Lu Yanzhou seemed to have read Lin Yunchu's thoughts. He turned his head and glanced at the people in the room. Then he leaned forward and said softly, "Shopkeeper Zhao said he was poisoned!"
Poisoning?
Lin Yunchu raised his head in disbelief and looked at Lu Yanzhou in confusion.
Who on earth is this person? Not only did he appear in such a remote village like Qingxi Village, but he also appeared in a remote and deserted mountain. If they hadn't been looking for bamboo shoots today, this person would have been in great danger.
"Luckily, the poison wasn't too severe, and I was bitten by a snake, so I've been unconscious ever since. The superficial injuries on my body were probably caused by bumping around along the way, but they're not serious."
The most important thing is that he was poisoned and bitten by a snake, and he was extremely tired, which is why he has been unconscious.
"Shopkeeper Zhao prescribed some medicine. After taking it, he should be able to wake up tomorrow. He just needs to rest for a few days."
Lu Yanzhou spoke calmly, but only he knew that if Manager Zhao had not arrived in time and had superb medical skills, what would have happened?
In addition, Lin Yunchu brought the dead snake found in the back mountain to the town, so he asked Manager Zhao to bring the necessary medicinal herbs. The man was probably in danger.
Fortunately, Lin Yunchu was careful, so there was no danger!
"Girl Yunchu, this is the medicine I prescribed. Take it for a few days and it will expel all the remaining toxins from his body."
Shopkeeper Zhao handed over the packaged medicine. Fortunately, when Lin Yunchu went to Jishiditang today, he explained the man's injuries clearly.
The medicine box prepared by Baiji happened to contain detoxification medicine, so there was no need to run back and forth to the town to get medicine.
After that, he handed over a small porcelain bottle and said, "This is for external wounds. Keep it. Now that everything is fine here, I can go back to town without any worries."
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Manager Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed when talking to Lin Yunchu.
"Okay, thank you Uncle Zhao. I'll have my brother take you back to town."
Lin Yunchu originally thought that if it was late today, he would let Manager Zhao stay here for one night and send him back to town tomorrow.
However, it is not dark yet, and Manager Zhao is afraid that he still has important things to do in the pharmacy, so he can ask the eldest brother to take him back.
As Lin Yunchu spoke, he took out two taels of silver and handed it to Manager Zhao.
Not only is Manager Zhao personally seeing the patient today, but the patient is also suffering from both poisoning and snake bites, so the medicine is probably not cheap. Just now, she saw that the small porcelain bottle that Manager Zhao gave her for treating external injuries was very exquisite.
Shopkeeper Zhao did not refuse. Even if he was familiar with Lin Yunchu and did not charge for the consultation, the medicine he had just used on the person inside was indeed not cheap.
The most important thing is that if he hadn't come in person today, this matter would have been difficult to handle. He accepted the two taels of silver for the medicine.
"Brother Yanzhou, you can take this medicine and boil it first. I'll send Uncle Zhao back and I'll make some chicken soup and bring it over tomorrow."
After rescuing him home, I'm afraid he can't bear the exhaustion. I'll make some delicious food tomorrow and send it to him to help him replenish his body so he can recover faster.
After sending Manager Zhao and Lin Yunchu out, he turned around and went back to boil the medicine.
Lin Yunchu told Lin Changting to send Manager Zhao back to town. If they hurried, they should be able to get back before dark.
Lin Changting looked up at the sky, nodded, and did not dare to delay. After Manager Zhao sat firmly on the ox cart, he rushed to the town.
Everyone in the Lin family knew nothing about what happened today, but they were a little surprised that Lin Changting had just returned from town and was going out again.
Lin Yunchu made up an excuse to shirk the responsibility. It was better for the Lin family not to know about this matter. She didn't even know the man's identity yet. After the man woke up and recovered, she would leave as if nothing had happened.
Lin Yunchu did not go to Lu's house at night. It was not convenient for her to go there at night. However, she kept thinking about this matter in her heart. She lay down for a long time before falling asleep in a daze.
The next morning, everyone in the Lin family was busy with their own work. Lin Yunchu looked at the chicken in the kitchen that Lin Changting had helped to prepare last night.
After chopping the meat and putting it in a large bowl, Lin Yunchu started boiling water in a pot, intending to make some chicken soup first and send it to the Lu family later.
This chicken soup needs to be simmered slowly over low heat. If you simmer it now, it will be ready to be served at noon.
After the fire started, Lin Yunchu got up and went back to the house to grab a handful of mushrooms that he had dried and stored earlier. He soaked them first and then stewed them with chicken soup. It was the best way to nourish the body.
By noon, the chicken soup in the pot was ready. Lin Yunchu carefully skimmed off the oil and water, put it into a lunch box, and rushed to the Lu family.
"The man woke up, but he just said that he accidentally walked into the bamboo forest in the back mountain. He didn't say much else." As soon as Lu Yanzhou saw Lin Yunchu, he told him about the man's waking up.
He knew it was just a perfunctory remark, but as long as the man didn't cause any trouble to the village, it would be fine. He also said that he would leave on his own after he recovered in a few days.
He thanked him and Lin Yunchu for saving him, and took out a silver note of one hundred taels as a thank you gift.
Lu Yanzhou naturally did not accept it. They could not just stand by and watch the man die, so they rescued him. They did not think about taking any benefits, not to mention that it was a hundred taels of silver.
Hearing that the man was willing to spend a hundred taels of silver at once, Lin Yunchu widened his eyes in shock. Could this man be some high-ranking official? He was willing to spend a hundred taels of silver at once.
She has been busy for so long but hasn't saved so much money. It seems that the man is from a prominent family.
But the way he said it clearly showed that he didn't want to reveal his true identity. So just pretend you don't know about it. Once he recovers and leaves, the matter will naturally be resolved.
"But I don't want the banknote."
Seeing Lin Yunchu's money-obsessed look, Lu Yanzhou held his forehead and quickly explained.
"From the way he talked and his demeanor, I could tell he wasn't like an ordinary person. He said he would leave after a few days when he felt better."
That one hundred taels is not a small amount. In Qingxi Village, one hundred taels is enough for a family to use for many years. We cannot accept this money.
Upon hearing what Lu Yanzhou said, the light in Lin Yunchu's eyes dimmed instantly. Although she knew in her heart that she could not take the silver, she still felt a little regretful in her heart.
Forget it, Lin Yunchu sighed, and decided to send in the chicken soup he had just cooked this morning. It would probably get cold soon.
After entering the woodshed, Lin Yunchu realized that Lu Yanzhou had tidied up the room a little bit and it was no longer as messy as before.
I saw that the man had woken up at this time, and was half leaning on the bed, holding a book in his hand and reading it.
I didn't expect that he could read. It seems that he was really a son of a wealthy family. There were not many educated people at that time.
When they saw the door open, the three of them met eyes, and the room suddenly became quiet, without a sound.
