Chapter 1036: Setting up a trap

"I just came up to bring you some medicine." Da Zhong said as he opened the brush and ink Xuan Er had put away and began to write and draw on it.

Xuan'er was originally looking at it casually, but slowly, his eyes changed, his brows slightly furrowed, and then he looked at the clock with some doubt.

What does Uncle Da Zhong mean by this? How can we use Lilith?

Noticing Xuan'er's confused look, Da Zhong wrote four more words:

Taking advantage of the situation

As if understanding something, Xuan'er looked up at Da Zhong and said, "Uncle Da Zhong, please give me some medicine. I suddenly remembered that my throat has been a little uncomfortable recently. I wonder if it's because of the cold wind."

Looking at Xuan'er with satisfaction, Da Zhong thought that this child was really smart. He understood his intention with just a few words.

After folding the rice paper, Da Zhong said, "You're such a stubborn kid! Wouldn't it have been better if you'd just drunk it earlier? It made me have to go back and prepare a new one for you. Really? Just practice your calligraphy here first. I'm going to go make the medicine."

Hearing this, Xuan'er spread the paper out again, but his mind was no longer on the copybook.

About an hour later, Da Zhong returned to Xuan'er's room with hot medicine and found that Xuan'er was already asleep on the bed.

Looking at the scattered papers on the table, Da Zhong shook his head and murmured, "This child is really naughty. He made such a mess here."

Putting the porcelain pot aside, Da Zhong began to put away the things. I have to say that Xuan'er's handwriting is very good, strong and powerful, and it doesn't look like something a six-year-old child could write.

After packing up his things, Da Zhong walked to the bedside, ready to wake Xuan Er up. But as soon as he saw Xuan Er's face, Da Zhong's expression changed.

He hurriedly sat down next to Xuan'er, Da Zhong reached out and touched his wrist, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

Gently patting Xuan'er's cheek, Da Zhong tried to wake Xuan'er up, but the child's face was flushed, his brows were furrowed, and he remained unmoved.

After secretly saying "Oh no", Da Zhong quickly took out his acupuncture kit and injected the needle into Xuan'er's arm.

Another quarter of an hour later, Xuan'er slowly woke up. Seeing Da Zhong's worried look, she couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Da Zhong, what's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong with me? I should be the one asking you this." Da Zhong touched Xuan'er's forehead with concern and asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were not feeling well?"

Xuan'er wanted to sit up, but when he saw the silver needles stuck in his arm, he froze for a moment and said, "I'm not feeling unwell, it's just that my throat suddenly started to hurt. Uncle Da Zhong, what's wrong with me? Am I seriously ill?"

"Don't worry, Uncle Da Zhong is here, you'll be fine. Xuan'er, be good, drink the medicine first, and then rest for a while."

Xuan'er nodded obediently, drank the medicine that Da Zhong handed to her mouth, and then began to feel dizzy. After a while, she fell asleep.

Seeing Xuan'er fall asleep, Da Zhong stood up and went to Xiao Jincheng.

After lunch, Xiao Jincheng was about to take a nap when he heard someone say Da Zhong was coming, so he asked someone to invite him in.

With a gentle smile on his face, Xiao Jincheng said to Da Zhong, "Why are you here at this time?"

Da Zhong changed his usual smiling face and said solemnly, "Master Xiao, I just went to Xuan'er's place. The child has an acute illness and needs to rest. I'm afraid he can't go far for a while."

Xiao Jincheng raised his eyebrows and asked hurriedly, "What disease did Xuan'er have? Is it serious?"

"It's not a serious problem. It's mainly caused by the unfamiliar climate and heat. A few doses of medicine and a few acupuncture treatments will fix it."

Hearing this, Xiao Jincheng felt relieved and asked, "Since it's not serious, how long will it take to recover?"

"It will take three to five days for the symptoms to subside. If you want to get rid of the disease, you need to rest for more than a month."

After hearing this, Xiao Jincheng was silent for a while, then asked, "What would happen if I took Xuan'er on a long journey?"

Da Zhong understood what Xiao Jincheng meant, but he looked confused and said, "Xuan'er has become like this because he is not used to the new environment. If he changes his environment again, I'm afraid it will be more harmful than beneficial to his condition."

"Then why not take some medicine?"

"When a child is sick, rest is the best thing to do. It has little to do with medication."

With a deep sigh, Xiao Jincheng said with emotion: "Oh, it seems that I can't take Xuan'er to the United States."

Nodding in agreement, Da Zhong said, "Given Xuan'er's current physical condition, it is indeed not suitable for long journeys."

With a hint of regret, Xiao Jincheng said, "Since you don't agree, then I can only let it go. After all, Xuan'er's health is more important. The rest can only be completed when there is an opportunity in the future."

"Xuan'er is still young. There will be many opportunities in the future. It's better to take care of your health first."

"That's right. Xuan'er, I'll trouble you while I'm in the United States."

Da Zhong bowed his head respectfully and said, "Master Xiao, you are too polite. I am a doctor and my job is to heal illnesses and save lives. Why would you bother me? Oh, by the way, I've asked someone to bring back the Codonopsis tea I mentioned last time. I'll send it to you shortly."

Folding his hands in front of him, Xiao Jincheng regained his usual composure and said with a smile, "You're too polite. I just mentioned it casually before, but I didn't expect you to take it to heart."

Smiling and waving his hands, Da Zhong said, "When it comes to your health, how can it be a small matter? Besides, it's just a small favor, not a big deal."

Casting a meaningful look at Da Zhong, Xiao Jincheng said with emotion: "Hey, Da Zhong is really a meritorious official to our Xiao family. Not only did he help me treat my illness and recover from my injuries, but he also took care of Xuan'er. I really don't know how to thank you."

Da Zhong felt a little embarrassed by the praise. Rubbing the back of his head, he said, "Master Xiao has already paid a generous reward. I won't accept it without merit. Of course I have to do my duty wholeheartedly. As for Xuan'er, I know his mother, so I will definitely take better care of him."

Seeing Da Zhong openly admitting the fact that he and Lin Yuqing knew each other, Xiao Jincheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes and said, "Xuan'er is so lucky to know an elder like you."

"It's my blessing to know such a smart and lovely child like Xuan'er," Da Zhong smiled at Xiao Jincheng, then said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

"it is good."

When Da Zhong's figure disappeared outside the door, Xiao Jincheng's smile slowly disappeared, and only gloom and desolation remained on his old face.

The attendant standing behind Xiao Jincheng looked suspicious and said, "Master, what do you think he means? Wasn't he going to take action in the United States? Why didn't he go?"

Xiao Jincheng's hawk-like eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze fierce as he said, "Da Zhong is a smart man. He must have noticed something, so he used this tactic of retreating to advance and clear himself of suspicion."
