Chapter 303 Treatment for Fourth Brother Can Begin Today

Hearing that the detoxification was successful, He Zhiran finally felt relieved.

After all, the antidote she had concocted hadn't undergone any clinical trials and was entirely based on her own experience and recipe.

"Their current weakness is inevitable; they've been poisoned for so long without proper nourishment. It's already a miracle that they're still alive."

As for how Mo Jiuye would settle them, He Zhiran didn't plan to worry about it.

In her opinion, what these soldiers most wanted right now was to reunite with their families.

"I've just told them about their experiences. They feel guilty towards their families and plan to return once they recover a bit."

"Return?" He Zhiran was somewhat puzzled.

"Yes, to visit. They said they plan to live in the Northwest with the Mo family. Emperor Shunwu is so incompetent that they no longer wish to serve such a ruler," Mo Jiuye explained.

He Zhiran had no objections to these people coming to live in the Northwest.

Not only were they former members of the Mo family, but even if they weren't, the Northwest needed more hands for its future development.

This arrangement was perfect. Neither Mo Jiuye nor she had grand ambitions; they only wished to find their missing family members and live a peaceful life free from deceit.

These men, like the sons of the Mo family, had endured years of control and suffered irreparable psychological trauma. They had lost faith in the government.

Moreover, as military men, their future livelihoods would be difficult if they didn't serve the government. It would be better for everyone to live together happily.

He Zhiran deeply admired these soldiers who had shed blood for their country. Whether in modern times or ancient ones, she could not ignore these brave men who protected their homeland.

Of course, she also wanted them to willingly follow the Mo family and wouldn't force anyone.

The Mo brothers had already discussed that they wouldn't tell the women of the family about this yet, to avoid upsetting them. Once those men recovered and appeared healthy, it would be less distressing.

For three consecutive days, the Mo brothers spent their days on the mountain caring for the old comrades while He Zhiran focused on researching treatment for Fourth Brother.

Fourth Brother's health had improved significantly, especially with Fourth Sister-in-law's attentive care. He looked much healthier.

With Mo Jiuye away, He Zhiran could only give him a simple pulse check to assess his condition.

After the examination, she could preliminarily determine that Fourth Brother's body had reached the standard required for surgery.

Since this was the case, it was best to schedule the operation soon. He Zhiran considered that her pregnancy would make it increasingly difficult to perform such a demanding procedure.

Fourth Brother's condition was special; he had multiple bone fractures and extensive tissue necrosis. Treating him would be a significant challenge for any doctor's endurance.

She planned to have Mo Jiuye stay home tomorrow and bring Fourth Brother into the space for a comprehensive checkup. If all indicators were satisfactory, she would proceed with the surgery immediately.

The next morning, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran went to Fourth Brother's room again.

"Fourth Brother, Zhiran says your condition has improved. She plans to give you another acupuncture session."

"Alright, thank you, Ninth Sister-in-law." Fourth Brother felt somewhat guilty. Having been saved by his ninth brother and sister-in-law, he had been paralyzed in bed, becoming a burden to the family.

Now, his pregnant sister-in-law was going to treat him. If not for his desire to recover quickly, he wouldn't dare trouble her.

He Zhiran glanced at Fourth Sister-in-law, who remained standing there.

"Fourth Sister-in-law, please go heat some water. We might need to help Fourth Brother clean up later."

This was an excuse to get Fourth Sister-in-law out of the room.

After all, she needed to take Fourth Brother into the space to use advanced medical equipment for a thorough checkup, which couldn't be done with others around.

Mo Jiuye locked the door after Fourth Sister-in-law left.

"Zhiran, take Fourth Brother into the space. I'll keep watch here."

He Zhiran nodded and brought Fourth Brother into the space.

Using her mind, she quickly conducted a full-body checkup on him.

To avoid making Mo Jiuye wait too long, she brought the newly generated test results and Fourth Brother back.

Mo Jiuye, who had just sent Fourth Sister-in-law away, was pacing anxiously when he saw He Zhiran come out. He approached her and asked, "Zhiran, how is Fourth Brother?"

He Zhiran carefully reviewed the test reports.

"All indicators are satisfactory. We can perform the surgery today."

Mo Jiuye was delighted but worried about his wife's health.

"Zhiran, when treating Fourth Brother, try to let me do the work."

Me do the work?

Even with her years of medical experience, she couldn't guarantee success with this surgery. Letting someone without medical knowledge handle it would be worse than euthanasia.

However, she didn't discourage Mo Jiuye. To ease his concerns, she replied, "Alright, I'll let you handle whatever you can."

Fourth Brother was still unconscious, and the surgery needed to be performed in the space.

Both Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran felt it would be safer to do it in their own room.

Just as they decided this, someone knocked on the door.

"Ninth Brother, Ninth Sister-in-law, when can I come in?"

Sis-in-Law's tone was somewhat urgent; she knew that Ninth Sister-in-Law was treating her own husband, but she just wanted to stay by his side and watch everything with her own eyes, wanting to see Ninth Sister-in-Law treat her husband.

He Zhiran could understand Sis-in-Law's feelings. If it were Mo Jiuye being treated, she would also want to stay.

However, her treatment method couldn't be exposed to others, so she had no choice but to let Sis-in-Law worry for a while longer.

Not only Sis-in-Law, but the other women in the family, upon hearing that she was going to treat Fourth Brother, rushed over as well.

Old Madam Mo's concern as a mother was no less than that of the fourth daughter-in-law.

Her hands trembled slightly as she held He Zhiran's hand.

"Child, Mother knows you're feeling unwell due to your pregnancy, yet you still agreed to treat your Fourth Brother at this time. Mother will remember your kindness."

Seeing the elderly lady's tears welling up, He Zhiran quickly covered her hand.

"Mother, don't worry. I'll rest if I get tired, and I will do my best to treat Fourth Brother's injuries."

Old Madam Mo was always considerate and knew when to stop. She wouldn't go on endlessly like many other women.

She gently squeezed He Zhiran's hand and then ushered the other women out, telling them not to stay and cause any disturbance.

Old Madam Mo's actions inadvertently helped both Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran, sparing them the trouble of having to ask people to leave themselves.
