According to the investigation, that old woman actually moved into her daughter-in-law's house. That's really impressive! She infiltrated the family so quickly.
Mo Jing felt a little dizzy early in the morning, probably from a cold.
Mo Xiangtian broke his hand and should have been resting at home, but the company is in such a mess right now. If he doesn't show up, the company might really have to declare bankruptcy.
Aunt Wu was cooking orange peel soup in the kitchen. It was a traditional remedy from her hometown, and it was very effective at treating colds.
Grandma Ling wasn't idle either; she was also using one of the stoves in the kitchen to cook medicine. It was a mixture of white radish, cabbage root, and scallion whites boiled together.
"Grandma Ling, will this medicine work?" Aunt Wu had never heard of radishes curing colds before, and she didn't want her young lady to get sick from drinking it. She still thought her own medicine was more reliable.
"Why not? Back when I led troops to fight bandits... no, I mean when I was young, bandits attacked our village, and many people in the village had colds but no money to buy medicine. They all got better after taking this." Grandma Ling sighed inwardly. Luckily, my mind works fast; I almost gave myself away.
“But I think some medicines shouldn’t be mixed together, otherwise they will lose their effectiveness. Look, I’m already making orange peel soup, right…” Wu Ma meant that she wanted Grandma Ling to stop making it.
To everyone's surprise, Grandma Ling changed the subject with a smile and said, "Yes, that's why you can just drink the radish soup quietly. Your orange peel soup has a cold-preventing effect, so you can drink that too."
Aunt Wu's lips twitched; she was doing it on purpose.
Out of Wu Ma's sight, Grandma Ling smirked smugly. "Trying to outsmart me? You're still too green. You weren't even born when I was fighting alongside my husband."
Finally, both Aunt Wu and Grandma Ling served Mo Jing the medicine they had prepared, hoping she would choose a bowl to drink.
Looking at their hopeful eyes, Mo Jing couldn't bear to refuse either of them, so she forced herself to finish both doses of medicine. Then, urged by the two of them, she covered herself with a blanket and went to sleep, saying that after taking the medicine for her cold, she would sweat it out and feel better.
...
The doorbell rang, and Grandma Ling went to open the door herself: "Who is it? Stop ringing, it's noisy."
When the door opened, Han Meijuan's beautiful face appeared before Grandma Ling's eyes.
Grandma Ling was in a daze for a long time. When she came to her senses, her first instinct was to run.
Good heavens, what is this woman doing here? She must be here to arrest her.
"Mom, where are you running off to?" Han Meijuan narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at Grandma Ling, who was searching for a hiding place, and walked directly into the Mo family home.
Since she couldn't hide, she simply stopped hiding. Grandma Ling put her hands on her hips and looked at Han Meijuan with hostility, saying, "Run? Why should I run? I haven't even asked you yet. As a daughter-in-law, why aren't you at home fulfilling your duties and serving your elders? What are you doing here?" There's a tactic called striking first to gain the upper hand.
“Grandma is right, that’s why I came to take you back to be with you.” Han Meijuan smiled at Grandma Ling with her arms crossed.
"I don't need you to serve me here. You should go back to the compound and take care of your old man and husband." Grandma Ling shook her head, thinking about how to get rid of Han Meijuan.
Just then, the doorbell rang again. To stop Han Meijuan from bothering her any longer, Grandma Ling immediately called out, "I'll go open the door!"
