I transmigrated to the 1970s and became the female lead's vicious stepsister.

The political commissar's wife entered the courtyard looking flustered.

Su Lingwu didn't refuse, and took her bag, which contained silver needles and some medicine.

Fu Linchuan, Xu Meili, and Zhao Guoyao naturally followed.

Everyone wanted to go and see what had happened.

Li family.

"Oh my god, what's going on? Who the hell is trying to harm our family?!"

Before even entering the courtyard, we heard Old Mrs. Li's wailing.

"Aunt Li, this is a residential compound. Who would harm your family? Did you accidentally eat something?"

"Yes, otherwise how could four out of five members of a family have fallen ill?"

"The political commissar's wife went to see Dr. Su, but I don't know if it will be effective?"

"There's no other way but to let her try. It's good enough that we can find a doctor at this hour."

"Everyone, make way!" The political commissar's wife led Su Lingwu in.

"Hey Xiao Yu, why did you choose her instead of a reliable doctor? Can't you see how much pain my son and grandson are in? If she makes things worse, can she take responsibility?"

When Old Mrs. Li saw that Yu Chunhua had brought Su Lingwu, her slanted eyes were full of disdain.

"Aunt Li, you should be grateful. Little Su was eating at home when I dragged her here to save your son and grandson, and you still talk like that."

Yu Chunhua was also furious; her legs were numb from all the struggling, and in the end, she still couldn't get it right.

Now, even if we send them to the hospital, it's difficult to find a doctor; they've all gone to eat and rest.

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Adults can bear it, but children can't, and they cry loudly in pain.

The two children were curled up on the ground, and Battalion Commander Li and his wife were not much better off, sitting on the ground weak and in pain.

"Mommy, Mommy..."

"Oh dear, my precious grandson, you've suffered terribly! Who was the heartless one who harmed our family?!"

Grandma Li was holding her grandson and cursing.

Battalion Commander Li's head was throbbing from the noise. He looked at Su Lingwu and said, "Sister-in-law, please...please don't take it to heart with my mother. Please...take a look at our pain, it's really too much."

Even though Battalion Commander Li was a tall man of 1.78 meters, he was in so much pain that he was sweating profusely, vomiting, and his face was pale.

Su Lingwu looked around first, then noticed the food on the table. "You were eating just now, weren't you?"

"There's something wrong with this rice. Who cooked it?"

"fart!"

"That's good rice, what...what's wrong with it!"

When Li Lao heard Su Lingwu's words, he panicked. Could it really be a problem with the rice?

While cooking today, she discovered a hole in the rice container, water had gotten into the bottom, and some of the rice at the bottom had changed color.

The old lady thought it wasn't a big problem, so she washed it, put it in a pot, cooked it, and ate it.

She couldn't bear to eat it; rice is so precious, and she didn't touch a single bite, even though it was meant for her family.

"mother!"

"Was it you?"

Battalion Commander Li never expected that the person who caused all four members of the family to be poisoned was actually her mother.

"How could that be? Son, don't let her talk nonsense. What does she know? I washed that rice carefully, until it was spotless. How could there be a problem?"

In the old lady's mind, it's just dirty and can be washed off.

That precious grain couldn't just be thrown away; it was all bought with money and ration coupons.

Su Lingwu twitched the corners of her mouth and shook her head repeatedly. "Did the rice get moldy from improper storage? Wash it and then cook it."

"Grandma, moldy rice is inedible. It contains aflatoxin, which can't be washed off completely, and high temperatures won't kill it. If you want your son and his family to die, then keep cooking it for them. Don't come looking for me next time; I won't help you!"

Su Lingwu took out an antidote pill, broke it into four pieces—two large and two small—and fed them to Commander Li and his family of four.

After being rebuked by Su Lingwu, Old Mrs. Li felt she had been scolded and lost face by a little girl. She muttered, "Hmph, so stingy, breaking a pill into four pieces, how frugal."

Su Lingwu smiled and looked at Old Madam Li, "Do you know how much each of these pills costs? Are you sure you want to give each of them one?"

"It's just a few tattered blades of grass, you can find them everywhere on the mountain, how much could they be worth!"

"It was the last time, wasn't it? The children were poisoned, and you shared one pill with so many people. You're usually so extravagant, but now you're being so stingy!"

Grandma Li was referring to the time when the children mistakenly ate undercooked black noodles, thinking it was because they had eaten Su Lingwu's cold noodles.

Gao Yufen and Fang Hongying were also in the crowd. They remembered that when their child was poisoned last time, Su Lingwu did indeed break a pill to take it, but they were too embarrassed to say that she was stingy.

They'll definitely save people; it's already good enough that they haven't spent any money.

"I'm a spendthrift?"

"That's nothing compared to how reckless you are, old lady! My spending habits are just a little wasteful, but yours are outrageous!"

"You almost sent your son and his family of four away, and you have the nerve to call me stingy?"

"I'll tell you today, this antidote pill of mine was developed by myself. It contains many precious Chinese medicinal herbs. The cost of just one pill is ten yuan, and four pills would cost forty yuan. You think I'm stingy!"

"You're so generous, just give me the ten yuan for the medicine. That's just for the herbs; it doesn't even include my time or the consultation fee!"

Su Lingwu didn't really want to argue with them about the cost of the medicine, but she had to let everyone know that her things weren't free, and that she would give them to anyone who asked her for them in the future.

She wasn't lying; the medicinal herbs she used were all top-quality herbs from her space, the kind that are hard to find outside, so the resulting medicine was naturally different.

She prepared these antidote pills for Fu Linchuan and his family, also in case they ate something wrong.

Especially for Fu Linchuan, it's always good to have this pill on hand when he goes on missions.

"Ten yuan!"

"You're robbing me!"

When Grandma Li heard that the pills cost ten yuan, she jumped up in shock. Ten yuan and up? That would kill her!

How much does a pound of rice cost?

Ten yuan can buy nearly seventy kilograms of rice.

The old lady was in this state because she couldn't bear to part with that half a pound of rice. Now that you've told her that the cost of medicine is equivalent to seventy pounds of rice, she's completely devastated.

"Good heavens, what kind of world is this? This is highway robbery!"

When everyone heard Su Lingwu say that the antidote actually cost ten yuan, their expressions changed.

Good heavens, this is the first time I've ever heard of such an expensive medicine.

Actually, expensive medicines have always been available; it's just that ordinary people don't have access to them.

But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

The medicine in Su Lingwu's hand was not cheap.

"mother!"

"Stop embarrassing yourself, okay?!"

"Sister-in-law, thank you for saving our lives. We'll pay for the medicine. You saved our whole family."

Battalion Commander Li hadn't expected the medicine to be so expensive, but no matter how expensive it was, nothing was more important than his family's lives, especially his two children. After taking the medicine, they were noticeably better, which meant the medicine was very effective; no wonder it was so expensive.

If a family of four goes to the hospital and goes through all that trouble, including hospitalization and IV drips, it will cost a lot of money.

"Forget it, I don't want to take the money and then get reported by your old lady. I'm giving you this medicine because you and Lin Chuan are comrades-in-arms."

Su Lingwu didn't want to give anyone a handle to use against her.

There will be no financial transactions with the people in the family compound. It wouldn't be worth it if it affected Fu Linchuan.

You can't see into someone's heart.

"However, I still suggest that your family go for a check-up this afternoon to see how much damage your internal organs are doing. My medicine can temporarily save your liver, but I don't know the extent of your poisoning, so it will be better to have a check-up to put your mind at ease."

Su Lingwu left after she finished speaking.

"Commander Fu's wife is quite nice."
