Chapter 17 Bitter Medicine

Madam Si looked at Doctor Huai and asked, "Are you saying that the two young masters of the Liu family are dying?"

Doctor Huai nodded and said, "He has been relying on medicine for so many days. Yesterday, he asked me what is good for Master Chen to eat."

"I just said that the governor found a hundred-year-old wild ginseng, and it will be cured after three days of eating it. I only used a small part of this wild ginseng. I made the rest into pills for easy storage and handed them over to the governor's office."

"They could try to find a hundred-year-old wild ginseng. Maybe they could save the two children."

Old Madam Si was also a smart person. She understood what Doctor Huai said. If the Liu family couldn't find wild ginseng, they would most likely ask the Si family for help.

"Thank you, Doctor Huai, for telling us this news. I have watched these two children grow up. I hope they can overcome this difficulty."

Doctor Huai finished acupuncturing Si Tian, ​​looked at his leg, and nodded with a smile: "Second Master's legs are recovering quickly. You can try to put down the crutches and walk a few steps."

Si Tian looked at the two little guys next to him with serious faces. These two children were supervised every day.

Sometimes he had someone give him a massage, sometimes someone had someone soak his feet, and sometimes he was helped to stand up and walk. He never slacked off for a single day.

Juanjuan looked at Doctor Huai and said, "Grandpa Huai, is my second uncle getting better soon?"

"Yes! He will be well soon. You have taken good care of him." Doctor Huai smiled and touched the two children's heads.

These two children were very special in this Beiyang aristocratic family. They were not arrogant or overbearing, and they did not look down on others.

Madam Si asked the housekeeper to send Doctor Huai over, and Siming came back exhausted.

He hadn't been back for a while, and Curly's bird army helped him a lot and allowed him to make some preparations in advance.

He sat on the sofa in the living room, had someone pour him a cup of tea, and closed his eyes to rest.

When Madam Si and the others came in, they saw his tired face and asked, "Are you back?"

"Yeah." Siming opened his eyes, which were filled with red bloodshot.

"Dad, your eyes are as red as a little rabbit." Juanjuan looked at his bloodshot eyes.

Si Jinchen: "Dad, didn't you get enough rest?"

"It's okay, I'll go back and take a nap later." Si Ming smiled and rubbed the two children's heads.

The housekeeper walked in at this time: "Madam, it's Madam Liu's call, she sounds very anxious."

"I understand." Mrs. Si turned around to answer the phone.

Si Tian walked over to Si Ming and sat down: "Brother, are things not going well?"

"It's okay. We just encountered some troubles on the road. If nothing goes wrong, the first batch of food should arrive tomorrow." He leaned lazily on the sofa.

He looked at Si Tian's legs: "How are your legs?"

"You've recovered well." Si Tian replied with a smile.

After a while, Mrs. Si came back and sent all the servants out.

Juanjuan and Si Jinchen sat next to Si Ming on the left and right.

"The Liu family is here to ask about wild ginseng." Old Madam Si was sitting on the sofa nearby.

"Mom refused?" Siming looked at her and asked.

Madam Si turned to look at the others and said, "No, but I didn't agree either. I said I would discuss it with my family."

"These two little brats have always been rude and have never been taught well." Si Tian disliked the people of the Liu family, and he disliked these two children even more.

"You mean don't care?" Si Ming looked at Si Tian.

"Juanjuan, do you still want the wild ginseng you found for me last time?" Si Jinchen asked Juanjuan on the other side, half of his body passed over Si Ming.

Juanjuan shook her head repeatedly: "I don't want bitter medicine."

"Can you give it to your brother?" Si Jinchen looked at her with a smile.

"Brother, isn't your illness cured? Why do you still have to take medicine so hard?" Juanjuan looked confused.

Si Jinchen smiled and said, "Give Juanjuan some sweet candy."

Juanjuan's eyes lit up immediately: "Change, change, change, change for more candies."

The three adults of the Si family listened to the discussion of the two children and seemed to understand what Si Jinchen was going to do.

"Dad, since they've come to us begging for it, it wouldn't be nice to tear our relationship apart and refuse to give it to them. In addition to wild ginseng, Grandpa Huai has also added a lot of precious medicinal herbs to this medicine."

"We'll sell them two pills, and the price will naturally be as high as possible. If they think it's too expensive, let them figure it out themselves."

Si Jinchen still remembered how they bullied him and Juanjuan.

Siming raised his eyebrows: "That's a good idea. Haven't they always wanted us to beg them? Then let them beg us this time."

"There are only two pills left of this medicine. Mom and I took the rest, and two pills were left for my eldest brother and third brother to save their lives." Si Tian smiled faintly.

Since we are talking about it, this thing is naturally valuable because it is rare.

"Doctor Huai did help, and now we have an explanation for Achen's recovery." Old Lady Si said with a smile.

"Mom went to tell Old Madam Liu that she didn't know about this medicine before, and only knew that I gave it to you to replenish your body. Now she found out that there are only two pills left after asking."

After Siming finished speaking, he looked at the two children and smiled.

"Okay, I'll go and talk to them about this. If they really want it, they will come to us. If they don't want it, we won't suffer any loss." Madam Si got up and called Madam Liu back.

Liu family mansion.

Mrs. Liu hung up the phone, and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

Master Liu sat on the main seat on the sofa, looked at her and asked, "How is it?"

"There are only two pieces of wild ginseng left, but judging from the tone of the Si family, I'm afraid they are unwilling to give them to us." Old Lady Liu looked at him and said.

"I always told you not to look down on the Governor's Mansion, but you insisted on going against me. Now you know how powerful I am!" Master Liu was furious.

"Okay, what should we do now? It's probably too late to send someone to find a hundred-year-old wild ginseng." Grandpa Liu was extremely anxious.

Old Master Liu opened and closed his cane, then clenched it again. "I'll go to the Governor's Mansion myself."

After he said that, he asked the butler to prepare the car.

"Dad, I'll go with you." Liu Ruyan stood up at this time.

Old Master Liu looked at her and hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Let's go."

The father and daughter went out together and took a car to the Governor's Mansion.

Siming was forcibly dragged back to his room by the two children to rest. When Old Man Liu came, he was still asleep and could only wait patiently.

Si Tian chatted with him casually.

"I heard that the second master learned a lot during his trip abroad, and the business of this new clothing store has become so good that it's enviable." Liu Ruyan said with a forced smile.

"I was lucky, and I learned a lot of interesting designs. But our new clothing store has always had good business, but there's no such thing as a sudden surge in popularity."

Si Tian looked at her and saw a smile on her face, but there was a distant look in her eyes.

Liu Ruyan's face looked a little ugly. Ever since the Si family's new clothing store put out new styles, there were almost no customers visiting her store.
