Chapter 735: Chapter 729: A Poison Doctor

The parents at home would also secretly observe, only those who were absolutely obedient to the young lady would accompany her in marriage.

Among Madam Lu’s bridal maids, there was one who came from a fallen healer of the Dao Family.

This girl’s family had been healers for generations, but they were not purely devoted to saving people; they also enjoyed researching some abnormal things. After harming someone, their home was raided by the Governor’s Office, leading to the girl’s displacement. Later, she was bought by Madam Lu’s parents.

She knew some medical skills, was clever and adaptable, and quickly gained the trust of Madam Lu’s parents. Thus, she became one of the reserve maids for the bridal entourage.

Facing Lu Family’s future matriarch, the restless heart within her began to stir.

She started secretly poisoning Madam Lu according to a harmful family recipe. Madam Lu was in her adolescence when poisoned. Eating that girl’s poison, she began to grow more and more unusual, increasingly resembling a tomboy, even developing a beard and chest hair, features a woman should not have.

Her stature, too, grew unusually tall, towering nearly above the heavens from an already slender frame.

By the day she married General Lu, she had already taken on the look of a tomboy.

And among those bridal maids, one was already one of General Lu’s concubines.

Youyou listened intently, sighing deeply.

She was also quite curious about that concubine.

If her guess was correct, the medicine given to Madam Lu was likely rich in male hormones.

No wonder she seemed to have an excess of male hormones.

That Madam Lu could still give birth to a son under such circumstances was indeed a miracle.

Feeling intrigued, Youyou asked, "Do you have that medicine?"

She wanted to see just what kind of prescription could be so powerful.

"Yes, this one," Young Master Lu produced a packet of medicine, some pills.

Youyou: "..."

She did not believe she could guess all the ingredients of the pills just by looking at them.

"Is it possible to obtain the prescription?" Youyou inquired further.

Madam Lu said, "That woman is currently locked in the firewood room. If Doctor Gu wants the prescription, I will definitely obtain it for you. But she’s quite stubborn; you’ll have to wait a few more days!"

Youyou calmly replied, "There’s no rush, let me first examine Madam Lu’s condition."

"Of course, thank you, Doctor Gu!"

Youyou smiled faintly and said, "This is what I should do as a doctor, Madam Lu needn’t be so formal. However, I’ll need Young Master Lu to step outside and wait for a while first."

Lu Tianning nodded, reassured Madam Lu not to worry, then left the room and closed the door.

After examining her, Youyou mostly confirmed that Madam Lu’s condition was indeed due to an excess of male hormones, exacerbated by taking medicine during her developmental years, which led to her current appearance.

Now in her forties, her body had fully developed, and her bones had set. Even if the hormones in her body returned to normal, it was impossible to revert to her previous form.

Youyou had to share this truth with her.

"I will prescribe some medicine to help regulate your body. This medicine may need to be taken for quite a long time, so you must be prepared."

Madam Lu, reminded of her plight, wept and said, "Okay, I will take the medicine as prescribed by Doctor Gu."

"Hmm!" Youyou started writing the prescription and added, "Even if your body returns to a normal state, your appearance will not revert to its original form. However, once you are healthier, you won’t have to shave as often, your voice will no longer be rough like a man’s, your temperament will become more feminine, and your facial contours will gradually soften."
