Chapter 66 I Took the Poison

"I don't want to read it anymore." Nannan was so angry that she threw the book onto the table.

"Hey, didn't we agree that if you learn how to make it, we'll become rich and we'll never be able to finish the chestnut cakes."

After listening to me, Nannan pouted at me aggrievedly, "But, this book hurts my eyes, and it's so thick."

"Nannan, think about it, these chestnut cakes and peach blossom cakes, you can never finish them all."

I'm pretty good at making big promises, or maybe this guy is easy to fool.

Nannan didn't say anything else and continued to sit down and read. The candle was almost lit and Nannan had only read half of the book.

"How's it going?" At times like this, you still have to ask what's going on.

"I've only seen so many of them, and they all look the same, so why are their names different? It's hard to remember them."

"For the chestnut cake and peach blossom cake, look, I'm going to sleep for a while."

Seeing this makes me feel much more relieved. I can sleep peacefully now. I am so sleepy. It is already the middle of the night.

After coming here, I feel sleepy every day. I didn’t know I was pregnant.

In the dream, I felt something strange. I opened my eyes suddenly and saw Nannan looking at me face to face.

"What are you doing? Oh, you scared me to death."

Oh, I touched my chest and it was really scary.

I was just about to ask Nannan what she was doing, but she didn't say anything and just lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Looking at Nannan sleeping, her complexion is really bad, with dark circles under her eyes.

I got out of bed and looked at the herbs, papers and books scattered all over the floor. It was such a mess that I thought someone had stolen everything.

I tidied up the papers and looked at my daughter's expression. I felt distressed and wondered if what I did was too immoral.

Still feeling guilty, I went out to make something that my daughter liked to eat to replenish her energy.

By the way, return the book. After all, it is a compendium of poisons. If Zhiyi knew it was gone, he would definitely be suspicious.

There was still no one in the study room. I stuffed the book back. The dust in the study room was a foot thick. It must have been a long time since anyone had been here.

I put everything back in place, locked the door, quietly stole two eggs and went back.

When I came back, Nannan was looking at the ceiling in despair. I peeled the eggs and put them in front of Nannan.

Nannan glanced at me and said, "How can I eat this?"

"You snakes eat by swallowing everything you eat. You can even swallow a mouse, but you can't eat such a small egg. What's wrong? Is your throat too tight?"

"Who has a thin throat? It's just an egg, you stuff it into my mouth."

Nannan opened her mouth, and I put the egg at the base of her throat. I was afraid that her teeth would get in the way and I couldn't get the egg down.

Nannan swallowed it raw without chewing it, and a snake slid down in the shape of an egg.

At times like this, it's easy for me to get naughty with my hands, so I'll poke your eggs.

"Cough, cough, cough, what are you doing? Don't touch me." Nannan hit me with her tail.

"Hey, you guys are having fun eating."

"I read all night and you just gave me an egg?"

"Who said that? I got five. I'm calling them for you. Wait."

Nannan wanted to say something, but I stuffed an egg into her mouth. I saw that Nannan seemed to be hungry.

All five eggs were stuffed into his throat. Nannan found that the snake's body was not very big to begin with, and the five eggs almost got stuck in his throat.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha, I'm dying of laughter, Nannan."

"You did it on purpose!" Nannan disappeared after saying that, laughing to death, like a candied haws wrapped in skin.

The food was eaten. Five eggs were enough for my daughter to digest for a while. I examined the papers carefully and found that these herbs seemed to be various kinds of poisons.

I tried to make the medicine according to what Nannan wrote on the paper.

"I always thought that refining medicine was just putting herbs together and burning them to make pills."

The result was just the opposite. The poison was ground into powder according to the amount, kneaded into pills, and then the pills were dried.

"This method doesn't seem very scary. Is it okay this way?"

Never mind, let’s give it a try. I made a batch, but I was afraid it would attract too much attention, so I made some sweet potato cakes and stuffed them directly in.

I'm waiting to bask in the sun. It's boring to bask in the sun anyway, so I'm writing a storybook for my daughter. I promised her last time, but I haven't started yet.

Nannan would go on strike if I didn't write. It was boring to talk while writing, so I took a bunch of melon seeds, dried sweet potatoes, and some cakes to relieve my boredom.

A lot of these were actually compiled by me. Although I have read a lot of them before, it has been so many years and I really can’t remember them all.

It really taxed my brain. I had cracked all the melon seeds but I hadn't finished writing. I also ate a bunch of cakes and now that I was full, I hadn't finished writing the notebook.

I wiped my hands clean and put away the two chapters I had written. I'll have to rely on fooling around for the rest. I really can't think of anything to write.

I put the storybook on Nannan's bedside, and then went to collect the poison. When I did, I was dumbfounded. Where was the poison?

"Where's my medicine? How come it's gone? Is it bad? Didn't someone take it?"

I smacked my lips and tasted a strong sweet potato flavor. "This dried sweet potato is delicious."

I picked up the dried sweet potatoes on the table and prepared to eat them again. Something was wrong. Why did the taste differ from the taste in my mouth?

Only then did I carefully taste the taste in my mouth, which was completely different from the dried sweet potatoes I had just eaten.

What I just ate was the poison I made myself. Because I was worried that the poison would not be palatable, I added chestnuts and honey.

"yue~" I immediately scratched my throat, but couldn't spit it out at all. What should I do? I see there is still one left.

I rushed to Nannan's bed with the remaining sweet potato poison, wanting her to help me taste it, after all, the paper was written by Nannan.

She must know how to make the antidote. I only made six in total and ate five at once. I was afraid that I would die before I could even reach my daughter's bed.

Maybe it’s a psychological effect. I’m starting to feel dizzy and feel like I can’t even stand up.

I walked to Nannan's bed with great difficulty and woke her up. She was still asleep and looked at me in confusion, thinking I was going to feed her eggs.

He directly covered his mouth with his tail, "No, I'm not feeding you eggs, help me look at this."

I handed the sweet potato ball to Nannan. Her eyes lit up when she saw it and she swallowed the sweet potato ball in one gulp.

I was completely confused for a moment, and I just watched the sweet potato balls slide down from Nannan's throat.

I was so confused that I forgot what I was going to say. After a long while, I finally reacted and reached out to grab Nannan's tail, trying to make him spit out the meatball.

After eating, Nannan smacked her lips and asked me if I wanted more. Seeing Nannan's silly look, I felt worried. Before I touched Nannan, I saw that the bulge on the meatball was gone.

I asked Nannan in surprise, "Have you finished digesting it?"
