1040 Detoxifying Mu Ruishu
“Little boy, have you been feeling very tired recently?” Lu Zijia asked.
Mu Ruishu pursed his lips and shook his head. “No, I’m in good health, Aunt. You don’t have to worry about me.”
Although he felt a little tired recently, his uncle and auntie were all very busy. They must be very tired, so he couldn’t cause trouble for them.
He wanted his uncle and aunt to like him, and he didn’t want them to hate him. He only had his uncle and aunt.
Seeing that he was obviously not telling the truth, Lu Zijia couldn’t help but pity him. She raised her hand and rubbed his little head. “Little Ruishu is so obedient. Uncle and Auntie like you very much. Therefore, if little Ruishu is not feeling well, you have to tell Uncle and Auntie, understand? Otherwise, Uncle and Auntie will be worried.”
Mu Ruishu seemed to be a little hesitant, but when he met Lu Zijia’s encouraging gaze, he finally couldn’t help but tell the truth.
“Auntie, you don’t have to worry. I… I just feel a little tired and want to sleep. I’ll be fine after I sleep enough,” Mu Ruishu said obediently.
Lu Zijia reached out and picked him up before walking upstairs. “Then I’ll carry you back to your room to sleep. You’ll be fine when you wake up.”
“Alright, Auntie is the best.”
Mu Ruishu wrapped his arms around Lu Zijia’s neck and rubbed his face against her affectionately.
“Go to sleep…” Lu Zijia patted his back gently and coaxed him to sleep.
“Wifey?”
Mu Tianyan happened to come down from upstairs. When he saw his wife carrying his nephew, he quickened his pace.
“He’s asleep.” Lu Zijia whispered and looked at the child in her arms. “We can’t delay the poison in Ruishu’s body anymore. I’ll treat him now. Help me prepare the herbs.”
“Alright.”
After memorizing the more than ten herbs that Lu Zijia mentioned, Mu Tianyan went downstairs to prepare them.
Afraid that Mu Ruishu would be too young to deal with the process, Lu Zijia cast a spell and made him fall into a deep sleep.
After preparing the medicinal bath, Lu Zijia took out a few silver needles and inserted them into Mu Ruishu’s body to seal his acupuncture points.
Looking at the young child soaking in the medicinal bath, Lu Zijia suddenly said, “Ah Yan, I want to treat Eldest Brother now. Ruishu needs his father more than his uncle and aunt.”
No matter how much they doted on Mu Ruishu, they could never replace his parents.
Moreover, Ah Yan and her were cultivators, and there would be a day when they would leave this place. It was not appropriate to bring Mu Ruishu along.
“Will it be too difficult?”
Although Mu Tianyan also wanted his eldest brother to wake up, he didn’t want his wife to hurt him in order to save someone.
Lu Zijia smiled and said, “I’m not forcing myself. It just might take a longer time.”
Originally, she wanted to treat Mu Tianheng when she reached the ninth level of Qi Refinement.
But from the looks of it, she couldn’t wait until then.
Mu Tianyan looked at her deeply. Seeing that she didn’t seem to be lying, he nodded slowly. “Alright.”
“Then prepare some more herbs for me. After the medicinal bath, I can treat Eldest Brother.”
Lu Zijia patted her man’s shoulder and ordered him with a smile.
Looking at his wife, who was smiling like a little fox, Mu Tianyan was amused. He leaned over and kissed the corner of her mouth, then said dotingly, “Yes, my wife.”
For the next few days, Lu Zijia took advantage of Mu Ruishu’s sleep to give him a medicinal bath before continuing to treat Mu Tianheng.
