Before Old Master Jiang could think further, Su Yan had already taken his pulse and asked, "Grandpa, can I take a look at the medicine you've been taking lately?"
Grandpa Jiang paused for a moment, then nodded, "Aunt Li, go and get the medicine that Dr. Jue prescribed for me."
After saying that, he looked at Su Yan with a puzzled expression, "Is there a problem?"
“There’s a problem.” Su Yan said thoughtfully, “I can feel that the toxins in your body have not been cleared. You have been conscious for some time now, so they should be almost cleared by now. But I can feel that your body is getting weaker and weaker and is not recovering in a good direction.”
Upon hearing this, the grandfather and grandson exchanged a glance.
Jiang Jingxing's expression turned serious. "Are you sure that's the case?"
"I wouldn't speak rashly without being absolutely certain."
Just then, Aunt Li returned with the medicine packet.
Su Yan directly opened the medicine packet to inspect it.
Mr. Jue is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, so the medicine he prescribes is naturally also Chinese medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine is her specialty.
She fiddled with the herbs for a moment, then paused and asked, "Aunt Li, do you have a prescription?"
Aunt Li thought for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, it's in the medicine bag in the kitchen. I'll go get it."
Soon, Aunt Li brought over the prescription that Mr. Jue had written.
Su Yan glanced at it and her face instantly darkened. She concluded, "Two of the medicines on the medicine packet are different from those on the prescription. The two medicines that were replaced are exactly the ones that are most important for clearing toxins. Grandpa's current medicine makes his complexion look better on the surface, but in reality, it is slowly depleting your health. Luckily, Grandpa has always been healthy, otherwise he would have been bedridden long ago!"
These words shocked everyone present.
Aunt Li suddenly thought of something and clapped her hands, saying, "Yes, ever since the old general woke up, he has been sleeping longer and longer every day. Sometimes he sleeps for fifteen hours a day. At first, I thought it was because the old general's body was too weak."
Su Yan frowned and said, "Grandpa, if you're not sure what I'm saying, you can call the doctor who wrote the prescription over to take a look. He's very experienced and will definitely see things more clearly than I do."
Old Master Jiang narrowed his eyes. "Who was in charge of dispensing the medicine?"
Aunt Li hesitated and said, "Originally I was the one who prepared it, but then the old man said he would prepare it. He prepared it twice, three doses each time. This was prepared yesterday, and I haven't drunk it yet."
As soon as Aunt Li finished speaking, Jiang Jingxing's coldness erupted instantly, freezing the atmosphere in the living room like an ice cellar.
Grandpa, that's his good father.
Grandpa Jiang was shocked to learn it was his own son. He was heartbroken but also deeply disheartened. "I'll have someone investigate this matter. Don't spread it around yet, and see if there's any misunderstanding. It's getting late, Jingxing, you should take Xiaoyan home first."
Su Yan was revising the prescription on the table. After finishing, she said to the old man, "Grandpa, I added three medicinal herbs. When the doctor comes, you can take a look and decide whether to use them or not."
Grandpa Jiang saw her sincerity and exclaimed, "You're a good girl. It's this young man's good fortune to have found you."
In the old man's eyes, Su Yan's demeanor and intelligence were superior to even the most carefully cultivated girls in the city.
"I'm just glad you don't mind me being nosy," Su Yan joked.
"How could that be? Grandpa is too grateful to thank you."
As he was speaking, Grandpa Jiang suddenly remembered something, took out an exquisitely crafted box and a red envelope from his pocket, and handed them over. "I almost forgot because I was distracted earlier. This is a gift from your grandfather to you. You must accept it."
Su Yan hesitated for a moment, then subconsciously looked up at Jiang Jingxing.
Jiang Jingxing nodded to her.
She accepted the gift and smiled sweetly, saying, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Grandpa Jiang was finally satisfied and looked at her with loving eyes. "Come visit often when you have time. If anyone bullies you, just tell Grandpa, and Grandpa will stand up for you."
"good."
Jiang Jingxing said, "Aunt Li, could you please take Ayan to the car to wait? I have a few words to say to Grandpa."
Su Yan glanced at him, said nothing, and went out with Aunt Li.
After everyone left, Old Master Jiang said directly, "You mean you're in charge of changing the dressing, right?"
“Yes.” Jiang Jingxing’s voice was cold and hard. “If he did it, I will not…”
"You want to uphold justice and even betray your own family, but once this gets out, it will not only affect your reputation but also your future. If your father did it, I won't be lenient. The moment you and Xiaoyan bring home a healthy baby boy, I'll kick your parents out and make room for my great-grandson," Old Master Jiang interrupted impatiently.
Jiang Jingxing: "..."
"Alright, you don't need to interfere with the dressing change. Hurry up and leave, don't keep the young lady waiting." Grandpa Jiang reminded her, "But let me make this clear, I've decided that Xiaoyan is my granddaughter-in-law. I'm giving her the bracelet your grandmother left behind. If it doesn't work out, you don't need to bring it back to show me if you date someone else in the future."
Jiang Jingxing's expression softened as he said gently, "Besides her, there can be no one else."
Grandpa Jiang hummed in agreement. "Then treat people well. Alright, go on your way."
Jiang Jingxing responded and then strode away.
Watching his grandson's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Grandpa Jiang felt a little more at ease.
Now, the only thing that brings him joy is his grandson's marriage.
...
at the same time.
At the Jiang family's doorstep.
When Jiang Changzheng and Qin Qin returned from the banquet, they saw two people standing across from their house as soon as they got out of the car.
"Isn't that Aunt Li? And who's that girl over there?" Qin Qin asked.
Jiang Changzheng said impatiently, "Why bother with all that? I'm so sleepy, let's go back."
"Wait a minute, isn't that our son's car? Could that woman be the girl he brought home?"
Upon realizing this possibility, Qin Qin could no longer contain herself.
Thinking about how her son brought a woman home without letting his parents meet her, Qin Qin's face was filled with anger. She walked over and scolded, "Aunt Li, why aren't you taking care of the old man at night? What are you doing out chatting with people?"
Aunt Li turned around and was startled when she saw who it was. She forced a smile and said, "Sir, Madam, you're back..."
"I'm asking you a question. Why are you running around instead of taking care of the old man? What if something happens? Will you take responsibility?" Qin Qin questioned her unreasonably.
Aunt Li: "Young Master is back. He asked me to come out and see the guests off."
guest?
Qin Qin's gaze immediately shifted to Su Yan, scrutinizing her as she asked, "You're the guest Aunt Li mentioned? My son brought you back? What's your relationship with him? Where are you from? How many people live with you?"
Because she was meeting her elders, Su Yan changed into a white dress with green floral print before leaving home, wearing a beige trench coat over it and paired it with white sneakers. She looked tall and slender.
Her fashionable outfit, coupled with her excellent looks and outstanding temperament, made her a beautiful sight to behold. She was also the most outstanding young woman Qin Qin had ever seen.
