The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Mrs. Zuo Shanggong finally understood that with her arms held like this, the poisonous insects could not stick to the covered parts of her arms and the poison would not be detoxified.

After understanding the truth, Mrs. Zuo Shanggong became more cooperative. Without waiting for Ye Yuxiao to say anything, she took the initiative to open her arms.

Ye Yuxiao picked up the bamboo tube and said to Mrs. Zuoshan: "It may hurt later, madam, please bear with it."

Mrs. Zuoshangong nodded.

Ye Yuxiao then said to Hu Yanmu and the maid named Zhuo Qiao: "If the pain is too much for Madam, please help her lift her arms."

They both agreed.

Ye Yuxiao then went to open the bamboo tube.

She trusted Tan Shizhao, but after all, it was her first time to use Gu insects, so she was unavoidably worried. She stared at the mouth of the bamboo tube, not daring to blink.

As soon as the bamboo tube lid opened a crack, a strong force hit, and the bamboo lid was suddenly knocked open, and the poisonous insects swarmed out and flew straight towards Mrs. Zuo Shanggong.

Mrs. Zuo Shanggong screamed in fright and subconsciously waved her hand to chase her away. Fortunately, Hu Yanmu had quick hands and eyes and stabilized her arm. The maid Zhuo Qiao followed suit and held her other side.

The poisonous insects scrambled to land on Mrs. Zuo Shanggong's body. In a moment, they were covered in all her skin, densely packed and layered.

What a sight! Even though Ye Yuxiao didn't have trypophobia, his scalp was numb at the sight.

Mrs. Zuo Shanggong couldn't suppress the fear in her heart, her eyes widened and her whole body became stiff. She seemed to be in great pain and gritted her teeth tightly, but she didn't make a sound from the beginning to the end.

Hu Yanmu tilted his head and whispered softly: "Don't be afraid, they are giving you drugs. Once they finish taking the drugs, your illness will be cured."

A man really separates his body and mind very much. On the one hand, he plans to marry an equal wife, but on the other hand, he treats his first wife with utmost tenderness. Is such a man a good husband? That's all, she doesn't need to evaluate this person. She just needs to know that she can't accept Ouyang Sheng's behavior. Don't even think about being an equal wife, no matter who it is for or for what reason.

The process of treating the Gu worm was terrifying, but time flew by. In less than a stick of incense, the Gu worm "called for gold and retreated", one after another, leaving Mrs. Zuo Shanggong and flying back to the bamboo tube.

These little things are quite smart and know their way home. Ye Yuxiao held the bamboo tube tightly to prevent them from knocking it over. But she soon discovered that it was not necessary. When the Gu insects went out, they were as powerful as tigers, but when they returned, they were quiet and no different from ordinary small flying insects.

She moved closer to the bamboo tube and took a closer look. Compared with before, the Gu insect seemed to have grown a little bit, but the change was not obvious, and it might be her imagination.

When the last Gu insect flew back to the bamboo tube, Ye Yuxiao closed the lid and handed it to Xiao Zuan.

At this time, Mrs. Zuo Shanggong had undergone obvious changes. The color of the scales darkened, just like a blooming flower that began to wither and lose its energy. When the sunlight shines through the window paper, it no longer emits a dazzling silver light.

"It worked!" Hu Yanmu said in surprise.

Mrs. Zuo Shanggong wanted to laugh happily, but she lost all her strength and slid down limply. Hu Yanmu quickly picked her up, took her to the inner room, and put her on the bed.

"Still hurts?" Hu Yanmu sat sideways on the bed and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief.

Mrs. Zuo Shanggong smiled: "It hurts, but I'm happy."

Yes, happy, he is happy too. Hu Yanmu put down the veil, stood up, and saluted Ye Yuxiao who followed him in: "Madam is indeed the beloved disciple of Dr. Tan. Her medical skills are truly amazing."

Mrs. Zuo Shanggong asked Zhuo Qiao to help her up, bowed to Ye Yuxiao on the bed and thanked her, and then asked her: "Madam, has my poison been cured?"

"Not so fast." Ye Yuxiao shook his head, "It will take at least three times to completely detoxify."

As long as we can completely detoxify and restore her appearance, not just three times, but thirty times will do! Mrs. Zuo Shanggong was still very excited: "Madam, you are my savior and rebirth parent."

Seeing that she was weak, Ye Yuxiao persuaded her to lie down, checked her pulse, and asked her in detail about her feelings during the treatment and now.

Mrs. Zuo Shanggong told her that when the poisonous insects possessed her, the pain was unbearable, like thousands of ants gnawing at the heart, but after they flew away, she was left limp and exhausted.

The feelings she described were exactly the same as those written in the anonymous doctor's book. Ye Yuxiao compared it secretly and told her: "The first treatment was the most painful due to the excessive accumulation of toxins in your body. After the second and third treatment, it won't be so painful."

"That's good." Mrs. Zuo Shanggong was very happy.

Seeing her smiling face, Hu Yanmu was also very happy. He thanked Ye Yuxiao again and asked her, "May I ask Mrs. Ning Hui, when is the next treatment?"

"Three days later." Ye Yuxiao said, "The Gu insects need time to rest."

"Okay." Huyanmu asked again, "What should we pay attention to during these three days?"

Ye Yuxiao thought for a while and asked, "During the Daxi period, did Madam live, sit, and sleep in this courtyard?"

Hu Yanmu smiled bitterly: "Not in this courtyard, but in this room. She has never stepped out of the door since she came to Daxi."

The range of activities is so narrow, which is easy to handle. Ye Yuxiao nodded, took the bamboo tube, and walked around the house, not missing every corner.

To be cautious, she finished visiting Mrs. Zuo Shanggong's bedroom, and then walked around the kitchen, tea room, and servants' room.

No matter where she went, the Gu insects in the bamboo tube were quiet and there was no more commotion.

Very good, this shows that the source of the poison is not here, and Mrs. Zuo Shanggong is not in danger of being poisoned again. Ye Yuxiao felt relieved and told Hu Yanmu: "There is nothing special that needs attention. Just eat well, drink well and sleep well."

Huyanmu couldn't understand what she said, but he understood what she said and nodded in agreement.

Ye Yuxiao asked Xiaozhan to put away the bamboo tube and say goodbye to Huyanmu and his wife.

Hu Yanmu personally escorted her out and sighed: "Although there is hope for detoxification, as long as the source of the poison is not identified, I will never feel at ease. What should I do if I get infected again just after the poison has been cured?"

"Monkey Zuo wants to find out the source of the poison, but there is no way out." Ye Yuxiao said.

She just said she didn't know how Mrs. Zuo Shanggong was poisoned, but now she has a solution? Hu Yanmu was doubtful: "What can we do?"

"You don't care what the method is. Anyway, I can help you find out." Ye Yuxiao said in a nonchalant manner, "But this is another matter and has nothing to do with treating the disease and detoxifying."

Hu Yanmu was very smart and immediately understood what she meant - detoxification in exchange for not marrying a girl from Pingnan Palace; if he wanted to find out the source of the poison, he would have to exchange it for other benefits.

"What does Madam want?" Hu Yanmu asked bluntly. Ye Yuxiao behaved so shrewdly, and he didn't resent it. After all, they had no friendship, and shrewdness was normal.
