The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

Chapter 17 Check the Villain's Legs

Everyone had dinner in their own rooms. Except for the steamed corn bread which was free, all other food had to be purchased from Zheng Chengyuan (the leader of the officials). The post station was responsible for the cooking, which allowed Zheng Chengyuan to make another fortune.

Except for the concubine of the second branch of the Mu family, each family bought some hot dishes as a reward after walking for two days.

The dinner in the Mu family's main house was naturally sumptuous. Although the dishes at the wedding banquet were delicious, Fu Yunxi felt that she couldn't eat too greasy food every day, especially when her sister-in-law Lin shyly dragged her away and said she wanted to eat sour food. As a qualified sister-in-law, Fu Yunxi of course had to meet her requirements.

In the evening, she made stir-fried pork slices with lettuce, abalone stewed chicken soup, pickled fish, tomato and egg, broccoli in preserved egg soup, and a bag of sour and sweet plums, which were just right for pregnant women. She didn't believe that these dishes couldn't conquer Lin's stomach!

"Wow! Xier, you are so awesome!" Fu Yunxi's eyes lit up instantly when she saw Lin.

After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms. The innkeeper was busy because every room was calling for hot water. Everyone hadn't taken a bath for two days, so they naturally had to cherish this opportunity.

Fu Yunxi followed Mu Yibai into the room, "I want to see your legs."

Mu Yibai didn't expect her to be so direct. He was stunned for a moment, his dark eyes staring at her, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.

"I'm serious. Let me see your legs. You've been drinking the spiritual spring water in the space these past two days. You should feel that it can relieve your fatigue and soothe your spirit! But this water has more effects than that. I need to see your legs before I can prescribe the right medicine."

"No, my leg can't be cured."

Mu Yibai knew that he had consulted so many doctors in his previous life, but the results were always the same. There was no need to waste his energy on this. He pressed his slender fingers on the operating panel, drove the wheelchair into the room, and stopped talking.

"Whether he can be cured is not up to you, but to me as a doctor. You shouldn't be afraid to seek medical treatment." Fu Yunxi remembered that in the book he did not stand up until the end, but that did not mean that she could not cure him.

The medical system in her space is the most advanced in modern times and is fully automated. Even if the patient is only half alive, there is a chance of saving him.

"I told you, my leg can't be cured at all, don't waste your energy."

Mu Yibai clenched his hands in his sleeves, veins bulging. Could it be that she despised his disability?

He had experienced betrayal in his previous life, and he had done his best to try to accept Fu Yunxi. In the past two days, he could see that Fu Yunxi treated her family sincerely, and he was gradually accepting her. But if she disliked his legs, he would definitely not keep her, even if the space could bring many conveniences.

"My efforts are not in vain. Look, the Mu family was confiscated and exiled. The whole family is struggling to support themselves. You are the pillar of the family. If you can't cheer up, who can they rely on? Besides, if you don't trust me, how can grandmother and others trust me? I also plan to give my eldest sister-in-law a full body check-up. She is still traveling long distances while pregnant for four months. This may be your eldest brother's orphan. Can you rest assured?"

Fu Yunxi's words were like a warm summer breeze, brushing against his restless heart, softly but firmly. These words should have been more infuriating, but he couldn't get angry. He had tried not to have any hope, but Fu Yunxi always stirred up ripples in his heart.

Seeing that Mu Yibai's expression had relaxed a little, Fu Yunxi immediately stepped forward and lifted up his trouser legs: "Let me, a miracle doctor, examine you. Maybe I can cure you."

Mu Yibai was at a loss for what to do with her actions. Before he could stop her, his trouser legs were lifted up, revealing a hideous calf.

Fu Yunxi felt regretful. This was too different from the handsome face of the villain. A scar ran across his leg, like a knife wound, more than ten centimeters long. The surrounding muscles had begun to atrophy. This leg was completely unlike that of the boy. How much pain he must have endured!

"Is this shocking to you? It's really ugly. My leg injury has lasted for more than a year. At first, it was just a wound, but for some reason it kept healing. Later, I lost feeling in my leg and it gradually became like this."

"It's not ugly. This is your medal for killing the enemy, proof of your bravery. I'm just surprised. You must have endured a lot of pain in the process."

Fu Yunxi gently stroked Mu Yibai's calf while speaking, and then lifted up the other trouser leg. Some old scars were also accompanied by muscle atrophy, which was extremely inconsistent with the body. His body was shocked, and his legs had long lost the feeling of others' touch, but Fu Yunxi was the first person to say that scars were medals and cared about his suffering.

"Fortunately, it's all over. I suspect the knife that hurt me was poisonous, which made the wound difficult to heal. This year, I went to many famous doctors, but no one said my leg could be healed."

However, this year and even in my previous life, I sought help from many famous doctors, but no one said that my leg could be healed.

Fu Yunxi noticed Mu Yibai's despair. She checked his legs and found that there was nothing wrong with his bones and his muscles were slightly atrophied. He only needed more massage to relieve the pain and subsequent rehabilitation to gradually recover. Other problems required testing before diagnosis. This was the limitation of modern medicine. Although she was engaged in scientific research and medical equipment research, she only knew a little about Chinese medicine. Modern medicine was highly dependent on various examination methods, such as blood sampling, MRI, and imaging.

She could only persuade Mu Yibai to accept the full-automatic medical equipment test in her space to clarify the symptoms.

"What instrument? My legs have been examined by many famous doctors." Mu Yibai asked doubtfully.

"This instrument is not available to those miracle doctors. It won't make you waste your time. Go to the bed and take off your pants. I'll get the instrument out for you to check. It will be quick." Fu Yunxi ordered.

Mu Yibai was so shocked by her words that he held his forehead. Whose daughter was she to speak so shockingly? He obediently drove his wheelchair to the bedside and jumped onto the bed with his inner strength, but he was at a loss as to what to do next. How should he take off his pants? Should he take them off completely or just roll up the trouser legs? He felt very confused and helpless, but it was too difficult to ask, so he simply lay on the bed and did not move.
