Chapter 129 It’s better to rely on yourself than on others
"So, you really got a great deal." Murong looked regretful.
Then he looked at Lin Mo depressedly:
"Lin Mo, can you please stop being a spendthrift woman in the future?
Mr. Du was only poisoned by Qianji, a simple poison, and there was no need to waste antidote pills.
Why don't you wait for me to detoxify him and waste a detoxification pill?
Do you know that I can force the poison out of his body with just a few doses of medicine?"
The more Murong spoke, the more depressed he became. When he got excited, he couldn't help but put his hands on his hips:
"As far as I know, there are only two of these detoxification pills. Why don't you follow the others and hide them as heirlooms? Why would you use them? You're a waste!"
Lin Mo felt a little guilty after hearing what Murong said, and coughed lightly:
"Okay, I'll keep the remaining one as a family heirloom, is that okay?
Don't be so petty and make Mr. Du and the others laugh at you."
Then he smiled at Du Cheng a little embarrassedly:
"Master, don't take this matter to heart.
Well, as long as it is a rare herbal medicine or pill, in Miss Murong's eyes, using it is a waste."
"Isn't it?" Murong snorted coldly:
“The poison that the old man is suffering from doesn’t necessarily require this detoxification pill.
Other herbs can also detoxify, but it's just a bit more troublesome and painful, so isn't it a waste? You have to know that this detoxification pill can detoxify all poisons, all poisons!"
"Miss Murong, please stop talking." Lin Mo felt a headache from her nagging:
"I think as long as the medicine is useful and can save lives, it is not a waste.
Hiding the medicine is disrespectful to it. Using it where it is needed is the greatest respect for the medicine.
Besides, Mr. Du was in a very dangerous condition at the time, with the poison attacking his heart. I was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold on until you came, right? "
"Wrong logic." Murong despised.
Aren’t all the good things in someone’s home hidden away?
She just keeps moving out, what a spendthrift woman.
"Mrs. Xu is so righteous, and I am grateful to her." Du Cheng said with a serious face.
The detoxification pill is so precious that not everyone is willing to give it out.
Even if she has something to ask for, her sincerity is enough.
After expressing his gratitude, he asked Du Hengbai to take them downstairs for dinner and treat them well.
Soon, only Du Cheng and Uncle Du were left in the room.
Du Cheng glanced towards the door:
"How do you see it?"
"She's a courageous woman," said Uncle Du with a serious face.
"Being able to relax and work hard at the right time, being calm and collected in the face of difficulties, not being impulsive, and most importantly, being willing to let go."
He has seen many people who say one thing and do another.
Especially women, most women are stingy and selfish, and would never give good things to outsiders.
"Um!"
Du Cheng nodded tiredly:
"I agreed to cooperate with her, and I will provide her with an extra portion of the weapons our Du family produces in the future.
She is not an ordinary person. Just considering her courage to come to me, we can cooperate with her.
By the time she arrives in Mo City, I'm afraid the power structure in Mo City will be reshuffled and divided."
Uncle Du nodded, but his face was more solemn:
"Master, how does she know the details of our Du family? Could it be that our Du family has been exposed?"
This is what he is worried about.
Once exposed, their Dujia Village will be in danger!
Du Cheng shook his head, his thin face full of confusion:
"Probably not. How did she know the details of my Du family? You can try to find out later."
Uncle Du nodded, and after the two of them talked in low voices for a while, Uncle Du walked out.
Du Cheng glanced at the ceiling of the bed and then closed his eyes.
The Du family has been living in a small house for too long. Maybe it’s time for them to come out to the public.
And the living room next to it.
When Du Hengbai went to have the meal prepared, Murong approached Lin Mo and winked:
"How is it? How about my assist?"
She could see that Lin Mo was trying to get along with the people in Dujia Village, so of course she had to add fuel to the fire. After all, she had gained so many benefits from her.
Lin Mo chuckled, "Thank you."
She naturally saw that Murong had done it on purpose.
And this is what she needs now.
If she wanted to cooperate with the Du family, she naturally had to gain their trust.
The Du family's business has been able to run smoothly for decades because of their prudence.
The situation in Mocheng is not peaceful and weapons are strictly controlled.
If they could get weapons from the Du family, it would not only improve their ability to protect themselves, but also allow them to attack the enemy by surprise.
A cold light flashed in Lin Mo's eyes. In Mocheng, she must have a place of her own.
Murong sighed, "You are a girl, and you have planned so many things, does your man know?
Also, what do you keep your man for?
Let him worry about these things."
The smile on Lin Mo's face faded and he shook his head, "I don't like to rely on others.
It is better to rely on yourself than on others. I prefer to rely on myself.
Also, are men necessarily reliable? "
Murong was stunned for a moment, then curled the corners of his mouth slightly, "You are right.
Lin Mo, I like you more and more, what should I do? "
Lin Mo is embarrassed.
The man her nominal husband would love in the future said he liked her...
She always felt a little magical.
At this moment, Du Hengbai and Du Shu came in, followed by servants holding trays in their hands.
As they came in, the aroma of food wafted out.
When the dishes were served, the exquisiteness of the dishes made a dark light flash quickly in Lin Mo's eyes.
It seems that although the Du family lives in this corner, they have never forgotten their former aristocratic etiquette.
The Du family...
Never forget the heyday.
They are thinking about returning to the capital. Having ambition is a good thing, but what is scary is not having ambition!
Lin Mo picked up the tea and took a sip slowly.
"I'm sorry, it's too late and we're not well prepared. Madam Xu, you two should just eat some first. I'll treat you two well tomorrow." Du Hengbai said with a smile.
His grandfather was fine now, and his mood improved.
"Master Du, you're too polite. This is already very sumptuous." Lin Mo shook his head.
"Besides, we should go back and reunite with them after dinner."
"So urgent?" Du Hengbai was a little surprised:
"Why don't you stay in my Dujia Village for a few more days?"
"Young Master Du, have you forgotten that I am an exile and must rush back to reunite as soon as possible." Lin Mo shook his head.
If she doesn't go back, those who dislike her will start making trouble again.
"Don't worry, I will write a recuperation prescription for you later. If you follow the prescription for three months, I guarantee your grandfather will be in better health than before the poisoning." Murong said as he ate.
Well, the Du family’s food is not only exquisite, but also delicious.
"Thank you, Miss Murong." Du Hengbai hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
Being able to get the people from the Divine Doctor Valley to take action is a blessing that no one else can ask for.
As for Lin Mo and the others wanting to leave, he didn't force them to stay.
Then he immediately invited them to eat. When they were almost done eating, Du Hengbai picked up his wine glass:
"Mrs. Xu, this time it's all thanks to you. I'll toast you a glass. I won't say much about my gratitude; it's all in the wine."
After saying that, he drank the wine in his hand in one gulp.
"We have to hurry on our way, so I'll have tea instead of wine." Lin Mo picked up the tea and took a sip.
Du Hengbai didn't care and put down his wine glass:
"Mrs. Xu, can I ask you a question?
How did you know what my Du family does for a living? Who showed you the way?"
His Du family's business has never been public, and every transaction is done under a pseudonym in order to avoid exposing themselves.
They are very confident that they have not revealed any clues over the years.
But now she came directly to them to ask for cooperation.
This made them worry about whether their family had been exposed.
If it is really exposed, his Du family will probably have to give up this place.
How do you say this?
Lin Mo touched the teacup with her fingertips. She couldn't tell him that the reason she knew this was because his Du family was betrayed by a traitor in his previous life, and everyone in the world knew that his Du family was secretly engaged in weapons business.
Shaking her head, she raised her head:
"Young Master Du, this news came by chance. You can rest assured that the Du family is currently safe."
Du Hengbai's heart tightened, she was talking about the present.
Lin Mo didn't want to talk about this topic anymore and turned to talk about other things.
After Murong wrote the prescription for recuperation, Lin Mo said goodbye.
If you leave now, you can take a nap when you get back before setting off again.
Du Hengbai did not try to persuade her to stay, but instead asked someone to prepare a carriage and some food and provisions for her to take back.
"Mrs. Xu, I'm grateful for your kindness. As promised to you, my Du family will deliver it on time. Please rest assured." Du Hengbai made the promise with a serious face.
Lin Mo nodded, she believed in the Du family.
He glanced at the carriage, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed.
As for her partners, she couldn't just watch them go to ruin, as it would do her no good.
After thinking for a while, Lin Mo walked to Du Hengbai and whispered something in his ear.
Then, regardless of how ugly Du Hengbai's face was, he got on the carriage and asked someone to take them back.
Du Hengbai, with a serious expression on his face, stood there and watched them leave.
Only after the carriage had gone far away did he hurried towards his grandfather Du Cheng's room.
