The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion-Chapter 31: Wake Up
Chapter 31
With her goal achieved, He Zhiran was straightforward.
"Alright, I'll help the official detoxify now."
After speaking, she walked towards the herbs they had collected yesterday and casually picked a few to take back.
She handed the herbs to The Eighth Old Zhou: "Official, these are the herbs we collected yesterday. Boil some water for Mr. Peng to drink and within seven days, the remaining toxins in his body will be completely cleansed."
The Eighth Old Zhou was somewhat skeptical: "Are your words true?"
"True," He Zhiran answered very definitively.
The herbs she had chosen together only had the effects of clearing heat, promoting urination, cooling blood and detoxifying.
Although they didn't provide much help to Peng Wang's body, they were not completely useless either.
At the very least they could alleviate the current symptoms.
Anyway, there were no real remaining toxins in Peng Wang's body, his recovery just required time.
Seeing He Zhiran's sincere gaze, much of the doubt in The Eighth Old Zhou's heart lessened.
"Boss, you go rest first on the wagon, I'll go brew the medicine now."
Looking at the limited space next to the wagon, Peng Wang could only reluctantly squeeze in with Mo Jiuye since he needed their help.
Because of the medicine brewing, the departure was delayed by almost half a hour.
Before departure, The Eighth Old Zhou observed the prisoners and found two brawny men from the He family.
Naturally, these two became the main force to push the wagon.
When they saw Mo Jiuye lying on the wagon, they were extremely upset.
If not for these officials present, they would have torn Mo Jiuye, who caused the downfall of the He family, into ten thousand pieces.
However, after facing Peng Wang's warning gaze, the He brothers immediately lost all their bluster.
They could only reluctantly push the wagon to get going.
He Zhiran's actions once again attracted worshipful gazes from the Mo women.
Especially Mo Hanyue, who had been chattering nonstop around He Zhiran since they set off.
"Sister-in-law, you're so amazing. Not only does brother not need to get off the wagon, we even have free labor to use, making it much more relaxing for us all."
He Zhiran just smiled lightly at the little sister-in-law's praise.
She didn't feel like what she did was anything amazing, it was just some experience cultivated from her past life, as well as her personality.
Mo Hanyue spoke more and more excitedly, already hooking He Zhiran's arm.
"Sister-in-law, brother is so fortunate to have married such an amazing wife like you."
As she spoke, Mo Hanyue saw some of the herbs they had collected yesterday in the grass by the roadside.
She excitedly pointed at the herbs and said: "Sister-in-law, there are herbs over there, I'll go collect them."
After she finished speaking, Mo Hanyue was about to run towards the roadside when she was grabbed by He Zhiran.
"Little sister, there will be more chances to collect herbs later, delaying everyone on the road will lead to punishment by the officials."
Mo Hanyue was just a simple-minded girl who hadn't considered so much.
After being reminded by He Zhiran, she only then realized they were on the road to exile.
Mo Hanyue's little face scrunched unhappily together.
"I understand now sister-in-law, I'll be careful from now on."
The Mo family members were full and could keep up with the officials' pace.
The other families were not so fortunate, eating only black steamed buns for two consecutive meals, which were not only hard to swallow but didn't fill them up either.
In addition, they were all used to being pampered daily. Not even half an hour after the troop set off, stragglers began to appear one after another.
The officials didn't show any mercy at all, anyone who fell behind would suffer whipping from their rods.
This resulted in endless wailing coming from the back of the troop.
The two He brothers responsible for pushing the wagon were also somewhat exhausted, constantly pleading to Peng Wang for some food.
Peng Wang was not completely heartless, knowing these two needed strength, he was just about to order someone to bring two white steamed buns over.
At this time, the wagon happened to bump into a large rock, the car almost tipping over.
Peng Wang was sitting on top and with this force, his body tilted and pressed down on Mo Jiuye.
Coincidentally, the place Peng Wang made contact was exactly where Mo Jiuye's injury was most severe.
Mo Jiuye didn't react at first, instinctively letting out a muffled groan.
Peng Wang didn't have time to scold the two pushing the wagon, his first thought was that Mo Jiuye had woken up.
He hurriedly called He Zhiran over: "Come quickly and see if your husband has woken up."
Although he was used to seeing prisoners die on the road, Peng Wang still held some respect for Mo Jiuye.
Especially during the dispute between the official and Xie Fang, what He Zhiran said really resonated with him.
No matter what mistakes Mo Jiuye made, it could not erase the Mo men's contributions to the country.
Likewise with Mo Jiuye, recently in the capital there was still widespread talk of his triumphant return.
For such a person, Peng Wang sincerely hoped he could survive.
Of course, these were just his subconscious thoughts. If the Mo family dared to cause trouble on the road, he would still ruthlessly teach them a lesson.
He Zhiran did not know Peng Wang's thoughts. Hearing him call her, she hurried over.
"Official Peng, did you say my husband woke up?"
She deliberately showed a shocked expression while mentally preparing how to respond.
Peng Wang shifted his body to one side.
"I might have bumped into his wound just now. I don't know if it was painful or what, but he let out a muffled groan."
He Zhiran stopped the He brothers and went through the motions of taking Mo Jiuye's pulse.
She was actually doing this to give Mo Jiuye some time.
Because she was unclear of Mo Jiuye's plans, whether he would wake up now or wait a little longer.
Mo Jiuye was also deliberating in his heart.
On the surface he appeared to be lying unconscious on the wagon, but in reality he had not relaxed his vigilance at all.
From morning till now, he had been sensing the surroundings, even secretly observing when others were unaware.
In his observations, he did not notice any danger.
After thinking it over, Mo Jiuye decided to wake up.
Just as He Zhiran was still carefully taking his pulse, he let out a faint groan.
Peng Wang pointed at Mo Jiuye again and said: "See, isn't he really awake?"
He Zhiran retracted her pulse-taking hand, pretending to be delighted as she said: "Yes, my husband is awake."
Hearing this, Old Lady Mo and the other women also crowded around, the concern in their eyes did not seem fake.
It could be said, their acting skills definitely passed.
He Zhiran took the water bag from her waist.
"Husband, how are you feeling? Have some water first to moisten your throat."
Mo Jiuye also cooperated very well, arduously raising his head slightly and drinking two mouthfuls with He Zhiran's assistance.
Peng Wang kindly reminded: "He's weak now, dry steamed buns are not suitable. Let him drink more water to moisten his throat."
Although it was a reminder, his tone was still impatient as always.
