Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 254 8 Treasure Hawthorn Cake

Just when Jiaorou was wondering who poisoned Daiyu, she thought Daiyu might be tired.

I saw that she had her eyes closed and was dozing lightly on the bed.

She stood up carefully, afraid of waking up Daiyu who was sleeping.

After tiptoeing out to the outer room, Jiaorou took a deep breath, trying to relax her tense nerves a little.

However, at this moment, a figure hurriedly walked in. It turned out to be Xiaoling.

She was holding a bowl of longan and lotus seed soup in her hand. After all this time, Daiyu must be hungry.

Jiaorou quickly pulled Xiaoling aside.

She lowered her voice and asked:

"Xiaoling, has the doctor left?"

Xiaoling looked around and after making sure that no one was around, she whispered in Jiaorou's ear:

“Thanks to Xiaowan, she secretly gave the doctor a few more taels of silver.

He is checking in the kitchen.

The doctor has checked all the residue of the pregnancy-maintaining medicine one by one, and is now checking the daily meal samples!"

After hearing this, Jiaorou suddenly remembered why she hadn't thought of it!

You should let the doctor check each one of them.

She didn't have time to think and hurried towards the kitchen.

As soon as she entered the kitchen, Jiaorou saw the doctor bending over, staring intently at the various food samples on the table.

He frowned slightly, stretched out his right hand, gently picked up some of the food residue, placed it in the palm of his hand, and then slowly rubbed it.

Then he took out a long silver needle from the medicine box, carefully inserted it into the food, and waited quietly for a moment.

Seeing the doctor so focused and serious, Jiaorou didn't dare to disturb him rashly. She just stood not far away and watched his every move nervously.

After a long while, the doctor finally straightened up with a relieved smile on his face.

It seems that after this careful inspection, nothing unusual was found.

Seeing this, Jiao Rou hurried forward and asked softly, "Doctor, in your opinion, is there anything wrong with these foods?"

The doctor quickly put down what he was holding, wiped his hands gently, and said with a smile:

“As far as I’m concerned, there’s nothing wrong with medicine residue and food.

But Concubine Jin was indeed poisoned, and it was a slow poison!"

"Slow poison?"

Jiao Rou couldn't help but wonder who wanted to harm her sister, and what had she eaten to be poisoned?

At this time, I only heard the doctor ask:

"Concubine, how is Concubine Yu doing now?

I need to take her pulse again to see if the prescription I just prescribed is effective!"

Hearing this, Jiaorou hurriedly led the way and brought the doctor to Daiyu's room again.

At this moment, Daiyu had already eaten the lotus seed soup. Seeing Jiaorou and the doctor coming, she hurriedly tidied her clothes and sat quietly on the bed.

I only heard the doctor say with a smile: "Concubine, I need to take your pulse again to confirm the prescription."

Daiyu hurriedly stretched out her hand, held her breath, and watched the doctor take her pulse.

After a while, the doctor signaled Daiyu to rest.

Jiaorou asked hurriedly:

"Doctor, what poison did my sister eat?"

The doctor said the same thing as before. He shook his head helplessly, turned around and looked at Daiyu, and said softly:

"Luckily, it was discovered early and the fetus was not harmed!"

After the doctor finished speaking, he went to the kitchen and told the maids to be careful when boiling the medicine.

When he walked to the table, he found half a plate of hawthorn cake left on it.

The doctor suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly stopped, broke off a piece of hawthorn cake and put it in his mouth. Then he asked anxiously:

"Did Concubine Jin eat this Eight Treasures Hawthorn Cake?

Among the Eight Treasures here, there is one medicine that is completely opposite to the medicine for prenatal maintenance.

It's okay to eat hawthorn cake, but the medicine in the Eight Treasures is a big taboo!"

When Jiaorou heard this, she said hurriedly:

"Doctor, we don't understand either.

I'll send a maid to call the eldest wife over. Please tell her in person!"

After Jiaorou finished speaking, she hurriedly sent Caiping and Xiaoling to find the first wife.

Daiyu was now completely awake. She suddenly whispered to Jiaorou:

"Sister, this hawthorn cake was sent by Aunt Lan!"

Jiaorou seemed to remember something and her heart skipped a beat. Yes, this was sent by Aunt Lan!

But it’s okay. Fortunately, I asked the maid to call the eldest lady. Let’s see how she decides the matter.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly comforted Daiyu and gave her a wink, indicating that she should not be nervous and that she would always be with her.

Not long after, the eldest lady came in with a smile.

She looked at Daiyu, who was now much more energetic, and said with a smile:

"Is Concubine Yu okay now?

Why did you send two maids to call me here?

Jiaorou and Daiyu bowed gently to the eldest lady.

She smiled tenderly and said:

"Your Highness, we can't explain it clearly either. Let the doctor explain it to you in person."

The doctor came over quietly and handed a piece of hawthorn cake to the first wife.

The eldest lady picked up the hawthorn cake and smelled it, and found nothing unusual.

But when she saw the plate, she suddenly remembered that this plate of hawthorn cake was given by Aunt Lan.

Thinking of this, her heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

But with so many people watching, she could only pretend to be calm and ask:

"This is just a hawthorn cake to whet your appetite. What's the problem?"

The doctor took the hawthorn cake and put it in his mouth. He chewed it for a while and said to the first wife with a smile:

"Madam, if this were just an ordinary hawthorn cake, it would be fine.

But when Chinese medicine is added to it, it becomes the famous Eight Treasures Hawthorn Cake."

Having said this, the doctor paused, looked at Daiyu, and asked softly:

"Yufujin, do you have symptoms of palpitations and dizziness in the morning and evening?"

Daiyu nodded hurriedly to the doctor.

The doctor continued:

"That's it.

Mrs. Yu drinks pregnancy-maintaining medicine every day. The medicine in this Eight Treasures Hawthorn Cake is completely opposite to the pregnancy-maintaining medicine.

If you mix these two together and don't find out until later, you could end up with dizziness and palpitations at best, or even the fetus could be lost."

The eldest wife suddenly realized that it was Aunt Lan's fault.

Despite my repeated warnings, she still made such a mistake.

But now, how can we solve the problem? The prince is not in the mansion.

Thinking of this, the first wife hurriedly said to the doctor: "Doctor, you go and write a prescription. I will discuss with them how to deal with it."

After the doctor left, the eldest wife turned around and looked at Daiyu.

She pretended not to know that the hawthorn cake was sent by Aunt Lan, and said to Daiyu with a smile:

"Giving birth is like going through hell for a woman!

Since this hawthorn cake is not edible, it’s fine if you don’t eat it, Mrs. Yu!

For the sake of the children, you must be more careful in the future!"

When Jiaorou heard this, she smiled and said hurriedly:

"Madam, this hawthorn cake was sent by Aunt Lan.

I wonder if she really doesn't understand that the Eight Treasures and the abortion-maintaining medicine are counterproductive, or if she has some other motive?"

The eldest wife didn't expect Jiao Rou to be so ruthless and pushed Concubine Lan out.

She smiled hurriedly and said to Jiaorou:

"In that case, call her over and ask her.

Whether it is right or wrong, we must speak our mind clearly in everything.”

After the first wife finished speaking, she sternly told Cailian: "Go, quickly call Aunt Lan!"

Jiaorou suddenly smiled and looked at Xiaoling, saying softly: "Xiaoling, the eldest lady has been here for so long, hurry up and serve tea!"

Somehow, Daiyu felt a little nervous. She gently pulled Jiaorou's clothes from behind, and Jiaorou took the opportunity to hold her hand.

While the eldest wife was drinking tea, he gave her a wink.

After a while, accompanied by a coquettish and angry laugh, Aunt Lan came in, twisting her charming waist.
