In fact, through the past few days of refining medicine for Feng Yu, Mo Zhu had also sensed that although she was more proficient in her medical skills than others, she still did not have 100% confidence in treating some special poisons.
Only by researching the use and effects of these herbs would she be able to better use the methods of treating and saving people in the ancient books to the fullest in modern society.
âWhen she thought of this, Mo Zhuâs eyes suddenly carried a faint layer of mist. If her medical skills could be a little more exquisite, perhaps her grandmother wouldnât have been poisoned for so many years and died. If she had obtained these spirit herbs a little earlier and developed the antidote earlier,
her grandmother would definitely still be alive and well and accompanying her now.
âWhen Father Meng heard Mo Zhuâs words, he waved his hand in disagreement and rejected her with a serious expression. âMs. Mo, youâre treating me like an outsider by saying this. The mission of the descendants of my Immortal Medicine Mountain to survive in the world is to provide spirit herbs for the
descendants of the Guo family. Now that youâre Guo Qingâs main disciple, youâre also a member of the Guo family. Itâs my duty to provide you with the herbs. How can I accept your money?â
Mo Zhu frowned and asked in confusion, âYou mean to give me these expensive herbs for free in the name of the Immortal Medicine Mountain?â
After a pause, she shook her head with a firm expression. âNo, if someone with ill intentions finds out about this, the entire Meng family will be implicated if the news of you providing me with the herbs spreads. This is not appropriate!â
Upon hearing this, Father Meng gritted his teeth with determination and said, âMs. Mo, you donât have to worry. I
Before he could finish, as if he had guessed what he wanted to say, Huo Xuan raised his hand and interrupted Father Meng, âUncle Meng, we all know your intentions, but why donât you think of this in a different way? Since you have already recognized the identity of Mo Zhu as the Guo familyâs heir, then
the herbs you provide for her will be in her hands. Itâs the same if she pays for them. This way, it wonât violate the mission and promise of Immortal Medicine Mountain, but it can also protect you and your family. Why not?â
Father Meng lowered his eyes and was silent for a few seconds, unable to make a decision.
Coincidentally, at this moment, Mother Meng could not find anyone anywhere and guessed that everyone might be in the courtyard. She thoughtfully pushed open the glass door with the teacups and small pot in her hands and walked in.
After standing at the door for a while, she had also heard a little about the matter from Father Mengâs words. She placed the teacup on the small table and poured tea as she said kindly, âRanranâs father, just listen to this child. Even if we donât think for ourselves, we have to think for Ranran. Besides, if
anything happens to us, the spirit herbs in the Immortal Medicine Mountain will really be lost. In order to plant the herbs for the Guo familyâs descendants for a longer time, this is the best idea!â
Mother Meng had a point and Father Meng took her words to heart. A moment later, as if he had figured it out, Father Meng sighed and agreed, âAlright, weâll do as you say. As long as the herbs are given to the Guo family in the end, I wonât be so particular about it. However, you donât have to give me too
much money. Unnecessary trouble may arise if you give me too much.â
âWhen Mo Zhu heard this, she saw that the business deal was done. She immediately stood up and bowed to Father Meng respectfully, thanking him very politely.
After the matter of the herbs came to an end, Father Meng and Mother Meng brought everyone back to the living room, Because they had been hiding these things from Meng Ran previously, before they left the courtyard, Father Meng specially emphasized to everyone that they had to keep it a secret
from the girl.
At this moment, Meng Ran was being instructed by Mother Meng to prepare fruits for the few of them. She was not very interested in the herbs planted in the courtyard at home. When she saw Mo Zhu walk out, the girl walked up to her happily with the fruit plate that she had prepared in her hands. As
she handed Mo Zhu a toothpick, she asked happily, âSister Mo, are there any herbs you like in the courtyard? Tell me which you like. Iâl go and pluck a basket for you and place it in the car.â
After saying this, her eyes darted around before she leaned close to Mo Zhu and lowered her voice. âSister Mo, if you donât know those symptoms, you can tell me about them, Iâll ask Dad later. He definitely knows what medicine is useful to you!â
Now, in Meng Ranâs eyes, Mo Zhu had already become like her family. Not to mention pulling out a basket of herbs for her, even if the girl wanted a car, she could think of ways to make her father agree.
When Mo Zhu heard Meng Ranâs words, she was amused. âWhat are you thinking about every day? Why would I want a basket of medicine if Iâm not sicl
Meng Ran touched her head in confusion. She frowned and asked, âBut Sister Mo, arenât you having sleeping problems? I think your dark circles are almost up to your chin
When Mo Zhu heard this, she raised her eyebrows lightly and replied, âDonât think too much. Iâm fine..â
