Chapter 264 Mongolian sweat medicine

The meal delivered by Mr. Bai this afternoon was richer than that in the morning. Her mother-in-law ate a few more bites, but she didn't eat much, so she didn't say anything...?
Jiang Xiaoxiao touched her belly subconsciously. She was lying on the bed with a stomachache that made her unable to sleep. Could it be because there was something wrong with the food?

Without thinking much, she reached out and pushed Jiang Wei on the bed: "Mom, wake up..."

The person on the bed didn't move.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was a little anxious.

As expected, her mother-in-law had a problem with those meals, and she would never have been able to sleep like this.

"Mother... mother..." Jiang Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and called twice anxiously.

She didn't dare to make the sound too loud, it would be over if those men came back and heard her.

But my mother was lying on the bed, still not moving, sleeping soundly.

Jiang Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, climbed onto the bed in the dark, opened her mother's mouth, and poured the supernatural water in.

After a while, Jiang Wei's body moved.

There was too much water, Jiang Wei choked and coughed twice.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Mom, you finally woke up!"

Jiang Wei sat up from the bed, holding his painful forehead, and frowned: "What happened?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao quickly told the story about the problem with the food and the group outside the window.

Jiang Wei frowned tightly, waved his hand, and took out the unfinished food from the space.

She had checked the meals before eating them and only dared to eat them without any problems after finding no problems.

It seemed that there must be some drug in this meal that she couldn't detect.

She still underestimated people of this era.

"Mom, could these meals be given... sweat medicine?" Jiang Xiaoxiao guessed.

In the original text, Mongolian sweat medicine is a miracle medicine that has been tried and tested.

Although it is not highly poisonous, it can make people drowsy and has a strong ecstasy effect. Once people wake up, they will forget everything that happened in the middle.

Jiang Wei hesitated for two seconds and looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao with strange eyes: "How do you know about Mongolian sweat medicine?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "..."

Okay, I let it slip again.

"Haha..." She could only pull the corner of her mouth and laugh dryly, "Mom, you forgot, you read a book for me before, called Water Margin, and it mentioned the Mongolian sweat medicine..."

Jiang Wei nodded thoughtfully: "I see... have you finished reading that book?"

Seeing that he had escaped death, Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly and said, "Yeah, I usually have nothing to do when I'm free, so I just finished reading it."

What she said was true. There were very few books in this era, and the cultural heritage could not be compared with the world in her previous life. There were very few reading materials available.

She usually reads when she has nothing to do at home, and reads the book Jiang Wei took out from the space.

Jiang Wei nodded, but did not ask her about the sweat medicine again, but said sincerely: "You are still young, so this kind of book is not suitable for you. I will find some fairy tale books for you to pass the time next time."

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "...Okay."

The attention returned to the meal delivered by Mr. Bai again.

Jiang Wei dug around for a while, then took out a plastic box and put all the remaining food in it. He said, "I can't see the problem with the food for now. I'll find someone to look at it later. I need to figure it out now. Why did those guys drug us?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao was also confused. Those people wanted to drug the wealthy lady on the second floor because they were interested in her money. However, the mother and daughter did not show any signs of being rich or powerful. Why did they drug them?

She thought for a moment and asked, "Mom, are they trying to use us to test the medicine?"

Jiang Wei frowned and said nothing. She couldn't figure out the reason for this.

"Well, since we know that they are capable of poisoning the food, we can just avoid eating it... But if they dare to provoke me, I don't mind throwing them off the boat to feed the fish."

At the end of the words, Jiang Wei's eyes flashed with coldness.

After traveling through time for so long, this was the first time she had fallen into someone else's trap.

This incident also taught her a lesson, never underestimate people of this era.

They have their own methods and wisdom. Once you underestimate them, they may give you a fatal blow in this inconspicuous moment.

"Mother..." Jiang Xiaoxiao said cautiously, "Those people are going to drug the lady on the second floor. How about we..."

Jiang Wei glanced over.

Jiang Xiaoxiao immediately shut up.

She knew that her mother had always hated trouble, and would not cause trouble without permission. If she wanted her to help save the lady, I'm afraid...

She admitted that her idea was a bit holy, but she was still pregnant with the child. She would be a little uneasy if she knew that the other person was about to be in danger but did nothing.

Jiang Wei rubbed his forehead and said nothing.

After a long time, he finally said: "Let's talk about it later."

No matter what, she would not let the bandits go.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was very happy when she heard this. Her mother-in-law agreed to save people!

……

It was getting light.

The thin white skylight shone through the side of the ship onto the deck. People who had slept all night climbed up from the deck one after another, and immediately checked their luggage before they had time to stretch.

Finding that the baggage was intact and no one had touched it, he calmed down and started chatting with the people next to him about what to eat this morning...

Jiang Xiaoxiao clenched her chin, lying down and looking at the window, looking at the people chatting on the deck, observing everyone calmly.

She wanted to find the two people who conspired last night.

There should be more than two of them. In addition to the cook as an accomplice, there should be many accomplices in this group.

But Jiang Xiaoxiao observed it for most of the time and couldn't see any clues.

She wanted to judge by the voices of those people whether the two people from last night were hiding among them, but obviously not.

But think about it, the two people who had been lying in wait on the ship for a long time were probably not the civilians who had just boarded the ship.

They may have their own errands on the ship, and it will be difficult to find them...

Jiang Xiaoxiao wrinkled her face in distress. The merchant ship would arrive in Xuzhou in two days, and those people would definitely attack tonight. She had to find a way to remind the lady not to eat the food delivered on the ship today.

Just as I was thinking, there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Xiaoxiao opened the door and saw the little maid Yu'er beside the lady.

She subconsciously looked at the empty room behind Jiang Xiaoxiao, and said with an embarrassed face: "Xiaoxiao, my wife is seasick again... So what, where is your mother? I want to find her to show my wife one time."

After saying that, she seemed to be afraid that Jiang Xiaoxiao would refuse, so she immediately added: "Don't worry, I will definitely pay you the medical fee."

Seasick again...

Jiang Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. If she was seasick, wouldn't it mean that she couldn't eat anything?
The group of people put the medicine in the food, and as long as the lady didn't eat it, she wouldn't be affected.

"I'm sorry, my mother went to see Mr. Bai. I don't know when she will come back." Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled apologetically, "Besides, my mother also said before that the medicine for treating seasickness is not from my ancestors. The rumored secret medicine, this one, is gone."

The little maid Yu'er could only leave with a face full of disappointment.
