After being exiled to Lingnan, Prime Minister Quan's family collapsed and his people were set u

Chapter 93: Don’t hold back, don’t make trouble
Fortunately, this girl Tangtang came here, otherwise no one would have noticed that the old lady had a fever, and the problem would have been huge.

Thank goodness.

Zhou Shitang was about to turn around and go out when she remembered that this was not her usual place. She didn't know where the medicinal materials were kept, so she calmly said: "Auntie, where are the medicinal materials I sent here before? Where did you put them?"

Mrs. Li knew that time was urgent and did not dare to hide it. "Put it in the corner of the kitchen, wrapped in a piece of gray cloth. I will listen to you and take those medicinal materials out to dry every day..."

After Zhou Shi Shitang heard where the medicinal materials were, he turned around and walked out, not even in the mood to listen to what she said next.

"...I don't know if I have any requirements for you." Ms. Li didn't get angry and finished the rest of her words in one go.

Mrs. Li looked at Mrs. Zhou's old face, feeling anxious in her heart, and her palms were sweating. There was no imperial doctor here, so what should she do?

She reached out and wiped the square scarf on Mrs. Zhou's forehead. She found that it was still cold and had not become hot, so she took her hand back.

Ms. Li was restless and no one talked to her, unable to relieve the tension in her heart. She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and prayed in her heart to the gods to help the old lady get through this.

The one she respects most is the God of Wealth, so when she opens her mouth she says——

"God of Wealth, please help my old lady get through this difficult time. She has survived all the hardships on the road of exile, and she must be able to survive it now..."

"Yuanshi Tianzun, please..."

"Dear gods..."

……

Zhou Shitang had gone to the mountains to pull out a lot of herbs, some of which were used to treat colds and fevers. She sent some of them over just in case, but she didn't expect that they would come in handy now.

She quickly ran into the kitchen, her eyes locked on the corner, found the gray package, and ran over to open it.

These medicinal materials had been dried in the sun for several days and were half dry. She found the medicinal materials for treating fever, and then started to make a fire to boil the medicine.

She had also helped light fires at home recently and had a little more experience, so she quickly lit the firewood.

Zhou Yanshao, Zhou Mingyi and Zhou Rushan each came back with a handful of bamboo, and found that the house was quiet, and Mrs. Li was not seen.

Zhou Mingyi shouted in confusion: "Mom, we are back."

Mrs. Li changed the towel for Mrs. Zhou once. When she heard her son's voice, she trotted out. When she saw her husband and children, she instantly felt a backbone. Her restless heart calmed down a bit, and her voice sounded like crying, " You are finally back."

Zhou Yanshao and his son were puzzled when they saw Li's unfamiliar face, "What's wrong with your face?"

Li's voice whimpered, "Now is not the time to talk about this."

Zhou Yanshao saw his wife's lips were trembling and her voice was not right, and his heart skipped a beat, "What happened?"

Zhou Mingyi and Zhou Rushan were also very nervous when they saw that something was obviously wrong with their mother.

Mrs. Li sobbed: "Mom has a fever. I just touched it, but the fever hasn't gone down yet..."

There are many people who have died due to high fevers. They may not be cured even if they go to the imperial doctor. And the environment here is so bad that there is not even a doctor... The consequences of this are disastrous.

The faces of Zhou Yanshao and the others instantly turned pale, their breaths suffocated, and they hurried into the house. When they saw Mrs. Zhou sleeping, their eyes turned red and their hearts sank to the bottom.

Zhou Mingyi made a quick decision and turned around, "I'll find a way to find the doctor."

Li's eyes were slightly hot, and her mood was not optimistic. "Where can we find a doctor? Even if we find a doctor, we don't have money. Will he come over?"

Zhou Mingyi clenched his fists and suddenly remembered that Shi Tang had said that she could treat some diseases. He walked out quickly, "I'm going to find Tangtang." Li said to his back: "Tangtang is making medicine in the kitchen, you go Help light the fire.”

Zhou Mingyi was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what he was doing. He ran into the kitchen and saw Zhou Shitang sitting in front of the earthen stove, lighting a fire. His back looked calm and peaceful, and his nervousness suddenly dissipated.

He raised his foot and said, "Tangtang, is there anything I can do for you?"

Zhou Shitang added another piece of firewood, turned around, and saw Zhou Mingyi's eyes were red. He guessed that he already knew about his grandmother's illness, and comforted him softly, "Grandma will be fine."

Her voice was soft and soothing.

Zhou Mingyi nodded with tears in his eyes. He saw that Zhou Shitang's face was unfamiliar. When he looked carefully, his eyes were still the same as before. He was confused for a moment, but now was not the time to talk nonsense. Anyway, this was Tangtang's voice, "Grandma must be It’ll be okay.”

Seeing that his mood had stabilized, Zhou Shitang said, "Brother, go and tell my parents that I will stay here tonight. I will make sure that my grandmother's fever is gone before I go back."

"Tell them not to worry and just do whatever they have to do."

Zhou Mingyi didn't waste any time. He nodded, turned around and walked out of the kitchen. When he met Zhou Rushan who was coming towards him, he said, "Go in and help Tangtang."

Zhou Rushan's face was condensed, he hummed, and strode into the kitchen. He saw Zhou Shitang sitting in front of the earthen stove, quietly lighting the fire, without any panic at all.

She lowered her head slightly.

If it were her, could she be so calm and composed?

No.

When she heard that her grandmother had a fever and saw her lying on the bed, her mind went blank and her heart was in a mess. She didn't even know what she should do.

She couldn't be as calm as Zhou Shitang.

Zhou Shitang was a few years younger than her, but she was not at all inferior to her.

Zhou Rushan opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "Grandma will be fine, right?"

There is also something special about tormenting, and you need to control the heat, when to set a high flame, and when to set a low flame.

Zhou Shitang adjusted the heat and simmered over low heat. Hearing Zhou Rushan's trembling words, he hummed and affirmed, "Well, grandma has no other health problems. The fever will be gone. She will be fine. You can rest assured."

Zhou Rushan exhaled and realized that her palms were full of sweat. She wiped them on her clothes and asked, "Let me help you."

Zhou Shitang could still hold on for a while when she was angry. She turned around, took out the package of medicinal materials, and decided to take the time to educate Zhou Rushan on the medicinal materials and how to treat some minor illnesses, so as not to panic next time.

She pointed to the small stool next to her, "No one needs help at the moment. Sit down and I'll tell you the functions of those medicinal materials first."

Zhou Rushan was startled and sat down obediently.

Zhou Shitang knew better than her, so she just listened to her.

She has no ability, all she can do is not to hold back or cause trouble.

Then she saw Zhou Shitang's unfamiliar face at a glance, and was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why Zhou Shitang became like this, but now was not the time to ask this.

The most important thing to do now is to get to know the medicinal materials, and we can ask about other trivial matters later when we have time.

Zhou Shitang picked up a medicinal plant and said, "This is Panax notoginseng..."
