Chapter 0055 – The Eve (2 / 2)

“Wangxuan, taste this!” Xiaolan covered her nose with a scarf and half-squatted in front of Wangxuan’s bed, the bowl in her hand, tears in her eyes, “This is half a Blood Swallow I shunned from the Great Young Grandmother, they all say it’s a good thing, if you eat it, you might be cured.”

However, in a few days, Wang Xuan’s originally round and pleasing face had become thin and abnormal.

Xiaolan watched as the anger in his body was rapidly disappearing, but Wangxuan’s daily food and medication are vomiting, and nothing can be supplemented, and his body is even more decrepit.

Wang Xuan’s face was grayed out, but he forced himself to smile and said, “Sister Xiaolan is bluffing me again, what kind of good stuff, isn’t it the stuff that the great young granny doesn’t want and throws out?”

Xiaolan was told off by him, but she wasn’t ashamed, she almost pleaded, “You believe me, it’s really good stuff, I’ve picked them out one by one with my heart. You just take a sip!”

“Xiaolan be good, put it somewhere, I’ll drink it later.” Wang Xuan coaxed, “You haven’t brought your scarf tightly enough, be careful of Sister Xiang Cai coming over to scold you later.”

Xiaolan hastily re-posted the scarf on the lower half of her face again tightly, but a few more moments of panic came over her heart.

At first, the doctor only said that Wang Xuan was infected with ordinary wind-cold, and that it would be good for him to take some medicine to dissipate the heat, and then rest and take tonic.

But obviously they did as they were told, but Wang Xuan’s body never got better.

However, in a few days’ time, all the doctors in Jiangzhou City have been invited, and the consultation fees of the doctors are getting more and more expensive day by day, and the prices of medicinal materials outside are also soaring, but they still can’t cure Wangxuan’s disease.

Some people in the side yards of the Chen Mansion have also started to get infected with the “wind chill” that cannot be cured. They didn’t have a generous master like Chen Zian, and they didn’t have the money to seek treatment, so they could only get through it on their own.

This morning, the Chen residence has begun to have slaves die of illness. The stewards just wrapped the unlucky servant boy in a layer of white cloth, then carried him out through the corner door and threw him into a mass grave.

I wonder if one day it will be Wang Xuan who carries it out.

Thinking like this, Ran’s tears could barely stop flowing.

Wang Xuan gently said, “Don’t cry, Sister Xiaolan. Have you helped me to inquire today, on the side of the Su Wang Mansion, is there any news?”

“I have Sister Tohka Capsicum-“

Ran was about to open her mouth when she heard a familiar female voice ghosting from behind her.

“The Sukhwang Palace has a tight news blackout–“

Xiang Capsicum limped into the house, unlike the usual calm color, she had a lot more dust on her body, and the corner of her forehead was slightly bruised.

Chen Zisheng today also do not know what madness, yesterday also because she invited herself to close the door and anger, today even ordered people to guard her house, she had no choice but to jump out of the back window.

She shielded her mouth and nose tightly with a scarf and handkerchief, revealing only a pair of compassionate eyes.

“–But the Su Wang Mansion has already begun to purchase medicinal herbs on a large scale, and has invited Imperial Doctor Xu to sit in on it, so I’m afraid there’s something wrong with one of the masters in the mansion.”

“Good! Good!”

Wang Xuan laughed out loud, and before long, he coughed violently again, viciously spitting out a mouthful of dirty blood.

But after vomiting blood, Wang Xuan’s face glowed with a bright radiance, “Sister Xiang Capsicum, I’m suddenly very good myself, my body is full of inexhaustible strength!”

This is the phase of returning to the light!

Xiang Capsicum hurriedly went forward to check and rolled up Wang Xuan’s sleeve, and was shocked, “This, this – a large blood spot has begun to appear under your skin, what you’ve got isn’t a wind chill at all, it’s a strange disease from outside the city!”

Wang Xuan smiled, seemingly not surprised.

Amidst Xiaolan’s cries of alarm, Wangxuan suddenly rolled over and rolled off the bed, his head knocking heavily toward Xiang Capsicum: “Wangxuan knows that he doesn’t have long to live, but please, Sister Xiang Capsicum, let me have a look at the Second Young Master again!”

At the sound of a clunk, Ran let go of the porcelain bowl in her hand in a daze.

The bowl of blood swallows, which she couldn’t afford to drink, fell to pieces on the floor.
