scene of the fire, besides the traces of Gu Zhi leaving, there was also evidence of another person leaving. 。But at the scene of the fire that time, there were only Gu Chi and Cheng Ru'er. Cheng Ru'e...Everyone around tried to advise Madam Zhuo not to let Xu Zui'ning give her medicine, but Madam Zhuo was not someone who could easily change her mind.
Although she is now elderly, she was still Xu Zui-ning, the head of the Zhuo family in her prime. The power she possessed was beyond compare to ordinary people.
Since she has already said that she will believe Xu Zui Ning, then she will not easily change her mind because of other people's words.
Madame Zhuo raised her hand, signaling everyone to stop speaking. She said in a firm tone,
“You don't have to say anything more. I said I would believe her, and that means I absolutely believe her. I've had this headache for over half a year now, with no sign of improvement. It might as well be worth a try with this young girl's medicine; it just might work.”
The old lady's words caused everyone to panic, but seeing the old woman's uncompromising attitude, they dared not persuade her any further and could only nod in agreement with her decision.
Among all the people present, Gu Weiwei was the happiest.
Actually, the reason she was happy was very simple.
To have Xu Zui Ning come to diagnose the old madam was her scheme all along. If the old madam took her medicine and something truly went wrong, then Xu Zui Ning would be finished!
Thinking of this, she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the arm of Zhuo Hongling, who was beside her with a worried face. She softened her voice and began to persuade him.
"Hónglíng, just trust me, my classmate's medical skills are really good. Let her try it out, she won't disappoint you."
Zhuo Hongling was still hesitant, but she didn't know how to persuade her grandmother. At this moment, Xu Zuiying had already stood up.
Since the old lady is already willing to believe me, then please prepare a room for me to refine medicine. I will finish this medicine soon. As long as the old madam follows my method and takes one dose of medicine every day, I can guarantee that after three days, the old madam's headache will be completely cured.
Having said that, Xu Zui Ning directly ignored the distrustful looks from the people in the room, turned and left, going alone to the study next door.
After Xu Zui'ning entered the study of the Zhuo family, she immediately began to refine medicinal pills for Madam Zhuo.
Because of the Yaohun Stone space, Xu Zui'ning's speed of refining medicine was very fast. And the time inside the space was slow. It only took a few dozen minutes in the outside world for her to spend a few hours refining medicine inside. Xu Zui'ning quickly succeeded in refining the medicine that the old woman needed.
She called her servants and told them to take the elixir to the old lady's room.
The people standing in the room all had complex expressions when they saw these medicines sent over by Xu Zui Ning.
Even though he wanted to, Zhuo Hongling still couldn't help but open his mouth and offer one last piece of advice.
"Grandma, are you sure you want to take this medicine Maybe we should have someone double-check the prescription before you decide."
"Don't worry so much, didn't you just have this medicine tested Since it's been confirmed to be non-toxic, you won't die from taking it."
Grandma Zhuo was very displeased with her grandson's indecisiveness.
Although the old woman had decided to take the medicine prepared for her by Xu Zui Ning, the Zhuo family was a large and prestigious clan. As a noble family with a distinguished matriarch, it would be inconceivable for them to lack any form of inspection.
So, as soon as the medicine arrived, they had it checked for toxins. After confirming that there was no poison in the medicine Xu Zui Ning had prepared, they gave it to the old woman.
Qin Lao, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but speak up again.
"Even if this medicine doesn't contain toxins, you shouldn't take it indiscriminately. What if this medicine clashes with your physical condition, ma'am Even if you don't get poisoned, you could very well become even weaker."
If it were an ordinary patient, or even a slightly younger healthy person, Qin Lao and Chu Lao would definitely not object so strongly to taking these medicines at random.
But the old lady's status was honorable, and she was also advanced in years. This headache had dragged on for so many years, and her body was already very weak.
Even if this medicine contains no toxins, if its properties happen to be the opposite of the elderly woman's physical condition, taking it could very likely cause irreparable damage to her body.
So their faces were filled with hesitation and struggle, wanting to advise the old woman a few more words. But the old woman didn't give them another chance to speak. She decisively picked up a pill and swallowed it without hesitation.
"Wait, don't eat yet!"
Qin Lao, Chu Lao, and Zhuo Hongling, who were standing by the bed, were all terrified by this scene. They hurriedly rushed forward to try to stop the old madam.
But it was already too late, the medicine I had spoken of was already swallowed.
Old Madam Zhu sat on the bed and coldly glanced at the people around her.
"Anyway, I've already taken the medicine. Even if you stop me now, it's too late. From now on, just deliver the medicine to my room on time every day, and don't talk so much nonsense anymore!"
Although Old Madam Zhu was now elderly and frail, she had indeed experienced many storms in her life. Her words carried a powerful aura and an overwhelming sense of pressure. Everyone in the room, including her grandson Zhu Hongling, dared not disobey her. They didn't dare to utter another word and hurriedly responded meekly.
At this moment, Gu Weiwei was so happy she could jump for joy.
Watching with her own eyes as the old woman gave Xu Zui Ning’s, personally made pills to her, she felt an overwhelming excitement that was hard to contain.
This is great!
The old woman ate Xu Zui'ning's medicine. If something goes wrong with her body later, Xu Zui'ning will definitely die a terrible death!
By then, the Zhuo family would hold her accountable, and Chu Shao probably wouldn't want to protect her as a troublemaker anymore.
Anyway, from the very beginning, this Chu Shao was planning to have some fun with this monster.
Gu Weiwei's heart pounded with excitement. She followed Zhuo Hongling out of the room, her voice softening as she threw her arms around his arm and acted coquettishly.
"Brother Hongling, just rest assured, this old woman's illness will definitely be cured."
Gu Weiwei's voice was so sweet it could squeeze out water, men who heard her coquettishness would probably have their bones soften. Zhuo Hongling usually loved Gu Weiwei's coquetry the most, but now seeing her like this, he felt inexplicably angry. Zhuo Hongling pushed Gu Weiwei away with one hand and slapped her hard.
He glared at Gu Weiwei fiercely.
“You little wretch! I only agreed to let your friend come over to see my grandmother, but I never said anything about her prescribing medicine. If something happens to my grandmother's health, where will you take responsibility, you little wretch”
Now Zhuo Hongling is truly angry.
He agreed to Gu Weiwei's request, allowing her friend to come to his house to see his grandmother, only because he was initially tempted by Gu Weiwei's body and swayed by her sweet words.
But he had never even considered that he would actually make his grandma eat Gu Weiwei's ugly friend's medicine.
He never expected that the monster would actually gain his grandmother's trust and swallow the pills made by that woman with his own hands.
If his grandmother really gets sick because of that medicine, don't even mention he'd be labeled an unfilial descendant. Even his parents wouldn't let him off easy at that point.onger wanted to pay attention to Zhu Yuxin and walked away gracefully.Xu Zui'ning walked along the corridor, passing by private rooms without entering them, until she reached the end of the corridor a...
