Chapter 338 Bee Venom Therapy
While waiting for the results to be released, Xu Weiwei was not idle either.
After several days of exposure to the sun, the feces of the Lulu beast had dried up, and the odor had completely disappeared, instead emitting a rich aldehyde fragrance. To be on the safe side, Xu Weiwei broke them up and exposed them to the sun again.
The dried samples and the clear liquid after boiling were separated and sent to the laboratory for testing.
The guards at the back of the mountain also found a wild beehive, as big as a water tank, surrounding a sturdy old tree. According to Xu Weiwei's request, they did not destroy the beehive, but only netted some bees and took them away.
Although she didn't understand, Miss Selvie was not a domineering person. She must have her reasons for wanting these things. It was just that wild bees were dangerous, so the guard couldn't help but remind her a few times.
"Miss, this thing stings you very painfully, please be careful."
Xu smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry. Were you injured when you went to catch them? If anyone was stung, you can come to me. I will treat them and provide compensation."
The guard was deeply moved. He thought the young lady was beautiful and kind-hearted, she was simply an angel!
"We're fine! Little bee, it's easy to take down! Hey, call us if you need anything."
Xu Weiwei came in carrying the net box, and Ryan came over chewing a cucumber: "What is this?"
He has been very idle these days, completely liberated after the exams. He spends every day at home playing with cats and dogs and chatting with netizens. Beta avoids him when he sees him.
Ganz guessed it immediately: "It's a bee, right?"
"Well, how do you know?"
Ganz pointed to his ears: "You can hear it. The buzzing sound of the bee's wings is easy to recognize."
Ryan rolled his eyes inconspicuously: What a show-off.
"Brother Gantz has a really sharp ear." Xu Weiwei said admiringly.
Not only the ears, but also the eyesight, smell, and hearing of the Gudel people are much better than ordinary people. It may be related to the living environment, and also genetics. She has been away from electronic products for such a long time, and she has never seen her five senses so sharp.
"What do you want bees for?" Ryan asked again.
Ganz answered again, "Is it to treat grandma's leg? I used to catch bees for the priests."
Ryan was furious: Didn’t someone ask you?! The zoo should let the peacock out and lock you up!
Big brother, second brother, why haven’t you taken a holiday yet…I need you guys—!
"You can put some diluted sugar water inside, and then find a piece of black cloth to cover the outside of the box, so that the bees will not die easily," Ganz suggested.
"Well, it's up to you."
The sound of chewing cucumbers disappeared. Ryan watched the two chatting enthusiastically, and he couldn't chew the half-eaten cucumber in his hand anymore: he was isolated...
Without waiting for lunch, Xu Weiwei asked the driver to take her to her grandmother's house. She had been going there almost every day and was familiar with the route.
My uncle and aunt are also at home.
Because of Xu Weiwei, Mrs. Capet was in a good mood these days, her words were not so harsh, and she was much gentler. The scene of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sitting together to play with the pet could also appear at home.
In the past, Jiang Linlin would hide upstairs, or simply live outside, believing that there would be no quarrels if they didn't meet.
McQueen was sitting nearby reading his emails. When he saw her come in, he said "Yo" and put away his tablet: "Come over!"
"Are you tired of running around every day? If it were you, I'd say you should just stay here. You've finished your exams anyway, and there's a room for you here."
"Okay." Xu Weiwei agreed readily and put the box on the table. "If I come, Brother Ganz has to come too. He is the one who knows me best, and I am worried about him staying home alone."
McQueen gave a short laugh. "What's the big deal? Just come and let him bring his big rice bowl."
Xu Weiwei couldn't help but laugh.
"Why is there an extra box today?" McQueen stood up and approached the things she had placed on the table. "The small needle is useless? This size must be for cows."
Mrs. Capet was so angry that she picked up the pillow and threw it at him: "Unfilial son! You are the cow!"
McQueen let the pillow fall on him and bent over to touch the box. Xu Weiwei reminded him to "be careful." McQueen paused, then pinched a corner of the black cloth and lifted it.
The bees that were originally resting were stimulated by the light and became active, flying up and down in the cage.
"Wow! Bees!"
"Why is it alive?"
Xu Weiwei covered half of the cloth to reduce the bees' aggressiveness, and then explained: "There is a bee venom therapy that is very effective in treating arthritis, spondylitis, sciatica and other diseases. Bees are needed."
"Did you learn all this from the priest on the planet Goodall? Is it reliable? This sounds more like a form of torture." McQueen asked doubtfully.
"It's reliable. Our ancestors were using it tens of thousands of years ago. Local residents have also tried it. It has factual basis." Xu Weiwei said unconvinced.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted you." McQueen raised his hands in surrender. "Then how do you use this? Just get close to it and let it sting you?"
Mrs. Capet had just gotten used to acupuncture for a few days when she suddenly got a stronger one. She felt very bad. Her face was visibly pale.
Xu Weiwei took out a thumb-sized glass bottle from her small shoulder bag. "This is extracted and diluted bee venom. We need to use it to test whether grandma has any allergic reaction."
Xu Weiwei dipped the needle into some of the clear liquid inside, then grabbed her grandmother's hand and gently pricked her wrist.
Five minutes later, Mrs. Capet had no other adverse reactions except a little itching.
"They can be used." Xu Wei said with a smile. "Do you have any rubber gloves at home? Help me find a pair. They should be harder."
The maid quickly brought her a pair of black shiny gloves, used by electricians, which reached to the forearm.
Mrs. Capet was very scared when she saw her making those preparations. She clasped her hands together and discussed with her granddaughter hesitantly, "Weier, grandma thinks acupuncture is quite effective. What should we change? Can we just use that method?"
Xu Weiwei refused bluntly: "No."
"Rheumatoid arthritis is a stubborn disease. Your knee has been in serious condition for so many years. Acupuncture alone can only alleviate the symptoms, but it is difficult to cure it. It is just that the weather is warm now, and the acupuncture treatment has been frequent recently, so the condition is temporarily suppressed. You will know when winter comes."
Mrs. Capet looked sluggish, like a child being lectured by her parents. Jiang Linlin was very surprised. The saying that there is always someone better is really true.
