Exile with Storage Space: Family Fortunes in the Barren Lands-Chapter 610 - 0568: Pei Shenyan is the Hidden Tycoon (1)
The villagers watching had never seen such a way of treating illness, and they all looked surprised.
But this was a rescue mission, everyone was curious but no one asked.
Not long after, Wei San woke up.
She saw Li Yuzhu sitting by the bed and cried as she reached out for Li Yuzhu’s hand, "Quickly, go save Sen Lang."
Li Yuzhu looked at her puzzled, "Sen Lang?"
"We... we agreed to do this together..." Wei San cried shaking uncontrollably.
"San Ni, are you alright? San Ni?" Mrs. Wei rushed to the bedside and grabbed her daughter’s hand to ask.
The other Wei Family members also came over to ask about the situation.
However, Wei San closed her eyes, turned her head away, and did not look at her family.
Li Yuzhu said, "She is very weak right now and needs more rest. The toxins in her body have not been completely cleared, and her mind is somewhat unclear. You should not speak to her."
Li Yuzhu saw Wei San reluctant to speak to her family and came over to persuade the Wei Family.
Mrs. Wei nodded, "Alright, alright, let her rest well."
Li Yuzhu persuaded all the neighboring onlookers and the Wei Family to leave, then quietly asked Wei San, "Wei San, what did you say just now?"
Wei San turned her head, crying, "It’s useless, it’s too late."
"Sen Lang? Is it Yang Runsen?" Li Yuzhu asked.
"We agreed to die together, but I survived..." Wei San looked at the roof, "Why did you save me..."
Li Yuzhu was greatly shocked, these two were indeed resolute.
She held Wei San’s hand, "I passed through the village and didn’t hear anything about the Yang Family, it seems Yang Runsen is also fine. You rest well, I’ll go check it out for you."
Wei San wanted to know about Yang Runsen’s situation and dared not seek her death again. She looked at Li San Niang, "Please."
Li Yuzhu nodded and walked out of the room.
She said to Wei Dalang and Mrs. Wei, "She’s in poor spirits and needs more rest. I’ll go handle some matters in the village and come back in a while."
The Wei Family thanked her profusely.
Wei Dalang gave the consultation fee and escorted her to the door.
Li Yuzhu quietly urged Mu Yuanxiu to quickly drive the carriage, and the two hurriedly rushed to the Yang Family.
The Yang Family was also in chaos.
The doorway was similarly crowded with many people watching the commotion.
Li Yuzhu grabbed one of them and asked, "What’s going on here?"
"Yang Dalang, for some reason, suddenly swallowed rat poison," an old woman shook her head.
"Can he be saved?" Li Yuzhu hurriedly asked.
She thought to herself, these two really are committing suicide out of love.
"I don’t know, they’re trying to rescue him," the old woman shook her head with a sigh, "Yang Dalang’s life is really bitter."
Li Yuzhu squeezed into the Yang Family’s door and ran towards the crying sounds.
Several people stood at the doorway of one room in the Yang Family, inside, Yang’s mother was loudly crying.
The room had an unpleasant smell, just like at the Wei Family.
Li Yuzhu went over and examined Yang Runsen on the bed, looking half-dead, much like Wei San.
She sighed inwardly, truly a pair of star-crossed lovers.
"Let me take a look," Li Yuzhu glanced at Yang Runsen and said to Yang’s mother.
The village doctors, faced with such poisoning patients, used the old method of inducing vomiting.
They mixed soap mud into a thick paste and forced it into the patient’s mouth to make them vomit out the poison.
If the poison wasn’t too strong or had just been swallowed, this method was effective for inducing vomiting. But if the poison was strong and had been swallowed for a long time, it could only be left to fate.
The modern treatment method is to inject medication into the body to counteract the toxins.
The doctor hired by the Yang Family was an old man from the village, with only half a bowl’s worth of skills. He had induced vomiting several times for Yang Runsen, but Yang Runsen still hadn’t awoken.
He was in the basin, kneading the soap mud, and was calling for the Yang Family to give Yang Runsen another bowl.
Li Yuzhu suddenly spoke, surprising and delighting Yang’s mother. She turned to see that it was Li Yuzhu, Pei Shenyan’s sister-in-law from the Wei Family.
Although she was just a relative of Pei Shenyan from the Wei Family, she was someone close to the Wei Family. Yang’s mother was a bit unwilling to let Li Yuzhu treat Yang Runsen.
"No need, isn’t there already a doctor here?" Yang’s mother said coldly.
"This method won’t work. If delayed further, the toxins will enter the liver and organs; even an immortal cannot save him," Li Yuzhu said.
Yang’s mother was scared by her words, her expression changed.
Yang’s father on the side was willing to let Li Yuzhu come to the rescue.
He said, "Alright, as long as you save my son, I’ll double the consultation fee."
Li Yuzhu glanced at the old doctor and said, "There’s no need to induce vomiting again. Yang Dalang has already expelled everything from his stomach. The priority now is to clear the toxins from his blood."
She took an injection out of her backpack and hung it on a hook on the bedpost.
Rolling up her sleeves, she walked to the bedside to first check Yang Runsen’s five senses.
The poison affecting Yang Runsen was more severe than that of Wei San’s. He was in a deep coma, his body convulsing.
After performing CPR on him, Yang Runsen gained a faint sense of awareness. To prevent him from biting his tongue, Li Yuzhu picked up a cloth from the bedside and put it in his mouth for him to bite down on.
Then, Li Yuzhu administered him an intravenous injection.
Similarly, everyone was curious about Li Yuzhu’s treatment methods.
The old doctor asked Li Yuzhu where the transparent bottle came from and what it contained.
Li Yuzhu, busy checking Yang Runsen’s poisoning condition, took some of his blood and was running tests with space equipment, casually replied, "It’s detoxification."
"Isn’t this just plain water?" The old doctor was very surprised.
"Special medicine was added to it," Li Yuzhu explained.
Unlike other doctors who often criticized Li Yuzhu’s unusual methods, this old doctor was full of admiration, "The younger generation is truly formidable. When we were young, the medical arts we learned didn’t include such methods."
After the medicine injection, after two moments, Yang Runsen finally woke up.
The Yang Family was very happy, repeatedly thanking Li Yuzhu.
Uncle Yang handed over a large string of money as a token of gratitude.
Li Yuzhu said, "Although he’s awake, he still needs to continue taking medicine. Only by thoroughly removing the toxins in his body can he be considered cured."
She handed some medicine pills to Yang’s mother, instructed how to take them, and also advised on dietary therapy to nourish the stomach.
After vomiting, the diet needs to be rearranged; hard-to-digest foods are not to be eaten at all.
"Li San Niang." Yang Runsen, seeing his noisy family beside the bed, wore an expression of disgust and weakly called out Li Yuzhu’s name.
Li Yuzhu walked to the bedside, "Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"
"There is something I want to tell you alone." Yang Runsen closed his eyes, speaking weakly.
Li Yuzhu nodded, turned to the Yang Family, "Please step outside for a moment."
She had saved Yang Runsen, and the Yang Family was grateful to her, so they all followed her words and went outside.
Mu Yuanxiu did not leave and sat down by the bed.
He and Li Yuzhu were together, and Yang Runsen glanced at him but said nothing.
Li Yuzhu closed the door and walked to the bedside, "Okay, no one else is here, go ahead and speak."
"Go to the Wei Family and see Wei San, she..."
"She is fine." Li Yuzhu said, "We just came from her house, and she urged me to come see you."
Yang Runsen breathed a sigh of relief, the tension on his face disappeared.
"However, it’s far from good," Mu Yuanxiu looked at him, saying coldly, "If a man cannot protect the woman he loves, he should stay away from her; but provoking her like this almost got her killed."
Yang Runsen’s face turned pale again, "It’s my fault, ... I have tried several times to persuade San Niang to marry someone else, but she refused. She said she would only consider if I got married first. And I..., because of issues with previous three fiancées, I’ve always been unwilling to marry, which gave her the hope not to give up."
"So, what do you plan to do in the future?" Li Yuzhu was worried that these two who had walked into a dead end might someday do something foolish, "The parents of both families don’t agree with you being together."
Yang Runsen bitterly smiled, "It’s not just disagreement; as long as the two of us are alive, the feud between Wei and Yang Families will never end, and there will always be fights. This time it was about the fields, next time it might be something else. We..., have no other choice."
He sighed and began to explain the feud between the families to Li Yuzhu and Mu Yuanxiu.
When Yang Runsen was three years old, one day, he followed village companions to play near the Wei Family home.
The other companions went back first, leaving him playing in the ditch next to the Wei Family’s house until it got dark before he came home.
He had just returned when the Wei Family came claiming that their three chickens had been killed by him.
Yang’s mother said he was only three, too young to know anything, how could he have killed the three roosters of the Wei Family?
The Yang Family refused to compensate.
The women of both families went from arguing to fighting.
From then on, a feud was formed.
A few years later, the Yang Family’s rice paddies suddenly collapsed overnight, while the Wei Family’s fields were unaffected.
The Yang Family accused the Wei Family of ruining their rice paddies, leading to more quarrels and fights.
Later, sixteen-year-old Yang Runsen got engaged.
On the day of the engagement, the Wei Family had a third daughter, Wei San. Unlike other newborns who would cry loudly, this child didn’t cry and her face was blue.
The Wei Family invited the village witch to perform a ritual; she claimed Yang Runsen was a curse to the Wei Family.
Out of anger, the Wei Family hung an exorcism charm on the Yang Family’s door.
That night, the newborn daughter of the Wei Family started crying, while a fire broke out at the residence of Yang Runsen’s fiancée, burning her to death.
The Yang Family, knowing about the Divine Talisman hung by the Wei Family, accused them of causing the fiancée’s death.
The feud between the two families escalated from then on.
