After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

Chapter 68 The Smartest One is the Third Sister

Gongsun Wen did not notice that someone had sneaked in, and hurriedly mounted his horse and led the way.

When they returned to the Taifu Mansion, the imperial physician sent by Zheng Xian had been waiting in the Juyuan for a long time.

After we were settled in, the imperial doctors immediately started treating us.

We were all badly injured, mainly on our buttocks and backs. The flesh on our backs was torn to pieces, and the imperial physician couldn't help but gasp when he saw it.

My severed hand was broken and then reattached, the pain was indescribable.

What was even more painful was that the injured part was on the back, so the person could only sleep on his side or on his stomach. Yiping and the others were as light as a swallow, so sleeping on their stomachs was not a big problem. But I couldn't turn over when I lay down. It was easy to suffocate when sleeping on my stomach with such a fat body. Ankang had to stay with me all night, help me turn over, and apply medicine to me when the pain was severe.

Ankang took care of me for five whole days before I could barely turn over on my own.

That day, Ankang had just changed my medicine when Yiping walked in from outside, holding his waist.

When Ankang saw Yiping, he quickly bowed to her and walked out.

Yiping walked to my bed, looked at me half-dead, and his eyes immediately turned red.

I lay flat on my back, looking pale. My originally round face had become thinner!

I said weakly, "Little sister, why are you here?"

Yi Ping tried to hold back tears and said, "I'm sorry, second sister. We shouldn't have gone to the general's mansion that day, and you got hurt again. Although my eldest brother can walk now, he is too embarrassed to see you, and he hides in the house and cries secretly every day. Second sister, please don't blame my eldest brother, okay? He has no bad intentions, he just wants to seek justice for you and vent his anger."

I sighed and said, "We are a family, so let's not blame each other. Besides, if it weren't for my unlucky constitution, you wouldn't have been beaten up for no reason, so who am I to blame my eldest brother?"

Yiping looked at me with more and more guilt.

At this time, I saw Zhao Jinping standing outside the door, secretly looking into the house like a thief.

He should have come with Yiping, but he was afraid that I would blame him, so he hid outside the door and didn't dare to come in.

I ignored him and turned to ask Yi Ping, "How is grandma now? She was beaten at such an old age, I'm afraid her body can't bear it."

Yi Ping nodded and said, "Grandmother is still unable to walk. The imperial physician said that her shoulder bone was fractured and she will have to stay in bed for a long time before she can recover."

I felt bad after hearing that and said, "Gui Lanting really wanted to kill us and get rid of us all at once. Don't be so stupid in the future. Don't believe anything this vicious woman says."

"There will be a next time? We almost all died in her hands. I've had nightmares these past few days!" Yi Ping looked terrified and kept patting his chest, saying, "My brother said he's timid, but who isn't afraid of death?"

As he spoke, Yiping began to cry and kept wiping his tears with his sleeves.

I looked outside the door and said, "Come in, how long do you want to hide?"

Zhao Jinping shrank back in fear, and after a while he stuck his head out again. Then he slowly, slowly moved in front of me like an ant crawling.

I looked at Zhao Jinping, who was bent over like Yi Ping and so thin that he looked like he would be blown away by the wind. I sighed and said, "I'm not a cannibal. Why are you hiding?"

Zhao Jinping glanced at me secretly, and seeing that I didn't look angry, he scratched his head and said, "Second sister, are you really not angry with me?"

I said, "You're already so injured, why should I be angry with you?"

Zhao Jinping smiled sheepishly and said, "In fact, I have been timid since I was a child, and I am afraid of death. I spoke in the general's mansion because I was extremely scared. Don't laugh at me."

I smiled and said, "Who isn't afraid of death? I am afraid too, so how could I laugh at you? It's just that I fainted at the time and couldn't shout, otherwise I might have shouted louder than you."

"Really?" Zhao Jinping looked at me with shining eyes as if he had found a soulmate. "I was just saying, who doesn't fear death? Third sister laughed at me, but she was actually scared and cried that day."

Yiping was about to retort, but when he saw me shaking my head, he just held it back and turned his head away without saying anything.

I said to Zhao Jinping, "Every failure makes you wiser. Don't be so reckless in the future. Third sister is the smartest one in our family. Ask her for her opinion more often in the future. Don't do anything that she disagrees with."

I put such a big hat on Yiping's head, and Yiping couldn't hold it. She blushed and said, "I'm not as smart as my second sister, so don't laugh at me."

Zhao Jinping agreed for once, nodding his head and saying, "You're right. My third sister did try to stop me from going, but I was blinded by greed and insisted on taking my grandmother with me. Alas, I almost lost my life. It was really dangerous."

"I'm glad everyone is okay. Just be more careful next time." I took a breath, looking worse.

Sleeping on my side would press on my broken arm, and lying flat would press on the stick injury on my back. I hardly slept these past few days because it was so painful.

Yi Ping saw that I looked unwell, and was frightened and asked quickly: "Second sister, are you in pain? Do you want to see a doctor?"

I gasped and said, "No, help me turn over, be careful not to press my arms."

Yiping and Jinping were still injured and had no strength at all. They tried to move me for a long time but couldn't move me at all. They were so tired that they kept crying "ouch, ouch", probably because their wounds were torn.

At this time, Ankang ran in quickly from the door with a bowl of porridge, shouting as he ran: "Don't move, wait for me to come."

Yiping and Jinping quickly moved out of the way.

Ankang stuffed the bowl into Yiping's hand, then carefully put one hand on my shoulder and the other on my waist, carefully turned me over, and then said to Jinping: "Young Master, please help me get a soft pillow to cushion Second Young Master's back."

Jinping quickly took a soft pillow from the bedside and placed it behind me.

Ankang checked that the soft pillow was placed in the correct position before he gently let go.

I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It hurts so much. Fortunately, I have Ankang, otherwise I would not be able to live like this."

Jinping looked at me sadly and said, "Big brother is useless. He can't help you at all and he causes you trouble all the time."

I knew he was being sensitive again.

This boy is only sixteen years old, but he has experienced so much that he has become less and less confident and more and more sensitive.

I opened my mouth and took a bite of the porridge Yiping fed me, and said, "When your injury is healed, go to school."

This is a positive statement from me, and he has no right to object.

Zhao Jinping was stunned for a moment, looked at me in disbelief, and said, "Why should I go to school at my age?"

I rolled my eyes at him and said, "How old are you? Some people have been taking the imperial examination for more than ten years and still haven't passed. Don't they still have to go to school with those kids?"
