The unscrupulous drug dealer picked up the herbs, pretended to examine them, and sniffed them. A surge of joy filled his heart, knowing this was a great opportunity to make money. A glimmer of greed flashed in his eyes. His lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile, and he began to bargain with Wei Ersao.
The two of them exchanged blows, and after a fierce confrontation, Wei Ersao finally sold the medicinal herbs to him at a high price.
Seeing that it was profitable, the unscrupulous drug dealer immediately sold the herbs to the villagers, and boasted that the herbs had magical effects and could cure all diseases, and he spoke in exaggerated terms.
The villagers believed it and paid money to buy it.
However, not long after, news spread in the village that someone had vomiting and diarrhea after taking this medicinal herb.
An old man became seriously ill after taking this medicinal herb. He lay on the bed groaning in pain, his face as pale as paper and his forehead covered with beads of sweat.
The family was extremely anxious and paced back and forth in the house. Finally, they rushed to the Wei family to complain.
"How could your Wei family sell something so harmful!" The old man's son, his face filled with rage, stood in the Wei family's yard and shouted, his hands clenched into fists, his body trembling slightly with anger. "My father took this herb and is almost dying!"
When Wei Ersao learned about this, she was shocked and her face turned pale in an instant, like a piece of white paper. Her legs began to go weak and she almost couldn't stand.
She knew she had caused a big disaster and felt extremely regretful.
She hurriedly found Su Huaiyue. As soon as she saw Su Huaiyue, tears welled up in her eyes and rolled down like beads from a broken string. She cried, "Sister-in-law, I'm in trouble. Someone ate that medicinal herb and is now vomiting and having diarrhea. What should I do?"
When Su Huaiyue heard this, she was also shocked, but she quickly calmed down, her eyes revealing determination and calmness.
She knew that now was not the time to scold, so she quickly stepped forward and said, "Don't panic, let's go and see what's going on."
Su Huaiyue and Wei Ersao hurried to the village, their steps quick and raising dust all the way.
As I walked into the old man’s house, a depressing atmosphere hit me.
Su Huaiyue saw the old man lying weakly on the bed, his face pale and bloodless, and felt heartbroken.
She immediately stepped forward to diagnose his pulse. Her fingers rested lightly on the old man's wrist, her brows slightly furrowed, and she concentrated on feeling the changes in his pulse.
After a moment, she said solemnly, "The old man's stomach and intestines were strongly stimulated after taking that medicinal herb, which caused him to vomit and have diarrhea."
Su Huaiyue quickly took out some antidiarrheal and gastrointestinal conditioning medicine from her medicine box. Her movements were quick and skillful, and every move was professional.
She helped the old man up and said softly, "Old man, drink the medicine. You will get better after drinking it."
Her voice is soft and warm, like the warm sunshine in spring, which makes people feel at ease.
Under Su Huaiyue's careful care, the old man slowly took the medicine.
After Su Huaiyue's treatment, the old man's condition gradually improved.
His face gradually regained some color and was no longer as pale as before.
Su Huaiyue also reminded the old man's family to pay attention to diet to avoid similar situations from happening again.
"Just give the old man some light and easily digestible food recently, such as millet porridge, soft noodles, etc., and never eat anything irritating." Su Huaiyue said patiently, her eyes full of concern, "If you have any questions, feel free to come to the Wei family to find me."
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for saving the people. The system rewards 50 manual beauty devices!]
The cold sound of machinery was heard, but Su Huaiyue was still happy when she heard about the reward.
Manual beauty devices are very rare in this place.
Although Youzhou is remote, there are many nobles there, and the easiest thing to make money from is their money.
Su Huaiyue already had some ideas in her mind. This system reward was really timely!
After dealing with this matter, Su Huaiyue and Wei Ersao returned to Wei's house.
This matter caused a lot of uproar. When Mrs. Wei learned about it, she was furious. She walked quickly to the yard with her crutches, and looked at Wei Ersao sternly.
"How could you be so foolish, child?" Madam Wei's voice trembled slightly with anger, and she pounded the ground with her cane. "Fortunately, Huaiyue helped us, otherwise our Wei family would be in trouble."
Mrs. Wei Ersao was scolded so much by Madam Wei that she dared not look up. She lowered her head, her face full of shame, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Her shoulders trembled slightly, and her heart was filled with regret.
She knew that she had done something wrong this time, so she took the initiative to apologize to Su Huaiyue, her voice tearful: "Sister-in-law, I was wrong. Fortunately, I had your help, otherwise I really don't know what to do."
Su Huaiyue looked at Wei Ersao, feeling somewhat helpless, but still said earnestly: "Second sister-in-law, you should be more cautious in the future and not be so impulsive. Our Wei family can't afford such a toss."
Wei Ersao nodded, tears still welling in her eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Sister-in-law, I'll remember. I will definitely change in the future."
Madam Wei also sighed deeply: "The women in our Wei family are also pitiful. Several wives have lost their husbands. We are the only ones who can support each other. Nifeng, I know that you are not a bad child at heart. You must repent sincerely in the future. Without you, how can this be called the Wei family?"
Wei Ersao's nose felt sore. She had been married to the Wei family for so many years, and she was just feeling unbalanced, but she had never thought of causing any trouble for the Wei family.
It's all because she was too eager for quick success.
"It's just that we can't convince the public if we don't punish you for this matter. So I will make you kneel in the front hall for a day and not allow you to eat. Then reflect on your mistakes in front of the rankings of the Wei family's ancestors." Old Lady Wei sighed secretly. She knew that Wei's second sister-in-law was a good-for-nothing, but she was still a member of the Wei family. It would be best to see her reform.
I hope this incident will teach her a lesson.
Wei Ersao went to the front hall to kneel as punishment, and then everyone went back to their rooms.
After thinking for a while, Su Huaiyue walked into the small kitchen.
Wei Zhi and Wei Li followed behind her. Wei Li's little head looked at Su Huaiyue walking into the kitchen in surprise, and was very puzzled. "Mom, what are you doing in the kitchen? Didn't we just finish dinner?"
Su Huaiyue patted their heads and said, "You two should go back and rest first. Mother has something else to do and will be back soon."
"Mom, are you going to make something delicious? I want to eat it too." Wei Li blinked his eyes and looked at Su Huaiyue very cutely, which made her heart soften and unable to refuse.
"Okay, then you two sit here and wait for a while. Mother will call you when she's done."
There happened to be two small benches outside the small kitchen, and the two little ones sat on them obediently waiting for Su Huaiyue.
Su Huaiyue was busy in the kitchen, and the fragrance slowly drifted out, which made the two little ones unable to sit still. They quietly peeked inside through the crack in the door.
