Chapter 219: Snatch?
Li Mingxia has taken out the best ginseng in the space. This ginseng is at least a thousand years old. Such a thing should be able to save Zhang's life.
The doctor didn't expect that this little girl actually had ginseng in her body, so he quickly took it and began to examine it.
"It's actually a thousand-year-old ginseng! Little girl, where did you get it from?" The doctor was knowledgeable and he said immediately after taking a few glances.
How could Li Mingxia have the leisure to explain all this to him?
"Doctor, just tell me, will my mother survive after taking this?" Li Mingxia grabbed the doctor's hand and asked anxiously.
The doctor took another look at the ginseng in his hand, nodded with certainty, and said, "I am still confident of this. As long as the mother doesn't die immediately, she can at least keep alive. Your family should quickly send someone to the town to get the medicine according to my prescription, and your mother will survive!"
After hearing this, Li Mingxia finally felt relieved.
"It's just... little girl, you are really filial." The doctor took out a small jade knife from his bag while speaking.
"If this thing were sold, I can't even imagine how much it would fetch. You're really generous to your mother."
As he spoke, the doctor's knife began to cut, and a thin slice of ginseng appeared in the doctor's hand.
"Just pinch your mother's mouth open and let her hold it in her mouth. Don't worry, this is not an ordinary thing. As long as you have this ginseng and are willing to spend money on medicine, I will definitely be able to save this person for you."
Li Mingxia pinched Zhang's mouth open and handed the money and the prescription written by the doctor to Li Zhengpin.
"Brother, I don't trust anyone. I only trust you now. Go and prescribe medicine for mom." Li Mingxia said to Li Zhengpin.
Li Sanlang opened his mouth and wanted to say that he could go, but when he looked down and saw that Old Lady Zheng had not let go of his hand yet, he suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Or else..." Li Zhengpin was extremely anxious, but he still hesitated when he saw the prescription and money handed over to him.
He was somewhat concerned about leaving Li Mingxia alone in a place like the old house, but he couldn't leave his younger sister here, because he was also concerned about leaving his half-dead mother in the hands of anyone other than Li Mingxia, including Li Sanlang who was standing in front of him.
But just like Li Zhengpin didn't trust Li Sanlang, Li Mingxia now had zero trust in Li Sanlang. How could Zhang become like this after coming to the old house? Li Sanlang came with her, but he couldn't protect Zhang and let her suffer so much?
And the baby in Zhang's belly was Li Sanlang's child! How could Li Mingxia bear this?
"Brother, I'm here with Mom, don't worry, nothing will happen. Go quickly and come back soon. Mom's life is in your hands." Li Mingxia looked at Li Zhengpin with a mist in his eyes.
Li Zhengpin didn't say anything more. He took the prescription and money from Li Mingxia and ran out without looking back. From beginning to end, Old Lady Zheng kept pulling Li Sanlang's sleeve and refused to let him move no matter what.
Li Mingxia watched Li Zhengpin leave the courtyard, then turned around and carefully observed Zhang's expression.
The thousand-year-old ginseng is indeed worthy of its reputation, and the doctor was not exaggerating. Zhang's complexion has visibly improved a lot, and is no longer as pale and bloodless as before. Even her breathing has become much steadier.
Old Mrs. Zheng stared at the thousand-year-old ginseng in the doctor's hand like a hungry wolf. She had just seen Zhang almost dying, and was saved by this ginseng!
Moreover, the doctor just mentioned a lot of benefits. This ginseng is no ordinary thing!
The more Mrs. Zheng looked at the ginseng, the more greedy she became. She thought it was extremely rare.
No matter you use it yourself or sell it for money, you won’t have to worry about anything if you have this ginseng!
"Doctor, can you cut another slice? Will it be more effective?" Li Mingxia secretly felt Zhang's pulse and felt that she was not as weak as before. He also thought that since he had used such a thin slice of ginseng just now, would the medicinal power be insufficient?
The doctor took a look at Li Mingxia. Naturally, the more ginseng was used, the stronger the medicinal power would be. He was originally worried that Li Mingxia's family would feel sorry for the ginseng, so he only used a thin piece. But now seeing what the little girl said, people really didn't care how much ginseng was used, as long as the woman on the kang was fine.
Not to mention the country families, even the rich families in the town couldn't afford such good ginseng. It must be said that this woman was really lucky.
"Okay!" The doctor had no more scruples, picked up the knife and was about to cut again, but this time it was not so smooth.
Old Mrs. Zheng looked at the knife as if it was going to cut her body! She let go of Li Sanlang's sleeve with a cry and rushed over to snatch the ginseng.
But Li Mingxia was quick-witted and blocked Old Lady Zheng when she pounced on him.
"What are you doing? Do you really think I don't dare to fight with you? You'd better just watch quietly from the side and don't let me do anything to you!" Li Mingxia used to think that Li Sanlang was unwilling to do anything out of line to Old Lady Zheng, for fear of hurting Li Sanlang's feelings. But now Li Mingxia feels annoyed just by looking at Li Sanlang, so why would he still consider these things?
Old Mrs. Zheng was not afraid at all. She was used to being domineering in the Li family's old house. She didn't even regard her granddaughter and daughter-in-law as human beings. How could she be afraid?
"You dare to hit me?!" Old Mrs. Zheng looked at Li Mingxia with disdain, and was determined to get the ginseng today no matter what. However, she didn't know that Li Mingxia had completely broken off relations with her and would not give her any chance at all.
"Let me tell you, you little slut, this is my home, your father is my son! You dare to hit me! Try it?"
Old Mrs. Zheng looked at Li Mingxia triumphantly and reached out to grab Li Mingxia's hair.
"Little girl, I have to teach you a lesson today! I'll let you know that you are a money-loser! Do you still have the right to speak here?! I really give you face!" Old Madam Zheng scolded loudly! She looked like she wanted to tear Li Mingxia apart.
But Li Mingxia stretched out his hand and slapped the hand that Old Lady Zheng stretched out to him. There was a crisp sound of "slap", and then followed by Old Lady Zheng's heart-wrenching roar!
"You dare to hit me! You stinky little girl! I think you are crazy!"
