Divine Doctor Cheng imdiately said, "Nonsense, how is that possible?"
Even if it wasn’t a miracle dicine he prescribed, it wouldn’t kill soone, right!
"If you don’t believe , see for yourself." Xuexue threw the dicine in front of him and said sarcastically, "This is poison, I wouldn’t take it even if given for free; why don’t you keep it for yourself."
Divine Doctor Cheng picked up the dicine, opened the paper bag, and checked it ticulously, and suddenly his expression changed dramatically. He muttered to himself, "Oh no! How could this happen? What’s going on?"
The woman said, "Divine Doctor Cheng, what’s going on?"
"There’s a problem, a big problem, auntie, please sit for a while, let attend to you later."
The woman covered her stomach with her hand, full of pain, "Alright!"
It wouldn’t help either way, soone ca looking, and the divine doctor had no concern for himself.
"Waiter, waiter, what’s going on?" Divine Doctor Cheng shouted, calling out to the young assistant who was weighing dicine at the counter.
The young assistant looked up, seeing everyone staring at him, he was a bit bewildered, asking, "Shopkeeper, is there sothing?"
"Co over here."
"Yes!"
The young assistant put down his tasks, stepped out from behind the counter, and ca over to stand in front of the shopkeeper.
Divine Doctor Cheng threw the pack of dicine in front of him, angrily saying, "Look for yourself, what’s going on?"
"What’s wrong? I packed this last night, shopkeeper, is there a problem?"
"There is a problem, a big problem." Divine Doctor Cheng’s face flushed with anger, "Co here, look closely."
The young assistant checked again, saying, "There’s no problem!"
"No problem? What is this? Sll it yourself." Divine Doctor Cheng pinched so powder from the dicine bag, holding it under the young assistant’s nose for a sniff.
The young assistant sniffed and said, "This is fritillaria, there’s no problem!"
"No problem? Look again, what’s in this?" Divine Doctor Cheng pointed to the package of dicine.
The young assistant looked closely again, and suddenly his face changed dramatically, mumbling, "How could aconite and fritillaria be mixed together?"
The woman beside him was confused and asked, "Divine Doctor, what’s the problem with mixing aconite and fritillaria? Aren’t they both dicines?"
"Of course there’s a problem. Used separately, they’re good dicines. Used together, they’re poison, and in large doses, it’s deadly."
"Ah!"
The woman gaped, speechless, no wonder the young lady ca here, the dical Hall had caused a big trouble.
Divine Doctor Cheng glared at the young assistant furiously, "I taught you to work diligently in the dical Hall; a small mistake can cost lives."
The young assistant felt wronged too, he didn’t know what happened. How did the fritillaria and aconite get mixed together? He couldn’t figure it out.
Just then, a little kid ran out from the inner room, about three to four years old, wearing a blue jacket, with a chubby face and very cute.
He rushed to the counter, opened all the cabinets where the dicine was stored, grabbing a handful here and there, making a ss of the dicines.
Everyone understood then what had happened. It turned out, all the issues were caused by this little kid.
He had mixed the fritillaria with the aconite, and since the fritillaria was powdered, the young assistant didn’t know and packed it for Zi Xia. Luckily, the amount wasn’t large, so no harm was done.
After understanding the situation, Divine Doctor Cheng felt a bit guilty, "Miss, it wasn’t intentional, you see...?"
