"It's okay, you're not disturbing."
Xu Ying saw that Qiao Yuxi was quietly keeping her mouth shut, looking guilty as if she'd done something wrong, glancing left and right.
She couldn't help but smile, feeling an increased affection for Qiao Yuxi.
For de-worming birds, it's common to use an herbal medicine called Baibu, boiled for a medicinal bath for external de-worming.
Baibu, when taken internally, can relieve cough and asthma; applied externally, it can kill parasites and lice.
Xu Ying poured the boiled Baibu water into a basin, and when the water temperature matched her hand, she brought over the female owl.
She gently reassured the owl, "In a moment, your feathers will get wet, which you might not be used to."
"But don't worry, this water will kill the little bugs on you."
The owl obediently nodded, lying on its back as Xu Ying placed it into the medicinal bath, curling its little bird claws, its round eyes spinning around adorably.
