Pei Weixuan's appearance was really scary.
Wen's face turned pale with worry.
Xu Qinyu's heart was also hanging in the air, and she was very worried.
The lines became deeper and deeper, as if twisting in the blood vessels. The entire black lines were twisting. Beads of sweat the size of beans dripped from his forehead, and his face turned frighteningly pale.
You can tell how painful it is just by looking at it. It's probably the pain of having bones gouged out.
Pei Weixuan didn't say a word.
Wen's eyes were red, and she tried to call out twice, "Xuan Ge'er?"
He seemed to be unable to hear the sounds around him and kept his head down and eyes closed.
This situation lasted for about two quarters of an hour. Pei Weixuan slowly raised his head and opened his eyes. The coldness of the past was gone in his eyes, as if they had no human emotions, but were ice-cold. Even in the eyes of the little white snake and the little black panther, Xu Qinyu could still see their innocence. There were emotions in the eyes of bigger beasts, but these eyes had none at all. It reminded her of when she was still in the inn owned by Manager Zhou in Raozhou City. She went to check if he was breathing, and he suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed her wrist. He had that look in his eyes at that time. She thought she had seen it wrong, but it turned out not to be the case.
Mrs. Wen also noticed that there was no emotion in her son's eyes, and her hands were shaking with fear.
Pei Weixuan glanced at them expressionlessly, but did not make any other movements. He slowly closed his eyes again.
Another quarter of an hour passed, and the black in his veins finally dissipated, returning to blue. He slowly woke up, his eyes clearing up again. Noticing that Wen and Yu Niang's faces were a little pale, he said, "Did I scare you?"
"Brother Xuan, are you okay?" Wen's voice was a little choked.
She had already lost one son and didn't want to lose another.
"Don't worry, mom, everything is fine."
His voice sounded a little hoarse.
Xu Qinyu patted her chest and said, "Fourth brother, your blood vessels, your meridians, all turned black just now. Mother and I were a little scared. I'm glad you're okay, fourth brother. Is the poison gone?"
Pei Weixuan paused and said, "It will take three more times, with a seven-day cycle. It needs to happen during a period of heavy snow. Within a month, the remaining toxins in the body can be completely eliminated."
After hearing this, Xu Qinyu felt that this method of curing poison was too scary.
Modern medicine is still better. Both Chinese and Western medicine are very powerful.
However, even with modern medical treatment, some poisonings, such as some pesticides, are irreversible.
So you must cherish your life!
She only has one life, and no matter what situation she is in, she will not give up her life.
Pei Weixuan finished speaking and looked at Xu Qinyu.
Xu Qinyu blinked.
Pei Weixuan said helplessly: "Yu Niang, I'm coming out."
Xu Qinyu suddenly realized that he was only wearing a pair of wet pants. She touched her nose and said, "Fourth brother, I'll go out first."
Wen also followed him out. Pei Weixuan stood up. He had a narrow waist and long legs. Although he was thin, his skin texture was full of strength. He casually grabbed the cloth towel next to him and wiped off the medicinal juice on his body. He also took the medicinal bath out of the bathtub and poured it out. He boiled a pot of water again to wash off the smell of medicine on his body before going to bed.
…
Xu Qinyu did not sleep well at night. She had never kept a small snake as a pet. After raising it for a few days, she thought the little snake was quite cute. That night she had a dream. She dreamed that the little white snake had grown up. It was indeed three or four meters long, and it looked very scary. The scales all over its body were jade-colored, and its tongue was pink. Although its snake eyes were dark red, its facial features were delicate. She fed it so much that it became very fat, with a body as fat as an adult. This big fat snake had to act coquettishly with her when it went to bed at night, and wanted to sleep in the same bed with her. It also pressed on her and almost crushed her to death.
Xu Qinyu was still a little dazed when she woke up in the morning.
Maybe I slept too upright last night with my hands on my chest, which caused chest tightness and heaviness, and led to that nightmare.
Xu Qinyu put on her clothes, got out of bed, and went to the kitchen.
She had just entered the kitchen and lit the stove when Pei Weixuan also came in. Seeing that there was no water in the water tank and there was some scale in it, he moved the water tank outside and cleaned it, then moved it back to the kitchen and filled it with water before coming to the stove to help watch the fire.
Xu Qinyu was a little curious about how her fourth brother knew medicine. Seeing how painful it was for him to remove the remaining poison, she was probably in even greater pain when he was poisoned before.
She was so curious that she naturally asked, "Fourth brother, how do you know medicine?"
Pei Weixuan glanced at her and didn't hide anything. He slowly said, "When I was a child, I knew an old eunuch in the cold palace. He taught me."
Not only medical skills, but also martial arts were taught by the old eunuch. However, at the end of the teaching, the old eunuch said that he had taught him everything he knew, and if he didn't know something, he gave him many rare copies of medical and martial arts books, and he started to learn on his own.
He met the old eunuch in a cold palace.
He was only two years old at that time and had not yet been poisoned by Concubine Fu. He had never liked to be close to others since he was a child. He always liked to avoid the palace maids who took care of him and wander around the palace by himself, looking for a quiet place to stay.
The quietest place in the palace is the cold palace, and the quietest and most secluded cold palace is the north of the palace. The cold palace is even called the north. It is a dilapidated courtyard. He walked over, hid in the courtyard and climbed up the wall to bask in the sun. There lived an old concubine in the cold palace. Her hair was a little gray, and she was served by only an old eunuch.
He and the old eunuch and the old concubine did not disturb each other. When they occasionally ran into each other, they would stay in the yard to bask in the sun, while he would continue to lie on the wall.
Later, his father discovered that he was very smart and could learn things quickly, so he started to learn at the age of two and was taught by the Grand Tutor.
He was only two years old and had no idea what this meant.
It means that some people are afraid that he is so smart and will become the crown prince when he grows up, so they will naturally get rid of him as soon as possible.
So someone attacked him. At first, they wanted to kill him directly. They strangled him when he was sleeping in the middle of the night. There was a dagger under his pillow. Such a small child struggled to pull out the dagger and cut the man. The man's strength in his hand loosened due to the injury, and he was able to speak and save his life.
The person who wanted to strangle him was a young eunuch in his palace. He was later found to have jumped into a well. Even though his father was furious and investigated all night, he found nothing.
But after this incident, my father added guards to his palace, and even though he didn't find anything, he continued to investigate without stopping.
The person behind the scenes was probably afraid that if he continued to take action, the emperor would find out, so he stopped making any moves.
After this incident, he became more silent, but perhaps because he was frightened by the incident, his health began to deteriorate. He became sick and listless, and often secretly ran to the cold palace to stay.
Another two years passed, and one day the old eunuch could no longer bear it and called him over, saying that he was poisoned and if he was not taken care of, he would be half-crippled if not dead.
Later, the old eunuch began to teach him medical skills and help him detoxify his body. He also said that his poison was very troublesome. This kind of poison had to be administered continuously for a year and was difficult to obtain. After the poisoning was completed, even if the patient did not die, his body would collapse. He also said that the poison was difficult to detoxify and it would take many years to do it slowly.
He also asked him to hide his shortcomings, saying that in this palace, even his princes had to live with their heads down.
The old eunuch began to teach him medical skills, martial arts, and help him detoxify his body.
He also gradually listened to the old eunuch's advice and hid his incompetence in front of others.
He became a slow learner and his knowledge became mediocre. His father must have been disappointed. In addition, there was poison in his body, and his health became worse and worse. He became thin and pale. His health was too poor. His father did not ask him to have great talents. He probably just wanted him to be healthy. He did so. Later, he even stopped going to the imperial study.
Perhaps the people who were behind the scenes trying to harm him saw that he was sick and weak and would not live long, and his knowledge was mediocre, so they thought he was no longer a threat and stopped paying attention to him.
Later, the old eunuch taught him everything he knew, and found rare copies of the things he didn't know so that he could learn them on his own.
He still stayed in the cold palace every day.
At this point, his story was almost clear, but seeing Yu Niang looking at him eagerly, with an unsatisfied look, he hesitated for a moment and told her the story of the old eunuch and the imperial concubine.
He had been with the old eunuch for a long time and knew that the old eunuch was a martial artist. The Taipin came from an ordinary family and her father was a sixth-rank official. When the Taipin was a girl, she went to the temple to burn incense and was affected by refugees. The horse ran out of control and the carriage almost fell into the ravine nearby. She was rescued by a passing knight. The two met and fell in love, but it was out of love and within the bounds of etiquette. The knight went to the girl's family to propose marriage, but the girl's father disliked the fact that he had no fixed place to live and was from a martial artist, so he refused.
Later, when the late emperor, that is, his grandfather, was choosing a concubine, the girl's father sent her to the palace. The girl was favored by the grandfather and stayed in the palace and became a concubine. When the knight learned about it, he cut off his body and entered the palace and stayed with the girl silently. Later, the girl made a mistake and was sent to the cold palace, and he was the only one who accompanied her silently.
Later, when he was ten years old, the Concubine Tai passed away. Because she was the emperor's grandfather's concubine, she was banished to the cold palace and naturally buried next to the imperial mausoleum.
A few days after the imperial concubine passed away, the old eunuch also passed away. No one knew his name or where he was registered, so they just buried him in a mass grave outside the city.
The old eunuch told him this story when he was about to die. In the end, the old eunuch begged him to pick up his bones, burn them into ashes, and sprinkle them on the concubine's grave.
He got what he wanted.
Xu Qinyu didn't expect to hear another love story. After listening to it, she felt sad and a little sighed. She felt sorry for the old concubine and the old eunuch. She thought that the old eunuch was loyal. She thought that the two of them had at least been together for half their lives, so they were not lonely. They would be buried together after death. She hoped that they could have a good ending in the next life.
After Xu Qinyu finished sighing, she saw the little white snake beside the stove and thought of her dream last night. She couldn't help but pet it. Seeing the little black panther next to it, she petted it too for the sake of fairness. Then she spoke to Pei Weixuan, "Fourth brother, how about giving them two names?"
Although you only raise the little white snake for two or three months, you may develop feelings for it in two or three months. You can't always call it "little snake", so it's more convenient to give it a name.
There is also a little black panther. We will rely on it to guard the house in the future, so it also needs a name.
Pei Weixuan glanced at the white and black ones, "It's up to you, Yu Niang."
Xu Qinyu was frying eggs while thinking of names for the two.
Finally, she thought the little snake looked like white jade, so she named it Baiyu. Hey, she thought the name was pretty good and nice.
At least the little black panther, seeing how black he was, thought about it and decided to name him Ink.
Pei Weixuan also thought that these two names were good. Ink should be the ink ground from the ink stick.
So she calls ink "ink" there?
After naming the two little ones, Xu Qinyu finished frying the eggs and started making pancakes.
In the morning, the two of them went to the stall together again, and it was snowing heavily.
When they arrived at the dock, Xu Qinyu had been selling roujiamo for half a month and was worried that they were getting tired of it. She asked them, "Brother Zhuanzi and Heidan, you've been eating roujiamo for half a month, are you tired of it?"
The two naturally shook their heads, "How can we get tired of eating something so delicious?"
They were a poor family, so there was no such thing as getting tired of eating. They had a hard life in the past. In the winter, they only had taro and bean porridge, and the only vegetables they had were turnips and radish. They were all boiled in water, and they still ate them up in big mouthfuls because they were hungry.
Xu Qinyu thought about it and said, "I plan to serve a new dish tomorrow. It's still made with pig intestines, but the taste is different. I'll make a small amount tomorrow to test sell it."
She always wants to try something new. She has been eating fish for half a month, and recently she doesn't eat roujiamo or fish for breakfast or dinner, but eats something else instead.
Zhuanzi said to Heidan, "We like whatever food the young lady cooks."
They really trust the young lady's craftsmanship!
