Chapter 557 Participating in the Conference
Mother Lu treated her as her own family member and poured a lot of guilt and love into her.
This guilt is due to the destruction of the Jiang family.
She felt that if she had not done something wrong back then, the Jiang family would not have ended up like this, causing Jiang Ning to become homeless.
Looking at Mother Lu's expectant eyes, Mu Qing couldn't say anything to refuse for a moment.
Mother Lu murmured, "Xin'er is pregnant now, so it's better for her to not work too hard. Why don't I go find Miss Du?"
She had a good impression of Miss Du.
Lu Yunjue, who had been silent the entire time, said, "Don't worry, mother. My brother and I will take care of it."
After breakfast, the three of them looked at each other.
Hu Xin'er broke the silence: "What mother said actually makes some sense. We are relatively safe here. If we can settle down here, it will be very beneficial to Jiang Ning's growth."
"But Miss Du..." Mu Qing was truly disgusted with that woman. "I don't think she'll let this go."
Hu Xin'er, however, expressed a different opinion: "In fact, the Du family has had a very good reputation here for many years, and most of the Du family's disciples are honest and kind-hearted. If Miss Du was really a bad person, she wouldn't have received so much support."
"You just think too highly of her because she's pretty." Mu Qing disagreed. "I think she's a thousand times more cunning and treacherous than the eldest princess."
"That's because she's more experienced than the eldest princess." Hu Xin'er spoke the truth. "The eldest princess has been spoiled in the palace. Although she's quite smart, her behavior is always naive, and sometimes she's a little bit clueless."
However, Hu Xiner also has these shortcomings, so the two of them can become good friends.
The difference between Miss Du and the eldest princess is that she knows how to change her image and soften other people's attitudes unconsciously.
Thinking back on every time she approached the Lu family, from telling them at the beginning that this was a haunted house, to resolving the crisis at the comic shop, to telling them about the tunnel... every time she did so, she would first show goodwill to gain their favor, and then put forward conditions.
This makes it impossible to get angry, it feels like catching a slippery loach.
Hu Xin'er thought carefully and said to herself, "Maybe we can resolve this matter with Miss Du in other ways. We don't have to run away. After all, she is a smart person."
Lu Yunjue suddenly said, "It's always easier to deal with smart people than with reckless people."
Hu Xin'er patted her heart and chuckled: "I thought you were so angry about this that you couldn't speak."
Lu Yunjue's face froze: "Sister-in-law, you misunderstood. I just don't like to talk."
Hu Xin'er joked, "I see you're just like your brother. You're so cold until you meet someone you like. Maybe you'll become quite clingy in the future."
Lu Yunjue glanced at his brother with a rare look of disgust.
Mu Qing stared at Hu Xiner with approval in his eyes, and the smile in his eyes was almost overflowing.
"I won't be like my brother." Lu Yunjue's disgust was evident in his words.
Mu Qing imagined his icy brother saying sweet nothings like himself, and couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly: "That's too corny, there's no way that's possible."
Hu Xin'er looked at her husband and almost cried with laughter: "So you know you're so cheesy? Hahahaha..."
In the evening, after Mother Lu went to bed, Mu Qing pulled the last invitation from the door frame and asked, "Are we really going to attend that Miraculous Medicine Conference?"
Lu Yunjue nodded: "Don't worry, brother, Miss Du just invited us to attend, she didn't say she would force us to get married."
Mu Qing was still a little worried. He felt that this was all Miss Du's conspiracy and trickery. "Could it be that she wants us to let down our guard first?"
Lu Yunjue walked straight forward: "No matter what, she is a woman and she can't force me."
He was determined to find the medicine for his brother.
"What Yun Jue said makes sense, and since you want to go, we shouldn't stop you." Hu Xin'er advised, "Let's go, let's go. Maybe we can find some pregnancy-protecting medicine there."
This person is always like this, when he is looking for something for himself, he is not too serious, and always thinks he can wait and put it off. But when it comes to looking for something for others, he gets anxious and angry.
Mu Qing thought of the pregnancy-preserving medicine and started to move forward. However, after taking only two steps, he found that Hu Xiner had followed him.
Hu Xin'er blinked innocently: "What's the matter?"
Mu Qing advised, "You're still pregnant, why don't you just not go?"
Hu Xin'er shook her head decisively: "With the reckless nature of you two, how can I rest assured?"
Moreover, if you meet someone like Mr. Du at the miraculous medicine conference, only Hu Xiner can cure him.
Amidst Mu Qing's worries, the three of them arrived at the entrance of the Du family martial arts gym and successfully met Miss Du.
Miss Du had been waiting for a long time. She was dressed in a red and black suit, with a long sword on her waist and the word "Du" embroidered on her cuffs. She looked domineering and neat.
Seeing the three of them, she didn't argue any further and nodded calmly: "Since everyone is here, let's go."
Everyone took the Du family's carriage and arrived at the venue of the Miraculous Medicine Conference.
I saw that this place was in a valley. The entrance was a very narrow path, but there was a lot of secrets inside.
Both sides of the valley were hollowed out, becoming "shops." Outside each cave hung a lamp, some dim as a bean, some brilliantly lit, some even glowing with a faint blue flame...
"Although it's a rare medicine conference, the people from the underworld who come here will also bring some private goods, such as selling human bones... They say that these are medicinal ingredients or have miraculous effects, but we righteous people never touch these." Miss Du explained softly.
Everyone at the Miraculous Medicine Conference wore a black gauze hat. Before coming in, she gave the hat to Hu Xiner and others.
Hu Xin'er asked quietly, "People of the right path? Could there be some evil people here?"
Ms. Du didn't shy away from this. "There are both good and bad medicinal properties in the world. Good medicinal materials are known to the world, but bad ones are hidden and extremely rare. If those who practice bad methods don't participate, how can the conference be called a miracle medicine?"
Hu Xiner nodded, thinking that the Wanxiang vine had some evil nature. Zhao Si might have told Miss Du about the medicinal herbs, so Miss Du was sure that what they needed was here.
Seeing that she seemed to understand, Miss Du warned her, "These people may have the herbs you need. When dealing with them, you must not reveal your identity and must be extremely careful."
Although the Du family is one of the organizers, no one can guarantee the absolute safety of the participants.
