Chapter 262: The Little Girl Woke Up

After Jiang Yunchu had fixed the window, she turned back, nodded at that lady, and hurried to the bedside. The one sleeping outside was the old person, probably afraid the little girl would fall off the bed.

She first grabbed the old person's wrist, then took their pulse.

The Deluding Mist concentration was too high, making the old person feel unwell; fortunately we arrived in time, otherwise it could have caused some aftereffects, even endangered their life.

"Madam, please feed this pill to the old lady—three of them."

The lady looked at the pill, then at Jiang Yunchu, and asked, "What does this pill treat? What harm does it have to the body?"

"And... should I believe you?"

She could come in for an examination because so many people were watching outside; if something happened to her, that young master wouldn't be able to get away either.

The second time she could come in to help was because she could act as a witness, which was also reasonable.

But...

"Medicine! Is that something you can just eat? Looking at this young master's age—about twenty—even if he'd studied medicine since childhood, he probably hasn't reached mastery; if this harmed someone, how could she face her conscience?"

"Madam, you can only believe me now."

"This old lady has suffered brain damage from the Deluding Mist and also has high blood pressure; without emergency blood pressure reduction, her brain will suffer irreversible damage."

"My medicine is just a blood-pressure drug I prepared for my great-grandmother; I carry two bottles as spares when I go out."

That's all she can explain; she needs to do acupuncture while taking the medicine.

Time is urgent.

"Blood pressure reduction? Brain injury?" One unfamiliar term after another made the lady furrow her brow.

"Have you decided?" Jiang Yunchu turned back and looked at the lady.

She, torn in an internal struggle, suddenly made up her mind: "I believe you this time."

She stepped forward firmly; Jiang Yunchu curled the corner of her mouth—she hadn't misjudged the person.

Among the many ladies, some had curious eyes, some fearful, some evasive.

Only this lady was open and aboveboard.

So, it could only be her.

"I will now begin acupuncture; when I say 'feed the medicine,' just open the jaw and toss the pill into the mouth."

After Jiang Yunchu finished explaining, the silver needles were inserted one by one into the old lady's head—over twenty of them—making the dignified old lady look like a hedgehog.

At that moment, Jiang Yunchu took out a silver needle, ready, and said, "Feed the medicine."

As soon as she spoke, the lady quickly opened the jaw and threw in three pills.

As the medicine entered the mouth, Jiang Yunchu simultaneously inserted a silver needle into the old lady's wrist, then quickly inserted another into the other wrist.

"The child's condition isn't that serious."

"But acupuncture is also needed to detoxify."

She gave a simple explanation, then quickly inserted the silver needle in her hand, occasionally twisting it with her fingertip.

The lady felt her legs go weak; seeing that it wasn't her concern, she sat directly on the stool, even seeming dazed.

She just...

Believed an outsider's words and fed medicine to a person?

Looking at Jiang Yunchu's calm face, excellent appearance, moist skin, and overall demeanor, she didn't seem like an ordinary child's; hoping she wouldn't become an accomplice to evil.

"Eh..."

A child's body recovers much faster; Jiang Yunchu's silver needle had been in for just half an hour when the little girl slowly woke up.

Jiang Yunchu originally feared she would cry and fuss; although she is eight, every child is different, and having just woken up to see needles all over her and her relatives, she would surely resist.

"Don't be afraid; bad people wanted to harm you, I've already driven them off; now you've been affected by the Deluding Mist, need silver needles to detox, you'll be fine in another quarter hour."

Jiang Yunchu hurriedly explained the cause and effect, so the child could think it through.

Now it's also a case of no alternative.

She isn't afraid the child will pull out her own needle, but fears the child will pull out the old lady's needle; the old lady's condition is somewhat serious, and if the needle is pulled midway, not only would the previous injury worsen, but today's toxic mist would also surge even more.

"Brother, how is Grandma?" The little girl dare not move, but her eyes glance sideways, wanting to see Grandma's condition clearly.

Jiang Yunchu sighed; it's actually a calm child, and having time to listen to the explanation is good.

"Your grandma was injured before; her brain is injured."

"This Deluding Mist greatly affected her brain; I had that lady help feed the medicine and used silver needles to dredge, so for now there's no danger."

After hearing Jiang Yunchu's words, the little girl breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Jiang Yunchu's expression, she admired her even more.

Although she is an older sister, it still doesn't affect her admiration.

"Brother, Grandma was injured before, even forgetting many things; although she gradually remembered later, whenever it's overcast and rainy she always gets headaches."

"We went out this time also to find a renowned doctor for Grandma, but Grandma is too old, and that renowned doctor said there's no medicine that can cure."

When the little girl said this, tears slid from the corners of her eyes; she wanted to tilt her head, but feared the needles wouldn't hold, she didn't dare move, yet also worried about Grandma.

When the lady heard that, her gaze at Jiang Yunchu changed; her previous dazed state also cleared.

Her legs also felt stronger.

"How good is the young master's medical skill?" She had just been doubting herself, wondering if she wouldn't be an accomplice to evil.

I didn't expect that everything the young master said would be spot on; without real skill, one couldn't explain it so clearly.

"Just… so-so…" Jiang Yunchu laughed helplessly.

Occasionally twisting the needle, when the time came she first pulled out the needle from the little girl's head, then softly asked, "Does your head still hurt? Any dizziness or urge to vomit?"

The little girl swayed, then shook her head: "I'm fine, thank you, brother."

This time, if it weren't for this older sister's help, she and her grandmother would likely be in danger; her mother taught her from childhood to repay kindness.

She only gave a light thanks, which naturally doesn't count as repaying kindness.

"Grandma?" But now she's more worried about Grandma's illness; Grandma was already seriously ill, and after this incident her condition might relapse.

She not only failed to cure her grandmother, but also made her grandmother's condition worse.

She is a sensible girl, but after all she is only eight years old, and her mind is not yet mature.

"Your grandmother is fine, don't worry, little girl." Jiang Yunchu smiled, first pulling out the silver needle from the old lady's head, then placing another pill into the old lady's mouth, and finally pulling out the silver needle from her wrist.

At this moment, the old lady's complexion had changed; before it was pallid, and it even felt as if she might die any moment.

But now her complexion is rosy, her breathing steady, as if she had just had a good dream.
