Chapter 31: The Covenant of the Three Copper Plates
"Back to my mother, the doctor said that my mother's body has lost some vitality, so I have slept for a long time recently, and today my daughter is reckless, and she shouldn't go to the thrifty hall to cause trouble for her mother." Xie said lightly but knelt down, this was the only way for her to beg for mercy, otherwise, this big lady wanted to pinch her to death at this moment like pinching an ant to death.
"It's good that you know, don't be so reckless in the future, go back and copy the female commandments five times, learn the women's virtues in it, and bring it to your mother another day."
"Recently, the peony of my Mingyu Pavilion has not been pruned for a while, you accompany your mother to prune it." Saying that, Ruan Mingyu glanced out the door at the peony that was blooming, and when she raised her foot, Lan Qian put on Ruan Mingyu's shoes.
Picked up a pair of scissors on the table at random, and was about to take Xie Qingyu out into the yard together.
Xie Qingyu knelt for nearly two hours just now, and his legs were a little disobedient, and it took a lot of effort to get up.
I knew that I would definitely have to suffer a lot this time, and I was already good if I didn't get beaten.
At this time, the two came to the outside of the hospital again, and it was already afternoon outside the hospital at this moment, and it was not so hot.
"You see, my mother hasn't pruned these days, and some of the green leaves have actually popped up and covered the peonies, right?" Ruan Mingyu opened his mouth as if he was inadvertent, and his face was still smiling, but his eyes were full of warnings.
Xie Qingyu naturally knew what the eldest lady was talking about, and he was afraid that he thought that he went to the lobby today to see Yun Jinyu.
Ruan Mingyu saw that Xie Qingyu did not answer, and smiled with a smile on his face, as if he had something to say.
"Light rumor, when you encounter this kind of leaf, you have to lose it immediately, otherwise this peony will be blocked."
"Mother, that's right." Xie Qingyu naturally understood Ruan Mingyu's words, this was to warn himself that his concubines were different, so that he could be more measured in the future, thinking of this, Xie Qingyu also followed Ruan Mingyu's words.
"You cut it, mother, take a look." Saying that, Ruan Mingyu handed the scissors in his hand to Xie Qingyu and waited for her to do it herself.
Xie Qingyu didn't know how to prune, so he could only learn from Ruan Mingyu's appearance and cut the green leaves.
Ruan Mingyu saw Xie Qing's rumors like this, and thought to herself that this girl was transparent and understood what she meant.
"Good job, you can prune all the flowers in this yard, and go back when you're done." Saying that, Ruan Mingyu entered the house, leaving only this Xie Qingyu outside the courtyard.
This Ruan Mingyu was already afraid of heat, and he couldn't stand it after staying outside for a while.
Although the weather this afternoon is not so hot, it is enough for Xie Qingyu to bear, Xie Qingyu thought to himself, this eldest lady, on the surface, is amiable, but it is a soft knife that generally does not hit you, and it will make you suffer.
Xie Qingyu was in this courtyard again, pruning the flowers and grass for another hour, until the sun completely set.
Just as Xie Qingyu was about to leave, Lan Xi came out of the house.
"Miss, Madame said that this is all for today, but don't forget to copy the female commandments and send them over within three days." Lan Qian glanced at Xie Qingyu contemptuously, and after saying this, she entered the house without waiting for Xie Qingyu's answer.
Then Xie Qingyu dragged his heavy steps back to the Magnolia Garden, and it was not very easy to walk after standing for so long.
When Xie Qingyu returned to the Yulan Garden, it was already the end of the moon, Xie Qingyu's heart was really aggrieved, why were the other traversers rich and powerful, she still had to survive in this Xie Mansion, look at this face, look at which face.
And my mother was poisoned for no reason, and it was really too dangerous in this house.
This strengthened Xie Qingyu's determination to leave Xie Mansion, and after curing his mother's illness, he must leave this cannibal compound.
Xie Qingyu couldn't sleep this night, she was very worried, what kind of poison was in this mother, she got up early in the morning and drilled the dog hole out of Xie's mansion.
Because they had agreed before, if there was a difference in their condition, they would meet in this Yi'anju teahouse the next day, and they would talk about it in detail when the time came.
Yi'anju has just opened at the moment, and there is no one yet, and the guys in the store are cleaning the tables and chairs, waiting for those customers to come.
The shopkeeper naturally recognized this Xie Qingyu, and when he saw Xie Qingyu coming, he immediately beckoned Xie Qingyu to wait in the private room upstairs.
Xie Qingyu sat in a position just to see the gate of this easy to live in, a morning passed, but Pei Yu and Yun Jinyu did not come, and the literati below went in and out.
It's just that today's literati seem to be saying one thing, which has attracted the attention of Xie Qingyu.
"Have you heard, there seems to be an abnormality in this Miao people in southern Xinjiang recently."
"Yes, the emperor has also sent a lot of ministers south recently."
"I don't know if those Miao people have already mixed in with Dayan."
Southern Xinjiang? Hmong? Xie Qingyu also felt a little strange when she heard this, but at the moment she was all focused on her mother, and she didn't have the heart to care about such things.
I haven't seen Pei Yu and Yun Jinyu all the time, and Xie Qingyu is already a little anxious.
Just thinking about it, the three familiar figures were belated.
After a few moments, the door to the private room was pushed open.
"Miss Xie, it's me who is too late to wait, so I've kept you waiting." The first to speak was Jiang Ziyang, and he was the only one among the three who was a professional doctor.
Today's Jiang Ziyang is still wearing a plain light-colored robe, which is very elegant, but the unique medicinal fragrance on his body can't be hidden.
"It's okay, Doctor Jiang, tell me what disease my mother has, no, what kind of poison did she have?" Xie Qingyu was anxious after waiting for so long, and her voice was already faintly crying, if she lost her mother, then she really had no relatives here.
"Miss Xie, the poison in your mother's relatives should be the strange poison beauty drunk in southern Xinjiang, this is a person who is drunk by a beauty, this poison is extremely toxic, generally only manifested as physical weakness and fatigue, but in the later stage, it can make people sleep for a long time, and in the long run, this person will die in this sleep, and the general doctor diagnoses it as just a weak body."
"I checked the pulse that day, and found that the time of this poison in your mother is not short, but it has never been so bad before, the injury on your mother's back last time, it is estimated that it hurt the vitality, and the poison began to spread, I also see that you feed your mother and indeed eat a lot of tonics, but the effect of these drugs is minimal, if you don't take the antidote in time, the beauty drunk will make your mother sleep like this." Although Jiang Ziyang was a little unbearable, he still said it truthfully, this beauty has not appeared for many years when she is drunk, but she didn't expect that this time it was on Aunt Xiefu.
"Divine Doctor Jiang, you tell me this antidote, and I'll go to the clinic to get the medicine." Xie Qingyu only cares about this one thing at the moment, detoxification, although she already knows that this is a beauty drunk, but after talking about it for a long time, she still hasn't talked about the method of detoxification.
"Miss Xie, there is no antidote to this beauty's drunkenness." Doctor Jiang's words directly sentenced Liu Yuehan to death.
No solution? How can there be no solution, as long as it is poison, there is an antidote, how can it be, how can it be like this!
Xie Qingyu's heart sank even more, he thought it was a flesh wound, how did he know that he would be poisoned? And there is no antidote to this poison.
Thinking about it, two lines of clear tears flowed down his eyes.
"Miss Xie, don't worry, I'll give you a prescription first, according to this, I can help your mother save this life first, but this poison, I know a way, but no one has ever tried it, and it is also an extremely risky method, and whether it can be detoxified is still unknown."
Xie Qingyu heard this as if he saw hope, and grabbed Dr. Jiang's long sleeve and said.
"Please, please save my mother, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will try." Xie Qingyu seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw at this moment, and his tone was full of firmness.
"Miss Xie, this medicine is a little difficult to find, it is estimated that you will not be able to find it for a while, this method first requires three flavors of strange medicine, the first taste is the Western Regions Holy Medicine Hundred Jade Luolan, and the second flavor is the Extreme Cold Ice Lotus."
Xie Qingyu was a little blindsided when she heard the first two medicines, she had never heard of them, were these medicines really effective?
Moreover, in modern times, it is mostly the life-sustaining and qi-replenishing holy medicine such as Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, which I have never heard of in any jade Luolan.
"This last flavor is the Void Spirit Ginseng that grows on the coast of the East China Sea, but if these strange medicines want to be used in medicine, they need to be added to the medicine, and these medicine introductions are also very precious in ordinary medical halls, and they are all very valuable."
Xie Qingyu thought for a while and then spoke.
"Divine Doctor Jiang, how can you get these medicinal herbs?"
No matter what the price is, she has to find these medicinal herbs and cure her mother's illness.
"In this way, Miss Xie San, there is no hurry to find medicine for the time being, the toxicity of this beauty's drunkenness is chronic poison, and your mother will be fine for a while, but this Void Spirit Ginseng and this medicine lead, I happen to know that there is a person in Jiangning City who has this thing." Jiang Zhiyang's eyes turned to Pei Yu.
Xie Qingyu also looked at Jiang Zhiyang's eyes, it turned out to be Pei Yu.
It's just how can Pei Yu hand over such precious things to her? She looked at Pei Yu with a puzzled expression.
Pei Yu picked up a cup of tea on the table with an indifferent face at the moment and drank it.
Xie Qingyu thought about it for a while, and walked towards Pei Yu.
"Can Pei Gongzi cut his love and give me this void spirit ginseng?" Xie Qingyu knew that Jiang Zhiyang was Pei Yu's person, but this Pei Yu didn't know what he wanted.
"Miss Xie, I can give it to Miss in the future, but I don't know what Miss Xie wants to exchange for." Pei Yu's eyes stared straight at Xie Qingyu, and his long and narrow eyes were also flashing
Xie Qingyu thought about it for a while, and looked around, she was very poor, and she almost didn't have a valuable object.
"Pei Gongzi wants to come to you and see it, I am struggling in Xie Mansion, and I have no more than a few taels of silver, and I can't take out anything valuable at the moment, it just so happens that today I have three copper plates left over from buying medicine for my mother a few days ago in my money bag, if I hand over these three copper plates to Gongzi, this copper plate is a requirement, if he has something to do in the future, the light rumor must be to go to the soup and die."
She can only get her hands on this kind of promise now, and as she spoke, she took out three copper plates from her waist and handed them to Pei Yu.
