Chapter 42 Someone got poisoned after eating chicken

"Forget it. What if others can't see you and they step on you to death?"

"Hey, you're feeling sorry for me?"

"Of course not. I love our daughter the most." Such corny words almost made me sick to death.

While we were trying to figure out whether what I said was true, the door was suddenly pushed open and the man came in aggressively.

"Who is this person? I have never seen him before."

"She's so fierce, I want to touch her." Nannan snuggled into my arms and poked her head out to look at us.

"When the doctors saw the visitors, they became even more nervous, and several of them were about to kneel down.

He continued to walk forward, and the crowd automatically made way for him.

"Nannan, this is the aura of a rich person."

"How do you know he's rich?"

I rolled my eyes at Nannan and didn't want to pay any attention to her. How could this girl be stupid one moment and smart the next?

When the man saw his sister's condition, he turned around and yelled at the doctors.

"What happened to my sister? Why hasn't she woken up yet? If my sister can't wake up, you won't be able to get out alive!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people in the row next to the man knelt down first, followed by all the doctors, except Zi Fu.

"No, Nannan, I want to go over and help."

I quietly walked behind Zi Fu. Those heads were almost kissing the ground, and that man didn't pay any attention to this side.

I put away the knife and put my hand on Zi Fu's shoulder. Zi Fu was also startled when she saw me, and I gave her a look to reassure her.

"Why did you come out? Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

"Didn't you notice that the man was about to blame Zi Fu? Hong Dou is a coward, so I have to come."

"Le Le, what did you say?" Zi Fu must have heard me and Nan Nan mumbling and thought I was talking to her. I shook my head and said nothing.

Our small voice also attracted the man's attention. He looked at us, probably not knowing who we were.

I protected Zi Fu and looked at that man with great momentum. This action of mine irritated that man even more.

"Which clinic's apprentice are you from? Get out of the way!"

"How dare you! Behind me is Master Shen Jing's wife. You are not allowed to desecrate her."

I felt someone pulling my sleeve from behind, and Zi Fu stood up.

"Don't be rude."

"Yes." I obediently retreated to Zi Fu's side and held her arm.

"Sir, it sounds like you are this young lady's elder brother. As the eldest brother, why would you embarrass these doctors? This happened in the Shen Mansion, I will definitely do my best."

"I was rude just now. It turns out that this is Mr. Shen's wife. I have heard that Mr. Shen's wife is Li Zhiyi's daughter. I have also heard of Doctor Li's superb medical skills. It is really an honor to meet his daughter today."

The man bowed after he finished speaking, sounding rather servile. He looked like a decent human being but was actually a little puppy, but why did he speak in such a servile manner? It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance.

Zi Fu didn't say anything, but smiled and nodded gently, "Since Dr. Li's daughter is here, what do we need these quacks for? Get lost now."

Those doctors were rushing to get out of the door without stopping, crawling and tumbling, as if there were millions of gold and silver outside the door.

"I forgot to introduce myself. I am from the Palace Front Department of Kunnu City. My surname is Bai and my given name is Yunhe. I am a warrior. I hope you can forgive me for offending Madam. It's nothing. I won't disturb Madam Shen from treating my sister."

Then he left the room, "Zi Fu, look at him. If he can't be cured, it will be your fault."

"Okay, Lele, the incident happened in the Shen Mansion, and I'm the daughter of a famous doctor. It's only a matter of time before I have to deal with it."

Hongdou said angrily, "Madam, that person did it on purpose."

Zi Fu also sighed and continued to feel Miss Bai's pulse, "How is it, Zi Fu?"

"The pulse is very strange. I have never encountered this before in my years of practicing medicine."

"Zi Fu, relax. I'll go prepare some tea. Hong Dou, take good care of the girl and don't let anyone bully her."

"Yes, girl."

I saw Hongdou agreed, and as soon as she went out, I anxiously asked how Nannan was doing, she must have observed it just now.

"She does have my poison in her body, but it hasn't taken effect. Her current state is something else."

"How could that be? I clearly heard those people say that they drank chicken soup. The only chicken soup we had was the one we had last night."

"Could it be that the little cook has just made it?"

"Impossible. It takes her at least an hour to cook chicken soup. It's only been a while now."

I went to the kitchen to see what was going on. As soon as I reached the door, I saw the young cook absent-mindedly making fire. She didn't even notice the obvious burnt smell.

"It's a mess, the food is a mess!"

"Ah, it's blurry."

The young cook tried to save the pot of food in a panic, but failed. "No more, no more!"

She angrily threw the lid aside. I cleaned the pot and started to add oil to cook.

"What's wrong? Is it because of Miss Bai's matter?"

"Who is Miss Bai?"

"Who else could it be, the person in the backyard?"

"How come it's so strange that I heated up the chicken soup in a pot and it became unbearable after I drank it."

"Didn't Mrs. Jiang blame you?"

"Mrs. Jiang is such a clear-headed person. I just didn't wake up yet. When I woke up, I went out to buy groceries."

"Hey, what about the bird's nest?"

"She ate the whole pot, all at once. I thought there would be some left." The little cook pouted in dissatisfaction.

"So is this about eating chicken soup or bird's nest?"

"How would I know? When I came back, the bird's nest was gone. The pot was full of traces of having been used. There was still a little bit of base in the pot, which was chicken soup."

I cooked the dishes and put them on the table, waiting for someone to come and take them. "Okay, don't be sad. My daughter has gone for treatment. She is Dr. Li's daughter. There is nothing she can't cure."

The little cook leaned against me, mumbling with tears in her eyes, "Le Le, why do you think my life is so miserable?"

Then she started to cry, "Okay, okay, don't cry, our little cook is the best and the most obedient."

I stroked the cook's hair like I was coaxing a baby.

"I didn't cry, there was sand in my eyes."

The little cook came out of my arms stubbornly and said, "Okay, okay, there's a big piece of sand in my eye."

"Get out, I'm going to cook."

The young cook drove me out and started to get busy. I looked at her busying self and waved my hands helplessly. She seemed to be much better.

"This is such a strange poison, even Zi Fu can't do anything about it. Who do you think we should look for?"

I walked around the yard mumbling, "Yes!"

I slapped my head and realized that there was a medicine that always had miraculous effects on me. Maybe he could have some solution.
