187 Searching for Medicinal Herbs on the Mountain

Nanny Sheng was so happy that she cried and laughed. “That’s great, Old Madam!”

Madam Qi did not understand why Nanny Sheng was crying. She used her hand to wipe away Nanny Sheng’s tears, and the smile on her face looked very innocent. “Eat, you should eat too.”

“Yes, I’ll eat too. Old Madam, you can’t use your hands to grab, you have to use chopsticks, like this.” Nanny Sheng had endless patience and took the initiative to teach Madam Qi how to use chopsticks.

madam Qi tried to learn it twice but failed. In the end, she gave up and continued to use her hands to eat.

Gu Qingxue advised, “Nanny Sheng, grandmother hasn’t fully recovered yet. We still need to teach her patiently.”

Nanny Sheng put down her chopsticks, she did not look dejected at all. “I’m already very satisfied with this. The Eldest Miss didn’t know that the Old Madam didn’t even know how to express her hunger or thirst in the past. Every time, it was me who ordered the meals and then fed the Old Madam. Compared to the past, the Old Madam’s condition has improved greatly. It’s all thanks to you!”

Gu Qingxue used a handkerchief to wipe away the crumbs on Madam Qi’s lips. “It’s grandmother’s good fortune. Nanny Sheng, after breakfast, I’ll go to the mountain to look for medicinal herbs. I’ll be back before sunset. I’ll leave the family to you.”

“Mother, are you leaving again? Can you bring us along?” Lingbao blinked her big eyes and asked expectantly.

Lingbao ran over and hugged Gu Qingxue’s thigh. “Mother, Lingbao wants to go too. I promise I’ll be obedient!”

Seeing the two children’s expectant faces, Gu Qingxue’s heart softened immediately. “The mountain road is too rugged and dangerous. Mother can’t take you there. Besides, don’t you want to go to school with your big brother after the New Year? If you don’t have any knowledge in your stomach, the teacher won’t let you go to school.”

Hearing this, Big Black barked in agreement.

“Alright then. Come back soon, mother,” Lingbao said softly as she leaned her head on Gu Qingxue’s thigh.

Gu Qingxue’s heart was extremely soft. She hugged Lingbao and promised that she would come back before dark.

After breakfast, Gu Qingxue went up the mountain to look for the medicine.

As soon as Gu Qingxue stepped out of the house, she heard the voice of the housekeeper in her mind.

“Master, are you going up the mountain to look for the Longevity Fruit this time?”

Gu Qingxue said unhappily, “What else can I do? Exchange it with you for 2000 points?”

In fact, she had looked up a very important medicine in the antidote that she had developed last night. This medicine was called the Longevity Fruit.

It was a very gentle and nouris.h.i.+ng medicinal fruit that could strengthen the body and prolong life.

She had never told Nanny Sheng that her grandmother’s body had been corroded by the poison for so many years and had become very weak.

When she removed the poison, her grandmother’s already weak meridians and internal organs would be further damaged. In the end, even if she removed the poison, her grandmother’s Qi and blood would be weak, causing her life to be greatly reduced.

At that time, the reason why that person did not poison her grandmother in one go was firstly because he was worried that if he did it too obviously, he would be discovered. It was very likely that he wanted to wear down her grandmother’s body through the acc.u.mulation of time.

In this way, even if the poison was removed in the end, her grandmother’s days would not be long.

Moreover, her grandmother’s body was already very weak. It was like a bowstring that was stretched to the limit. As long as she exerted a little strength, it would completely collapse!

As long as it was a tonic, it would inevitably cause a certain effect on the body when it was replenis.h.i.+ng.
