Chapter 40: Bustling General's Mansion
Liu Weimin was so scared that he ran out, but he was still talking: "You don't want your commission anymore?"

Xiao Yingchun sneered: "You stole the order, but don't forget, they just signed the contract, they haven't paid yet!"

"Why do you think they will definitely fulfill this contract? Have you read the contract carefully?"

"No one has paid yet, so your boss will give you a commission?"

"What the hell are you thinking!"

"roll!"

After driving Liu Weimin away, Xiao Yingchun angrily put away the broom, went back to sit behind the counter, and looked unconsciously towards the back door.

I don’t know if Fu Chenan’s injury has improved...when can he come back?
……

When he was sent back to the Marshal's Mansion, Fu Chenan woke up for a while and heard a woman with a rough voice shouting loudly, "What's wrong with An Ge'er?"

He felt relieved, closed his eyes, and fell into a coma.

The scabbed wound burst open, bleeding profusely, and it was not easy to heal again.

The imperial physician from the palace came, the emperor's imperial envoy Hu Jiaying came, and even the prince came.

After all the gods had examined him, they all agreed that Fu Chenan's injuries were serious and he needed to rest and recuperate.

His Majesty the Emperor took the opportunity to arrange for sixteen beautiful women with delicate bodies to come in, and gave them the euphemistic name of "serving General Fu."

Fu Chenan was handsome and strong, and the maids all rushed forward to serve him.

Who would have thought that as soon as he reached the gate of Fu Chen'an Courtyard, he ran into a young woman with a face full of flesh holding two butcher knives in both hands: "Who dares to enter my brother's room?"

The maids were not convinced: "We were assigned by His Majesty to serve General Fu. How could you not let us in?"

"I, Niu Shi Niang, said you are not allowed to enter, and I mean you are not allowed to enter! You evil women, you are looking at me and I don't know what you are thinking."

"Ange can't move yet, what do you want to do? Take advantage of him?"

"no way!"

"Want to serve him? See that small kitchen next to it? Go cook!"

"Ang'er loves delicious food and has a big appetite. You guys are serving him by bringing it to him. Only when Ang'er is full can he get better quickly!"

The maids looked at each other.

The one closest to the front was pushed by someone from behind and staggered towards Niu Shiniang.

"Ah!" The maid who was pushed out was frightened but proud at the same time, and she rushed towards Niu Shiniang.

Niu Shiniang refused to retreat or give in. She raised her strong left leg and kicked out in the chest.

“┗|｀O′|┛Ouch~~”

The maid was kicked in the chest and suffocated, and fell to the ground unconscious.

"what!"

"Killing people..."

The other maids were terrified and rushed towards the small kitchen.

"I will cook right away!"

"This slave knows how to pick vegetables!"

"I can make soup..."

The courtyard gate was quiet now, and Niu Shiniang was satisfied. She snorted, hooked a bamboo chair with her left foot, and sat down under the loquat tree outside the gate.

"I'll guard here today. Let's see who dares to go in!"

Inside the room, the old doctor Niu Gensheng was cleaning Fu Chenan's wound, and he kept saying, "This wound is weird. It looks so deep, but it's not festering..."

After cleaning the wound, Niu Gensheng took out a packet of medicine powder from his arms, poured a little on Fu Chenan's wound, and then took out a stitch-free patch and stuck it on Fu Chenan's wound.

The guards beside him saw this and nodded repeatedly: "When I was in the army, Doctor Niu dealt with it in this way."

Niu Gensheng treated all of Fu Chenan's wounds, stuffed two anti-inflammatory pills into Fu Chenan's mouth, and washed them down with water. Then he said, "Are these pills that Xiao Niu Niuzi asked you to bring back really so effective?"

"Of course! Old doctor, you don't know, this medicine has saved the lives of countless of our brothers..." These were all bought by General Fu from a mysterious shop.

Before returning, the marshal personally instructed them: Be sure to protect General Fu, and not leak a single word about the mysterious shop and the things inside to outsiders.

So they only dared to give the medicine that Doctor Niu asked them to bring back to Doctor Niu’s father: Old Doctor Niu Gensheng.

Niu Gensheng is an honest man, loyal to the marshal and his son, and trustworthy.

Sure enough, after General Fu returned home, various imperial doctors and the Crown Prince had a look at the first round. Niu Gensheng then asked Niu Shiniang to keep all outsiders out and he took care of the patient himself.

Anyway, the courtyard is surrounded by guards left by the prince. They call it protection, but it actually means surveillance.

Fu Chenan was still asleep, so the guards didn't dare to act rashly.

Just guard it, and they will guard it too.

If you don't move, I won't move either, so let's just wait and see.

Let’s wait until Fu Chenan wakes up.

When Fu Chenan woke up, it was dark.

A small oil lamp illuminated the dim room, and a gray-haired person snoring beside the bed.

Fu Chenan reached out and pushed.

Niu Gensheng suddenly got up and looked at Fu Chenan's face with a faint smile.

"Uncle Niu, I'm fine." Fu Chenan's voice was tired and hoarse.

"You kid! You scared your uncle Niu to death!" Niu Gensheng said as he lit the oil lamp and went out to ask Niu Shiniang to prepare food and bring it in.

Niu Shiniang wiped the oil off her mouth, picked up a plate and handed it to her father first: "Dad, this is what An Ge'er can't eat. I can't eat it anymore, you eat it."

She picked up another plate and walked into the house.

Niu Gensheng knew that this was made by those beautiful maids, so he didn't act pretentiously and just picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.

Niu Shiniang wanted to feed Fu Chenan, but Fu Chenan refused and wanted to eat by himself because he was afraid that Niu Shiniang would choke him to death.

Niu Shiniang had no choice but to carefully help Fu Chenan sit up and put the bowl and chopsticks into his hands: "Eat."

Fu Chenan was hungry, so he ate a lot before putting down his bowl and chopsticks: "Did you make this?"

It doesn’t taste like it!
Niu Shiniang rolled her eyes and said in a deliberately low and rough voice: "Those goblins outside did it..."

Niu Shiniang explained the origins of those goblins and her actions in stopping them.

Fu Chenan nodded in praise: "Well done! You are worthy of being my Niu sister!"

Niu Shiniang was instantly happy: "That's what I should do."

Seeing that he had finished eating, Niu Shiniang handed him another bowl of medicine: "This is a decoction to calm the nerves. My father said that getting more sleep will help you recover from your injury."

Fu Chenan thought of that smiling face and his heart warmed: Even if it is just to see her earlier, he should get better sooner.

Fu Chenan picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

Feeling sleepy, Fu Chenan covered himself with the quilt in a daze: "I'll sleep for a while..."

Niu Shiniang laid him flat, covered him with a quilt, walked out of the house, and sat down on the doorstep to take a nap.

Niu Gensheng was full and came over to kick his daughter: "Go to the next room and sleep."

Niu Shiniang said dazedly: "No need, it's not like I haven't slept under the eaves before..."

Besides, it’s hot now, and it’s cooler outside than inside.

Niu Gensheng stopped talking and went back into the room and lay down beside Fu Chenan's bed. After a while, two snoring sounds came one after another from inside and outside the room.

The two groups of people guarding outside the courtyard looked at each other in bewilderment: How could General Fu fall asleep with such thunderous snoring?!
Even a dead person should be woken up, right?

Fortunately, Fu Chenan drank some tranquilizing medicine...he couldn't hear anything.
