Chapter 82: Do It Yourself
"Yes, Master." Mr. Wang responded respectfully, holding the medicine bowl, and walked out of the room quickly.
As soon as he left the room, Mr. Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
When he was just giving the medicine, he recognized the living person brought back by his master as Dr. Gu from Qingcheng County.
I couldn't help but murmur in my heart, it seems that this Dr. Gu is extraordinary and can make his master treat him differently.
Mr. Wang was thinking wildly as he found the maid: "Prepare a set of clean clothes and send them to the master's room. Don't look at anything too much. Just do whatever the master asks you to do."
"Yes, I understand." The maid responded respectfully and immediately started preparing according to Master Wang's instructions.
The maid quickly prepared clean clothes and knocked on the door softly: "Master, this slave has brought clean clothes."
When Mu Wuchen heard the knock on the door, he withdrew his gaze from Gu Xiaoyou and said coldly: "Come in and change her clothes."
"Yes." The maid lowered her head and stepped forward, placing the clean clothes beside the bed and reaching out to untie Gu Xiaoyou's belt.
Mu Wuchen glanced at it unintentionally and noticed that the maid's hand was about to touch the purse on Gu Xiaoyou's waist. He immediately remembered what was in the purse and said in a deep voice, "Don't move."
The maid immediately retracted her hand, moved her position, and stood aside respectfully.
Mu Wuchen stretched out his slender fingers, gently took off the purse from Gu Xiaoyou's waist, and tied it around his waist.
"Okay, keep going, be gentle."
"Yes." The maid responded respectfully and carefully changed Gu Xiaoyou's clothes.
Mu Wuchen had his back to them the whole time, his knuckled hands playing with the purse around his waist.
Even though he knew the treasure was in his purse, Mu Wuchen couldn't bring himself to play with it at all. Hearing the rustling sound of changing clothes, his heart was full of worries for Gu Xiaoyou.
Just when Mu Wuchen's thoughts were drifting away, the maid changed Gu Xiaoyou's clothes, held the clothes in her hands, and said respectfully: "Master, the clothes have been changed."
"Yeah." Mu Wuchen said calmly, "Go down."
"Yes, please leave." The maid bowed her head and left the room quickly without making a sound.
Mu Wuchen sat back on the bed, looking at Gu Xiaoyou's face that was still stained with dust, his eyes filled with deep worry.
Master Wang's voice interrupted Mu Wuchen's deep thoughts: "Master, the hot water is here."
"Leave it alone, you can go out." Mu Wuchen directly ordered without even looking at Mr. Wang.
Mr. Wang placed the hot water basin on the stand and said hesitantly: "Master, I will ask the maid to wipe it for Divine Doctor Gu."
"No need." Mu Wuchen said coldly.
"master……"
Lord Wang wanted to persuade him again, but Mu Wuchen turned around and glared at him impatiently. Lord Wang's back was so cold when Mu Wuchen saw him that he didn't dare to say anything more and went out with his head lowered.
It wasn't until Mr. Wang closed the door that Mu Wuchen got up from the bed, walked to the hot water basin, and tested the water temperature. When the water cooled down a little, he soaked the towel and got a warm hand towel out.
.
Mu Wuchen walked back to the edge of the bed, leaned over Gu Xiaoyou, and wiped her little face with a handkerchief.
The towel wiped Gu Xiaoyou's eyebrows, gradually revealing her beautiful face. Mu Wuchen's eyes looked at her softly, with a tenderness that he had never noticed.
After Mu Wuchen wiped Gu Xiaoyou's face, he took off the hair on her face, looked at her carefully for a few times, then turned around and soaked the hand towel again, grabbed Gu Xiaoyou's catkins, and wiped it for her.
When the towel touched the wound on Gu Xiaoyou's hand caused by crawling on the ground, Gu Xiaoyou groaned unconsciously.
Mu Wuchen shook his hands and immediately looked at Gu Xiaoyou, calling with a hint of expectation: "Gu Xiaoyou, Xiaoyou, are you awake?"
Unfortunately, Gu Xiaoyou just snorted and fell asleep again. Mu Wuchen waited for a while and sighed in disappointment.
He continued to wipe Gu Xiaoyou's hands with a gentler movement. After wiping her catkins, Mu Wuchen took out the ointment from the medicine box in the room and carefully applied it on Gu Xiaoyou.
While I was applying the ointment, suddenly the door of the room made several soft noises.
"Who?" Mu Wuchen frowned and looked at the door.
"It's a subordinate, please report..." A deep male voice sounded outside the door.
Mu Wuchen recognized the voice and it was his follower Meng Yu. Before Meng Yu could finish speaking, he interrupted him directly: "Waiting at the door."
"Yes, Master." Meng Yu responded respectfully and waited quietly at the door.
Mu Wuchen looked away and continued to apply medicine to Gu Xiaoyou's catkins.
Maybe the cool ointment had an effect, Gu Xiaoyou's slightly frowned brow slowly relaxed, and he looked a little more relaxed.
Mu Wuchen curled his lips and smiled, put Gu Xiaoyou's hand into the quilt, tucked the quilt for her, and said softly: "Sleep well."
After looking at Gu Xiaoyou a few more times, Mu Wuchen left the room, gently opened the door, glanced at Meng Yu, and said calmly: "Follow me to the study."
After saying that, Mu Wuchen strode towards the study, and Meng Yu immediately followed.
A master and a servant soon came to the study, and Mu Wuchen asked seriously: "How is the situation going?"
"Reporting to the master, the fire has been put out. The main room has been burned down, and other rooms have not been affected."
Mu Wuchen frowned, his heart filled with anger and deep fear.
He couldn't imagine that if he was a step too late, he would never see Gu Xiaoyou again.
Mu Wuchen said coldly: "Has the person who set the fire been found?"
"My subordinates are still investigating and have found a clue."
"Continue the investigation and find the person who set the fire as soon as possible." Mu Wuchen ordered in a deep voice, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"I obey your orders." Meng Yu responded respectfully, and then said with some hesitation: "Master, the people next door to Divine Doctor Gu have been asking about a woman and child. I only said that Divine Doctor Gu was saved.
Didn’t say much.”
After hearing the description, Mu Wuchen immediately knew that Meng Yu was talking about Zhou and Liang'er.
"Tell them that Gu Xiaoyou is here so they don't have to worry."
"Yes, I will take care of it now." Meng Yu accepted the order, turned around and left after seeing the ceremony.
After Mu Wuchen finished handling this matter, he left the study and returned to his room.
He kept his brows furrowed, looking at Gu Xiaoyou's sleepy face, a flash of fear flashed in his heart.
"Wake up quickly..."
Mu Wuchen murmured, but unfortunately Gu Xiaoyou still didn't respond.
He could only sit by Gu Xiaoyou's bed and watch over her, silently watching over her all night.
The sky was slightly white, the candles in the room had burned out, and thin green smoke was rising.
The room did not remain dark for long before the sun rose from the east and illuminated the room through the window.
