Chapter 267: Chapter 249, Trust_1
Daohua and her group arrived at the Xing Courtyard at noon, and that sa afternoon, Xiao Yeyang moved into the courtyard where Yan Wenkai was staying, while Yan Wenxiu and Wentao, who were not ill, moved to another courtyard.
Xiao Yeyang’s condition had already beco quite serious, these past few days he was sustaining himself on the dicine that Daohua had brought earlier.
On the way here, he had another bout of diarrhea, and at this mont, his complexion was sowhat pale.
After examining his condition, Daohua turned around and went out to prepare the dicine.
After a good while, Daohua ca over with a bowl of dicine.
Just as she was about to step into the room, Xiao Yeyang hurriedly stopped her, “Don’t co in here. This epidemic is too contagious. Despite my strict precautions, I still got infected. You… you mustn’t get infected too.”
Daohua paused, looking at the determination and concern in Xiao Yeyang’s eyes, and ultimately handed the bowl of dicine to De Fu.
De Fu took the bowl of dicine and asked, “Miss Yan, this dicine is?”
Daohua thought for a mont and said cautiously, “I once saw a few prescriptions for treating the epidemic while reading dical Books. Just now, after examining Xiao Yeyang’s symptoms, I used one of those prescriptions.”
Hearing that Daohua had a prescription for treating the epidemic, Xiao Yeyang and De Fu were both pleased.
However, the smile on De Fu’s face faded quickly, and he looked at the bowl of dicine in his hands with so hesitation, “Miss Yan, doesn’t that an you don’t know the effects of the prescription?”
Daohua looked down and didn’t speak. She certainly knew the effects, but the reason was hard to explain. She couldn’t outright say that it was a prescription verified over several generations.
Now, De Fu didn’t dare to give the dicine to his master.
What if the prescription for the epidemic that Miss Yan read was fake, and after the master took this dicine, not only did the condition fail to improve, but it actually got worse?
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, held his stomach, stood up, took the dicine from De Fu’s hands, and drank it down in one go.
“Master!” exclaid De Fu, his face changing.
After drinking the dicine, Xiao Yeyang handed the bowl back to De Fu, frowning as he looked at Daohua, “It’s so bitter!”
Daohua’s eyes flashed, “Aren’t you afraid it will upset your stomach?”
Xiao Yeyang sat back down on the bed, “Anyway, I’m already in this state, how much worse can it get?” As he said this, he paused for a mont, then deeply looked at Daohua.
“I trust you.”
Daohua raised an eyebrow, “Hm?”
Xiao Yeyang, “You ca all this way in such great danger, it couldn’t possibly have been to deliver a useless recipe.”
Daohua smiled, “You do understand quite well!” Then she turned to De Fu, who wore a worried expression, “Don’t worry, at most the dicine won’t work, but it won’t harm anyone.”
De Fu gave a wry smile.
Xiao Yeyang rubbed his stomach; he wasn’t sure if it was psychological, but he felt like the pain had lessened. After a mont of thought, he stood up again.
“What are you doing?” Daohua imdiately asked.
Xiao Yeyang, “I’m going out for another walk, to put those who are watching at ease.”
Daohua wouldn’t have it and said to De Fu, “Quickly help your master back to bed to lie down.”
De Fu hesitated, looking at Xiao Yeyang, then back at Daohua.
Although he also wished for his master to rest, he didn’t dare to order his master around as Miss Yan did.
Seeing that Xiao Yeyang remained standing, Daohua had no choice but to say, “The prescription I gave you truly is for treating the epidemic. Both my fourth brother and you have taken the dicine; by tonight or tomorrow morning, we will know if it has an effect.”
“Don’t you feel very sleepy right now?”
Xiao Yeyang nodded; he did indeed feel his head was rather groggy.
Daohua, “That’s right, the dicine is taking effect.”
The dicine for her fourth brother and Xiao Yeyang was all from the plants in her space; its effectiveness was several tis better than that found outside.
Daohua then continued, “You don’t need to worry about what’s happening outside, either. I’m here, and I’ll keep watch for you. Rest easy, take a good rest tonight, and the sky won’t fall.”
Xiao Yeyang stared at Daohua, feeling the tension that had been constant lately quietly easing.
Seeing that his master did not object, Defu imdiately helped him to the bed.
Xiao Yeyang was indeed exhausted and, once in bed, slowly fell asleep.
Seeing this, Defu’s face lit up with joy, and he whispered to Daohua, “The master has fallen asleep! He hasn’t had a good night’s sleep in quite so ti because of stomach pains.”
After hearing this, Daohua sighed to herself, thinking how strong-willed this fellow was to still be toughing it out like that.
“Keep an eye on him for . I’m going to see how Brother Dong is doing. Call imdiately if anything happens!”
…
“Sister Dong, why are you here too?”
As Dong Yuanxuan was moving over, Daohua saw Dong Yuanyao, and surprise was written all over her face.
Dong Yuanyao looked sowhat exhausted and glanced at Daohua, saying, “If you can co, why can’t I?”
Daohua shook her head, “I didn’t an that. I was just surprised to see you here.”
Dong Yuanyao showed understanding. Upon hearing about Yan Yiyi coming, she too had been surprised. She then asked, “How are the Little Prince and your fourth brother doing?”
Daohua: “They’ve both settled down to sleep. Now that you’re here, please tell about Brother Dong’s condition in as much detail as possible so I can prepare the right dicine for him.”
Dong Yuanyao looked at Daohua hesitantly and said, “Do you really know dical skills?”
Daohua repeated the words she had said to Xiao Yeyang earlier.
Dong Yuanyao frowned, “Isn’t this just ssing around? How can you give people unverified prescriptions? What if it makes things worse?”
Upon hearing this, Daohua fell silent.
Seeing Dong Yuanyao’s disapproving face and thinking of Xiao Yeyang, who had not hesitated much before taking the dicine, Daohua suddenly felt moved.
Xiao Yeyang really trusted her!
“Sister Dong, if you have doubts, then let’s wait. If my brother and Xiao Yeyang show improvent after taking the dicine I prepared, then we can consider giving it to Brother Dong, alright?”
Dong Yuanyao hesitated for a mont. Her older brother was already in a coma, yet she still dared not administer any dicine rashly. Thinking it’s just a night’s wait, she nodded her head.
anwhile, Defu, not daring to gamble with Xiao Yeyang’s health, imdiately sent for the Imperial Physician as soon as Daohua left.
Looking at Xiao Yeyang lying deeply asleep on the bed, the Imperial Physician went straight to take his pulse. After a mont, he asked Defu excitedly.
“What dicine did the Little Prince take? Quick, show it to .”
Seeing the Imperial Physician’s reaction, Defu got the hint, “The dicine was prepared by Miss Yan herself, and she made it personally; I’m unaware of its contents. Imperial Physician, is there anything wrong with the master?”
The Imperial Physician sighed with relief and said, “The Little Prince’s condition has improved. If this continues, it shouldn’t be long before he makes a full recovery.”
Defu was elated, “Really?”
The Imperial Physician nodded and then added, “What exactly is the deal with the Yan Family girl? Tell everything quickly.”
Defu promptly repeated Daohua’s words.
After listening, the Imperial Physician fell silent for a while, then stood up, “Co on, take to see Yan Wenxiu. If his condition has also improved, then it’s likely the prescription is genuine.”
At that mont, Daohua was in the courtyard instructing Wang Manman how to brew the dicine.
Though the recipe would only be disclosed once Xiao Yeyang and her fourth brother’s conditions improved, preparing so dicinal soup in advance to alleviate the symptoms of other patients in the house was feasible.
There were too many sick people outside, and she didn’t have the capacity to treat each one individually, but she could save those within the house.
Because of Xiao Yeyang’s situation, the residence had drawn a lot of attention. If the people in the house’s conditions improved, those outside could perhaps see hope as well.
