Ye Ling nodded and glanced at Aunt Mei. “Then hurry up and send the money over. Don’t tell me you don’t have money. I don’t want to wait too long. If you don’t have money, borrow it.”

After saying that, Ye Ling looked at Aunt Mei suspiciously, as if Aunt Mei was not someone to be trusted at all.

The tone in Ye Ling’s voice nearly made Aunt Mei feel like she might cough up blood. “Who did this woman think she was ordering around? And what was with her expression?” thought Aunt Mei.

Afterward, the middle-aged man tried to persuade Aunt Mei as he pulled her away.

The individual Aunt Mei had hired hadn’t expected such a bizarre occurrence during their visit to the pharmacy. He sighed internally as he swept up the grass and turned to leave.

The onlookers, having witnessed the spectacle, were somewhat excited. They planned to share what they saw at the pharmacy’s entrance with their family and friends upon returning home. Gradually, everyone dispersed.

A woman carrying a basket walked back with her son and spoke to another woman nearby. “Do you think Aunt Mei’s daughter-in-law is possessed by a ghost? Wasn’t she supposed to have died a long time ago? So, is the current Ah Hui a human or a ghost?”

“I’m not sure, but I think Ye Ling is quite powerful. Ah Hui was lying motionless on the straw mat, and when Ye Ling touched her in a few spots, Ah Hui woke up. It’s uncanny!”

“That’s right. If Ah Hui was possessed, then didn’t Ye Ling manage to control that spirit? She wanted Ah Hui to wake up, and indeed, Ah Hui did wake up.

Could it be that Ye Ling is more potent than the witch doctor Aunt Mei hired?”

The two of them fervently discussed the matter, even disregarding their dry mouths.

Suddenly, the young boy between them exclaimed, “That’s not it! I saw that pretty lady give Ma Biao’s wife something to eat. It’s that thing that woke Ma Biao’s wife up!”

“Really?” The two women were shocked by the young boy’s words. “Really?” the boy’s mother asked urgently, “Did you see clearly?”

The young boy vigorously nodded his head.

The young boy was rather short, and his positioning at the time allowed him to witness Ye Ling inserting something into Ah Hui’s mouth while prying it open.

The young boy’s mother speculated in shock, saying, “Could it be that Ah Hui wasn’t possessed by a ghost, but rather Ye Ling revived her? Does that mean Ye Ling has the power to bring the dead back to life? My goodness!”

After the onlookers dispersed, Ye Ling and Yun Jie assisted Ah Hui into the pharmacy. Yun Jie headed to the kitchen to boil water while Ye Ling provided Ah Hui with some easily digestible snacks.

Ah Hui didn’t glance at the pastries but instead looked at Ye Ling with teary eyes.

Ye Ling smiled and patted Ah Hui’s head. “Alright, no need to thank me. Eat something first. However, your stomach is still weak, so you can only have a little.”

Ah Hui nodded vigorously and then eagerly chewed and swallowed the pastry.

After Ah Hui finished eating the pastries, Ye Ling handed her a bowl of medicine that smelled a little bitter. Ah Hui didn’t even frown as she finished the bowl of medicine in one go.

Afterward, Yun Jie finished boiling the water.

Ye Ling turned to Ah Hui. “You’re still quite weak. Can you manage to bathe yourself? If not, I can help. Don’t worry about it.”

Ah Hui’s face immediately reddened. She nodded vigorously, then shook her head. “No need, I can do it myself.”

Ye Ling nodded and handed Ah Hui a set of clean, oversized clothes. “This is my clothes. They might be a bit big, but you can make do with it for now.”

Ah Hui went to take a shower. Yun Jie promptly sat beside Ye Ling and couldn’t resist touching Ye Ling’s arm. “Can you tell me now? What happened? I don’t believe in ghostly possessions.”

Ye Ling smiled and replied, “Of course, it wasn’t a ghostly possession. Yesterday at Aunt Mei’s house, I took the chance to give Ah Hui a pill and told her to consume it. The pill’s formula has been passed down in my family, but it’s not for healing or saving lives.”

Yun Jie was astonished. “Could it be…”

Ye Ling seemed to anticipate Yun Jie’s thoughts and nodded. “The pill’s effect is to induce a state of apparent death. According to our family’s medical records, this medicine was developed by an ancestor who was once a royal physician in the palace. His knowledge of medicine was unparalleled.”

Yun Jie’s eyes widened. “My goodness, I’ve truly learned something. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed such a medicine existed..”
