Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Wei Bingyan went over to feel Wei Longrui's pulse without saying a word, while Bai Binghui on the side had already prepared the needle.

Fortunately, he had drunk a lot of rich bean soup to detoxify, so he was no longer in danger. There was just some toxin in his body. Wei Bingyan wrote a prescription for treatment and asked Anxiang to get all the herbs to boil the medicine immediately.

After the quick and efficient acupuncture, Wei Longrui's complexion looked better and his breathing became smoother.

"How is A Rui?" Xiao asked while holding A Shengguo, who was crying softly.

Wei Bingyan looked directly at Ah Sheng, who was crying more and more weakly and about to fall asleep in her arms, "A Rui is fine, mother, let me take a look at Ah Sheng."

Xiao said, "A Sheng is fine. A Rui drank half a bowl of milk and noticed something was wrong. When A Sheng wanted to drink the milk, he spilled the milk. A Sheng got some on his lips. I was worried, so I forced him to drink the bean soup."

Wei Zhong walked in, looking nervous, "Why is Ah Sheng silent?"

"I was just tired and fell asleep." Xiao said, her eyes quickly turning red and wet, and she looked at Wei Zhong with resentment.

Wei Bingyan was still worried, so she took Ah Sheng's pulse and examined him carefully. Fortunately, no toxins had invaded his body, he was just scared and tired of crying.

"How could milk contain poison? Fortunately, A Rui and A Sheng were fine, otherwise..." Wei Bingyan looked at Wei Zhong with fear in her heart, subconsciously thinking that it was these concubines of his who were stirring up trouble again.

Xiao handed Ah Sheng over to the wet nurse beside her, "Guard Ah Sheng well, and don't let him leave for a moment." After that, she said coldly, "I want to see who dares to poison the two young masters with ill intentions!"

Wei Zhong's face was gloomy. "Investigate! We must investigate thoroughly. Whoever it is, cripple him and send him to the government office."

The director who went out to ask for the doctor came back. The doctor took the pulses of the two young masters meticulously and found that there was nothing wrong except a weak pulse. He looked at Wei Zhong in surprise and said, "Master Wei, this... doesn't require a consultation from an old man at all."

"Doctor, can you tell what the poison is?" Wei Bingyan asked. From the milk that Arui vomited out, it seemed that the poison was not very strong. If one was not careful, one would think that the vomiting was caused by eating something wrong.

"Did a toxin invade the body?" The doctor was stunned. He thought he just had an upset stomach. He checked Ari again and said, "...This toxin is really hard to see."

Wei Bingyan shuddered. It was indeed true. This poison was hard to come by. She had never even heard of it in her previous life.

Wei Zhong didn't care what the poison was like. He asked anxiously, "Doctor, is there any way to cure this poison?"

The doctor frowned and said ashamedly, "The old man is so ignorant that he doesn't even know how to eliminate the toxins."

Hearing the doctor say this, Wei Zhong asked someone to send him back with a gloomy face.

"Is there any more of the milk that Arui drank?" Wei Bingyan asked Li Ma directly without caring what Wei Zhong thought.

Nanny Li responded and went to the kitchen herself, bringing in half a bowl of milk. The milk had not yet been boiled, and the color of the milk had a hint of gold.

It is a very light color, and you can't see it at all if you don't look carefully.

"Go and squeeze another bowl." Wei Bingyan said.

Xiao looked at Wei Bingyan, then at A Rui who was still sleeping, her eyes were frozen. She was indeed surprised. Everything at home was under her control, but someone dared to attack her child.

"Bingyan, I leave this to you." Xiao looked at Wei Bingyan and left the safety of the two children to her with peace of mind.

Knowing that her mother was going to catch the person who poisoned her with ill intentions, Wei Bingyan nodded, "Mother, you can put your worries at ease now."

Bai Binghui quickly brought over a bowl of freshly squeezed milk and placed it on the table for a while. As expected, the milk had a very light golden color.

She looked intently at Wei Longrui, who vomited again after taking the medicine, and thought with lingering fear in her heart that if she was not suspicious and was completely sure that A Rui was poisoned by someone with ulterior motives, she might not have been able to tell that the milk was drugged.

The person who poisoned the cows was very smart. He did not tamper with the milk directly, but fed the poison to the two cows. In this way, it would not be easy to find out who poisoned the cows.

"What did the young madam see?" Aunt Yin asked softly.

Wei Bingyan said softly: "This poison... I have seen it in books. It is very rare in the Tang Dynasty. If a small amount is used, it can be used to carefully treat the abdominal distension of livestock. If too much is used... especially in dairy cows, it is not difficult to leave poisonous bacteria."

Obviously, there were not many poisonous fungi on these two cows, but for Asheng, who was just over 100 years old, they were life-threatening.

It was intentionally targeted at A Sheng!

Wei Bingyan thought about everyone in the family. Was it Li Xiaoshi? Only such a woman made her feel dangerous, but why at this time?

The more she thought about it, the more confused she felt. Wei Bingyan checked A Rui's pulse again and confirmed that he had no serious problems. She also asked Anxiang to cook some other medicine for him to swallow, and told Xia Yuezhu and the others to look after A Rui personally. She also gave A Sheng a pill to strengthen his body after adding some water to it, and then she took Bai Binghui out.

Xiao called all the servants in the house together, and none of the concubines and mistresses could be eliminated.

After a careful count of the number of people, I found that the grandmother who usually feeds the cows was missing.

"Go and find the person!" Xiao said with a gloomy face.

Wei Zhong was standing near Xiao and noticed that Xiao looked different today than in the past, as if he had a bit more ferocity that he had never seen before.

From feeding the cows to milking, everyone in the kitchen who was in charge of cooking milk was interrogated. Except for the mother-in-law who still hadn't found the way to feed the cows, everyone cried out that they had suffered a great injustice and could not find the person behind the scenes.

Xiao ordered the execution with a cold face, but the man was beaten all over and still nothing was revealed.

Those people were slaves purchased after arriving in Baiyue. Xiao didn't believe it at all. After beating them up, she had them driven out. Then, she brought over the three concubines who had come to the kitchen today.

In the eyes of all the servants and Wei Zhong's other women, Xiao was a warm and generous mistress who had strength but no breadth of mind. Apart from the servants who followed her from the capital to Baiyue, few truly respected her.

Especially those concubines and maids who are favored and pampered.

In front of Xiao, she hugged Wei Zhong's calf, tears streaming down her face, and begged him to make the decision.

The brutal methods Xiao used to deal with those maids frightened them all.
