The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion-Chapter 417: I’m not Dead
Chapter 417
After settling his elder brothers, Mo Jiuye went back to fetch He Zhiran.
He Zhiran was anxiously waiting for news, and when he saw Mo Jiuye return, he quickly asked, "How are my elder brothers? Were they injured?"
Mo Jiuye's expression became solemn. "Zhiran, come with me to Fifth Brother's house."
In front of their mother-in-law, Mo Jiuye couldn't explain too clearly. He just greeted Madam He and pulled He Zhiran away.
Madam He didn't know what had happened in the Mo family, but seeing her son-in-law's anxious look, she knew it must be something serious.
However, she understood boundaries and wouldn't inquire about matters that others didn't want to discuss.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran arrived at Fifth Brother's house. Fifth and Sixth Brother were just about to help clean up their bodies. When they saw them coming, they stopped their actions and willingly made way for He Zhiran.
Although Fifth and Seventh Brother had already started cleaning them up, it was still not as effective as not doing anything at all.
The faces of the elder brothers were covered in black and white marks, which looked amusing.
Helplessly, He Zhiran held back her laughter and approached them to check their pulses.
Seeing her stop, Fifth Brother anxiously asked, "Ninth Younger Sister-in-Law, how are they doing?"
"Fifth Brother, don't worry. It seems that they suffered head injuries, but they just need a few days of rest to recover."
In modern terms, this would be diagnosed as a concussion.
Of course, concussions can vary in severity, but He Zhiran was certain that the elder brothers had only experienced mild to moderate concussions and would be fine.
Moreover, their current state of unconsciousness was normal, and they would wake up soon enough.
As for the injuries on their bodies, they were mostly superficial scrapes and bruises, which could be cleaned and treated with some medicine after their bodies were cleaned.
"Ninth Younger Sister-in-Law, are you sure they're fine?" After all, all of them were in a comatose state, and Fifth Brother found it hard to believe.
"They are not in any life-threatening danger, but someone should be by their side when they wake up. They might experience vomiting and dizziness."
Saying so, He Zhiran took a step towards the exit, with Mo Jiuye following closely behind, because he knew his wife intended to find a secluded place in the space to retrieve some medicine.
Indeed, that was the reason He Zhiran left. Besides, the three elder brothers were extremely dirty, and their clothes were probably torn. If they weren't covered with a blanket, they wouldn't be presentable.
While she was away, Fifth Brother and the others took the opportunity to clean them up.
As He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye left Fifth Brother's house and prepared to take a walk down the foot of the mountain, they saw Old Lady Mo and several sisters-in-law walking towards them.
"Jiuye, what happened?"
They had also heard the explosion just now. However, they didn't know the power of explosives, let alone that their own sons had an accident.
It was because Mo Jiuye and the others were carrying their unconscious elder brothers down the mountain when they happened to be noticed by Yu Er, who then went to inform them.
"Mother, there's nothing to worry about. Big Brother and the others had a minor accident on the mountain, and Ruirui and I were just about to go back and get some medicine."
The mother and the sisters-in-law would soon go to Fifth Brother's house to check on the situation. Mo Jiuye didn't want them to worry, but he couldn't evade the truth. He could only tell them what had happened without exaggerating.
Even so, the sisters-in-law were still quite frightened.
Especially Second Sister-in-law, who had always had a loud voice.
"Jiudie, how is your Second Brother? He won't die, will he?"
As soon as she said this, even the usually dignified Eldest Sister-in-law couldn't remain calm, because her husband had been on the mountain these past few days.
Third Sister-in-law and Fifth Sister-in-law also felt that asking questions would only waste time. They bypassed Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran and ran straight into Fifth Brother's courtyard.
Seeing that they had all gone in, Second Sister-in-law quickly realized what was happening and followed them inside.
Old Lady Mo, on the other hand, remained calm and composed. She believed her ninth son's words. If something truly dangerous had happened to those brothers, he wouldn't be able to remain so calm.
Therefore, the old lady walked in calmly. Just as she reached the door, she heard a burst of crying and wailing coming from inside the house...
"Husband, wake up quickly, you can't die... Open your eyes and look at me... If you die again this time, I won't live either... Sob, sob, sob..."
Everyone stood there dumbfounded, watching Second Sister-in-law who was crying hysterically.
Although the other sisters-in-law who had rushed in were not as exaggerated as her, they were all shedding tears around their own husbands. Only Fifth Sister-in-law was better off. Although her husband looked pale, he was standing there just fine.
Fifth Sister-in-law didn't mind getting dirty. She held onto Fifth Brother's arm and watched the other sisters-in-law cry, wiping her own tears as well.
Old Lady Mo was observant and could read people's expressions. Seeing her fifth and sixth sons standing there without much sadness on their faces, she knew that those daughters-in-law had made a mistake.
"Alright, all of you stop crying. Didn't Jiuye say that they just had a minor accident? If something had really happened, how could your Ninth Brother and Ninth Sister-in-law leave?"
Although the sisters-in-law usually listened to their mother-in-law, at this moment, with their husbands having lost their lives, they couldn't take in her words.
When Old Lady Mo saw that her words had no effect, she slammed the table next to her with anger.
"Didn't any of you hear what I said?"
This time, her voice was raised, and the sisters-in-law finally reacted.
Second Sister-in-law choked and said, "Mother, my husband has lost his life. Can't I cry?"
When Old Lady Mo saw Second Daughter-in-law in this state, she was about to say something, but at that moment, Second Brother, who was lying on the bed, let out a slight cough.
Then he murmured, "I'm not dead..."
Although his voice was weak, right after Old Lady Mo scolded them, the room fell silent, and everyone could hear it.
Everyone looked towards Second Brother.
At this moment, Second Sister-in-law had already thrown herself onto him and was shaking him vigorously.
"Husband, you really didn't die... Sob, sob, sob... It's great that you're still alive... Sob, sob, sob..."
"Mm..." Second Brother groaned as he was being shaken, and then he said, "I'm not dead, but you're nearly shaking me to death."
Only then did Second Sister-in-law realize that she had been a bit rough and quickly straightened up.
"Darling, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. I thought you were dead, that's why I acted this way..."
Upon seeing that Mo Jiacheng had already awakened, Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law assumed that their own husbands would be fine, and half of the gloom in their hearts instantly dissipated.
At this moment, Sixth Elder Brother placed a basin of clean water in the room, along with freshly washed face towels.
The sisters-in-law immediately understood what was going on and approached to help their respective husbands wipe their faces with the towels.
While wiping, the elder brothers gradually woke up one after another, experiencing the nausea and dizziness as described by He Zhiran.
