Chapter 89 Lu Yuan's Unconditional Trust
Nandina domestica is poisonous, and the whole plant is poisonous. The symptoms after poisoning are similar to those of Zhao Da. The most serious ones can cause respiratory failure and cardiac arrest and death. Gu Qingshi certainly does not want such an outcome.
After determining the source of the poison, the police began investigating the murderer, and the hospital also provided treatment for Zhao Da's nandina domestica poisoning.
The murderer had not been found yet. By the evening, Zhao Da's condition, which had been somewhat relieved, worsened. The reason was that he had an existing illness, and the poisoning caused complications.
This was a bit tricky and troublesome. The doctor, family members and Gu Qingshi explained the situation and issued a critical illness notice.
They couldn't guarantee a cure, but they would definitely try their best to rescue him. After hearing this, Gu Qingshi was still thinking about what other methods could be used, but he didn't expect Zhao Er and his father to directly hear that Zhao Da was doomed to die.
The doctors were clearly still trying to save the patient, and the patient was not dead yet, but they treated him as if he were dead. I don't know where they got the advice from, but they protested in the hospital holding cardboard banners with slogans such as "Gu's Kitchen poisoned and killed people" and "Give me back my son's life".
Bai Zhong had explained in detail that Gu's Kitchen had suspended business. Everyone knew about it, but they didn't know the person's condition. They thought he was dead, but it turned out he was still alive.
Zhao Er and his friends originally wanted to demonstrate in front of Gu's Kitchen and smash the shop, but they were driven away by Shen Muqi. They didn't dare to offend Shen Muqi, so they had to give up negotiating with Gu Qingshi for money and asked for 20,000 yuan.
"The person is still being rescued and the poisoner has not been caught yet. It's useless for you to talk to me now." Gu Qingshi refused directly.
"The person was poisoned in your store, so we are only looking for you. If you don't pay, we will put you in jail for the rest of your life!"
"I told you that he will be rescued!" Gu Qingshi slammed the table and stood up, "Or do you just hope that he dies so that you can extort money from him?"
Gu Qingshi looked at Zhao's mother who had been silent the whole time, "Do you really want your son to die? I'm still hoping that he'll be rescued and live well. You're still his relatives? Are you so impatient for him to die?"
She pointed to the ward and said, "Didn't you ever think that he could hear it? How would he feel if he heard it?"
Gu Qingshi was worried, so he stayed outside the ICU, and Zhao Er and the others were negotiating outside the door.
Hearing this, Zhao's mother's face turned pale instantly, and she murmured that she had not. Zhao's father's cheek twitched and he said, "Don't scare us. How can you be alive after being put in such an intensive care unit?"
There was someone in their village who was admitted to the intensive care unit. At first, they said they wanted to give him a life-saving treatment, but he still died later. It was just a waste of money to drag it on.
He felt that he was not wrong. Although this was unfair to the eldest son, life had to go on and he could not lose a son in vain. Only when he got money, built a new house and lived a good life, could he find a good wife for the second son to continue the Zhao family line.
Zhao Er heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his father speak. He was sad at first when his elder brother got into trouble, but now his mind and eyes are full of money. He even hopes that he will die, so that he can live a good life after he dies.
Otherwise, what else can Zhao Da do except delaying people if he lives half-dead?
Gu Qingshi saw clearly the greed in Zhao Er's eyes. He then looked at Zhao's father and mother, sneered, and was too lazy to talk nonsense with them.
"You also said he's still alive. If he's still alive, don't be so ugly when eating. Get out of here now!"
Having said that, Zhao Da's condition was indeed not optimistic. He was still alive, and the doctor performed another rescue operation. The longer he waited, the more dangerous it would be. The toxins were still in his body, and he urgently needed detoxification to get out of danger. However, detoxification was not that fast and took time.
Zhao Da himself felt it as well. He was groggy and in a state of semi-consciousness. What was even more sad was that he could vaguely hear the noises outside.
He used to call them dad and mom, but they never came in to see him once. Only Gu Qingshi always appeared in front of him, and he never mentioned them again.
"Am I going to die?" he asked Gu Qingshi.
"No, you'll be fine."
"You still want to lie to me. My dad and the others have given up on me. My mom didn't even come to see me for the last time. They are just like this. They always feel sorry for my brother. No matter how well I do, they can't see me. I always listen to them, but this time I don't want to listen. I don't want to give them money. Boss, don't give them money."
Zhao Da started to cry as he spoke, "They treated me like this when I was alive, I don't want them to eat my flesh and chew my bones after I die, Boss, I don't want to die, I don't want them to abuse me after I die."
"No, you won't die." Gu Qingshi grabbed his hand, "Trust me, I will save you. If anything happens to our Gu's Kitchen, I will be responsible to the end."
Zhao Da wanted to say something, but soon fell into a coma.
After Gu Qingshi sat quietly for a few minutes, she saw Lu Yuan coming over, and she made up her mind to speak, "Lu Yuan, I saw the doctor used Chinese medicine to detoxify, and I also have three kinds of Chinese medicine, can you replace them with what I gave you?"
Gu Qingshi was about to explain that there was nothing wrong with her medicine, it was just more effective, but Lu Yuan spoke up first, "Is it like your vegetables and fruits?"
"Yes." They were all grown in the space. I saw them on the roadside when I was walking on a mountain road with Lu Yuan and others on a business trip. I heard them say that they dug up the herbs and threw some of them into the space.
They were all relatively common medicines, and they grew well after being planted in the space. Gu Qingshi also planted and harvested them. Later, she did not look for any special places to plant them. But when she encountered such a thing today, she realized that she could also plant some Chinese medicine for backup in the future. If nothing unexpected happens, the medicines grown in the space will be twice as effective with half the effort.
"Okay." Lu Yuan agreed without hesitation.
Gu Qing also wanted to replace the water for decocting the medicine with Lingquan water. Lingquan water has a detoxifying effect. It has been used on her and even on Shen Muqi before. According to Shen Muqi, his wound was not infected at the time and healed quickly, and his foot also got much better.
She didn't dare to cause trouble before, but now that it has come to this, she is afraid that the situation will get worse, so she has to give it a try.
Lu Yuan agreed to all of Gu Qingshi's requests, and then went directly to the hospital and asked them to hand the patient over to him, saying, "I will take responsibility if anything goes wrong."
Zhao Da's situation is tricky, and Lu Yuan himself is a doctor and is fully capable of taking over. The hospital wanted to invite him before, but he was unwilling. Now that they see him taking over, they have no objection.
"He is my patient now. I have asked someone to change the medicine and the water used to decoct it." Lu Yuan had not asked Gu Qingshi about the "trade secret" of why the vegetables and fruits were so delicious before, and he did not ask this time.
He trusted Gu Qingshi. He had also eaten Gu Qingshi's dishes and knew that they were good for the body.
"Thank you, thank you Lu Yuan." Gu Qingshi was moved by Lu Yuan's trust and support.
