ARDA - Chapter 137 - Contagious Disease?

 Jiang Ning returned to Ning'an Courtyard. After experiencing the suffering in her previous life, she saw through the old lady's power and indifference. How could she be moved by a few kind words?

The old lady treated her well at this time just because she still had some use value to the Marquis Mansion.

She didn't think much and smiled coldly.

After returning to the house, continue to prepare the secret medicine.

During these days, she worked hard on her medical skills. I wonder if she really has talent, but she already has some of the brilliance of Divine Doctor Xue.

What she was preparing now was poison.

As for who to use it on...of course it's the person she wrote down in the booklet.

At this time, Shuang Yue walked in and whispered, "Miss, Doctor Xue is here. The Zhuang family invites you to come over for a follow-up consultation."

"Finally here." Jiang Ning smiled coldly and took the newly prepared medicine with her.

Jiang Ning went to the Zhuang Family Courtyard in disguise.

When Butler Zhuang saw her, he immediately came up to her and said, "Doctor, you are here!"

Jiang Ning nodded slightly and walked in.

Seven days have passed, and Zhuang Wei has recovered and is back to his original state. He no longer feels itchy, but when he thinks of the pain and itchiness at that time, he breaks out in cold sweat and can't help but tremble.

Zhuang Wei was behind the bed tent and asked, "Am I healed?"

Jiang Ning checked his pulse and then said, "Yes, the young master is already well."

The person behind the bed tent was visibly relieved.

Jiang Ning stood quietly aside, with cold eyes.

Yes, you are healed, but it is not over yet.

She said, "But it would be safer to take the medicine for a few more days." She took out the porcelain bottle from her sleeve. The pills in the porcelain bottle smelled exactly like the previous pills. No one except her could tell them apart.

This porcelain bottle contains poison.

When she was treating Zhuang Wei, she had a tactic in mind. As long as she introduce this medicine, the previous treatment would be in vain.

After Zhuang Wei takes this medicine, he will return to the time when his whole body was full of ulcers and itchiness.

She was not a kind person. She knew clearly that Zhuang Wei had colluded with Jiang Mengyue and sent robbers to murder her, so how could she sincerely treat him?

Zhuang Wei had no doubt about the words of the person in front of him and took the porcelain bottle.

Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined that the person in front of him was the daughter of the Marquis family whom he had tried to murder.

He didn't know that the porcelain bottle contained poison, which would return him to a state of agony.

After Jiang Ning delivered the medicine, she said goodbye and left.

She walked out of the yard, got on the carriage, and took one last look at the closed door, her eyes cold.

After a while, a figure swooped into the carriage.

Shuang Yue has been secretly following and protecting Jiang Ning. Just when Jiang Ning was giving Zhuang Wei a follow-up consultation in the house, Shuang Yue was watching outside the house, and would rush in if there was a hint of danger.

"Let's go."

Jiang Ning spoke, and the carriage drove slowly.

In the other courtyard, after Jiang Ning left, Zhuang Wei lifted the bed curtain and walked out.

He opened the porcelain bottle without any doubt, poured out a pill, swallowed it, and took a big sip of tea.

"It's finally better!"

He feels angry when he thinks of the good opportunities he missed because of this disease.

Butler Zhuang walked into the house and asked respectfully, "Master, your illness has recovered. Is it time to return to the Zhuang's house? Madam must be thinking about you..."

Zhuang Wei's face was cold, "Don't go back yet, there are still some things to deal with."

"By the way, have you taken care of that thing?"

There was no emotion in his words, and he even said them with gritted teeth and annoyance.

Butler Zhuang paused, nodded and said, "It's been taken care of."

"Heh!" Zhuang Wei snorted coldly, "If it weren't for that thing, how could I have suffered like this? I missed the opportunity to join the Fourth Prince! How did you do it? How dare you find low-quality goods!"

Butler Zhuang sweated on his forehead and said quickly, "It's all my fault..."

Zhuang Wei was angry, but he didn't reprimand him too much. Butler Zhuang was his confidant and had done so many things for him. He would still need to cover up for him in the future.

Now that he has recovered from his strange illness, his restless thoughts cannot be suppressed.

His feminine face, eyes flashed with lust, and he said, "Look for another one, find someone clean."

"This……"

Butler Zhuang looked embarrassed and hesitated, "Master, I've been having a hard time finding someone in the capital recently..."

"Look carefully, it doesn't matter how much money you spend." Zhuang Wei smiled coldly.

Butler Zhuang could only agree.

.........

Jiang Ning went to Doctor Xue’s residence.

When he walked into the house, she saw Xue Xiu standing in the yard, looking inside the house.

Jiang Ning took off her disguise and walked over.

Xue Xiu noticed Jiang Ning and said, "Ms. Jiang, you are here."

"What's up?"

Jiang Ning also followed her gaze and looked into the room. Doctor Xue was busy moving around, administering acupuncture and medicine, he was healing a person.

She was going to walk in and give Grandpa Xue a hand.

"Miss Jiang! You can't go in!" Xue Xiu hurriedly grabbed her and shook her head, "Grandpa said this child has a contagious disease and nobody can go in."

Jiang Ning frowned, "A contagious disease?"

"Nothing's wrong, I'll go in and take a look." As a doctor, how could she be afraid of such a trivial matter? As long as she was prepared, she would be fine.

She went inside.

"Miss Jiang..." Xue Xiu could only watch her walk in.

Jiang Ning walked into the house and saw a child lying on the bed. He was about seven or eight years old. He was thin and his body was covered with red, swollen and thick sores.

She frowned when she saw the thick sores.

Doctor Xue didn't even raise his head as he said, "Get rid of those medicinal materials."

"Okay." Jiang Ning walked aside and processed the medicinal materials. Doctor Xue dealt with the child's wounds and applied the prepared medicine.

While Jiang Ning was handling the medicinal materials, her eyes fell on the child. Those thick sores... Of course, she knew what kind of disease it was. Not long ago, she personally treated Zhuang Wei for this disease.

Just why would a child get this disease?

Doctor Xue was busy for half an hour before he finished applying the medicine to the child.

After walking out, he washed his hands and changed into his cloth clothes.

Jiang Ning asked, "Grandpa Xue, who is that child?"

"I picked him up when I went up the mountain to collect herbs." Doctor Xue's face was cold, and when he said this, his tone was a little dissatisfied, "He was swept up by grass and thrown into the barren mountain dying. If I hadn't discovered it in time, he would have died."

Jiang Ning frowned slightly, "Does he have sores on his body?"

"Yes!" Divine Doctor Xue snorted coldly, his face even darker, "What a crime, to actually attack a child..."

Jiang Ning fell into deep thought.

Thinking of the filthy sores on Zhuang Wei's body, and looking at the thick sores on the child's body, it can be seen that the onset of the two diseases was roughly the same... She thought of something, and her face turned cold.

"Shuang Yue." She called Shuang Yue.

"What are your orders, Miss?"

"Go and find out the identity of this child, and find out whether this matter is related to Zhuang Wei."

"Yes." Shuangyue responded.

Jiang Ning clenched her fists. If this matter really had anything to do with Zhuang Wei...then he should die!
