"In other words, if you never found my mother, who would stand to benefit the most?"
It would definitely be Fang Hongyu!
Thinking of this answer, Fang Youling’s heart trembled, and her face turned pale, "No, Xiao Wu, your aunt, she, she shouldn’t be that kind of person."
That was the child she had raised with her own hands.
And also one who was connected to her by blood.
Fang Youling couldn’t bring herself to believe that her niece would treat her this way.
It must be Lin Wu who was mistaken.
Lin Wu knew that Fang Hongyu was Fang Youling’s only relative on her maternal side, so naturally, she couldn’t accept such a fact, "Grandma, don’t be so agitated, I am only speculating right now."
As she finished speaking, Lin Wu changed the subject and continued, "Grandma, what do you think of Grandma Wu’s medical skills?"
"They’re absolutely excellent!" Fang Youling said without hesitation.
Lin Wu shook her head, "I think she’s a quack."
A quack?
Fang Youling frowned slightly, "Xiao Wu, how can you say such things about your Grandma Wu?"
Lin Wu grinned, "Grandma, Grandpa’s condition is clearly a heart disease coupled with chronic poisoning. Yet, when Grandma Wu asked me what was wrong with Grandpa and I told her it was a heart condition, she didn’t correct me. That shows she doesn’t know anything about medicine!"
"Could it be that your Grandpa wasn’t poisoned at all?" Fang Youling asked.
Lin Wu didn’t explain, but instead pulled out the silver needle from Old Master Tang’s temple, "Look at this needle."
Lin Guixiang couldn’t help but gasp, "Xiao Wu, how did this needle turn black?"
Fang Youling was also very surprised.
The silver needle had been shiny and bright, but now, it was as if it were ink-stained.
Lin Wu continued, "This is the poison that has been drawn out."
It is well-known.
Silver darkens upon contact with toxic substances through oxidation.
This is also why acupuncture needles are made of silver.
Fang Youling fell into thought, "But Grandma Wu’s medical skills have always been very good, and Wu Medical Hall has had a great reputation over the years."
If Wu Muzhen really were a quack, she probably would have been reported by now!
But if Wu Muzhen wasn’t a quack, why couldn’t she see that Old Master Tang still had residual poison in his system that hadn’t been cleared?
Fang Youling’s mind was flooded with thoughts.
"If I’m not mistaken, she was testing my medical skills when she asked what disease Grandpa had." But what Wu Muzhen didn’t expect was that Lin Wu’s response was also testing her.
"Why would she test you?"
"Because from the beginning, she never intended to cure Grandpa’s illness," Lin Wu said calmly, revealing her conjecture, "Perhaps she was using Grandpa’s illness to hold you back."
"No, that’s not possible," Fang Youling’s face looked awful, "Your Grandma Wu shouldn’t be that kind of person."
She had known Wu Muzhen for so many years.
Their relationship was one of both friends and sisters.
She couldn’t believe ...
"You have years of friendship with her, and I too hope that she isn’t that sort of person," Lin Wu spoke loudly, but her words carried immense weight, "But have you ever thought about why she would deceive you? You’re so close to her, she should be the person who, apart from you, most wants Grandpa to get better."
Fang Youling found herself at a loss for words.
After a while, Fang Youling finally said, "But why would she do this? Xiao Wu, you just mentioned that she wants to restrain us, how? What benefits does restraining Grandpa bring her?"
If Wu Muzhen had really wanted to harm them, there would have been no need to save him fifteen years ago.
Fang Youling couldn’t find a motive for Wu Muzhen.
"I really want to know what her motive is. However, from the current situation, her relationship with your aunt seems to be much closer than you imagine." Lin Wu now had a bold idea, but proving it required Fang Youling’s cooperation, "Grandma, I want you to act in a play with me."
"Act in a play?" Fang Youling, who prided herself on having seen many people, really couldn’t figure out her granddaughter’s thoughts, "What play?"
Lin Wu smiled faintly and whispered her plan.
Fang Youling nodded, "Okay."
Although Fang Youling didn’t believe Wu Muzhen had ulterior motives, she was still willing to go along with her granddaughter’s plan.
Only by doing this could they prove that Wu Muzhen was innocent.
Half an hour later.
Old Master Tang slowly regained consciousness after the acupuncture treatment.
Seeing her husband finally wake up, Fang Youling was very excited and immediately held Old Master Tang’s hand, "Old Tang, you’re awake! How do you feel now?"
"What happened to me?" Old Master Tang had no recollection of his fainting episode.
