The system asked me to chase his wife

Xiang Xiukai explained awkwardly: "Products that are beyond the current technology are very expensive, please understand the host."

Xia Mang said angrily: "This medicine can cure your grandmother's illness, why can't you be flexible?"

It’s not that she has to bargain, but the main reason is that she now has less than 10,000 points in total. How many antihypertensive pills are enough to buy?

When Xiang Xiukai heard that Xia Mang had a plan, he immediately became alert: "I will file a complaint with the host right away!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Mang decided to wait for Xiang Xiukai to give the results before buying medicine.

At this time, Doctor Zhang and Doctor Wang came out together, and the conclusion given by Doctor Zhang was exactly the same as that of Doctor Wang.

The lady had a stroke, and the blood clot in her brain might have been caused by the collision. The elderly have thin blood vessels, and they can easily rupture if disturbed by external force.

"The reason why the Madam is not conscious is because of the blood clot in her head. I have discussed with this doctor and prescribed a prescription. I also gave the Madam an acupuncture injection. As for her condition, we need to observe for a while."

Doctor Zhang was very careful with his words, trying not to say anything bad. Upon hearing this, Qiao Yuandong did not force the two doctors, but just ordered people to boil the medicine.

Ji Tong also gave Doctor Zhang a large red envelope, and the servants respectfully escorted the two doctors out the door.

Only then did Qiao Yuandong go into the inner room to see the lady.

Xia Mang followed her in and took a look. She saw the lady lying quietly on the bed with her eyes closed. She didn't know if it was because she was feeling unwell, but her brows were knitted together.

Compared to when I first met the lady, she now looked much older. Her hair was as white as snow, her face was deeply wrinkled, and there was no trace of blood between her skin.

If it weren't for the faintly visible rise and fall of her chest, Xia Mang would almost have thought that the lady had died.

Perhaps Qiao Yuandong had the same idea as her. The moment he saw the lady, Qiao Yuandong grabbed Xia Mang's hand tightly to prevent himself from falling to the ground.

Xiang Xiu'an ran to the bedside of the lady and wanted to reach out to hold her hand, but he didn't dare to touch her.

He cried softly, "Grandma."

The old woman on the couch did not respond at all. Qiao Yuandong walked over, tucked the quilt for the lady, and listened silently to Xiang Xiu'an's crying.

"Grandmother, I hope you live a long life. Our Duke's Mansion cannot live without you."

Xiang Xiu'an has not yet inherited the title, and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion has no adult man to support the family. Even the remaining influence of the Duke's Mansion in the past can no longer protect the declining Duke's Mansion.

Putting aside the aristocratic families who were secretly lurking in the capital, just the several branches of the Xiang family alone, there was no day that they did not dream of taking the title of Duke.

If it weren't for the support from the Madam's maiden family Pang and Qiao Yuandong's maiden family Qiao, those evil spirits would never have given the Duke's Mansion a single day of peace.

If the lady passes away, how much affection will Pang Shi still have for Xiang Shi?

The interests of aristocratic families always come before bloodlines. Xiang Xiu'an has no title, no position, and no merit at this time. Whether it is worth Pang's investment or not, I am afraid only Pang himself knows.

Qiao Yuandong lowered his eyes and looked at the sleeping lady, listening to Xiang Xiu'an's crying, and bitterness spread in his heart.

The maid boiled the medicine and brought it over. Qiao Yuandong fed her the medicine himself. The unconscious lady was unconscious and even needed Ji Tong to pry her mouth open.

Qiao Yuandong was afraid that the lady would choke, so he could only feed the medicine little by little with a small spoon.

After taking the medicine, Qiao Yuandong and Xiang Xiu'an didn't dare to leave for a moment.

In the middle of the night, a maid came to suck out the old lady's phlegm. When Qiao Yuandong saw that the old lady's breathing had become much more stable, he closed his eyes slightly.

The uncle and his sister-in-law stayed by his bedside until dawn, and Qiao Yuandong asked Xiang Xiu'an to return to the Imperial College to study.

Xiang Xiu'an shook his head and said, "My grandmother is in this state now, how can I leave? I have already asked for leave from the Imperial College, so it won't be a problem."

What he said made sense. Qiao Yuandong knew that even if Xiang Xiu'an was forced to return to the Imperial College, he would not be able to concentrate on reading, so he said nothing more.

Seeing that the lady was still in a coma, Qiao Yuandong decided to ask the director of the Imperial Hospital to come and take a look in person.

The director of the hospital was on duty at the Imperial Hospital at the time, and if they wanted to invite him to see a patient, they would need a written order from the Empress or His Majesty. After making the decision, Qiao Yuandong went back to change his clothes and prepare to enter the palace.

Xia Mang stayed with her in the main house all night and was completely sleepy.

Seeing that she could fall asleep even when standing, Qiao Yuandong said helplessly, "Go to sleep first."

Then he looked at Rong Zhu who also looked sleepy and ordered: "You don't have to follow me out. Let He Lan and He Huan take charge today."

Rongzhu and Xia Mang agreed and went down. Now that the lady was ill in bed, she needed someone to take care of her. It would be best if everyone took turns.

Xia Mang squinted his eyes and groped his way into his room. He fell onto the kang, not even bothering to wash his face.

As soon as he closed his eyes, there was a dinging sound in his head, forcibly pulling Xia Mang out of his deep sleep.

She slowly got up from the bed bonelessly, rubbing her eyelids hard with both hands to stay awake.

"Mr. Xiang, if you can't come up with something big today, I will definitely remember this vengeance for disturbing your sweet dreams!"

Xiang Xiukai ignored Xia Mang's dissatisfaction and said happily: "It's done, the main system agrees to lower the price. All the products in the mall interface will be halved!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Mang suddenly no longer felt sleepy.

50% off?
What kind of conscientious businessman is this?
She opened the mall interface with some disbelief, and found that it was just as Xiang Xiukai said, all the goods were half price!
"The main system is so easy to talk to?!" Xia Mang was quite surprised, and then complained: "Why didn't you do this earlier? I wasted so much money!"

In fact, up to now, Xia Mang has only spent more than 300 points, and the rest have all been saved.

But she still felt bad when she thought about it, every extra penny was still extra money!
In response to Xia Mang's complaint, Xiang Xiukai told the truth: "Do you think this is easy to handle? In order to convince the main system to reduce the price, I offered to reduce the local permissions in exchange!"

Xia Mang was speechless for a moment. The price reduction in the mall would benefit her greatly, but for Xiang Xiukai, it was a big sacrifice.

After a while, she said shyly, "In fact, you can just ask your main system to reduce the price of antihypertensive drugs."

Xiang Xiukai said unhappily: "Do you think I don't want to? But the main system said that changing a single price will easily cause information disorder and will not accept the application."

"Oh, that's what happened." Xia Mang said he understood, and then asked, "So what permissions did you reduce?"

She saw that there was no change in this guy's behavior and words.

As soon as these words came out, Xia Mang heard Xiang Xiukai let out a long sigh.

"Alas, I don't expect to grow old with Dong Niang anymore, and it's impossible for me to go back to the battlefield and kill the enemy."

Xia Mang was originally quite sad, but after hearing what Xiang Xiukai said, she almost laughed out loud. "I think the main system is too lenient towards you!"

Xiang Xiukai: '.Stop talking nonsense and buy medicine!'

Humans cannot even communicate their joys and sorrows, let alone humans and machines?
There was no need for him to tell her this!
Xia Mang was too lazy to talk to Xiang Xiukai, so he directly opened the mall and searched for antihypertensive drugs. A whole page of antihypertensive drugs popped up in the mall, with more than ten or twenty types.

Some will be produced in the next thirty centuries, but there will be none in the future. According to the mall, in the future, the genetic reform of human society will permanently solve the problem of high blood pressure.

Some were produced in other galaxies. Xia Mang was shocked when he saw that aliens were also taking antihypertensive drugs.

After choosing for a long time among the various medicines provided by the system mall, Xia Mang decided to use the antihypertensive drugs from human society.

Although the food the aliens eat seems to be of high technological level, she is not sure whether it is suitable for the human physique.

It’s so explosive, with such a magical system, you can even buy blood pressure-lowering drugs from outer space in ancient times!

With mixed feelings, Xia Mang bought the antihypertensive medicine from the 30th Century.

This is the most expensive antihypertensive drug used by humans. Even at a 50% discount, it still sells for 1,000 points per pill.

Fortunately, the effect of this pill can last for a week and has no side effects, so it is relatively cost-effective.

Xia Mang clicked to buy without hesitation!
With a pleasant ding-dong sound, an oval pill with a light blue color lay in the hand.

At the same time, Xia Mang discovered that the system mall also made intelligent recommendations based on her choices.

'Ding, according to the algorithm, the customer may also need the following medicines to be used together, please choose by yourself.'

Xia Mang clicked on the recommendation page and took a look. The first item in the list was a special medicine for treating cerebral infarction.

This seems to be a perfect remedy for stroke?

Xia Mang thought about it and chose the best one to buy, also spending 1,000 points.

The mall then made intelligent recommendations.

'Ding, according to the algorithm, the customer may also need the following health products to be used together, please choose by yourself.'

Xia Mang: '.'

Click on the new recommendation page, and you will see a series of cardiovascular health products, as well as calcium tablets for the elderly.

After looking around, Xia Mang closed the system mall speechlessly.

She seriously suspected that there might be a manual customer service behind this mall?

This taste is just right!
After buying the medicine, Xia Mang was thinking about how to get the old lady to take it.

She remembered that last time Rongzhu had diarrhea, she kindly gave her anti-diarrhea medicine, but was still suspected of poisoning her.

The old lady had suffered a stroke and even the imperial physician had issued a notice of critical illness. How credible was it for her, an unknown little maid, to claim that she could cure the old lady with two pills?
Besides, Xia Mang is not a professional doctor. In modern society, the act of prescribing medicine for others privately would result in a silver bracelet as punishment!

In other words, even she herself could not guarantee whether she could really cure the lady.

Then she can't do this matter herself.

After thinking for a while, Xia Mang decided to find Xiang Xiu'an for help.

Besides, he was the only one who could be close to the lady at any time, so it was the most appropriate choice for Xia Mang to ask him to feed the lady medicine.

Xiang Xiu'an had been guarding the main house since the accident with the lady. Ji Tong and others came in to persuade him to go and have a rest, but he was stubborn and refused to leave.

When Xia Mang found the main house, he saw Xiang Xiu'an drinking a bowl of hot chicken soup.

When Xiang Xiukai first saw Xia Mang standing at the door, he thought Qiao Yuandong had something to tell her.

"Sister-in-law, do you have any instructions?" Xiang Xiukai put down his bowl and asked Xia Mang.

Xia Mang secretly glanced at the maids who were guarding the lady in the inner room, and then winked at Xiang Xiu'an.

Xiang Xiu'an didn't understand what was going on, but he still stood up and walked over.

Xia Mang waited for Xiang Xiu'an to come out, then grabbed him and left.

The two of them turned to the eaves in the corner of the yard. Xia Mang looked around to see if anyone was paying attention to this side, then he took out a neatly folded piece of silk.

"What is this?" Xiang Xiu'an was confused by Xia Mang.

"Look." Xia Mang opened the silk layer by layer mysteriously, revealing two small pills and put them in front of him.

Xiang Xiu'an wanted to reach out to take it, but Xia Mang dodged him.

"You haven't washed your hands yet, don't make them dirty for me."

Xiang Xiu'an: "If everything is ok, I will go back first."

"Wait a minute, this is the medicine that can cure the lady." Xia Mang stopped Xiang Xiu'an who was about to leave with just one sentence.

Xiang Xiu'an's eyes suddenly widened. He stared at Xia Mang without blinking, with an intimidating light in his bright eyes: "What did you say?"

Xia Mang was too lazy to explain to him why this medicine could cure the lady. She just needed him to believe that this medicine could cure the lady.

The most effective way is to move Xiang Xiukai out!
Since Xiang Xiu'an can accept the existence of Xiang Xiukai's soul, then it should not be difficult for him to accept that this medicine came from Xiang Xiukai, right?
Sure enough, after Xia Mang said that this pill was a elixir that Xiang Xiukai had obtained from the underworld, Xiang Xiu'an believed it without any hesitation.

He looked at the two exquisite pills with shining eyes.

It’s worthy of being a magical medicine from the underworld, it looks so different!
In other words, children are easy to deceive. If it were an adult, he would have doubted whether the medicine was poisonous.
