Just because you tell me to go out doesn't mean I have to go out!
Even when he's sick, he's still so stubborn and cold!
Never mind, let's try the water from the sacred spring; it'll cure all poisons!
Su Nanxi walked to a small table, picked up a teacup, and stuck her finger in. Spring water flowed down her finger into the teacup, and it was full in no time.
She picked up the teacup, walked up to Mo Qinghe, poked him with her finger, and handed him the teacup when he opened his eyes.
Mo Qinghe slowly opened his eyes, a cold glint in them, and looked coldly at Su Nanxi.
He really wanted to throw the woman in front of him out. He suddenly felt the effects of the poison and could barely hold on. He had no strength to explain to her and just hoped that she would see it and be scared and leave.
However, Su Nanxi showed no fear or intention to run away. Seeing that Mo Qinghe was not moving, she simply took matters into her own hands, grabbed his chin with one hand, pried open his mouth, and poured the spiritual spring water into his mouth with the other.
Mo Qinghe never expected Su Nanxi to be so fierce. He had no ability to resist at this moment and could only be manipulated by others. He was forced to drink a bowl of water, which made him completely exhausted.
However, Mo Qinghe soon noticed something was wrong. He felt a warm current in his stomach, which grew hotter and hotter, and then suddenly spread rapidly throughout his body. It was as if his body had been opened up. Except for his legs, his whole body felt warm and comfortable, and he no longer felt the pain and discomfort from the previous poisoning.
Seeing that his breathing had stabilized, Su Nanxi knew that the spiritual spring water had worked, and she breathed a sigh of relief, which meant there was hope for him to stand up.
Just as she was relieved, Mo Qinghe suddenly turned his head and vomited a mouthful of black blood, which terrified her so much that her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
She quickly went forward to check on him, but Mo Qinghe noticed her approaching. Without turning his head, he reached out and stopped her. After a while, he said calmly, "I'm fine. I feel much better after throwing up."
Oh, that's good. She was terrified; she thought the sacred spring had turned into poison.
She took a towel, wet it, and cleaned Mo Qinghe up. Then she gestured with her hands that she wanted to carry him to the bed so he could lie down and rest for a while.
Mo Qinghe understood, but he didn't want Su Nanxi to carry him. He wanted to move to the bed himself, but he didn't have the strength and failed several times.
Su Nanxi didn't care whether he wanted to or not. She turned around, squatted down, leaned back, grabbed his hands and put them on her shoulders. Then she supported his thighs, straightened up, and walked to the bedside in a few steps. She turned around, bent down and put him down. The whole process was done in one go without any delay.
After Su Nanxi left, Mo Qinghe was still in a daze. He didn't expect Su Nanxi to be so slender yet so strong, and her movements were so natural and unpretentious.
Thinking of that bowl of water, he looked at his legs, his eyes darkening, then looked towards the door, lost in thought.
Su Nanxi returned after a long time. When she came back, she brought a bowl of water. She put the bowl on the table, then went over to help Mo Qinghe up. She turned around, brought the water over, and handed it to Mo Qinghe, indicating that he should drink it.
Mo Qinghe glanced at the water in the bowl. It was no different from the water he drank on other days; it was crystal clear, but it smelled sweeter. He knew this bowl was the same as the previous one. So he stopped worrying about it and gulped it down.
"Thank you." He said, handing the bowl to Su Nanxi.
Su Nanxi waved her hand, indicating that she was not being polite, and then took the bowl and went out again.
Don't ask her where she went; if you do, she'll say she went to find food—specifically, into her spatial dimension. She rummaged around inside for a while, which is why it took her so long.
When she came out, she mixed the spiritual spring water with cooled boiled water. She saw that Mo Qinghe had vomited blood, but she guessed that not much of it had gone into his stomach. However, she was worried that if he drank too much spiritual spring water at once, his body would not be able to handle it, so it was safer to mix it with water.
When she returned to the room, she found that Mo Qinghe had stopped vomiting blood and was in much better spirits, which relieved her and proved that she had done the right thing.
It was quite hot, and the bed was small. Afraid of disturbing Mo Qinghe's rest, she grabbed a long bench on her way back, intending to make do with it for a while.
Seeing this, Mo Qinghe looked at her with a quiet gaze and asked, "Are you planning to rest up there?"
Su Nanxi nodded, lay down, adjusted her sleeping position several times, finally found a more comfortable position, and then closed her eyes.
Mo Qinghe watched from the side, wanting to tell Su Nanxi to lie down on the bed, but he couldn't bring himself to say it. When he saw that Su Nanxi had closed her eyes and was not moving, he slowly closed his eyes as well.
Even after drinking water this time, I still felt a warm current flowing through my whole body, just not as intense as the first time.
In the afternoon, Mo Qinghe went out and wove things with bamboo strips under the eaves at the corner.
The rest of the Mo family were nowhere to be seen either; they had probably all gone out, making it unusually quiet.
Su Nanxi brought over the diluted spiritual spring water, and Mo Qinghe put down what he was holding, took it, and drank it all in one gulp.
As she handed the bowl over, she asked Su Nanxi, "This water is delicious, where did you get it from?"
Su Nanxi paused slightly as she took the bowl, knowing that Mo Qinghe was suspicious. She pointed to a well next to her and then to the kitchen, indicating that she should draw some boiled food from the well.
Mo Qinghe didn't say anything more and continued weaving, but he didn't completely trust Su Nanxi.
He had been drinking the water from that well for over a decade. If the water had such potent effects, why would his legs have become useless? Could the well water have suddenly changed? That's highly unlikely.
Su Nanxi knew that Mo Qinghe did not believe her, and in order not to expose her secret, she decided to put spiritual spring water into the well.
But Mo Qinghe was watching her too closely, and she didn't have a chance to get close to the well all afternoon, so she couldn't put the spiritual spring water in at all.
If the well doesn't work, then change your target.
Su Nanxi turned her attention to water tanks and buckets, which were easier for her to approach and less likely to arouse suspicion.
When the Mo family returned home late, there was a large group of people, making it very lively. The children ran up to Mo Qinghe, watched him weave, and asked him questions from time to time.
Su Nanxi finally found an opportunity. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her, she quickly poured spiritual spring water into the water tank, and then casually went to the side to stay.
"I'm thirsty and want to drink some water. Yunmei, could you get me a bowl of water?"
Mo Yunmei immediately stood up. "Okay, but Third Brother, there's no cold boiled water left. You'll have to wait while I go boil some."
"Um."
The water boiled quickly, and Mo Yunmei took a large plate, poured half a bowl of it into it, and shook it from side to side. The water cooled down quickly.
Mo Qinghe drank it, and it tasted the same. He was a little unsure. Could it really be because of the well water?
Su Nanxi looked down and played with her fingers. Sigh, this person is too smart. She really did suspect something. Luckily, she put spiritual spring water into the water tank.
Consider it a benefit for the Mo family; everyone gets a share, and drinking it will make them strong, healthy, and live longer.
Just as a group of people were chatting happily, a clear and melodious voice came from outside the courtyard.
"Yunmei! Yunmei!"
Mo Yunmei was overjoyed to hear this and ran out, calling out, "Sister Qiuxia, what brings you here? Come in and sit down for a while."
Qiuxia smiled gently, "No, I'll just give you some greens. I picked too many at home, so you can take them. I'm going back now."
After seeing Qiu Xia off, Mo Yunmei skipped and jumped into the kitchen, put down the vegetables, and ran out again.
Excitedly, she ran up to Su Nanxi and asked, "Do you know who she is?"
Su Nanxi was stunned for a moment before realizing that the question was directed at her, and she immediately shook her head.
"If you hadn't come, she would be my third sister-in-law! Look how good she is, how well she matches my third brother! Look at yourself, don't you know what you look like? Humph! I will never acknowledge you as my third sister-in-law!"
