She cherished her current life greatly—the master was benevolent and generous, the atmosphere warm and tranquil, giving her the feeling of being at home.

But at the end of the day, she was a woman, and when the night fell silent, she, too, hoped for someone to cherish and love her, to share the simple happiness of mutual care and concern.

Seeing Qiao Niangzi's thoughts, Yang Mengchen, who sat quietly beside her, smiled and said, "Qiao Niangzi has forgotten that Aunty Xiao is a few years older than you are, and the Eldest Princess once accidentally ingested Sterility Powder, but now, don't they both have their own offspring?"

Qiao Niangzi suddenly looked up at Yang Mengchen. That's right; the Eldest Princess and Lady Xiao had children after receiving treatment and care from the young lady, each of them now having twins. That meant the young lady could also cure her, and she could have her own child, even if it was just a daughter.

"Don't worry, if you don't want to, we won't force you," Yang Mengchen said, even though she knew Qiao Niangzi's wishes, she still wanted to ask clearly face to face.

Without hesitating, Qiao Niangzi knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "This servant thanks the masters for their grace, I am willing!"

"With the year-end approaching, there are many things to handle in the mansion, so we will arrange the wedding for you next spring," Xiao Wanxue said with a smile, "Our mansion has one happy event after another—it's truly a good omen!"

Yang Mengchen smiled, nodded in agreement, and then gestured for Qiao Niangzi to extend her hand. After taking her pulse for a moment, she said, "You can rest assured and embroider your wedding dress." Though Qiao Niangzi had taken medicine for a longer time than the Eldest Princess had, the medicine's potency was not as strong as the secret imperial medicine consumed by the Eldest Princess.

"This servant thanks the young lady for her immense grace and favor!" Qiao Niangzi was relieved and tearfully grateful.

Soon, everyone in the mansion knew about the good news, and they all congratulated the two.

Considering that they had to prepare for the wedding, Yang Mengchen intentionally reduced their workload. However, the two managed their affairs as usual, not giving the Yang family a moment's worry, with everything well arranged.

Before the New Year, Long Xuanmo took Long Yingtong and Long YiXuan away, and Nangong Ling Yao, having recovered, left with Nangong Lingfei to return home. Xiao Hongtao and his family moved to Qinghe Prefecture, and after writing a memorial to the Emperor, he recommended promoting the former Senior Minister Zhou De'an to be the new County Magistrate of Yongchang County, which the Emperor approved.

The Luo family also went back to the capital for the holiday.

After visiting Long Jingxi and her family, Yang Mengchen and her family celebrated a lively and festive New Year.

On the ninth day of the first month, Uncle Heng and Qiao Niangzi had their wedding. The Yang family gave them a generous wedding gift, which both moved them and Shao Yao to tears.

That day, after receiving a letter from Yang Chenghong, Yang Mengchen prepared to set out for Qinghe Prefecture with Sister Jin and nine others in a carriage (Yang Chenghong had gone to Qinghe Prefecture to inspect new projects after the New Year). They decided to take a trip to the town first.

After inspecting the shops, the group had just reached the outside of the hospital when they saw a large crowd gathered around the entrance, accompanied by a man's pained moaning and a heart-wrenching elderly voice crying, "Doctor, Doctor, please save my son!"

Quickly, two nurses ran out upon hearing the commotion—one stayed to comfort the patient, and the other hurried back, returning shortly with Doctor Jiang pushing a mobile bed. The onlookers helped lift the man onto the bed.

"Doctor, please save my son." A disheveled old woman grabbed hold of Doctor Jiang's sleeve and knelt on the ground, weeping and begging.

"Madam, please get up first." Doctor Jiang helped the old woman up, then examined the man's condition. His face changed dramatically upon seeing that the man's left arm was severed, apparently cut off by a sharp instrument. "Nurse Li, hurry and notify the Dean, Doctor Luo, Doctor Yao, and Doctor Zhang. Nurse Wang and I will take the patient to the operating room first."

The man was covered in blood, and without prompt medical attention, his life was in grave danger. But since his entire left arm was severed, Doctor Jiang didn't have the ability to treat him. He could only hope that the Dean and the others would have a way.

Watching Doctor Jiang and two nurses handle the emergency situation calmly and methodically, especially Doctor Jiang decisively notifying others despite knowing he couldn't treat the case himself, Yang Mengchen nodded approvingly to himself.

Just then, Doctor Luo came out upon hearing the commotion. "What's going on?"

"Doctor Luo!" Seeing Doctor Luo, the old lady pleaded as if clutching at a lifesaver, "Dongzi was working at the Ironworker Shop. Today, he accidentally fell, and his left hand landed on the edge of a horizontal blade, severing his arm. Our family entirely depends on Dongzi for support. If he's crippled, how will our family of women and children survive?"

The sounds of desperate crying left the onlookers filled with sympathy, and some of the softer-hearted couldn't help shedding tears as well.

Doctor Luo, after examining the situation, felt somewhat unsure. The little girl had indeed taught them how to perform reattachment surgery for severed limbs, but the man's condition was too severe, and they were not certain about the procedure. If the little girl were here, there might be a way. Now, they could only do their best.

He ordered the nurses to take the patient and the severed limb to the operating room. Doctor Luo was about to follow when his eyes suddenly lit up upon seeing Yang Mengchen standing nearby. "Little girl, what brings you here?"

Hearing the obvious surprise and joy in Doctor Luo's voice, everyone followed his gaze, spotting a young girl. They were curious or surprised as to why Doctor Luo was so happy, but they stepped aside to make a path for her.

"I'm here to take a look," Yang Mengchen replied while walking towards Doctor Luo. "Let's go to the operating room to treat the patient first."

Doctor Luo followed cheerfully, it seemed that today the little girl was going to work another miracle.

Hai Tang supported the old woman, while Sister Jin and seven others followed closely behind the two, arriving at the operating room. Nine people, including the old woman, waited outside as the three members of the Yang family arrived. After glancing at the group, they went straight into the operating room.

Doctor Jiang and Nurse Wang brought the patient to the outer area of the operating room. Nurses Zhang and Zhao took over, following which the two returned to their workstations. Nurse Zhang and Nurse Zhao brought the patient to the operating table, one hung a drip as per Yang Mengchen's instruction, and the other prepared the surgical instruments.

Upon reaching the operating table, Yang Mengchen first tied a tourniquet on the upper part of the man's severed arm. Then, using a cotton ball, she wiped the blood from the severed area, took out the Black Needle, and quickly and precisely sealed his acupoints. Soon, the bleeding stopped, and the man naturally lost consciousness.

She then untied the tourniquet, pulled out the veins at the break site and the severed arm with tweezers and meticulously sewed and joined them together with a needle.

Yang Cheng'an and the other three assistants watched intently, without missing a single detail, as Nurse Zhao occasionally wiped Yang Mengchen's sweat.

"Seventh Brother, continue suturing." After joining the tendons, Yang Mengchen handed the muscle suturing surgery to Yang Cheng'an and stood aside to watch.

Yang Cheng'an calmly completed the final part of the surgery, then sprinkled their family's antiseptic medicine over the wound and wrapped it up. Yang Mengchen looked on with approval in her eyes.
