HP: Hogwarts Snake

Chapter 388 Medical Treatment

The next morning, Della saw Belinda with tears in her eyes. Her affectionate amber eyes were usually captivating enough, and when moistened by her even more affectionate tears, one could drown in them.

"Oh, Della!" Belinda's shrill voice at this time was not annoying, but it made people tremble in their hearts, and they couldn't help crying along. She shouted and hugged Della in her arms.

Warmth and tenderness enveloped her. Della's heart melted a little in her daze. She hugged Belinda back and glanced at Zhou Yushi who had just walked out from the back.

Zhou Yushi raised an eyebrow at her, probably asking her to conceal the physical condition that he already knew.

How could a person who is determined to die not be aware of his hands and feet becoming increasingly cold?

If people who suffer from worry can have an optimistic and positive attitude to live, how can worry become a disease?

Della knew this, and Zhou Yushi understood this, but it did not prevent him from cleverly fooling Belinda.

This man is really insidious. I really don’t understand how such a thoughtful person can win and fully devote himself to Belinda’s pure love.

Della thought so as she patted Belinda gently. She pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What's wrong, Belinda?"

"I didn't see you almost all day yesterday," Belinda hugged Della tighter and said in a trembling voice, "I missed you so much."

"Let's stay together more today," Zhou Yushi came over, "On the second day of the Chinese New Year, people usually go back to their parents' home with their wives. I can't go back to Country F for a while, so I can spend the whole day accompanying Bei'er to do things. I can guarantee it and I am very happy to do it."

"To make up for yesterday, I want to stay with you all day!" Belinda let go of Della, lowered her head, and looked at her cherishingly with her watery eyes.

"......Okay." Della's voice suddenly became a little hoarse, and she took the initiative to bury herself in Belinda's arms and rub against him.

"By the way, everyone had almost paid respects to the elders yesterday, and I don't have an aunt, which means that my grandfather will not have many guests today, and there will be no uncles to entertain," Zhou Yushi suggested, "Do you want to ask grandpa to check your pulse and experience Chinese medicine? My grandfather can also prescribe nourishing prescriptions for you, prescriptions to make your body stronger."

"Besides," Zhou Yushi raised his voice and winked slyly, "the group that pestered you yesterday won't dare to act presumptuously in front of Grandpa. It's still early now, so we should go there quickly and have some free time."

"Okay..." Della responded again, but this time there was mostly silence. It was originally meant to be friendly and caring, but Zhou Yushi turned it into a play specifically performed for Belinda to see, where the ignorant Della Riddle fell into a trap.

Della had a lot of complaints about ignorance and falling into a trap, but just as Zhou Yushi had calculated, she really couldn't expose such things to Bellinda who was only thinking about her.

On the one hand, he didn't want to make Belinda worry too much, and on the other hand, he felt grateful to the person who gave him the favor.

Chinese is really concise, Della Cha, whose Chinese proficiency has advanced to the level of popular proverbs, thought happily on the way.

Near the main courtyard where the owner of the mansion lives, the prosperity along the road cannot compete with the deep background color here. The closer you get, the more you can smell the herbal fragrance. It is not bitter like the one in Snape's office, but rather refreshing and pleasant, a bit like the incense scent that occasionally comes out of Belinda and Zhou Yushi's room.

When I stepped over the threshold, there was already someone in the yard. It was Tang Xueji, whose left eye was covered by Powang. She was standing in front of layers of medicine shelves, flipping through the dried herbs in bamboo frames.

Hearing the noise, she looked up. There was no surprise on her face. She just nodded politely. However, the delusion on her face that had been with Della for a while wavered slightly, as if she was greeting Della.

"Where's grandpa?" Zhou Yushi stepped forward and greeted him first.

"Go to the back with grandma," Tang Xueji put down the medicine in her hand, "Why, you finally came to take my pulse?"

Zhou Yushi nodded, turned around and waved for Bellinda and Della to come forward, "My eldest sister can do it too. She has always been with grandpa, and grandpa taught her all the true teachings."

"Let's go in." Tang Xueji didn't refuse. Seeing that the two had caught up with him, he turned around and walked into the house.

After entering the house, the atmosphere was still serious and gloomy, but the lighting was very good. Not only did it not feel depressing, but it also made people involuntarily take a few more breaths.

Tang Xueji turned a corner and lifted another layer of gauze curtain to enter the inner room. Zhou Yushi tacitly arranged for Belinda and Della to sit down, and then taught Belinda, who was sitting further in the front, how to place her hands on the cushion.

Tang Xueji put her hand on him, her brows still indifferent. She didn't touch him twice, then looked up and smiled at Zhou Yushi, "Not bad, Yushi, you haven't been slacking off outside, have you? Your girlfriend is in good health, but this Zuo Guanxian - is there anything bothering you recently? There's no need to take medicine, I think she'll be fine after just two days of rest."

Della, who was listening at the side, slightly twitched her eyelids. If Tang Xueji was not in cahoots with Zhou Yushi, then she would be able to find out what troubles Belinda had experienced last night just by taking her pulse. She was really good at it.

While she was thinking, Tang Xueji's hot fingertips reached her wrist. Della felt those burning points moving slowly and jumping slightly, and felt as if her body was being opened up and examined.

Tang Xueji lowered her eyes and touched for a long time. The fine lines between her eyebrows had grown from nothing to as deep as a needle. She, who was always cold and aloof, couldn't help but look at Della in surprise.

Della noticed the fleeting surprise and her first reaction was surprise, because according to Zhou Yushi's statement, they had actually anticipated her physical condition and should not be so surprised.

Following this line of thought, combined with Tang Xueji's ability to deduce details just by taking her pulse, Della keenly came up with another guess - Tang Xueji had sensed the abnormality of her body that had once been resurrected from the dead.

She had been to the hospital and St. Mungo's, but neither the Western doctors nor the witch doctors could find anything wrong with her body. But this was her first time contacting Chinese medicine, so she didn't know how to proceed.

Subconsciously, Della pulled her hand back.

"You are here to get treatment, right?" Tang Xueji did not force the hand to stay, but asked calmly.

Della looked up at the unfathomable black eyes, not knowing how to respond for a moment. As soon as Belinda heard Zhou Yushi's translation, she stepped forward and stood in front of Della and Tang Xueji, eagerly continuing the conversation, "Of course! If Della has any health problems, of course she should get treatment. There are still so many beautiful sights in this world waiting for Della to see when she is in the best health!"

Under Bellinda's concern and Tang Xueji's gaze, Della nodded slowly.

"Very good," Tang Xueji also nodded. She turned to Zhou Yushi and said, "Yushi, take your girlfriend out first. I want to talk to her alone about her condition."
