Chapter 354: Could it be a branch of the Yu family?
Xing Xing said, "This jade bracelet is too precious. I won't accept it. If you want to pay me for the consultation, just give me fifty taels of silver."
The raw materials of the detoxification pills are precious. Since the other party is willing to give up this jade bracelet that can be sold for hundreds of taels, I think he will not be reluctant to give up fifty taels.
Nan Yan was a little dazed.
Although Madam Zheng was not feeling well at the moment, she could not help but smile. She weakly told Nan Yan, "...give this little girl fifty taels of silver."
Nan Yan hurriedly took out a fifty-liang silver note from her pocket and handed it over.
Xing Xing took it generously and put the banknote into her arms.
She squatted aside, accompanying the old lady as she waited for the doctor, and took the opportunity to soothe the acupuncture points on the old lady's back.
After this treatment, the old lady looked much better.
Nan Yan looked at the old lady's obviously better complexion, and almost kowtowed to Xing Xing to thank her for her kindness. She wiped her tears and choked up, "Old lady, you can't do this again. You insisted on coming to this street to eat wontons, and I secretly accompanied you out, but you suddenly fainted, and I was scared to death... I wanted to die to atone for my sin just now..."
Madam Zheng waved her hands and said, "That's enough. I'm not dead yet. Oh, by the way, even if I die, you are not allowed to accompany me. It's too noisy. It gives me a headache."
Nan Yan held back tears in her eyes, looking extremely pitiful: "Old Madam!"
Old Madam Zheng felt much better now. She stretched out her hand and asked Nan Yan to help her up.
The shop owner nearby was very kind and invited Mrs. Zheng to sit in the shop and rest.
Mrs. Zheng thanked the store owner and, with Nan Yan's help, went inside the store to sit down. The store owner was very kind and offered her hot water.
Xing Xing also followed and sat aside, explaining, "I will leave after the doctor comes and verifies that my pills are non-toxic."
It would be very troublesome if something happened to the old lady later and her pills were blamed for it.
Madam Zheng was startled: "No, I believe you."
Xing Xing shook her head and said with a smile, "Madam, you believe me, and this sister believes me, but others may not believe me. If others use this to stir up trouble, it will be a headache for me... Being cautious now can save a lot of trouble in the future, so it's worth it. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry, so being cautious won't hurt."
Old Madam Zheng once again gained a deeper understanding of Xingxing.
This little girl speaks with a smile and behaves in a graceful manner. It is obvious that she was brought up in a pampered home.
But she is so clear!
The more you watch it, the more you like it.
Especially since he just saved my life!
Madam Zheng smiled and asked, "Little girl, what is your name?"
Xingxing replied: "Madam, my name is Yu Xingxing."
Madam Zheng's mind moved: "Which Yu?"
Her elder sister is the wife of the Duke of Xin, and the Duke of Xin’s Mansion is named Yu.
Could it be a branch of the Yu family?
Xing Xing smiled and said, "It's a metaphor for 'I bow my head and sigh alone, and no one can understand this sigh.'"
Although she is not a branch of the Yu family, Mrs. Zheng saw that Xingxing mentioned poetry casually, which shows that she is also well-educated.
I don’t know which family could raise such a good girl!
Madam Zheng liked Xing Xing more and more, and took Xing Xing's hand and said, "My dear girl, my surname is Zheng, and I am from Weibei Marquis's Mansion. When I go back, I will tell the doorman that if you want to come to Weibei Marquis's Mansion to visit me someday, just tell the doorman your name."
Xingxing felt that the name Weibei Hou sounded familiar.
After thinking about it for a while, she remembered that Old Lady Liu had mentioned to her on the way that there was a saying that there were three dukes and five marquises in the capital.
Weibei Hou seems to be one of them.
Did I save a big shot?
Xing Xing thought to herself, it seems that not all the rich and powerful are difficult to get along with. The old lady of the Weibei Marquis's Mansion seems very kind and loving.
She didn't know why, but when she saw the old lady, she felt a sense of familiarity.
Maybe it's fate that binds people together!
It was obvious that Madam Zheng liked Xingxing very much. Her face became more rosy as they talked. When the doctor came, he was stunned for a moment.
Didn’t they say there was a patient who fainted?
Where?
Madam Zheng took the initiative to stretch out her hand for the doctor to feel her pulse. The doctor then reacted and hurried over to feel her pulse.
The doctor was slightly stunned when he took the pulse.
This... looks pretty healthy?
Xing Xing reminded: "Doctor, please pay attention to the liver meridian."
The doctor frowned again and became more and more frightened.
This pulse appears to be no different from that of a normal person, but in fact the liver meridian is slightly weak and slippery. If you don't pay attention, it would be difficult to detect this subtle difference.
The doctor quickly checked Mrs. Zheng's tongue coating and made a diagnosis.
This is... a sign of poisoning!
Cold sweat started to run down the doctor's forehead.
The doctor said with cold sweat: "... Old lady, you are poisoned. The poison is very mild, but the day-to-day erosion has made your body gradually weak..."
After a pause, he looked to the side and asked hesitantly, "Have you taken any detoxifying products? Listening carefully to the pulse of the heart meridian, it doesn't quite match the pulse of the liver meridian."
Nan Yan nodded excitedly: "Yes, yes, yes, this little miracle doctor gave our old lady a detoxification pill!"
Xing Xing took out the remaining half of the pill from the oil paper package and handed it to the doctor: "This is it. Can you check it? Is there anything wrong with this pill?"
The doctor took the pill, sniffed it for a long time, and nodded with affirmation and excitement: "No problem, no problem, and it is an excellent detoxification pill... Little girl, where did you get this?"
The maidservant that Xing Xing brought with her said with pride, "This was all prepared by our young lady herself! Many precious and rare medicinal herbs were used!"
When they heard that it was Xingxing who configured it herself, everyone present couldn't help but be stunned.
Xing Xing felt a little shy and rubbed her cheeks gently: "…It was Grandma Da Xi who taught me. It can't be considered my credit."
Xing Xing handed the half pill of detoxification medicine to Madam Zheng and said, "Madam, you have already paid for the consultation. This half pill was originally for the doctor to test for poison. Now that it has been confirmed to be non-toxic, you can take this half pill of detoxification medicine and then make some detoxification soup to slowly recuperate your body. It will be better for your health."
Madam Zheng took the antidote pill and put it into her mouth without hesitation.
Since it has been confirmed that the pills are non-toxic, Xing Xing stood up and said goodbye to Madam Zheng: "Madam, I will leave first."
Old Madam Zheng really wanted to spend more time with Xingxing, but she had already delayed her for a long time today. She had already done enough by saving her life when they met by chance.
Old Madam Zheng did not try to persuade them to stay and watched Xingxing and her maid walk out of the small shop.
