In my past life, when I was going to the countryside, the only people I was worried about were my maternal grandmother and Zhang Ma.
My maternal grandfather came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and saved many lives. His children all followed in his footsteps.
My maternal grandmother was among the group of people who received special allowances later in life.
So even when the Shen family faced liquidation later on, those who had received favors from the old man in the past all came out to speak up for the Shen family.
Grandma narrowly escaped that disaster!
"Going to the countryside? Is there no one left in your family?"
"Does your scumbag father want to send you, a motherless child, to the countryside while you continue to keep the other kids at home eating all the food yourself?"
Shen Qingran was moved when she saw the old lady slamming her hand on the table.
The old lady truly loves herself!
"I won the lottery!"
"snort!"
Old Mrs. Shen dismissed it with disdain.
Shen Qingran guessed that her stepmother must have used some means, but none of that mattered now.
"Girl, come to the old lady's bedroom!"
Inside the bedroom.
Grandma Shen took out a small, exquisitely crafted box from a cabinet next to her.
"Here, take this!"
A seemingly ordinary necklace appeared in front of Shen Qingran.
This necklace is entirely gray and looks quite ordinary.
However, having lived through a lifetime, Shen Qingran knew that this item was passed down from the Shen family to the helmsman.
In my past life, my grandmother gave me this necklace, but I just threw it away after leaving the house without paying any attention to it.
Furthermore, they overlooked the so-called understanding that their grandmother had at the time.
"Ranran, this is a family heirloom of our Shen family, passed down to daughters only, not sons!"
"It's a pity your mother is gone. There's a great secret here; you must take it with you when you go to the countryside!"
Shen Qingran looked at her grandmother with eyes full of expectation.
Grandma Shen unconsciously tightened her grip on Shen Qingran's hand.
Shen Qingran nodded vigorously: "Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely protect this necklace!"
Grandma Shen nodded, her eyes welling up with tears as she looked at Shen Qingran.
This child lost his mother at a very young age, and now at only twenty, he has to go to the countryside alone.
That damned Chen Tang!
He didn't like this son-in-law at first, but his daughter liked him, as if she had been bewitched!
Afterwards, Old Mrs. Shen showed Shen Qingran some prescriptions from the small box.
"This is our Shen family's secret recipe, the formula for Baicao Wan!"
"This is the formula for the Six Emperor Pills..."
"This is the recipe for Wuji Baifeng Wan (Black Chicken White Phoenix Pill)..."
Shen Qingran looked at the writing on these yellowed old papers.
"Grandma, isn't Second Uncle the head of our family?"
"Shouldn't these prescriptions be left to him?"
Shen Qingran was referring to her second uncle, whose mother, Old Madam Shen, had given birth to three sons and one daughter.
This second son is Shen Yuxing, the current head of the Shen family.
When he was mentioned, Old Madam Shen said, "Let's not talk about him! Just remember, this contains the Shen family's most treasured possessions!"
"As long as we have these things, our Shen family will have a chance to turn things around in the future!"
Shen Qingran nodded vigorously, then discussed with his wife how to make proper arrangements for the elderly people at the pharmacy before leaving.
It was evening when I returned home from Grandma Shen's house.
No one was home at the time.
After entering the room, Shen Qingran took out a necklace from the small box and put it around her neck.
Looking in the mirror, I don't seem to feel anything!
No, remembering her grandmother's method, Shen Qingran immediately pricked her finger and dripped her first drop of blood into the necklace.
The next moment, something shocking happened to Shen Qingran. (This chapter has been finished. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
