When the villagers outside heard the news, they rushed to the Mu Residence. Many of them came in to take a look at the situation. Seeing that the Mu family was crying miserably, they hurriedly helped them. “Let’s carry All Ling onto the brick bed first. If we leave her on the ground, she might catch a cold.”

Someone also said, “What a sin. Hurry up and fetch her a doctor.”

“And quickly send someone to the academy to fetch Bowen back. Ah Ling is the pillar of their family. Now that she’s collapsed, he’ll have to take her place.” Another person asked Great-aunt, “Who was so ruthless to do this? She’s still a child. Was it for the corn?”

“Exactly. That’s the seeds that Little General gave us. Our Ah Ling is good friends with him. Since he asked the people of Four Tray Village to teach us how to plant it, we did as we were told. However, the villagers also saw when the corn was being collected. It was Little General who directly brought the troops to collect it. Our All Ling doesn’t even know how many catties was collected. Why did those people come to our Ah Ling for this? How am I supposed to answer to my eldest nephew now that she’s become like this?” Great-aunt lay by the brick bed and cried bitterly.

Old Man Sun asked in surprise, “Is it the golden corn that Little General asked us to plant in the high-grade land?”

“Yes it is. It’s said to be something that even the old emperor said was good, but they’ve been planting it for several lifetimes without producing a decent yield. Why are the thieves targeting us after we merely planted it once? If the thief wants to steal it, he can go to the camp to steal it himself. What’s the use of kidnapping my Ah Ling? Isn’t this taking my life?”

Xiuhong pulled her sister, Xiulan, and held onto Mu Yangling’s arm as she cried. Unable to squeeze out tears, she pulled Mu Yangling’s arm to cover her eyes and wailed.

When Bowen stumbled back, he saw the entire family crying around his sister while she laid on the bed. It was unknown if she was dead or alive.

Bowen was so frightened that his face turned pale. Trembling, he ran to the brick bed and grabbed his sister’s arm. He asked in a sharp voice, “What’s wrong with Sister? What’s wrong with Sister?”

Shu Wanniang was afraid of scaring her son, but there were too many people in the room, so she didn’t dare to explain for a moment. Afraid that others would notice something amiss, she could only hug him and pat his back to comfort him. “Your sister is incredible. The heavens will definitely bless her. Good child, don’t be anxious.”

“That’s right, that’s right. All Ling is very lucky. She will definitely be able to avert danger,” many people comforted him.

Great-aunt didn’t think it was a good idea for so many people to surround the house. What if All Ling couldn’t pretend any longer and someone saw through her?

Coincidentally, the villagers had invited the physician of the Benevolence Hall over.

When he heard that he was coming to the Mu Residence, Pang Kongqing initially didn’t want to come. However, the person who went to invite the doctor begged bitterly and said that Mu Yangling could only breathe in and not out. As a doctor, he couldn’t bear to leave her to die, so he brought the first aid kit over. However, he even brought a servant with him this time because he was afraid that he would encounter the same situation again.

Seeing that Mu Yangling’s face was pale and there was blood at the corner of her mouth, Pang Kongqing hurriedly went forward to take her pulse. After a while, he frowned slightly and everyone looked at him nervously.

The villagers were afraid that something would happen to Mu Yangling, while the Mu family was afraid that the matter would be exposed. Only Mu Yangling lay down peacefully.

Pang Kongqing retracted his hand and said, “She suffered internal injuries. It looks serious, but it’s actually not a big deal. She’ll be fine after taking the medicine and resting for two to three days.”

Great-aunt and Shu Wanniang heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that Little General had instructed someone to collude with Physician Pang. The villagers also heaved a sigh of relief knowing that at least she wouldn’t die.

Only Mu Yangling knew that this was her true situation.

Pang Kongqing prescribed a prescription and said, “Get someone to go back with me to collect the medicine now.” After a pause, he continued, “Miss Mu, you’d better be careful. Although it’s a small injury this time, it might not be the case next time. Internal injuries have always been the most difficult to treat. Besides, Miss Mu is healthy and can withstand such internal injuries. But if this force is used on an ordinary person, they won’t be able to get out of bed without lying down for three to five months. In the future, I’m afraid your internal organs will be weaker than others. Miss Mu, even if you don’t think for yourself, you should think for your family.”

Pang Kongqing knew that Mu Yangling was feigning unconsciousness, so he said this for her to hear. He thought that Mu Yangling was injured again because of her bandit relative.

He saw that other than her father and her, everyone else in the Mu family was weaker than ordinary people. It was better for them to stay away from the bandits under such circumstances.

Mu Yangling understood what he meant. Feeling a tad amused, she inwardly thanked him for his good intentions. Then, she opened her eyes slightly and pretended to have just woken up.

Initially, Bowen was really holding back his tears. After all, his sister had collapsed. As a man, he naturally had to support this family. Therefore, when his mother’s tears fell into his neck, he really wanted to cry as well, but he had been holding it in. However, when he saw that his sister had woken up and heard from the doctor that her sister was fine, he could no longer hold back the fear in his heart. He burst into tears and pounced forward to hug Mu Yangling tightly.

Being hugged by her brother, Mu Yangling instantly forgot what she wanted to say to Physician Pang. She only cared about patting her brother’s shoulder and comforting him. “It’s fine, it’s fine. 1 will be fine after taking the medicine.”

Bowen hugged his sister and cried until he burped. With tears in his eyes, he said, “I—I’ll avenge you. Who bullied you?”

Mu Yangling stroked his head and said, “There’s no need to wait for you to avenge me. 1 stabbed him and he’s in a worse state than me now.”

The villagers who had yet to retreat felt a chill on their stomachs and their bodies trembled slightly.

Great-aunt hurriedly wiped her tears and gratefully sent everyone out.

Seeing that there was nothing else they could do here, everyone bade farewell.

Physician Pang looked at Mu Bowen’s expression for a while. Seeing that he was still burping after crying for a long time, he opened the first aid kit and took out two silver needles to prick him twice. Mu Bowen stopped burping and stared at Pang Kongqing in a daze.

Seeing that his round eyes were still filled with tears, Pang Kongqing’s heart softened even more. He reached out and patted the head of the innocent six-year-old. “Don’t worry. Your sister will be fine after taking the medicine and sleeping. She’s in better health than ordinary people.”

Mu Bowen sniffed and thanked him obediently. “Thank you, Physician Pang.”

In a good mood, Pang Kongqing smiled and said, “There’s no need to thank me. 1 think you have to take a set of medicine too. Were you frightened just now? 1’11 give you a prescription to calm your nerves. You’ll be fine after a peaceful night of rest. Otherwise, I’m afraid he’ll have a fever at night.” He turned his head and said the last sentence to Shu Wanniang.

Shu Wanniang said seriously, “Thankyou, Physician Pang.”

“You’re welcome.” Other than treating Mu Yangling not as nicely, Pang Kongqing was still very amiable to the other members of the Mu family. After prescribing a prescription for Mu Bowen and giving some instructions, he returned with the servant.

Xiuhong took some silver and followed him to the Benevolence Hall to get the medicine. Since she had to do her best to put on a show, she naturally had to get medicine for Mu Yangling..
