It was already noon when Jian Yue returned home.

Qian cursed, Jian Dacheng and his son looked sullen, and even Jian Xiaohe rolled her eyes and snorted. But no one said anything to her, as if they were blind and didn't see that she came back late.

Jian Yue made a windfall today and was in a very good mood. She pretended not to see the dead faces of her family and walked briskly into the kitchen.

It would cost five hundred taels to make medicine tools, and she also needed a pair of golden needles. The master had nothing at home, so she had to buy him some furniture and daily necessities, as well as food, and the leaky house also needed to be repaired.

Jian Yue originally thought that one thousand taels was a lot, but after all the calculations, it turned out to be not enough. The one thousand taels in her arms suddenly lost their fragrance.

After lunch, Jian Yue put on the light blue cotton dress that Aunt Yang gave her. When she was changing clothes, she suddenly realized that she should make a few small clothes. She always felt insecure because her underwear was not close to her body.

After washing the clothes and hanging them on the clothesline, Jian Yue prepared to go out again.

Jian Dacheng, who was sitting under the eaves, called her: "Zhao Di, you are a grown-up girl now, you can't run out all the time. You don't care about our feelings, you have to think about your reputation!"

Jian Yue looked at him and laughed: "If I don't go out to work, how can I take care of my health? Are you willing to pay for my health care?"

Jian Dacheng had a bitter face: "Zhao Di, don't listen to the nonsense of the country quack doctor. There is nothing wrong with your body. You are just a little thin. Eat more in the future, and you will gradually become stronger."

Jian Yue sneered: "Dad, does your conscience hurt when you say this?"

Jian Dacheng's face darkened: "Zhao Di, why are you so stubborn? You won't listen to anything your parents say."

Jian Yue laughed strangely: "If I had listened to you guys, I would probably be lying on the bed right now, letting you guys do whatever you want to me."

"You, what nonsense are you talking about?" Jian Dacheng was so angry that his chest heaved violently.

"Jian Zhaodi, come in." Qian called from inside the room. Her buttocks hurt so much that she didn't dare to stand up.

Jian Yue pretended not to hear and turned around and walked out of the yard.

Jian Yue went to the Dongcheng Iron Shop, which made custom tools, and ordered another set of gold needles.

The medical skills of Nanchang State also include the golden needle technique. However, at that time, the acupuncture points of the human body had not been fully developed, and only dozens of major acupuncture points were known, unlike the modern medical development, where all 362 acupuncture points of the human body have been developed.

The shopkeeper personally received Jian Yue and was shocked by the number and size of the gold needles she had drawn.

Other doctors who are good at acupuncture would order at most 30 gold or silver needles from him. But this little girl ordered 108. He wanted to ask what was the purpose of ordering so many gold needles. But he was afraid of causing Jian Yue's disgust, so he thought about it and gave up.

At this moment, a waiter rushed in and said, "Boss, something bad has happened! Little Li's lips and tongue are swollen, and he keeps vomiting. He is dying."

"Ah? What's going on?" The shopkeeper was shocked. "Hurry up and find a few people to take him to see a doctor." The shopkeeper hurried out.

He walked a few steps, then suddenly remembered that there were customers there, so he stopped and apologized: "I'm sorry, girl, something happened to the guy in the store, I have to go check it out, I must not let anyone get killed."

Jian Yue nodded: "Human lives are at stake, go ahead, boss! I'm not in a hurry."

Department Manager: ...You are not anxious, but I am. Why don't you help? Could it be that Mr. Mao and the master guessed wrong?

The shopkeeper bowed and walked quickly to the backyard. Jian Yue sat down and drank tea leisurely.

When she came yesterday, the shopkeeper and the clerk were too polite to her, but not respectful. But today, when she showed up, the shopkeeper came out to receive her in person, and was very respectful to her in his words and actions. This change made Jian Yue think a lot.

Soon, several people carried a waiter out from the backyard. The waiter's face was blue and purple, especially his lips, which were swollen like sausages.

Jian Yue stood up and pretended to be curious and moved closer. When she heard the waiter's sluggish breathing, her heart sank and she shouted hurriedly: "Put him down quickly, he won't make it to the clinic."

The guys who were carrying the person were stunned and all looked at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was also stunned, then he understood: "Miss, can you treat illnesses?"

Oh! You really act like one.

Jian Yue nodded: "I know some basic medical skills. Lay the man flat on the ground quickly." As she spoke, she took out Rong Mama's long needle and quickly gave the waiter a few injections around his mouth.

"Bring me paper and pen, and write down what I say." Jian Yue ordered.

"I'll take note. Please continue speaking, young lady." The shopkeeper walked a few steps towards the table.

"Angelica, Patchouli, Burdock..."

A clerk ran out of the blacksmith shop with a prescription.

"Bring half a bowl of warm water." Jian Yue took out a porcelain bottle from her arms and poured out two pills.

A waiter brought water as quickly as possible. Jian Yue put two pills into a bowl to dissolve them, and asked the waiter to pour the water into the person on the ground.

Less than half a cup of tea after taking the medicine, the poisoned guy began to ooze black blood from the needle holes around the corners of his mouth.

"Lift his head sideways and wipe him quickly with a wet cloth to prevent it from flowing into his mouth." Jian Yue ordered.

The guy slowly came to consciousness, and his swollen lips subsided at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The shopkeeper was surprised and delighted. He bowed to Jian Yue and spoke in a more respectful tone than before: "So the young lady is an expert in detoxification. I am so sorry for the disrespect!"

Jian Yue curled her lips, but did not expose his tentative intention. She said calmly: "The one this guy hit was a white calla lily. White calla lily is an ornamental plant. Although it can purify the air, its flowers and leaves contain toxins. It is best not to put them in your mouth rashly. If you don't treat it in time, it will really kill you."

The shopkeeper laughed awkwardly. He always felt that this little girl saw through his tricks and was hinting at him.

"Thank you for your reminder, young lady. We have several pots of these flowers in the backyard. We all think they are elegant and beautiful. We didn't know that this plant is poisonous. I will have someone deal with it right away."

"That's not necessary. As long as you don't put it in your mouth, it won't hurt you."

After buying the medicine, the guy quickly boiled it and gave it to the poisoned guy to take. Soon after taking it, the poisoned guy returned to normal.

He knelt down to thank Jian Yue: "Thank you for saving my life, young lady."

Jian Yue waved her hand and told him to get up quickly: "I'm young, don't shorten my life."

The waiter looked at the shopkeeper, who nodded and said, "Young lady, please don't be so fussy. Get up now! If the young lady needs your help in the future, please be diligent and repay her for saving your life."

The waiter nodded in agreement and was helped to the backyard by other waiters.

"Miss, please take a seat here." The shopkeeper respectfully led Jian Yue to the table and asked her to sit down. "May I know your name, young lady?"

"He is a nobody, so the department manager doesn't need to take him seriously."

The shopkeeper smiled...
