Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother
Chapter 450 The consequences will be disastrous
Now, I suddenly heard someone say that her illness has hope of being cured!
"Doctor Tao, can you really believe what you just said?" Lord Ji's voice was filled with excitement.
Faced with his expectations, Tao Qiming and Ye Yunzi's expressions became more solemn.
They understand that even a 30% success rate means huge risks, and the slightest mistake could make things worse.
Although many famous doctors were helpless, Ji Houye and Ji Xinying saw a glimmer of hope from Tao Qiming. Even if there was only a 1% chance, they were willing to try.
"Doctor Tao, please save Yingying! As long as she can live, I am willing to pay any price, even my title!" Lord Ji said earnestly.
Tao Qiming looked up at him, his tone heavy:
"Miss Ji's condition is extremely critical, and her chance of recovery is only 30%. If there is any mistake during the detoxification process, it may cause her immediate death."
Lord Ji's expression suddenly became serious. He knew that if he didn't risk treatment, Yingying might only live for another year or two; but if the treatment failed, the result would be losing her immediately.
He turned to Yingying with a complicated look, struggling in his heart. Yingying, on the other hand, was pale, with her hands clenched tightly, obviously also experiencing a huge inner struggle.
The room was silent, as if even the air was suffocating due to the heaviness.
Finally, Yingying broke the silence: "Let's give it a try."
"Yingying, this is too dangerous!" Lord Ji tried to stop it, but was worried that if he failed, the consequences would be disastrous.
But Yingying's voice was trembling but very firm:
"I am already very content, father. I hope to at least try, and I long to live like an ordinary person instead of being trapped indoors all day. Even if I die on the way, it will be a relief for me."
"Yingying..."
"Dad, please agree to me. This is my wish." Yingying pleaded with tears in her eyes.
Faced with his daughter's determination, Lord Ji clenched his fists, suppressed his grief, and finally nodded in agreement: "Okay."
Then he closed his eyes, afraid he might change his mind.
In the next few days, Tao Qiming began to prepare the necessary medicinal materials and arranged for Yingying to stay in Ningcaotang for treatment. Since she needed to take herbal medicine regularly, it would undoubtedly be more convenient to have him take care of her.
Ye Yunzi was full of gratitude for Tao Qiming's help. Even though they had no direct relationship, he always lent a helping hand without hesitation.
To express her gratitude, she quietly handed Tao Qiming a wooden sign of another pharmacy.
"Doctor Tao, all the herbs in this shop are at your disposal."
"There is also money in the account, you can spend it as you wish."
Tao Qiming raised his head and looked at the generous Ye Yunzi, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. Such a kind girl is so rare!
Ye Yunzi is about to get married with Si Yan and become a family. Thinking of this, Tao Qiming happily took the wooden sign of the pharmacy.
"I'll take you back first and come to see you tomorrow." Ye Yunzi said.
"Okay, go ahead and rest assured." Tao Qiming patted his chest and assured that everything was fine.
After seeing off Lord Ji, Ye Yunzi actually wanted to hear the story behind it, knowing that he must have something to say.
Sure enough, Lord Ji sighed and said, "Let's go to a nearby teahouse and sit down."
The two of them came to the teahouse, where the aroma of tea filled their nostrils and the warmth filled their air. Ye Yunzi took a sip of tea and looked towards Lord Ji.
After a moment of silence, Lord Ji slowly spoke: "Do you still remember the time I broke my promise to your mother?"
Ye Yunzi nodded, her memory still fresh in her mind. It was in the same teahouse, and in order to ease her mother's knot, she had specially invited Lord Ji to tell her about the past.
It turns out that Lord Ji and Ye Yunzi's mother were once lovers who planned to elope, but failed due to an accident.
My mother later married into the Ye family in the capital, and by the time Lord Ji arrived it was too late.
Although this incident was regrettable, it seemed to have nothing to do with Ji Xinying's poisoning, which confused Ye Yunzi.
Lord Ji took a deep breath and continued, "I was attacked and injured on the road, and I recuperated in my hometown for several months.
When I arrived in the capital, I found that your mother had already married. Later, I learned that she was safe and sound, so I returned to my hometown. "
At this point, Lord Ji's hands began to tremble, and he tightly grasped the teacup:
"However, when I returned home, I found that within just half a month, the entire family was wiped out. Only the old servant and the baby Yingying managed to escape by chance, but she was also poisoned..."
Ye Yunzi was shocked, she never thought there was such a tragedy behind it. The Ji family's experience was heartbreaking, and Lord Ji was left alone since then.
"Who did it?" Ye Yunzi asked.
Lord Ji's face turned cold, and he crushed the teacup in his hand angrily: "I am sure that the murderer who killed my family is the villain who made me lose my legs!"
Things always happen unexpectedly by coincidence.
For many years, he has been searching for the truth, from his hometown to the capital, but he has never found it.
Ye Yunzi frowned and chewed on Lord Ji's words. Who would attack the Ji family? The conspiracy behind this was hard to figure out.
Lord Ji took a deep breath and said calmly, "Later, I placed Yingying in Jingzhou because I didn't want her to be involved in the disputes in the capital."
"If anything happens to her, how am I going to explain it to her parents?"
At this point, Lord Ji's voice became heavy. He watched Yingying grow from a baby to a beautiful girl, and loved her as if she were his own.
Whenever he saw her suffering from the cold poison, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
Although he never gave up looking for medical treatment for Yingying, the answers he got every time were despairing news.
Ye Yunzi comforted her, "Miss Yingying is not destined to die. She will be safe and sound."
Lord Ji tried his best to control his inner sadness and nodded to express his gratitude.
"It's all thanks to you today. If you hadn't taken Yingying to see Doctor Tao in time, the consequences would have been disastrous."
"This is what I should do. My Lord, don't worry too much."
"Remember, everything I tell you today must be kept confidential."
"I understand." Ye Yunzi nodded in agreement, but her eyes revealed a barely perceptible determination.
She decided to get to the bottom of the strange things that happened in the Ji family. Even if it was just to repay her mother, she wanted to uncover the secrets behind it all.
Lord Ji did not notice the ripples in Ye Yunzi's heart and just looked at her gently.
No matter what, as the daughter of an old friend, he always has a special feeling for Ye Yunzi.
Then he took out an iron token from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Yunzi.
"Your wedding is in a month. I'm afraid it won't be convenient for me to congratulate you in person then, so give this as a gift in advance."
"What is this?" Ye Yunzi took the token and was surprised when she recognized it as the logo from Tieyun Pavilion.
