Li Ying listened silently and gently put down the tea in her hand.
"You mean it's generally difficult to get people from the Nan family to come?"
"Yes, it's priceless!" Lu Qingwan exaggerated a bit.
Li Ying responded with an "Oh," and then asked, "So you invited this Miss Nan here so easily?"
That's interesting.
When Li Ying returned to her room, she saw Ye Jingchi arranging a pile of wood at the door.
"what you do?"
"Make a crib." Ye Jingchi answered without stopping his work or looking up.
Making a crib—he must be taking care of his affairs before he can leave this world in peace!
"Ye Jingchi, do you believe me?" Li Ying looked at Ye Jingchi, who was whittling wood, with a serious expression.
"I believe you." Ye Jingchi paused, "but I don't need the Nan family's antidote."
Li Ying smiled lightly, "It's not the Nan family who will detoxify you, it's me."
Ye Jingchi looked up at Li Ying. There was a light in her eyes, a light of confidence that she could heal him.
Ye Jingchi chuckled softly, "I believe you can definitely cure me!"
Li Ying could tell that he was just placating her; he believed there was no cure for the poison in his body, which was why he was comforting himself.
"It seems you still don't understand me."
"Li Ying, have you ever truly understood me?"
Their eyes met, and they looked away almost simultaneously.
The two of them didn't seem to know each other very well.
"I've found the finest pear wood to make a crib for our unborn child." Ye Jingchi paused for a moment, then said, "Besides that, I don't know what else I can do for her?"
Li Ying approached Ye Jingchi, reached out and grasped his large, strong hand, "Ye Jingchi, you will see the child born, and you will see the child grow up, believe me!"
Ye Jingchi forced a smile: "Yes, my wife is Qian Lao's apprentice, she'll definitely have a way!"
Li Ying rolled her eyes, clearly not believing she had the ability.
In the afternoon, Lu Qingzhu and Nan Shiran visited again.
Ye Jingchi was not there, so Li Ying received the two of them.
"Junior Sister, where did Ye Jingchi go again?" Lu Qingzhu frowned. This person is too unreliable. We invited him here, why did he run away?
“He has something to do in his troupe that needs his attention. Junior Brother, Miss Nan, you don’t need to run around. I can cure Ye Jingchi’s poison,” Li Ying said solemnly.
Nan Shiran raised an eyebrow and glanced at Li Ying with disdain: "I know you're Master Qian's apprentice. But you're far too confident! Have you really seen the poison on Ye Jingchi's body?"
"I've met you."
Nan Shiran frowned slightly and said coldly, "Li Ying, Ye Jingchi doesn't belong to you alone. He belongs to the country, the Ye family, and his parents. What gives you the right to decide his fate?"
"Because I am his wife!" Li Ying said frankly without any pretense.
"Wife?" Nan Shiran scoffed, then said to Lu Qingzhu, "It seems your good intentions are going to be in vain. My Nan family doesn't save just anyone. Since others disagree, I will still rush to help them detoxify. But let me make this clear: if you want my Nan family to intervene again, you'll have to kneel and kowtow three times."
After saying that, he turned and walked away with an air of arrogance.
Lu Qingzhu wanted to stop her, but seeing Li Ying's resolute attitude, she did not.
"Junior brother, I may have disappointed you."
"Junior Sister, are you really able to detoxify Ye Jingchi?" Lu Qingzhu didn't blame Li Ying, but she was unsure of Li Ying's abilities.
"Yes!" Li Ying replied without hesitation.
"That's good!"
"By the way, junior brother, did you find the medicinal herbs I asked you to find for me?"
Li Ying asked.
Lu Qingzhu felt very ashamed: "The Nan family won't give it, they only agreed to let Nan Shiran come to detoxify Ye Jingchi."
Otherwise, why would he have brought Nan Shiran with him?
"It's alright, junior brother, I've already found a way to detoxify."
Lu Qingzhu smiled, unable to help but admire her junior sister's intelligence.
Lu Qingzhu helped Zhou Qi into the living room.
"Miss Ying, I heard that the Nan family came to detoxify Commander Ye. Why did you let them leave?" Zhou Qi asked anxiously.
"I can cure the poison in Ye Jingchi's body."
Li Ying used the same old excuse.
“Miss Ying, your medical skills are indeed remarkable, but there are some things you really can’t force. Only the Nan family can cure the poison in Ye Jingchi’s body!” Zhou Qi overheard the Nan family’s conversation when he was investigating Director Yu in Jiangcheng, and that’s when he learned that only the Nan family could cure the poison in Ye Jingchi’s body.
Otherwise, death is certain!
Li Ying asked in surprise, "Are you so sure?"
Zhou Qi then told Li Ying what he had overheard unintentionally in Jiangcheng.
"Besides the Nan family, no one can cure the poison in Ye Jingchi's body. No matter how many prescriptions are given, they can only alleviate the symptoms, not cure the disease."
Li Ying fell silent.
After a long silence, Li Ying spoke up: "I understand, but I believe in myself and I can cure Ye Jingchi."
That evening, after finishing her dinner, Li Ying sat under the lamp, waiting quietly.
Until Ye Jingchi pushed open the bedroom door and walked in.
Why aren't you asleep yet?
Li Ying looked up and saw that Ye Jingchi's face was pale. She guessed that the poison had flared up again, but he dared not let her see it.
"Ye Jingchi, sit down."
Ye Jingchi sat down.
Li Ying gestured for him to place his wrist on the table, "Let me take your pulse."
Ye Jingchi did not refuse and extended his arm to take her pulse.
Li Ying carefully took the pulse, then withdrew her hand.
If her judgment is correct, then the ancient method can definitely be used to resolve the issue.
Li Ying pushed a small cup of wine to Ye Jingchi: "Drink this!"
Ye Jingchi didn't ask any questions, and simply picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"By the way, Hua Qingqing is hosting a banquet at her home tomorrow. Are you going?"
