Mu Jiuxi ran into the water cloud where his mother lived, and smelled a strong smell of medicine.

"Ahem, ahem." The coughing sound inside was uncomfortable to hear.

"Madame, Madame, the eldest lady is back." The old woman, Aunt Ying, called.

Mu Jiuxi had already rushed into the room, and when he saw that the person who was originally lying on the bed, he immediately sat up with the support of another foreign aunt.

"Mother." Mu Jiuxi ran to the bed and called nervously.

But when she looked at her mother's face, she felt a sigh in her heart, this complexion was white and blue, and she was not lightly ill, but the original owner's impression did not seem to be so serious.

"Xi'er, you're back." The eldest lady looks very atmospheric, her eyebrows and eyes are very generous, which shows that she was a big beauty when she was young.

At this moment, a pair of big eyes with blue and gray in them, but they were full of love to look at Mu Jiuxi, and they also reached out and held her hand tightly.

"Mother, I'm back, why did your illness worsen all of a sudden?" Mu Jiuxi immediately picked up her hand and began to take her pulse.

In her previous life, in order to break into a group that sold traditional Chinese medicine, she deliberately studied traditional Chinese medicine, and later went to the mountains on a mission, the environment was harsh, thanks to the herbs to save her life.

"Xi'er, mother, this is an old problem. Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem......" The eldest lady coughed as she spoke, and then coughed up a mouthful of blood, which was dark, and frightened the two aunts to exclaim again.

Under Mu Jiuxi's pulse, his complexion suddenly changed greatly, and then his whole body breath became gloomy and cold.

"Lu'er, quickly find a pair of silver needles, quickly!"

Lu'er was so frightened that he immediately agreed, turned his head and ran out.

"Dr. Wu should be coming soon." Wang Gu said.

Mu Jiuxi's eyes swept a few times on the faces of the two aunts, who were both maids of their mother's dowry and had been waiting for their mother's relatives for more than 20 years.

"Xi'er, why are you looking at the two aunts like this?" The eldest lady looked at her daughter's eyes and asked a little funny.

As soon as Mu Jiuxi wanted to speak, the second lady's anxious voice sounded outside: "Sister, are you okay?" ”

Saying that, Lu Weiya hurriedly came in, followed by Mu Zhuzhu.

"Sister, you have a heart, I'm an old problem." The eldest lady said gently.

"Sister, you have to be careful, now it's autumn, the weather is cold, you can't be infected with the wind cold, I heard my sister cough badly, I asked my subordinates to stew Shirley Chuanbei, sister should drink more."

Lu Weiya's concern on her face reminded Mu Jiuxi of the memory of the original owner.

I have the impression that this second lady is really a gentle and graceful, kind and pot-bellied woman, who gets along well with her mother and relatives, and loves her as a concubine.

Speaking of which, after the second lady gave birth to her by her mother, her body fell into the root of the disease and could not be regenerated, and there was no young master in the Mu Mansion, so her mother forced her father to marry her.

Lu Weiya was also angry, and gave birth to dragon and phoenix twins at once, Mu Pearl and her younger brother Mu Yangchun.

Although the mother is more expensive than the son, General Mu and the eldest lady have a deep affection, and it is impossible to spoil the concubine and kill the wife, but the eldest lady feels ashamed of the Mu Mansion, so she is on an equal footing with the second lady.

The second lady doesn't care, the two are like sisters.

"Auntie, why are you getting worse and worse?" Mu Pearl showed a trace of concern, after all, the eldest lady was really good to Mu Zhu, no worse than Mu Jiuxi.

The good thing is that the two women are equal, on the contrary, the second lady is much stricter to Mu Zhuzhu, but she is very fond of Mu Jiuxi.

"Pearl, is my sister bullying you again?" The eldest lady frowned and asked when she saw that Mu Pearl had obviously cried.

The second lady hurriedly said: "Sister, don't worry about this, Pearl doesn't have a long brain in doing things by herself, and she should be taught a lesson by Jiuxi, and she didn't apologize to Jiuxi." As he spoke, he glanced at Mu Pearl fiercely.

"Xi'er, Pearl is still young, you are a sister, you have to let her more, family and everything is prosperous." The eldest lady immediately educated Mu Jiuxi.

Mu Jiuxi nodded and said, "Mother, I know, isn't this a joke with my sister, mother, you lie down and rest." Erniang, the house is crowded, everyone should go out. ”

Mu Jiuxi really felt that the air in the room was not very good.

After the second lady said a few words, she led the people away, and after Lu'er brought the silver needle, she asked everyone to withdraw, leaving only the mother and daughter.

"Xi'er, when will you know how to heal?" The eldest lady lay down and looked at her daughter, her eyes overflowing with doting and distress.

"Mother, don't talk yet, I'll help you heal." Mu Jiuxi was shocked in her heart, because her mother was not sick at all, but poisoned.

And the poisoning is very deep, and it takes a long time, which causes the body to become more and more empty.

She put more than 20 silver needles on her mother to block the toxins that were about to invade the heart, but to expel the toxins, she needed antidotes.

The poison was colorless, and the silver needle did not turn black when it was pricked, but there was a faint, imperceptible agroaroma in the blood.

Mu Jiuxi's heart moved slightly, and he turned his head to look at the window.

I saw that the wooden cabinet by the window was lit with lotus agarwood, and the fine smoke was curling, but the faint aroma was covered by the smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Mother, do you light agarwood every day?" Mu Jiuxi asked.

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "Yes, agarwood calms the nerves, this has been ordered for more than ten years." ”

"In the beginning, did you order it yourself?"

"That's not it, I remember that I didn't sleep well at that time, so Aunt Wang said that I could order agarwood to sleep, and I would order it every night after that."

"Aunt Wang?" A dark light flashed under Mu Jiuxi's eyes.

"What's wrong? Why do you ask this? The eldest lady was puzzled.

"Mother, you're not sick, you're suffering from a chronic poison, more than ten years of toxin deposition, and it's time to break out." Mu Jiuxi's voice lowered.

"What?" The eldest lady was shocked, and her face changed greatly, "How come?" ”

"Shh Mu Jiuxi hurriedly made a silent gesture, "Mother, don't make a noise first, you can be poisoned for more than ten years, it should be the person next to you." ”

With that, she stood up softly, walked silently to the door, and suddenly opened the door.

"Miss." Aunt Wang outside almost rushed in, and when she saw Mu Jiuxi open the door, her face changed in fright.

Mu Jiuxi stared at Wang Gu, but did not speak.

Wang Gu hurriedly said: "Miss, why don't you say anything when you come out, Doctor Wu is here, and the old slave happens to report it." ”

Sure enough, the figure in the courtyard came running quickly, and Aunt Ying kept saying that the eldest lady vomited blood or something.

Mu Jiuxi sneered in his heart, but said quietly: "Aunt Wang, you go to the pharmacy to get a piece of hundred-year-old agarwood." ”

"Agarwood?" Wang Gu was stunned.

"The agarwood in my mother's room has no effect, lighting agarwood is better to calm the nerves, and the pharmacy must have it." Mu Jiuxi explained.

"Oh, the old slave will do it immediately." When Wang Gu saw the thin sweat on her forehead, she didn't dare to look at Mu Jiuxi, so she immediately took the order and left.

"Deer." Mu Jiuxi hurriedly called Lu'er over and whispered a few words in her ear.

The deer was stunned for a moment, then chased after him.

"Xi'er." The eldest lady called out from inside the room.

Mu Jiuxi hurriedly ran back, and the eldest lady said in disbelief in her eyes: "Xi'er, you, do you think that Aunt Wang poisoned me?" ”
