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

Chapter 492 The Frog Laughs Half a Step Mad?
The carpenter wasn't stupid. Did he think a doctor who was willing to treat others without receiving any payment just wanted to indulge in the thrill of being a doctor? Of course not.

She must have a certain level of medical ethics to be willing to treat people.

Since it's free, why not ask her to come and try it? That's what the little carpenter thought.

"Please rest assured, I will take full responsibility for your wife's illness."

As soon as Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she heard a burst of mocking laughter coming from the witch's side.

What did you mean by laughing like that just now?

Su Xiaoxiao came over and asked abruptly.

"I don't mean anything, my nose just feels uncomfortable, what's wrong? Why are you so concerned about me?"

Su Xiaoxiao really couldn't be bothered with such a childish person. Anyway, she always felt that this witch seemed to have come to deliberately cause trouble for her, which made her feel uncomfortable.

But just to prove her point, Su Xiaoxiao decided, "This time I'm really going to have a real competition with you and see what you have to say."

In fact, Su Xiaoxiao was too lazy to argue with these witches and other evil cultists. Even if you won the contest, you wouldn't get any benefits at all.

Even if you win, it's not a very honorable victory.

Seeing the witch laughing at her with her mouth wide open, Su Xiaoxiao felt a little angry.

Li Ji suddenly remembered that he had a pill on him that could shut people up. (Smiling Half-Step Madness!)

Ignoring everything else, Su Xiaoxiao took out a small red pill from her first-aid kit. The pill was only about the size of a small cherry.

While the witch opposite her was spouting nonsense at her, Su Xiaoxiao threw the pill into her mouth.

The witch swallowed the red pill before realizing something was wrong.

"What, what did you just feed me?"

Su Xiaoxiao explained with a smile, "The pill I just fed you is called 'Smiling Half-Step Madness'."

What does "a half-step madman with a smile" mean?

Su Xiaoxiao was starting to laugh at her. "Let me explain. You can't run, you can't jump, and you can't laugh. If you do, you'll immediately bleed from all seven orifices and then explode and die."

"what?"

The witch had never heard of such a poison in the world.

"Fine, Su Xiaoxiao, you actually fed me poison? You've really had enough of living."

As she spoke, she prepared to grab Su Xiaoxiao with her hand. Su Xiaoxiao did not dodge at all, but gestured with her hand, "Be careful, if you move, you will explode and die. You'd better think about the consequences."

The witch was so angry that she didn't dare to move and just stood there, stunned, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that the person was quite obedient, Su Xiaoxiao felt relieved.

Su Xiaoxiao disliked having someone interfering while she was treating patients. This method was perfect for keeping a close eye on that witch and preventing her from getting distracted.

Su Xiaoxiao focused on treating the illness, taking out a silver needle from her medicine box and inserting it directly into the carpenter's wife's head. Her movements were somewhat rough, making the young carpenter, who was watching, tremble with fear. "This..."

He originally wanted to come over and stop them, but because of Qian Musheng standing there, he didn't dare to come over.

Perhaps because of this, after the needle was inserted, the carpenter's wife showed a very painful expression on her face, which made the carpenter feel very sorry for her.

"Dr. Su, please look! Is my wife hurt by your needle? She looks so pained."

Su Xiaoxiao gestured to the carpenter as if to say "Don't bother me," and said, "Let me tell you, this doesn't mean she's in pain. It actually means that her body can now fully tolerate my acupuncture."

Qian Musheng patted the carpenter on the shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry, Doctor Su's specialty is acupuncture. She's cured people's illnesses using that before. You can rest assured!"

The young carpenter, seeing that even young master Qian Musheng had spoken so eloquently, what could he say? It was just like the saying Su Xiaoxiao often repeated: "Use people without suspicion, and don't use those you suspect."

That's the point. If you don't believe what others say, why are you seeking their treatment?
However, seeing the lady lying on the bed, who had been twisting and turning unwillingly ever since Su Xiaoxiao had inserted the needle, was quite distressed.

Even with his eyes closed, he showed no signs of waking up after quite some time.

Su Xiaoxiao, however, was sitting leisurely by the bed, drinking tea. She would occasionally come over to check on the lady's condition and continue to insert the other silver needles into the lady's head one by one.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Xiaoxiao finally finished the tea in her cup and said to herself, "Alright, all done!"

The young carpenter was actually still worried. He watched from the sidelines, his face pale, wanting to go up and say something, but he didn't dare to.

He was afraid that he might say something wrong and delay Su Xiaoxiao's treatment.

However, someone like him actually has no say, since he doesn't even know what acupuncture is or how it treats people's illnesses.

The witch stood to the side, her face as pale as the carpenter's. She was afraid that if she moved, the poison would take effect and she would explode and die, so she dared not move either.

Su Xiaoxiao leisurely finished her tea, and only after removing the silver needles from the lady's head did she put down her teacup.

Everyone saw that the lady suddenly opened her eyes. Although her eyes were open, her facial expression was very stiff. Her eyes were wide open like dead fish eyes, staring at the ceiling, without saying a word.

Unexpectedly, the carpenter's wife, who had been in a daze for several days and nights, woke up today, after being pricked with needles by Su Xiaoxiao.

It was so amazing that no one present had expected it.

The young carpenter tentatively approached his wife and called out to her a few times.

"Madam, Madam, are you awake? Please speak quickly!"

The carpenter hadn't seen his wife face him with such clear eyes in a long time.

Although the carpenter called out to the lady lying on the bed for a long time, she did not seem to be waking up at all.

Her eyes were indeed open, but she remained silent and motionless, staring at the ceiling with a blank expression.

The young carpenter panicked even more when he saw this. What was going on?!

"That Dr. Su, look, my wife has opened her eyes, but why is she still not responding when I call her!"
