Chapter 223 - 223: 223 Snake



With a flick of her hand, she threw her out of the Xiao Family’s courtyard like a piece of merchandise.

And so, there was no outsider left in the house or in the yard.

Villagers watched Su Qingyue’s actions outside the courtyard, too stunned to speak. Liu Zhengshi had always been unpopular, and no one reached out to help her.

Wang Cuihua stood at the entrance of the courtyard, “Qingyue, do you need me to stay and help you?”

Li Gui also snapped out of his stupor, “I can help, too…”

Mindful of the gender restrictions and the audience of villagers, Su Qingyue did not want the villagers to think she had any involvement with Li Gui. She simply said, “Thanks for your kind offer, Brother Li, let Cuihua stay.”

She could use an extra hand for decocting medicine when she was administering acupuncture to her second brother.

Wang Cuihua hurriedly entered the courtyard.

Su Qingyue added, “Could you please inform Cuihua’s husband, Brother Li, and let him know he doesn’t need to look for Doctor Sun?”

“This…” Li Gui wasn’t sure what Su Qingyue was thinking. He saw her skillfully treating Xiao Yishan’s wound, her movements were professional, just like a seasoned doctor. Whenever he looked at her, ever since Xiao Yishan brought her back from town, he felt her calm and composed nature was inexplicably appealing. He had seen her in the village before.

She had changed so much…

Even though she was still the same person. He complied, “I’ll send someone to inform Zhou Fuquan.”

“Thank you.”

“It’s not a big deal.” In fact, Li Gui really wanted to stay. At this moment, Qingyue, a single woman, must feel helpless and lost. However, considering all the gossip, she declined his offer to stay. So, he had no choice but to leave for

now.

When the villagers heard that Qingyue didn’t want to call the doctor, some commented, “How could Su Qingyue be so cruel? She won’t even let the Xiao Family’s second and third son call a doctor. What if they die…”

“She probably wants to save a few bucks. I heard that whenever Chuan passes out, it costs several taels of silver per treatment. The second brother Xiao looks like a lost cause… It doesn’t hurt to save a little in a poor family.”

“I am afraid she has ulterior motives, and wants the Xiao Family’s men to die so she can escape…”

Su Qingyue didn’t bother with what others were saying. She simply closed the courtyard door and returned to her room.

Today, luck was on her side as she found several plants of a medical herb called Seven-leaf-one-flower among the herbs she had collected.

This herb could not only be taken internally and applied externally, but it was also effective in treating purulent infections, traumatic injuries, snake and bug bites, and more. It could be said that it was an excellent medicinal ingredient.

She initially planned to mix it with poison spider juice to treat her facial injuries, but saving her second brother was more important now. The primary ingredient in the medicine she used to treat his wound was the Seven-leaf-one-flower herb. She found a few more herbs and mixed them with other ingredients. She handed them to Wang Cuihua, estimating the dosage, “Help me clean these up, decoct them with five bowls of water down to one bowl.”

Wang Cuihua regained her senses, “Are these herbs?”

“Yes, they can reduce swelling, ease pain, clear heat, and detoxify the body.

They’re for the second brother to take internally.”

“I’ll do it right away.” Wang Cuihua took the herbs and rushed to the kitchen. Upon arriving in the kitchen, she was startled by a snake in one corner and screamed, “Ah!”

Su Qingyue hurried over, “What’s wrong?”

“A snake…” Wang Cuihua pointed to the thick, alternating black and square-patterned snake in the corner.

“That snake is dead.” Su Qingyue saw it when she was decocting medicine in the kitchen earlier, “Just use the small stove for decocting the medicine, it’s less trouble than starting a fire.”

“Oh,” Wang Cuihua nodded, still in a state of shock..
