Chapter 257 Negotiating Terms with Ah Man
After receiving Ye Chutang's assurance, Ah Man's sadness disappeared.
She summoned a fingernail-sized poisonous insect from the longevity lock and placed it on the back of Xize's hand.
The poisonous insect bared its fangs and pierced into the back of the hand.
The black insect body quickly turned blood red.
And Caesar's pale face regained its rosy color at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The poison has been resolved.
Ah Man took away the poisonous insect and put it back into the longevity lock.
She went back to her room and got her bag. "Let's go and help Brother Qi detoxify."
On the way to the inn, she asked Ye Chutang about Qi Yanzhou's current physical condition.
Knowing that he was now lying in bed unconscious, relying on acupuncture to keep his life alive, I felt very regretful and guilty.
"I was too willful. I shouldn't have forced him to marry a concubine. I wasted a day."
Now that she had calmed down, she felt stupid and ridiculous.
Ye Chutang shook his head.
"I don't blame you. Qi Yanzhou asked for it. He even caused me to use my energy to give him acupuncture."
As husband and wife, you should be honest with each other.
She doesn't like white lies and self-righteous deception.
If Qi Yanzhou had told her immediately about the conditions proposed by A'man, the fire poison would have been cured long ago.
After listening to Ye Chutang's explanation, Ah Man asked sincerely.
"You really don't blame me for forcing Brother Qi to divorce you and forcing him to marry me as his co-wife?"
She suspected that Ye Chutang didn't care about Brother Qi.
If it were her, she would not only be surprised, but would also start a fight!
Ye Chutang smiled and said, "Don't blame me. If it were me, I would do the same as you."
It was difficult for women in ancient times to control their own destiny and they were destined to get married.
If you have the opportunity to be with your loved one, you will naturally try your best.
There is nothing wrong with this and there is no shame in it.
Ah Man is straightforward and said bluntly: "If I were you, I would blame the bad woman who wanted to steal my husband. Don't you care about Brother Qi?"
Nan Xiao and Xize craned their necks to eavesdrop.
In fact, with their hearing ability, they can hear it clearly without any effort, so there is no need to be so vulgar.
Ye Chutang looked at Ah Man who seemed to have discovered a shocking secret and couldn't help but chuckle.
"I care about him and trust him even more."
"So, you think Brother Qi will never be snatched away by me, right?"
"yes."
Ah Man was aroused to be competitive.
"Hmph, don't regret it when I snatch Brother Qi away from you!"
Ye Chutang looked at the lovely Ah Man and raised his hand to twang the bell on her forehead.
The bells rang gently, sounding crisp and melodious.
"If that day comes, I will prepare a ten-mile red dowry for you and send you off to marry."
After saying that, she added.
"Ah Man, no matter who you marry in the future, my promise will stand."
Of course, she was not in a hurry to spend too much money, but she wanted to learn more about the poisonous insects from Aman just in case.
Ah Man wiped the bell that Ye Chutang had touched with disdain.
"Humph, I don't need it!"
She has hands and feet, and can earn money to prepare her dowry.
Nan Xiao and Xize, who were following behind the two of them, had the illusion that they were looking at sisters.
The two looked at each other and saw admiration for Ye Chutang in each other's eyes.
After a while, the four arrived at the inn.
Madam Qi, who was eagerly waiting, stepped forward and held Ye Chutang's hand.
"Tang'er, why did you take so long? Where are the medicines you bought?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Ah Man wearing strange clothes.
"This is..."
Halfway through her words, she suddenly realized what was happening and her eyes widened.
"Is she the witch doctor who can cure Zhou'er of the poison?"
Ye Chutang nodded, "Yes, she is the witch doctor from Southern Xinjiang who once saved Azhou's life, A Man."
After that, she introduced to Ah Man: "Ah Man, this is Qi Yanzhou's mother, you can just call her old lady."
Ah Man immediately performed the Southern Xinjiang salute to Madam Qi as a sign of respect.
"Hello, old lady."
"Okay, Miss Ah Man, you have traveled day and night from such a far place in Southern Xinjiang. Thank you for your hard work."
She poured a glass of water for Ah Man and handed it to her.
"You must be thirsty after all this galloping. Drink some water to moisten your throat."
Her boat was finally saved!
When Ah Man heard this, he felt extremely ashamed.
She took the cup of water and felt it weighed a thousand pounds.
If the old lady knew that she arrived in Jizhou City in the morning but refused to come to detoxify Brother Qi, she would definitely be very angry, right?
Ye Chutang saw Ah Man's embarrassment and said, "Miss Ah Man, although it is very hard for you to travel, Qi Yanzhou's condition cannot wait any longer. After you finish your tea, we will go upstairs to detoxify him."
Ah Man didn't expect that Ye Chutang not only didn't expose her, but also helped her resolve the embarrassment.
A feeling of gratitude emerged in her heart, but she suppressed it.
She nodded and drank the warm tea in the cup.
"Thank you for the tea, ma'am. It's delicious."
When Old Madam Qi heard Ye Chutang calling her son by his name, she felt something was wrong.
But now is not the time to ask.
She took the empty cup from Ah Man's hand with a smile on her face.
"If Miss Ah Man likes to drink, after you have cured Zhou Er of the poison, come downstairs and have a few more drinks."
"good."
After Ah Man responded, he followed Ye Chutang to the No. 1 room on the third floor.
Ye Chutang looked at the group of people who followed closely and said, "Xize, follow us. Everyone just wait downstairs."
Although Mr. Qi was very worried about his son, he stopped obediently.
He nodded and replied, "Okay, we won't go up to disturb you."
Old Madam Qi couldn't help but ask.
"Tang'er, it's almost time for dinner. When is the best time to cook?"
In other words, how long does it take to detoxify?
Ye Chutang thought for a moment and replied, "Let's go downstairs to eat in an hour."
"Okay, go ahead."
The three of them went upstairs.
Ye Chutang had already prepared the things needed to detoxify.
She asked Caesar and Ah Man, "You all know the details of detoxification, right?"
Long ago, she asked Qi Yanzhou to write a letter to Xize, describing in detail the precautions for detoxification.
The purpose is to let Ah Man remember the details to avoid mistakes.
Xize and A'man looked at Qi Yanzhou, who was lying on the bed with red hair and a face as red as liver, and nodded heavily.
While detoxifying the fire poison, you also need to detoxify the Gu poison.
If there was any mistake, Qi Yanzhou would die.
This man is the one they care about most.
Therefore, they had already deeply engraved the details of detoxification in their minds.
After Ye Chutang waited for Ah Man to get ready, he said, "I'll start."
This time the detoxification is the same as last time, and the fire poison needs to be completely induced first.
She had previously used silver needles to control the fire poison, and now she was using them to induce the fire poison.
Qi Yanzhou's hair turned a bright red, his body temperature rose rapidly, his muscles tensed, and veins bulged.
Suddenly, his eyes opened.
The bloodshot eyes were like those of a demon from hell, cold in their scarlet color.
Ye Chutang quickly took off his shirt, revealing his strong and hot upper body.
Ah Man immediately looked away, and was so shy that she stuttered when she spoke.
“You…how could you…”
Ye Chutang threw his shirt aside and said to Caesar, "Come here and hold him."
Qi Yanzhou was conscious, but his whole body was burning hot and weak, and his head hurt as if it was about to split.
The blood was boiling and surging, as if it was going to tear him apart.
