Rolling all the way down to the mid-hillside, he finally stopped when a huge stone blocked his path.

He didn't know if it was the blow to his head that knocked him out or if the snake venom had reached its peak, as his consciousness was scattered and he felt dizzy. He thought about going home and seeing his wife again, but his limbs wouldn't listen to his commands anymore…

It's getting dark, and Su Qingyue is happily walking back to the Xiao family home… no, it should be called her home now, with one hand carrying two bundles of herbs and the other carrying a basket.

After finding a wild bayberry tree, she also found the herbs needed to treat her pus sores on her face, as well as some ordinary healing medicines. One could say that this trip was quite fruitful.

However, she didn't pick any bayberries or mushrooms, as she couldn't carry that much. She planned to ask second brother and third brother to go with her tomorrow to help pick and bring them back.

She picked four bunches of wild vegetables, which would save her a few coins on buying them tonight.

Humming an out-of-tune melody all the way down the mountain, she was approached by Auntie Hua from the village when she was near the crossroad close to home. “Wife of the Xiao Family, I finally found you. The villagers have been looking for you for half an hour, and we thought you ran away again. Hurry back, there's been a terrible accident at your home!”

Su Qingyue paused, “What happened to my family?”

Dashan was bitten by a poisonous snake and fainted on the mid-hillside. He was found by Zhou Fuquan and Li Gui from the village, who carried him back. Yuchuan came back from selling goods and was about to go to ask for Doctor Sun from the village, but before he even left the house, he also fainted. Yuchuan usually passes out easily, but why did he have to fall ill at this critical moment? Fuquan is going to ask Doctor Sun in place of Yuchuan, but unfortunately, Doctor Sun has gone to another village for consultation. Both Dashan and Yuchuan are lying in bed while the villagers are talking. Yuchuan is just suffering from his usual illness, but I'm afraid Dashan might not make it…” Upon hearing this, Su Qingyue ran home as fast as she could.

The Xiao family's yard was filled with people watching the commotion. Su

Qingyue squeezed through the crowd, shouting, “Make way.”

When the villagers saw her, they sighed, “The wife of the Xiao family still hasn't left, we all thought that when their family was in trouble, she would run away again!”

“Look at what she's carrying and what she's picking… what is that stuff?” someone asked, puzzled.

“Just a pile of grass, wild vegetables, and weeds. Wild vegetables are of course for eating. The Xiao family's house is so old, I wouldn't be surprised if she picked those wild grasses to use as thatch for the roof…”

“That little thatch wouldn't be of much use. I think it wouldn't even be enough to make a fence. Look at her; the Xiao family's brothers are so miserable, and she still has the leisure to pick wild grass…”

The villagers' gazes at Su Qingyue were quite dissatisfied.

Su Qingyue didn't care what the others were saying, she squeezed into the room through the crowd, threw the herbs and the basket on the floor, and looked at the two men lying side by side on the long bed.

Xiao Yuchuan was unconscious, but his breathing seemed to be steady. Xiao Yishan, however, looked like a corpse, his body covered in a purplish hue.

Wang Cuihua stood by helplessly, “Wife of the Xiao Family, you're finally here. Second Brother Xiao passed out, and we don't know if he will wake up. His name was on his lips before. My husband Fuquan has gone to find Doctor Sun, but Doctor Sun doesn't know which family in another village he is visiting, so it's difficult to find him…”

Su Qingyue sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to feel Xiao Yishan's pulse, which was extremely weak,
