The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

After a bumpy ride, the oxcart finally arrived at Ping'an Town. After Xie Xiaogang carefully instructed the others on when to return to the village, he expertly drove the oxcart, taking Wang Xinyao with him to a pharmacy in town. Soon, they arrived at a clinic called "Sheng'an Hall."

The store entrance was now crowded with people, and the noise was resounding. Xie Xiaogang parked the cart and, with Wang Xinyao, laboriously squeezed through the crowd.

There was a woman lying on a bench in the clinic. She looked to be over 45 years old and thin, obviously due to long-term malnutrition. At this moment, her face was pale, her eyes were closed, and her bloodless lips were trembling slightly. She looked like she had fainted.

A lean, sturdy man, about 28 years old, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to an old man: "Boss, I beg you, please save my mother!"

"Shuisheng, please get up first. Don't be like this. It's not that I don't want to save her. You know your mother has had heart palpitations for a long time. If you give her more blood-tonifying foods, it can still be prevented!" The old man regretfully wanted to help Shuisheng, who had been kneeling on the ground. "But your mother has fainted and even has cold limbs and cold sweats. This four-reverse syndrome is a terminal illness. I really can't do anything. Can she wake up? It all depends on fate!"

"Four-negative syndrome?" Zhang Shuisheng's face instantly lost color upon hearing this, and he collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with fear and despair. He had always known that his mother needed nutritional supplements and should eat more foods that replenished Qi and blood. However, due to their poor family background, his mother was generally very frugal, even when it came to food, she would often secretly save some for his children!

Those around him cast sympathetic glances. Zhang Shuisheng was a renowned filial son, having lived with his mother and two children since his wife passed away two years ago. Now that his mother had been diagnosed with a terminal illness, he sat there in despair, his eyes filled with helplessness.

Fainting? Isn't this modern-day hypoglycemia? Wang Xinyao pondered, knowing full well that time was of the essence and saving lives was like putting out a fire. She quickly turned to the doctor and said anxiously, "Doctor, do you have any sugar in your pharmacy? Could you get me a bowl of sugar water?"

"Sugar?" The doctor looked puzzled, obviously puzzled by Wang Xinyao's request.

At this time, Xie Xiaogang immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "Hello, Shopkeeper Wu. I am the youngest son of Xie Zhengyi from Xiejia Village. This is the sister-in-law of our neighbor. She used to work for the county magistrate. She knows some pharmacology!"

Upon hearing Xie Xiaogang's introduction, Shopkeeper Wu looked at Wang Xinyao, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. He was surprised that this girl in patched clothes actually knew something about pharmacology. However, Shopkeeper Wu was a worldly-wise man after all, and though he was skeptical, he didn't hesitate. Besides, he knew Xie Zhengyi, the village chief of Xiejia Village. So, he immediately ordered the medicine boy to prepare some syrup. "Go quickly, get a bowl of syrup!" The medicine boy hurried off to prepare it.

Shopkeeper Wu continued to observe Wang Xinyao and the fainted woman. He was full of curiosity and anticipation about what would happen next. He also wanted to see how this girl who understood pharmacology would respond.

While waiting for the sugar solution, Wang Xinyao wasn't idle either. She carefully examined the woman's symptoms again, then pinched and pressed her Ren Zhong acupoint with the tip of her thumb, 20-40 times per minute, each pressing for 0.5-1 second. She knew this would stimulate the respiratory and vasomotor centers, thus stimulating the patient's awakening. However, in emergency treatment for hypoglycemia, Ren Zhong acupoint stimulation should be combined with sugar supplementation, and force-feeding should not be used while the patient is unconscious.

The onlookers pointed and talked, and Zhang Shuisheng looked at Wang Xinyao in astonishment. He wanted to step forward to stop her, but when he saw that the doctor didn't say anything, he felt hopeful again, thinking that maybe she could really save his mother.

After a period of pinching and pressing the Ren Zhong acupoint, the woman finally regained some consciousness. Wang Xinyao immediately asked Zhang Shuisheng to help her sit up. She then took the syrup from the medicine boy and carefully fed it to the woman, closely monitoring her reaction. She also gently comforted the anxious Zhang Shuisheng, asking him to calm down.

This series of methodical operations, with its speed and clever methods, stunned everyone around. They all looked at her with admiration and shock. The originally noisy environment instantly became quiet. Everyone stared at Wang Xinyao, as if witnessing a miracle.

After about half a minute, the woman's condition improved a little, her face was no longer pale, and she even showed signs of waking up.

Wang Xinyao put down the bowl, stood up, and bowed to the doctor. "Manager Wu, I've seen others treat fainting before, so this isn't a terminal illness. It can be treated with some pharmacological treatments. As for daily maintenance, just replenish your Qi and blood as you said!"

Upon hearing Wang Xinyao's words, Shopkeeper Wu's eyes lit up instantly, his hands trembling with excitement. In this era, living conditions were harsh, and most people suffered from malnutrition. Fainting was a frequent occurrence, a persistent problem. Now, hearing that there was a prescription for it, he felt as if he saw hope that countless lives could be saved.

Shopkeeper Wu quickly walked up to Wang Xinyao and said anxiously, "Miss, are you serious? This is great!" His eyes were full of anticipation and excitement.

Wang Xinyao smiled and nodded, then continued, "Shopkeeper Wu, I have some herbs here: aconite root, angelica root, and poria cocos. I painstakingly obtained them a few days ago in the back mountains. These three herbs, combined with dried ginger, can be boiled into Sini Decoction, which is very helpful for fainting. Would you like to take them?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I want all the herbs you sent me!" Shopkeeper Wu said impatiently. Not to mention that there were precious herbs here, this prescription alone was worth a fortune. How could he not want the herbs from a woman with such a great spirit of love?

"Mom, you're awake!" Zhang Shuisheng's voice was like a thunderclap, allowing the people around him to truly witness the birth of a miracle. Sugar water could actually save lives!

The woman, still very weak, was no longer in danger. Zhang Shuisheng let her rest in a chair for a moment, then quickly walked over to Wang Xinyao, plopped down on his knees, and kowtowed repeatedly to her, "Thank you, my wonderful doctor, for saving my life!"

"Brother Zhang, please stand up quickly and call me Miss Wang!" Wang Xinyao was quite disgusted by the constant kneeling, but she actually liked being called "Miss." After all, she was a girl to begin with. Back then, she had lived to the age of 28 and had never been in love. Then, she patiently instructed a few more words: "On a daily basis, make sure Auntie eats more foods that replenish qi and blood. If that's not possible, always have sugar water on hand!"

Zhang Shuisheng nodded gratefully, then stood up!

After Manager Wu handed the matter of preparing medicine for the woman to the pharmacist, he invited Xie Xiaogang and Wang Xinyao to the back hall of the pharmacy.

In the back hall, the antique medicine cabinet exudes a faint herbal aroma, and sunlight shines through the window onto the ground, forming patches of light and shadow.

As soon as she sat down, Wang Xinyao heard the cold, mechanical voice again: "For the host's contribution of the medicine prescription and his great compassion, he has been awarded 10 Kindness points and a Grandmaster's Secret Manual. For saving the woman's life, he has been awarded 1 Kindness point and a bag of rapeseed seeds."

Wang Xinyao's heart leaped, and she instantly became alert. She quickly glanced around. She saw that Shopkeeper Wu remained composed, his steady face devoid of any unusual expression, as if everything around him was under his control, calm and composed. Meanwhile, Xie Xiaogang, standing nearby, also looked normal, his eyes reflecting his usual concentration or contemplation, unaware of anything unusual.

Wang Xinyao breathed a sigh of relief, silently thankful that this mysterious voice was only hers to hear. The mention of "Grandmaster's Secret Manual" instantly stirred a ripple in her mind. She couldn't help but wonder if it was a martial arts manual? For someone with a passion for martial arts and a single-minded pursuit of higher realms, this was undoubtedly a huge temptation. It seemed she would have to find time to explore the space someday.
