Transformed into a vicious stepmother, invincible

Chapter 226 The Problem of Wine

Soon a middle-aged man in a robe came in carrying a medicine box.

Bai Sui'an immediately stood up and anxiously pushed Lin Yashu out, saying, "Doctor, please take a look at my little girl first. She's young and weak. She hasn't been able to eat since she got home last night. I just let her eat several candied haws, but she also said she has no appetite."

The doctor's face was a little serious. He rolled up his sleeves and murmured, "Really? Eating too much candied haws is not good for you..."

He just thought that the woman didn't understand and was desperate to try any possible means.

Lin Yashu sucked her belly back in. In fact, she not only ate candied haws, but also ate a lot of pastries.

I had never been to the city before and had never eaten good food. Suddenly, I felt like I was possessed by Lin Rongkang and I was greedy for any delicious food I saw.

Her mother said that candied haws promote digestion, so she ate them with great relish, and even thought about asking her mother to buy some delicious food later.

I have already rinsed my mouth with tea, but I don't know if the doctor will notice.

However, the doctor never asked Lin Yashu to open her mouth to look at her tongue. Instead, as the doctor took her pulse, her face became increasingly gloomy, and her condition seemed very serious.

He also asked about Bai Sui'an's situation.

"The military camp didn't send food and fodder to the city a few days ago. How did Madam think of sending them?"

Bai Sui'an said helplessly, "The children are still so young and miss their father. Plus, I'm worried about him, so I thought of sending him something."

"Did you see anyone?"

"No, I saw his colleagues. They were all wearing masks. They said that everyone in the camp had caught a cold and was very sick. Many of them couldn't get out of bed."

Bai Sui'an didn't give the doctor a chance to interrupt, she continued to talk,

"Last night, my whole family had a headache and couldn't sleep well. Our noses were a little runny. I wonder if we caught a cold."

"Doctor, what kind of cold could be so severe that I can't get out of bed? My family are all rough people who have to work in the fields, so we're in great shape. But those in the military camp train every day, and they're already this sick. What can we do?"

The doctor raised his hand and asked Lin Rongle to come over and take his pulse.

Lin Yashu obediently gave up her seat, and Lin Rongle sat over, staring at the doctor with eyes fixed on him, like a child asking an unintentional question: "Uncle, can you really treat illnesses?"

The doctor frowned and said, "How could it be that I don't have any real doctors in my shop? Then why would I open a shop?"

Bai Sui'an was delighted:

"You own this shop? That's great! You must be very skilled in medicine and can definitely tell what's wrong with our family."

Lin Yashu raised her little face and looked at Bai Sui'an, "Mom talks so much."

Are all capable people able to communicate with others with ease?

Just looking at the doctor's face made her not want to talk to him.

That face doesn't look like that of a good person.

Those who look shifty are afraid that he is stealing other people's food.

Lin Rongle didn't say anything, just stared at the doctor. After waiting for a while, he asked again, "Did you find anything wrong with my body?"

The doctor glanced at him, seemingly annoyed by his impatience, and waved his hand: "It's just a common cold. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to take later. Next one will come."

Ji Wei went up and when he sat down, he suddenly covered his chest and retched, saying, "My stomach is bloated and uncomfortable, and I can't eat anything. I've been feeling nauseous since I smelled the fragrance on the way."

Among the three children, he acted the most realistically. He didn't drink any tea after coming in. His lips were a little chapped and his face was gloomy. It seemed that his condition was really bad.

Lin Yashu couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Ji Wei lied without any panic. His eyelashes trembled, his eyes were dull, his breathing was heavy, his gaze fell on his wrist, waiting for the doctor to tell him the result.

The doctor shook his head: "It's just a cold. Drink more water. It's your turn."

Bai Sui'an stepped forward and showed his wrist.

She just did nothing and waited for the results.

As expected, it was also said that Bai Sui'an was infected with a cold.

"The soldiers in the camp are probably in the same situation as you. If it's serious, I'm afraid there won't be enough medicine. Don't worry, I'll send someone to deliver some to them later."

Bai Sui'an showed a look of joy: "Really? That's great. Thank you, Master. The soldiers in the camp are saved."

After paying and taking the medicine, they left. When they went out, someone followed Bai Sui'an and the others.

Bai Sui'an winked at the dark corner and made a silent gesture with his hand.

She wouldn't wait until she left before letting anyone take action. The more time she gave people, the more likely something would go wrong.

So he ordered the secret guards to raid Yichun Pavilion and arrest everyone inside.

Even the children could see that the so-called doctor did not know how to treat patients.

They just prescribe medicine based on the symptoms.

And the medicine prescribed was not a good one.

Bai Sui'an looked at the medicine he had prepared. The herbs were all correct, but she had a keen sense of smell and could smell something else attached to the herbs. Even if the smell was covered by the medicinal scent, she could still smell the powder on top.

After buying some food to bring back to reward the people in the military camp, Bai Sui'an went back.

She had not mentioned the matter of Yichun Pavilion when she corresponded with Ye Lingchi before. She was afraid that the people in the city had suffered losses when transporting supplies.

However, although the people in this mountain city live and work in peace and contentment, there are indeed few people, not many shops, and the streets are sparsely populated.

You won't see beggars living in ordinary alleys.

I always feel like it's missing something.

After returning to the military camp, Bai Sui'an asked Ye Lingchi about supplies, but learned that the medicines in the military camp were all sent from other clinics in the city, and there were no medicines sent from Yichun Hall.

This is strange. How did the people in the military camp get infected with the strange disease?

Unable to figure it out, Ye Lingchi called the soldier who was attached to the supply docking station to question Bai Sui'an.

The first person to get sick was the one who was handling supplies. Although he has died, people in different shifts at the same position knew each other.

"The people in the city are really doing our military camp a favor. Every time they send us something we need, they're worried that we won't be able to handle the cold weather, so they even sent us some wine.

We tasted the food on purpose and only brought it back if it was okay.”

"liquor?"

Bai Sui'an looked at Ye Lingchi, who shook his head. "Before, the weather wasn't as cold as it has been these past two days, so there was no need for alcohol. Now everyone is taking medicine, so they won't drink. They should still be there. I can take you to have a look."

Ye Lingchi took Bai Sui'an to the tent where the supplies were stored and asked someone to find the place where the wine jars were stored.

According to previous registration, two large wine vats were found.

It is about one meter high, and one of the jars shows obvious signs of having been opened.

Bai Sui'an scooped out a bowl directly, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it. The smell of alcohol was too strong, and he couldn't tell what was in it for a moment.

But you can tell that herbs were added to the wine.

One soldier said, "Nothing happened in the days after we tasted it. If we had known there was a problem, we would have thrown the wine away."

If it was really the wine's problem, then it was their fault. Several soldiers who were responsible for transporting supplies on weekdays looked anxious.

The things sent from the city were said to have been inspected, but no problems were found during the routine inspections at the military camp, so they believed others and caused such a big trouble for the camp.

If it weren't for Bai Sui'an and Ye Lingchi, the barbarian army would have wiped them out when they attacked.

"Don't worry, it's not necessarily the wine's fault. Go out and start cooking with everyone else. I bought a lot of meat today."

Bai Sui'an smiled gently and sent all the soldiers away.

Only when she and Ye Lingchi were in the tent did she speak frankly, "It's the wine that's causing the problem. The medicine I got from Yichun Pavilion today contained the same ingredient."

You can tell its function by testing it with the system machine.

The medicine package from Yichun Pavilion was intended to aggravate the symptoms of cold and fever in the infected people, hoping that Bai Sui'an and others who were exposed to the situation would die quickly.

This wine jar contains more ingredients than those medicines. After consuming it, symptoms of cold will appear. If the doctor prescribes medicine according to the symptoms of cold, the situation will be aggravated. In addition, the military camp is densely populated and the virus can be transmitted to others through saliva.

A lot of people will fall ill.

Bai Sui'an had seen this kind of prescription in the things he looted from the cave where he rescued Ye Lingchi, but the ones recorded there were all unsuccessful versions.

I didn’t expect that it was actually made by the people of Gongchang.

I'm afraid that the western region of Qianheng Country is the area where they practice, and then they send this medicine to the military camp through wine.

"I wonder if anything happened in other military camps." Ye Lingchi couldn't help but worry.
