What surprised everyone was that the blood flowing out of Tian Guangsheng’s wrist was not bright red.

Instead, it was a little black

“This is?” Ji Zhao was also stunned!

Black blood meant… poison?

“Ah Tao, a short needle.’

Ji Zhao hurriedly returned to her senses and immediately handed over the short needle.

Immortal Crane narrowed his eyes and quickly pricked the veins on his wrist. In the blink of an eye, the bump on the Daling acupoint deflated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“Boiling water.”

After throwing the short needle into the boiling water, the hot water that was still steaming turned dark red.

“Drink this medicine.”

When Zhao Lanhua brought the medicine over , Immortal Crane hurriedly said to Tian Guangsheng.

“Okay!’

The bowl of black medicine flowed down his throat and into his heart. It was so bitter that it made him want to vomit.

“Alright.” Immortal Crane quickly bandaged his wrist. “Don’t touch water for three days. Also, you need to drink three more bowls of the medicine just now.”

“Thank you, Immortal!”

“Do you remember how you injured your hand?’

Tian Guangsheng thought about it carefully and finally shook his head.

It was not that he had not guessed it before, but this matter was serious. If he was not careful, not only would he lose his life, but he would also implicate the Lanhua’s family.

Therefore, he definitely could not mention what he had heard in the restaurant in the prefecture.

Seeing that he was unwilling to speak, Immortal Crane did not probe further.

“I don’t think it was an accident that your hand was injured.”

Immortal Crane looked at him deeply, then turned around and left.

Three days later, as the bandage on his hand was removed, Tian Guangsheng was surprised to find that his right hand had recovered to its original state.

His heart skipped a beat and he immediately went to the kitchen.

At that moment, Zhao Lanhua was kneading noodles. This afternoon, she planned to make the oil-splashed spicy noodles that Ah Tao had taught her previously.

“Father?”

“Lanhua, let me try!” Tian Guangsheng smiled and took the dough from her hand. He began to knead the dough.

Zhao Lanhua’s eyes reddened with excitement when she saw him pull out such slender noodles.

“Father, your hand?”

“It’s done.” Tian Guangsheng tried his best to calm his tone, but he still could not hide the excitement in the depths of his heart.

His hand had really recovered completely.

Hence, at noon that day, the Shen family tasted a bowl of extremely delicious oil-splashed spicy noodles.

When everyone heard that this was personally made by their maternal grandfather, they were all shocked.

“Thank you, Immortal.” Tian Guangsheng picked up the wine cup in front of him and stood up. Then, he bowed and thanked Immortal Crane with extreme gratitude!

“You’re too kind.” Immortal Crane smiled nonchalantly. “I only lent a helping hand because of my good disciple.”

“Ah Tao, you’re really our lucky star!” Zhao Lanhua said with a smile.

“That’s right! I think Mother is right too!” Second Sister-in-law Shen hurriedly praised. “In the past, I always thought that Mother’s noodles were super delicious. I’ve always wondered if Grandfather’s culinary skills were better.

Now, I’ve finally tasted it!”

Tian Guangsheng’s hand had finally recovered. Everyone in the Shen family was sincerely happy for him.

“Speaking of which, it’s going to be June 16th in a few days. Eldest Brother, Second Brother, have you prepared the things I asked you to do?” Zhao Lanhua hurriedly asked. ‘This time, we must let Third Brother welcome Ah Tao into our Shen family in a grand manner! ”

“Mother, don’t worry. Second Brother and I are ready.”

“The bridal carriage, the betrothal gifts, and the related matters of the banquet have been prepared.” Second Brother Shen put down his bowl and chopsticks and said with a simple and honest smile, “There’s only one problem left.” ‘What’s the problem?” Zhao Lanhua asked solemnly.

“Mother, since our family is welcoming Ah Tao, shouldn’t Ah Tao return to Pomegranate Village to leave for marriage?”

“But hasn’t the Ji Family’s courtyard already been sold?” Zhao Lanhua frowned and said worriedly.

“Mother, I want to bring Ji Chen back to Pomegranate Village tomorrow morning. I want to pay my respects to Grandfather,” Ji Zhao said softly.

“Alright, let Third Brother accompany you! ‘

“By the way, Father, didn’t you say that Pomegranate Village and our Shanghe Village are going to merge? Why is there suddenly no movement from this matter?” Eldest Brother Shen suddenly thought of another matter and asked curiously.

“A few days ago, I heard from Uncle Huzi that this matter is probably going to be difficult.” Shen Dashan put down his bowl and chopsticks and said in a low voice, “It was Official Ma’s idea to merge Pomegranate Village and Shanghe Village into one village. Now that Official Ma has been promoted, this new Official Ji is focused on policing the county city. I’m afraid he won’t be able to care about these things for a while!”

Everyone had their own way of doing things. Official Ji probably wouldn’t take it to heart about the policy that Official Ma had previously set.

Regarding this matter, Ji Zhao did not say anything. She was brewing a big plan in her heart.

However, that plan would probably be put on hold until after she got married.

On the 10th of June, Shen Yao accompanied Ji Zhao and her brother back to Pomegranate Village.

The current Pomegranate Village was becoming more and more dejected.

Most of the young people in the village had gone to the county to work, and the rest were old people.

Ji Zhao lifted a corner of the curtain and saw the old men sitting under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village.

She brought Ji Chen out of the carriage and greeted the elders she was familiar with obediently.

“Ah Tao is back?”

“Chenchen has grown so tall too?”

Ji Zhao smiled and distributed the pastries she brought to these kind and amiable elders. Then, she brought Ji Chen to Old Master Ji’s grave.

Probably because no one was taking care of it, weeds grew in front of Old Master Ji’s grave and it was very desolate.

“Grandfather, Ah Tao is unfilial. I only came to see you after so long.” Ji Zhao knelt in front of the tomb, her tone filled with guilt and self-blame.

At that moment, Shen Yao and Ji Chen were helping to clear the weeds in front of the tomb.

Ji Zhao placed the few snacks she had personally made in front of the tomb and lit up the incense paper.

“Grandfather, I’ve already acknowledged a teacher for Chenchen. Don’t worry, that Master Song is very gentlemanly, and he’s very patient with Chenchen. By the way, Chenchen’s paintings are especially beautiful,” Ji Zhao said with a smile for a long time, but her eyes unknowingly turned red.

The Ji Family was not a warm place for the original host.

However, Old Master Ji had given all his warmth to Ji Zhao and Ji Chen.

Unfortunately, good people didn’t live long.

“Ah Tao.” Shen Yao knelt beside her and gently held her hand. Then, he looked at the tombstone in front of him sincerely and said firmly, “Grandfather, I will treat Ah Tao well in the future!’

“Shen Yao, thank you.’

Ji Zhao looked up at him with a gentle gaze.

Shen Yao smiled back, his deep eyes still filled with gentleness and affection..
