Chapter 61: Human Blood? Deer Blood?

Translator: CokeZero  Editor: Rainystars

Xie Yunjin’s eyes fixated on the bowl of blood. The nice surprise was blood?

“That is blood? Is it human blood?”

Xie Yunjin narrowed his eyes and slowly raised his head to look at Lu Jiao. Could it be that this woman before him drank human blood?

Lu Jiao’s face blanked out, “Human blood? This is deer blood. You know how I hunted a deer? Before the deer died, I collected this bowl of its blood. Deer blood can nourish the stomach and increase blood flow. Drink up. This is good for your health.”

Lu Jiao shoved the blood into Xie Yunjin’s face. The smell of metal rushed to Xie Yunjin’s head.

His face froze and he subconsciously retreated. He said to Lu Jiao faintly, “I think you need it more than me.”

Who knew where this woman came from? He’s heard that certain ghosts or goblins enjoy drinking blood. So it appeared to him that she needed this blood more than him.

Xie Yunjin pushed the bowl away, “You drink it.”

He then stopped looking. It didn’t matter which animal’s blood it was, he couldn’t stomach it.

Lu Jiao was confused, “Why would I drink deer blood? I got it for you.”

Xie Yunjin’s face was full of disgust. Even his body displayed signs of rejection.

“Thank you. I’m not going to drink it. You should drink it.”

Lu Jiao wanted to slap this guy. Why would she drink deer blood when she was healthy?

“What do you mean by that? Hurry up and drink it.”

Her tone was alluring, similar to the devils who try to lure souls into hell.

Xie Yunjin was determined, “I’m not drinking it. If you want it, you drink it.”

Lu Jiao saw how resolute he was at not wanting to drink this. She looked into the bowl and stared at the red liquid. True, it did look gross. Oh well, she will just cook it with the deer meat then.

Lu Jiao left the room with the deer blood. Behind her, Xie Yunjin watched her leave and fell deep into his thoughts.

Could it be that that woman was going to a desolated place to drink the blood? Deer blood was still blood.

Lu Jiao had no idea what was going through Xie Yunjin’s head. If she knew, she would hit him to death.

Outside the room, Lu Jiao handed the deer blood to Lady Tian, “Mom, this is deer blood. Pour it into the pot and we’ll cook it with the deer meat for lunch.”

Beside her, Lu Gui asked excitedly, “Sister, we’re eating deer meat again for lunch?”

Lu Jiao nodded, “Yeah, that deer is huge, we have so much meat left. If the weather was cooler, I’d make us deer hot pot.”

As excited as Lu Gui was, he felt bad for his dad and his siblings. He remembered that Lu Jiao brought this deer to the Lu family for them. However, because of how they treated Lady Tian, Lu Jiao brought the deer back.

Just then, some people walked in through the gate. They were the Lin family who were just here to ask to see Qi Lei.

The Lin’s saw Lu Jiao and anxiously shouted, “Yunjin’s wife, can you please come with me and take a look at Erdan?”

Lu Jiao thought that was weird, “Isn’t Doctor Qi there?”

Erdan’s mother, Lady Sun, started to cry, “Doctor Qi said he’s not sure what medicine to prescribe. He’s worried that whatever medicine he gives Erdan, won’t help with the fever. If the fever keeps on going, Erdan’s brain may get damaged.”

The thought of her son becoming an idiot made Lady Sun cry out loud.

Everyone from the Lin family stared at Lu Jiao expectantly.

Lu Jiao didn’t decline and said to Lady Tian, “Mom, I’m going to go with them. Keep an eye on Yunjin. If he needs anything, ask Lu Gui to help.”

Lady Tian didn’t speak. Lu Gui however, happily accepted, “Sister, don’t worry, I’ll take care of my brother-in-law.”

By now, he could tell that his sister was a capable being that needed his flattery.

Lady Tian worriedly looked over to Lu Jiao, “Jiaojiao, are you sure you can handle this?”

Though her daughter told her she learned medicine from Grandma Huang, she still felt like it was just a dream. Her daughter’s never mentioned that before!

Lu Jiao comforted Lady Tian, “Mom, don’t worry. Doctor Qi is there. I’m only going to take a look.”

Inside the yard, Soot and Marble were playing with the four children. When they heard the commotion, they all rushed over, “Mom, we’re coming with you.”

“I want to go too!”

Lu Jiao didn’t bring them. Where the Lin family lived was rowdy and she didn’t want the children to get hurt, “I have stuff to do and that’s why I’m going. I’ll bring you next time when I go for fun.”

Lu Jiao then left with the Lin family. The four little ones were sad as they stood inside the yard and watched their mom leave pitifully. The look on their face was as if they’ve been abandoned. Lady Tian felt bad and gathered them around to comfort them.

There were lots of people gathered inside the Lin family’s yard. Right now, everyone was talking about Erdan’s fever.

The Xie Village wasn’t big, and news circulated fast.

Of course, other than the select few who wanted chaos, most people came over out of worry.

Everyone here knew that the Lin family went to get Lu Jiao.

Now, they were all betting whether or not Lu Jiao could cure Erdan.

“I think Yunjin’s wife can do it. She managed to get rid of a ringneck snake’s venom. A fever is nothing in comparison.”

“I think it’s unlikely that she can do anything. Even Doctor Qi from Baohe Tang isn’t confident, how could Yunjin’s wife know what to do? If she knows what to do, then I would be mind blown.”

“It would be nice if she can figure it out. Or else the child’s brain will melt soon.”

Once Lu Jiao arrived, everyone parted a path for her. The Lin family and she walked into the Lin family’s bedroom.

The Lin family was big. Erdan’s parents were the second child of the family and lived in the west room.

Inside the room, Qi Lei was doing a physical exam. When Lu Jiao arrived, he nodded at her and continued his exam.

Once he was done, Lu Jiao asked, “What’s the situation?”

“His fever keeps on coming back. I’m worried it may be caused by something more serious. I checked to see if there are any rashes, but he has none.”

Qi Lei stepped aside so Lu Jiao could take a look. Lu Jiao walked up and first checked Erdan’s pulse, then did a physical exam as well. Once she was done, she turned to look at Qi Lei.

Qi Lei sighed, “Nothing?”

Lu Jiao shook her head, “If I figured it out, would you be embarrassed?”

The Lin family nervously asked, “Yunjin’s wife, you figured it out? What’s wrong with Erdan?”

Lu Jiao lifted Erdan’s shirt and pressed his stomach with one hand while her other hand gently hit it. Everyone heard rather loud thuds from the hitting.

Lu Jiao asked the Lin family, “It’s been a while since he’s used the washroom?”

The family didn’t understand and exchanged glances. Lu Jiao clarified, “It’s been a while since he took a dump?”

Erdan’s mother, Lady Sun, nodded, “That’s right.”

“Have you been eating a lot of meat lately? This caused him to be constipated. Due to constipation, a lot of heat is trapped inside his body, which caused a fever. To heal, he must take some laxatives. Once he poops, his temperature will drop. You don’t need medicine that tackles a fever directly.”
