Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Knocked Out with a Chop of the Hand

Meanwhile, at the Zhiqing Point, the naive Ye Wenhui was also successfully tricked by Ye Wenjuan and lured out.

Initially, Ye Wenjuan had approached her, saying, ”Sister Wenhui, someone just came by with a message. They said Yunyi twisted her ankle by the Cypress Tree and wants you to go over.”

Ye Wenhui was skeptical. ”She’s off today. Why would she go out for no reason? Who do you think you’re kidding?”

Ye Wenjuan’s heart gave a lurch. ”Believe it or not, I’ve delivered the message.”

With that, she turned and walked off.

Ye Wenhui, seeing that Ye Wenjuan didn’t press further, still felt a little uneasy. She decided to go take a look—after all, what could possibly happen in broad daylight?

Afraid Ye Wenjuan was tricking her, she even went to Yunyi’s small courtyard first. When she saw the gate was barred by a formidable lock, she began to believe Ye Wenjuan’s words and hurried towards the large Cypress Tree in the area behind it.

However, just as she was nearing the spot, she remembered the group’s specific notice forbidding everyone from wandering around. Seeing no one near the Cypress Tree from a distance, she considered turning back.

But in that moment of distraction, she failed to hear the movement behind her. Before she could turn, she was knocked unconscious by a chop to the back of her neck.

Yunyi emerged from her space. Without heading outside immediately, she first released her spiritual power to see who was knocking at the door.

She saw Nurse Chen from the health clinic standing there.

After stepping out, she still called, ”Who is it?”

Nurse Chen sounded anxious. ”Doctor Chu, many pregnant women have arrived at the health clinic. Doctor Qiu sent me to get you.”

Yunyi quickly opened the door. Already aware of the situation and with her mind on what needed to be done, she didn’t deliberately ask for details.

Locking the main door behind her, she said, ”Let’s go.”

As soon as Yunyi entered the health clinic, Doctor Qiu approached her. ”Doctor Chu, quickly, come see what’s wrong with them.”

Doctor Chu practiced Western medicine. He was truly baffled that these pregnant women had all flocked in for consultations at once, and their symptoms appeared to be very similar.

Shortly after, people from the group leadership also hurried over.

Yunyi had already changed her clothes. Seeing Granny Juanzi and her daughter-in-law there as well, she couldn’t help but approach them. ”Why are you two here as well?”

Granny Juanzi supported her daughter-in-law, her face etched with worry. ”She woke up and had some chicken soup. Not long after, she started complaining of stomach pain. I was worried, so I brought her. Besides, we were already planning for her to stay at the health clinic to await labor.”

Yunyi first checked her pulse and found everything normal. ”It’s nothing serious, likely just contractions. Let’s get her admitted. No need to be crowded in here.”

Yunyi then checked the pulse of each pregnant woman who had arrived, while Nurse Chen followed behind to record their information. She found that only two of them had not been poisoned; it was possible the group’s recent thorough investigation had frightened them, unsettling their pregnancies.

Yunyi prescribed Chinese medicine for them, instructing them to get the herbs and decoct them at home.

However, the families of these two women were unwilling to leave the health clinic, so a nurse had to arrange rooms for them.

For the remaining nine pregnant women, Yunyi tailored their treatment to the severity of their conditions. However, she did not use the Spiritual Spring from her space this time. Instead, she exclusively used acupuncture to expel the toxins, followed by bloodletting. By the time she had finished, all these pregnant women were also comfortably settled.

The Public Security Team had already openly intervened, but they did not release the information that the pregnant women had been detoxified. They only announced that Doctor Qiu and Doctor Chu were currently discussing treatment plans.

Furthermore, the Public Security Team stationed guards at the entrance to the health clinic, forbidding anyone from entering without permission. Even those coming for medical consultations were not permitted to enter the rear ward area. The entrance leading to the wards was also guarded, all to create a tense atmosphere for anyone attempting to snoop for information.
