Chapter 27: Do you believe these nonsense?
As soon as Xie Nancheng entered the door, he heard Aunt Yang say this.
Dinner tonight was quite quiet. My second aunt's family and my third uncle's family were not there, and even Mrs. Xie was not at home.
Only Xie Nancheng's father accompanied the old lady, sitting in the main seat, waiting for dinner to start.
"Let it sit there for now and let it air out," Tu Ran said.
"Yes, you want to eat it after dinner, right? Then I'll serve it out first." Aunt Yang turned and went into the kitchen again.
"Where's my mom?"
Xie Nancheng didn't see his mother and asked casually.
"She went to play cards with some of her friends."
"We only have a few friends, and we've been fighting for decades. Won't we get tired of each other?" Xie Nancheng smiled and sat next to Tu Ran.
As soon as I sat down, I could faintly smell the fragrance of herbs.
"Did you buy herbs today?"
"Um."
"Is it going well?"
"smoothly."
"Grandma, is this your first dose of medicine today?"
"right."
"Is it the one that Aunt Yang just prepared?" Xie Nancheng knew that there was something wrong with the medicine and seemed to be reminding her on purpose.
"You won't understand even if I tell you, so don't ask so many questions."
Xie Nancheng was shocked. Is this the way to talk to him?
"Tu Ran, have I been smiling at you too much recently?" He lowered his voice to a level that only the two of them could hear.
"Grandma, he threatened me." Tu Ran suddenly shouted.
Xie Nancheng: ...
"Nancheng, what are you doing again?" The old lady of the Xie family glared.
"He said I had a bad attitude, but I went out to buy medicine and boil some herbs today. I was really tired and didn't have many smiles to give him."
"Nancheng, could you please stop bullying your wife?"
"Okay, grandma." Xie Nancheng said with a smile and started eating.
During this time, he kept glancing at Tu Ran's profile, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
He reminded her kindly, wanting her to discover that there was something wrong with the medicine Aunt Yang brewed, okay?
As a result, this damn woman actually complained to grandma?
Your kindness is really taken for granted.
That’s great, then he said nothing and just waited to watch the show.
When the time comes and Aunt Yang is exposed, I will come back to settle the score with her.
Xie Nancheng held his breath and only ate a few bites of dinner.
"Where's the tranquilizing soup?" After dinner, a certain big man asked as usual.
"there is none left."
"I paid for it." Xie Nancheng did not forget to transfer the money to someone.
"I can refund you the money you paid." Tu Ran picked up the phone.
Xie Nancheng snatched the phone away and said, "You're being so pretentious today. Do you really think that my grandma is backing you up and no one can touch you?"
"You haven't cured my grandma yet."
"Don't forget that if you can't be cured, you will have to get out of our Xie family."
Tu Ran tilted his head and smiled, "Since I'm about to get out of the Xie family, what am I afraid of? Do I still care about you?"
Xie Nancheng: ...
"Young Madam, can I drink it after dinner? Old Madam's medicine?"
Aunt Yang wanted to get the matter done because she had received money from Xie Huailan, so she kept urging the old lady to take the medicine.
Then he came out from the kitchen carrying a bowl of medicine and placed it carefully on the coffee table.
"Aunt Yang, have a sip first."
"What?" Aunt Yang thought she had misheard.
"Well, for safety reasons, everyone who handles it has to drink a sip to prove the safety of the medicine."
"Young Madam, this..."
Aunt Yang always thought that this was for the old lady to drink, but she didn't know that after it was cooked, the young lady asked her to drink it?
"But Madam, you were also involved. You bought the medicine."
"Yeah, so I want to drink it too."
After saying that, Tu Ran took out an empty bowl and divided the medicine into two parts in full view of everyone.
Then he picked up the bowl and drank.
"Of course, there's no need to do this. We're not the royal palace. Grandma trusts you."
The old lady of the Xie family felt sorry for the child's cautiousness.
But in today's society, testing for poison is really unnecessary. Who would easily poison someone? We all live in a society ruled by law.
"It's okay, Grandma. I'd love to."
After saying that, Tu Ran drank up most of the bowl in one gulp.
"Aunt Yang, it's your turn."
"Young Madam, I... I'm not sick. Is it bad to drink Chinese medicine?"
"This Chinese medicine also has the effect of replenishing qi and nourishing the body. It won't hurt ordinary people to eat it. Aunt Yang, why don't you dare to take it? Did you secretly put something in it while I was sleeping upstairs?"
Tu Ran looked at Aunt Yang innocently, his eyes as clear as water, just like the little girl.
At this moment, Xie Nancheng understood.
This woman knows everything.
She didn't even have to remind herself.
At this moment, Xie Nancheng didn't know how to describe his mood.
He glanced at Tu Ran and thought, well, this damn girl has some acting skills.
"How is that possible? Madam, please don't wrongly accuse me. How dare I?"
"Drink it then, I've finished it all."
"Okay, okay, I'll drink it." Aunt Yang was actually nervous because she knew that this was not poison.
But the second young lady also said that it was not a good medicine and would aggravate the old lady's cough if she drank it.
That was still a bit risky, but she had no choice now.
It's almost like forcing a duck to climb a tree...
This young lady is a psychopath, absolutely.
"Young Madam, it's okay for me to drink it, but if we all drink it, what will the old lady drink?" Aunt Yang was still making her last excuse while holding the medicine.
"I've already saved some medicine for grandma."
"Huh? Where?"
At this moment, Tu Ran had an exquisite small glass bottle in his hand.
It contained a dark brown liquid as well, and she handed the bottle to the old lady.
"Grandma, this is your medicine."
“How thoughtful, it’s all packaged.”
Aunt Yang's face looked very ugly, and at this moment her brain circuit seemed to be insufficient.
Since the young lady had already prepared the medicine for the old lady, what was the point of cooking for three hours?
Just to test the medicine on the old lady?
Although she was very reluctant to drink, since the young lady had already drunk it, how could she still escape?
Aunt Yang could only close her eyes and grit her teeth.
Drink the remaining half bowl of medicine in one gulp.
The old lady of the Xie family slowly drank the bottle in front of Tu Ran.
"Grandma, I added a sleeping aid to this medicine. You should be able to sleep well tonight."
"Good boy, thanks to you."
"This is just the first one. We'll switch to other medicines tomorrow. The effects will be gradual, so don't worry."
"Don't worry, don't worry. We've waited for so many years, why are you in a hurry?" The old lady didn't know why, but she liked this girl inexplicably and had great confidence in her. Although this child did not have any medical qualifications and did not come from a famous family of traditional Chinese medicine, the old lady felt that she could cure herself.
After the old lady finished taking the medicine, Pinggu helped her go upstairs to rest.
Tu Ran also stood up and walked upstairs.
"So you know everything." Xie Nancheng sneered behind her.
Tu Ran paused and turned around, "What do you mean?"
"You know it in your heart."
"I don't have time to play word games with you. I'm going to take a shower and rest."
"Are you still planning on sleeping in the guest bedroom?"
"It's only been a few days since we got married, and you're already ignoring your husband? Do you think that's appropriate, Mrs. Xie?"
Looking at Tu Ran's appearance, it seemed that he was still walking towards the guest bedroom. Xie Nancheng felt inexplicably irritated.
"During the period of boiling the medicine, men and women are prohibited from having sex."
"This is the rule in our house."
"It's similar to bathing before worshiping Buddha."
Xie Nancheng stared at Tu Ran's beautiful eyes for a while before asking, "Do you believe these nonsense?"
Tu Ran: "In your heart, you've already decided that I'll be kicked out of the Xie family in three days. Why do you still care whether I go back to my room to sleep? What's the point?"
Tu Ran said it lightly, and she turned to leave. Her indifference and nonchalance were all seen by Xie Nancheng.
Perhaps it was the last look that irritated the boss. When had he ever suffered such injustice?
So emotions erupted instantly...
Xie Nancheng rushed forward with a sullen face and pressed her against the wall of the corridor.
The next second, before Tu Ran had time to struggle, he felt a chill on his lips... followed by a slight pain. Was he being kissed?
