Chapter 11 Treatment
With the growth of human populations, wild animals like foxes are already extremely difficult to see, and if it weren't for its injury, An Xiao probably wouldn't have been so lucky.
Out of pity, An Xiao wanted to step forward to look at its wounds, but as soon as he took a step, the fox vigilantly raised the fur on its body.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, I just want to see the wound on your leg."
An Xiao let out a gentle voice and slowly approached it, for fear of scaring it and pulling the wounds on its body.
As if he understood An Xiao's words, the little fox's fur gradually relaxed, but those eyes still maintained a little inquiry.
An Xiao didn't care, carefully picked it up, picked up its front legs and took a look, and found that in addition to the trauma, the legs were also a little dislocated.
"I'll go find some herbs to bandage you, you wait for me here."
After speaking, An Xiao carefully put down the little fox, turned around and walked deeper into the woods.
Mr. An originally studied Chinese medicine, so when he was alive, he would go to the mountain to collect medicine basically every month.
When An Xiao was young, he often went up the mountain with him, but it was not convenient for him to go to high school in the county, so he didn't go much.
But An Xiao still remembers some of the simple medical theories she learned from Old Man An in those years, plus Chaoyang Mountain has not yet been developed, and after a while, she has found all the medicinal materials she needs.
Because of the limited conditions, An Xiao could only tear a piece of cloth from his trouser leg, wrap the herbs, mash them with the handle of a knife, and then carefully apply them to the little fox's wound, and finally wrap them in strips of cloth.
"Alright, so your injuries will heal soon."
After packing everything up and finding a hidden nest for the little guy, An Xiao was about to leave, but after only two steps, the little guy behind her suddenly shouted at her back.
As soon as An Xiao turned around, he saw the pitiful little thing, and his heart instantly softened, and he took it away with him.
Because there was suddenly more of this little guy around him, An Xiao naturally had less firewood to carry back.
When Zhang Xinlan saw the half-filled back basket, she couldn't bear to blame An Xiao, so she could only go again.
Taking advantage of Zhang Xinlan's departure, An Xiao set up a nest for the little fox in a hidden place, and covered it with sundries, so he went out with him.
From this day on, An Xiao would take out a part of his rations to the little fox every day, although they were all vegetarian, the little guy didn't pick, and ate all of them.
An Xiao still goes up the mountain every day, but the goal has become medicinal herbs, taking advantage of the good weather, and he can go to the town to sell some money after drying.
On this day, An Xiao went home from collecting medicine, and just arrived at the intersection when he heard a familiar voice.
"Second sister-in-law, look at what you have lived here, it's just a dilapidated house, it can't even cover the rain, how can you live in it."
Since the separation that day, the mother and daughter have disappeared, if it weren't for Han Dali's kid, it is estimated that they would not be able to find them in a short time.
If it weren't for the things in their hands, she wouldn't have been too lazy to be assigned by the stinky man in the family to come here to see this useless second sister-in-law.
Hearing Fang Yan's cynicism, Zhang Sulan just smiled, and then cleaned up a stool and brought a bowl of water to Fang Yan with an old enamel bowl.
Fang Yan took it with a look of disgust, if she didn't happen to be thirsty, she wouldn't have asked for it.
But before the water touched her lips, the bowl in Fang Yan's hand was snatched away, and when she looked up, she just saw An Xiao drinking the last sip of water, and wiped the water stains on the side of her mouth with satisfaction.
