Mrs. Ye noticed the doctor's expression and nervously held the handkerchief and asked, "Doctor Li, is there something wrong with Hua'er?"
The doctor wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, then stood up and saluted and said: "Back to Madam, there is indeed something wrong with the eldest lady's body, but my medical skills are limited, so I would like to ask several doctors to come and check it out together."
The corner of Wei Jingwei's mouth curled up slightly. Doctor Li was a smart man. He knew that if he did anything wrong with pickling, he would lose his life. If more people knew about it, even if the Liu family wanted to shut up, it would be hard to do anything.
Mrs. Ye lowered her head and thought for a moment, then hurriedly ordered the maid beside her to go out.
Soon two more doctors with white beards and hair came.
The two of them stepped forward to check Liu Meihua's pulse one by one, and then glanced at Dr. Li who was standing there looking at his heart and eyes before stepping forward to reply.
"There is indeed something wrong with Miss's body, but fortunately she still has time to heal herself."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ye stood up excitedly and almost knocked off the tea cup on the small table.
"What went wrong!"
Liu Meihua seemed to realize the problem, and her delicate little face turned pale again and again. She first walked slowly to Mr. Ye and gently stroked her back to comfort her.
As expected, she was a future mistress trained by a noble family, and she acted very calmly.
Mrs. Zhang couldn't sit still anymore, her lips pursed tightly, and her tone became unusually cold, "Tell me what the problem is."
The two doctors looked at each other awkwardly, and Ms. Zhang waved her hand, "Take one hundred and fifty taels of silver. This is your consultation fee for today."
The three doctors walking in the inner curtain are all human beings. This one hundred and fifty taels is not only the consultation fee, but also the sealing fee.
However, Zhang took money to gag them, obviously not prepared to embarrass them.
Heaving a sigh of relief, the oldest doctor at the head said: "Miss, she is poisoned."
When Mrs. Ye heard this, she couldn't stand, and her vision turned black, but she still held on, her eyes widened and she gritted her teeth and said, "Tell me, what kind of poison is it?"
"This poison is really rare. It has a silent effect on people. If exposed to it for many years, they will fall asleep for a long time and look like the living dead. However, I still don't know whether it is a problem with food or something that is exposed to it. "
Everyone was looking at Ye and Liu Meihua, but Wei Jingwei noticed that Liu Ruier's expression was getting more and more panicked.
Zheng's face also showed a worried look, "Will detoxification now harm Hua'er's health?"
"I will work out Zhang Wen's prescription with the other two to ensure that the young lady is fine."
Mrs. Zheng nodded, "That's very good."
Ye Ming also calmed down at this time and held Liu Meihua's hand tightly.
A maid was leading the way, and she had to take them to prepare a folk prescription.
Wei Jingwei's eyes gradually dimmed and she said crisply: "Three doctors, please stay. I would like to trouble you all to go to my cousin's place to see if the poison is in the room."
Mrs. Zhang nodded, "Jing Wei is still thoughtful."
At this time, Madam Ye regained her composure and was busy preparing to lead the doctor over.
Liu Ruier suddenly said, "Hey, my cousin is really smart. I haven't visited her for a long time. Today, I happened to know about my sister's poisoning by accident. Speaking of cousin, she is really my sister's lucky star."
Her voice was as innocent as a girl's, but the meaning in her words was evocative. Ye's walking pace even stopped at the door of the hall.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became suffocating.
Wei Jingwei narrowed her eyes, her long eyelashes forming a small shadow under her eyes.
The corner of her mouth curled up, but her tone was bitter, "I think the two sisters have a good relationship, unlike me..." She paused, "It's just that this matter was discovered early, shouldn't my sister be happy? How could I listen?" You seem to be... not very happy when you speak."
Liu Ruier stood up immediately and said in a fierce tone: "What nonsense are you talking about? My sister and I grew up together, how could I be unhappy? I think you are deliberately provoking!"
Wei Jingwei said nothing, but lowered her head with a bitter look on her face.
In the deserted place, a smile flashed in her eyes.
Seeing her expression, Mrs. Zhang immediately slammed the table hard and scolded: "You unruly thing, what are you talking about?" He turned to her and said: "Don't be sad, grandma knows you are a good person, Rui'er is spoiled. Behave yourself.”
Liu Meihua didn't seem to think that way, and even held Liu Ruier's hand to comfort her for a few words.
Mr. Ye has managed the huge Liu family for many years, so he is not as easily deceived as his own daughter. After hearing this, he ordered several doctors to quickly walk towards his daughter's courtyard.
As soon as this happened, the original joyful atmosphere in the main courtyard disappeared. Everyone had their own concerns and dinner was declined.
Wei Jingwei just lowered her head and drank tea without saying a word.
After a long time, Mrs. Ye came back again. As soon as she entered the door, she threw the exquisitely crafted purse in her hand towards Liu Ruier's face.
"You're such a white-eyed wolf, it's all in vain that I, Hua'er, have been so kind to you, and you actually harmed her like this!"
Mrs. Ye was probably out of breath as she spoke, and her chest was rising and falling rapidly.
Liu Meihua, who was sitting nearby, was stunned when she heard this, and then her expression became complicated.
Liu Ruier did not escape the blow, and her purse hit her cheek, and her pretty cheek turned red immediately. Her eyes flashed with anger, but soon dimmed, and there were a few tears in her eyes.
After standing up, she ran to Ms. Ye, pulled her skirt and knelt down. She looked so pitiful.
"Mom, my sister has treated me so well these years, how could I harm her! Today I found out that she was poisoned, and I wish I was the one who was poisoned. A kind-hearted person like my sister has to be a very vicious person to have the heart to do it. .”
As she spoke, she covered her face with her sleeves, her thin shoulders shaking slightly, looking extremely sad.
Ye was unmoved and snorted condescendingly, "You should ask yourself how evil-hearted you must be to treat Hua'er like this. I thought you were a good person, but deep down you are still the same despicable person you are. Like a mother, extremely dirty."
When Liu Ruier heard this, her shoulders shook even more intensely.
With disdain in Mrs. Ye's eyes, she kicked away the hand that was holding the hem of her skirt, and pointed at the rough ladies at the door with a wave of her hand.
"Come here and drag her down. Lock her in the woodshed. No one is allowed to give her food or water or enter without my order."
Liu Ruier raised her head abruptly, her eyes widened, and she shook her head in panic.
"Mother! Mother! Rui'er didn't do it, it's not Rui'er!"
Liu Meihua saw how embarrassed she was, so she quickly got up and came to Ye's side, saying softly: "Mom, there are many people who can enter my room, just in case... it's not my sister."
Liu Ruier seemed to see hope and nodded repeatedly.
Turning to look at Wei Jingwei fiercely, "This happened as soon as my cousin came here today. If you say it has nothing to do with my cousin, I won't believe it."
Wei Jingwei sat next to the old lady and smiled playfully when she saw that she still wanted to divert trouble.
"Tell me, why did I want to harm my cousin?"
