Chapter 275 Not necessarily effective

Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head and twirled her fingers in silence.

All those rumors outside were spread by Meng Wan and Jiang Yi. Her reputation was probably completely ruined.

First, she nearly lost her innocence in Meizhuang, then Murong Zi came to her house and asked to marry her even though she was already married, and then this happened.

He could be kidnapped even in his own home.

She could guess what people would say about her without sending anyone to ask.

It's nothing more than fickle.

"I was not prepared. This kind of problem will never happen again in the future." Meng Hun said calmly.

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head. "No, I trusted others too easily. It has nothing to do with my brother..."

"Haha, she said it has nothing to do with you."

Old Qian picked up the teacup with a gloating look, sipped his tea, and looked at the two of them with a smile.

Meng Hun turned his head to look at her, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"How could I!" She was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, her fur instantly exploded, "You old man, stop talking nonsense!"

Mr. Qian ignored her and drank his tea leisurely.

Shen Jiaojiao felt uneasy being stared at, and was also angry that Mr. Qian had no reason to provoke her brother, so she quickly changed the subject.

"My being abducted has nothing to do with Aoxue's unwillingness to study medicine with you. She clearly despises you."

Mr. Qian didn't buy her tricks and continued, "It does matter. She just didn't want to go with me because she was afraid that Mr. Meng couldn't protect you."

Shen Jiaojiao: "..."

Could you please stop mentioning whether to protect or not?
What if I pissed off my brother...

Seeing that she was speechless, Old Qian groaned and said, "I am really worried about your safety. I have prescribed some medicine for you these two days. Take it."

He took out a few bottles of medicine and placed them on the table.

"The names are written on the bottles. If you don't understand, just ask Aoxue. I told her everything."

Shen Jiaojiao quickly glanced at the medicine on the table.

Detoxification pills, Qingxin pills, poison number one, poison number two...

It is indeed a medicine whose purpose can be known just by looking at the name.

"Thank you, Mr. Qian." She put all the medicine bottles into her pocket without any hesitation.

The medicine given by Dr. Qian must be different from those on the market, and may be very useful.

She wouldn't be so stupid as to refuse.

Seeing her behave so confidently, Mr. Qian's awkwardness finally disappeared and he was no longer angry with them.

"Stretch out your hand, I'll feel your pulse."

Since this girl was kidnapped before, she must have been injured, right?
Otherwise, why would Meng Hun look so bad?
He was so reluctant that he couldn't bear to let Shen Jiaojiao walk to the front yard, and insisted that he, an old man, walk on the snow to come.

"Ah? Why do you want to take my pulse?"

She asked questions but her hands didn't stop moving. She quickly put her hand on the table and put a handkerchief on her wrist.

Mr. Qian didn't say anything and took her pulse carefully.

"Huh?" Elder Qian raised his gray eyebrows. "This pulse condition... did you use any medicine?"

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head. "No, I drank the medicine you prescribed last time after I woke up."

"You feel very weak, as if you just had a serious illness. Drinking medicine will not work very well." Old Qian took his hand back and said, "I'll give you an acupuncture this afternoon."

"Okay." She nodded obediently.

Old Qian glanced at her and said, "You should go back first." Then he turned to look at Meng Hun and said, "Meng boy, I have something important to tell you."

"Is there anything you say that I can't listen to?" Shen Jiaojiao puffed up her face, looking a little unhappy.

She also knew about the plague.

Why did Mr. Qian avoid her?
"There are so many things you can't hear. Go away quickly." Mr. Qian didn't tolerate her and waved his hands repeatedly for her to leave quickly.

She turned around and looked at her brother. "Jiaojiao, be obedient."

Meng Hun stood up and walked to her seat, pulled her up, carefully put on her hat and straightened her outer robe, then called Yuzhu from outside to come in.

Seeing that her sworn brother was unwilling to let her stay, she left angrily, saying "leave if you want to."

After the others walked away, Old Qian stared at Meng Hun with a hint of anger in his voice.

"What's going on? Why is she so weak? Has she been infected with the plague?"

Meng Hun sighed, "I don't know."

He had no idea what Shen Jiaojiao had experienced during those two days.

All I heard her say calmly was that she was pushed to the ground by Prince Qing, and seemed to have hit her waist, and then fell off the cliff.

Fortunately, Murong Zi had been protecting her and she was not seriously injured.

Then he fell into a bandit's den...

These are not big problems, except in the farmhouses in the suburbs.

All the bandits were not spared, as they were infected with the plague by the farmer's boy. Two of them have died so far, and the others are not getting better either, and are struggling to survive.

"No wonder..." Old Qian touched the goatee on his chin, narrowed his eyes slightly, and was thinking about something.

"Jiaojiao had a high fever the night she came back. When she woke up, she looked quite energetic. I thought the cold-dispelling medicine you gave her earlier had taken effect..."

"That's impossible. She just recovered from a serious illness and her physical condition is much worse than that of an ordinary person. How can she be fine?"

Mr. Qian pondered for a moment and finally figured out the key.

"The anti-cold decoction is indeed useful and can prevent the plague in the early stages. Shen Jiaojiao was infected with the plague after drinking the decoction, which only shows that... the anti-cold decoction may not be effective."

Meng Hun keenly sensed what Mr. Qian had not yet expressed.

The cure for the plague has not been fully developed and is becoming increasingly difficult to find.

"Can this prescription still be released?"

If the prescription is not released quickly, those who are infected with the plague may die due to lack of treatment.

Elder Qian shook his head. "Don't worry. I'll go look up the information first. Ask Aoxue to keep an eye on her. If you're free in the afternoon, send someone to find me. I'll give her acupuncture."

Meng Hun quickly arranged for someone to send Mr. Qian back to his courtyard so as not to delay Mr. Qian's research time.

Pearl Courtyard.

Shen Jiaojiao rushed back in the heavy snow.

Before entering the house, I heard laughter and chatter coming from inside, and the faint voice of Aoxue talking.

She was overjoyed and immediately shook off Ke Xin and Keying's hands and ran quickly into the main room.

"Aoxue!"

Hearing her voice, Aoxue came out from the inner room, still looking calm and composed.

"Miss is back."

As he said this, he walked forward and brushed the snow off her body.

"Stop filming." Keying came in from behind, "It's warm in the room, the snow will melt quickly, take off your outer robe first."

"Okay." Aoxue nodded, and helped to take Shen Jiaojiao out of the thick outer robe, scolding: "Miss, you are not well yet, why are you running around?"

Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and said, "Look, you just came back and you already know how to teach me a lesson."

"We really shouldn't run around." Keying agreed with Aoxue.

"Well, it seems that I have been too indulgent to you, and now the maids are stepping on the head of a young lady like me."

She pretended to be angry and frightened the maids and servants beside her.

"Please forgive me, young lady!" The servants knelt on the ground in a crowd.

When they saw Aoxue returned safely and brought good news, they all happily gathered around her and talked to her.

Who would have thought that my young lady would come back so soon...
