Little Treasure complained, “Why are you walking so slowly, can’t you run?”
Xiao Cui really started jogging when being told off.
While Xiao Cui jogged, she checked and noticed Huan Qing Yan and Little Treasure were still in a state of walking. Nevertheless, their speed was comparable to the jogging Xiao Cui. The trio soon reached Wang Niu Niu’s place.
It was a quiet and serene little courtyard house. The courtyard was filled with unknown climbing plants with blue flowers that were currently blooming beautifully.
Huan Qing Yan was startled when she saw the flowers, “Little Treasure, yesterday the both of you did not send Niu Niu back to her place?”
“That’s right Mother, Dad and I handed Wang Niu Niu to the Wang Family at their entrance.”
Huan Qing Yan nodded.
Xiao Cui pushed the door and invited the two to enter.
The decorations within the place were considered good in Nameless Town’s standards. There were also several vases holding the blooming blue flowers like those outside, making the home extremely beautiful.
The three went to the bedroom, there was a large bed with a satin curtain on its side. On the bed was a young girl breathing weakly.
The young girl was currently flushed due to high fever, one could also notice that she was feeling terrible from the occasional groan she released.
“Mother, mother…”
When Xiao Cui saw the scene, she immediately cried. “Young Lady, I have visited Madam’s place in the morning, but Madam has been unconscious for several days already and is not awake even now. Young Lady, please endure, Xiao Cui will definitely get a doctor to look at you.”
After she spoke, Xiao Cui turned to Huan Qing Yan. “Okay, now that you have met the Young Lady, please put the things there and leave. I need to head out to call a doctor…”
Huan Qing Yan held back Xiao Cui who was about to dash out, “Wait. There is no need to hurry. Let me take a look at her.”
Xiao Cui unconsciously replied, “You are just a chef, not a doctor…”
Little Treasure rudely scolded Xiao Cui from the side, “Shut up, you will not lose anything even if my mother takes a look. In the first place, do you have the money to call the doctor?”
Xiao Cui was dumbstruck by those words.
Before Xiao Cui could react, she saw Huan Qing Yan walking to the side of the bed. When looking at the poise and calm behaviour that did not match the appearance of a young madam, Xiao Cui could not help but feel a surge of hope welling up in her.
Huan Qing Yan touched the little girl that was burning up like a cooked shrimp, the temperature was shockingly high.
“What did she eat yesterday?” The voice was serene and contained a warmth that would attract people.
Xiao Cui’s anxiousness finally reduced slightly, “Breakfast is food from your soup, while lunch and dinner are the standard dishes that are cooked by the family chef. Right, the Young Lady also drank the medicine issued by Doctor Zhou last night as well.”
“What medicine is that? Do you still have it? I wish to take a look.” Huan Qing Yan asked.
Xiao Cui released a sound of shock, was the medicine the problem?
“Doctor Zhou said yesterday that the Young Lady’s illness was nothing serious and will only require one serving of medicine. There is no more left after the Young Lady drank it.”
“What about the residual herbs?”
Xiao Cui quickly replied, “I threw it at the garden beside the courtyard house. I will go look for it.”
When Little Treasure heard Xiao Cui’s reply, he immediately leapt out through the window and returned shortly.
In his hands were a bunch of cooked herbs.
Huan Qing Yan took a pinch and smelled at it. Using that moment to analyse the contents of the mixture by using the dimension.
“Mixed herbs one serving. Contains Veratrum, Salvia Miltiorrhiza, Paeonia Anomala. Becomes poisonous after mixing together…”
Individually, these herbs were indeed used for treating different illnesses, but when cooked together, they would become poison!
