I suddenly received such a big bow from an elder.
Lin Yan was startled.
He quickly stood up and helped her up from the ground.
"Madam, you flatter me. I only have a superficial understanding of this, and I cannot guarantee that I can save your son. However, given his current condition, I have no choice but to try anything, even if it seems hopeless. If you mind..."
"No problem at all! He's been unconscious for days, hasn't had a drop of water, and looks like he's about to die. Please give it a try!"
Fearing that she might have reservations, Madam Xie dared not delay for even a second.
They agreed to her request.
She must hold on to any sliver of hope that might save her son.
Since the patient's family doesn't mind, things will be much easier from here on out.
Lin Yan took out the ginseng she had picked earlier from her basket and handed it to Madam Xie.
"Cut this ginseng in half. Boil one half into a half-bowl of soup to feed him later. Cut the other half into small pieces and have him hold one in his mouth each day to keep him breathing. I'll come back tomorrow to set his bones. Remember to make sure he eats something these next few days, rice porridge or egg soup is fine. If he can't eat, force-feed him. There's no rush to detoxify him. I'll do it once I've gathered all the necessary herbs. Fortunately, this poison is just a common, slow-acting poison, not a rare one, otherwise I wouldn't be able to help him."
Madam Xie held the small ginseng root with reverence in both hands.
She bit her pale lips hard to keep from bursting into tears!
Back in the capital, even the smallest ginseng root in the mansion was much bigger than this.
But now...
But she needed this tiny ginseng root to prolong her son's life...
The precious medicinal herbs that were brought from the manor were used up long ago on the way to exile.
It was because she kept her son alive with medicine that he didn't die on the way to exile.
After the medicinal herbs ran out, the daughter-in-law took out fifty taels of silver that she had secretly hidden and used it to buy medicine for her son.
Now they have almost no money left...
Her son also couldn't be saved.
As her breathing grew weaker and weaker, she felt like her world was collapsing.
From heaven to hell.
She experienced the harsh realities of life. Former friends treated them like the plague.
Yet this complete stranger, a farm girl, was willing to give her all she had for a complete stranger.
In that instant, she could no longer hold back her tears.
Choking back tears, he bowed deeply to Lin Yan:
"Young lady, our Xie family will never forget your great kindness!"
Lin Yan quickly helped her up.
She dared not accept such a generous gift!
After all, Xie Muqing's current coma was partly due to her "contribution"...
Although he was the one who wanted to kill her first.
But she couldn't remember whether the original owner of this body had ever done anything to hurt him.
Not knowing the truth, she couldn't directly blame him.
Dislocations are much easier to fix than bone setting.
After resetting Xie Muqing's broken arm, Lin Yan bid them farewell.
When she got home, Ye Lan had already cooked a pot of dumplings.
Looking at the pot of plump white dumplings, Lin Yan's mind flashed back to the thin, sallow faces of the Xie family members. She said apologetically:
"Mom, I'll have to trouble you to cook another pot. I'll take this pot of dumplings to the neighbors; they're all women, and it's not easy for them."
“Take it as you like. Mother is not tired, daughter is. If it weren’t for your hard work hunting and earning money, we would only be able to eat dumplings once a year during the New Year.”
Ye Lan put all the dumplings from the pot into a basin the size of a washbasin, and then put it into a basket.
I watched my daughter leave with a mixture of relief and heartache.
Lin Yan knocked on the Xie family's door again.
He took the dumplings out of the basket and handed them to Mrs. Xie.
"My dad is coming home today, and my mom specially made cabbage and pork crackling dumplings. She accidentally cooked too many, so you should eat them while they're hot, otherwise they'll stick together and won't taste good."
"girl……"
Faced with the enthusiastic Mrs. Xie, Lin Yan felt extremely embarrassed and guilty.
After delivering the dumplings, she left in a hurry.
Madam Xie looked at the bowl of dumplings on the table with teary eyes, desperately trying to hold back the tears that were about to spill.
There were a lot of dumplings.
She divided the dumplings equally, giving five to each adult and three to each child.
Each person's bowl contained plump, white dumplings.
The children's eyes lit up when they saw the dumplings!
After all, they had only been able to eat dry rations for several months of exile and had long forgotten what dumplings tasted like.
But even when they are hungry, they still respect basic manners.
Seeing that Madam Xie had started eating, they all picked up their chopsticks and began to eat dumplings.
But after taking one bite, their eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but exclaim how delicious it was.
"Grandma, Mom, the dumplings smell so good!"
"Yes, it smells very good..."
Madam Xie took a bite of the plump white dumpling with tears in her eyes.
The rich aroma of pork cracklings spread in her mouth, successfully arousing her hunger.
Back when we lived in the Marquis's mansion, the servants would never eat food like pork cracklings.
She used to not even glance at it.
Now that I'm eating it, I never knew it was so delicious!
Wang picked up a dumpling from her bowl and gave it to Xie Yixuan. When she tried to give one to Xie Ding, Xie Li stopped her.
There was an extra dumpling in her bowl.
"Auntie, these dumplings are big, they can't eat many of them. You should eat them yourself. It's not often that we get to eat dumplings."
"Okay, I'll eat it."
Wang smiled and took the dumplings, then began to eat them.
Wang's appearance was not particularly outstanding.
However, because she had served Xie Erye closely since childhood, their relationship was extraordinary.
