Chapter 383 Looking for Red Lotus Fruit
Cheng Shubai stood aside silently, but his eyes were full of worry. At the same time, he felt vaguely strange in his heart. Has the lady's medical skills advanced by such a rapid pace?
After a while, Su Xiaoxi finally pulled out the silver needle, sweat dripping from her forehead.
Seeing this, Cheng Shubai quickly handed over a clean handkerchief.
"Madam, you're exhausted, let's take a rest!"
Cheng Shubai said in a gentle tone, with doting in his tone.
Su Xiaoxi was indeed a little tired. She took the handkerchief handed over by Cheng Shubai and wiped her sweat before sitting down.
Glancing at Shen Wen who was sleeping soundly, Su Xiaoxi suddenly became confused. Why is Shen Wen's illness so serious?Logically speaking, his condition should have been cured long ago.
That night, Cheng Shubai accompanied Su Xiaoxi and stayed in Master Shen's room.
…………
The next morning, the sun shone into the room.
Cheng Shubai got up early and served a bowl of porridge to Su Xiaoxi for Su Xiaoxi to eat to replenish her strength.
After finishing the porridge, Su Xiaoxi leaned back on the chair and closed her eyes to rest. At this time, the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion hurried in and whispered a few words in Shen An's ear.
Shen An's expression suddenly changed, but he still held back when facing Su Xiaoxi.
"Miss Su, please take care of my father first. I'll be back as soon as I can!"
After saying that, Shen An left in a hurry, as if something big happened, but these things had nothing to do with him.
She checked Master Shen's condition again, but found that the medicine seemed to be more serious. It seemed that someone had drugged her medicine these days.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxi once again started acupuncture for Mr. Shen.
After the injection, Su Xiaoxi was very tired, but Master Shen's condition didn't seem to have changed much.
Su Xiaoxi was a little confused. At this time, there was a loud noise outside the door.
"What's going on outside?" Su Xiaoxi asked Cheng Shubai with a slight frown.
Cheng Shubai shook his head and said that he didn't know either. He had been waiting in the yard all night for Su Xiaoxi to wake up.
Soon, a maid rushed into the room in a panic, "Girl, it's not good."
"What happened? Tell me slowly." Su Xiaoxi asked calmly.
The maid finally calmed down and said, "Just now, I heard rumors from outside that someone from a branch of the Shen family is here."
"A branch of the Shen family?" Cheng Shubai was full of surprise when he heard this, and then looked at Su Xiaoxi.
When Su Xiaoxi heard this, she was also surprised. After all, she had known before that the associates of the Shen family wanted to harm Shen Wen, so she sent someone to bring ginseng and fed it to Shen Wen in a special way.
It seems that the man in the dark has not left Shen's mansion.
"They come with bad intentions!" Su Xiaoxi said after thinking for a moment.
When Cheng Shubai heard this, he also agreed. He had doubted that those in the Shen family would not give up.
"Madam, what we need now is to cure Mr. Shen's illness. Let Mr. Shen take care of these things." Cheng Shubai suggested.
Su Xiaoxi nodded, and the two of them did not leave. Then Su Xiaoxi personally prepared the medicine and fed it to Master Shen.
But when the medicine came into Master Shen's mouth, Master Shen didn't swallow it at all. Instead, he spit it out, and the medicine spilled on the table and floor.
Su Xiaoxi frowned deeply. Although she did not have any impression of Mr. Shen in her memory, seeing the current situation, Su Xiaoxi also guessed that Shen Wen must have been poisoned.
Unfortunately, I am not proficient in this area and cannot solve this problem.
"Madam, don't be discouraged. We will try our best to find a way to cure Mr. Shen." Cheng Shubai comforted him.
"Yes!" Su Xiaoxi nodded. She also believed that she would be able to find a solution to Shen Wen's poisoning.
…………
Three days later, Su Xiaoxi was still helping Shen Wen perform acupuncture.
"Mr. Shen's condition has gotten much better!" In the past three days, Cheng Shubai stayed with Su Xiaoxi every step of the way, not even bothering to eat.
"Is my father's illness really cured?" Shen An looked happy. He was really worried about his father, so he stayed outside Shen Wen's room.
"Well, Mr. Shen's body has recovered well, but he is still unable to move for the time being, so I suggest that Mr. Shen stay and continue to take care of him." Su Xiaoxi said seriously.
"Okay, I promised, I will take good care of daddy." Shen An agreed immediately, and naturally he would not leave.
Su Xiaoxi nodded with a smile, then looked at Shen An and said, "I want to go out. Mr. Shen's condition is temporarily stable. I need to buy some herbs."
"I'll go with you!" Shen An said hurriedly, fearing that Su Xiaoxi would be in danger if she went out alone.
"No, I can go alone." Su Xiaoxi refused, then turned and left.
After leaving the inn, Su Xiaoxi walked toward the east of the city.
What she was going to purchase was the mountain forest in the western suburbs of the city, because Su Xiaoxi remembered that she had picked up a red lotus fruit in a cave in the mountain forest, and this red lotus fruit was also a rare spiritual herb in the world, but what was its specific name? , but Su Xiaoxi forgot.
Su Xiaoxi wanted to try if she could use red lotus fruit to refine an antidote.
Su Xiaoxi was looking for the red lotus fruit along the way, but she didn't see it along the way.
In the end, Su Xiaoxi chose to go to the south of the city.
There is a small town in the south of the city. Almost all of the town is planted with red lotus flowers, and there may be red lotus fruits.
However, when Su Xiaoxi came to the town, she was a little confused.
Because none of the shops in this small town sells red lotus flowers.
Su Xiaoxi's originally excited mood suddenly fell to the bottom. Could it be that this red lotus fruit is a rare variety and does not exist?
Unwilling to give in, Su Xiaoxi wandered around again, hoping to see someone selling red lotus flowers.
However, to Su Xiaoxi's disappointment, there was no trace of Red Lotus at all in this town.
Not even an ordinary red lotus.
Finally, Su Xiaoxi came to the western suburbs of the city unwilling to give up.
The suburbs are relatively remote, so there are almost no vendors coming in and out. Occasionally, carriages drive by Su Xiaoxi.
After Su Xiaoxi inquired about it, she learned that the suburbs were filled with poor people. Because the products here were so poor, it was impossible to grow food and vegetables.
"Girl, let's go back!" The maid of the Shen Mansion was at her side to dissuade Su Xiaoxi. After all, she had heard about the Shen family in the east of the city. Now that she was in the suburbs of the west of the city, if she was caught by the Shen family, she would probably be a murderer. There is less luck.
"I have to look for it." Su Xiaoxi insisted.
"Girl, this place is desolate and you are not suitable to stay here." The maid advised, but Su Xiaoxi did not intend to change her mind and insisted on going to the mountains.
At this time, a luxurious carriage stopped. The groom jumped out of the carriage, respectfully opened the curtain and spoke to the carriage, "Second Miss, please get out of the carriage!"
Then Yi Xiangling was seen slowly stepping out of the carriage.
