Chapter 22 Li Rouer
Although she knew that Peng Wang was poisoned by a coral reef snake, she would not be so ignorant as to act without being absolutely sure that it could be treated.
Squatting in front of Peng Wang, He Zhiran first pried open his eyelids to check, then took his pulse, and finally checked the wound on his leg.
Judging from Peng Wang’s current condition, if we come to see her half an hour later, it will be too late to save her.
Fortunately, there were several serums suitable for the condition in her infirmary.
It can also be said that Peng Wang was lucky to meet her.
After checking, He Zhiran slowly stood up and returned to the pile of herbs in front of everyone.
She found a gentian with the bitterest taste and returned.
He Zhiran handed the gentian to Zhang Qing, who had just yelled at him.
Gentiana is not suitable for treating snake venom, but she is a vengeful person.
"Bite this into pieces and use it to apply to the wound later."
Zhang Qing was unwilling.
"Why don't you just find two stones and crush them? Why do you want me to bite them?"
"If you crush it with stones, the medicinal juice will be lost." He Zhiran was obviously a little impatient.
Zhang Qing knew that for the sake of his boss's life, he had to chew the herb into pieces.
However, he didn't completely believe He Zhiran.
"You're not feeding me poisonous grass to get back at me for scolding you just now, are you?"
He Zhiran rolled his eyes. He didn't expect that this officer was so vigilant.
"If you're afraid, you don't have to do it. Your boss's life or death has nothing to do with me."
Seeing this, Zhou Laoba urged, "Zhang Qing, for the sake of the boss's life, you must listen to He's orders!"
Zhang Qing's face was wrinkled, and he looked like he was ready to die heroically.
Just as he was about to bring the gentian to his mouth, a young woman came running from the direction of the Li family.
"Sir, don't listen to He Zhiran. She doesn't know anything about medicine. Don't be fooled by her."
He Zhiran narrowed his eyes and looked at the person who came. After searching the original owner's memory, he found that he was indeed an acquaintance.
Li family's concubine's daughter - Li Rouer.
He Zhiran recognized her at a glance as the only person the original owner regarded as a good sister.
Moreover, the original owner was unwilling to marry into the Mo family, which had a lot to do with Li Rouer.
Li Rouer kept telling her that anyone who married into the Mo family would become a widow not long after entering the mansion.
Why should you become a widow at such a young age?
In short, every sentence in Li Rouer's conversation with the original owner was about widowhood.
This led to the original owner's fear of marrying into the Mohist school, which led to the incident where He Yuanming and his wife drugged her.
It can be said that the original owner’s death was directly related to Li Rouer.
Thinking of this, He Zhiran looked at Li Rouer with a sharper gaze. What's more, she came over to ruin her plan. How could this be what good sisters should do?
"Li Rou'er, since you say I don't know how to treat medicine, you will be the one to cure Mr. Peng's poison."
After He Zhiran finished speaking, he turned and left.
Li Rouer was stunned for a moment when faced with He Zhiran's attitude.
In the past, He Zhiran always obeyed her and had never been so tough with her.
He Zhiran now seems like a different person.
Could it be that she has thought it through and is willing to marry into the Mo family?
Just when Li Rouer was wondering in her heart, Zhou Laoba looked at her unhappily.
"Whose family are you from? Why are you here causing trouble?"
Li Rouer was scolded and quickly withdrew her thoughts.
"Sir, what I said is true. I've been with He Zhiran a lot, and I've never heard that she knows any medical skills. Don't let her fool you."
Seeing Li Rouer's confident words, the officers hesitated.
However, after seeing Peng Wang dying, they really had no idea what to do.
Especially in this remote area, it is impossible to find a doctor.
Several officers gathered together to discuss and finally decided to give it a try and continue to let He Zhiran help the boss detoxify.
Zhang Qing shouted towards He Zhiran's back, "Ms. He, come back and continue detoxifying."
He Zhiran stopped and turned around, his eyes fell on Li Rouer.
She said with a half-smile, "Li Rou'er said I don't know any medical skills. Your Excellency, aren't you afraid that I might kill someone with my medicine?"
Zhang Qing's face darkened when he heard this.
This time, his anger was directed at Li Rouer.
"How can you, a family member of a convicted official, have the right to speak here? I think you are really tired of living."
In order to vent his anger, Zhang Qing took out the whip from his waist and whipped Li Rouer hard before she could react.
"Ah..." Li Rouer screamed when she was beaten.
At the same time, a woman who looked to be in her thirties came running over from the Li family.
The woman trembled in front of Li Rouer and begged humbly.
"Sir, my daughter is ignorant. Please don't bear grudges against her."
Li Rouer was hit, and the burning pain reminded her all the time that all this was caused by He Zhiran.
If He Zhiran hadn't said those sarcastic words, how could the officers have beaten her?
He Zhiran could see from the corner of his eye that Li Rouer was glaring at him.
She rolled her eyes and said to Zhang Qing, "Sir, weren't you worried that this herb was poisonous?"
Zhang Qing didn't quite understand what she meant and nodded woodenly.
He Zhiran glanced at Li Rouer who was still angry.
"Actually, this herb is the same no matter who chews it."
Zhang Qing understood immediately and felt a little bit of admiration for He Zhiran.
This woman is quite smart. Why didn't he think of doing this?
Without hesitation, Zhang Qing handed the gentian to Li Rouer.
"I don't want to suffer any more, so I chewed this up."
Li Rouer was resisting in her heart, but she didn't dare to refute.
He could only put the gentian into his mouth in front of everyone with a wronged look on his face.
Her facial features, which were not beautiful to begin with, were suddenly tightened.
This medicine is too bitter...
Zhang Qing also swallowed a few mouthfuls of acid water that came up due to nausea as a conditioned reflex.
After chewing it and spitting the gentian into the palm of her hand, Li Rouer asked with a distorted expression.
"Sir, is this okay?"
Zhang Qing didn't understand either, so he motioned He Zhiran to go and check.
He Zhiran pretended to glance at the pile of disgusting green stuff in Li Rouer's hand.
He nodded reluctantly.
"That's it!"
After saying that, she didn't even look at everyone's expressions and came to Peng Wang again.
He Zhiran asked the officers to help roll up his trouser legs higher to fully expose the wound.
Ignoring everyone's gaze, she ripped off a corner of Peng Wang's clothes and turned to Zhang Qing, "I need some clean water."
Zhang Qing quickly took out the water bag from his waist and handed it to her.
He Zhiran soaked the corner of the clothes with water and then gently wiped Peng Wang's wound.
Although this was unhygienic, she couldn't get the alcohol cotton ball out of the space in front of so many people, so she could only deal with it temporarily.
