Chapter 80 - 80 Temporarily Recovered
80 Temporarily Recovered
She was still walking towards the old house when she saw the few babies sitting side by side on the threshold. Coincidentally, San Bao raised her head and looked over. As soon as she met her eyes, she immediately jumped up and shouted, “Big Brother, Mother is back!”
She shouted as she ran over, and the babies, who were slow to react, followed her.
“What’s wrong? Why are you all sitting on the threshold in a daze? Are you all… waiting for me?”
Mo Ruyue only managed to guess the babies’ intentions halfway through her sentence.
“Mother, you’ve been gone for the whole day.”
San Bao was the first to reach Mo Ruyue. She made an emergency brake when she was one step away from Mo Ruyue. As she said that, she scratched the back of her head in embarrassment.
“I also left for a day before.”
Mo Ruyue’s words were a little stiff. She suddenly realized that her babies had been waiting for her and worried about her when she left home.
She didn’t care much about this at first. She just didn’t want her babies to go down the wrong path, but since when did they get used to caring about each other?
In the next few days, Uncle Liu followed the carriage a few more times. After making sure that Mo Ruyue could drive the carriage herself, he stopped following.
Every day, Mo Ruyue would drive out before dawn and try to finish the treatment before noon to get home. In the afternoon, she would go into the mountains to pick as many herbs or hunt as much game as possible. After all, she had signed an agreement with guanglai building to supply game.
However, there was not enough time every day. She could not go deep into the mountains to hunt for large prey. She could only earn very little money by relying on those hares and pheasants.
Mo Ruyue was a little regretful now. Although she had received sixty silver notes in one go, it was still a little too troublesome compared to the time and energy she had to spend every day.
What made her most displeased was that the way the county magistrate looked at her was becoming more and more unbridled. She really didn’t know if she would one day directly punch him in the face and be charged with the crime of assaulting an official of the imperial court.
It was also because of this kind of running back and forth without seeing the sun in the morning and evening that the time Mo Ruyue spent with the babies was sharply reduced. However, the babies had already developed a good habit of self-discipline under Mo Ruyue’s supervision. They did their morning and evening homework every day and prepared three meals a day by themselves. They managed the house well.
After Mo Ruyue came back from the treatment of the county magistrate’s wife on the first day, she began to prepare the green ointment. She didn’t expect that there was an herb that could only be found in the deep mountains. She didn’t have time to pick it, so she could only use it temporarily to plant a backup herb in her interspace.
After countless experiments, Mo Ruyue found that the spring water in the space not only had the effect of ripening plants, preventing diseases and curing diseases, but even the herbs and vegetables watered with the spring water had a much better effect and taste than those that were naturally grown outside the space.
She consciously controlled the use of the herbs produced in the space, because the improvement of the efficacy of the medicine would make the healing effect of the same medicine undergo a qualitative change, and even the healing time would be greatly shortened.
Although this would solidify her title as a “Divine Doctor”, it would also attract many unnecessary covetous eyes. It would be even more troublesome if she attracted special attention and someone analyzed that there was something that could enhance the effectiveness of herbs.
Although he had no choice but to use the medicine in the medium this time, Mo Ruyue had also made appropriate adjustments to the original dosage, trying to reduce its amazing efficacy to a level where it would not attract too much attention.
The newly concocted ointment was darker in color than the original, but it was still transparent and colorless when she dug it out. Not only did it not have any unpleasant smell of Chinese medicine, but it also had a faint floral fragrance.
It was just a change of medicine, but it produced such an effect. This also made Mo Ruyue more convinced that the herbs in this space couldn’t be easily taken out to use. Even if they were to be used, they must be appropriate.
Mo Ruyue had originally said that she would save a bottle for the county magistrate’s wife after the new ointment was concocted. However, the effect of the new ointment was too magical. She could only change the original bottle to a smaller one and reduce the amount to only enough for three days to prevent the county magistrate’s wife from getting addicted to it.
“Lady Qin, I have to say that your medical skills are God-like! It’s only been a few days. In the past, the scabs on my body would only soften and fall off in the cold late autumn, but after your treatment, they’ve started to soften. ”
“Moreover, the ointment you left me has a faint floral scent that doesn’t dissipate even after applying it. It smells much better than medicine. Lady Qin, if I had met you a few years earlier, I don’t know how much less pain I would have suffered.”
Liu Wangshi was receiving Mo Ruyue’s acupuncture treatment. When the silver needle was inserted, there would be a little stabbing pain, but as the silver needle was twisted, the stabbing pain would turn into a cool air that flowed around the body. Especially after the original painful and itchy place was wrapped by the cool air, it was as if something had melted and slowly the pain and itch disappeared.
In the second half of each treatment, the cool feeling would gradually turn into a warm current, and then her body would start to heat up and sweat. When she withdrew the needles, her whole body would be like being fished out of water. At this time, she would take a medicinal bath. It was as if she could feel the medicinal liquid entering her body through her skin and gradually taking effect.
“Madam, it’s not that my medical skills are superb, but that I found the right prescription. I can only achieve the best and fastest healing effect by cooperating with the diet, medication, rest, and other aspects.”
Mo Ruyue paused for a moment as if she was considering her words. Then, she said, “I originally expected that the treatment would only be effective after one course of treatment. Now, it seems that the effect of this treatment far exceeds my expectations. I should be able to recover temporarily very soon.”
“A temporary recovery? What’s the meaning of this?”
Liu Wangshi was initially very excited when she heard the first half of the sentence, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, she was so surprised that she wanted to stand up and turn around.
“Don’t move. Don’t move when you’re performing acupuncture. Otherwise, you’ll damage your acupuncture points and meridians. That’s much harder to treat than skin diseases. It might even be impossible to cure!”
Mo Ruyue wasn’t just trying to scare Liu Wangshi. There was really someone who moved randomly during acupuncture. Although the silver needle was soft, it was pierced into the body by a sudden force, which directly damaged the meridians, causing the person who received the acupuncture to become paralysed.
Liu Wangshi was initially a little scared when she saw herself being pricked with silver needles. It was only because the effect of the acupuncture was not bad that she gradually forgot that fear. Now that Mo Ruyue said this, she suddenly didn’t dare to move.
Although she didn’t dare to move her body, she still didn’t forget to ask. After all, Mo Ruyue had just said that she would recover temporarily, which made Liu Wangshi still hold a grudge.
“Lady Qin, what did you mean by what you just said? Will it relapse?”
“I’ve told you that a skin disease needs a long period of treatment to be completely cured, especially when there will be repeated relapses. Not only will it torture the body, but it will also torture your spirit and will.”
