wei himself to avenge Xianer.
