Chapter 111: Ginger and the others must have died in An Coun
is death."My older brother is injured and shouldn't eat chicken legs."Song Jiuchili gave a lame excuse, which was met with the Sixth Prince's icy glare."I ate."Song Jiu's eyes were bloodshot from bein..."Here you go!"
Ginger was so helpful, Su Guanjia was very pleased and hurriedly led the three of them to the backyard.
It wasn't until they were near the backyard that I carefully said to Song Jiubian and the others:
"I'm sorry, gentlemen. There are many women in the back yard. Would you please wait in the flower hall for a moment"
"Okay."
Song Jiubian had already adjusted his mood, and at this moment, he looked normal. He was led to the flower hall by the servants of the county magistrate's office.
And while Ginger followed Manager Su to the backyard, before even entering the house, she heard a demonic laugh.
"Hahahahahahaha…"
"Mother."
The county magistrate's voice was filled with resignation, "Can you still not control your laughter"
"I hahaha...don't want to...hahaha laugh..."
When Jiang Wan walked in, she found that besides Su County Magistrate, there was also an elderly lady in the room.
The old lady's hair was already white, but at this moment she was sitting on the bed laughing out loud, tears welling up in her eyes.
And his neck veins bulged, he seemed on the verge of exhaustion. His laughter shook his whole body.
"Ginger Divine Doctor, you've arrived!"
The county magistrate of Su, excitedly said to Ginger Wan, “My mother these days can’t control her laughter.”
It attacks both day and night, each bout of laughter lasting at least a quarter of an hour, impossible to stop.
"I understand," Ginger Wǎn nodded slightly. "Sir, could you please excuse us I'd like to take a look at the old madam alone."
"Okay."
The county magistrate of Su, with a worried expression, walked out. Jiang Wan took out her silver needle pouch and looked at the old Mrs. Su who was still giggling incessantly.
"Miss... Miss, I...I couldn't help but...laugh."
"I know."
Ginger walked to the bedside and, under Mrs. Su's helpless gaze, lifted the blanket.
As expected, the mattress was soaked through. Her diagnosis was correct; it was pathological laughter. Besides uncontrollable laughing, she also had urinary and fecal incontinence.
...But Old Madam Su didn't want her son to see this disheveled state, so she kept it from him.
"I am now taking your pulse."
Just in case, Ginger still went to the doctor. He had his pulse checked, examined his tongue's color and coating.
"Grandmother, lie down first, I will give you acupuncture."
After Ginger had helped the elder lady dispel the poison with silver needles, she supported her in conversation for a while. Then, she proceeded to administer acupuncture at the points Lie Que and Yong Quan, and finally used Tai Xi for tonification.
After about five minutes, the old woman's laughter gradually subsided. Every fifteen minutes, Jiang Wan would insert a needle.
By the third injection, the old woman's laughter had ceased. Outside, Su County Magistrate sighed, "As expected of the Divine Healer Ginger."
Ginger calmly removed the silver needle, disinfecting it a little. Mrs. Su rubbed her numb facial muscles with a smile.
"Thank you, Doctor Ginger. You're really skilled."
She was in better spirits now that she heard her son had called her over because he was feeling a little better.
"You're welcome."
Ginger smiled and opened the door to let Su County Magistrate come in. Seeing her own mother was no longer laughing, Su County Magistrate's eyes were full of gratitude.
"Ginger God Doctor, thank you so much!"
"You're welcome, it's my duty as a doctor to heal the sick."
Ginger instructed, "Place all the silver needles into the needle case and observe the old lady for another two hours."
If it does not occur again, then it is cured.
"And do I still need to take the soup medicine"
The county magistrate of Su carefully observed his mother's face and was overjoyed.
If you're worried, I'll give her a recipe for a hydrating and yin-nourishing tonic. Boil five bowls of water down to one bowl.
Just as ginger was mentioned, the county magistrate of Su promptly took out paper and ink. Ginger directly wrote a prescription for him.
When sending them off, County Magistrate Su gave Ginger Wan a package. “This official knows that Doctor Ginger is in a hurry to get on the road.”
"I can't bear to let you go either. This is the consultation fee for treating my mother. Thank you so much!"
"You're too kind, it's within my duties."
Jiang Wan's eyes lit up, and she quickly took the package. The smile on her face was genuine for once.
Song Jiubian and Pan Hongyan:
Real estate fanatic!
Upon getting into the carriage, Jiang Wan eagerly opened the package. When he saw the hundreds of taels of silver notes inside, he laughed with glee again.
"This Su County magistrate is quite a meticulous person." Πb.γ
Song Jiubian's gaze fell on the money pouch and dry rations. The pouch contained some silver coins.
It's also convenient for them to use when they are exiled, after all, taking out silver notes is too conspicuous.
Besides, snacks and provisions were also prepared, clearly with some thought put into it.
"This person is definitely worth getting to know!"
Ginger nodded in satisfaction, slipping the silver note into her pocket. She hid it beneath her sleeve and tossed it into her spatial storage.
"Shall we buy some things first and then go back"
As the weather gradually turned cooler, with Song Jiubian around, Jiang Wan wanted to openly prepare some things.
"Okay."
Song Jiuyuan thought the proposal was good, and after discussing it with Pan Hongyan, he went to the market in An County.
However, the impact of Tianhua's actions still lingered. With few shops open, Jiang Wan could only hastily add a few things to their supplies before continuing their journey.
But the atmosphere at the inn wasn't good at this time, and Ren Bang and the others were so anxious that their mouths were foaming. The ranks of officials were already insufficient.
Even with the Sixth Prince's letter, they still felt uneasy, worried that they would be punished if they didn't arrive in the Savage Land on time.
"Boss, we can't delay any longer!"
"Yes, it's been five days already. Song's wife and the others definitely won't be coming back."
"That's not just a common cold, it's measles. How many people can resist that"
...
"As for the head, I think Song's lady would be suitable."
Xiaodeng was full of confidence about ginger WAN, but only he thought so. Even Renbang had hesitation in his eyes.
"My lord, we have no silver left. If this continues, won't you have to solve our food and lodging problems"
Song Erniang spoke rather harshly, her face lit with an excited smile.
They must have died in An County, which is great news!
"Yeah, who knows if they're even alive anymore. We're just wasting our time waiting here."
Song Chen scoffed disdainfully, naturally hoping that Song Jiu Yuan and Jiang Wan would die outside.
"Shut up!"
Song Daniu's eyes turned red with anger, "Wanwan and Yuan'er are definitely fine. They will be back soon."
"Yeah, my sister-in-law is so amazing, she'll definitely be able to solve the smallpox problem!"
Song Jiuli said this with a fierce tone, although she thought Jiang Wan was very capable in her eyes, it was just a matter of luck.
Song Jiuchili glared fiercely at Song Chen and his family, his eyes cold and menacing.
"The magistrate hasn't spoken yet, why are you all in such a hurry"
Song Erniang's face was beaming with pride, her chin held high as if she had achieved a great victory.
"Head!"
With an uneasy expression, he looked at Ren Bang. Ren Bang sighed and, gazing out at the deserted road, suddenly rose to his feet.
"You all rest first, I'll go look for the Sixth Prince."
"My lord!"
Song Dajie, in a hurry, hastily said: "Wait! They'll be back soon. Please wait a little longer."
"Sorry."
Ren Bang glanced at her and raised his foot to go upstairs, just meeting the gaze of the Sixth Prince on the second floor. He lightly raised the corner of his lips and looked at Ren Bang.
"I've kept you waiting for so long, I apologize."aw again"Song Jiuxi drank a mouthful of medicine, the bitterness almost making his eyebrows meet. But his eyes didn't blink, fixed on the carriage that was speeding towards them.Song Jiuci lightly rub...
