Mrs. Zhu was about to cry: "They only take action once every ten years. Can little Zhuzi wait that long?"
Pharmacist He also smiled bitterly: "They only treat you once every ten years, which shows how many people are waiting in line for treatment. Your family is just a small wealthy family, and you have no power or influence in the imperial capital. It's difficult, difficult."
What Pharmacist He didn't say was that this was almost impossible.
"Then our little Zhuzi... can only..." Mrs. Zhu cried and her tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Mother..." A tender and weak voice came out of Xiao Zhuzi's mouth: "Mother... Am I going to die? Mother, don't be sad. After I die, you and father can give birth to me again, okay?"
Hearing such a childlike voice, Mrs. Zhu felt sad and distressed, and looked at little Zhuzi with tears and laughter.
At this moment, Su Luo suddenly walked forward, took Xiao Zhuzi's hand, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Zhuzi, are you being naughty and don't like to eat?"
When Xiao Zhuzi saw Su Luo, his innocent eyes suddenly lit up: "No, I'm not. Xiao Zhuzi loves to eat. He can eat ten bowls of rice in one meal!"
Madam Zhu smiled wryly and said to Su Luo, "He has a huge appetite. At the time, some people even said he was born with supernatural powers. However, he grew up until he was six, and his strength didn't increase, but his appetite did. I don't know where he went with all the food he ate."
Su Luo smiled faintly: "It was eaten by insects."
Madam Zhu and Little Zhuzi both burst out laughing, but when they saw Su Luo's serious and solemn expression, Madam Zhu's heart moved: "Miss, you, you are not joking?"
Su Luo shook her head sternly, "I never joke about medical skills. There are worms in Xiao Zhuzi's body, and there's more than one. That's why he's had a big appetite since he was little. It's not because of his needs, but because of those worms."
"Ah!" Madam Zhu looked at Su Luo in horror. She then turned to look at Pharmacist He: "Is this... is this true? Pharmacist He, she, she is?"
It was also the first time that Pharmacist He met Su Luo. He turned around and looked at Shopkeeper Lu with a questioning look.
Shopkeeper Lu smiled bitterly. He never expected that this Miss Su just came in to sell medicinal herbs, but she actually took over Pharmacist He's job of treating patients, and she spoke in a very serious manner. The most speechless thing was that she could even make sense of it.
"Miss Su..." Shopkeeper Lu secretly pulled Su Luo's sleeve and reminded her, "Knock it down while you're ahead. If you keep talking, you won't be able to recover."
Su Luo smiled. She stared at Madam Zhu and said, "Madam Zhu, when you were pregnant with Xiaoyuan, did you ever eat raw frogs, especially the one called the green-haired frog?"
"You, how do you know?!" Madam Zhu stared at Su Luo in disbelief. Even Pharmacist He didn't know about this!
Madam Zhu looked at Su Luo, then looked at Pharmacist He with a questioning look. Who is this girl with sharp words but calm and composed?
Most alchemists are obsessed with medicine, so at this moment, Pharmacist He's eyes suddenly brightened after hearing Su Luo's words, as if he had just been enlightened: "Rumor has it that there are green-haired tapeworms in green-haired frogs. Could it be... But that's not right. Shouldn't green-haired tapeworms be in adults? How could this be?"
Su Luo looked at Madam Zhu steadily: "Madam Zhu had an abdominal injury at that time, right?"
