185 She Seemed to See a Man Sitting by Her Bedside
Madam Qi was still playing in the water, but when the Red Flame Needle entered her body, her body began to tremble as if it was spasming.
Nanny Sheng stood aside and watched Madam Qi in pain with tears in her eyes, not daring to make a sound.
Gu Qingxue stabilized Madam Qi and continued to perform acupuncture on her.
She was extremely careful with every injection, afraid that she would accidentally hurt Madam Qi.
Fortunately, Madam Qi did not struggle for a long time and soon became calm.
However, after she stopped convulsing and trembling, her face gradually turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing Madam Qi’s expression, Gu Qingxue heaved a sigh of relief.
She did not pull out the Red Dlame Needle but continued to heat up the bathtub, accurately adjusting the temperature of the water and observing Madam Qi’s condition.
Nanny Sheng stood at the side and did not dare to interrupt. She watched helplessly as Madam Qi’s entire body slowly turned red. After an hour, her face actually turned into a strange pig liver color.
Nanny Sheng was so frightened that goosebumps appeared on her back, but she did not dare to open her mouth and disturb Gu Qingxue.
Gu Qingxue looked at Madam Qi calmly.
She took in every expression of Madam Qi.
Madam Qi clenched her teeth, looking like they were suffering.
When she heard Madam Qi grunt, she quickly pulled out all the red flame needles and slapped one of the acupuncture points on Madam Qi’s back.
“Puff!” Madam Qi finally opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of pitch-black poisonous blood.
“Old Madam!” Nanny Sheng was shocked and rushed forward.
Gu Qingxue wiped away the blood stains on Madam Qi’s body and gave her another pill.
Seeing Madam Qi’s complexion improve, Gu Qingxue let out a sigh of relief.
It seemed that her treatment method was not wrong. A part of the poison in her grandma’s body had been forced out.
It was just unclear how effective the treatment this time would be.
“Nanny Sheng, the treatment is over. Come and help put on my grandmother’s clothes and let her rest.” Gu Qingxue wiped the sweat from her forehead and let out a long breath.
Nanny Sheng and Gu Qingxue quickly dragged Madam Qi out of the bathtub, helped her to put on her clothes, and then put her back on the bed.
After doing all this, the two of them were so tired that they were panting.
“Eldest Miss, you’ve worked hard. Let this old servant handle this,” Nanny Sheng said to Gu Qingxue with heartache.
“The Eldest Miss had been working hard for the past few days without sleep or rest in order to detoxify the Old Madam. It was really too tiring to watch.”
After being reminded by Nanny Sheng, Gu Qingxue clearly felt the tiredness in her body, so she did not refuse. She got up and went back to the room where the three cubs were to rest.
It was a dreamless night, and Gu Qingxue slept until early morning.
The crisp chirping of birds came from outside the window. She had obviously woken up, but her body was still so lazy that she did not want to move.
She could even clearly feel how the three children tiptoed out of bed, put on their clothes, and left. Gu Qingxue narrowed her eyes, unwilling to move her fingers.
She closed her eyes and soon fell into a dream. While she was half-asleep, she seemed to see a man sitting by her bed.
The man had the fresh and pleasant smell of soap. He reached out his hand to stroke her long hair and said with a doting tone, “Xue’er, it’s time to get up.”
This scene seemed familiar, as if it was a memory of this body.
In her memory, she vaguely remembered that the husband of the body’s previous owner had always used such a gentle tone to wake her up.
It turned out to be a dream.
