After the plum blossoms were finished, the two of them got back to business.
"I want... to ask Doctor Tang to help me. I'm really at my wits end."
Tang Zangyue did not say a word, but used pliers to stir up the fire to make it burn brighter, and then said: "Although I have invited many people and helped some people, they all have something worthy of my help.
. Take the Qian family for example. They seem to have only two children, and the adults have brain problems. But I am a doctor. I can save the adults by spending some money on medicine. I have successfully added a strong labor force to the family... Why not?
"
Tang Zangyue: "What about you? Where is your advantage? Is it you, your two stepdaughters, or your two daughters who are under one month old?"
Plum blossoms were said to be ashamed of themselves.
She really has no advantage.
Moreover, she is the kind of person who needs a lot of help in the early stage and will not see any return in the short term. She has no parents and brothers, and her children are still young and cannot do anything.
But she, she can...
She knelt in front of Tang Zangyue and looked at Tang Zangyue with tenacious eyes, as if she was grasping at the last straw, as if she was the only light.
Plum Blossom: "I beg Doctor Tang to grant me permission."
"I will go up to the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of fire, no matter what. I just want to find a way out for the four children!" After saying that, she kowtowed to Tang Zangyue.
It wasn't until he finished three of them that Tang Zangyue sighed and wanted to help her up.
Mei Hua thought that the other party had rejected her and refused to get up, and wanted to kowtow again. However, she saw her face stern and she asked sarcastically: "Why, if I don't agree to your promise, do you still want to stay with our Xiao family?"
Meihua hesitated for a moment, but Tang Zangyue finally softened her voice and said, "Get up and speak."
Mei Hua had no choice but to stand up slowly and sit back on the small stool.
Tang Zangyue: "It's not like we can't help..."
Mei Hua's eyes lit up. Tang Zangyue said again: "Tell me how you want me to help."
Tang Zangyue wanted to see if this person would come up with his own ideas or let her make them. There was a big difference between the two, which would determine how she would use this person in the future.
Mei Hua thought of what her vicious mother-in-law had done and suppressed her hatred. She said, "I know Doctor Tang is very skilled in medicine, so I want to ask for medicine."
"Oh? What medicine."
"Chronic poison." Mei Hua gritted her molar teeth, not regretting speaking out her thoughts, and continued: "A poison that will not cause death but also paralyzes the other person in bed, making life worse than death."
Tang Zangyue looked at this woman seriously for the first time.
He has a tough and tolerant personality, and his methods of revenge are not vicious.
How many troubles had been caused in the Chen family before? This woman didn't even come to the Xiao family's door. Listening to Xiao Yuechun, this man didn't blame her for not saving her. She knew how to be considerate and could empathize with others.
Obviously at a disadvantage, I still have to think about my two stepdaughters...
Not bad, really good.
That old lady Chen was really weird, but there was no law in Chu State that clearly stipulated that killing her daughter-in-law and granddaughter would be a crime, so old lady Chen acted unscrupulously. There were many such people in later generations, but they were all constrained by the law and did not dare to take human lives.
In the eyes of these people, human life is not life, but a tool for raising children.
Tang Zangyue's eyes narrowed slightly.
Mei Hua hesitated and said, "Does Doctor Tang think I'm going too far?"
"She wants to kill you, but you want to spare her life. How is that too much?"
This seems to be the truth, but Mei Hua always feels that something is wrong. After thinking for a while, she happily said: "Doctor Tang, are you willing to help me?"
"What can I get from helping you?"
Mei Hua pondered for a moment and said: "From now on, I will make the decision for the Chen family."
"Oh? You can make the decision? Where do you get the confidence?"
Meihua: "I have someone I care about, so I can give up everything and make a desperate move. Except for Mrs. Chen, everyone else in the Chen family is afraid of another death."
"You know them quite well."
How could you not understand.
In less than two years since she got married, she has experienced life and death several times. If she doesn't learn to be smart, she won't know how she will die in the future.
"Other than that? What else can you give me?" Tang Zangyue didn't feel at ease because he was just a member of the Chen family.
"In the future, I will be a knife in Doctor Tang's hands." A knife to clean up the other party's dirty work.
Tang Zangyue laughed and once again looked at this plum blossom in a special light, "Not bad, not bad." It can really increase one's worth.
However, Jiuli Village, including the village chief, did not see that the Xiao family would do anything else in the future, thinking that the Xiao family would only be limited to business.
Tang Zangyue picked out the corn, wrapped it in a sack, handed it to the other party, and said: "Come back tomorrow night, I will give you the stuff. As for food, I will also give it, but you need to hide it. If it is exposed,
Xiao family...you should know the consequences."
Meihua knows that the other party is not a good person, but for herself, Doctor Tang is the only life-saving straw for the five of them.
She didn't feel scared, but had hope for the future.
Plum Blossom carried corn wrapped in linen in her pocket and returned to Chen's yard.
It was Dongmei who opened the door.
Dongmei whispered: "Mom, I didn't see you as soon as I woke up... Where have you been?"
"Go and wake up your sister."
The Chen family has a large yard, and there is no shortage of room. Because she was not in confinement, Chen Mazi thought she was dirty, so she went to another house to burn a kang to sleep. Country people can be in confinement in two or three days, so the reason why the plum blossoms sat half
Yue, her body was extremely empty, and with the intervention of the village chief and the clan uncles taking turns to persuade her, Mrs. Chen reluctantly allowed her to finish her confinement period.
There were only five of them, mother and daughter, in the house. There was no kerosene lamp, and a faint smell of roasted corn could be smelled through the moonlight through the window.
"Mom?" Dong Ju slept in a daze.
Mei Hua hurriedly put one piece each into the hands of her two stepdaughters, "Eat quickly, and then go to bed after eating."
Dong Ju touched the temperature in her hand in shock and said, "Mom, where did you get this?"
Her sister pinched her waist, and she almost screamed. Fortunately, Dongmei was on guard and covered her mouth tightly, glaring and saying, "You want to wake everyone up, don't you?"
Mei Hua smiled lightly and said to Dongmei: "Mom will go out tomorrow night. Dongmei, please hold the door for me."
As soon as Dongmei withdrew her hand, Dongju gave up her curiosity and said, "Mom, let my sister go to bed. I'll hold the door open for you."
Meihua touched Dongju's sparse hair and said nothing.
Dongmei snorted: "Sister, I'm not talking about you. Mom asked me to stay at the door, so of course she has her own intentions. If someone else wakes up at night and asks you what you are doing at the door, how will you respond? Or should I stay at the door for my mother?
Door."
Plum Blossom: "Eat quickly, don't let it get cold."
When I get the medicine tomorrow, I have to find a way to take over the cooking process in the kitchen, and then I'll find a way to slowly administer the medicine to make Mrs. Chen's life worse than death.
On the second night, plum blossoms came to my door again.
The door of Xiao's courtyard was open, and the main room was lit by a weak kerosene lamp, which shone on Tang Zangyue's body and reflected on the wall, making shadowy shadows.
Mei Hua knocked on the door of the main room, and the other party raised his head with a cold brow, "Here you come?"
"Um."
"Did the courtyard door close smoothly?"
"closed."
"Oh, the door of the room closed easily." As he said that, Tang Zangyue shivered, wrapped her cloak tightly, and muttered: "It's still quite cold."
plum bossom:"……"
As soon as the door closed, Tang Zangyue handed the bottle over, "It is colorless and odorless. Even if Dr. Xue was examining it, he would not suspect that it was poisoned by someone. It is only very slow to see the effect. I estimate it will take half a year."
