Due to the urgency of the situation, Zhou Xiaoli did not pay much attention to anything else. After getting into the carriage, she immediately went to check on the baby’s condition.

“Young lady, what’s wrong with my son?” The lady’s hands were trembling as she held the child. She looked at Zhou Xiaoli anxiously.

“He was fine when we started on our journey home. He even smiled at me, but for some reason, he suddenly became like this.”

As the lady spoke, her heart ached so much that tears fell.

She quickly turned her head away and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

Zhou Xiaoli did not speak, but after inspecting the baby, her expression changed.

Poisoned! He was actually poisoned.

Who was so vicious as to poison such a small baby?

Zhou Xiaoli could not help but think of the dirty affairs within big families.

This baby looked like he was only a few months old. It was pitiful that he was poisoned at such a young age.

Moreover, the poison had already taken effect. Even if they found a doctor now, the chances of saving him would be tiny.

However, this baby was lucky to have met Zhou Xiaoli.

She had the spiritual spring water from the alternate space, so this little guy could still be saved.

Seeing Zhou Xiaoli’s heavy expression and silence, the madam felt her heart stop beating, and a trace of despair appeared on her face.

She had been too anxious. Seeing that her son was about to die, she asked Zhou Xiaoli for help as a last resort. Even if this countryside girl knew some medical skills, how could she have a solution?

At this moment, Zhou Xiaoli pursed her lips and said, “He can be saved.” Then, she took out the acupuncture bag seemingly from her pocket but it was in fact, kept in the alternate space.

This was the silver needle that her master had just given her. Fortunately, she had a good habit of putting things into her space.

When the madam heard that Zhou Xiaoli could save her son, her hope was reignited.

At this moment, Zhou Xiaoli opened the acupuncture bag and removed a silver needle.

She picked up the little guy’s wrist, found the position of the blood vessel, and gently inserted the needle. At the same time, she injected the spiritual spring water into the little guy’s body through the needle.

She should have let the little guy drink the spiritual spring water, but it was not convenient for her to take the water out just like that as there were outsiders around, so she used this method.

However, the effect was not bad.

As the spiritual spring water was injected into the baby’s body, the greenish-black color on the baby’s lips gradually faded, and his yellowish face slowly returned to normal, but he was still a little pale.

His breathing, which was almost non-existent, gradually became even.

The extremely nervous master and servant were overjoyed when they saw the baby recover.

“Madam, the Young Master’s complexion is normal. The Young Master is fine!” The lady wiped her tears and nodded repeatedly. “My Brother An is fine!”

At this moment, Zhou Xiaoli put away the silver needle and casually instructed, “The child’s life is not in danger for the time being. When Madam goes back, you need to find a doctor and get him to prescribe some medicine. He should be fine after recuperating for a few days.”

The lady touched the child’s face and felt that he was breathing evenly. Her face was filled with gratitude. “Miss, you saved my son. I don’t know how to thank you! ”

Zhou Xiaoli put the acupuncture bag back into her pocket and smiled. “Madam, you don’t have to be so polite.”

She had no intention of asking for a reward so she said, “Madam, you should go back quickly. The Young Master is still weak; he needs to see a doctor to get the medicine quickly.”

As she spoke, she was ready to get off the carriage.

“Hey, Miss, wait a moment.” The Madam called out to Zhou Xiaoli, then asked the maidservant beside her to quickly find some money.

After searching for a while, the maidservant was a little troubled. “Madam, we didn’t bring any silver ingots with us today. We only brought about 10 taels of silver.”

“10 taels? That’s too little.” Madam frowned and thought of something. She took out a jade pendant from the child’s swaddling clothes and handed it to Zhou Xiaoli.

“Miss, you saved my son’s life, so you should be rewarded handsomely. However, I didn’t bring any money with me today. Take this jade pendant as a thank-you gift.”

Just as Madam finished speaking, Zhou Xiaoli had yet to say whether she would accept or reject.

The maid standing outside couldn’t help but lift the curtain and say, “Madam, this jade pendant is the hundredth-day gift that the Eldest Madam gave to the Young Master. Madam, it’s too expensive for you to use it to pay her!”

“In my opinion, ten taels of silver is enough as payment for the treatment rendered!”

“Shut up!”

Madam glared at her, then said to Zhou Xiaoli, “Miss, I’m in a hurry to go back and treat my baby, so I can’t visit today to thank you. When my baby recovers, I’ll definitely bring my baby to visit you personally to thank you.”

She handed the jade pendant to Zhou Xiaoli as she spoke.

Zhou Xiaoli looked at the jade pendant and nodded. She accepted it without hesitation.

Judging from the madam’s attire, she must be from a wealthy family. Zhou Xiaoli was just a small village girl. If she hesitated and refused, the other party would think that she was asking for more.

Therefore, if it could be easily resolved with money, then one should not owe anyone else a favor.

After receiving the jade pendant, Zhou Xiaoli nodded and bade farewell before quickly getting off the carriage.

After Zhou Xiaoli got out of the carriage, the maidservant outside the carriage got in with a dark expression.

Immediately after, Zhou Xiaoli heard the madam scolding her from within.

“You’re getting unruly. When I go back, I’ll report to the Old Madam and ask her to take you back. I am unable to use you as my maidservant…”

Immediately after, the sounds of the maidservant begging for mercy rang out.

Zhou Xiaoli retreated to the side of the road and let their carriage pass.

At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the lady said, “Miss, my surname is Zhang, and my name is Yan. My husband’s surname is Zhao. What’s your name? Where do you live? I can visit you to thank you one day.”

Zhou Xiaoli did not think that the other party would really come, so she said casually, “My surname is Zhou, and I live in a village not far ahead.”

Zhang Yan nodded and thanked her again before leaving in a hurry.

Liu Liangcai waited for their carriage to completely pass before driving the donkey cart back to the road. He told Zhou Xiaoli to sit on it before the two of them headed home.

Thinking of what happened just now, Liu Liangcai was shocked and praised, “Little Li, you actually know medicine and saved people. You’re really amazing.”

Zhou Xiaoli was a little embarrassed by the praise. She could only laugh and say, “My master taught me medical skills. Actually, I’m not as good as you say. It’s just that the baby’s condition is special and I happened to read about it in my master’s book.”

No matter what Zhou Xiaoli said, Liu Liangcai still felt that Zhou Xiaoli was very impressive. As the two of them spoke, the donkey cart entered the village.

When they were about to reach home, they bumped into Liu Yuanyuan and Lu Huahua, who were standing together and talking, outside Liu Liangcai’s house. Lu Huahua held Liu Yuanyuan’s arm with a fawning expression and said in a sweet voice, “Sister Yuanyuan, thank you for teaching me how to sew a mandarin duck today. You’re so good. You’re beautiful, kind, and good at embroidery. No wonder Brother Chen likes you. You two are simply a match made in heaven.”

Liu Yuanyuan was bombarded by the sugar-coated praises. Her face was flushed, and she raised her plump chin slightly. She replied shyly, “No, no.

Sister Huahua is also very beautiful..”
