Su Jin had a retaliatory nature, and Xie Jingchen targeted the snake’s seven-inch point.So despite others plotting against her many times, they never hit the mark, still tirelessly working to kill her.
However, today’s incident served as a reminder for Xie Jingchen.
It’s been two months since he married Su Jin, and he hasn’t vomited blood.
Although there were periods before when he didn’t vomit blood for such a long time, he still needed to vomit a couple of times to ease their worries.
Otherwise, they’d suspect whether his poison was cured and come up with other ways to kill him.
Sometimes, it’s hard to guard against everything.
Tomorrow is the day the pharmacy opens, and not many people know it belongs to Xie Jingchen, so he didn’t plan to attend the opening.
Not only did he not go, but after having breakfast, he soon vomited blood and fainted.
He "fainted" in the backyard.
The Hidden Guard rushed to the front yard to have a maid invite Doctor Li into the mansion to check Xie Jingchen’s pulse.
Doctor Li knew Xie Jingchen was already cured, but still brought his medicine box along.
He came to seek Su Jin’s advice on medical skills and incidentally learn the gold needle technique of acupuncture.
Princess Nanzhang personally came to visit Xie Jingchen.
Seeing Xie Jingchen’s breath like a thread and his face ashen, she was relieved.
This was the look he was supposed to have.
In front of others, Princess Nanzhang was very polite, looking at Doctor Li and said, "Can the poison in the Eldest Young Master’s body be cured?"
Doctor Li glanced at Xie Jingchen, then said, "I recently got a medical book that has a new detoxification method. I plan to try it on the Eldest Young Master, but it requires daily acupuncture and medicinal baths."
"How certain are you?" Princess Nanzhang asked.
"Ten percent," Doctor Li said ashamedly.
Ten percent certainty practically means there was none.
Xie Jingchen said intermittently, "Even if, even if there’s only ten percent, I still want... to try it."
Princess Nanzhang said, "As long as the Eldest Young Master’s poison can be cured, our Duke Zhen Mansion will reward handsomely."
Doctor Li expressed that he would definitely do his best.
Princess Nanzhang looked at Su Jin’s face full of disdain, smirking inwardly.
Now she realizes she regrets it!
No matter how much the Eldest Young Master dotes on her, it won’t change the fact that he is full of fatal poison and not long to live.
Entering the gates of Duke Zhen Mansion, she should not think of leaving in this lifetime.
Princess Nanzhang stayed for a while and then left.
As soon as she left, Su Jin removed the few silver needles from Xie Jingchen’s back.
His face visibly returned to its rosy hue.
Doctor Li was amazed at Su Jin’s medical skills.
Not to mention, the acupoint map drawn by Su Jin was the most detailed Doctor Li had ever seen.
Some of the acupoints he hadn’t even heard of, and what diseases they could treat were also more detailed than what he knew.
Doctor Li felt that if medical skills were a book, he had only read half, while Su Jin had seen it all.
Not only the acupoints but also the medicinal ingredients, the effects of those medicinal herbs were more comprehensive than he knew, and how to combine them to achieve the best efficacy.
The more Su Jin taught, the more Doctor Li felt ashamed.
An hour later, Doctor Li planned to leave, and Su Jin asked, "How is that young man?"
Doctor Li smiled and said, "That young man has fully recovered from his injury. Just as my pharmacy is short-staffed, he’s now working there. No one has picked on him in the past few days, they probably don’t dare."
"In that case, I’m relieved," Su Jin said.
Outside the house, Xingxing had made beggar’s chicken and handed one to Doctor Li, "Doctor Li, this beggar’s chicken is for you."
Looking at the mud-covered lump, Doctor Li was speechless, "...."
"Just smash it with a stone when you get home," Su Jin said.
Doctor Li hurriedly thanked her.
This time, Xingxing made quite a few beggar’s chickens, telling Young Master Su that they were delicious.
Young Master Su wanted to try them.
Xingxing knew there were many people at the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, so she made plenty and asked a Hidden Guard to deliver them.
With six mud lumps in the bundle, the Hidden Guard left with a helpless expression.
At Dongxiang Marquis Mansion.
Under a big tree, Young Master Su was stoking the fire.
He poked the firewood with a stick.
The flames tinted his little face red.
Little Black lay by his feet, panting from the heat.
Prince NanAn and the others walked over and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Making beggar’s chicken," Young Master Su said.
"Beggar’s chicken?" Chu Shun asked curiously.
"What is beggar’s chicken?"
"I don’t know either, but Xingxing said it’s really delicious, so I decided to make it since I have nothing else to do," Young Master Su said.
Since childhood, Marquis Dongxiang and Mrs. Tang cultivated his hands-on abilities.
As long as they thought it was something Young Master Su could do, Marquis Dongxiang and Mrs. Tang let him try it.
Xingxing said the method for making beggar’s chicken was simple: wrap the chicken in lotus leaves, coat it with mud, and then bake it over a fire. When it’s almost done, break the mud open to eat.
The steps were simple.
There were chickens in the kitchen, free for him to take.
There were lotus leaves in the garden, free for him to pick.
Mud was even easier to find.
Young Master Su thought he could handle it, so he did it himself.
He added leaves to the fire.
Prince NanAn looked curiously at the mud lump, "Since it’s Young Master Su’s first time cooking, I should taste it to show support."
"Ten taels of silver," Young Master Su said.
"...."
"Do you know how many chickens ten taels of silver can buy?" Prince NanAn laughed.
"No matter how many you buy, they’re not roasted by me," Young Master Su said confidently.
"...."
The Heir of Marquis Beining suppressed a laugh, "Pay up."
For those who didn’t lack money, paying up was done with extraordinary ease.
Young Master Su happily pocketed the silver ingot. It felt great to earn money without leaving the mansion.
Unlike his father, his mother, or his elder brother, who never gave a cent.
After collecting the money, Young Master Su stirred the fire open.
The mud lump had become hard from the heat.
He smashed the mud lump open with a stone.
A chicken leaped out—
And ran off at full speed.
It was so fast that even Little Black couldn’t catch up.
Young Master Su was dumbfounded.
Chu Shun, "...."
Prince NanAn, "...."
The Heir of Marquis Beining, "...."
The Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo, "...."
"Is this the beggar’s chicken?" Prince NanAn asked.
"How are we supposed to eat this?" Chu Shun asked.
Young Master Su, "...."
His face turned red. Original content can be found at novel✦fire.net
The chicken was too disrespectful to him; it wasn’t even cooked.
"You didn’t even kill the chicken?" The Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo said with a wry expression.
"I knocked it out with one slap!" Young Master Su said.
"...."
The Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo felt they were insane.
Actually expecting a child under seven to cook for them.
Young Master Su grabbed the hen from the kitchen and smeared mud on it.
The hen struggled, splattering mud onto his face.
Young Master Su was furious.
After spreading the lotus leaf, he raised his hand and gave the hen a flick on the forehead, knocking it out directly.
The mud-wrapping went smoothly, as did the baking.
Yet the hen wasn’t boiled or suffocated.
Young Master Su was embarrassed.
The money was almost slipping away.
"Refund, refund," Prince NanAn said.
Young Master Su clutched the silver, saying, "My dad said that a single failure doesn’t mean eternal failure."
Prince NanAn, "...."
Didn’t get to eat beggar’s chicken, but got served chicken soup.
"Rest assured, I’ll definitely make sure that chicken is fully cooked," Young Master Su promised.
Chu Shun held back his laughter, "Let’s trust him this once."
Prince NanAn was just teasing him.
Being able to see a chicken with such a strong will to live for ten taels was quite worth it.
In the distance, a servant led the Hidden Guard over.
Young Master Su seemed to see a lifesaver, "Did you come to find me?"
"Here to deliver beggar’s chicken to you," the Hidden Guard said.
He placed the bundle down.
Young Master Su opened it to see six mud lumps.
"Could they also be undercooked?" Prince NanAn shook his folded fan skeptically.
"If six chickens run off at once, wouldn’t it be quite a spectacle?" Chu Shun chuckled.
"...."
