Chapter 413: She Believes

But for her, she is not very scared, after all, she has experienced so many things, and she can still guarantee basic calm.

On the bright side, at least, if someone else took so much effort to kidnap her, they wouldn't have taken her life at will. If she really wants to negotiate with the Long family, even if it is for the majesty of the Long family, the face of the Long family will not violate her at will.

In other words, she is safe now.

After staying in the bath for a while, Zhang Xiaomo came up with a bath towel, dried his body carefully, then put on a bathrobe and opened the door: "Prepare clothes for me." "She doesn't look like a kidnapped hostage at all, but more like the owner of this place.

The maids complied, and then brought her clothes to change into. As for the clothes inside, she didn't even look at it again. Because Long Chengxuan said that once the locator on the clothes is activated, the clothes can be discarded. It's for her protection, but also for secrecy.

After changing into new clothes, she asked, "What time is it?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, it's ten o'clock in the morning, and your breakfast has been prepared for you."

"Take me there."

When I came to the dining room, it was still quiet, except for the two maids who followed me, as if there was no one else in the room. After she sat down, a middle-aged white man in a butler's uniform walked in with a dining cart: "Good morning, madam." ”

If he wasn't sure that he had been kidnapped, Zhang Xiaomo would have thought that he was staying in an ancient castle in Europe. She nodded slightly: "Name." ”

"My name is Alfred Bennett. We're here to help, ma'am. ”

Glancing at the other party, she nodded slightly and stopped talking. The other party also moved quickly and put on a delicate breakfast.

After breakfast, she stood up: "Where is this?" But after seeing the embarrassed expression on the other party's face, she waved her hand: "Forget it, you don't need to say it, just tell me where I can go." ”

Hearing her say this, Bennett breathed a sigh of relief: "Madam, the whole manor, you can move freely. ”

In other words, she can only stay in this manor, and she can't leave. For this ending, she is actually quite satisfied: "I know." Step aside! ”

"Yes, ma'am!"

Perhaps it was because he had been using the anesthetic for too long, and his body had formed a slight habit, and now Zhang Xiaomo yawned and walked directly to the bedroom: "I'll sleep and call me at noon." ”

"Yes, ma'am!"

The maid carefully waited for her to change into her pajamas, covered her with a quilt, lowered the curtains, and then gently closed the door and exited. And she quickly fell into a deep sleep.

In the living room, Bennett asked the two maids, "Madame asleep?" ”

"Yes, Madame is very tired and has just fallen asleep after lying down for a while." The maid replied respectfully.

Hearing the maid say this, Bennett nodded: "Wait well, don't make any mistakes." ”

"Yes!"

After these orders, Bennett left.

In this way, Zhang Xiaomo stayed quietly in the manor, ate and slept, or took a walk in the manor, picked some flowers and came back to arrange flowers, or sat quietly by the window and read a book, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her. She doesn't care about being kidnapped or where she is. Elegant and demure, like a noble lady recuperating in some manor.

But it's not wrong to say this, Zhang Xiaomo's family is already rich, although her father is a rich generation, but her mother Li Zhiyao was cultivated by a big family, although she ran away from home, her children's education has not been left behind.

And Zhang Xiaomo's personality is out-of-the-box, and he usually doesn't pretend like this, but he also knows that at this time, maintaining these styles is the best guarantee for himself. She had been here for more than a week, and she had not seen any principals, but had stayed quietly in the manor, except for three or four flowermen and rough maids, only Bennett, the butler, and two maids.

She didn't understand this situation, but she wouldn't take the initiative to ask. Anyway, the other party can't keep holding her like this, and he will always come out to meet her. And now, the only thing she has to do is to be patient with the person behind her.

She has never lacked patience, and she has never been afraid of loneliness, otherwise she would not have such a high level of medical skills at such a young age. So she just needs to wait with peace of mind now, the only thing that worries her is that she doesn't know how Long Chengxuan is doing now.

She was comfortable in being held here for more than a week, but she was confident that her husband would not be as comfortable as she was. Is the other party threatening her husband with her? Will it be dangerous? Will he get hurt? Will it violate some principles?

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly heard an exclamation, turned her head to look, and saw Bennett fall to the ground, and the hot tea in his hand was poured on her.

Seeing him like this, Zhang Xiaomo frowned, but still stood up and walked over. By this time, the maid had already lifted Bennett up.

Only then did he find that the boiling water had scalded a blister on his hand. And his shirt was still clinging to his skin. Without much thought, she said directly: "Follow me." ”

The three of them were stunned for a moment, not understanding what she was going to do. Seeing that the three of them were stunned, she got angry: "What are you doing in a daze?" Want to make his gestures more severe? ”

Only then did Bennett remember that Zhang Xiaomo was a doctor: "Thank you, madam, for your hard work." ”

Helping him to the bathroom, Zhang Xiaomo gently washed his scalded hands with warm water, and said to a maid: "Go and get the medicine box." ”

"Yes, ma'am!"

The medical kit was quickly delivered, and she used scissors to cut the sleeves of her shirt and carefully removed the fabric from her skin with tweezers.

Seeing the burned skin, she frowned slightly: "The injury is a bit serious, if you don't have the corresponding medicine here, go to the hospital." Such an injury ......"

After thinking about it suddenly, she remembered one thing: "Is there aloe vera?" ”

"Yes, ma'am!"

"Try choosing a large aloe vera, peeling off the outer skin, and thinning the flesh inside into a thin skin and applying it to the wound. Then my advice was to go to the hospital. "The truth is that in the land of Upper Africa, any small wound must be very careful, and if you are not careful, it is likely to become a fatal cause.

Obviously, Bennett also understood this, and he nodded lightly: "Thank you, madam, I lost my company first." ”

"Go ahead, if...... If you can't leave, if you need anything, feel free to call me. It's not that she wants to slap the other party, she's just doing it purely because she's a doctor, and if it is something else, she won't care.

Obviously, her thoughts and attitudes were also felt by everyone, and the gaze that looked at her became much softer: "Madam, you can rest first, and we will deal with it here." ”

"Good!"

Since someone is dealing with it, she doesn't bother to care. But when she walked to the door, she suddenly stopped: "Your hand, it's best not to do things these days." ”

"But Madame's meal ......"

"Feel free to get some, I don't mind." In fact, she can do it herself, but since others want to treat her as a noble lady, she naturally will not rush to do things with others. After all, that's someone else's business, and it's not good for her to grab it.

In this way, when it was about to go to bed at night, a maid hurried over: "Madame......

Zhang Xiaomo, who had changed into pajamas and was lying on the bed reading a book, glanced at her: "What's wrong?" ”

"Mr. Bennett, he ...... It seems to have a fever. We fed him fever reducers, but it didn't seem to work. ”

The maid who said these words was a little anxious, and her face was panicked. Seeing her like this, Zhang Xiaomo lifted the quilt and got out of bed: "Take me to have a look." As she spoke, she put on her cloak and followed the maid out.

When he came to Bennett's house, Zhang Xiaomo was surprised to find that his room was also very spacious, although most of the things in the house were necessary for the housekeeper, but he still felt a little strange.

But now is not the time to look at that. She walked over to the bed and tested Bennett's temperature, and found that it was frighteningly hot: "Fill the tub with water and carry him in." Be careful not to touch the wound with water. ”

The current appearance should be a high fever caused by an infected wound. The most important thing is to bring his temperature down: "What did you do for him before?" ”

"We tried ice and gave him fever-reducing injections, but it didn't take long for him to burn again."

Zhang Xiaomo instructed them to put Bennett in the bathtub and began to put warm water. When the water poured on Bennett, he couldn't help but whisper, "It's cold." ”

"You're cold because you have a fever."

She replied calmly, and then said to one of the maids, "You watch him here, don't let the water get cold." You, take me to the kitchen. "She saw Bennett's wound just now, and she didn't apply aloe vera. It seems that they are not very receptive to this ancient treatment.

When he came to the kitchen, Zhang Xiaomo began to quickly adjust the salt and sugar water, mixed a large pot and put it on a cart, and then mixed a large basin of salt water: "There is sterilized cotton, right?" ”

"Yes."

After seeing the huge aloe vera outside the window, she unceremoniously broke three more pieces, then took a cooking knife and put it in the cart, and then let the maid push it back to Bennett's room.

At this time, Bennett was already a little delirious, and Zhang Xiaomo couldn't care so much, so he directly removed all the bandages on his arms, and sure enough, pale yellow pus had begun to ooze out of it: "On such a hot day, who asked you to wrap his wounds?" ”

Don't these people have any medical knowledge? Complaining in her heart, the movements in her hands still did not stop, first washing off the pus on the wound with light salt water, and then peeling off the aloe vera, cutting the slippery meat inside into thin slices and applying it to the wound: "Don't think this is not clean, many medicines are derived from plants at the beginning." Even many of the medicines we use today are purified from plants. ”

"Huh?"

"If you had listened to me in the first place, he probably wouldn't have had a fever." After applying the aloe vera, she stood up: "Feed him salt and sugar water to drink, you can replenish your strength and electrolytes, otherwise the dehydration caused by fever and sweating alone will be enough for him." ”

After thinking about it, she had someone take a large bag of ice from the refrigerator, wrap it in a towel, and put it on Bennett's forehead. After a night of tossing and turning, Bennett's body temperature finally returned to normal when the eastern horizon was hazy. It's just that after this night of tossing, he has no strength at all, and the whole person falls asleep.

At this time, Zhang Xiaomo was also tired: "You, take him out, change him into clean clothes, and then put him on the bed and let him lie down, the aloe vera in his hands, every hour, change it to a new one, and remember to eat anti-inflammatory drugs." If anything happens, come and call me. ”

After tossing like this for a night, she was so tired that she yawned and went straight back to her room to sleep.

Although Bennett is sick now and the two maids are taking care of him, Zhang Xiaomo is not stupid enough to think that he can sneak away now.

First, she didn't know where she was now, and even if she escaped from the manor, she wouldn't know where to flee.

Second, she has no means of transportation to escape, and even if she succeeds in escaping, she will be caught quickly, and then she will be even more embarrassed.

As for the third, she didn't believe that the manor was as defenseless as it seemed, and since others said that she could only move freely in the manor, it meant that as long as she took a step, it was likely that someone would unceremoniously invite her back.

In order to avoid unnecessary injuries, it is better for her to stay here and wait for rescue. Because she believed that after all this time, her man must be on his way to save her.
