Chapter 2074: Tell Everything You Know

Mrs. Song saw that Song Yi had asked the princess for help, so she generously extended her hand.

Gu Xin felt Mrs. Song's pulse. It was fine at first, but the longer she felt, the more she frowned, which made Mrs. Song and Song Yi very worried.

When Gu Xin had felt both of her hands, Song Yi asked anxiously, "Princess, the illness of the student's wife..."

Gu Xin glanced at him and said, "Mr. Song, can you show me the prescription that Mrs. Song usually takes?"

Song Yi did not doubt him and went to find the prescription.

Gu Xin looked at the prescription and pointed out that the dosage of two of the medicines was too high, which made Mrs. Song, who was already weak, even weaker. When she heard that a female corpse was found next door, Mrs. Song was worried and frightened, and she fainted because of anger.

It can be seen that this prescription was not prescribed recently, but has been around for some time.

Song Yi told Gu Xin that this was the prescription prescribed by the doctor before the New Year. Mrs. Song felt much better after the New Year, so she continued to take it to nourish herself.

Mrs. Song was weak to begin with, so neither mother nor son was surprised by Mrs. Song's weakness.

Gu Xin asked Song Yi to bring paper and pen. She wrote a new prescription and asked Song Yi to go to the pharmacy to get the medicine tomorrow. To be on the safe side, it would be best to ask the doctor who had treated Mrs. Song before to come and see her again.

Doctors usually prescribe two or three doses of medicine. After taking it, you go to the doctor to check your pulse. The doctor will add or reduce the amount according to the pulse after taking the medicine. It is not necessary to take the same medicine throughout the whole illness.

Song Yi was very upset. Why didn't he care more about his mother? Even if his mother said that she was better and nothing happened, she should have asked the doctor to come and see her instead of taking the previous medicine.

Gu Xin knew that some scholars really only cared about the books of saints and didn't care much about the trivialities of life.

"Yier, go and serve tea to Princess Xinxin and tidy up the bedside." Mrs. Song was relieved when she heard Gu Xin's diagnosis. Only then did she realize that the broken medicine bowl was still on the ground. The princess came to her house, and she couldn't even give her a sip of water. The next door had been checking for a whole afternoon, and the princess might not have time to drink water.

Song Yi went to boil water, then came with a broom to clean up the debris.

"Your Highness, ask! I will tell you everything I know." Mrs. Song said.

"Okay. Mrs. Song, do you remember what you were doing on the seventh day of the first lunar month?" Gu Xin asked.

"The seventh day of the first lunar month." Mrs. Song thought for a while and said, "I remember that I didn't go out on the seventh day of the first lunar month, and I was doing some embroidery at home. The sixth day of the first lunar month was Yi'er's birthday, and I went out to buy vegetables. When I was having dinner with Yi'er in the evening, he mentioned that the daughter of the Ye family had caught a cold, and the doctor said that she was not feeling well. On the seventh day of the first lunar month, he came back and said that the daughter of the Ye family had woken up. I was doing embroidery at the time. I also took eggs to visit Xiaoru. Then I went home."

"Didn't you hear any noise from next door that day? When did you go to the Ye family to visit Miss Ye?" Gu Xin asked.

"Nothing happened. The tenants of the yard next door moved out before the New Year. In the first month of the year, a real estate agent brought tenants to see the house, but none of them were satisfied. In February, no tenants came, so I kept the house locked. It was only on the tenth that a tenant came again. The first time that family came was on the tenth, and the second time was yesterday. It was only yesterday that the house was booked." Mrs. Song coughed a few more times before saying, "I had dinner on the seventh day of the New Year. I went to visit Xiaoru at about 4 p.m. I went there to sit for a while and then came back. I talked to Yier for a while and then went to bed."
