Chapter 174 Problematic Chinese Medicine

[Oh shit, this is a bit scary! ]

After hearing this, the guests also felt a little strange.

What on earth did this person do? Even the coffin lid can’t cover it.

Zhao Xin frowned, "Aunt Li, was there any injustice in Old Man Li's death?"

Aunt Li shook her head: "No, he was taken back from the hospital, what injustice could there be?"

"So is it that the filial son's funeral was not properly handled?"

"That Mr. Li's soul refuses to leave?"

Aunt Li shook her head. "The Li family is the best-off family in our village. Their funeral was a grand affair, with a five-day banquet and all the necessary rituals intact."

"Anyway, everyone said that Old Man Li must have some unfinished business and refused to leave."

The guests paused and nodded slightly.

That would be easy if it were true.

As they were talking, they arrived at the villager's house where they were staying.

While packing up, Tang Yue noticed that Jiang Xu had remained silent. She asked curiously, "Master Jiang, is it possible that Mr. Li's soul has not left?"

Jiang Xu narrowed his eyes and nodded.

"There's a faint gloomy atmosphere in the village."

【That would be easy! 】

[Why not find the soul of the deceased, ask him/her personally what his/her unfulfilled wishes are, and help him/her fulfill them? ]

[This can’t be the easiest and quickest episode of the truth show ever, right? My takeout order hasn’t even arrived yet!]

Jiang Yu frowned slightly: "But don't you think that Aunt Li's reaction when she first saw us was a little strange?"

After hearing this, everyone thought back and felt that it was a bit strange.

In the many episodes of the show before, when the villagers saw them, some were excited, some were distrustful, but none of them were as strange as Aunt Li's reaction.

However, everyone soon found out why Aunt Li's reaction was so strange.

When everyone arrived, it was dinner time and the host family had already prepared a table full of food.

Seeing a young woman older than him also helping to serve the dishes, Zhao Xin quickly stood up.

"Please sit down first. Please sit down first. I'll take care of this."

"Be careful of the heat."

The host quickly helped her sit down and said with a smile, "This is my wife Wan Ying. She is six months pregnant."

Seeing the two people's happy faces, everyone said: "Congratulations."

Jiang Xu's gaze paused on Wan Ying, his eyes slightly fixed.

[Wait, Master Jiang's eyes look strange.]

【Something is going to happen again?】

Wan Ying had also watched Jiang Xu's show. Meeting her ambiguous gaze, she suddenly became nervous. "Master Jiang, did you see anything?"

The husband also became nervous: "What's wrong with my wife?"

Jiang Xu put down his chopsticks and said directly, "There's something wrong with your Children's Palace."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression froze.

The couple's expressions changed immediately.

There is a problem in the House of Children.

They only have this one child, who is still in the wife's belly and has not been born yet.

Master Jiang means that there is something wrong with this child?

The husband's face turned pale and he stood up suddenly. Just as he was about to ask how to resolve the problem, an old lady came over with a bowl of Chinese medicine.

Hearing Jiang Xu's words, his face instantly darkened, and he sternly said, "What nonsense are you talking about? We took you in out of kindness for the sake of the program crew, and you're not grateful, and you..."

"Our Huang family finally had a child like this, and he's fine. How could you curse him like this?"

Facing her rebuke, Jiang Xu raised his eyes expressionlessly, staring directly into her eyes with sharp eyes:

"The child is fine now, but after drinking this bowl of medicine from you, I'm afraid that may no longer be the case."

Wan Ying suddenly looked up and looked at her mother-in-law in disbelief.

"Mom, you..." What are you going to do?

A flash of panic flashed in the old lady's eyes, but she quickly calmed down and shrieked, "Where did this messed-up celebrity come from? He's full of nonsense!"

"I've been giving this pregnancy-preserving medicine to my daughter-in-law for half a year. Every prenatal checkup she's had is perfectly normal and healthy. Could I possibly have poisoned her?"

She looked at her son and daughter-in-law with aggrieved eyes, and the couple were also stumped by the question.

Wanying frowned.

Although the mother-in-law is a bit stingy and has old-fashioned ideas, she has nothing to say about her daughter-in-law, especially the baby in her belly.

Ever since the diagnosis, she has not been allowed to do any heavy work.

Our daily meals include chicken, duck, fish and meat, and every meal is very rich.

She even got a prescription for preserving the fetus from an old Chinese doctor. Jiang Xu said there was something wrong with the medicine, but she had been taking it for half a year and all the checkups were good.

Seeing the two people's reactions, the old lady glared at Jiang Xu fiercely.

Jiang Xu raised the corner of his mouth in a cold arc, and said in a deep voice: "The previous one was a medicine to maintain pregnancy, but this bowl is a medicine to change the fetus."

As soon as these words were spoken, the air suddenly became quiet and the whole audience was in an uproar.

[Oh my god, I told you there's something wrong with this mother-in-law.]

[There's actually such a medicine in this world! ]

[Ahhh, how could Master Jiang bring this up? Even though it doesn't sound like a good thing, it can't stop some crazy people from buying it specifically!]

The barrage was stunned.

Wan Ying was shocked and looked at her mother-in-law in shock.

At this point, she already believed Jiang Xu's words 90%.

Her mother-in-law was nice to her in every way, but she was biased towards boys.

During her last prenatal checkup, she was told that she had been sent to a different hospital. She later found out that it was a private clinic that specialized in determining the sex of the fetus.

After knowing it was a daughter, the mother-in-law kept muttering in disbelief: "How could it be, how could it be a daughter?"

There were also things like the Huang family's incense was about to be cut off.

After she found out, she called the whole family together for a frank talk.

If the Huang family does not welcome the daughter in her belly, she can divorce and raise her daughter alone.

Seeing her resolute attitude and her husband's support, the mother-in-law stopped talking.

Later, her attitude returned to normal. She thought she wanted to wear it, but she didn't expect that she had this idea!

No wonder Master Jiang said there was something wrong with her Palace of Children. She even had her children replaced. It would be strange if there was no problem!

The husband also looked at his mother angrily.

"Mom, you're crazy!"

"Does it really matter whether it's a boy or a girl? If you give Xiaoying this medicine, what if something happens?"

Seeing that she was exposed, the old lady stopped pretending.

"It's all because you guys are so useless. You're already so old, and it took a lot of effort to get pregnant. I'm afraid this is the only child you'll have in your lifetime."

"I, I just want a boy to carry on the Huang family's bloodline!"

"Xiaoying, drink this quickly. This is a secret recipe passed down from my ancestors that I bought from a master. It only changes the gender of the child. It won't affect anything else. Drink it quickly, and you'll be fine!"

Wan Ying didn't expect that she still wanted to deceive herself at this time.

He shuddered all over and took a few steps back.

Jiang Xu sneered, "The fetus-changing medicine, as the name suggests, is meant to change the baby in your belly, turning a female into a male. Sounds magical, right?"

"But how can such a good thing happen in the world?"
