Chapter 737: 195: Crazy Grandson Pamperer_2
“Yangyang, are you suggesting that your Granny Zheng has been poisoned?” Old Master Zheng asked.
“Yes.” Ni Yang nodded slightly, “That’s one interpretation. Granny Zheng’s cough has been going on for ten years, though there were times when she got better. It worsened suddenly starting from last year, didn’t it?”
“Correct.” Granny Zheng nodded, “It started from last year.”
Ni Yang continued, “Has there been any change in your diet since last year?”
Granny Zheng said, “Other than three meals a day, I drink tonic medicines, the ones your grandfather Zheng just mentioned.”
Old Master Zhao hurriedly asked, “How severe is Granny Zheng’s condition now?”
Ni Yang’s expression was somewhat solemn, “It’s serious but not too severe. However, if the toxins in Granny Zheng’s body are not removed in time, there’s always the risk it will deteriorate, putting her life at risk.”
Old Master Zheng turned pale, “Yangyang, do you have a way to detoxify her?”
“Granny Zheng, rest assured, there’s always an antidote wherever there is poison. Lucky for us, Granny Zheng came in time, if it were any later, it would have been a tough situation.” As she finished her sentence, Ni Yang added, “Every medicine has its toxicity, so during this period, do not consume those tonic medicines anymore.”
“Very well, we appreciate your help Yangyang.” Old Master Zheng nodded and sighed in relief.
Ni Yang took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it to Granny Zheng, “Granny Zheng, first take this detoxification pill. During this time, avoid alcohol, spicy food, raw or cold food. Also, don’t continue taking Ceftezole and Amoxicillin.”
“Okay.” Granny Zheng solemnly accepted and memorized Ni Yang’s words.
After examining Granny Zheng, Ni Yang took Old Master Zheng’s pulse.
Old Master Zheng’s pulse was very steady, but beneath the calmness lay subtle signs of trouble; damage had been subtly inflicted on all his internal organs.
Upon closer examination, one would find that his symptoms were surprisingly similar to Granny Zheng’s.
If the toxins in Granny Zheng’s body resulted from food incompatibility, then what about Old Master Zheng’s?
How is it that both of them would be poisoned at the same time?
Something did not seem quite right here.
After a moment, Ni Yang let go of Old Master Zheng’s wrist, “Grandfather Zheng, have you also been drinking tonic medicines recently?”
“Yes.” Old Master Zheng nodded.
Recently, Zheng Lingling had been making all sorts of tonic soups for him and Granny Zheng every day.
“Then who’s been making this tonic?”
“My daughter.” Old Master Zheng answered.
Ni Yang continued, “Grandfather Zheng, lately you’re having trouble sleeping and experiencing tinnitus and dizziness, right?”
“Yes.” Old Master Zheng nodded.
“You also have a layer of toxin in your body, similar to Granny Zheng’s condition.” Ni Yang revealed truthfully.
Old Master Zheng frowned in realization, “Is it because both Granny Zheng and I consumed incompatible foods?”
After all, they usually had the same meals.
“That’s indeed possible,” Ni Yang added, “But we can’t rule out the possibility of intentional poisoning.”
Intentional poisoning!
Upon hearing these words, both Old Master Zheng and Granny Zheng turned pale.
“It couldn’t possibly be intentional… could it?” Granny Zheng said.
Who would poison them in the Zheng Family?
The servants had no grudges against them, they would certainly not poison them.
Then there was Lingling.
But Lingling was their daughter, raised by them for over thirty years. Despite not being biologically related, they were as close as if they were.
Lingling certainly wouldn’t poison them!
Ni Yang’s tone was casual, “Human intentions can be hard to discern, sometimes prevention is necessary. The toxins in both of you seeped into your bodies without your knowledge. Modestly speaking, a less experienced Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner or hospital check-up wouldn’t detect it.”
Ni Yang had lived two lifetimes, she had seen all sorts of incidents.
Especially the conspiracies within wealthy families, which were even more exaggerated than the palace dramas in the future!
Sometimes, human intentions couldn’t stand close scrutiny.
Continuing, Ni Yang said, “However, I’m just raising a warning. Perhaps the toxins in both of you are caused by incompatible foods and are unrelated to intentional actions.”
After all, she didn’t have any evidence yet and couldn’t make unfounded accusations.
Moreover, she didn’t know much about Old Master Zheng and Granny Zheng’s family situation. If it turns out to be a misunderstanding, that wouldn’t be ideal.
