The clear water flowed down her body, easing the itch by quite a lot. Bai Qingqing dived into the water, washing her hair as well. She felt very refreshed after that.

Parker gently touched the scratch marks on the back of her neck, his heart aching for her as he said, “Let’s go back quickly.”

“I’m really fine.” Bai Qingqing turned, scooped up a handful of water, and splashed it toward him. She grinned and said, “You should wash up too.”

Parker just stood there as his face was drenched by the water. He wasn’t affected by Bai Qingqing’s happiness. Seeing that she was done washing up, he carried her up to the shore.

He was still thinking of using the animal skin next to the pile of grains to cover her, but when she saw the chaffs all over it, she quickly said, “Don’t use that. I was made itchy because of the dust. I’ll go back like this.”

Parker raised his head and looked toward the blazing sun in the sky. He couldn’t bear to let Bai Qingqing be in the sun, so he climbed up a tree and plucked off a large leaf to cover her up.

The two of them went home and Winston brought Harvey over.

As a doctor, Harvey was even harsher when looking at ailments. When Parker removed the leaf covering Bai Qingqing, Harvey’s face turned pale.

Bai Qingqing was too fair and the slightest bit of wound could be seen clearly. Moreover, after her wounds had been drenched in sweat, they turned even redder, looking very exaggerated.

Even when Bai Qingqing lowered her head to look at herself, she was given a scare. However, she knew that the scratch marks would turn faint very quickly. It was just that they had covered a large area this time around.

“Quickly put her down!” Harvey dashed over and bellowed out loudly.

Parker became even more anxious and quickly placed Bai Qingqing on the floor.

Bai Qingqing raised her butt up a little. The drenched tiger skin skirt that she was wearing had left a stretch of watermarks on the ground. She requested feebly, “Can you let me change out of my clothes first?”

“Let the doctor take a look first,” Parker said with a solemn expression.

Alright. Bai Qingqing accepted her fate and sat down properly.

Harvey squatted by Bai Qingqing’s side, took a careful look at her scratch marks, and asked, “How did you get this? Were you tangled up by plants?”

“I scratched them myself. The wild grains’ chaff made me very itchy.” Bai Qingqing said, “I didn’t itch after I washed up.”

Harvey was struck by a realization. “So the wild grains’ chaffs are poisonous for females. When I go back later, I must warn everyone to not let the females touch the wild grains’ chaff.”

Bai Qingqing was speechless.

Harvey said, “I remember that you like to use medicinal herbs to roast meat. Do you have garlic at home?”

Parker immediately said, “Yes. I’ll go get them.”

The kitchen was several hundred meters from the main hall. It didn’t take Parker ten seconds to make a trip there and back. He put a basin of garlic on the ground and then squatted down, panting furiously.

Bai Qingqing watched as Harvey peeled off the garlic’s skin and she shrank back a little. “What… What are you going to do?”

“Garlic can be used for disinfecting. You’ll get better after applying it on your body,” Harvey said as he used a stone mortar to mash up the garlic.

Bai Qingqing put up a struggle, wanting to flee. She hadn’t experienced before what it felt like to put garlic on wounds, but when her cousin from the countryside had grown lots of lumps all over his body after climbing a tree, the adults had applied garlic on him. She knew from her cousin’s hysterical crying that it wouldn’t feel good.

She had merely gotten some dust onto her and wasn’t itching anymore. There wasn’t any need for disinfection at all!

Parker held onto Bai Qingqing’s shoulders and said to her in a gentle voice, “Don’t be scared. Listen to the doctor.”

“I’m not applying that!” Bai Qingqing shouted loudly but was unable to escape with Parker pressing her down.

Harvey steeled his heart and applied the garlic onto Bai Qingqing’s wounds.

“Ahhh!” Bai Qingqing let out a cry, her face wrinkling up into a bun. “It hurts so much!”
