Chapter 299
But living in the East Wing for the past two days, Jiang Baoyu also discovered some interesting things.

There was an old woman who was crazy, never drank the medicinal soup brought by the nurse, and walked around the patient all day long.

She still picks flowers and picks grass at every turn. She doesn't know what to rub into it, kneads it into a ball, and puts it in her mouth to eat.

And the flowers and plants that I eat every day are not the same.

The disease is not getting better, and it is getting worse.

Jiang Baoyu felt that she really deserved it, how could she get better if she didn't take medicine?
Moreover, her attitude towards the doctor girl was not very good, and she would curse and say all kinds of ugly things when she moved.

Jiang Baoyu had only been here for three days, and she scolded and cried several medical girls who kindly persuaded her to drink medicine.

She couldn't hold back for a while, and persuaded: "Ma'am, you should take some medicine, it's not an ordinary disease, if you can't cure it, you won't be able to leave this Yunmen Temple, wouldn't it implicate other people in the temple?"

Unexpectedly, the old woman ignored her and continued to pick flowers and pinch grass around, crumpled them into balls and put them in her mouth, but she spit them out after a while.

Probably because her condition got worse, Jiang Baoyu also saw blood in her vomit.

"Ma'am, you won't succeed if you go on like this, you'd better be obedient and drink some medicinal soup."

While talking, the nurse brought Jiang Baoyu's soup and asked her to drink it while it was hot.

Jiang Baoyu was unprepared. After thanking the medical lady, he took the soup bowl and wanted to drink it.

The old woman grabbed her wrist, frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Baoyu saw that the old woman's eyes were hale and hearty, and her face was extremely sober, but she couldn't see the madness of the past few days, just thinking about her words and deeds, it was not the case.

"Auntie, are you confused? Didn't we all come here because we got an epidemic? What I'm drinking now is the decoction to cure the epidemic."

"nonsense!"

The old woman raised her eyebrows and looked at the doctor girl, and said plausibly: "Monk Liao Yuan is cowardly and dare not take risks. He has been giving patients licorice and dried ginger soup. Your soup has no licorice fragrance—"

As the old woman spoke, she grabbed the soup bowl from Jiang Baoyu's hand, took a sip, and immediately spat out: "There is no ginger spicy, but pinellia that irritates the throat!"

After the old woman finished speaking, she brought the soup bowl to her nose and smelled it again: "Look at this dose, there is a lot of it, it can't be overstated that it can directly poison people dumb."

As she spoke, she threw the soup bowl and the bowl of medicinal soup directly at the feet of the medical girl, staring at her eyes and asking, "Who sent you here? Why do you want to harm this little lady?"

Jiang Baoyu was also dumbfounded, poison dumb?
Who is going to hurt her?
The doctor woman was also quite frightened, but she quickly regained her strength and calmed down and said, "Don't talk nonsense, ignorant women. Doctors seek to prescribe the right medicine for the disease. On the sixth day, I had a cold and heat, her breasts were full of pain, and she didn't want to eat or drink. Therefore, presiding over Liao Yuan changed the prescription of Xiao Bupleurum Decoction for her, why not?"

Jiang Baoyu didn't understand medical principles, so he just felt that what the doctor said was logical, and there must be some truth, so he nodded along beside him.

Unexpectedly, the old woman chuckled and said, "Xiao Chaihu soup? Is there only pinellia in Xiao Chaihu soup? Where is Bupleurum? Where is Huangling? Not to mention licorice and ginger, you don't have any in this soup, so you can eat it." It’s because you haven’t even seen half a red date, you call this Xiaochaihu soup?”

The doctor girl was dumbfounded by what the old woman said, and her body almost froze, but fortunately, the old woman dropped the soup bowl in a fit of anger, and now that there is no proof of her death, she also played tricks and said: "I'm too lazy to argue with you, a crazy woman." !You spend your days picking flowers and grazing grass, living indiscriminately, how do you know what Bupleurum pinellia is?"

As she spoke, she bowed to Jiang Baoyu and said, "I missed Jiang Dianyi's medication, so my little girl will cook another bowl for you."

After the doctor girl finished speaking, she almost ran away, but the old woman pinched her waist and cursed: "It's so harmful! If you dare to come again, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for you to run away!"

If it were normal, one would have to know that someone was going to harm him, but Jiang Baoyu would not let him go so easily.

But now that these words come from a crazy old woman, and Jiang Baoyu has seen her go crazy these few days, it is really difficult to stand on her side emotionally.

So at this moment she just looked at the old woman in surprise and said, "Auntie knows medicine?"

"I don't understand, but I just happened to have treated a few people."

The old woman looked at Jiang Baoyu's face while talking, and suddenly pulled her wrist to get her pulse.

After a while she frowned and said, "How many days have you been drinking this medicine?"

Jiang Baoyu raised her eyebrows, she hadn't tasted the medicine just now after all, but she was indeed taking the medicine on time these days.

"About—three days?"

The old woman knew that Jiang Baoyu herself didn't know very well, so she suddenly grabbed the soup bowl from the person who was drinking the medicine, handed it to Jiang Baoyu and asked, "Try it, but it smells like this?"

Jiang Baoyu sniffed for a long time, but he couldn't feel any difference. Don't all medicines have such a bitter smell?

So she nodded and said, "Maybe?"

But she is also a little scared now, if what the old woman said is true, then someone really wants to kill her.

"Well, Madam suspects that there is something wrong with the soup and medicine I have been drinking these days? What should I do then?"

As soon as Jiang Baoyu thought of this, he felt that his throat was so swollen that it was really hard for him to speak, so he suddenly hoarse and said: "Then I won't really become dumb, right? This can't be done, I am On the body, it is best to use the most precious thing, but this mouth is the only one."

Looking at Jiang Baoyu's skinny appearance, the old woman subconsciously thought of a stinky girl who looked weak and disregarded her burden when she ran away from her back then. Her behavior was somewhat similar to the little girl in front of her.

She couldn't help ridiculing Jiang Baoyu and said: "It's a child who is poisonous and dumb, I'm afraid it's true that that person wants your life."

"Will my life?"

Jiang Baoyu was stunned.

If it's just poisonous and dumb, she just thought of Cui Youxiong.

But if he wanted her life, it would definitely not be Cui Youxiong.

After all, if he really wanted her dead, he could kill her to silence her that day when there was no one around, but he didn't do that.

The person who conspired with him before might really want her dead, but that person didn't know her existence.

But since it wasn't Cui Youxiong, who would it be?

However, Jiang Baoyu didn't even have time to think about this at this moment, she just knelt down in front of the old woman and said, "Ma'am, ah no—a miracle doctor, you can save me, I'm still so young, I don't want to see you so early Hades!"

Old woman: "..."

I haven't seen such a flexible little girl in my life for so long...

 The description of the symptoms described by the doctor in Xiaochaihu Decoction is quoted from Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases".
