Chapter 911: Chapter 914 Rescued
Bai Yifan had also said that Musk was an excellent traditional Chinese medicine with the effect of dispelling impurities and could quickly enter the muscles and bone marrow to maximize the medicinal effects.
It must have been the Musk that accelerated the efficacy of the medicine and saved Almond from a narrow escape from death!
Does that mean adding a dose of Musk to the medicine could cure the epidemic?
"Add Musk, go and decoct the medicine now!" Duo’er urged.
Qing Xin nodded and immediately ran towards the kitchen.
Qing Yue followed as well, muttering, "Musk should act as a catalyst; don’t put too much in it!"
"I know, just a very small amount will suffice." Qing Xin nodded in agreement.
Unlike her usual worried frown, Qing Xin couldn’t help but smile while preparing the medicine. 𝘯𝑜𝑣𝑝𝑢𝘣.𝑐𝑜𝑚
"Our Madam is truly blessed, she found the remedy just by messing around, even more formidable than our young master!"
Qing Yue couldn’t help but ask, "Whose side are you on, the Bai Family’s or the Tan Family’s?"
"Can’t I be on the Tan Family’s side with the left and the Bai Family’s with the right? My life was saved by the young master, and Madam treats me like family. Whatever they ask of me, I have no objections!" Qing Xin said with squinted eyes.
Although she was a Maid, this did not prevent her from feeling like the luckiest person in the world.
Qing Yue had the same feelings, but she was more reserved than Qing Xin.
When the medicine was half prepared, Qing Yue sighed, "However, the fetus might not survive if a pregnant woman drinks this medicine."
There were ingredients like cinnabar in the medicine, which could negatively affect the fetus.
Even if it didn’t cause a miscarriage, it could lead to deformities and other issues.
If an unfortunate pregnant woman caught the epidemic, she would certainly have to sacrifice the child in her womb, which was truly cruel to a mother.
"You think too much, if one can’t even save themselves, how can they think about the child?" Qing Xin said nonchalantly, as she disliked children for their constant crying and fussing, which annoyed her.
Especially upon seeing some women suffer unbearable pain, she became even more determined not to have children.
"That’s true, if we can save even one person, that’s enough."
Qing Yue came to understand as well, as long as someone remained alive, there would eventually be children.
After Almond drank the medicine, she quickly showed signs of improvement, and regained consciousness.
"Am I dead?" Almond asked weakly.
"Of course not, you’re doing very well now. If you want to die, it might take another few decades," Qing Xin replied immediately.
Almond blinked in disbelief.
This morning she felt something blocking her throat; could it be that she didn’t suffocate?
"Madam was afraid you couldn’t stand the smell in the house, so she put some Musk in your room, and unexpectedly Musk is the nemesis of the epidemic, so that’s how you were saved," Qing Xin explained simply.
Tears welled up in Almond’s eyes—it was Madam who had saved her!
Overwhelmed with excitement, Almond’s face flushed red.
"Calm down, it was hard enough bringing you back; don’t die from happiness, what an injustice that would be!" Qing Xin hurriedly said.
As Almond’s condition gradually improved, it confirmed that Musk was effective against the epidemic.
Tan Zhenghong asked with bewilderment, "Wife, how did it get better with the addition of Musk?"
"This epidemic is acute, but the effects of traditional Chinese medicine are mild and almost ineffective against acute diseases; Musk resolves this problem," Qiao Duo’er explained. Before, this was just her conjecture, but now it had been confirmed.
"You are amazing!" Tan Zhenghong gave her a thumbs-up.
"It’s just that Musk is not a common ingredient; I wonder if it can be used on a large scale," Qiao Duo’er furrowed her brow.
