After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 471 Su Xiaoxiao is hailed as a "miracle doctor"

Before the two even returned to Qian Musheng's residence, they received another large order.

It was in a small village called Wangshui Village, fifty kilometers away from Chang'an City. It was said that an old hunter who went hunting in the mountains had accidentally eaten a poisonous plant called "heartbreak grass" and was now in critical condition. He wanted Su Xiaoxiao to come and save him as soon as possible.

Su Xiaoxiao was shocked. What should she do? The situation was urgent. Regardless of whether they knew each other or not, it was a life at stake.

Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng quickly prepared their horses and rushed towards Wangshui Village together.

As soon as they arrived at the village entrance, they saw a group of people seemingly fighting.

When Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng rushed over, they learned that it was the old hunter's son who was getting into a conflict with someone.

The reason was that the old hunter accidentally ate the poisonous plant while searching for medicinal herbs for the owner of the pharmacy, and ended up getting poisoned.

The old hunter's son believed that the responsibility lay largely with the pharmacy owner, since he hadn't made the matter clear and hadn't informed the old hunter that the herb was poisonous.

“Your father brought this upon himself; I didn’t make him eat that poisonous herb.”

The boss looked cold-blooded and showed no sympathy. Then he saw the old hunter lying on the ground, his jaw clenched and unconscious.

Su Xiaoxiao realized that things couldn't be delayed any longer.

She walked over, grabbed the old hunter by the neck, examined him closely, and then asked the pharmacy owner where his shop was.

The shopkeeper pointed to a small pharmacy across the street.

Without hesitation, Su Xiaoxiao rushed into the shop counter, grabbed a few herbs, threw them into a small box and began to crush them. She then put the crushed herbs back into a cloth bag and sealed it.

All these movements were fluid and effortless. Finally, Su Xiaoxiao threw the cloth bag containing the medicinal herbs into a pot on a stove to the side.

Many people around were watching the spectacle, wondering why someone would have to go to the doctor like this.

Everyone was afraid that Su Xiaoxiao was a quack doctor, and that if things continued to drag on like this, the old hunter might lose his life.

The old hunter's son was also a very impatient person. He rushed up to Su Xiaoxiao and shouted at her, "Hey, are you sure you can do it? If not, I'm taking my dad to another doctor."

Regardless of the circumstances, Su Xiaoxiao is just a woman, so it's understandable that she's not trusted.

However, Su Xiaoxiao turned to look at the young man and simply smiled.

"I'm sorry, I'm being blunt. If you really want to find someone else to treat your father, I won't stop you. But let me make this clear: even if you go to the palace now and find the imperial physician for your father, it probably won't save his life. If you really want to try, then go ahead, I won't stop you."

Everyone around watched to see what decision the young man would make. He pleaded with Su Xiaoxiao for a long time, but ultimately swallowed his words. He was still quite worried about his father's condition, so he looked at the old man on the ground and said, "Then hurry up and treat my father! What are you waiting for here?"

Su Xiaoxiao remained seated there leisurely, seemingly in no hurry at all.

The onlookers pointed and whispered, "This girl is really something. She doesn't seem worried or flustered at all. This is a life at stake!"

"Yes, it seemed to me like she was just joking around, thinking that putting those herbs on the brazier to roast would be enough?"

"We think we should hurry up and get a proper doctor. Don't listen to this charlatan." Su Xiaoxiao listened from the side and found it amusing. She was no longer a miracle doctor but a charlatan. Where could she go to reason with him?

Despite this, Su Xiaoxiao remained unmoved.

She remained unfazed by everyone's distrust.

Su Xiaoxiao kept glancing at the pot on the brazier as time passed by.

Finally, everyone saw Su Xiaoxiao stand up from her seat and shout loudly, "Okay, time's up."

Those around Su Xiaoxiao didn't understand what was wrong with her and were almost frightened.

All we saw was Su Xiaoxiao fish the cloth bag out of the pot, then quickly run to the old hunter who had fallen to the ground, lift up his clothes, and place the cloth bag on his stomach.

Those around Su Xiaoxiao were also greatly surprised to see what she was doing. What kind of medical skill was this? They had never seen it before.

This matter remains quite mysterious to Su Xiaoxiao, and even Qian Musheng, who was standing next to her, found it rather strange.

The onlookers were naturally astonished, and some began to mock Su Xiaoxiao.

"This woman is really shameless, directly lifting the old hunter's clothes and making direct contact. Doesn't she know that men and women should not touch each other? Su Xiaoxiao is a modern person, and seeing a doctor is nothing. In front of a doctor, everything is just formalities."

And what's there to be shy about in front of a doctor?
Su Xiaoxiao placed the cloth bag on the old hunter's stomach, and soon everyone was stunned to see that the old hunter had opened his eyes with a bewildered expression.

His eyes went from cloudy to clear, and he regained consciousness.

"What's wrong with me?"

Seeing that the old man was alright, Su Xiaoxiao stood up easily, dusted off her hands, and said to the old man, "You must have eaten the poisonous herb, which is why you were convulsing and foaming at the mouth. But you're fine now; I've cleared the toxins from your body."

Upon hearing this, the old hunter thought about it carefully again, and finally remembered.

He quickly got up, knelt down in front of Su Xiaoxiao, and kowtowed to her, "My benefactor, if it weren't for your help, I would probably be dead by now."

His son realized that he had indeed wronged Su Xiaoxiao.

He quickly knelt down beside his father and kowtowed to Su Xiaoxiao. "I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have questioned you, Doctor Su, and even called you a charlatan. We were wrong."

Everyone admired Su Xiaoxiao immensely, and even those who had been attacking her earlier bowed their heads and came over to apologize.

In fact, Su Xiaoxiao saved the old hunter's life, and these people had no choice but to accept it.

"As expected of Doctor Su, he's truly amazing!"

Why does that voice sound so familiar? Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng turned around at the same time and saw that it was Liu Mang.

Dressed in white, he looked as ethereal and handsome as a fairy descending from heaven, and approached Su Xiaoxiao with deep affection.
