A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles-Chapter 83: The Medicine That Cannot Be Eaten
Chapter 83: Chapter 83: The Medicine That Cannot Be Eaten
Everyone’s faces grew serious as they stared at the luminous Elixir in the little Girl’s hand.
This was especially true for Wang Dongxue. After Ji Youran was struck by lightning, she had asked him if her husband Ji Youyuan’s leg could be healed, now that the Elixir was made.
How hopeful she had been at that time!
Yet, Ji Youran had told her, "Sister-in-law, that Elixir is no longer a common one, but a heavenly and earthly treasure. Big Brother likely can’t use it." ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com
"Suisui!" Wang Dongxue gently called out.
Suisui tilted her head to look at Wang Dongxue. "What is it, Eldest Aunt? This is the medicine that Second Uncle was refining for Eldest Uncle; I helped him put it away."
After Ji Youran was struck by lightning, Old Madam Ji and Wang Dongxue were busy tending to his injuries. So, when they saw the little Girl put away the Elixir—which was like a heavenly and earthly treasure—they didn’t intervene.
Now, seeing her take out the Elixir, their hearts were filled with warmth but also a pang of pain.
An Elixir that should have been of a slightly advanced grade had unexpectedly transformed into a treasure of heaven and earth, yet the patient couldn’t consume it. It was truly... beyond words!
Ji Youyuan fondly patted the little Girl’s head. His heart felt very warm.
"Suisui! Eldest Uncle knows you’re a good child, caring about my leg.
But this Elixir is like a heavenly and earthly treasure; Eldest Uncle isn’t fated to consume it.
You keep it; it might be useful for you in the future!"
Xiaosuisui, being young, didn’t fully understand that Ji Youyuan meant he couldn’t use the Elixir.
Not understanding, she naturally assumed it was a wondrous item that could bring the dead back to life if consumed.
So she replied without hesitation,
"Eldest Uncle, don’t worry, Suisui won’t ever break her leg!
You eat it!
Once you eat it, your leg will get better."
Ji Youyuan: "..."
Why was his heart aching so much?
The Ji Family: "..."
This little Girl, she really knew how to pierce one’s heart. What on earth was she saying?
Suisui is right. I will never need to use these Elixirs again! Not needing Elixirs would mean I would always be free from illness or disaster. How great would that be! As Ji Youyuan thought this, Xiaosuisui had already extended her tiny hand, holding the Elixir, to his mouth.
"Eldest Uncle, open your mouth! Take your medicine."
Xiaosuisui was imitating the way her Eldest Aunt and Third Aunt coaxed her to take medicine, skillfully coaxing Ji Youyuan to open his mouth.
Ji Youyuan: "..."
Should he open his mouth or not?
His second brother had already said that this Elixir was a heavenly and earthly treasure; he was afraid his body wouldn’t be able to handle it.
Old Madam Ji and the others shared this thought, all watching Xiaosuisui’s movements closely.
Alarmed, Wang Dongxue quickly cautioned, "Sweetheart, Eldest Uncle can’t take this..."
However, before she could finish, they watched in horror as Xiaosuisui forcefully shoved the Elixir into Ji Youyuan’s mouth.
Ji Youyuan himself was stunned. Before he could react, he had swallowed the Elixir!
"Husband, how could you eat it? Quick, spit it out!"
Frightened, Wang Dongxue quickly grabbed a bowl, handing it to Ji Youyuan and urging him to spit it out.
With a bitter smile, Ji Youyuan quietly said, "I’ve already swallowed it."
Xiaosuisui picked a preserved fruit from the table.
"Eldest Uncle, was that medicine bitter? Do you want a preserved fruit?"
Ji Youyuan gently shook his head. "It wasn’t bitter, Suisui, you... AH..."
"What’s wrong, Husband?"
Wang Dongxue, who had been watching Ji Youyuan closely, saw him cut off mid-sentence, his face flushing red and the veins on his neck bulging. Alarmed, she hurriedly asked.
Her urgent question also deeply alarmed the rest of the Ji Family.
Everyone quickly gathered around, asking him what was wrong.
"Eldest Brother, what’s happening to you? Do we need to call for a Doctor?"
