His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 1]

Chapter 161: Lin Zhou - General Hu

The poison was a bit tricky --- it wasn't that dangerous as long as it was treated by her acupuncture at the right time.

However, if it was already passed the golden time, then there was also nothing that she could do, except prolonging his life.

Yao Ling made this poison by learning from a rare book that she saw at Wang Luo Hai's study room.

Yao Ying brought it back to her because of her request --- of course, with Wang Luo Hai's permission.

Thus, she was able to learn various types of poison.

It was important for her, After all, she needed more knowledge to understand Mei Li Gu Niang's poison.

For the last reason, Wang Luo Hai was oblivious about it.

They didn't dare to tell him Yao Ying's abnormality until they were sure the reason why Yao Ying wasn't affected by it.

Yao Ling already counted the days and today is the last day for the golden time. Hmmm... this general was quite lucky.

At first, she thought that it was better if he died because it would be easier to take Han Xiang along with them.

However, looking at Xiao Fang's situation, they needed this general's presence as a witness that Xiao Fang was innocent.

Xiao Fang had helped them and they wanted to pay her back in return.

Yao Ling told Xiao Yu to prepare her silver needles, while she explained a little bit more about his condition to General Hu.

"Gong zi, in order to heal your body, I need to do a series of acupuncture. May I?" Yao Ling asked after Xiao Yu came back with the silver needles.

General Hu had no other choice and he agreed. After the treatment, General Hu was able to feel that his body felt a bit better.

His eyes brightened and he quickly gave his thank to Yao Ling.

He could feel the stuffy feeling on his chest had been reduced greatly after Yao Ling's meticulous acupuncture.

A few numb parts on his body were also getting better.

General Hu hesitantly asked, "Have you been in the city for a long time?" He decided to ask the latest situation to Yao Ling without trying to look so obvious.

Yao Ling smiled. "A few days. I'm coming here for a honeymoon. However, it seems like I meet a lot of people that need to be treated." She said in a joking manner, trying to lighten up the mood.

General Hu felt embarrassed and slightly coughed.

He knew that Yao Ling was only joking but somehow he felt guilty.

On the other hand, he felt a bit unsettled when he heard that she was already married.

'Ha~ Why all the good women had been married so fast?' He thought to himself.

"Does something happen in this city recently?" General Hu asked. "I mean... is there anything interesting?"

Yao Ling nodded and recited the part where a bunch of scholars trying to create a ruckus.

General Hu furrowed his eyebrows and asked, "And then?"

"My husband stopped them with his words... However, it's too bad... Even though my husband was able to stop them, but the wedding entourage still got into an unfortunate accident."

General Hu looked up in surprise. "Everyone knows about this already?"

Yao Ling nodded. "Yes ah~ the news has been spread widely..."
