Without a careful inspection, it would almost go unnoticed.

Su Qingyue checked his breath again, he was exhaling more than he inhaled.

She pried open his eyelids, his pupils had not yet begun to dilate.

Second brother is strong and sturdy with a good foundation, there’s hope for him.

But the second brother was not only bitten by a snake, his fall down the hillside led to multiple external injuries, moreover… his left leg was broken.

After checking Xiao Yishan’s pulse, Su Qingyue felt Xiao Yuchuan’s pulse. His pulse was steady and strong, occasionally obstructed by blood stagnation, but his heartbeat was normal.

The third brother was not sick at all, it seemed like… he was poisoned.

No matter what, the third brother’s life was not in danger, the rescue of the second brother was of immediate importance.

In the room, Wang Cuihua and Li Gui, along with a few other villagers were present, so many people almost filled up the room.

“Wife of the Xiao Family, what are you up to? Staring at the two brothers of the Xiao Family…” Among them, Lady Liu spoke mockingly, “The Xiao Family is facing such a catastrophe, and yet you’re not crying?”

Su Qingyue had caused her daughter Liu Xianglian to lose greatly, resulting in Liu Xianglian’s infamous reputation. She wished the people of the Xiao Family would all die and that everyone would capture and burn Su Qingyue.

Su Qingyue needed to provide acupuncture for her second brother to control the snake venom from damaging the central nervous system. Otherwise, even if cured, he could be paralyzed.

She needed to be in a quiet environment.

Whether inside or outside the room, there were too many gossipy people. If they disturbed her while she was administering the needles, one mistake could make the snake venom spread to the second brother’s brain, “Can you all please leave? My second and third brothers need to rest.”

Li Gui had received an education after all, unlike others who lacked knowledge. He had already taken a close look at the two bundles of various grasses on the floor…

He didn’t understand what the two bundles were. However, he recognized the wild vegetables and asarum in the basket.

Asarum is a type of herb.

Could those two large bundles also be herbs? There were so many varieties. Could Su Qingyue really recognize so many types of herbs?

A flicker of doubt passed through his eyes.

When the other villagers heard Su Qingyue asking them to leave, they gradually left the room. Lady Liu became upset, “You disgraceful woman bought as a bride, you’re a curse! Both brothers of the Xiao family must have been harmed by your bad luck!”

Wang Cuihua was not pleased, “Lady Liu, how can you be so cruel? It’s a well-known fact that Chuan has an old illness. Second Brother Xiao was bitten by a snake by accident, what does this have to do with Qingyue? You can’t just lash out at someone with your foul mouth whenever you feel like it. I know the Liu Family is not in good terms with the Xiao Family. Are you happy to see the Xiao Family in trouble?”

Lady Liu stood with her hands on her hips, “Wang Cuihua, are you out of your mind? What business is it of yours what happens to the Xiao Family? Why are you standing up for Su Qingyue?”

Wang Cuihua also looked fierce, “My husband is good friends with Chuan, and I’m good friends with Su Qingyue. Anyone who dares to bully my friend will have to deal with me! ”

Li Gui’s face also darkened, “Lady Liu, this is the Xiao’s house, it’s not the place for you to make a fuss!”

Lady Liu became upset, “Li Gui, why are you speaking up for the Xiao Family? You said it yourself, this is the Xiao Family’s place, why does someone with the surname Li have any say…”

When talking to Li Gui, her voice naturally quietened down, she was expecting her daughter to marry Li Gui, her wealthy son-in-law.

“You…” As a learned man, Li Gui was stumped by her argument.

During their quarrel, Su Qingyue had already figured out the acupuncture plan for her second brother.. She didn’t have time to argue with them, she untied the vines bundling the herbs on the ground, chose several types of herbs and went into the kitchen to wash them as quickly as possible,
