Chapter 488 - 489 It’s My Responsibility to Take Care of Xuanxuan
If you were to ask what medical skill Song Xiaodong was most proficient in, it would be trauma and bone setting. On the battlefield, those are the most common injuries, and he had plenty of chances to practice them.
Although Miao Xuanxuan’s leg was fractured, it wasn’t particularly severe, and there wasn’t much displacement. With a slight adjustment, Song Xiaodong had already properly aligned the bones.
For an average person, this would have been sufficient for Song Xiaodong.
But this was Miao Xuanxuan, and Song Xiaodong administered several needles, pouring True Qi continuously into her to better facilitate the healing of her bones. After half an hour, Song Xiaodong finally removed the needles, completely exhausted—as if he had been giving someone a life-saving treatment.
Song Xiaoru, with a concerned expression, wiped the sweat off Song Xiaodong, while Qingqing asked Miao Xuanxuan, "How do you feel now?"
"It doesn’t hurt anymore, it feels as if nothing happened," Miao Xuanxuan said as she attempted to move her leg.
Song Xiaodong was startled and hurriedly pressed down on her knee, saying, "Don’t move around, your leg isn’t fully healed. I’ve just cut off the pain signals from your leg’s nerves. If you move recklessly, all my work would have been for nothing."
"Ah... it’s not healed? Aren’t you the Divine Doctor? How come you haven’t healed me completely?" Miao Xuanxuan pouted.
Miao Qingqing’s face darkened as she said, "It takes a hundred days to recover from skeletal and muscular injuries. Even if your brother-in-law’s medical skill is exceptional, such a broken bone can’t heal instantly. Lie down and don’t move."
"I know, I was just saying. Look at you, getting defensive about your husband," Miao Xuanxuan pouted again.
Miao Qingqing snorted, "Well, he’s your brother-in-law too, isn’t he? Really, after he’s gone through so much trouble to treat your leg, you should at least be grateful instead of complaining."
"Hehe, how could I not be satisfied? Since he’s my brother-in-law, that’s why I dare to speak my mind," Miao Xuanxuan stuck out her tongue and then added with a pained expression, "So, when will my leg be fully healed?"
