Chapter 79 They had never seen this injection technique before.

Jiang Yutang had been gone for almost the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, but he hadn't returned yet.

Jiang Shengan couldn't sit still any longer and said to his eldest son, "Take Mu Shi to the woods and look for her, just in case something happened to her."

Just as Mu handed the child in her arms to Zhu and was about to walk into the woods, she heard Jiang Yutang's shout coming from deep within the woods.

"Third Brother! Jiang Huaiyu! Come help me get these things!"

"It's my little sister's voice!" Jiang Huaiyu's eyes lit up, and she was the first to run towards the direction of the sound, with the others following closely behind.

When everyone ran into the woods, they saw Jiang Yutang struggling to carry several large bundles, her forehead covered in sweat, but she was smiling brightly.

She finally returned with the life-saving medicine.

Several people rushed to her side, their eyes darting back and forth between her and the bundle on the ground.

Curious about what was inside those bulging things, yet worried about where she had gone, he was at a loss as to which to consider first.

Seeing them frozen in place, Jiang Yutang quickly reminded them, "Don't just stand there, carefully move your things back first, and be careful not to let others see you."

Only then did everyone carefully pick up their bundles, bypass the area where the refugees were gathered, and quietly place them behind the cart to hide.

As soon as they settled their things, Jiang Songzhi couldn't wait to ask, "Little sister, which merchant sent these things?"

“Hmm.” Jiang Yutang nodded, paused for a moment, and then deliberately added, “However, there have been some problems with the merchants, so they won’t be able to send us supplies as frequently in the future. We’ll have to be careful on our own from now on.”

She had to lay the groundwork in advance to avoid suspicion arising from the inconsistency in the number of times she traveled through time later.

Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of understanding and sympathy.

Jiang Shengan's expression, eyes, and tone were respectful: "The other party is a benefactor of our Jiang family. He is currently entangled in many matters and unable to take care of himself. We can't help him much, but we wish him all the best."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Songzhi nodded, but his thoughts quickly returned to Madam Yun. He asked eagerly, "Among the things sent this time, is there any medicine that Mother can use?"

“Yes.” Jiang Yutang replied immediately with a serious expression, then turned around to make arrangements.

"Third brother, hurry up and boil some hot water. Eldest brother, second brother, help help Mother to the edge of the woods and find a place with branches to hang things. I need to give Mother her medicine."

The group immediately sprang into action.

The two brothers carefully helped Yun Shi up from the cart and slowly walked deeper into the woods.

Yun leaned against the tree trunk, sighed weakly, and barely had the strength to open her eyes.

Jiang Yutang quickly followed, taking out sodium bicarbonate injection solution, disinfectant, and disposable syringes from her bag.

She first carefully wiped Yun's hand with a sterile cotton swab, then expelled the air from the syringe, found the prominent vein on the back of her hand, and inserted the needle steadily.

The family members standing around were dumbfounded. At first, they thought she was going to do acupuncture like a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, but when they saw her push the liquid from the bottle into Yun's body, they all panicked.

Jiang Yuhuai couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Little sister, what... what are you doing?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

As Jiang Yutang administered the medicine, she gently comforted her, "This is a special medicine given by a merchant that can alleviate Mother's symptoms. How could I possibly harm Mother?"

Unable to explain modern medicine, she could only vaguely refer to it as a "miracle drug."

"But... this is the first time we've ever seen something injected into a person's body. Even back in the palace, we've never seen any imperial physician with such miraculous skills."

Jiang Shengan held his trembling hand to his chest, wanting to check but afraid of delaying things.

“Father, instead of worrying, we should wait and see how Mother is doing before making a decision.” Jiang Yutang’s tone was firm, as if he was absolutely certain about the matter.

Although her family still had doubts, seeing her serious expression, they suppressed their worries and quietly stayed by her side.

After securing the syringe with tape, Jiang Yutang prepared a bowl of milk and oatmeal and carefully fed it to Yun Shi.

Instant oatmeal is nutritious and easy to digest, which is just right to replenish Yun's strength when he was weak.

Yun smacked her lips and gave a forced smile: "At least there's some taste in my mouth now."

Jiang Yutang smiled slightly at her, then took out antibiotic tablets, crushed them, mixed them with warm water, and fed them to Yun Shi little by little.

Throughout the entire process, Jiang Yutang stayed by Yun Shi's side, asking softly every now and then, "Mother, are you feeling unwell anywhere? Like dizziness or a stomachache?"

Yun slowly shook her head, her voice weak: "No... it's just that the back of my hand where I got the injection is a little cold."

Jiang Yutang immediately reached out and gently covered Yun's hand with his own body heat to warm it.

This reminded her of her grandfather in the hospital ward, and she thought that when she went back to visit him next time, she would also warm his hands.

It must be said that the effects of modern medical technology are indeed immediate.

After a series of treatments, Madam Yun finally stopped her painful murmurs, her tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, her breathing became steady, and she gradually fell asleep.

The family members finally breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed that the so-called injection really worked.

Jiang Yutang took out the remaining oatmeal from her bundle, distributed it to everyone, and told them how to prepare it.

Everyone followed her example and soon they had a bowl of fragrant milk oatmeal.

Jiang Shengan took a sip of warm oatmeal porridge and said with emotion, "That merchant was a real lifesaver. If I ever have the chance to see him again, I will definitely thank him in person."

Jiang Yutang silently took a sip of oatmeal, a faint smile on her face, without replying.

Not far away, Cheng Lanzhou caught a glimpse of her expression out of the corner of his eye, but his gaze returned to the oatmeal porridge in his own bowl, and his doubts grew stronger.

He had clearly seen Jiang Yutang go to the woods alone, but he did not follow her because of the difference between men and women. Little did he know that it was this concern that made him miss the opportunity to find out the "mysterious person's" background.

She's becoming more and more unpredictable.

After everyone had finished eating, Cheng Lanzhou offered, "I'll wash the dishes today. You must be tired from taking care of Auntie."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yutang subconsciously thought of the soap in her bag. Using soap to wash dishes is both clean and convenient. However, remembering Cheng Daier's earlier mockery of her, she was still angry and suppressed the urge to take the soap.

It wasn't until late at night, when Zhu was about to relieve herself, that she took out a bar of soap from her bundle. In front of everyone, she poured water from the bamboo tube onto her hands and the soap, lathering it up while teaching everyone how to use it.

"This thing is called soap. It can clean your hands very well and also remove odors."

Curious, Ms. Mu tried it out, and after washing her hands, she brought them to her nose and smelled them. She exclaimed in surprise, "It's really amazing! It's much better than soap!"

Seeing this, Cheng Daier raised an eyebrow in displeasure.

She didn't mention it when Cheng Lanzhou went to wash the dishes, but now she's bringing it up like it's a treasure.

But then she thought that the soap belonged to the Jiang family, and it was none of her business who they wanted to use it for. She also felt that Jiang Yutang was stingy, hiding even a hand sanitizer. Her expression darkened.

Cheng Lanzhou, however, paid no attention to any of that. What he cared more about was the "mysterious merchant," who not only appeared and disappeared without a trace, but also brought things that were truly unprecedented and could be described as rare, making him all the more intriguing.
