MTL - The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn-Chapter 357 Deficiency cannot be replenished

 Chapter 357: What is weak is not replenished?

Su Leyun opened the jade box, took out the jade comb inside, and placed it in the sun. It really shimmered like a lake.

Xiang Lingling listened to the sound and hesitated: "Cousin, do you still like this gift?"

 Put the jade comb back into the jade box.

Hearing the crisp collision sound, he blinked at Lingling.

“I like it very much, thank you Lingling for your gift.”

Su Leyun ordered Cuiliu to pick up the jade box and sat back down.

At this moment, she asked: "Lingling, how have your eyes been these days?"

He pursed his lower lip towards Lingling and said, "It's still the same, I can't see anything."

As he spoke, he seemed to feel something and moved towards Lingling uneasily.

Su Leyun immediately noticed Xiang Lingling's uneasiness, and smelled a medicinal smell in his nose, which was also mixed with an unspeakable smell.

She looked sideways and saw a middle-aged man with a thin face and deep-set eyes walking towards the house.

 The middle-aged man was followed by a medicine boy, holding medicine in his hand.

 “Miss Xiang, it’s time to take medicine.”

 The middle-aged man spoke as soon as he entered the room.

At the end, he saw Su Leyun, and a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes, "Who is this?"

 “This is Miss Su Leyun from our house.”

Lian Xin stared at the middle-aged man warily and returned.

The middle-aged man then looked back with greedy eyes, "It turns out to be Miss Su Leyun, surnamed Chen, whose name is "Jie". I have met Miss Su Leyun."

His courtesy was hard to fault, but his tone of voice had a slippery feel that was hard to wash away.

 It makes people feel uncomfortable when they hear it.

Su Leyun said calmly: "Doctor Chen, please diagnose and treat cousin Lingling these days."

 “It’s all what I should do.”

Chen Jie was not modest at all. The medicine boy had already stepped forward and placed the bowl in front of Xiang Lingling.

This bowl of medicine is brown and looks very bitter.

Xiang Lingling frowned slightly and reached for it.

Putting the bowl to his mouth, before taking the first sip, Xiang Lingling covered her mouth, retched, and quickly put the bowl down.

 “Lingling?”

Su Leyun held the shaking bowl against his hand, his tone a little hasty.

Xiang Lingling waved her free hand in the air, while the other hand was still covering her mouth, wanting to vomit but unable to do so.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Jie said, "Miss Xiang, if you drink this medicine while it's hot, the effect will be better."

“Doctor Chen, this medicine is really too bitter...”

Xiang Lingling didn’t know whether she drank this medicine for five days or six days. In short, every time she drank it, she felt more bitter than the last time.

Perhaps it was because Su Leyun was here today that she proposed her idea to Lingling for the first time.

“Doctor Chen, does this medicine really work?”

Xiang Lingling knew that she was not a doctor, so she could not identify the efficacy of this bowl of medicine, but as a patient who drank medicine, she would be somewhat aware of whether there was any effect after drinking a bowl of medicine.

 She drank this bowl of medicine for several days. She was not sure whether it would cure her eyes.

 But she could feel her body becoming sleepy and tired.

Even though I have slept for a long time, I still feel it is not enough.

Chen Jie's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was a little heavy.

"Miss Xiang, if you don't believe me, let Mrs. Xiang find another capable person."

"What are you talking about, Doctor Chen? I feel at ease when you treat Lingling." Mrs. Xiang appeared from one side and entered the room, "Lingling, you still haven't apologized to Doctor Chen."

 Xiang Lingling was struggling and seemed unable to speak.

She had no intention of changing the doctor, but she had doubts in her heart and felt uncomfortable hiding it, so she asked.

 Why did Dr. Chen misunderstand her like this?

Su Leyun naturally sees things more clearly than Xiang Lingling. Chen Jie dares to say such things just because he has the support of Mrs. Xiang.

Her eyes passed over the bowl of medicine.

He suddenly opened his mouth, pretending to be puzzled and said: "Doctor Chen, I wonder what is in this medicine that makes it smell so bitter?"

Chen Jie looked at Su Leyun and raised his head a little higher. In his opinion, Su Leyun, a young lady in the family, probably didn't understand these things and was curious.

 “This medicine contains cassia seeds.”

"Oh, is there cassia seed in this medicine?" Su Leyun took the bowl and took a sip. It was really bitter. "How could I remember that cassia seed is not bitter?"

“Miss Su, where did you hear this? Cassia seeds are bitter, as anyone who has studied it knows.”

 Chen Jie sneered.

Su Leyun said again, "Are there really cassia seeds here?"

　　"If Miss Su doesn't believe it, I also have the prescription. See for yourself if there is cassia seed on it!"

 Chen Jie seemed to be angered by Su Leyun's distrustful words, and actually took out the prescription from his arms.

 Xiang frowned at the old lady, feeling that something was not right about the scene in front of her.

This stinky girl has obviously studied medicine, how come she doesn’t even know this bit of common sense.

 “Doctor Chen…”

As soon as Mrs. Xiang started talking, Su Leyun interrupted her, "Dr. Chen, the prescription is not necessarily the same as the ingredients you used to make the medicine. Maybe you used another prescription to lie to me?"

“Okay, then I’ll ask someone to get the medicine residue!”

Chen Jie was even more displeased that a hairy girl dared to question her again and again.

　　It really made him feel dissatisfied.

Mrs. Xiang already understood that there was something wrong with this, but in full view of the public, she could not do anything.

She couldn't help but glance at Chen Jie. She had clearly told Chen Jie that Su Leyun was a doctor, so why did she still fall into Su Leyun's trap?

 Actually, Madam Xiang did say this, but she also mentioned Divine Doctor Wang, so Chen Jie subconsciously thought that the person who really did the work was Divine Doctor Wang, and did not remember Su Leyun in his mind at all.

 In his opinion, how powerful can a little girl be?

As soon as the medicine boy heard Chen Jie's words, he immediately turned around and ran out.

Looking at his posture, it was obvious that he had been beaten by Chen Jie without any delay.

Su Leyun's eyes fell on Mrs. Xiang, with a slight smile on her lips.

　　The old lady who wanted to do something froze.

 She could feel the meaning in Su Leyun's smile.

 Soon, the medicine boy brought the medicine residue.

Chen Jie picked out the burnt cassia seeds and placed them on the table one by one.

 “This is Cassia Seed.”

While he was speaking, he noticed that Su Leyun was taking something else out of the medicine residue.

He looked intently, his face trembled, and a sense of absurdity arose in his heart.

The few medicinal herbs selected by Su Leyun, looked at alone, there is nothing wrong with them, but when added together, they will produce another effect.

This effect intensifies the potency of this bowl of medicine.

 It will make the patient over-replenished, which will lead to a situation of deficiency and lack of replenishment.

 Chen Jie looked over to Old Madam Xiang, and saw that Old Madam Xiang's face was not very good-looking either. At this time, he remembered something that Old Madam Xiang had said to him.
