Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1240: Poisoned

The doctor invited from outside came soon.

After they showed Gao Han, they only said that he was frightened, overly worried, and suffered from some wind and cold, which led to high fever.

Mrs. Gao was concerned about her son's health and relied heavily on the doctor.

However, during his time in northern Xinjiang, Gao studied pharmacology and helped wounded soldiers heal.

She has general pharmacological knowledge.

After seeing the prescription, she knew something was wrong.

So she took advantage of the doctors to cook the medicine and secretly invited one of the doctors to go to the next room alone on the pretext of feeling her pulse.

When the doctor walked in, she stretched her wrist on the table and covered it with silk: "Doctor, I have been feeling uncomfortable. Please help me take a look."

When the doctor saw that her face was rosy and she didn't have any illness, he frowned slightly, showing a suspicious look.

But he still stretched out his hand to take Gao's pulse.

After a while, he respectfully replied: "The young lady is not seriously ill, but she is a little sleep deprived. I will prescribe some tranquilizers for the girl to take, and she will be fine."

He called her young lady, not the girl from the Gao family.

Mrs. Gao raised her lips and said, "I admire the doctor's superb medical skills."

The doctor stroked his beard and said slowly: "Young madam, you are overrated. I am not a sage in Xinglin. I have just been sitting in court for decades and accumulated some experience."

Gao's smile subsided: "Doctor, you have been sitting in court for decades, and you must be used to seeing all kinds of things in the world. However, no matter how grim the situation is, if doctors who save lives and heal the wounded still regard human life as trivial, then can this world be considered a human world? ?”

The doctor looked a little surprised, but he still pretended not to know the deeper meaning of Gao's words: "I don't quite understand what the young lady means."

Mrs. Gao took out his prescription and put it on the table: "I have read the prescriptions of the other doctors, and they are almost the same as those prescribed by the doctor who raised me at home."

"Only yours, doctor, is slightly different. On the surface, it is a prescription for reducing fever and analgesia. However, there are several herbs in this prescription that have detoxification effects."

The doctor was shocked: "Can the young lady see it?"

Mrs. Gao nodded slightly: "The doctor is determined to save my brother, so he uses these medicines. I understand this."

"But doctor, you clearly saw something was wrong with my brother, but why didn't you say a word? If I hadn't taken your prescription, wouldn't my brother..."

The doctor was startled when he heard this, and then his face became full of shame: "Young madam, it's not that I regard human life as trivial and don't take it seriously. It's true that I have no choice but to suffer."

"The poison is so obvious that it can be easily detected. The doctor maintained by the Guigui Mansion, as well as the other doctors, treat it as a normal fever."

"If you think about it for a moment, you will know that the water is deep. If you meddle in other people's business and treat the young master as if he is poisoned and not just an ordinary fever, what will be the consequences?"

"Several doctors have the same opinion. Only Lao Cao has other opinions. Not to mention whether he can win the trust of the master, but if something goes wrong, only Lao Cao will bear the blame."

"The old man has a family and is really... he has more energy than strength, so he can only use these medicines that can reduce fever and detoxify. I hope it can help the young master..."

Gao was fully aware of the doctor's embarrassment.

The water in a wealthy family is deep and cannot be easily involved. Only by keeping one's mouth shut and protecting oneself wisely can one survive.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Gao stood up and bowed deeply to the doctor:

"Now that I have seen it, I ask the doctor not to have any scruples and inform me of my brother's condition. This is a living human life. Please don't let him wither."

The doctor hesitated for a moment and then said:

"The young master was poisoned by datura, and the poison of datura can cause fever and other symptoms. In addition, the young master drank some medicine and restrained the poison of datura, so it looks very similar to an ordinary cold. .”

"Fortunately, the dose is not large and will not be life-threatening. However, if the poison is not detoxified in time, even if the person comes back, he will have sequelae such as memory loss, slurred speech, visual impairment, and numbness of the limbs."

When Mrs. Gao heard this, her expression didn't change much.

But deep in her heart, there was so much hatred that it seemed to annihilate her.

She originally thought that the reason why her younger brother became like this was because he inhaled some hallucinogenic incense and Gao Sheng's threats, which made him suffer from excessive panic and illness.

But he never thought that Gao Sheng also used poison.

If it is not discovered in time, even if the little brother is rescued, his life will be ruined.

Not to mention inheriting the family business.

As for Gao Sheng's behavior, his father also agreed.

Thinking of this, Mr. Gao gritted his teeth.

But she had to suppress all her anger.

She bowed deeply and said, "Doctor, please save this little brother's life."

The doctor didn't rush to answer.

Gao knew his concerns, so he quickly said: "I will keep this matter secret and will never involve you."

The doctor was silent for a while and finally sighed:

"I will first prescribe an antidote to the young master. How can I get the young master to take it? How can I hide it from other doctors? I can't do anything about it."

"In addition, while the young master is taking this medicine, he must not take other medicines. If there is a slight mistake, his life will be at risk. Remember." After speaking, the doctor quickly wrote down two prescriptions.

One post is a tranquilizer for her.

The other post is a detoxification prescription.

Mrs. Gao quickly thanked you: "Doctor, you are so kind to me. I will never forget you."

The doctor sighed: "Young lady, you're welcome."

After saying that, the doctor picked up the medicine box and prepared to leave.

Mrs. Gao stopped him: "Doctor, stay."

The doctor asked: "Madam, is there anything else you can do?"

"I want something from you." Gao took a step closer and whispered a few words in the doctor's ear in a low voice.

The doctor hesitated for a while, then took something out of the medicine box, handed it to Mrs. Gao, and then left.

Mrs. Gao put away the prescription for Gao Han.

She opened the door and walked out, arranged for the old woman to pay several doctors' medical fees, and asked people to send them away from the house.

After doing all this, she turned and went into the small kitchen to cook some medicine.

After a while, Doctor Li, who was raised at home, walked in.

He saluted Mr. Gao, then went to open the medicine jar and check the medicine Gao had boiled.

Mrs. Gao looked anxious and asked in a low voice: "Doctor, is this medicine cooked correctly?"

The doctor smiled and said: "That's right, the girl took the trouble."

Mrs. Gao was relieved, turned around, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to the doctor: "My mother and I are extremely anxious about my little brother's illness."

"The reason why I hired a doctor from outside was because I was in urgent need of treatment. I thought there might be some home remedies that could help my brother get rid of the fever as soon as possible. I didn't mean to distrust the doctor."

"The doctor has worked hard for this family for many years, and you have taken care of the whole family. This time, you have been troubled because of your little brother's affairs."

"Please drink this cup of tea and rest for a while. I will continue to rely on you for my little brother's condition."

The doctor even said he didn't dare, but his brows were filled with pride.

He picked up the tea and drank it.

But just as he was about to put down the tea cup, he met Gao's condensed eyes.

His heart tightened, and then he heard Gao's cold voice: "Does it taste good?"

Just when he was still a little confused, the tea cup in his hand fell uncontrollably.

The next moment, his limbs began to twitch and he vomited violently.

It was actually a sign of poisoning.

Mrs. Gao slowly sat on the chair, her calm eyes falling on the doctor.

She just watched, watching the doctor writhing in pain, but could not say anything; watching the doctor vomiting incessantly, in great pain.

There was neither sadness nor joy in her eyes.

Some people outside wanted to come in, but they were sent away by the old grandma.

In this small kitchen, it was clear that people were coming and going outside, but the doctor couldn't hold on to any hope.

The doctor just twitched and vomited from time to time.

The whole process lasted for less than half an hour, and the symptoms became slightly calmer.

Seeing this, Mrs. Gao said quietly: "This Datura is really good. Even Doctor Li, you can't detect this colorless and odorless poison."

When Dr. Li heard this, he was filled with fear: "You..."

Gao laughed lightly: "The doctor doesn't know something. When I went north to collect my husband's bones, I often followed the military doctors to treat the injured soldiers."

"In the blood-fire frontier where there is a shortage of medical treatment and medicine, datura is of great use. The soldiers use it for pain relief and anesthesia, so I am most familiar with this medicine."

"I think the doctor is used to living a good life, so he doesn't have much contact with this kind of poison. Not only does he not know that my little brother has been poisoned, but you also don't know anything about the poison in the tea cup."

The doctor clenched his clothes tightly, endured the severe pain, and with the last bit of consciousness, he asked in a hoarse voice: "What on earth do you want to do?!"

Mrs. Gao stood up slowly, walked to Doctor Li step by step, and said slowly: "I want to see how far you can go to save yourself."
