Ye Xiao looked at the bees and started to say something. But before she could finish, Jiang Peihuan said, “No, these bees could be poisonous. If anyone gets stung on the face, they could get scars.”
...When Jiang Peihuan said this, Xiao Nanye looked at Xue Qi and Deputy General Liu. He asked, “Who will go?”
Jiang Peihuan didn’t say anything.
She was not scared, but she was a girl and didn’t like insects like bees.
Looking at the dark swarm of bees, Xue Qi wished he had brought more people from his house.
Thinking for a moment, Xue Qi tentatively looked at Deputy General Liu, “Shall I go?”
“Okay, be careful, young master Xue.”
Deputy General Liu agreed as soon as Xue Qi spoke.
Seeing him back off instantly, Xue Qi was surprised.
Since Xue Qi was her cousin, after thinking for a while, Jiang Peihuan took a handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it to him, “Cousin Qi, cover your face with this.”
When Xue Qi took the handkerchief, Xiao Nanye and Jiang Peihuan moved back quickly.
Seeing this, Xue Qi was speechless.
“Cousin Qi?”
Just as Xue Qi was about to go forward, Jiang Peihuan called out to him.
Xue Qi smiled. He was happy that his cousin cared about him.
Jiang Peihuan advised, “Be careful when you pull out the plant. Pull out the whole thing. And use your sleeve, not your hand.”
“Okey.”
Xue Qi’s smile disappeared quickly. He covered his face with the handkerchief and moved forward.
Xue Qi stepped on a branch and went ahead. The whole tree shook when he stepped on it. He held his breath when he saw the shaking beehive.
Carefully walking to the hundred grass root, Xue Qi bent over, covered the small grass with his sleeve, and pulled hard. The whole plant was pulled out.
Seeing that all the roots were still intact, Jiang Peihuan was overjoyed and quickly shouted, “Cousin Qi, come back quickly.”
Hearing her, Xue Qi turned around quickly. But as he started to move, he heard a buzzing sound.
“Cousin Qi, run!”
Seeing the beehive fall, Jiang Peihuan quickly shouted.
Xue Qi ran, but he couldn’t run faster than the bees. He felt a lot of pain as the bees stung him.
All he could do was cover his face with his sleeve.
When he saw the bees fly out, Xiao Nanye quickly covered Jiang Peihuan’s face with his sleeve. He then pulled her close to him.
They walked a good distance before they no longer saw the bees.
Jiang Peihuan turned to look at Xue Qi and asked softly, “Cousin Qi, are you okay?”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Xue Qi put down his sleeve. Seeing his face, Jiang Peihuan couldn’t help but laugh.
Xue Qi’s forehead had been stung several times even though he had covered his face.
Jiang Peihuan was smiling, and Xue Qi was upset. He said, “I got stung badly, and you’re still laughing.”
“We’ll ask Ye Xiao to get you some medicine when we get back. Apply it, and you’ll be fine in a couple of days,” Jiang Peihuan stopped laughing and spoke softly in response to Xue Qi’s words.
XXue Qi, despite being upset, was happy they found the special herb they were looking for. He used a handkerchief to protect the hundred grass root in his hand, then looked at Jiang Peihuan and asked, “Is this good?”
“Yes, it’s fine. Let’s go back,” she said, nodding as she saw the root was intact.
They took the main road on their way back.
However, when they reached the foot of the mountain, Jiang Peihuan noticed that the bumps on Xue Qi’s forehead had grown significantly larger.
His face had also turned slightly pale.
Jiang Peihuan quickly called out, “Ye Xiao, please check on my cousin Qi.”
Upon hearing her, Ye Xiao quickly took Xue Qi’s wrist and after a careful examination, she turned to Jiang Peihuan, “Miss, these bees are poisonous. Young Master Qi was stung several times and there’s some toxin accumulation in his body.”
“Give him this medicine.” As Jiang Peihuan was thinking about finding some herbal medicine for Xue Qi, Xiao Nanye handed her a porcelain bottle.
As soon as Jiang Peihuan received the porcelain bottle, she recognized the scent of the Coagulation Pill, which could neutralize any poison. However, this medicine was extremely rare.
Xue Qi, being a knowledgeable man, recognized the value of the pill in Jiang Peihuan’s hand. He quickly objected, “No need, 1 was just stung by a few bees. Applying medicine later when we get home is fine. This medicine is too expensive, better if…”
“These bees are wild and highly venomous. If we delay further, we don’t know what harm it might cause your body.”
“Eat this Coagulation Pill first.”
While speaking, Jiang Peihuan had already put the pill into Xue Qi’s mouth.
With the pill already in his mouth, he had no choice but to swallow it.
Soon after swallowing it, Xue Qi felt much better. He walked up to Xiao Nanye and respectfully thanked him, “Thank you, Your Highness.”
Xiao Nanye didn’t look at Xue Qi, but told Jiang Peihuan, “Let’s go back before it gets too hot.”
“Okay,” she agreed.
They all rode their horses back to the Xue House.
Just as Jiang Peihuan reached the courtyard gate, she saw the anxious Nanny Yun Gui.
Seeing Jiang Peihuan, she immediately said, “Young Little Miss, you’re finally back. The old madam has been asking about you.”
“Don’t worry, Nanny Yun. 1 just went to find some medicine for my grandmother. You go back to her first. I’ll change my clothes and then go see her.”
“Take your time, Young Little Miss. Have some rest.”
After Yun Gui left, Jiang Peihuan returned to her room and changed her clothes.
“Go tell His Highness that I’ll see him later.”
Thinking of Xiao Nanye, Jian Peihuan quietly instructed Deputy General Liu.
Seeing him nod, Jiang Peihuan then left with Ye Xiao to the old madam’s courtyard.
“Huan Er, why were you in such a rush? You left very early in the morning to get medicine for me.”
Old Madam Xue held Jiang Peihuan’s hand, her eyes full of concern.
Seeing the look in her grandmother’s eyes, Jiang Peihuan gently held her hand, “Grandma, it’s okay.”
“Grandma, stop worrying about Huan Er. You should care about your grandson instead.”
At this point, Xue Qi also entered after changing his clothes.
As soon as he entered, the old madam saw the bumps on his head. Although she felt sorry for him, seeing Xue Qi’s state, she couldn’t help but laugh, “What happened to you?”
Seeing the smile on the old madam’s face, Xue Qi looked sad, “Grandma, I was stung while picking medicine for you, and you’re still laughing at me.”
“Did you see a doctor after being stung like this?”
“Grandma, don’t worry. I’ve already applied medicine, and i’ll be fine in a couple of days.”
Seeing the concern in his grandmother’s eyes, Xue Qi quickly assured her..
