Chapter 255: Cause and Effect
Qin Liuxi had often done such things as stitches for wounds. Just before she came, on the day of the consecration by the grandmaster, she had also stitched up the scholar's wounds. She was extremely skilled in her movements.
But the little girl in front of her was a hundred times luckier than that scholar. She didn't feel any pain, and she didn't even know what was happening to her body. The opponent's movements were minimal and extremely delicate.
Doctor Du was watching from the side, seeing Qin Liuxi sewing up the slanted wound bit by bit like he was mending clothes. He was unhurried and very steady.
It turns out that the wound can still be stitched like this.
Doctor Du swallowed his saliva, his fingertips trembling a little.
The medicine boy, the assistant, looked on with his mouth twitching and the cold air coming out one after another, as if the needle and thread had fallen on his face, it hurt so much.
Shopkeeper Ye was the only one with admiration in her eyes. She had long heard that Qingpingguan, who did not seek Taoist medicine, had excellent medical skills and was also very skilled in preparing medicines. The effect of the same type of medicine she made was far better than that of other alchemists. Be high.
In the past, I just heard it but didn't see it, which felt a bit exaggerated. Now I see it with my own eyes, it is really eye-opening.
From what I hear from my elders, she is also very good at fortune telling.
Shopkeeper Ye rubbed his hands, a little excited, and wondered if he could ask for an amulet.
Si Lengyue watched quietly from the side, her eyes flashing with admiration and admiration.
She is really awesome.
When Qin Liuxi placed the last stitch, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. He tied the sutures with hidden knots. Then he straightened up and sweat rolled down his forehead.
She took the handkerchief handed over by Shopkeeper Ye and rubbed her forehead. She looked at the thin line of wound on Yan'er's face and let out a sigh of relief.
"Is there any Yuxueji left in the store?" Qin Liuxi asked shopkeeper Ye.
Shopkeeper Ye's pupils shrank and he said, "Do you want to use Yuxueji?"
Qin Liuxi nodded: "Here, get some pearl powder."
Shopkeeper Ye glanced at the woman who still had patches sewn on her clothes, and a trace of hesitation flashed across her face. This woman was afraid she couldn't afford it.
Qin Liuxi looked at his eyes and said, "Get it first and charge it to my account. Later I will ask the shopkeeper from Licheng to transfer the goods to Qingzhou to make up for it."
Si Lengyue's eyes flashed, Yuxueji, that was a top-quality medicine worth thousands of gold. Even the Palace of Immortality might not always have it in stock, and even if she had money, she might not be able to buy it, but she could use it as she was told, and she could also adjust the supply.
Shopkeeper Ye said: "That's not necessary. My boss has already told me that you can use whatever medicine you want. Please wait."
Precious medicines like Yuxueji will not be displayed on the counter outside, but must be hidden deep inside.
He asked the medicine boy to get the pearl powder, while he pulled the key from his neck and went to the medicine warehouse.
While Qin Liuxi was waiting, he took out a pen and paper and wrote down a prescription for reducing swelling, blood stasis and inflammation. She turned her head and looked at the woman, but she frowned.
Si Lengyue saw her expression and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this woman?"
Qin Liuxi held the prescription, pursed her lips, and asked the woman, "Is your husband treating you badly?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, with a bitter expression on her face, and looked at her daughter on the couch and said, "Although my husband's family dislikes me for giving birth to a daughter, the first granddaughter was fine when she was born. It's just that my belly has not grown properly over the years." It’s inevitable to accept anger, but what woman doesn’t do that? Just accept it.”
"If I told you that you might die from this, would you still suffer?" Qin Liuxi said.
A person's appearance changes due to luck. Before, this woman's appearance showed that her husband and wife were at odds with each other for half her life, but it was not a big deal. But now, her face was actually covered with a layer of death.
It only took a moment for his face to change.
Qin Liuxi subconsciously looked at Yan'er on the bed, his face darkened, and he squeezed the Jingfang tightly.
It's all death.
Qin Liuxi's entire aura suddenly became cold and deep. Even Si Lengyue took two steps back, not to mention Doctor Du and the other staff present, who did not dare to take a breath.
I don't know why, but I'm scared.
Shopkeeper Ye brought the jade snow muscle over and saw that the scene was a bit solemn. He couldn't help but froze for a moment. Then he saw that Qin Liuxi's face was not good-looking and said cautiously: "Sir, the jade snow muscle is here."
"Yuxueji? Is it really Yuxueji? Go and report it to Third Grandma." There was an exclamation from the door.
Everyone looked over and saw someone walking in quickly. It was a girl dressed as a maid in a pink dress.
"Shopkeeper Ye, when we came to ask yesterday, you said you didn't have it, but now you have it? That's just right. Our third grandma wants this jade snow muscle, and we can give it any amount of money." The maid looked proud.
Yuxueji and the others basically come to ask about it every day. After all, the birthday of the imperial concubine is coming soon, and the third grandma has never found a suitable birthday gift. If she can get Yuxueji to send it to her, it will naturally be the best gift. .
Qin Liuxi's eyes were half-squinted.
Someone came over again, this time it was a young woman with a fairy bun, gorgeous clothes, and a precious gemstone hairpin.
Her makeup was exquisite, her eyes were slanted, and her chin was sharpened, making her appear flamboyant and arrogant. When she looked at people sideways, she looked even more disdainful and condescending.
"Is it really Yuxueji?" When the young woman mentioned Yuxueji, although she was still holding her airs, there was a hint of surprise and urgency in her voice.
Si Lengyue recognized this person and said to Qin Liuxi: "This is the third sister-in-law Tu. As I told you, the third sister-in-law of Tu Jiu, the playboy who hurt Yan'er, is really unjust."
Grandma Tu San is the daughter of the Meng family.
Qin Liuxi glanced at the woman, then at the jade-like muscle in the hand of shopkeeper Ye, and then at the woman and Yan'er, and found that the death aura was heavier, and suddenly she understood where the death aura came from.
She smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes.
Cause and effect are always so strange. Tu Jiu hurt Yan'er, and she saved her. If she wanted to use the jade-like muscle, Yan'er and the others would die because of it, because Grandma Tu San would never miss the jade-like muscle. If she wanted it but could not get it, she could only rob it by force. If she could not rob it, she could only use extraordinary means.
According to Tu Jiu's nature of taking human life lightly, the Meng family was even more domineering. How could Grandma Tu San have mercy on the lowly people in her eyes?
She didn't even have to do it herself, she only needed to give a little money to the woman's husband's family to get the medicine.
And when Grandma Tu San moved, Qin Liuxi was also entangled in this cause and effect.
No, now she is in it, because she has saved it.
Shopkeeper Ye secretly complained in his heart. He had the Jade-Snow Skin. The Third Madam of the Tu Family had come to ask more than once, but he had always refused. Now he was caught red-handed. He was really unlucky.
"Shopkeeper Ye, I want the Jade-Snow Skin. Name a price." The Third Madam of Tu stepped forward, looked at Shopkeeper Ye, and even looked at the glass bottle in his hand, her eyes shining.
She had been looking forward to the Jade-Snow Skin for a long time. If she could get it and send it to the Imperial Concubine Aunt as a birthday gift, the benefits in return would be absolutely inestimable. Even if it could help her husband find a good position, it would be great.
After all, the Imperial Concubine Aunt was looking for the Jade-Snow Skin because the emperor had a new favorite recently and was not as fond of her as before.
So she was determined to get the Jade-Snow Skin!
