The Whole Village Thrives After Adopting a Lucky Girl-Chapter 307 - 303: Poisoned_1

Chapter 307: Chapter 303: Poisoned_1

The next day, right after breakfast, Wei Zhan hurriedly dragged Yingbao out of the door.

Wen Hengyin was somewhat displeased, knocking Wei Zhan’s hand away. “What kind of behavior is that!”

Yingbao, after all, is her mother’s student, already seven or eight years old, and it doesn’t seem right to be dragged around by a boy of eight or nine years old.

Wei Zhan didn’t pay any mind to what Wen Hengyin said, he ordered a servant to call a horse-drawn carriage and invited Yingbao and Wen Shu to get in.

Arriving at the gate of the Wei Mansion in no time, Yingbao surveyed the large entrance, and she and Sister Wen Shu got out of the carriage.

The Wei Family is a wealthy household, with a wide range of businesses.

They deal in silk fabrics, gold jewellery, fur, tea and more, they also operate several banks, as well as canal transport docks, etc.

Unfortunately, the matriarch of the Wei Family, from the Wang Family, is not in good health. She only gave birth to Wei Zhan, and yet remains sickly.

If Mrs. Wang should pass away early, Wei Zhan is still young, it’s unknown who will then inherit this large family estate.

It is rumored that the head of Wei Family has many concubines, including two respected wives who have given birth to children of their own.

“Young Master, you’re back, Madame has been waiting for you.” The steward of the Wei Residence saw the young master and hurried over to take care of the horses.

With head held high, Wei Zhan said, “I brought the little Divine Doctor. Move aside, you’re in the way.”

The steward quickly moved out of the way, lowering his head slightly. With a sidelong glance, he noticed the two young girls who had just descended from the carriage, and he sneered inwardly.

Wei Zhan led the group, comprised of Zhang Min, Wen Hengyin, and Yingbao and Wen Shu, hurrying towards the inner courtyard.

As the crone at the gate of the inner courtyard wanted to stop them, she was stared down by a glowering look from Wei Zhan.

Once at the main hall, a maid quickly ran inside to report their arrival.

“Madam, the Young Master has brought a group of people in, you see…”

Mrs. Wang sat up in bed and quietly instructed, “Let them in.”

Her son’s servant had already reported that he had invited a small Divine Doctor.

Mrs. Wang gave a bitter smile.

For the rare filial piety shown by her son, she would have to keep up appearances and play host.

The young servant girl rushed out, inviting the group to sit in the parlor, stating that the Madam would be there soon.

As a result, Yingbao and the others followed Wei Zhan into the parlor. A young servant girl brought in tea and served each of them treats.

Mrs. Wang’s personal maid combed her hair and applied a little makeup. Suddenly remembering the small Divine Doctor was about to examine her, she quickly moved to remove the makeup from Mrs. Wang.

“Never mind, let it be.” Mrs. Wang stood up, letting her maid help her change her outer garment and put on her shoes before leaving the bedroom.

“Mother! Come and see the little Divine Doctor I found for you.” Seeing his mother come out, Wei Zhan quickly got up and helped her.

Mrs. Wang gave a slight nod and a smile to the group, sitting down on the main armchair.

The group introduced themselves one by one.

Mrs. Wang nodded to them to sit down, then said to Yingbao, “Please, Little Divine Doctor, can you check this sickly woman?”

Yingbao did not stand on ceremony, she took her pulse, then said, “In fact, I have now switched to the Forbidden Curse Technique. If Madam doesn’t mind, I can perform a ceremony and request a divine command for you.”

Mrs. Wang smiled gently, “Little Divine Doctor need not disparage yourself. Just perform the spell, I will be very grateful.”

“Alright, Madam please stay still.” Yingbao took out a white feathered fan from her bag. It was something she had borrowed from her elder disciple brother, and the handle of the fan had a spell engraved on it.

Yingbao murmured an exorcism spell while performing a dance to summon the gods.

She was small and wore white magical robes. As she stomped her feet and spun around, her dance was particularly enchanting.

“The great ancestor of water from Taiyi, renew the divine light by raising hand to mouth, cleanse the five internal organs and enter the embryonic sac; the spleen, kidney, and the warehouse are as bright as eyes and ears, and a hundred diseases are eliminated, the evil spirits disappear, as quick as the law!”

With a wave of his feather fan on the table, a porcelain bottle appeared on the surface.

Everyone was startled.

Wei Zhan couldn’t sit still and immediately grabbed the little porcelain bottle, asking Yingbao excitedly, “Yingbao, have you really brought the Divine Medicine?”

“Hmm, give it to Lady Wang later.” Yingbao put away her feather fan, took out a bag of golden needles from her small bag, and said to Lady Wang, “Lady Wang, let me give you an acupuncture treatment.”

Lady Wang nodded in agreement.

So, Yingbao went with her into the bedroom, asking her to take off her outer robe and lie on the bed.

Yingbao applied acupuncture to her waist and triple energizer, and then to the acupuncture points at the back of the neck; such as Houxi, Tianchuang, and Da Shu.

After the treatment, Yingbao asked her to drink the medicine in the small porcelain bottle and quietly whispered in her ear, “Madam, you’re poisoned. If we can’t find out where the poison came from, I’m afraid no one can cure you.”

In her own memory, it was mentioned that Lady Wang was poisoned by someone close to her. She had been slowly poisoned and eventually, her body gradually withered, and she died of organ failure.

Fortunately, Lady Wang often ate golden ears that Lady Wen gave her, or else, she would have already been dead. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Lady Wang frowned.

There have always been two doctors in her household, but neither of them had ever told her that she showed signs of poisoning.

However, last year Lady Wen seemed to have mentioned once that her illness was peculiar and seemed to be some kind of chronic poisoning.

But after taking the medicine prescribed by Lady Wen, she felt much better, so she suppressed her suspicion.

But she didn’t last for more than a few months before she started feeling unwell again.

Lady Wang also secretly investigated everything from her diet to her supplements, clothes, and incense. She checked everything and found nothing wrong.

But something was strange.

After dressing, Lady Wang asked all the maids to leave before asking Yingbao, “May I ask the Divine Doctor, what kind of poison do I have?”

“Aconitum, you’re poisoned with aconitum,” Yingbao said, “Aconitum doesn’t only poison through ingestion, you can still get poisoned if you bathe or wash your face with it.”

Lady Wang shuddered at these words.

She had not checked on these factors.

Yingbao continued, “For instance, if you take a bath every other day and after each bath you feel cold, have breathing difficulties, experience cramps in your hands and feet, dizziness, nausea… isn’t it?”

Lady Wang’s fingers trembled in fear, “Yes, that’s exactly what happens after I take a bath each time. I have always thought it was because my body was weak from a long illness and never considered the possibility of poisoning.”

The reason for her fear was that the person who helped her bathe was her personal maid, Ding Xiang, who she had brought from her maiden home.

Ding Xiang was the top maid in her room, had been with her for more than ten years, and also her husband’s concubine.

A few years ago, she had planned to find a reliable man for Ding Xiang to marry, but Ding Xiang flatly refused, pledging to serve her master all her life and vowing not to marry anyone else. She hadn’t expected…

Lady Wang only felt a chill in her hands and feet. If it hadn’t been for the little doctor who had given her a bottle of medicine, she probably would have fainted by now.

Yingbao continued, “Your poisoning can be easily addressed. I have an antidote made by boiling Gentiana and licorice here. Try drinking it for a few days. If there is no effect, you can boil Polygala Root with mountain honey and drink it. But the dose should not be large, otherwise, it will cause a second poisoning.”

As she spoke, she took out another larger porcelain bottle from her bag and handed it to Lady Wang, “Three times a day, two mouthfuls each time.”

“Thank you, Divine Doctor,” Lady Wang hurriedly took the porcelain bottle and added, “Please don’t tell anyone else about what you said earlier.”

Yingbao nodded, “As there is no confirmed conclusion yet, I won’t speak to anyone else about it. Please also avoid mentioning me to anyone else.”

She didn’t want to get involved in the dark secrets of a rich merchant’s family. She just reminded Lady Wang because she was modest and didn’t want to watch her die while standing by.
