Chapter 301: Chapter 297: Incomprehensible Human Speech_1

Chui Zhaochen smiled and said, “Young doctor, you can ask for as many medicinal herbs as you need. After all, preparing these medicines is not a matter of a single day or night. We do not intend to exploit you.”

Yingbao felt relieved but remembered something else and said to Chui Zhaochen, “I need peace and quiet to prepare medicines. I cannot be disturbed by anyone. If Chen Tiantian continues to harass me for no reason and wastes the herbs, it won’t be my fault.”

Chui Zhaochen thought for a moment and said, “The girl with surname Chen was originally sent here by Master Xiao. She has no significant connection with our doctor. However, I will relay your request to him.”

“Alright then.” Yingbao thought, Master Xiao and Xiaomo were two peas in a pod, none of them were up to any good.

In the following days, apart from studying the Healing Prayer Technique, she spent her remaining time preparing medicines in the newly opened pharmacy.

Ya Sen even sent two teenage students to help her grind and steam the herbs.

These two students did help at first, but soon began making frequent mistakes.

If they weren’t mixing up the herbs, they were adding other herbs into the freshly brewed medicine.

After advising them several times and seeing them continue to act in their own way, Yingbao started to suspect something.

Upon their next mistake, Yingbao rushed to call Ya Sen over and pointed to the large pot of herbal liquid and said, “This is the fifth time they have added the wrong herbs. Because of them, my precious herbs have been wasted and I no longer have enough to make medicines.”

Upon hearing this, Ya Sen immediately turned to the two students and asked with knitted brows, “What is going on here?”

The two students turned pale and made excuses. “She’s lying! She was the one who prepared the medicine. We merely did as she instructed.”

Yingbao sneered, “Is that so? Then explain why there are raw aconitum in the medicine?”

She walked over to the pottery pot, scooped out some herbs, found several pieces of raw aconitum, and gave them to Ya Sen to examine. “Sir, could you please check what this is? This pot was meant for internal medicine, but they added raw aconitum, which is an external medicine. What are they really up to?”

Anyone with medical knowledge would know that both raw and processed aconitum are extremely toxic and are mainly used as external medication. Even for internal use, the dosage must be carefully controlled.

The fact that these students added medicine into the pot for internal use was no less than an attempt to poison someone.

Ya Sen was furious and was rendered speechless for a moment.

Finally, he called for several medical guards and had the students taken away for interrogation.

Yingbao’s medicine preparation was halted because she ran out of herbs.

The next day, Ya Sen had someone deliver a batch of medicinal herbs as a compensation.

He also informed her that the two students had been expelled.

Yingbao was not surprised.

Those who dared to tamper with the medicine were destined for this outcome.

It was a shame though, the students wanted to stand up for Chen Tiantian, but ended up ruining themselves.

That Chen Tiantian really couldn’t stay out of trouble, she even managed to get two students to take risks for her.

Yingbao shook her head and started preparing medicine again.

It was good not to have help. She could do everything herself and secretly process some herbs for herself.

Summer harvest season soon arrived.

Zhou Wuchang gave Yingbao a few days off to assist with agricultural work.

So, she happily went home with her second cousin.

The deer at home had already adapted to the environment, and some of them had been adopted.

Chen Zhu’s family adopted Yaoyao, who they took out to graze every day.

Chen Yin’s family also adopted a deer, which they treated as a lucky charm.

Huzi and Jiang Wu didn’t adopt anything. They were constantly arguing over who should ride the horse.

Because the horse Yingbao was raising had grown into a magnificent war horse and it attracted their attention more than the unridable deer.

“Sister, do you want to ride too?” Jiang Wu sat on the warhorse and asked his sister smugly, “I can take you.”
