Chapter 148: Peeling Back the Cocoon
On the ground, bitter almonds fell everywhere, to say the least, there were twenty-five or six catties; The light bamboo leaves were tied into bundles after bundles, about eighty or more; The raw licorice plants are tied with thin threads, and I am afraid that there will be hundreds of ties.
Others, such as ginger, coix seed, white coix seed, magnolia bark, and Fabanxia, are even more scattered.
There are so many medicinal herbs, it is really an eye-opener.
Looking at this small hill of medicinal materials, it is no wonder that sleepless at night will sigh: Chu Yan, you have emptied the medicine shop!
Chu Yan had already walked to the bedside, looked at Yunsheng for a while, smiled strangely, and said: "It's a cold winter, and all the grasses are slacking off, so it's okay to be prepared!" Besides, Yun Sheng is both the younger brother of Gongzi and my younger brother, so I naturally want to treat him well and buy him all the medicines I can buy. ”
Sleepless at night and rolling his eyes.
He took out two large pieces of silver from his bosom, adding up to fifty or sixty taels, and threw them to her, saying, "The money I just gave you to buy medicine must not be enough, and these are made up for you." ”
Chu Yan returned the money to him and said, "Childe, unless it's the money you give me to sing a song, I don't want it." ”
When it comes to receiving and accepting from others, sleepless nights are not good at it.
Seeing that Chu Yan refused to ask for this money, he was not reluctant for the time being. Just thought: "With so many medicinal herbs, Yun Sheng will definitely not be able to eat them all, so I will leave enough for him for the next seven days, as well as the amount to prevent recurrence, and the rest will be transferred to Dr. Gong Xin." ”
Gong Xin is a doctor, and he is still familiar with Chu Yan, and giving him the extra medicine is not only used in practice, but also indirectly transferring the favor given by Chu Yan to Gong Xin, so as not to let himself owe.
"It's the hardest thing to be graced by a beauty."
Sleepless thinking secretly, he quietly drew a line with Chu Yan in his heart, striving not to receive a cent from her, so as not to repay it in the future, and it would be difficult to pay it off when he was idle.
But as if he had guessed what Ye Sleepless was thinking, although Chu Yan didn't say it on his face, what he actually did in the next few days made Ye Sleepless feel more and more that the negotiation was deeper and more difficult.
Not only did she scramble to boil medicine for Yun Sheng, but she also deliberately kept Gong Xin in the inn, asking him to check Yun Sheng's pulse every day, review it, and give some suggestions for recuperation.
When he was sleepless at night, Chu Yan would smile and say, "Childe, since Yunsheng is your brother, he is also my brother." I've said this many times! ”
After learning more about Yun Sheng's life experience, she was even more indignant.
"Those thieves and men are just killing each other, it's too cheap for them! If the religion falls into my hands, hum! ”
Sleepless at night: "How are you staying?" ”
Chu Yan lowered his slender and slender body and stood next to Sleepless Night, with great willingness to succumb to Sleepless Night.
"I'll leave it to Childe."
Sleepless Nights: "......"
Laughing and laughing, Chu Yan may think of some details that have been ignored by Sleepless Night.
She asked, "Childe, is the gloomy poisonous gas in Yun Sheng's younger brother's body caused by the fainting and numbing medicine that those men and women gave him?" ”
Sleepless Nights have also investigated this reason, and believe that there are two possibilities.
What Chu Yan said was one possibility, and the poisonous gas produced by the gold ingots in Guan Gong's hand was the second possibility.
Chu Yan shook his head and said, "I think Guan Gong's gold ingots should not be the source of illness. Do you still remember that day Dr. Gong said that he had received the son of a woman who had returned from Wugong Mountain and lived in Pingxiang City, and that child had similar poisonous gas in his body? ”
Sleepless nodded and said, "Not bad." Dr. Gong said it, but I didn't think about it at the time. Now that I think about it, it's very negligent! ”
Chu Yan smiled and defended him unhurriedly: "Childe was concerned about Yunsheng's younger brother at that time, and he had no distractions, so naturally it was rare to think about anything else, which is also human nature. ”
A gentle sentence made the sleepless night reduce the internal friction in the heart a lot.
The sense of relaxation she creates is comforting.
"Childe, the woman's child was poisoned at the foot of Wugong Mountain, and Yunsheng was poisoned in Changsha. Changsha and Wugong Mountain are hundreds of miles apart, and the poison suffered by the two children is the same kind. If it is speculated that it is the poison of Guan Gongjin's ingots, it is difficult to have evidence; If it is speculated that the poison was used by the group of men and women, it may still be possible. ”
Chu Yan said eloquently, sleepless nights also have Huigen, and after a little deep thought, she understood her train of thought.
"You mean to say that Guan Gong is dead, and the poison of its gold ingots is difficult to move and spread; And that group of men and women are alive, they move around, abducting, looting and selling children, in order to prevent children from crying, they use poison to stun them, and this is why there will be victims of the same kind of poison in Jiangxi and Hunan? ”
Chu Yan smiled and bowed his head.
She is full of pearls and greenery, Qiluo is on her body, her temples are beautiful, and her face is really like a begonia spring sleep when she stretches out, which is beautiful.
It's just that I can't sleep at night because I think about the cause of Yunsheng's illness, but I don't have the heart to appreciate it.
was plucked by Chu Yan's words, his eyes flashed with a clear light, and after the epiphany, he didn't wait for Chu Yan to say, but drew inferences.
"Yunsheng was poisoned, and the woman's children were also poisoned, and they were all sold as goods by the men and women. Halfway, due to my intervention, Yunsheng avoided the fate of being sold to others, but the woman's child may not have been sold. ”
After all, not all abducted children are as lucky as Yunsheng to encounter sleepless nights.
Chu Yan thought for a while and said, "Childe, there may be another possibility." The child may not have been the woman's child in the first place, but was sold to the woman through the man and woman. ”
In this way, a closed loop of logic is formed.
The thieves and men snatched the children, turned them over with medicated hemp and sold them to the women. Due to an overdose, toxins are left in the body, causing the child to be weak. Subsequently, the woman took the child to seek medical treatment from Gong Xin. Due to the unique nature of the toxin, Gong Xin paid special attention to it, and found the same toxin when treating Yunsheng.
Sleepless looked at Chu Yan, impressed by his ingenuity, and praised: "Earlier, you said that I was thoughtful. My meticulousness is only in small places, and the left and right are only clever. Miss Chu, you are the great wisdom. ”
was seriously praised by Sleepless Night, Chu Yan's cheeks were slightly red.
turned to grin and said, "Childe, don't be arrogant, it's just the difference in thinking between men and women." By the way, if you don't dislike it, you can call me Yan'er, or call me by the nickname 'curling'. Of course, the woman is fifteen years old and Xuan, and the smoke already has a table word, the word Zitian. If Childe thinks it's okay to pronounce this word, you can call me Zitian. ”
Sleepless at night, it was rare to smile sincerely at her: "Yan'er is too intimate, curling and doting, and Zitian is too old." I'll still call you Miss Chu. ”
"Anyway, it all depends on what the son calls him. In the future, if the son is more intimate with me, or is willing to spoil me, it is not too late to change his words. ”
Chu Yan didn't seem to care about this, and let him go sleepless at night.
Returning to the previous topic, Sleepless sighed leisurely: "Ever since I took in and took care of Yunsheng, I have been thinking about what kind of sect and sect those men and women are. I didn't think about it before, but it wasn't until today that you peeled off the cocoon, and I probably had an eyebrow! ”
