"By the way, maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother, this is a gift I brought for you. It's all medicinal herbs. You can keep it for future use."
Lin Yuxin asked Xiaodie to give her the bundle, and after she took the bundle, she opened it and handed it to her grandmother.
Fang Lan took it and opened it. She saw that they were all common herbs, but Lin Yuxin had written the name, purpose, and dosage of each one on a small piece of paper. She was very meticulous.
But when she turned the page to the end, she saw something wrapped in cloth inside the bundle. Curious, she took it out and asked:
"What's this?"
Fang Lan curiously pulled on the small package in her hand and asked Lin Yuxin.
"It's just some medicinal herbs. Grandmother can open it and see if she likes it."
Lin Yuxin answered with a smile.
Seeing her say that, Fang Lan smiled and opened the cloth.
There were still two ginseng roots lying inside, quite large, and a lingzhi mushroom.
"this…?"
"These are century-old ginseng and lingzhi that I picked myself. I hope my grandmother likes them."
Lin Yuxin explained to her grandmother.
Looking at the century-old ginseng in her hand, with soil still on it, Fang Lan knew that the ginseng must have been dug up not long ago.
Fang Lan was quite surprised. Moreover, such large, century-old ginseng is rare and priceless. Besides, she gave away two, plus the lingzhi mushroom, so this gift was not exactly cheap.
Fang Lan was very happy that her granddaughter still had this thought.
"Okay, Grandma will accept it. Thank you for preparing these."
Fang Lan patted Lin Yuxin's hand, looked at her with satisfaction, and said,
"It's all I should do."
Hopefully, the General's Mansion can weather this crisis safely after the state banquet; otherwise, we'll have to prepare some medicine to stop the bleeding and heal the wounds. I wonder what the Regent is planning to do!
[I should have asked more questions last night. Now he won't let me get involved, and I can only wait. If the assassination at the state banquet succeeds, the regent will fall, and Qi will rise up in rebellion.]
[Then my maternal grandfather will definitely go to the battlefield. This general's mansion has the old, the young, and several women; there are practically no people who can actually go to the battlefield. So this time, going to the battlefield can be considered sending him to his death.]
【This is worrying! But I still need to find a way to remind my maternal grandfather, just in case. If things don't go smoothly with the Regent, the General's Mansion should have a backup plan. It's best to make plans early!】
Lin Yuxin didn't show her worry on her face.
Zhao Shijie was extremely shocked to hear Lin Yuxin's inner thoughts. Did this girl even know what she was saying? What assassination attempt at a state banquet, what uprising in Qi? Their general's mansion would never return.
However, Zhao Shijie was already quite old, and after a few breaths, he returned to normal and quietly listened to Lin Yuxin's thoughts.
Zhao Hanyue knew about this. She came back this time to tell her father about it on behalf of her daughter, so that he could make plans in advance.
The group chatted for a while, and Zhao Hanyue gave her mother a meaningful look, which Fang Lan understood immediately.
"Alright, Chenxi, you're the older brother, take Yuxin out for a walk."
Fang Lan spoke up.
"yes!"
Zhao Chenxi clasped his hands in response, then said to Lin Yuxin:
"Come on, Yuxin, let me show you around the mansion."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Cousin Chenxi!"
Lin Yuxin glanced at Zhao Hanyya, then stood up, bowed to the elders, and followed Zhao Chenxi out.
Now is not the time to discuss serious matters; it seems I need to find an opportunity to speak with my grandfather privately.
Lin Yuxin walked along, trying to come up with a solution.
Seeing this, the other cousins followed suit. After all, they had never had a younger sister before, and this cousin had finally come back, so they had to take good care of their relationship!
Grandfather was here just now, and they were all as well-behaved as quails. Now that they've finally come out, they can't help but show off in front of their little sister!
So the brother and sister walked out in a grand procession.
"You should all go back now!"
Fang Lan drove away her other sons and daughters-in-law.
After everyone had left, only the two elders and Zhao Hanyue remained.
"Han Ya, is something the matter?"
Fang Lan looked at her daughter and hurriedly asked.
"Father, Mother, I want a divorce!"
Zhao Hanyue took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"What? Why? Everything was fine before!"
When Fang Lan heard that her daughter wanted a divorce, she was so shocked that she couldn't sit still. In today's society, divorce is a very shameful thing, unless something truly unforgivable has happened.
"Did that kid do something to offend you? I'll go kill him right now. Does he want to bully my daughter? Does he want to die?"
Zhao Shijie could no longer maintain his fierce demeanor; his manic nature was exposed, and he immediately stood up, ready to storm out in a rage.
"Old man, sit down and listen to what your daughter has to say?"
Fang Lan grabbed Zhao Shijie's hand and forcefully pulled him back.
"Hmph, you tell me, I want to see how this brat has wronged Han Ya."
With Fang Lan holding him back, Zhao Shijie calmed down considerably. The Zhao family was known for protecting their own, and no one could bully a member of the Zhao family.
"Mother, I only found out recently that Lin Xiong'an is a beast...!"
Zhao Hanyue sat to the side and slowly began to recount everything she had found out during this period. She spoke calmly, as if she were talking about something that wasn't her own business.
But after they finished speaking, the two old people were so angry that they couldn't speak.
"That beast Lin Xiong'an, I felt something was off about him from the beginning, and it turned out he really was. That kind of beast deserves to go to hell, I'm going to kill him!"
