She quickly formulated a prescription based on the contents of "Xie's Herbal Compendium" and said that she would go back and refine the medicine, and that the illness would be cured naturally after taking the medicine.
"Alright, then I'll trouble this young lady." Shen Ye smiled and decisively handed the task of treating the old lady over to Xie Ziyuan.
Looking closely at the other person's flawless face, Xie Ziyuan's heart couldn't help but pound, and she whispered "yes."
By the time she returned to her alchemy room, the news had already spread throughout Baicaotang.
Even when the self-inspection team went to investigate the alchemists' alchemy rooms, she refused to come out of the house because she had been personally selected by the family head to treat the old lady, and no one dared to say anything.
In just a few hours, Xie Ziyuan tasted the benefits of privilege.
Ding Ruoxu dismissed yet another person who came to curry favor, and looked at Xie Ziyuan with a smile: "My daughter, you are indeed a dragon among men. You must have left a good impression on the head of the family today. Try your best to cure the old lady's illness this time, and the head of the family will definitely thank you again."
With these back-and-forth interactions, Xie Ziyuan has plenty of room to maneuver whenever there is contact.
Moreover, he knew that Xie Ziyuan had helped Xie Zhendong develop pills for that purpose, and he tried one of them, which worked surprisingly well.
The head of the family is, after all, a man, and men are inherently prone to loneliness. If Xie Ziyuan secretly gets some medicine, wouldn't it be a perfectly logical thing to proceed?
For once, Xie Ziyuan did not show any resistance to Ding Ruoxu's despicable methods.
He simply turned around and said calmly, "Uncle, I'm busy refining medicine, so please don't disturb me."
Ding Ruoxu smiled and realized what was going on. Huo Yuntang had originally planned to visit Xie Ziyuan this afternoon, but since Xie Ziyuan was going to refine medicine, this naturally provided an excuse to refuse.
In any case, he had already received a lot of benefits from the Huo and Zhao families in recent days. Seeing that Xie Ziyuan was about to become the head of the family, he could give up on the Huo family.
In just one day, Xie Ziyuan had prepared the medicine and personally delivered it to the old lady.
Both the head of the family and Shen Luocheng were at the bedside fulfilling their filial duties.
Shen Ye glanced at the pills in Xie Ziyuan's hand. "Will this medicine have any side effects? Has it been tested and verified?"
This shows that he doesn't really trust Xie Ziyuan. Xie Ziyuan's heart tightened, but before she could speak, Shen Luocheng said with a smile, "Aye, you're too suspicious."
His tone carried a slight reproach, as if he were just joking. As he spoke, he took the pill and personally fed it to the old lady.
The medicine worked quickly, and the old lady woke up soon after, saying she felt much better and wanted to get out of bed for a walk.
Shen Luocheng smiled and said, "I really have to thank Ziyuan for this. Her alchemy skills are truly amazing. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a divine doctor."
Shen Ye smiled, neither confirming nor denying.
Xie Ziyuan cured the old lady, but she was neither arrogant nor impatient. She said that she had to go prepare for the big exam tomorrow, and that if the old lady needed anything, she could just send someone to call her. Then she took her leave.
When she returned to the alchemy room, Zhang Ma had already regained consciousness, something Xie Ziyuan hadn't expected at all.
She sighed slightly, enduring Zhang Ma's angry and confused gaze. "I can't make the decision on this matter. If you want to blame someone, blame Xie Li. If she hadn't fed you with the Sacred Heart Fruit, you wouldn't have been targeted."
She gently patted Zhang Ma's hand, her demeanor as dignified, generous, and kind as ever.
"You are safe with me, don't worry. I will take your blood in a planned way, and it will absolutely not endanger your life."
