Chapter 399
Seeing how solemn she was, Cheng Xue chuckled and waved her hand.

"Relax, don't be so nervous. Your master is not made of clay, and he is not that fragile. Remember to go back and ask a doctor to come over and diagnose your pulse. If you are sick, you can treat him. If you are not sick, you can strengthen your health."

"Yes, the slave has written it down."

When the matter was settled, Baizhu quickly ate the five pies and turned around to go out.No matter how Cheng Xue said "not in a hurry", it would not help.

When the two sisters Li Yue came back from delivering the meal, they were startled when they saw someone leaving in a hurry.

"Mom, what's wrong with Bai Shu?"

"It's okay. Mom asked her to hitch the carriage and send you, your father, and Si Dan back home later. How is your father's side? Are you still chatting?"

Li Tian ignored his mother's last question, but followed the previous question:
"Just the three of us? Where are eldest sister, eldest brother, and brother Yixin? Won't they go?"

"Well, I won't go back." Cheng Xue nodded, "They have to stay and help. You too, you have a mission when you go back. Not only do you have to keep an eye on Si Dan, but you also have to take care of your father. Remember not to let your father go to the Yamen to work. He is still weak."

Before Li Tian could even say his refusal, he was given the "task" assigned by his mother.

Children are like this. If you give her something to do, she will be very obedient.

"Don't worry, Mom, I will definitely take good care of my dad."

"Be good, come and eat."

Bai Zhi looked at the delighted second lady, picked up the pie and put it into her bowl without saying a word.After all, I'm still young, so I can't even hear such obviously coaxing words. It's really funny.

After lunch, Cheng Xue sent Master Li Hui onto the carriage.Even though Li Huai didn't want to leave, with his second sister in charge, he had to leave.Cheng Xue deliberately ignored the little guy's "accusing" look and just told Li Tian to take good care of his father and teach his younger brother.Li Tian who gained power was like getting a sword from the Supreme Court, not to mention how majestic it was.

Li Hui looked at his triumphant little daughter and suddenly felt an unwanted sense of success.He usually looks very shrewd when he teaches his younger brother, but why is it that his mother has given him some ecstasy soup and he doesn't know what's going on?
"...Don't be in a daze, go home and cultivate yourself, and remember to listen to your daughter."

Li Hui, who was suddenly cueed, came to his senses and nodded to his wife, promising:
"Okay, okay, listen to the second lady and make sure to take a good rest at home."

Seeing how perfunctory he was, Cheng Xue urged Baizhu to drive away with confidence.He is not a fool. He is better at establishing a character and solidifying his reputation than she is.Although doing this is a bit opportunistic, in a city that is completely ruined and lying flat, only doing this can mobilize people's enthusiasm faster and better.

After watching the carriage go away, she arranged for everyone to go back to their rooms to rest.

"While the people who suppressed the bandits on the mountain haven't come back, hurry up and take a nap. We'll be busy when the wounded come back later."

"Yes." Bai Guo and others did not dare to neglect, saluted and left.

Li Yue glanced in the direction of Mopan Mountain and said with some worry:

"Mom, Tiedan went up the mountain to pick up Master Wen and hasn't come back yet. Is everything going to be okay?"

A stick of incense is enough to make sense. Even if he stayed on the mountain for lunch before returning, he should have arrived by now.

After she reminded her like this, Cheng Xue was shocked in her heart. Then she looked at Bai Wei and said:

"Go and call Yongxi, and you will accompany me up the mountain to pick up the young master. Tangtang and Yixin should stay home and stay home to watch the fire. Don't let the water get cold."

"But mother..."

Before Li Yue could finish speaking, Yan Yixin touched him with his elbow and stopped him.

"Don't worry, Auntie, Tangtang and I will take good care of this place."

Cheng Xue nodded in relief and left in a hurry.The moment the courtyard door closed, Li Yue finally couldn't help complaining——

"Brother Yixin, why are you stopping me! Dad is not here, and my mother is going to the mountain alone..."

"Someone has to take care of the house." Yan Yixin reminded him in a stable mood.

Compared with the past when she accommodated others and always gave in, now she could express her thoughts openly, which made him very happy.

"I know you're anxious, but no matter how anxious you are, you can't ignore priorities. Don't forget, you and your aunt are here to treat the wounded soldiers."

Li Yue suddenly became quiet when he heard this, nodded with a shameful "hmm", and pulled his sleeves out.I had checked the cauldrons in other houses in the village before lunch. Now it was more than an hour and I had to look at them again...

……

At the foot of Mopan Mountain, Cheng Xue was spinning in circles anxiously.

She had just learned that there was poisonous gas in the mountain, and her son and Wen Tian were both in the mountain. She really wished she could grow wings and fly there.

"Don't worry, madam. The coach and others are in the mountains. There must be antidote pills in the military camp. If not, the maid has a few pills here, which will definitely detoxify the poison in the eldest young master and Master Wen."

Of course, as long as the poisonous gas isn't too sharp.

When Cheng Xue heard this, she slowly adjusted her mentality.Once a person relaxes and his mind clears up, he realizes something is wrong.

"I'm sorry, Master Jun. Let me ask you something. When my master was knocked unconscious, was he on the mountain or down the mountain?"

"Oh, Mrs. Li, please don't say that. I don't dare to call you 'jun lord'. My name is Tian Mao. Mr. Li was on the mountain when the accident happened, but he stayed there for a short time, so he must be fine."

Having said this, the soldier looked around and then came forward and whispered:

"To be honest with Mrs. Li, there are many blacksmiths detained on the mountain. Most of them have ulcers and pus on their faces, and it is said that they also have pus on their bodies, which is scary. The reason why our coach did not come down is because he was afraid of bringing the poisonous gas down the mountain."

Should it be said or not, Xiao Song's consciousness is really high.

"In addition to the blacksmith being poisoned, what about the gangsters in the mountains? How are they doing?"

"There's nothing wrong with them." Tian Mao replied with a slight smile, "They were all escorted away. I guess they have the antidote. They haven't been tried yet. They have to be detained for a few days to poke at their spirits."

Cheng Xue looked up at the trees that had not been destroyed by the bombing. Although it was winter, the redwoods and pines grew tall and straight. If they were really poisonous, they would not grow like this.

Thinking of this, she took out her handkerchief, covered her mouth and nose and said:

"That's it, Tian Mao, you lead people to collect some mugwort poles, and after gathering them, burn them along the way up the mountain. mugwort has functions such as clearing away heat, detoxifying and exorcising evil spirits. Yongxi will follow me up the mountain now, and Bai Wei will go back and get my medicine box. "

"This is not possible, Mrs. Li, you can't..."

"There's nothing I can't do. I know medical skills, otherwise your coach wouldn't be able to let me come over. Do as I say, quickly!"

After Cheng Xue finished speaking, he ordered Bai Wei to bring the veil to Yongxi, and after he had covered his mouth and nose, they hurried up the mountain.Bai Wei did not dare to waste time and urged Tian Mao to hurry up. She took a horse nearby, jumped up and galloped towards the village.

Fortunately, she had antidote pills, otherwise she would have been able to stop Madam from taking risks at any cost.

He went back to the village and dismounted, hanging the reins on the gate post, and went back to the house to get his things.Li Yue and Yan Yixin were simply not here, otherwise she would have to make up lies to fool them.The eldest lady is easy to fool, but Master Xin is... a little difficult.
