Chapter 763: 199: The Secret of Ginseng Soup_4
Dr. Jiang squatted down to pick up the shards. “Your mother’s health has almost fully recovered. Drinking things like ginseng soup has more harm than good. You don’t need to make it for her anymore.”
What?
Zheng Lingling looked at Dr. Jiang, thinking she must have misheard.
Dr. Jiang continued, “Although ginseng is a great tonic, it is also a medicine. As the saying goes, even medicines can be harmful. In short, just listen to me.”
Zheng Lingling nodded, “Alright, Aunt Jiang.”
Dr. Jiang patted Zheng Lingling’s arm, “I’ll be leaving then.”
Zheng Lingling quickly put down the shards she was holding, “I’ll walk you out!”
Dr. Jiang looked at the mess on the floor, “No need, you carry on with your chores.”
Zheng Lingling quickly asked the servants to mop up the spilled soup from the floor.
Ni Yan was standing behind a large antique vase, observing the whole scene.
The conversation between Zheng Lingling and Dr. Jiang seemed normal, but upon closer inspection, it was full of suspicions.
Was she overthinking things, or was there indeed something strange between those two?
Ni Yan narrowed her eyes slightly and tiptoed towards the kitchen.
The Zheng family’s kitchen was huge and it produced a large amount of daily waste.
When she arrived, she happened to see the servant throwing the shards into the bin.
After the servant left, Ni Yan stepped out from the corner, picked up a piece of shard, and sniffed it. It did smell like ginseng soup.
Was she really overthinking it?
Ni Yan didn’t linger and pulled a handkerchief from her pocket. She wrapped the shard in the handkerchief and left.
Nobody would think that someone would take away a piece of a broken bowl.
That evening, Ni Yan visited Mrs. Zheng’s bedroom.
“Who’s there?” Mrs. Zheng asked from inside the room.
“Grandma, it’s me, Yangyang.” Ni Yan responded.
The next second, the door opened.
“Hmm.” Mrs. Zheng further nodded, “I owe my health to her. Yangyang, Dr. Jiang has no children, she is quite pitiful. If we can help her in the future, we should.” ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
