Chapter 50: The Origin of the Family Snake
All the officials laughed, "This kid is very lively."
Shopkeeper Diao also came in.
When she found Li Hanyao's room, her heart hung up, and she muttered silently: "Sister, are you hiding?" Don't hide in a box. Go out first, and when they're done, you'll come in......"
She didn't know how Wang Yan got in, thinking that since he could come in silently, he must have the ability to hide out silently.
The officials searched it out, but found nothing.
Li Hanyao breathed a sigh of relief and felt that her body was drenched with sweat. Then, she thought strangely: It's only been a while, where is the young lady hiding?
She was restless again, and followed those officials step by step.
When I got to the backyard, I saw a servant struck a bush of gardenia trees by the pond that was unusually luxuriant, trimmed into a large round shape.
Li Hanyao's eyes slipped, and she found that the gardenia was facing the back window of the upper room, and the lightning flashed in her mind, and her heart rose to her throat again.
The servant knocked twice, found nothing, and turned away.
Li Hanyao was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, when she saw the shopkeeper walking towards the gardenia.
What does this black-hearted thief want to do?
Li Hanyao hurriedly walked over.
The gardenia has passed its flowering period and is full of green.
The shopkeeper felt that this flower bush was inevitably too big, and it was not a problem for two people to nest inside, but the official was too perfunctory, and he only used a scabbard to beat it a few times. He was not at ease, so he stepped forward and bent down and reached out to pick up the flower branches.
Li Hanyao's hand shook and threw out a small snake from his sleeve.
"Snakeβ" she screamed.
The shopkeeper was shocked by her, and glared back at her dissatisfied, but saw her pointing at herself, jumping on her feet and shouting "Snake!" Snake! β
The shopkeeper sighed in his heart and hurriedly lowered his head.
In the middle of summer, the weather was very hot, he wore a pair of cloth shoes, and did not wear socks, he felt that something cool and silky slipped on the instep, and when he thought of the reaction of the little guy in front of him, he shivered, and when he saw the gray snake, he raised his foot and stepped on it.
This is a knee-jerk counterattack.
Li Hanyao almost applauded-
Well stomped!
"Whew-"
The shopkeeper jumped to his feet and screamed.
The snake bit him and slipped away.
Li Hanyao hurriedly said: "It's amazing! The snake bitten. I saw the serpent come out of the bushes. The shopkeeper didn't pay attention to ......"
Everyone hurried over, and saw beads of sweat rolling down on the head of the shopkeeper, as if he had a toxic attack and would die soon.
Human life is at stake, Pan Yue urgently asked two people to send Diao's shopkeeper to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment, but he was afraid that he would be too late to save him; asked Li Hanyao again, where did the snake come from, where did it go, and why did it bite the shopkeeper?
Li Hanyao told him at 1510 that the shopkeeper Diao opened the gardenia bush to check, and the snake came out and bit his foot.
The official before said, "Didn't I check, what else did I see?" β
Pan Yue sneered: "It's not that I don't worry about you. After that, he spat on the ground fiercely and said, "Damn, it's really unlucky!" If he dies, he will still be harmed by me. β
These officials came to search at home, and Li Zhuohang was not worried about finding the murderer, nor was he afraid that someone would break things, but that his daughter would be hit. Although Li Hanyao is now pretending to be a small servant, she doesn't recognize people when she is a bad official. He sent the official errand away, and was about to turn his head and warn Li Hanyao not to walk around, but in a blink of an eye, Li Hanyao rushed to the backyard, and he also hurried over.
As soon as I entered the backyard, I found that something big had happened.
The shopkeeper Diao has been sent to the hospital.
After asking about the situation, Li Zhuohang was only puzzled for a moment, and then concluded that this matter had nothing to do with his daughter. Because pockmarks gave birth to a nest of snake eggs last year and hatched a nest of baby snakes, they were all left by Li Hanyao to raise. Those little snakes are non-venomous. And Diao's shopkeeper was poisoned, so it can be seen that it was not his daughter's pet who caused the accident.
Li Hanyao saw him coming, and hurriedly asked him: "Master, our family didn't find the murderer, but that person was bitten by a snake, will he rely on us?" β
Li Zhuohang said: "It's not a snake we raised, what are you afraid of!" β
The official said, "I knocked for a while, but the snake didn't come out; As soon as I was gone, as soon as he came, the snake came out and bit him. Is it to blame? β
Pan Yue said in disgust: "Who made him troublesome!" This is retribution. β
Li Hanyao urged Li Zhuohang vigorously, asking him to send someone to see if the shopkeeper Diao was dead, and beckoned all the officials to go to the front to drink white fungus mung bean soup.
After a while, everyone ended the search, and Hulala went back to the front, discussing the life and death of the shopkeeper as they walked.
Li Hanyao walked last, looked back at the courtyard, and asked: Sister, where are you hiding? Why doesn't it seem to be in the gardenias.
At the front, when everyone drank mung bean soup to relieve the heat, the person who went to the hospital to inquire about the news came back, saying that the shopkeeper Diao was unconscious, and he had less air in and more out of air.
Li Hanyao opened her mouth after hearing this, and her face was stunned - is she really poisoned? Where is the little pockmarked poisonous? She hid it in her sleeve every day, and she didn't get a little poison, why did she bite the shopkeeper and get poisoned?
It's weird!
She didn't know, but the reasons for this were complicated.
The shopkeeper Diao trampled on the root of Young Master Liu's life because he sold the peach girl, and the peach girl was sent by him, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy, one of them. Second, the shopkeeper Diao ran in a hurry under the poisonous sun just now, and he was already running with chest tightness and shortness of breath, and was bitten by a snake again, and thought it was a poisonous snake. Third, the shopkeeper Diao was sent to the hospital, and the doctor in the hall was not there, so he went to the government office to treat the root of Young Master Liu's life. There is only one elementary school apprentice left in the museum, who is half-baked and has medical skills, and he can't even get the pulse inaccurate. He didn't dare to treat people, but as soon as he heard that the shopkeeper Diao had been bitten by a poisonous snake, and saw that the patient's face was pale, and the situation was very urgent, he wanted to give the patient the antidote pill made by the master first, and then cleaned the wound and applied the antidote for the shopkeeper.
To sum up, the shopkeeper Diao only suffered from heat stroke, and this delay, and he did not prescribe the right medicine, and also used the wrong medicine, which delayed the condition, so that it became more and more serious and fell into a coma, only inlet air, no breath.
Li Hanyao couldn't figure it out, so she didn't think about it for the time being, and only asked Pan Yue if the shopkeeper Diao died, would it affect her master.
Pan Yue said no, this incident was an accident, how could he blame others.
Li Hanyao was still afraid that Governor Liu would anger the Li family.
Li Zhuohang always felt that something was wrong with her daughter today, jumping up and down. It's a bit inappropriate to say this, but Li Hanyao's style of running in and out, asking this and that, is indeed a bit abnormal, which is not in line with Li Zhuohang's consistent teaching to her.
However, Li Zhuohang quickly figured it out: her daughter has always been studious, and today's incident happened suddenly, of course she has to learn to deal with and deal with it. These experiences are rare to meet girls raised in the boudoir, otherwise why would she become a little girl.
Seeing Pan Yue and the others away, Li Hanyao sighed and said, "It's okay to leave." When I looked, there must have been a mess in the house. As he spoke, he turned around and ran inside, seeing if the young lady had come back, she was really relieved.
