Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 354



~ MU YUNYAO’S DISCOVERY ~

The Second Madam’s fingers suddenly trembled as she raised her head to look at Mu Yunyao in bewilderment. “But … The Imperial Physician said that sweating was good for Su You....”

Mu Yunyao smiled slightly, her eyes calmly looking at the Second Madam, “Then after the Imperial Physician has treated Elder Sister Su You for so many years, has Elder Sister’s condition improved by a lot?”

The Second Madam slowly clenched her fist, the glint in her eyes becoming more and more pronounced. “I’ve invited quite a few doctors, and they all said that....”

“Second Aunt is in the backyard of the residence, so you must understand that no matter who it is, every people understands the principle of protecting their own life. Even if an ordinary doctor saw what the Imperial Physician had determined, would he retort rashly?”

“Yun… Yunyao.” The Second Madam’s face suddenly paled. If … If what Mu Yunyao said was true, then for so long, she felt that it was all for the sake of her daughter, but in reality, she was harming her. “Yunyao, you know medicine? Is what you said true?”

Mu Yunyao stretched out her hand to pull the back of Su You away a bit, then walked to the window and opened the window to let the smell in the room dissipate. “Elder Sister Su You’s foundation is bad, but after so many years of adjusting it, it should have more or less solidified. But instead, she still continued to grow weaker and weaker. Could it be that Second Aunt have not thought about the reason for this?”

The Second Madam watched Mu Yunyao’s movements, and her footsteps hesitated for a moment, but she did not speak to stop her. “I … I’ll get a thinner quilt.”

Seeing that she believed him, a smile appeared on Mu Yunyao’s lips. She stepped forward and touched Su You’s forehead, “Second Aunt, please get someone to prepare some hot water. Elder Sister Su You is covered in sweat and wearing wet clothes, so she must be extremely uncomfortable. It’s better to scrub her slightly and change into dry clothes.”

“Alright.”

The Second Madam nodded and slightly staggered when she walked out. About a quarter of an hour later, she personally carried the blanket into the room. After going out, her expression was much calmer than before. But her eyes were slightly red as if she had been crying.

Not long after, hot water was brought in. The Second Madam ordered the maids to retreat and personally wiped Su You’s body. Mu Yunyao helped from the side. Looking at the Second Madam’s skillful movements, it seemed like she had taken good care of Su You.

It was also why Mu Yunyao dared to reveal her medical skills in front of the Second Madam. Su You’s body was so weak, even if you called the hospital over, the chances of being rescued wouldn’t be much higher than hers. As long as the Second Madam wants to let Su you live longer, she wouldn’t reveal her medical skills. After helping Su You clean up and change into clean clothes, the Second Madam heaved a sigh of relief and gently covered Su You with a blanket: “Yunyao, I don’t know what to say, and I don’t know why you know so much about medicine. But I swear to you here that as long as you do your best to save Su You, I will do my best to repay you!

“The Second aunt, there’s no need to do this. Elder Sister Su You took care of me quite well. If I could help, I would naturally not stand by and watch. It’s just that....” Mu Yunyao’s expression carried some hesitation.

The Second Madam said quickly: “Please don’t worry. I’ll keep my mouth shut about You’er’s treatment, and I’ll find a way to get any medicine that you need. This time, when you go to Autumn Hunt, you can rest assured to leave sister Su Qing in residence. When you come back, sister Su Qing will be unharmed.”

Mu Yunyao shook her head, “That’s not what I want to say. But for Second Aunt to have such thoughts, Yunyao will be forever grateful.”

“Then, why did you looked hesitant on your face earlier? Did you have any worries?” Since it was related to Su You, the Second Madam would always think the worst things. Seeing Mu Yunyao deny it, her expression became even more anxious.

“Second aunt, have you ever thought about why Elder Sister Su You’s condition is worse today?”

“When I was pregnant with Su You, my womb was unstable. From the beginning of the pregnancy to the time I gave birth, I have to take medicine. I waited for the child to be born with great difficulty, but I didn’t expect her to be so weak and sickly. To be able to raise You’er until now, it was all due to my constantly on tenterhooks....”

As Second Madam spoke, she suddenly stopped talking. Looking at Mu Yunyao’s smiling expression, it was as if layers of dense fog had blown away from her heart, revealing a muddy, dark, and mottled, bloody truth. “Yunyao, do you mean something?”

Mu Yunyao gently pressed Su You’s wrist, carefully taking her pulse, “Actually, children may look fragile. But they are just like the crops in the fields. The seedlings may have experienced drought, waterlogging, grow chlorosis. But if they were taken care of carefully, they would still grow healthy and strong later. So, they are no different from those good seedlings.”

“Then why… why did my You’er....” The Second Madam’s entire body was trembling because the guess in her heart was too frightening, causing her lips to twitch in nervousness, and her words were a little difficult to speak. “Yunyao, tell me, did you discover something?”

Mu Yunyao placed Su You’s wrist under the embroidered quilt and indicated to Second Madam to come to the outer room. “I won’t hide it from Second Aunt. Previously, when I was in contact with Elder Sister Su You, I accidentally helped her take her pulse. The reason why she’s so weak is that her innate ability is lacking. What’s the more important reason is that she has not been well nurtured properly. Although she has eaten quite a few tonics, very few of them can actually heal her body. On the contrary, because she drank too much of the medicine and accumulated lot of poison, making her already fragile body more overwhelmed.”

“Poison?” The Second Madam’s eyes widened slightly as she tightly held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand. “Is what you said true?”

Mu Yunyao nodded her head, “Since I’ve exposed my medical skills, I naturally want to do my best to keep Elder Sister Su You safe. I hope Second Aunt can believe what I’ve said and follow my orders to help Elder Sister Su You recuperate.”

The Second Madam gritted her teeth and nodded heavily. “Alright, I’ll believe you. From today onwards, ou can do whatever you want to do to help Su You recuperate!”

“In that case, you don’t need to use the medicine that you just gave Elder Sister Su You. There is a taste of Pinellia ternata in the decoction, which has not been processed. Raw Pinellia ternata is poisonous, and even ordinary people would not be able to bear it, not to mention big sister Su You. ”

“Pinellia ternata....” After Su You being ill for a long time, the Second Madam becoming a good doctor, so she also knew about this medicine. The doctor that came to help Su You treat also said that because of her cough and phlegm, she had put some ginger and Pinellia in the medicine to suppress the cough and dissolve the phlegm. “Yunyao, are you sure you didn’t see wrongly? I… It’s not that I don’t believe you. It’s just that a doctor must have know that there’s poison in Pinellia ternata....”

“I can confirm that the medicine does contain raw Pinellia ternata. If Second Aunt doesn’t believe me, you can get someone to find the herb dregs and disguise as an ordinary person to bring them to the medicine shop to ask, and you will know it after a test.”

“Why…? Those medicinal herbs were all good ones? Why would there be a raw Pinellia ternata mixed in with them?” The Second Madam suppressed the anger in her heart with all her might. At this moment, her voice was a bit hoarse, and the light in her eyes flickered with hatred. “Su You is just a girl. She is poor in health, and her appearance is not very outstanding. Could it be that there’s someone in residence can’t tolerate her?” Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes slightly. “This is also something that I can’t figure out no matter how much I think about it....”
