Exile with Storage Space: Family Fortunes in the Barren Lands-Chapter 702 - 655: Peculiar Medical History (1)

Although this poison is quite subtle, it’s not too hard to find with careful examination.

The first prescription by the Envoy was for treating stomach discomfort, but the subsequent medication was for treating drowsiness.

The first prescription was not wrong; the herbs used were very appropriate, and the dosage was correct.

If taking the medication from this prescription could cause issues, then the problem lies in the dispensing, and the doctor did not verify the drug dosage.

The clerk who dispensed the medicine added too much of the raw Bianxia.

And consuming large amounts of raw Bianxia is equivalent to slow suicide.

It keeps the person in a persistent coma, exacerbating stomach pain, and over time, it could be fatal.

Li Yuzhu set down the prescription and quickly started the space instrument to monitor Baili Huang’s heart rate and blood pressure, as well as checking his intestines and stomach.

Through the space’s medical equipment, she clearly saw that Baili Huang’s intestines and stomach were already severely ulcerated, a result of improper medication.

Li Yuzhu furrowed her brows slightly, took out an injection from her backpack, and administered the antidote to Baili Huang.

Like the others, when they saw the clear liquid bag Li Yuzhu took out, everyone was very puzzled.

They saw the needle inserted into the vein, and no blood seeped out, which made Old Madam Baili and the two Chang Sui even more bewildered.

Li Yuzhu explained to them simply, "The patient has taken a large amount of various medications, causing some to interact and produce toxins, keeping him in a coma. I’m detoxifying him. The oral Detoxification Pills work too slowly, so I’m directly injecting the antidote into his body. He will wake up shortly."

Hearing her explanation made sense, Old Madam Baili breathed a sigh of relief, "That’s good, that’s good."

At this time, the older Chang Sui spoke up, "The Second Master’s prescriptions were all researched by doctors, how could they be poisonous?"

This Chang Sui, in his thirties, felt superior due to his age and experience, and did not take the young Li Yuzhu seriously.

But because Li Yuzhu had saved Baili Rui, Old Madam Baili had great admiration for her and was dissatisfied, saying, "Even a doctor suspected the Second Master was poisoned earlier, and you’re not a doctor, so how can you question the doctors’ methods?"

Chang Sui, reprimanded, dared not speak further and lowered his head, "Yes..."

But he was still discontented in his heart, glancing at Li Yuzhu with disdain curling his lips.

Baili Huang’s intestines and stomach weren’t a problem initially, but strange medicines had tormented them into ulcers. When writing the prescription, Li Yuzhu was extremely cautious, minimizing the dosage and also including some medicinal food supplements.

Treating the intestines and stomach can’t rely solely on medication; nurturing is key. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

The best way to "nurture" is through dietary supplements.

After finishing the prescription, she handed it to the older Chang Sui, "Bring the medication for me to check once it’s prepared."

No more mistakes can occur.

The Chang Sui glanced at her, agreed, and stepped back.

The injection worked quickly, and Baili Huang woke up in less than half an hour.

He opened his bewildered eyes and stared at the bedside, "Mother?"

Old Madam Baili, upon hearing the long-awaited voice, became so emotional her eyes reddened, and she trembled, "Second Son, you finally woke up."

In the past month, Baili Huang was not always unconscious but fell into intermittent comas. He clearly knew the family’s worry and concern due to his condition.

"Sorry to have worried you, Mother." Baili Huang sighed in deep apology, lifting the quilt to get out of bed.

Old Madam Baili waved her hands repeatedly, "You’ve been asleep for so long; your body is weak. Don’t move, stay lying down. Your father and I will handle anything necessary."

"How is Ruirui’s mother?" Baili Huang looked towards his wife’s main room, asking with concern.

After he fell ill and bedridden, he repeatedly instructed the family not to let his wife know he was sick.

The loss of their son was a blow that weakened his wife, and if she found out he was ill too, she might not endure.

He felt he had let down his wife by not finding their son, and he didn’t want to cause her more pain.

Old Madam Baili pressed down the quilt, smiling, "There’s good news, Second Son."

Baili Huang asked joyfully, "Is Ruirui’s mother better?"

Old Madam Baili smiled, "Her condition is still the same. It’s Xiao Rui who has returned. He’s unharmed, alive, and has grown a lot. Since Xiao Rui’s mother fell ill over losing him, with him back now, she should recover soon, and your family can reunite."

Indeed, it was great and wonderful news!

Baili Huang was very excited, "Where is Xiao Rui? Where is he?"

"He’s playing with his elder brother. Don’t worry; I’ve sent people to follow him. He’s just playing in the mansion and won’t get lost again." Old Madam Baili smiled again.

Baili Huang took a long, relieved breath, his long-ill, haggard face becoming more animated with a smile.

Old Madam Baili introduced Li Yuzhu, telling her second son Baili Huang that Li Yuzhu’s family rescued Baili Rui, and as a doctor, her good medicine and excellent medical skills were why Baili Huang could wake up.

Baili Huang finally paid attention to the young woman sitting at the bedside.

He looked at Li Yuzhu, puzzled, "Lady, we seem to have met before?"

Li Yuzhu thought to herself it was because she increasingly resembled Princess Consort Luling.

Though the Baili family lived near the borders, upon taking office, the new Envoy would go to the Capital to report to the Emperor, and both Baili Huang and his father had some acquaintance with Prince Luling’s family.

At that time, she was young and unqualified to see high-status guests, so the Baili father and son didn’t notice her.

Li Yuzhu couldn’t reveal her identity, so she smiled, "The Envoy must be mistaken. I’ve always lived in the south; this is my first time in Liangzhou."

"No, no, it wasn’t in the south where I saw you; it was in the Capital. Which family in the Capital is Li San Niang related to?" Baili Huang scrutinized Li Yuzhu’s features.

Li Yuzhu still refused to admit, smiling, "There are many people in the world, and many look alike. You must have the wrong person, Sir."

She refused to acknowledge it.

Always questioning a young lady’s identity was quite impolite, so Baili Huang apologized, "I was disrespectful; I hope Li San Niang wouldn’t hold it against me."

"I don’t mind; Sir doesn’t need to worry about it." Li Yuzhu smiled.

.

With the backbone of the family, Baili Huang awake, the entire Baili Mansion was delighted.

Old Master Baili gathered the elder son’s family and three grandsons in Baili Huang’s study room.

Old Madam Baili also came, holding Baili Rui’s sister, Baili Xin.

The carefree and jovial Baili Dalang Baili Ju asked Baili Huang cheerfully, "Second Brother, you’ve been ill for so long and asleep for so long; your body must be weak. Tell Big Brother whatever you want to eat, and I’ll have the cook make it for you."

Old Madam Baili looked stern, "Your Second Brother just woke up; he can’t eat many things yet. Don’t bring alcohol or meat to him, or it’ll make his stomach worse again."

Baili Ju felt embarrassed and said, "Yes, yes, I forgot about that. Hehe, then we’ll wait until Second Brother is much better."

Baili Rui dashed over to Baili Huang’s bedside, "Father."

His sister, just over two years old, Baili Xin, smiled as well, asking, "Father!"

"It’s my fault for being so weak, being sick for so long without spending time playing with you." Baili Huang reached out his hand to them.

The kids, just happy their father could talk to them, smiled wide.

The plump woman, Madam Baili, then said, "Second Brother has finally woken; now we’re just waiting for Sister-in-law to recover. Oh, come on, did she really have to fall ill over the lost child? If she hadn’t, she could have taken care of Second Brother. Second Brother is the pillar of our family!"

Old Madam Baili frowned, "Can’t you say a few words less?"

Madam Baili blinked, looking innocent, "Mother, I didn’t say anything wrong," she insisted. "That’s what happened."

Old Madam Baili turned her head away, her face darkened with anger, not wanting to talk to her.

Envoy BaiLi Huang had only just woken up recently and was still weak, so he needed rest to recover. The family understood and decided to let him rest.

Baili Rui and Baili Xin, caring about their ailing father, said, "Father, please get better soon, we’re going out to play first."

The two children waved to their father and left the bedroom, each holding one of Old Madam Baili’s hands.

Baili Huang felt emotional, thinking that for the sake of his two children, he had to recover quickly.

The older Chang Sui returned with the prescribed medicinal herbs for Baili Huang.

Altogether, there were five doses of medicine, each wrapped in oil paper.

Li Yuzhu opened each package to meticulously inspect them.
